Chapter 1283: Chapter 1284 You Come, I Go Chapter 1283: Chapter 1284 You Come, I Go Monk Wuyan departed after the killing.
Just moments later, another person slowly entered from outside of the Demon Sealing Sect's grand hall.
His eyes flickered with a blood-red glow, and a surge of Blood Qi enveloped his body as if he had just emerged from a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood.
“Xueyuan!”
“What are you doing here, seeking death?”
“The Elder of the Blood Demon Sect actually came here in person, really, heaven gives you a path yet you chose the gateless hell to enter yourself, seize him!”
Seeing the newcomer, the elders inside the hall felt like facing a great enemy, with pitch-black sword lights flickering above their heads, terrible auras sweeping across, ready to strike at any moment.
“All of you shut up, listen to me!”
Xueyuan let out a cold snort, and with a gloomy voice, pressed his hands into the void, causing the flowing auras around the grand elders inside the hall to suddenly stiffen and freeze.
The elders of the Demon Sealing Sect all possess only Half-Saint Cultivation Level, with very few in the Saint Realm, a level below the Blood Demon Sect. This was also why they seldom provoked the Demon Sealing Sect. Though their strong are elite, they are few in number and can't compete in numbers.
“Elder Xueyuan, what brings you to my Demon Sealing Sect?”
The middle-aged man felt speechless inside, having just sent off Master Wuyan, and now Elder Xueyuan had arrived. Were these people coordinating a group visit?
“Xue here dislikes nonsense, let's get straight to the point!”
“Two matters, first, the affair of the Buddhist Sect has nothing to do with our Blood Demon Sect, and even less to do with me, Xueyuan. Someone is using our Sect's name for personal schemes, we mustn't overlook a hidden power capable of this! ”
“Second, the Buddhist Sect is currently weak, the Blood Demon Sect wants to take this opportunity to rise and devour the Buddhist Sect, and you Super Sects may follow to get a sip of the soup.”
Xueyuan spoke coldly, very straightforwardly without any pleasantries, clarifying his purpose which somewhat disconcerted everyone.
“The Buddhist Sect's affair has nothing to do with the Blood Demon Sect?”
“In today's world, besides your Blood Demon Sect, who else has the capability and background?”
Elder Huangye couldn't help speaking out.
“That's why I say, a force capable of secretly destroying the foundation of the Buddhist Sect while remaining unseen is certainly a threat to be wary of. Our Blood Demon Sect's intention is clear, first annihilate the Buddhist Sect, then investigate thoroughly to find the person behind the scenes!”
“You major powers need to cooperate and dig out the ones hiding in the shadows. This is also a consideration for the safety of your sects in the future!”
Xueyuan said slowly, throwing out the same words as Master Wuyan had before, both pretending to be considerate of all major Sect's safety, which made the cultivators inwardly curse at their sanctimonious demeanor, truly shameless!
“It's not just about what you all think, within a month our Blood Demon Sect will gather our forces, hoping by then we can stand in the same camp, not as adversaries.”
Xueyuan stated indifferently.
“What if we choose not to support either side?”
An elder asked.
“The Sect Master said, those who are not with us are our enemies, and enemies, they must be eliminated!”
Xueyuan spoke with overwhelming authority, his voice cold.
“This is a conflict between the Buddha and Demon Clans. Our Blood Demon Sect will not kick someone while they're down, but we will not stand idly by either. If any disciples are seriously injured, our Demon Sealing Sect can surely heal them. However, we cannot instigate warfare. I advise the Blood Demon Sect not to either!”
“Numerous misdeeds will lead one to self-destruction. Once the flames of war ignite, they consume peoples' homes and torment the common folk. As the saying goes, 'what goes around comes around.' If one commits too many evil deeds, someone will come to collect!”
The middle-aged man slammed the table and stood up abruptly, his face raging with fury.
How dare this expert of the Blood Demon Sect be so disrespectful and even attempt to threaten others within his territory–it's simply outrageous.
“All of that comes later. The urgent matter is to take care of the Buddhist Sect, to eradicate this malignant tumor from the world and bring the hidden forces lurking in the shadows to light. You all have heard about the Buddhist Sect experimenting with new methods on children. Care must be taken lest your own children fall victim. There's no need for me to elaborate further on the fable of the Farmer and the Snake right here!”
Xueyuan smiled ominously and casually threw an invitation card, then turned and swept away.
“So that's the attitude for seeking help, with the Blood Demon Sect as arrogant as ever. Unfortunately, this time it won't be as they wish. The forces of Central Origin Realm, even if they ally, are to counteract Blood Demon Sect, not the Buddhist Sect!”
The group of Elders was furiously enraged, almost ready to rush up and start a fight with them!
“But what Xueuan spoke about regarding the Buddhist Sect isn't something done by our Blood Demon Sect. If there truly is a third-party force involved, this matter might not be as simple as it seems.”
Some Elders held a different view, believing in keeping a prudent neutrality, following a middle path and not siding with either, as this is a muddied water that's best not stirred, lest they soil themselves just by entering.
“Didn't the Buddhist Sect also claim that it was the doing of our Blood Demon Sect? Both sides just adhere to their own words trying to win us over. Cannot fully trust them!”
Within the Demon Sealing Sect, there was a commotion about whether to fight, withdraw, or maintain neutrality–a problem worth considering.
The same scenario was enacted in every Super Sect. Monk Wuyan went from door to door, persuasively detailing the importance of first eliminating Buddha Country and then listing dangers that Blood Demon Sect posed to the world. He urged many Sect masters to form a united front with the Buddhist Sect and not to exploit vulnerabilities.
And just as Monk Wuyan left, Xueyuan followed, impressing everyone he met into joining the Blood Demon Sect to share the Buddhist Sect's Pure Land. Xueyuan's ability to intimidate people relied on the covert forces behind him, while Wuyan depended on the nefarious ambitions of the Blood Demon Sect and the principle of mutual dependence for survival.
After a round of persuasion, Wuyan and Xueyuan continued to leave in close sequence. If they had stayed a few minutes more, they might have run into each other. On Southern Continent, clans and sects were bewildered; it was terrifying to see one Saint Realm expert from the Buddhist Sect leaving just for another from the Demon Path to arrive. Are Saint Realm martial artists not valuable anymore? It feels like they're as plentiful as cabbages.
In the Eastern Continent, within the Sword Sect.
Outside the mountain gate, an old monk approached slowly, holding a Zen Staff, a faint red glow surrounding him.
“Amitabha, I am Monk Wuyan, and I greet all benefactors here!”
“I have come today with important matters to discuss with the Sword Sect, and I request moving to the great hall for a conversation.”
Monk Wuyan, acting familiarly, ignored the astonished gazes of many disciples and marched straight inside.
“Stop, Sword Sect's Second Peak is a critical area. Unauthorized persons cannot trespass!”
This was Monk Wuyan's first visit to Sword Sect, and at first glance, he noticed Second Peak's towering mount, mistaking it for the Sect Master's mountain.
Recently, Steward Chen Yuan felt highly valued by Li Xiaobai, acting incredibly bold; currently thriving at Second Peak, he saw this monk cloaked in red light without any fear, instead planting his hands on his hips and glaring.
This monk with a fierce look was clearly not good news, and already, Chen Yuan began plotting to put him into the outhouse.
