Chapter 1283: Rising Fame
After the defeat of Wuding Palace, the challenge between sects came to an end.
When the outcome of the two factions was disseminated, many sects outside were shocked.
Others had heard about the previous situation of Mowu Sect.
It couldn’t be said that the circumstances were dire, only that they were barely hanging on.
The protectors all fled, and half of the Inner Sect Elders ran away; this kind of sect was a few days away from extinction.
They didn’t even need external threats; soon enough, they would dissipate on their own.
However, this sect faced an attack by eleven Daoist Venerables from others and actually won.
Upon hearing this news, countless immortals doubted whether the victory and defeat had been swapped.
Outside of Mowu Sect’s mountain gate, Li Ye Guardian returned crying and begging.
With his Daoist Venerable Realm, wherever he went his status would not be low.
The key is that this time Mowu Sect is different; after annexing Wuding Palace, not only did its power surge, but it also has Brother Cheng, this powerful protector, shielding it.
Now Jiang Cheng’s name has swiftly spread throughout Duan Yang Dao.
A mere Celestial Venerable actually killed nine Daoist Venerables by himself.
When this record was first spread, no one believed it.
However, as the sects of the nine Daoist Venerables reported their deaths, people had no choice but to believe.
Such combat power shocked countless individuals.
Among the nine Daoist Venerables killed, some came from the fearsome Heaven-breaking Alliance.
Some were disciples of Daoist Saints.
Now, however, no one believed they would dare to seek revenge on Jiang Cheng.
Because... the Hundred Battle Order fell into his hands.
While obtaining this item in Duan Yang Dao doesn’t ensure no one disobeys, walking upright should not be a problem.
Coupled with his combat power, who dares to act?
He now resides in Mowu Sect, and many people directly regard Mowu Sect as the next "Heaven-breaking Alliance" of Duan Yang Dao.
"Sect Leader, previously I was blinded by greed..."
"Now, I regret it. Let me come back!"
"Those years we spent in the sect, we had no achievements but plenty of hardships!"
It’s not just Li Ye Daoist Venerable; previously fled Inner Sect Elders and disciples all looked hopeful, wanting to return to Mowu Sect.
The current Mowu Sect is no longer shaky but very likely to become the Dominator Sect of Duan Yang Dao.
How could they give up such a towering tree?
Being resolute in leaving the sect before, they showed no hesitation returning now.
"We were just impulsive at the time!"
"Actually, inside we were always worried about Mowu Sect, so much that we became emaciated these days..."
Daoist Venerable Lin Jing almost laughed out of anger.
Even if his news was very isolated, he knew these guys had already found new spots within a few days.
Where was there even a hint of worry for Mowu Sect?
"Get lost!"
"All of you get lost!"
"Having betrayed the sect, yet expecting to return, what kind of place do you think this is?"
He fiercely kicked away Li Ye Daoist Venerable’s grasping hand.
Just as Li Ye Daoist Venerable had fiercely pried open his tightly holding hand before.
Inside, other elders and disciples saw this scene; none pleaded for them but instead cursed them instead.
"Back then when disaster struck, we couldn’t keep you."
"Now that the sect is rising, we don’t need you!"
"Useless in times of trouble, you’re of no use returning!"
While saying this, they couldn’t help but think of Sect Leader Jiang.
Truly fortunate to have him this time.
He single-handedly reversed the outcome; otherwise, it would be them being mocked and ridiculed by these traitors.
After driving away Li Ye and others, someone flew over from afar.
Daoist Venerable Lin Jing took a look from afar and quickly ordered.
"Seal the mountain gate! Quickly!"
"Don’t let that fellow in!"
The disciples were puzzled.
Now that Sect Leader Jiang is right here in Mowu Sect, is there anyone to fear?
No matter who comes, aren’t they just courting death?
In their momentary delay, the newcomer roared and charged into the mountain gate of Mowu Sect.
"Good for you, Lin Jing, you dare to eat alone!"
Everyone fixed their gaze, and some elders recognized the visitor was Ming Jia Observatory Master of Cyan Feather Temple, someone almost invited to be a helper.
Later, when Daoist Venerable Lin Jing invited Brother Cheng, he directly ignored him.
"Oh, who do we have here? It’s Fellow Daoist Ming Jia, long time no see..."
Daoist Venerable Lin Jing had no choice but to turn his head and laugh.
Both ascended from the Lower Realm Ten Thousand Realms, maintaining contact all these years, they were old friends.
"Who’s your Fellow Daoist!"
Ming Jia Daoist Venerable angrily.
"Sect Leader Jiang arrives, and you didn’t notify me?"
Daoist Venerable Lin Jing curled his lips, "I just forgot, moreover why should I notify you, when in the past you didn’t have any close ties with Sect Leader Jiang."
"Bah!"
Ming Jia Daoist Venerable was fuming, glaring at him fiercely.
"How dare you claim closeness with Sect Leader Jiang back then?"
"Trying to eat alone, as if I can’t see your little schemes?"
"You despicable and shameless thing, I misjudged you!"
With that, he pushed past Lin Jing and stormed inside.
Moments later, he found Brother Cheng inside.
Once again, an emotional reunion after a long separation.
The disciples who followed realized that Ming Jia Daoist Venerable is also a friend of Sect Leader Jiang.
Who exactly is this Sect Leader Jiang?
Originating from the Ancient Immortal Realm, an old friend with Daoist Venerables Lin Jing and Ming Jia, that makes his qualification truly ancient.
Yet his realm is only at the Celestial Venerable level.
Oddly enough, his combat power is unbelievably strong.
For a moment, they were exceedingly curious.
"Sect Leader Jiang, being disturbed and dragged down by Lin Jing all this time, you must be tired of it, how about visiting my Cyan Feather Temple?"
Daoist Venerable Lin Jing jumped up immediately.
"Good for you Ming Jia, always with wicked intentions!"
"Sect Leader Jiang is perfectly comfortable here, our most honored guest, not tired at all!"
Ming Jia Daoist Venerable retorted, "Cyan Feather Temple is fine, no need for Sect Leader Jiang to fight..."
"Alright, alright."
Brother Cheng waved his hand.
"I’m quite comfortable here for now, not heading elsewhere anytime soon."
He’s waiting for the remaining members of Heaven-breaking Alliance, and for that Yuan Ke Daoist Saint to come for revenge.
If he changed locations, what would happen if they couldn’t find him?
Hearing he wasn’t leaving, Lin Jing was overjoyed.
"Haha, did you hear, Sect Leader Jiang isn’t interested in your Cyan Feather Temple, you can leave!"
"I’m not leaving, I want to stay here with Sect Leader Jiang, absorbing his elder’s teachings!"
Though disappointed Sect Leader Jiang wasn’t visiting, Ming Jia Daoist Venerable clung here.
Even occupying the palace closest to Sect Leader Jiang, seeming determined to root here.
This left Daoist Venerable Lin Jing furious yet resigned.
As Ming Jia Daoist Venerable settled in, more Daoist Venerables began visiting Mowu Sect in the following days.
