Chapter 307: Chapter 187: Microscopic World, Jiushan Paradise_2
Don’t find the wrong person.
The guests invited by the Sect Leader, Zheng Fa, need not worry.
But Zheng Fa himself has also invited a few people, and indeed, just a few.
One is Yan Wushuang, who hopes to conduct so business with the other party in the future.
One is Xiao Yuying, who has also lent a helping hand to Jiushan Sect, so it is fitting to invite her.
As for the others, Zheng Fa has actually sent another letter to Seventh Young Master, but since Seventh Young Master did not reply to the previous one, he does not know if he will receive it this ti.
Besides these three, there are no other guests.
It’s not that Zheng Fa is being aloof. Firstly, he is sowhat inept at social etiquette; secondly, after all, the Sect Leader ceremony is being held in the Jiushan Realm. An outsider’s life and death in the Jiushan Realm can be controlled by Zheng Fa in a thought. Except for these few people, Zheng Fa also believes that others would not be willing to take the risk to co.
…
When Yan Wushuang received the letter, Elder Han, the Sunset Sword Immortal, was standing beside him, whereas the two True Inheritors from Haori Mountain and Supre Dao previously seen were no longer there.
“What’s up? Did your dad send you another ssage?”
“No, it’s from Mr. Zheng.” Yan Wushuang looked at the Communication Talisman and could hardly hide his surprise, exclaiming, “Mr. Zheng is going to be Sect Leader?”
“Hm?”
Elder Han was also stunned.
He thought about it and said, “Has Zheng Fa reached the Golden Core stage?”
As soon as he said this, he rembered the aura on the Communication Talisman just now, shook his head, and denied, “No, the Divine Soul is exceptionally strong, not inferior to a Golden Core, but it hasn’t changed much from before.”
Hearing this, Yan Wushuang nodded, and they exchanged looks, finding it sowhat inconceivable.
“The forr Sect Leader of Jiushan Sect is really carefree… allowing Zheng Fa, who is rely at the Foundation Establishnt stage, to beco Sect Leader.”
“It’s not incomprehensible, after all, Zheng Fa is currently in charge of the Jiushan Realm… it’s just indeed a bit too soon.” Elder Han nodded, “Did he send you the ssage to invite you to the Sect Leader ceremony?”
Yan Wushuang nodded.
Elder Han was not surprised but brought up another matter, “Then what do you think about your dad asking you to return?”
Yan Wushuang had a sowhat confused look.
“He said that this place is dangerous now, and those two companions of mine have also been recalled.”
The two of them were hidden outside of a mortal city.
Below the city walls, there used to be a small market that was now devoid of visitors.
Looking out from the market was the barren farmland, which should be in harvest season, but there were neither farrs nor seedlings in the fields.
Only clumps of weeds were swaying in the wind.
“The Great Freedom Demon Sect…” Elder Han spoke softly, “has beco quite ruthless in the Secret Realm.”
Yan Wushuang turned his head and saw one or two disciples from the Great Freedom Demon Sect leaning against the city gate, chatting and laughing arrogantly, their faces full of triumph.
Looking further into the city.
Doors to shops on the streets were open, but there were no custors, only people dressed in Great Freedom Demon Sect’s clothes strolling around at will, seemingly shopping – but from the shopkeepers’ faces, it seed they dared not ask for money.
It’s even questionable whether they opened their shops of their own volition.
“Why are they like this, the Great Freedom Demon Sect?”
Seeing the dismal scene and recalling the various tragedies heard along the way, Yan Wushuang couldn’t help but ask.
Logically, the Immortal Sect is not too kind to the mundane world, but they don’t take everything – it’s more an aloof and indifferent attitude, simplistically speaking.
“Too many people,” Elder Han unexpectedly gave an answer that took Yan Wushuang by surprise.
“Too many people?”
“The attitudes of the Immortal Sect and the Demon Sect towards mortals are essentially no different…” Elder Han’s words made Yan Wushuang a little startled as he continued, “but the scale is much different.”
“Our Immortal Sect Disciples are carefully selected, and most possess good aptitude. Mortal possessions aren’t that useful for cultivation, so we naturally don’t pay much attention to them.”
“But the Demon Sect’s Skill… is tied to bloodlines, the more offspring produced, the higher the chance of seeing a prodigy.”
Yan Wushuang realized, “But the resources available for cultivation are still the sa, so most people from the Demon Sect actually don’t have the opportunity for cultivation – the problem is, they’re naturally considered as superior.”
“Exactly.” Elder Han said with a smile, “It’s not necessarily that everyone in the Demon Sect is born evil. Are those in the Immortal Sect all good people?”
Yan Wushuang nodded, knowing that Elder Han has always had a prejudice against the Immortal Sect – but on the other hand, what he said was also true.
“But the Demon Sect indeed exploits more fiercely and is more rciless towards the mundane world. In addition to so of their skills requiring mass slaughter, I believe this natural difference in scale is the reason.”
“Look at the Great Freedom Demon Sect, their realm has billions of people. After coming out, every one of them is superior to others— how could they afford not to be ruthless?”
Yan Wushuang fell into deep thought, and when he looked at the scenes before him again, he felt sowhat enlightened.
“So you have to understand, the Demon Sect is naturally disdained by people, but becoming the leader of a force is not that simple either. Good and evil are not enough to describe a force.”
“I’ll say it again, there’s not much difference between the Immortal Sect and the Demon Sect.”
Yan Wushuang knew he was intentionally enlightening him, and nodded in acknowledgnt, “Disciple understands.”
While they talked, they made their way toward the Jiushan Realm.
Elder Han seed to have so thoughts, and kept using the sights along the way to teach Yan Wushuang.
They saw refugees with pale faces.
They saw people trading dignity for food.
They saw people trading their bodies for food.
They saw people… trading their wives and children for food.
They even encountered situations Yan Wushuang finally couldn’t help but intervene in – which led to the Great Freedom Demon Sect hunting him down.
With Elder Han by his side, he was naturally safe, but his eyes sohow filled with sorrow, and a hint of hostility appeared on his face.
“Do you know why your dad asked you to return?”
Seeing him like this, Elder Han spoke softly with a chuckle.
