Chapter 1021 Lu Cun's Worries, and a Powerful Enemy.
three days later.
Inside the Beast Heart Sect, in front of Ye Kang's cave, Lu Cun, with a somber face, took a deep breath and said, "Fellow Daoist Ye, may I have a meeting?"
Lu Cun was somewhat uneasy. What happened three days ago was far beyond his expectations, turning his entire plan into a joke.
Although the outcome seems positive, with all four sects returning to prepare and the Qiyun Sect poised for revitalization, it has little to do with him anymore.
Even if a new Qiyun Sect is established in the future, who will be the master?
After much hesitation, he finally arrived at Ye Kang's cave, wanting to get to the bottom of things.
A moment later, the cave door opened, and Lu Cun walked in. Just like the last time he came, Ye Kang was still sitting upright on the futon, with a kind smile on his face.
"Fellow Daoist Lu Cun, you can just send a message if you need anything; there's no need to come in person," Ye Kang said with a smile.
Lu Cun, however, dared not take it seriously. He respectfully cupped his hands and then said, "Fellow Daoist Ye, I only want to ask, what exactly is your purpose?"
"What do you mean, fellow Daoist?"
"Fellow Daoist, why bother hiding anything from me? We both know perfectly well that although I intend to win you over to rebuild the Qiyun Sect with me, with your strength, there is absolutely no need for you to join forces with me. Why do you still do this?"
Lu Cun raised his head. Although he was rough in appearance, he was also very meticulous. At this moment, he was neither humble nor arrogant.
Ye Kang was silent for a moment after hearing this, then smiled and said, "Fellow Daoist, are you asking why a rogue cultivator from Cangzhou like me should help you?"
"Exactly."
"I've already explained the reason before. I'm going to Qingzhou. The stronger the Qiyun Sect is, the safer I will be. Fellow Daoist, you can rest assured that I will only serve as a Supreme Elder. The specific matters of the sect will still depend on you."
"That's not what I meant. If you're willing, you can unify the six sects of Qiyun. I'm sure no one would object."
“I will not stay in the Qiyun Sect forever, nor will I protect you forever. Therefore, there is no benefit for me to lead the Qiyun Sect.”
Ye Kang stared intently at Lu Cun, making his stance clear.
Although Lu Cun still had doubts, he breathed a sigh of relief.
He solemnly cupped his hands and said, "Lu Cun, thank you for your great kindness, fellow Daoist."
"You are Welcome."
"However, there is one more thing you need to pay attention to, fellow Daoist."
"Could it be the Wind and Thunder Sword Sect?"
Ye Kang asked a question in return, already guessing what Lu Cun wanted to say.
Five of the six sects of Qiyun have now united, and the only one that has not yet appeared is the Fenglei Sword Sect, which has the strongest foundation.
This lineage inherited the most from the Qiyun Sect, possessing four blessed lands within its territory. In addition to the patriarch Han Linzi, there are several elders at the peak of the Nirvana Ninth Revolution, who may break through to the True Realm at any time, making their strength not to be underestimated.
Han Linzi's cultivation had also reached the fourth level, making him the strongest among the six sects. He had always had the idea of revitalizing Qiyun, but unlike Lu Cun, he chose to be gentle and slowly persuade the others.
However, due to Ye Kang's intervention, the Wind and Thunder Sword Sect has suddenly become the only outlier.
To revitalize Qiyun, it is necessary to subdue the Fenglei Sword Sect. Similarly, Han Linzi will certainly not obediently submit to others.
Lu Cun nodded and said, "To be honest, Fellow Daoist Ye, Han Linzi has long had the idea of subduing the six sects. Although he has not made a move yet, he has been leveraging their strengths over the years. Now that the Wind and Thunder Sword Sect and the Upper Sect Soul Slaying Sect have a close relationship, I am afraid that the Soul Slaying Sect will lend him a hand."
"The Soul Slaying Sect? What's their background?"
"Fellow Daoist, you may not know this, but there are countless sects in the Central Continent. Apart from the Three Supreme Sects and the Four Horizontal and Vertical Sects, the next level up is the Five Sects and Seven Schools. The Five Sects and Seven Schools form the Martial Alliance, and below the Martial Alliance, there are also different levels according to the number of True Realm experts. The Soul Slaying Sect is a lower-level sect of the Martial Alliance. Although it only has seven True Realm experts in charge, their strength is above ours. Even if our five sects unite, we will have no power to resist."
