Ye Fan was also taken aback when he heard the impatient tone coming from the Grand Elder's sound transmission talisman.
He had not expected that the Equality Secret Realm would actually be in Lu Ming's hands as well.
Previously, during the battle of the Unity-stage experts in the demon race territory, he had gone to look for Lu Ming.
He had absolutely no idea what had happened afterward.
For some reason, Ye Fan had a lingering feeling that the Equality Secret Realm should have belonged to him.
Damn it, that wretched mortal must have stolen his opportunity.
This wretched mortal was a stumbling block on his path to growth.
He had to die. He must die!
“This isn't important news at all! We already know this...” the Haoran Sect's Soul Transformation cultivator shouted at Ye Fan, highly annoyed.
What kind of person was this?
Making him look like a fool with outdated news?
Suppressing the urge to slap him to death, Ye Fan spoke again: “I know the background of the Heavenly Demon Sect.”
The Haoran Sect's Soul Transformation cultivator, who was just about to leave, suddenly froze in his tracks.
“Really?”
“Yes.”
“Let me ask again...”
“Grand Elder, that eunuch knows the background of the Heavenly Demon Sect.”
The reply came even faster this time, and the Grand Elder's voice even carried a hint of urgency: “What background?”
The Soul Transformation cultivator of the Haoran Sect looked at Ye Fan and smiled mockingly. “Well, Nine Thousand Years, what exactly is the background of this Heavenly Demon Sect?”
Ye Fan didn't bother to comment on how quickly this man changed his attitude. He simply said: “The three sect masters of the Heavenly Demon Sect are actually three disciples of the Qingshan Sect. It belongs to a righteous sect in our North-Eastern Province...”
Without wasting any words, the Soul Transformation cultivator immediately reported this information to the Grand Elder of the Haoran Sect.
When the Grand Elder of the Haoran Sect heard this, he was highly bewildered. Was there really such a sect?
He immediately summoned the Sect Master of the Haoran Sect.
“Little Nie, is there a Qingshan Sect in our Eastern Province?”
“The Qingshan Sect? I wonder which Qingshan Sect you are referring to, Grand Elder?”
The Grand Elder blanked for a moment. “Are there multiple Qingshan Sects?”
“Ah, no,” the Sect Master of the Haoran Sect quickly replied. “I do know of one Qingshan Sect. It's a small sect that my late disciple used to look after. They're so poor they can barely put food on the table...”
The Sect Master then mournfully recounted the events of the past.
After listening to him, the Grand Elder also looked doubtful. Could it really be this small, run-down sect?
Just then, the Soul Transformation cultivator on the other end sent another transmission: “That eunuch also said that the person who killed our disciple with the top-grade spiritual root was Lu Ming of the Qingshan Sect. He even swore a Heavenly Dao Oath to guarantee its truth...”
Upon hearing this transmission, the Sect Master of the Haoran Sect was also taken aback. “Why does this sound so familiar?”
That was right. Back in the Equality Secret Realm, the Northern Province killer who rode the wolf had also said the exact same thing.
Could there really be some misunderstanding here?
But Shi Banxian's divination pointed to a demonic cultivator. Could Shi Banxian have made a mistake?
Suddenly, the Sect Master's eyes lit up.
Dammit! If this Lu Ming was the Sect Master of the Heavenly Demon Sect, he could indeed be considered a demonic cultivator!
That meant Shi Banxian's calculation wasn't wrong at all.
He had simply failed to divine his second identity.
Oh, poor Ye Fan of the Northern Province. You only have your own bad luck to blame.
Why did you have to ride a wolf for no reason?
“Grand Elder, there might really be something wrong with this disciple of the Qingshan Sect.”
Hearing the Sect Master's words, the Grand Elder asked for the Qingshan Sect's location.
Whether there was a problem or not, he would know once he went to take a look!
When he arrived at the Qingshan Sect and saw the small, run-down mountain before him, his lips twitched.
Was such a pathetic sect really the one causing all this trouble?
However, when he swept his divine sense over the area, he found that there wasn't a single soul around...
He then sent a message to the Sect Master of the Haoran Sect, telling him to send people to search for the Qingshan Sect's members.
...
“Where do you think the Grand Elder and the others moved the sect to?” Lu Ming, who had been searching for several days, couldn't help but sigh.
Big Yellow and Huang Tianbao shook their heads helplessly.
“Sigh... How could the Grand Elder and the others forget to tell me the address when they moved?”
“Did they get senile in their old age?” Huang Tianbao couldn't help but mutter.
“Forget it, let's find a place to rest...”
They had been searching for days without finding a single clue...
Afterward, Lu Ming led everyone into a city to recuperate.
“Alright, everyone go out and look around. If you see anything you like, you can buy it.”
Following Lu Ming's instructions, Diao San and the others wandered around the city to buy some daily necessities they needed.
Diao San, Erniu, and the others went to a shop and bought a few sets of dharma robes to change into.
They also stocked up on things like spirit talismans.
They didn't lack weapons, as the Great Sect Master could forge them.
They didn't lack pills either, as the Great Sect Master could refine them.
Previously, they didn't lack spirit talismans either. Before Wang Defa took his leave, all their spirit talismans were drawn by him.
Although they weren't high-grade, they were still usable.
Sure enough, the Great Sect Master was right; they couldn't let him take leaves of absence anymore in the future.
Just as they finished purchasing their items, Fei Jiujin urged: “Let's go eat! I'm starving to death...”
Diao San and the others were speechless. This guy was always either eating or on his way to getting hungry.
However, they also envied him. As long as he ate, his cultivation would increase.
Why, he had almost eaten his way to the Nascent Soul stage.
Eventually, Diao San and the others arrived at a restaurant.
“Waiter, bring out all your best food and drinks...”
A moment later, inside the private room, Fei Jiujin began to gorge himself...
“Another table of food!”
“Another table of food!”
After serving three tables of food in a row and seeing the way Fei Jiujin ate, the waiter was completely dumbfounded.
Was this guy a bottomless pit? How could anyone eat so much?
While Fei Jiujin was eating, Diao San felt bored... so he started playing around with the newly purchased eavesdropping talisman in the private room.
Sigh... If only the Great Sect Master knew how to draw talismans. That would save the sect another fortune...
Suddenly, as Diao San activated the eavesdropping talisman, a rough voice entered his ears: “There's absolutely no problem with us attacking and taking over this sect!”
Diao San raised an eyebrow, understanding that this was some sect discussing an attack on another sect.
It had nothing to do with him.
Just then, Diao San's eyes widened in shock.
“Have you really thoroughly investigated the strength of this Qingshan Sect? It's just a Golden Core old man with two Foundation Establishment kids?”
“Yes!”
Hearing this, Diao San's hands trembled. Was the Qingshan Sect they were talking about... their own Qingshan Sect?
Not daring to delay, Diao San quickly sent a sound transmission talisman to Lu Ming.
In just a brief moment, Lu Ming rushed over in a hurry.
“Where are they?”
Diao San pointed to the room next door.
Without wasting any words, Lu Ming concealed his cultivation to the early Golden Core stage and knocked on the door next door.
“Knock, knock, knock...”
Creak...
The door opened, and a burly man stood there, glaring fiercely at Lu Ming: “What do you want?”
“I heard you guys want to attack the Qingshan Sect?” Lu Ming asked with a bright smile.
