“At that time, I was unconscious, so I didn’t see how it happened. However, other than sect master Jiang, there was no one else present…”
Elder Liang was like a detective who had discovered an important clue, and he immediately pounced onto this point.
“Can you guarantee that no one else passed by?”
“Since you didn’t see it, what makes you so sure that he killed them?”
“Martial niece Ji, you didn’t even check properly, yet you chose an outsider to become our sect master?”
“The position of sect master is of vital importance. If your actions ended up harming everyone here, what a great crime you would have committed.”
He questioned her relentlessly.
Ji Linghan was not a sharp-tongued person to begin with, thus she was momentarily rendered speechless.
She was confident in Jiang Cheng. Moreover, she really could not think of how or why he would harm the Flying Immortal sect.
“Enough, enough, are you done?”
Jiang Cheng was getting impatient after watching the scene unfold in front of him for a long time.
He could tell from a glance that elder Liang was trying to swindle his disciples’ resources.
Elder Liang was only targeting him because he had ruined the former’s plan.
“What’s the point of being so long-winded about this? I’ll just go and reclaim the Flying Immortal sect right now.”
Elder Liang was originally fuming, but he laughed out loud when he heard those words.
“Reclaim it? With just you?”
He looked at Jiang Cheng from top to bottom from the corner of his eyes.
In his eyes, Jiang Cheng, who was at the fourth level of the soul division realm, would only be courting death by going to the Flying Immortal sect grounds right now.
After the four sects seized it, they plundered it, and there were still people stationed there.
There would be no less than 20 soul division realm cultivators there right now, and going there would be equivalent to stepping into a dragon’s lair or a tiger’s den.
“Yeah, just me! If I manage to do it, then what will you do?”
“If you can do it, I’ll immediately acknowledge you as the sect master!”
Elder Liang was eager to see Jiang Cheng send himself to his death. After he died, this group of people would have no choice but to resort to his plan of offering treasures to seek aid.
“I’m just afraid that you wouldn’t dare…”
This method of provocation was too shallow. Let alone Jiang Cheng, even the others could also sense the sinister intentions behind elder Liang’s words.
Everyone frowned.
No matter how strong he was, Jiang Cheng had been willing to join the Flying Immortal sect during its most difficult time. That alone was enough.
Besides, the fact that he had saved Ji Linghan was real.
Luo Yuan and the others tried to dissuade him.
“Senior, why don’t you think about it more?”
“Yeah, there’s no need to rush our revenge…”
Jiang Cheng shook the sword in his hand and smiled.
“The enemies on the other side are nothing but trash in my eyes!”
After saying those words, he flew up into the sky.
Ji Linghan was quite confident in him and was the first to follow him.
When the others saw that she had also left, they naturally wanted to go with her.
Elder Liang stomped his feet in anger. He did not want to go back with them.
It was so dangerous over there now, so if he was not careful, would he not be discovered and surrounded again?
However, he was too cowardly to stay behind alone now.
“Hmph, you really won’t shed tears until you see your own coffin. I’d like to see just how you die!”
Arriving at the mountain range outside the Flying Immortal sect, everyone looked at the brightly lit sect grounds from afar. They were both sad and angry at the same time.
They saw that there were many people inside, bustling about endlessly.
After the four sects took down the Flying Immortal sect, they began to trash and destroy the sect grounds.
The sect’s treasury, the alchemy hall, the artifact hall, as well as various other places, had long been swept clean by the enemy’s higher-ups. The remaining elders and disciples of the four sects were all looting what was left.
From the looks of things, they were even trying to excavate the ground to see if anything had been hidden below.
“They even destroyed the statue of the patriarch!”
“The spiritual vein was also cut off by them!”
“The main hall’s plaque was taken down. What a bunch of bandits!”
“Damn it!”
Looking at the scene in front of them, everyone was filled with anger.
However, the difference in strength was still present. Even if they saw it all with their own eyes, it was useless.
“Sect master, how can we help you?”
The only person who addressed him as sect master was Ji Linghan.
The corners of Jiang Cheng’s mouth curled up, and he stuffed his ‘daughter’ into her arms.
“Leave the destruction of the enemy to me. You guys just need to cheer for me from behind.”

Ji Linghan had never heard the word ‘cheer’ before. She only felt that senior’s spirit was rather awe-inspiring. Her eyes could not help but become a little intoxicated.
The others really had no strength to argue otherwise.
“Senior, aren’t you being too arrogant…”
“Yeah, if we fly over like this, we’ll definitely be surrounded!”
“If you ask me, sneaking in and assassinating them is a much safer option.”
Elder Liang gloated, “If he wants to die, then who can stop him?”
Jiang Cheng flew over very quickly. Before the people on the opposite side could even react, he had already landed on the square of the main hall, which had already been ripped to pieces.
The main forces of the four sects were either searching the surroundings to eradicate the survivors of the Flying Immortal sect, or had already reaped a bountiful harvest and returned to their own sects.
Only 18 soul division realm elders and over 80 disciples remained here to continue their search.
This group of people could be considered to be the final ‘clean-up crew’. Looking at how desperate they were, it seemed that they were even about to pry out all the bricks and stones here.
“Who are you!?”
He had only just appeared when they discovered him.
However, he was not originally from the Flying Immortal sect, so those gathered from the four sects did not recognize him.
“Our four sects are currently in the middle of something. Those who aren’t supposed to be here, please leave!”
Were it not for the fact that Jiang Cheng was at the fourth level of the soul division realm, the elder opposite him would probably have directly attacked and killed him.
“You guys are in the middle of something?”
Jiang Cheng curled his lips into a smile and said mockingly, “What a coincidence? I’m also in the middle of something.”
The expression of the elder opposite him instantly darkened.
Meanwhile, the surrounding disciples also surrounded him one after the other.
“Sir, what do you mean by that? Are you going to stand up for the Flying Immortal sect?”
“I advise you to consider your own strength!”
“If you know what’s good for you, get lost!”
Since they could not figure out his background, they would not kill him off directly.
What if there was a big sect behind him?
Jiang Cheng chuckled and corrected them.
“I’m not here to stand up for the Flying Immortal sect. I’m just cleaning up.”
Cleaning up?
That elder was confused by his words.
“What do you mean?”
“What I mean is that, right now, I’m the sect master of the Flying Immortal Sect. Aren’t you all being a little too disrespectful by moving my things right under my nose?”
As soon as he finished speaking, the sound of longswords being unsheathed rang out incessantly from the opposite side.
Immediately after that, he was surrounded.
“You are the new sect master of the Flying Immortal sect?”
The elder on the opposite side had a gloomy expression, and wanted to confirm his words.
“Yes, I was just appointed yesterday!”
“Those surviving members of the Flying Immortal sect are really blind. They actually found a fool like you to become their sect master!”
The other elders of the four sects who stayed behind also rushed over.
Jiang Cheng was only at the fourth level of the soul division realm, and could be taken down by any two elders of any sect.
However, since he was the sect master, it was better to make it a grand spectacle.
“Since you’re here, don’t even think about leaving this place alive!”
Elder Liang, who was hiding on the mountainside, almost laughed out loud when he saw this scene.
This kid was just too stubborn.
Was he looking for ways to kill himself?
Luo Yuan and the rest sported worried expressions.
“This is bad. Senior Jiang is surrounded!”
“There are 18 soul division realm elders and more than 100 disciples. There’s no way out for him!”
“Unless he is at the spiritual altar realm…”
“Sigh…”
Elder Liang was afraid that they would be trapped if they rushed in to save Jiang Cheng.
“Don’t act rashly.”

“It’s his business if he wants to die. If you die too, the Flying Immortal sect will disappear completely!”
If they died there, he would not be able to get his hands on the resources in their storage rings.
“Senior, you must be pretty confident…”
Ji Linghan recalled that Jiang Cheng had told her that he had lived for a thousand years.
However, as soon as she finished speaking, Jiang Cheng turned into a pool of blood in the distance.
