After Defying the Villain’s Fate for Nine Lifetimes, the Heroines Turn Mad!

Chapter 218



In the Ghost Controlling Sect’s main hall.

At this moment, the Ghost Controlling Sect’s Old Ancestor, several Supreme Elders, and the Sect Leader of the Ghost Controlling Sect were all gathered.

Everyone’s face was grim, exclaiming that it was just too much.

In fact, the moment Yan Mei’s soul lamp went out, the Ghost Controlling Sect’s Old Ancestor sensed that the marriage alliance was doomed to fail.

They all knew Yan Mei’s character well.

In their view, it was because Yan Mei failed to seduce Jiang Chen and instead provoked his disgust, leading to her untimely death.

The death of the Ghost Controlling Sect’s top disciple within their own sect was a major event.

Normally, the Ghost Controlling Sect would respond with thunderous fury, showing the perpetrator the might of a Demonic Sect.

But helplessly, Jiang Chen was the young master of the Jiang family, and the Jiuyan Sect had just beaten up the Buddha Temple not long ago.

After weighing the strength of friend and foe, the Ghost Controlling Sect dared not act rashly.

They had thought that although the marriage alliance had fallen through, the dowry should still be returned, right? And the other Ghost Controlling Sect elders should also come back, right?

But who would have expected that there was no news at all? The disciples sent out to gather information also met with death one after another!

Various signs indicated that the Jiuyan Sect seemed to be detaining the Ghost Controlling Sect elders and even wanted to double-cross and swallow the dowry.

This made everyone regret deeply.

Their original intention was to form an alliance with the Jiuyan Sect to counter the Myriad Dao Demon Sect and other righteous paths and, in the best-case scenario, even cling to the Jiang family’s coattails.

But the result was a loss of both people and wealth!

And just recently, the sect members learned about the recent events from the disciple Gao Long.

Everyone agreed that at such a critical juncture, what Jiang Chen said must represent the intentions of the Jiuyan Sect.

“The Jiuyan Sect is going too far!” a Supreme Elder said.

“They won’t return the dowry, they won’t release our elders, and now they even have the audacity to demand to marry twenty of our female disciples and want us to prepare twenty dowries? Do they think our sect is easy to bully?” �

“Old Ancestor, we can’t tolerate this any longer! If we do, won’t we become cowards?”

Another Supreme Elder said, “I suggest we go to war! Although the Jiuyan Old Ancestor’s strength is unfathomable, he is ultimately in a soul state, and we are not without a chance of victory!”

These words immediately ignited everyone’s anger.

“That’s right!”

“The Jiuyan Sect is shameless, killing and looting, provoking us, and wanting to forcibly marry our Demonic Sect’s female disciples! If we don’t retaliate, won’t we be laughed at by other sects?”

“Let’s go all out, fight!”

“If not now, when?”

“When the Ghost Controlling Sect is enraged, corpses will float for thousands of miles!”

Everyone was filled with indignation.

The Ghost Controlling Sect’s Old Ancestor, annoyed, shouted, “Silence!”

The hall instantly fell quiet.

After a moment of contemplation, the Ghost Controlling Sect’s Old Ancestor said, “I just received news that the Jiuyan Old Ancestor personally led a team and annihilated the Billowing Clouds Sect. Now, the Billowing Clouds Sect has been renamed Billowing Clouds Demonic Sect and has become a subsidiary sect of the Jiuyan Sect.”

“What?!” Everyone was shocked.

It was not surprising to them that the Jiuyan Sect had the power to destroy the Billowing Clouds Sect.

After all, the strength of the two was not on the same level.

But the problem was the Jiuyan Old Ancestor had just fought a great battle with the Buddha Old Ancestor, and now he had led a team to destroy a second-rate sect.

What did this prove?

It proved that the Jiuyan Old Ancestor’s cultivation was still intact.

His strength was still present, and even in a soul state, he was unaffected!

“Strange…” the Sect Leader of the Ghost Controlling Sect frowned and analyzed.

“Logically speaking, even if the Jiuyan Old Ancestor knows the ancient soul technique and can control other people’s bodies, his soul power should still be consumed.”

“Nine Abyss Soul Embryo?” the Ghost Controlling Sect’s Old Ancestor said.

“So that’s it, the Nine Abyss Soul Embryo is a great supplement for ghosts and can also help cultivators in a soul state recover their soul power! No wonder they want to swallow our dowry!” a Supreme Elder realized.

Now the others understood too.

After all this commotion, they were actually aiding the enemy!

Everyone fell silent again.

To go to war, with the Jiuyan Old Ancestor’s strength right there, the chances of victory were slim.

To not go to war… having been bullied to this extent, if they didn’t make a move, they would definitely be ridiculed!

“Old Ancestor, I have a strategy that might make the Jiuyan Sect pay a price!” the Sect Leader of the Ghost Controlling Sect suddenly said.

Seeing everyone looking at him, he slowly uttered, “Let’s borrow strength! The female ghost from Ghost Ridge Soul Abyss is also quite dissatisfied with the Jiuyan Sect. I suggest we send someone to persuade her to join us in attacking the Jiuyan Sect!”

“…This plan is feasible!” the Ghost Controlling Sect’s Old Ancestor nodded.

Alone, the Ghost Controlling Sect was no match for the Jiuyan Sect.

But with the addition of the female ghost from Ghost Ridge Soul Abyss, they would have a certain chance of victory!

“What about Jiang Chen? Should we send him away?” someone else asked.

“No! Didn’t he say we’re all one family? Since we’re family and he’s here for a marriage alliance, let’s keep him as a guest and discuss things slowly,” the Ghost Controlling Sect’s Old Ancestor said with a sinister smile.

Upon hearing this, everyone was first stunned, then quickly understood.

Naturally, they didn’t dare to actually harm Jiang Chen, but they could keep him in the Ghost Controlling Sect under the guise of being a guest and discussing matters.

This move had several advantages.

First, Jiang Chen was the link between the Jiuyan Sect and the Jiang family.n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om

If Jiang Chen were in the Jiuyan Sect, the Ghost Controlling Sect would be constrained during a war to avoid offending the Jiang family.

Second, if the Jiuyan Sect were to be destroyed, they could naturally make Jiang Chen a disciple of the Ghost Controlling Sect, thereby clinging to the Jiang family’s coattails.

Although this would attract the attention of the Empress, the Ghost Controlling Sect was under too much pressure and couldn’t care about that anymore.

Third, if the Jiang family came to make trouble personally, this would also avoid a direct confrontation with them.

Three birds with one stone!

“But Old Ancestor, Jiang Chen has such a bad reputation. Won’t his stay in the Ghost Controlling Sect bring trouble to the sect?” the Sect Leader of the Ghost Controlling Sect hesitated.

“Trouble? Bad reputation? Does our Ghost Controlling Sect fear trouble or lack a bad reputation?” the Ghost Controlling Sect’s Old Ancestor scoffed.

“Even if he is the young master of the Jiang family, can he bring about the destruction of our sect?”

“There are rumors that the Jiuyan Sect becoming a Demonic Sect has something to do with the Jiang family’s actions behind the scenes,” a Supreme Elder also expressed concern.

“It’s just a case of misinformation,” Old Ancestor of the Ghost Controlling Sect shook his head.

“Even if it were true, our Ghost Controlling Sect is already a Demonic Sect, what is there to fear?”

The crowd nodded, finding his words reasonable, and said no more.

…….

Half an hour later.

A group of people appeared before Jiang Chen, led by Tu Zheng, the Sect Master of the Ghost Controlling Sect.

“Cough!”

After a light cough, Tu Zheng laughed heartily: “Jiang Chen, from now on, the Ghost Controlling Sect is your home!”

“Home?” Jiang Chen was taken aback.

“That’s right! The Old Ancestor and the Supreme Elders are in seclusion recently. You can stay as a guest in the Ghost Controlling Sect, and we’ll discuss other matters after the Old Ancestor comes out of seclusion,” Tu Zheng nodded.

“Is that really okay?” Jiang Chen’s expression was odd.

“What’s not okay about it? I think it’s very good!”

Tu Zheng waved his hand cheerfully, “Didn’t you say we’re all family?”

“Right, one family.”

Jiang Chen also started to smile.
