Sect Master’s Immortal Journey

Chapter 207: Yellow Lotus Sect



Chapter 207: Yellow Lotus Sect

In Jin Qiao'er's tearful narration, Jin Qigu occasionally added a few words to help everyone understand what happened. Jin Qigu, accompanied by Jin Qiao'er and several female disciples, made a round in Great Wind City to purchase the necessary supplies. Jin Qiao'er, with a childlike nature, had never been to such a large city before, so everything she saw on the roadside felt fresh to her. She played and shopped all the way.

Jin Qigu doted on Jin Qiao'er greatly and since they were in the safe confines of Great Wind City, she allowed her to wander around freely. After all, Jin Qiao'er was never out of his sight, so there was no need to worry about any issues.

Who could have imagined that Jin Qiao'er would catch the attention of a cultivator from the Yellow Lotus Sect? This Yellow Lotus Sect cultivator stopped Jin Qiao'er and claimed that they were destined to be master and disciple.

Jin Qiao'er was the successor of Aunt Jin's teachings, and Qiaoshou Sect had high hopes for her, considering her the future star who could revitalize the sect. In any case, they wouldn't let her fall into the hands of another sect.

Before Jin Qigu could intervene, Jin Qiao'er instinctively showed great disgust and hostility towards that person. The man tried to take Jin Qiao'er forcibly but was stopped in time by Jin Qigu.

When they exchanged blows, Jin Qigu immediately felt that the other person was at least at the late stage of Foundation Building, and she couldn't resist even a few moves.

Fortunately, the patrolling cultivators of Great Wind City arrived at a critical moment and prevented further conflict. After understanding what happened, the patrolling cultivators didn't favor the Yellow Lotus Sect disciple just because of his affiliation. After giving the person a warning, they drove him away.

Before Jin Qigu left, the patrolling cultivators warned him to be cautious, as Yellow Lotus Sect was a powerful force with many extraordinary individuals.

In a hurry, Jin Qigu left with Jin Qiao'er and quickly returned to the warehouse. After hearing the whole story, everyone's expressions turned grim. Ruan Dadao even disregarded their alliance with Qiaoshou Sect and muttered under his breath, "This is trouble-seeking."

After arriving in Great Wind City, everyone actively gathered information about the nearby cultivation forces and got some understanding of Yellow Lotus Sect, a powerful force in the entire Jiuqu League. They had numerous disciples and experts and were known for their unruly and domineering style.

Since the disappearance of Yellow Lotus Sect's Primordial Spirit True Monarch, the Gold Core Daoist Masters within the sect had been embroiled in internal strife. The Main Altar was full of power struggles and disputes, and the branches acted independently, not following the Main Altar's orders. The Main Altar and the branches were at odds with each other, and there were hostile relationships between them.

The branch near Great Wind City was the Yellow Lotus Sect's East River Branch. Although it was just a branch, its strength surpassed even Fire Cloud Sect in the surrounding cultivation forces, though not as powerful as Great Wind City.

Meng Zhang found it strange when the warehouse's attendants introduced the surrounding cultivation forces, including the East River Branch and Fire Cloud Sect. These forces seemed no weaker than Flying Swan Sect. Yet, a few hundred years ago, Flying Swan Sect had forcibly expelled both Yellow Lotus Sect and Fire Cloud Sect from the Endless Sea of Sand. Was there some hidden reason behind this?

Perhaps Flying Swan Sect had some concealed power that people didn't know about, or maybe the two sects didn't invest too much effort in the Endless Sea of Sand. Meng Zhang couldn't figure it out and had to temporarily put these questions aside.

Great Wind City was always wary of the Yellow Lotus Sect's East River Branch but didn't want to engage in direct conflict with them. Although the Yellow Lotus Sect was internally chaotic, no one knew if the East River Branch could seek help from the Main Altar or other branches if they clashed with Great Wind City.

Over the years, Yellow Lotus Sect cultivators from the East River Branch had caused trouble and disturbances in Great Wind City, affecting the city's favorable business environment. The high-ranking members of Great Wind City had to suppress their anger and only drove away the troublemakers without further punishment.

When everyone heard that Jin Qigu and the others had offended a Yellow Lotus Sect cultivator, their expressions turned grim. Even Great Wind City, which had multiple Gold Core Daoist Masters, couldn't handle Yellow Lotus Sect, let alone these Foundation Building disciples.

Although Yellow Lotus Sect cultivators wouldn't dare to act openly due to Great Wind City's rules, they could cause harm in subtle ways that others couldn't bear.

Ruan Dadao's face turned gloomy, and he almost couldn't help but drive Jin Qigu and the others away to completely cut ties with them.

Meng Zhang's expression was also unpleasant, not because he worried about being implicated but because of his aversion to Yellow Lotus Sect cultivators. He detested these so-called senior experts who wanted to seize treasures by force, claiming that they were destined for the treasures. They also forcibly took away people, claiming that they were destined to be together.

At this moment, Lin Shenpo comforted, "Qigu, don't worry; Great Wind City is still safe. As long as you stay in the warehouse, Yellow Lotus Sect won't be able to do anything to you."

However, the experienced Gu Tanghai shook his head and rebutted, "Yellow Lotus Sect cultivators are always cunning and malicious. Even if you hide in the warehouse, it's not a long-term solution."

Gu Tanghai's words silenced everyone, and Jin Qiao'er was on the verge of tears. "I think since everyone has almost finished their business here, we should leave immediately. If we act quickly, the Yellow Lotus Sect cultivators probably won't react in time," Meng Zhang suggested.

"You're right. We shouldn't linger here; as long as we leave, the Yellow Lotus Sect cultivators can't do anything to us," Gu Tanghai agreed with Meng Zhang's proposal.

Jin Qigu also didn't want to stay in Great Wind City any longer and felt that returning to their sect would offer some safety.

Lin Shenpo also echoed Meng Zhang's suggestion. Most people agreed to leave immediately, and everyone sprang into action.

Fortunately, the goods they brought had already been sold, and they had bought everything they needed. The disciples they brought were also in the warehouse.

After a brief organization, the five flying boats took off and headed outside of Great Wind City.

Fortunately, they acted quickly and resolutely. Soon after the five flying boats left, someone arrived at the warehouse to inquire about their group's information. However, by the time Yellow Lotus Sect learned about them, the flying boats had already left Great Wind City.

In their haste to leave, they didn't even spare a thought for the spiritual stones. The flying boats sped forward, quickly leaving the territory of the Jiuqu League.

Once they entered the Demon Wind Gobi, they slowed down their pace. The return journey was relatively smooth. They didn't encounter any ambushes from the demonic bird clans like they did when they first arrived.

Being more vigilant, they acted with extreme caution. Meng Zhang used his Deception Breaking Eye several times to observe the surrounding environment. If anything seemed amiss, they immediately changed their route to avoid danger.
