Chapter 2220: The Biggest Crisis at Supreme Sect 5
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
After the confrontation between the Grand Unity Sect and the Supreme Sect, the Supreme Sect forfeited its rights to Wuyuan Island.
Within the Supreme Sect, Lv Zhengyang found himself at a disadvantage.
Even if the Supreme Sect managed to survive the immediate crisis, their future prospects seemed bleak. Daily sustenance was in question, let alone any aspirations for cultivation.
However, Lv Zhengyang stood apart from the rank-and-file disciples. His exceptional spiritual aptitude and dedication held great promise. He believed he could earn the favor of Pei Yueling and become her disciple.
With his resolve solidified, Lv Zhengyang respectfully bowed to the Elder Men of the Supreme Sect and then headed toward Pei Yueling.
Observing the inner disciples of the Supreme Sect rallying to her side, Pei Yueling’s smile grew brighter. Without any effort on her part, the decisions and actions of these important inner disciples would likely incite many others within the Supreme Sect to turn against their own. Her father would now not only absolve her of blame but also commend her.
In high spirits, Pei Yueling treated Lv Zhengyang kindly and suggested that he stand beside her.
Lv Zhengyang was both surprised and thrilled. His bet on Pei Yueling had paid off; she was undoubtedly interested in recruiting someone like him.
With a respectful greeting, Lv Zhengyang took his place at Pei Yueling’s side.
Before long, the Supreme Sect’s disciples noticed that the Grand Unity Sect treated the surrendered disciples based on their individual merits. Disciples of Lv Zhengyang’s caliber would receive high regard from Pei Yueling, while ordinary outer sect members would be treated like their counterparts in the Grand Unity Sect.
Under these circumstances…
This meant that they were essentially facing a situation mirroring their former one within the Supreme Sect.
Certain highly-ranked inner disciples began to waver in their loyalties.
As for some outer sect disciples, they harbored uncertainty. Having not gained acceptance into the inner sect, joining the Grand Unity Sect might seem like a more favorable choice.
Gradually, another wave of disciples arrived on the scene.
Gu Chaoyan seethed with anger over Lv Zhengyang’s betrayal. Yet, what was done was done, and it had already left a substantial impact. She needed to find a solution to the present predicament.
Continuing down this path would not only lead to financial losses for the Supreme Sect but would also greatly diminish morale. When the Grand Unity Sect launched their attack, they would be swiftly overwhelmed.
With these thoughts racing through her mind…
Gu Chaoyan drew her white jade sword.
She thrust it directly at the Supreme Sect disciple who was heading towards the Grand Unity Sect, instantly ending his life.
Gu Chaoyan’s sudden action halted those disciples who were on the verge of departing. They stared at Gu Chaoyan in astonishment, for they belonged to the same school, and according to the Supreme Sect’s rules, fellow sect members should not be killed, as it would result in their expulsion from the sect.
The Elder Men were equally taken aback.
However, Di Hongyun and Yuan Jia remained relatively composed. More often than not, Gu Chaoyan carried out actions they themselves wished to undertake but lacked the audacity to execute.
“You’ve come this far, with the Grand Unity Sect right before you. Half of you are former Supreme Sect disciples, while the other half still belong to Supreme Sect. I am a disciple of the Supreme Sect, and I possess the authority to take your lives.. Rather than allowing you to become instruments of the Supreme Sect’s destruction, why not end it now?”
