Mount Hua Immortal Sect was once the overlord of all immortal sects.

But this was many years ago and now they were down and out.

And have become rotten to the core!

Mount Hua’s old ancestor left behind many good things including magical artifacts and divine skills. There were very few remaining now and didn’t amount to more than a few books of secret skills.

All the other immortal sects seem to know of this matter.

Except…

It was too sudden to have Venerable Yun Ji use these secret skills as compensation.

It wasn’t just Venerable Yun Ji.

Even the expression of the Prime Elder who had been paying attention to the main hall underwent a change. When he heard Venerable Yun Ji’s sound transmission, he didn’t give a reply. He didn’t know how to respond because he didn’t want to bear the charge of infamy. After he dies, he wouldn’t know how to face all the ancestors of Mount Hua Immortal Sect.

There wasn’t a single person who was his opponent inside Mount Hua’s main hall.

Even Venerable Yun Ji was capable of killing everyone present. But behind these people were the ten great immortal sects who had experts at the Profound God realm supporting them. There might even be some in the Profound God Sovereign realm who have been permanently in seclusion for tens of thousands of years.

Venerable Yun Ji’s expression revealed his dumbstruck feeling. He froze as he stared at Lei Zhen and Tian Lunwang’s cold expression.

He was thinking of the current situation of Mount Hua Immortal Sect.

And then thinking of his current position.

Lei Zhen looked at Venerable Yun Ji and coldly scoffed, “Brother Yun Ji, the things your old ancestor left behind are naturally important but in my opinion, Mount Hua Immortal Sect itself is more important. I will tell you frankly, having you hand over Mount Hua’s secret skills wasn’t an initiative we arbitrarily came up with. This was actually our mission.”

“That’s right!”

Tian Lunwang immediately said: “This was something our Sect Leader specifically made us do. If your Mount Hua Immortal Sect doesn’t hand over the secret skills, Mount Hua Immortal Sect will no longer be worthy of existing. At that time, you can’t blame our ten great immortal sects for joining hands to destroy your immortal sect. After you guys are destroyed, we can still find those secret skills we’re after! Humph~!”

“There’s really no need for such a trashy immortal sect to continue existing.”

“I feel that way too.”

“They are losing face for all the other immortal sects.”

“If they don’t hand over the things we want today, we will flatten their immortal sect! Humph~!”

“Even if they hand over the things today, their position will still be knocked off if they don’t find any disciples to participate in next year’s competition. But becoming a normal sect next year is still better than being destroyed today. If it was me, I would definitely choose the former.”

The Elders of the ten great immortal sects all started speaking their minds.

In their eyes, they were treating Mount Hua Immortal Sect like nothing and not placing any importance on Venerable Yun Ji.

This world had always been like that.

The weaker you are, the more you would be bullied.

However…

The most irritating part was that Venerable Yun Ji wasn’t weak. He was stronger than anyone present here, but he was extremely scared. He was scared of losing everything he had and was afraid of dying. He didn’t dare to even let out a fart after being bullied to this degree.

Requiring Mount Hua Immortal Sect to use their secret skills as compensation.

This was practically slapping the faces of every single member of Mount Hua Immortal Sect! This was a huge and blatant insult!

Han Hua couldn’t keep watching.

Yun Ling and Yun Yi couldn’t keep watching.

Zhao Chen couldn’t keep watching either.

But…

They didn’t show any reaction because they had completely given up on Mount Hua Immortal Sect. They were all yelling inside themselves: “Luo Tian, let’s have Mount Hua Immortal Sect be reborn from the ashes!”

This was what they were all thinking.

They couldn’t keep watching but those inner sect Elders started beseeching Venerable Yun Ji.

Venerable Hun Yuan was the first to speak, “Sect Leader, secret skills are important but our Mount Hua Immortal Sect as a whole is more important. As long as the green mountains are still there, we won’t need to worry about firewood. Sect Leader should just agree to their request.”

Venerable Tian Yuan also added: “That’s right. None of us are capable of training in the secret skills so leaving them here is useless. Why not just agree to their request?”

“Sect Leader, just give it to them.”

“Sect Leader, please think of Mount Hua Immortal Sect as a whole. Just give it to them.”

Every one of them was imploring him.

They were all afraid!

If the ten great immortal sects joined hands, they could easily raze Mount Hua Immortal Sect to the ground. They almost died from fright at that thought!

Venerable Yun Ji looked up.

He already made a choice in his heart but didn’t say it out loud because he was waiting for the Elders to implore him.

He couldn’t bear this infamy alone!

But…

It was different if everyone shouldered it together. At that time, they could all push the responsibility onto Luo Tian. Everything turned out like this because of him! Venerable Yun Ji’s killing intent rose up when he thought of Luo Tian’s name!

Immediately after…

Venerable Yun Ji exhaled a long breath of air and pretended to show an expression like he was making a difficult choice. “Junior brother Lei, junior brother Tian; it is my Mount Hua Immortal Sect’s misfortune to have a beast like Luo Tian. I shall sincerely apologize to all of you right now. If that beast dares to come back here, we won’t let him continue living onwards. Since so many disciples of your ten great immortal sects have died, it’s reasonable that you should be compensated for it.”

“Someone come!”

“Go to Hidden Martial Pavilion and bring me the three secret skills.”

“Order received!”

“Hahaha…”

“Hahaha…”

“Brother Yun Ji, you should’ve done this in the beginning. Now we can give a good explanation to our leaders. Of course… we’re taking the secret skills but there are only three of them so it can only be enough to divide between three immortal sects. As for the other immortal sects… “ Lei Zhen started smiling.

Venerable Yun Ji didn’t even think and just said: “For the other immortal sects, they will each get a million top grade xuan stones.”

“Top grade xuan stones?”

“Are you treating us as beggars?”

“That’s right. Are you trying to play with us by taking out such crappy things?”

Venerable Yun Ji saw that the situation was turning bad so he immediately said: “My fellow apprentice brothers, I haven’t finished speaking. Apart from the one million top grade xuan stones, there are also a thousand inner cores!”

After saying those words…

Cold sweat was coming out from Venerable Yun Ji’s palms.

It wasn’t difficult to take out seven million top grade xuan stones but seven thousand inner cores was a humongous number. It was impossible for them to find that number within the entire Mount Hua Immortal Sect.

Before he could continue speaking…

Lei Zhen immediately said with a smile: “Senior brother Yun Ji, I need a lot of inner cores for my recent cultivation.”

Tian Lunwang also jumped forward and said with a smile: “I’m also missing quite a bit.”

Venerable Yun Ji replied: “My two junior brothers naturally won’t be missing out. But I need to be honest that so many inner cores are something my Mount Hua Immortal Sect cannot take out all at once. Please give me some more time.”

“Well…”

“It’s not that we can’t do it but you need to know there’s interest when someone borrows money. Since you can’t take out so many at once, we can give you one year of time. But the one thousand inner cores will be the principal and another one thousand will be interest,” said Lei Zhen with a greedy smile.

Venerable Yun Ji’s expression changed but he didn’t dare to say anything. He only said through clenched teeth: “Fine.”

“Hahaha…”

“Hahaha…”

The people of the ten great immortal sects were all laughing.

Han Hua and the other three also started laughing.

But those four were laughing in a frigid unsympathetic manner.

Venerable Yun Ji coldly glanced at the four.

Not long after.

The secret skills were sent over and the people from the ten great immortal sects withdrew from Mount Hua Immortal Sect.

When they were withdrawing, they were just like locusts – anything of value was taken by them!

After the ten great immortal sects left…

Mount Hua Immortal Sect became quiet.

In the main hall, Venerable Hun Yuan stepped forward and asked: “Sect Leader, what should we do with these four?”

“Kill!”

At this time…

Luo Tian appeared in Mount Hua Immortal Sect’s teleportation array.
