Chapter 138 Dealing with the Qingfeng Sect
The crowd watching around were instantly excited when they saw this scene, and the previous gloom was swept away.
"Great! That evil thief Ye Qinlang has finally been brought to justice!!!"
"Thanks to the help from the seniors, otherwise we would never be able to compete with them with our strength."
"Senior, you are so virtuous and respected. You have saved us once again!"
The creatures of the four tribes bowed to Huai Yan one after another, expressing their gratitude for his life-saving grace.
Huai Yan's face was solemn. He shook his head slightly and said in a deep voice, "No need to be so polite, everyone. It's just a small favor, not worth mentioning."
He looked solemn and spoke in a low tone.
"Evil demons are rampant these days, and the Demonic Abyss is about to open. I am willing to sacrifice myself to defend the Heavenly Cang! I am willing to share life and death with you, and advance and retreat together!"
Huai Yan's words were resounding, like the sound of a huge bell, resounding throughout the heavens and earth, and echoing in everyone's heart for a long time.
Everyone was moved to tears and their hearts were filled with emotion.
"Drive out the evil spirits and protect the Heaven!"
"Drive out the evil spirits and protect the Heaven!"
"We will swear to follow Senior Huai until death, devoting all our energy and dedication until our death!!!"
"Even if it means going through fire and water, I will do it!"
"I swear to follow Senior Huai until death and defend the Tiancang Continent!"
At this moment.
The emotions of the great cultivators and monks from the four tribes of humans, ghosts, demons and monsters were all aroused. They were filled with passion, raised their weapons high and issued deafening shouts.
Their eyes were burning with reverence as they stared at the two handsome young men standing in the void, their eyes filled with awe and gratitude.
………………
However, unlike the excited crowd.
The thousands of elders and disciples of Qingfeng Sect who were rescued from Yun Yance by Huai Yan were now pale and collapsed on the ground, kneeling and crying.
"I know I'm wrong, and I beg you to forgive me for the sake of our past friendship."
"Yes, yes... Senior, please forgive us. From now on, we promise not to do it again. We will follow you at your service and do our best to serve you."
"Brother Huaiyan, we were wrong. Please forgive our mistakes. We will never dare to do it again!!!"
"Senior Huai Yan, the past is our fault. We dare not ask for your forgiveness. We ask you to kill us or cut us into pieces, but we will not complain at all!"
In the past, they were very cold towards Huai Yan, and even joined forces with several direct disciples of Qingyun Peak to slander Huai Yan.
But now, thanks to Huai Yan's generosity, he was rescued! !
Or maybe Huai Yan didn't come to rescue them on purpose, but rescued them in order to save the people of Tiancang Continent.
But no matter what, Huai Yan is their savior.
This alone is enough to make everyone in the Qingfeng Sect feel ashamed.
How did they treat Huai Yan in the past?
In addition to insults, bullying, ridicule and mockery, there was also endless cold staring, long-term deprivation of food, and making things difficult for him everywhere.
Eventually, Huai Yan and the people from Lianqi Peak were forced to leave Qingfeng Sect...
Thinking back on what they had done, everyone in the Qingfeng Sect wished they could find a deep pit to bury themselves in, so they would never appear before Huai Yan again.
The Qingfeng Sect group, led by Elder Luo Ji and Tian, were filled with shame and just wanted to find a crack in the ground to hide.
Huai Yan's face was as gloomy as water, and he glanced at them indifferently.
He stared at the elders and disciples of Qingfeng Sect who were kneeling at his feet with tears streaming down their faces, his face expressionless.
Among these people, there are many who curry favor with the powerful and change their attitude according to the situation.
Huai Yan had endured a lot of cold words and cold stares from these people during his two lifetimes in the sect. He was unwilling to pay any attention to them, wanting to let them suffer the consequences.
After all, he is not a saint. How could he still smile after being insulted and belittled?
However, when Huai Yan's gaze fell on Luo Ji and Elder Tian, his pupils suddenly shrank.
Whether in the past life or the present life, Luo Ji, the leader of the Law Enforcement Peak, is a person who cannot distinguish between right and wrong, fears Yun Ji like a tiger, and obeys his orders blindly.
Huai Yan was trapped in the Black Wind Cliff several times, and he was there every time.
But he knew clearly that it was the fault of the group of direct disciples of Qingyun Peak, and Huai Yan was just being wronged.
However, because he was afraid of the sect leader, he did not dare to stand up and find out the truth and fulfill his responsibilities as the leader of the Law Enforcement Peak.
This caused Qingfeng Sect to become a place where Yun Ji had the final say in persecuting his disciples.
It can be said that the Law Enforcement Peak eventually became an empty shell and decoration, and Luo Jishi cannot escape the blame.
Elder Tian beside him had always been dissatisfied with Yun Ji and Qingyun Peak because Yun Ji had allowed Qi Yu, Chu Daoba and Su Shangqing to kill Granny Hua and let them go unpunished.
He felt deeply guilty towards Huai Yan and Granny Hua, and helped Huai Yan openly and secretly.
Huai Yan was silent for a moment, then slowly spoke in a steady voice, "As a fellow disciple, I can give you a chance to mend your ways. I hope you will take good care of yourself."
Upon hearing what Huai Yan said, Luo Ji and Elder Tian were both overjoyed.
He hurriedly looked up at Huai Yan, feeling grateful, and knelt down to kowtow in thanks.
"Thank you for your generosity, Senior..."
"Thank you, senior, for forgiving our past disrespect..."
Everyone in the Qingfeng Sect spoke respectfully and with an extremely humble attitude. Seeing that Huai Yan was not angry, they all felt relieved and breathed a sigh of relief.
Huai Yan interrupted everyone and said coldly, "Qingfeng Sect will be handed over to Elder Tian from now on. You must not do anything that harms the world or morality again. We cultivators should protect the people and uphold justice. Anyone who acts against the right path will be severely punished."
Huai Yan looked around at everyone with sharp eyes, and his powerful aura made people dare not look directly at him.
Elder Tian quickly led the others in responding, "Following the senior's instructions, I will do my utmost to rectify the Qingfeng Sect and return it to the right path. As for those villains who assisted Qingyun Peak in the past and disrespected the senior, I will bring them to justice and send them to the Demon Abyss to guard it for a hundred years!!!"
"Luo Ji can't distinguish between good and evil, and he's been a mere figurehead, wronging many disciples! I wish to remove him from his position as the Leader of Law Enforcement Peak and sentence him to eternally guard the Demonic Abyss, with no escape possible. I will also reselect the seven Leaders of the Peaks and establish new patrol teams to rectify the Qingfeng Sect's conduct!"
As soon as he finished speaking, someone in the crowd turned pale and fainted on the ground!
Luo Ji's face was sad. Although he was unwilling, he had no choice but to nod in agreement.
"I, the younger generation, fully understand that I was foolish in the past. I dare not ask for forgiveness from you, senior. I will fulfill my duties conscientiously and guard the Demonic Abyss. I will not allow the monsters to take advantage of me!!!"
Huai Yan nodded slightly and said no more.
He knew very well that the Qingfeng Sect had deep-seated problems.
Although Elder Tian is willing to make changes, the road ahead will certainly be bumpy.
However, he has done his best and is willing to give them a chance to reform themselves out of consideration for their fellow disciples.
As for what will happen in the future, it depends on their own luck.
Everyone in the Qingfeng Sect had mixed feelings, some were in awe of Huai Yan, while others were filled with gratitude.
They knew very well that after the drastic changes that Qingfeng Sect had gone through, it would be difficult for it to regain its former glory!
Whether it will eventually move towards light or continue to decline, only time will reveal the answer.
Regardless of the outcome...
All of this has nothing to do with Huai Yan.
He has already reached the pinnacle of the world's avenues, becoming an existence that they can never reach even if they spend their entire lives trying.
…………
The cultivators from the other four clans all remained silent about Huai Yan's handling of the Qingfeng Sect, but their hearts were filled with turmoil.
They originally thought that Huai Yan would kill his former sect members and put to death those fellow disciples who insulted him, but they did not expect that he would give them a chance to mend their ways and give everyone in Qingfeng Sect a glimmer of hope.
This magnanimity and broad-mindedness are truly admirable.
All the major sects, bigwigs of aristocratic families and even cultivators of the four clans were full of respect and admired Huai Yan even more.
In his heart, he cursed Yun Ji and the other people from Qingyun Peak, calling them blind and heartless!
It was not until today that Jun Xiuyuan realized the hardships Huai Yan had gone through over the years.
His eyes were cold as he looked down at the people from the Qingfeng Sect below, as if he was looking at a group of dead people.
He suppressed the strangeness in his eyes, turned around and looked at Huai Yan with a look of pity, his eyes slightly red, and said softly: "Yan Yan, do you need me to get rid of them for you!"
Jun Xiuyuan knew very well that Huai Yan was a kind-hearted person, but when he thought of the suffering Huai Yan had endured in the sect, he wished he could tear these people below into pieces immediately.
These people dared to treat his beloved one, whom he cherished like a treasure, in this way. They deserved to die.
The man had a stern face, a fierce murderous look between his brows, and a dangerous aura emanating from his entire body. It was chilling.
The air around seemed to freeze and the temperature dropped suddenly.
Everyone was silent, with their heads bowed, not daring to say a word.
The people of Qingfeng Sect were even more panicked, and they all turned their eyes to Huai Yan with horror on their faces.
It is difficult to tell whether Jun Xiuyuan is good or evil, it is like the arrival of a god of death.
The pressure emanating from him is frightening.
They had no doubt that as long as Huai Yan agreed, Jun Xiuyuan would take their lives immediately!
Huai Yan's expression was calm, but he shook his head slightly.
If the world was peaceful and prosperous at this time, Huai Yan would have plenty of time to deal with these people.
However, the reality is that the seals of the eight realms are loosening, and the enemy of the Demon Abyss is at hand. How can he only care about personal grudges?
Once both sides descend upon the Tiancang Realm at the same time, there will probably be very few people who can truly survive.
And that will be an unparalleled catastrophe that will destroy the entire Tiancang Continent!
Jun Xiuyuan frowned and asked doubtfully, "Yan Yan?"
He stared at Huai Yan's beautiful face, seeming to want to say something but stopping himself.
Huai Yan smiled slightly and interrupted him, saying, "Xiuyuan, thank you for your kindness. But we need people right now. It would be better to let them join us in resisting the Demon Abyss and protecting the Tiancang Continent!"
His figure was as straight as a pine tree, his black hair fell like a waterfall, his eyes were as bright as stars, and he looked into the distance at the vast sky.
"Yun Zhonghe has escaped from the Eight Realms with the evil spirit. Perhaps we are about to face a fierce battle!"
Huai Yan had just finished speaking.
The barrier of the ancient evil-killing formation was suddenly disturbed by an evil aura.
The faces of the people below changed drastically, they cried out in shock, and looked into the void in panic.
