Chapter 1353

Facing Qi Xiong's inquiry, the group of cultivators nodded firmly.

There was no way; the taste was just too fragrant, and three meals a day—who could resist this?

Plus, everyone was the same before, but now the Fenghe Sect got to eat, which made others feel even worse, and the balance in their hearts was instantly overturned.

Combined with the fact that the Qingtian Sacred Ground had always treated the affiliated forces below poorly.

Except for taking benefits, they basically never gave any help, and even when some affiliated forces encountered a crisis, the Qingtian Sacred Ground would just send a disciple to pretend to mediate, and in the end, they would take away a lot of cultivation resources.

To put it bluntly, for the Qingtian Sacred Ground, these people didn't have much loyalty, more of it was fear.

Before, they had no choice, but now, following the Dao One Sect, not to mention eating big fish and meat, the Dao One Sect's performance was completely different from the Qingtian Sacred Ground's. There was absolutely no reason to persist.

"Please, Upper Sect, take us in."

Seeing that Qi Xiong and the others didn't reply, but instead fell into deep thought, the leading few Saints immediately knelt down and said with sincere attitudes.

Seeing this, Qi Xiong and his group looked at each other, completely not expecting things to develop like this.

But in this way, could it be considered that they had directly taken down most of the Qingtian Sacred Ground's affiliated forces?

"Your Sect Masters are not in the Ten Thousand Demon Pass, do they know about this?"

"Reporting to the Upper Sect, our Sect Masters naturally won't refuse, and we won't give them a chance to refuse."

Hmm???

Why did this sound so familiar? Right, the Fenghe Sect said exactly that.

Qi Xiong and the others' gazes became more and more complex. Did these guys go find the Fenghe Sect? Even the wording was exactly the same.

In fact, it was indeed so; the Fenghe Sect had contributed some strength to everyone being able to make up their minds so quickly.

Accepting these affiliated forces wasn't a bad thing for the Dao One Sect; not only could they get a considerable amount of cultivation resources stably for a long time, but it could also let the Dao One Sect stand firm as soon as possible.

Not to mention the long term, just looking at the current Ten Thousand Demon Pass, it could basically be said to have fallen into the hands of the Dao One Sect.

Even if the Qingtian Sacred Ground wanted them to leave at that time, it would probably be impossible.

How does the saying go? It's easy to invite a god but hard to send one away. You invited me into the Dao One Sect, and wanting me to go out again—that's a different story.

After thinking for a moment, Qi Xiong made a decision.

"Fine, I agree to your request, but don't spread the word for now, and don't inform the Qingtian Sacred Ground. It's good for both you and my Dao One Sect, understand?"

Qi Xiong did this because he intended to hide it for a period of time. If the Qingtian Sacred Ground knew now, the situation would inevitably get out of control.

Although Uncle Yu Mo had already broken through to the Great Emperor Realm, compared to the Qingtian Sacred Ground, there was still a gap.

Only when Uncle Wang Man and Uncle Yuan Cang also broke through to the Great Emperor Realm could the Dao One Sect truly be considered qualified to contend with the Qingtian Sacred Ground.

By that time, even if the Qingtian Sacred Ground knew, the Dao One Sect would have the strength to fight.

Hearing this, the group of cultivators naturally nodded quickly.

After giving some instructions, he let everyone disperse and told them to come to the City Lord's Mansion at mealtime tomorrow.

This sentence made everyone beam with joy; wasn't this exactly what they were craving?

Moreover, Qi Xiong's generosity made everyone feel more loyalty in their hearts.

Comparing the two, the Qingtian Sacred Ground was just a Pixiu that only took in and didn't give out—what kind of thing was that?

"Sigh, defecting to the Dao One Sect is indeed a wise decision."

"Exactly, and the Dao One Sect doesn't seem to fear the Qingtian Sacred Ground. With the Dao One Sect's protection, we don't need to worry too much in the future."

"Don't talk about this yet, don't forget the Upper Sect's instructions; keep it hidden if you need to."

"We, we know the severity."

The major forces returned one after another. Soon it was late at night, however, the Saints of several forces actually received a message from the Qingtian Sacred Master at this time.

Originally looking forward to tomorrow's delicacies, they suddenly saw the imaging array disk light up. Seeing that the other party was actually the Qingtian Sacred Master, for a moment, these few Saints were all stunned.

It's so late, why is this old thing looking for us?

Shocked in their hearts, they remained calm on the surface, still saluting respectfully.

"Greetings, Sacred Master."

"Mm, I have something for you to do this time............."

Facing these people, the Qingtian Sacred Master's attitude was very indifferent, and he didn't exchange pleasantries, directly stating his intention.

But the more they listened, the more complex their hearts became.

This old thing actually cooperated with the demon race? And wanted them to cooperate with the demon race, secretly open the Ten Thousand Demon Pass at that time, let the demon race kill into the pass, and kill the Dao One Sect group?

Is this damn thing crazy? You are a human Great Emperor, a Sacred Ground Sacred Master, and you actually went to unite with the demon race?

They were shocked. After simply finishing the matter, the Qingtian Sacred Master said in a deep voice.

"Do you all understand?"

"Oh oh, Sacred Master, rest assured, we understand."

"Mm, handle this matter well. After it's done, I won't be stingy with rewards."

"Thank you, Sacred Master."

"Mm."

Still rewards? As the Qingtian Sacred Master hung up the call, these few people were left standing on the spot.

This damn thing is truly crazy, actually joining forces with the demon race.

If it were before, although they would have complex hearts, they would probably still choose to execute the order, after all, they had no choice. But now, knowing this, the few people didn't have much hesitation and quickly went out, rushing towards the City Lord's Mansion.

Inside the Qingtian Sacred Ground, after doing all this, the Qingtian Sacred Master, who had calmed down, sneered.

"Dao One Sect, let's see how you survive walking out of the Ten Thousand Demon Pass this time. This Ten Thousand Demon Pass is the burial ground I have chosen for you."

The Qingtian Sacred Master was full of confidence, feeling that his plan was perfect and flawless.

But what he didn't expect was that just when he thought so, inside the Ten Thousand Demon Pass City Lord's Mansion, Qi Xiong looked at the few Saints in front of him and asked suspiciously.

"It's so late, you came here to..............."

"Upper Sect, we want to report."

Hmm???

What was perfect in the Qingtian Sacred Master's heart had already been completely exposed to Qi Xiong at the turn of a head, and it was in every detail.

Before it even started, the Qingtian Sacred Master's bottom line had already been sold clean by the people below.

No, these people could no longer be considered the Qingtian Sacred Master's people, but the Dao One Sect's people.

They told Qi Xiong exactly what the Qingtian Sacred Master had just said. They thought that after hearing this, Qi Xiong would be furious, or at least scold the Qingtian Sacred Master.

But who would have thought that after they finished speaking, they didn't get a response from Qi Xiong for a long time. They looked up in confusion, and at one glance, they were all stunned.

This expression isn't right, is it? Qi Xiong not only didn't have any anger or tension, but his eyes were even glowing with red light. The excitement and expectation in his eyes couldn't be hidden at all.

The few looked at each other—what the hell is this situation?
