Chapter 1413

"I'm telling you, be careful; the survival of the sect is all on you. Come back immediately and explain things clearly."

The words were almost identical, and even their expressions were quite similar.

Faced with the scolding of their Sect Masters, the Saints weren't too surprised, because this was something they had long anticipated.

One by one, they said with calm expressions.

"Sect Master, this matter cannot be explained clearly in a short time. Why don't you come to Wanyaoguan yourself?"

Hearing this, the Sect Masters thought about it, and under the persuasion of the Elders, they finally nodded.

Hanging up the array, everyone turned around and returned to the City Lord's Mansion, telling Facing Qi Xiong exactly what had happened just now.

After listening to everyone's words, Facing Qi Xiong asked unhurriedly.

"If your Sect Masters do not agree to submit to my Dao Yi Sect, what will you do?"

Hearing this, everyone replied without hesitation, full of confidence.

"Absolutely impossible. Please rest assured, Upper Sect; we will definitely be able to convince our Senior Brothers."

"Then I'll leave it to you."

"Yes."

Everyone looked confident and not worried at all, so Facing Qi Xiong simply left the matter for them to handle.

As for the thoughts of the Elders, they were also very simple: eat a meal first and then talk.

Several days later, the Sect Masters of the major sects in Wanyaoguan arrived in Wanyaoguan one after another.

At first, they were all burning with anger, looking like they were there to hold someone accountable, but after being taken by their Junior Brothers to have a meal, they were completely stunned.

Afterwards, their attitudes underwent a 180-degree turn, coupled with the persuasion of the Junior Brothers on the side.

"Senior Brother, you say, what did we get from following the Qingtian Holy Land in the past? They made us go all out, and they took all the benefits themselves."

"But what about following the Dao Yi Sect? Not to mention anything else, just tell me if these three meals a day are fragrant or not."

Hearing this, the Sect Masters looked hesitant, but finally said submissively.

"Fragrant."

"That's right. And also, now that things have reached this point, even if we defect back to the Qingtian Holy Land, not to mention whether the Dao Yi Sect will let us go, even if they did, with the Qingtian Holy Land's character, is it possible they would give us a good outcome?"

"By then, they'll probably just find some random excuse to finish us off."

"Besides, the Dao Yi Sect is not weak; they have Great Saint experts. And Senior Brother, you have also seen the Master of the Yunluo Holy Land and the Master of the Jade Pool Holy Land; they have a deep relationship with the Dao Yi Sect. Who will win is still unknown."

"Therefore, the Dao Yi Sect may not necessarily lose, and following the Dao Yi Sect will definitely be beneficial to the future development of our sect."

After such a speech, the major Sect Masters were stunned; it seemed there was some truth to it.

"Let me think about it."

They didn't refuse directly as before, but fell into deep thought.

Seeing this, several Elders smiled at each other; it seemed their Senior Brothers had changed their minds.

They had originally come to hold someone accountable, but in the end, all the Sect Masters were successfully persuaded.

Firstly, the food was really delicious; it was simply a divine taste. At the thought of being able to eat such delicacies every day, the hearts of the Sect Masters were as sweet as if they had been smeared with honey.

Secondly, it was the fear of the Qingtian Holy Land. There was one thing the Junior Brothers said that was correct: things had reached this point, so even if they gave the Qingtian Holy Land an explanation, would they accept it?

Even if nothing happened for now, what about later? If a Holy Land wants to deal with you, they can just find any excuse.

Conversely, following the Dao Yi Sect, once they succeeded, they would all have contributed.

Considering all the above, in the end, the Sect Masters actually defected directly.

Under the leadership of their Junior Brothers, they took the initiative to pay respects to Facing Qi Xiong and expressed their loyalty.

To this, Facing Qi Xiong naturally accepted gladly.

Good heavens, they asked the major sects for an explanation, but in the end, the remaining people of the major sects also defected to the Dao Yi Sect one after another.

For a time, more than half of the affiliated sects of the Qingtian Holy Land had all thrown themselves into the embrace of the Dao Yi Sect.

I don't know if the three Holy Emperor ancestors of the Qingtian Holy Land would vomit blood if they knew about this.

But none of this was important; now that the Qingtian Holy Land had declared war on the Dao Yi Sect, everyone had to take it seriously.

"Relying on the defenses of Wanyaoguan, we have the strength to fight, but the key is that Uncle Wang Man and Uncle Yuan Cang must succeed in their breakthrough, and Second Junior Brother and the others need to arrive in Central Continent as soon as possible."

There were still too few people; not to mention Holy Emperor experts, the disciples were only personal disciples, which was definitely not enough to contend with the entire Qingtian Holy Land.

"Calculating the time, Second Junior Brother and the others will probably take at least five more days to arrive."

Dongzhou is not close to Central Continent; even if Wu Shou and the others set off immediately after receiving Facing Qi Xiong's order, it would take at least five days.

Hearing this, everyone nodded; it seemed they still needed to hold on for a few days.

Just as everyone was planning how to deal with the Qingtian Holy Land, Wu Shou and the others, who were originally scheduled to arrive in at least five days—

In the middle of the night, starships cut through the sky of Central Continent, rushing toward Wanyaoguan like meteors.

"Damn, what the hell is this?"

"Looks like starships."

"Since when do your starships catch fire?"

Of the hundreds of starships, more than half were on fire.

This was the result of long-term high-speed travel, but even so, the disciples had no intention of stopping.

"I said, shouldn't we stop? The starships are on fire!"

The Elder in charge of controlling the starship looked helpless; damn it, they're already on fire, and you still want to push forward?

But the disciples couldn't care less; besides, the fire wasn't big, so there was no need to worry at all.

"Elder, don't worry, just a few sparks, it doesn't matter."

Hearing this, the Elder looked at the stern of the ship with a complex expression; do you really think I'm blind?

Damn it, the butt of this ship is almost burning, and you tell me it's just sparks? Since when do your sparks get this big?

In the middle of the night over Central Continent, many people saw a scene they would never forget for the rest of their lives.

Starships with flames at their tails were speeding across the sky as if their lives depended on it; the flames were stretched out long, but the people on the starships seemed to be completely oblivious.

After another night of high-speed flight, by the next morning, the Dao Yi Sect's starship fleet finally arrived at Wanyaoguan. While still far away, the disciples couldn't help but shout excitedly.

"Elder Changqing, we're here!"
