Chapter 531: Huang Ji Sect Joins

Huang Ji Sect was the first sect to arrive apart from Putuo Temple, Guigu, and Qing Yun Sect; it could be said to be as expected.

After all, the current Huang Ji Sect, if that old bastard Huang Tian wants to secure his position as Sect Master, then, like Qing Yun Sect, aligning with Dao Yi Sect is the best choice.

Moreover, given Huang Tian's personality, he will definitely do that.

In the main hall, Qi Xiong and others received Huang Tian and the other Huang Ji Sect Saints.

This old bastard actually has some tricks; upon taking office, he also purged a batch of Ji Wushuang's confidants.

This caused the already heavily injured Huang Ji Sect's strength to weaken again.

It seems he had planned from the start to learn from Qing Yun Sect.

Precisely because of this, the whole process was not difficult; Huang Tian voluntarily expressed loyalty, and Qi Xiong had no reason to object.

After all, affiliated forces are just a title in name.

Unlike the complexity of merging into Dao Yi Sect.

This is also why Putuo Temple and Guigu successively expressed their willingness to join Dao Yi Sect, yet Qi Xiong never agreed.

Affiliated forces are affiliated forces; joining Dao Yi Sect is joining Dao Yi Sect; their meanings are completely different.

Both sides reached an agreement, and Huang Tian readily agreed; apparently he had made full preparations, directly preparing ten years of tribute to hand over to Dao Yi Sect.

This time Qi Xiong didn't set up a banquet, after all Huang Ji Sect cannot compare to Putuo Temple and Guigu, at least in terms of loyalty they are not on the same level, so there's no need for these.

But since Qi Xiong didn't arrange it, the daily commotion at Fàn diǎn was naturally impossible to hide from the Huang Ji Sect people.

Out of curiosity, the matter of the Canteen was known to the Huang Ji Sect people that same day.

Knowing that the sect was just for free meals, Huang Tian looked puzzled at his junior brother ahead and said.

"Are you sure you're having free meals?"

"Yeah, and the Fàn diǎn is fixed every day; not only Dao Yi Sect disciples, but even Chen Qingyu, Juexin, and all the ghost kings of Guigu seem to participate."

"What are they going to join in the fun for?"

Huang Tian frowned and said, "We're all Saints, what's there to eat?"

Strange and odd, so the next day, Huang Tian led the Huang Ji Sect Saints and also rushed to the Canteen.

Looking at the crowd arguing incessantly, Huang Tian curiously stepped forward and asked Chen Qingyu.

"Sect Master Chen........"

He also had some acquaintance with Chen Qingyu; originally he intended to step forward and inquire, but Chen Qingyu thought Huang Tian came to seize a position; although he is a Saint, damn it, the Dao Yi Sect only gives these outsider Saints a measly ten spots.

Putuo Temple, Guigu, and Qing Yun Sect—this time the Saints that came are over twenty each, so the intensity of competition can be imagined.

Now with the addition of Huang Ji Sect, Chen Qingyu naturally took Huang Tian as someone coming to grab food; without a word, he directly slapped out a palm.

"Get out of the way."

Huang Tian, who had just opened his mouth, was instantly stunned by Chen Qingyu's sudden palm.

What the hell is wrong with you? I just came up to ask a question, what do you mean by attacking directly?

However, Chen Qingyu gave him no chance; after missing the first strike, he immediately threw out another palm.

"Damn it."

Gritting his teeth and cursing, Huang Tian also had to fight back, and the two instantly went into battle.

The Huang Ji Sect Saints beside them, watching this scene, were all dumbfounded.

Wasn't it just supposed to ask a question? How did they end up fighting?

"Should we join in?"

"Or should we wait and see?"

Neither going up nor staying down was right; fortunately, in the end Chen Qingyu merely restrained Huang Tian, then stopped attacking, threw out a puzzling remark, and then left happily.

"Hmph, this sect's quota is also something you dare to covet."

"What the hell have I coveted?"

Upon hearing that, Huang Tian was practically cursing like a dog; he damn well just wanted to ask a question.

However, fortunately, after finishing the meal, the Huang Ji Sect people finally figured it out; it was actually about grabbing a position.

Moreover, the food in the Dao Yi Sect Canteen is really fragrant.

Without a doubt, the Huang Ji Sect also joined the free-meal army, participating in grabbing food.

However, their affiliated strength is not together with Dao Yi Sect, and will not affect Dao Yi Sect disciples.

Moreover, compared to Dao Yi Sect's own members, their competitive pressure is much greater.

This can be seen from the fact that Saints like Chen Qingyu, Huang Tian, and Juexin all need to compete for positions.

As fellow Saints, Hong Zun and his group don't need to compete; they have food at every meal.

That day, when Huang Tian finally got to eat, his eyes went wide, he kept exclaiming, and he also understood why Chen Qingyu and others were so frenzied.

The four affiliated forces together amount to only a thousand portions.

Ye Zhangqing only needs to make an extra thousand portions each day.

What no one expected was that after Huang Ji Sect, the second force to arrive would actually be Luo Xia Sect.

That day, the Steward came to report to Qi Xiong, saying that Luo Xia Sect had already arrived outside Shanmen.

Hearing this, Qi Xiong and the others all furrowed their brows; Luo Xia Sect actually arrived this early?

If we say that in the whole Dongzhou, only Luo Xia Sect could still pose a slight threat to Dao Yi Sect.

No, we can't say there is any threat; we can only say Luo Xia Sect is the existence whose strength is second only to Dao Yi Sect nowadays.

Moreover, looking at all human forces in Dongzhou, only Luo Xia Sect and Dao Yi Sect have a Great Saint Realm elder ancestor.

Demon Race, evil spirits, and demonic paths—these don't count.

As for Qing Yun Sect and Huang Ji Sect, they no longer have a Great Saint elder to guard them.

I originally thought that this time's four-sect grand competition would involve a little rivalry with Luo Xia Sect, but I never expected Luo Xia Sect to arrive so early.

Did Su Luoxing come in person?

Yes, and almost all the Saints of the Luo Xia Sect have arrived.

Such a big show?

All the Saints have come; what are they planning to do?

Everyone was momentarily unable to figure out Su Luoxing's thoughts, but since they've come, naturally they want to meet.

According to reception etiquette, Su Luoxing's party was invited into the Dao Yi Sect, but when they saw the two elders beside Su Luoxing in the main hall, Qi Xiong was momentarily stunned.

How did both of the Luo Xia Sect's Old Ancestors come?

One is an old man with red long hair, his body surrounded by a strong deathly aura yet stalwart in build; the other is an old woman with white hair but delicate, fair skin.

Seeing these two, Qi Xiong voluntarily rose to return the salute.

Greetings, Senior Huo Yan, Senior Cai Xia.

The old man is named Huo Yan; he is Su Luoxing's master. The old woman is named Cai Xia; she is Huo Yan's dao partner and also counts as Su Luoxing's master's wife.

The status of these two in the Luo Xia Sect is the same as that of Yu Mo and the three.

Therefore, Qi Xiong remained very courteous toward them; after the salute, he immediately invited the two to take the seats of honor.

Although the Dao Yi Sect now fears nothing from the Luo Xia Sect, the two are after all Great Saint Old Ancestors, and the proper respect must still be shown; this is respect for strength.

But why did Su Luoxing have these two come out? What does it mean?
