Chapter 811: Turmoil Arises Everywhere

As for the matter of buying rations with Sect Points, the disciples had no complaints.

After all, the Sect is now basically stable, so we can't be as casual as before.

Moreover, the price set by Ye Zhangqing can already be called very conscientious.

Look at this stuff—there's never enough; although the cheapest rations cost only one Sect Point per serving, many disciples can eat dozens of servings a day.

What's more, Sect Points are now hard to earn; the Mission Hall has no missions at all, and almost all disciples are struggling to make ends meet, penniless as can be.

After buying the rations, the disciples secretly swore that this trip to the Heavenly Feather Imperial Dynasty would definitely bring back a good sum of Sect Points.

On the square, many disciples gathered here; according to the previous registration, they will head to different locations in the Heavenly Feather Imperial Dynasty.

In batches, they will protect the safety of hundreds of millions of the Heavenly Feather Imperial Dynasty's citizens as they reach the Myriad Monster Pass.

Starship after starship rose into the sky, all carrying disciples of the Dao Yi Shengdi.

At the very moment the Dao Yi Shengdi disciples set out, the Heavenly Feather Imperial Dynasty was already ready inside.

However, such a nationwide relocation inevitably caused a stir within the Heavenly Feather Imperial Dynasty.

Although the people were grateful for the court's rewards and guarantees, they had no complaints.

But some neighboring countries, and the bandits gathered together, took this opportunity to wreak havoc continuously within the Heavenly Feather Imperial Dynasty.

They never even thought of staying in the Heavenly Feather Imperial Dynasty; they just wanted to fish in troubled waters.

Moreover, once the Heavenly Feather Imperial Dynasty moves away, this place will become ownerless, and they can then divide it up completely.

"Your Majesty, internal rebellions have erupted everywhere, and all the major armies are already overwhelmed."

Inside the Huánggōng, a minister with a bitter face said to Mu Feiyu, "The people from the Dao Yi Shengdi haven't arrived yet; for now only the court's troops are facing the rebellion, while also taking on the duty of protecting the people."

Upon hearing this, Mu Feiyu calmly replied.

"How much longer until the Dao Yi Shengdi arrives?"

"Grand Elder Wu Shou replied that at most three days, the disciples of the holy land will gradually reach all parts of the country."

"Good."

Mu Feiyu didn't say more, and the many ministers below, seeing this, also fell into silence one after another.

Three days isn't long; it passed quickly, and the Dao Yi Shengdi disciples indeed arrived at the predetermined locations on schedule.

Officials of the Heavenly Feather Imperial Dynasty had already been waiting at those places in advance.

The task of the many disciples of the Dao Yi Shengdi is to obey the orders of those Heavenly Feather Imperial Dynasty officials and cooperate with them in escorting the people to the Myriad Monster Pass.

At Rime Prefecture City, Zhao Zhengping and Xu Jie led a group of disciples as they arrived.

They were in charge of affairs in Rime Prefecture City.

Just as they entered the city, the Heavenly Feather Imperial Dynasty officials and several military commanders who had been waiting there came forward to greet them.

After exchanging pleasantries, they proceeded to discuss the plan of action.

According to the account of the Heavenly Feather Imperial Dynasty officials:

Originally there was no problem, but just a few days ago, a band of mountain bandits suddenly appeared outside Rime Prefecture City.

Their numbers were not small, reaching tens of thousands.

These bandits originally hid in the deep mountains on the border of the two countries; basically all of them had blood on their hands, each one ruthless and cruel.

Previously, the Heavenly Feather Imperial Dynasty had troops suppressing them, so these bandits didn't dare to act out.

But this time, with the Heavenly Feather Imperial Dynasty's nationwide relocation, these bandits seemed to see an opportunity and began to enter the dynasty's territory in great numbers, burning, killing, and looting everywhere.

Although the court did its utmost to suppress them, it also arranged for all the villagers' people to be placed inside the prefecture city for protection.

But these bandits simply fire a shot and move elsewhere, their whereabouts unpredictable; moreover, the court doesn't have much energy left to deal with them.

So, up to now, this band of bandits has not been wiped out.

And if we set out now, the many civilians would likely become the targets of these bandits.

Even if there are troops and Dao Yi Shengdi disciples protecting them, the sheer number of civilians means there will inevitably be weak spots—this is indeed a threat that cannot be ignored.

After patiently listening to the officials' explanation, Zhao Zhengping and Xu Jie exchanged a glance.

The two senior brothers simultaneously had the same idea.

Namely, whether these mountain bandits count as Sect Points.

"Why don't you ask the senior brother?"

"Good."

Saying this, Zhao Zhengping quickly walked out of the hall, while the Heavenly Feather Imperial Dynasty officials and commanders beside him were completely bewildered.

"What's going on?"

"Um... may I ask what the Upper Sect means by this?"

Still, the leading official whispered his question.

"Aren't we talking about the bandits? Why are we asking this now?"

Upon hearing this, Xu Jie replied.

"Don't rush, wait a moment."

Not long after, Zhao Zhengping returned, his eyes clearly smiling; seeing his expression, Xu Jie knew the matter was settled—apparently these mountain bandits also count as Sect Points, so things become simple.

Immediately, Xu Jie looked at the Heavenly Feather Imperial Dynasty officials and commanders and said confidently.

"You continue preparing; as for those bandits, leave them to us."

Huh???

I never expected Xu Jie to have such a plan; hearing this, the leading official expressed some concern.

"The Upper Sect may not know, but among these bandits there are many unaffiliated cultivators, and even some Demonic Cultivators of considerable skill are mixed in."

"Moreover, their numbers are not few; if the Upper Sect goes alone, I fear.............."

This official is worried about Xu Jie's safety, after all, Zhao Zhengping's group this time numbers only two or three hundred.

The Heavenly Feather Dynasty is vast, and the disciples of Dao Yi Shengdi are limited—each locality has only a few hundred, and some places have merely dozens.

Xu Jie and his group acting alone would be vastly outnumbered, risking danger.

According to this official, we should still follow procedure and act as planned.

Dao Yi Shengdi works with the Heavenly Feather Dynasty's army to escort the civilians.

This way, danger may still arise, but it can be kept under control to the greatest extent, losing only a few while ensuring the safety of the majority.

As for this, Xu Jie refused outright without even thinking.

「Sir need not worry, mere bandits—we will wipe them out ourselves; this also counts as eliminating a potential threat. 」

「Not bad, as the saying goes: 'Fear not the thief chief, but the thief's greed; there's no point in guarding against thieves for a thousand days.'」

「This............ 」

「All right, this matter is settled as such; the Holy Land side we will ourselves report; Sir just prepare according to the original plan. 」

They don't even give a chance to refuse—laughable, that's tens of thousands of Sect Points on the move!

Furthermore, upon hearing that there were also Demonic Cultivators, the light in Xu Jie's and Zhao Zhengping's eyes could not be contained.

Demonic Cultivators—killing one would surely net a lot of Sect Points.

For the disciples of Dao Yi Shengdi, who are already at the end of their resources and can't even afford dry rations, how could they pass up such a money‑making opportunity?

Never mind it being just a band of bandits—even if you were a million evil spirits, you'd have to be dealt with today; not even the Buddha could save you.
