Chapter 911

Clearly, it was not just Su Fan who discovered this; Zhang Liang could naturally see it too. He did not care about the strength of the Qiyuan Sect, but he was indeed quite angry in his heart.

"Teacher, Senior, these people deserve to die, and the sect behind them also deserves to die."

Hearing the simple words of Zhang Liang and Su Fan, the six of them felt a wave of bloodthirstiness wash over them. They had not expected that the human heart could be so sinister, raising mortals like livestock to trade with those demons in exchange for cultivation resources.

This was something they had never imagined.

The cultivators they imagined were all those who upheld justice, stepping on flying swords to slay demons and eliminate evil.

However, having just left the Jiuzhou, they encountered such a disgusting thing, which instantly made them lose any good impression of the sects outside the Jiuzhou.

Since the Qiyuan Sect behaves this way, the other sects are likely no better.

No wonder the teacher spoke so coldly about the high and mighty immortals and Buddhas before. These cultivators are not even immortals or Buddhas yet, and they treat mortals like this; once they become immortals or Buddhas, they will likely be even more unscrupulous.

At this moment, the six of them were increasingly dissatisfied with the gods and Buddhas in the sky. They were not ignorant like the bottom-level commoners; having entered the Confucian school and learned knowledge, they had mostly learned how to think.

So they also saw that those gods and Buddhas in the sky were not a good thing for their human race.

No wonder that after the Great Qin unified the world, it immediately issued an order to prohibit the common people from believing in and worshipping immortals and gods.

"That's right! Teacher, why don't we attack that so-called Qiyuan Sect and wipe them out? The behavior of these people is no different from beasts."

Whether it was Xun Kai or Yuan Xu and the others, all had murderous intent on their faces, clearly enraged to the extreme.

"You stinky brats, you only know how to be reckless. It was like this when you went to deal with a few wolf demons before, and it's still like this now, without considering the consequences at all."

"If we wipe out the Qiyuan Sect, what will happen to the common people under their rule? Without them to deter the small demons and monsters within a radius of thousands of miles, they could devour these millions of common people clean."

Zhang Liang said coldly. These students were still too young, doing things entirely based on hot-bloodedness without considering the consequences. Their lack of careful thought would ultimately lead to a painful price.

Although he was naturally angry at the Qiyuan Sect and could not help but feel some murderous intent in his heart regarding their behavior,

they were, after all, the protectors of the mortals within this thousand-mile radius. Once the Qiyuan Sect was gone, this area would inevitably be overrun by demons.

Those mortals would be in danger; it would likely take no more than a few days for them to become food for those demons.

As for running away, although the Southern Continent is the base of the human race, it is still a place with vast land and sparse population. Beyond the cities, the vast majority of the area is wilderness; where could they escape to?

It is full of monsters and small demons everywhere, and ordinary mortals have no power to resist when they encounter them.

No matter how sinister the Qiyuan Sect is, at least while they are there, those small demons and monsters dare not easily attack the cities of mortals.

"Are we just going to let the Qiyuan Sect go like this?"

Hearing this, the few of them felt somewhat dejected. They were all clever people, and after Zhang Liang's reminder, they understood instantly.

They had previously thought about wiping out the Qiyuan Sect, which was indeed a bit reckless. Not to mention that not everyone in the Qiyuan Sect had sinister intentions, and over the years, they had also protected those mortals.

Moreover, if the Qiyuan Sect were really gone, then the mortals within this thousand-mile radius would likely suffer, and they would become the biggest pushers behind the deaths of those mortals.

But thinking of this, they felt even more uncomfortable.

Because they clearly knew the sinister behavior of these people, yet they could do nothing but watch. If it weren't for their sudden arrival this time, the county town before their eyes would likely have become a dead city.

They did not believe that those few wolf demons would show any mercy.

Ten thousand at a time—who knows how many trades the Qiyuan Sect and Tianlang Mountain have made, and how many mortals have died in the mouths of these demon clans.

"Of course we cannot let these people go."

Zhang Liang also had murderous intent in his heart. These people trade humans with the demon clan, which makes them traitors to the race. If he hadn't encountered such people, that would be one thing, but since he had, he would not let them go.

"Brother Su, it seems we need to stay here for a while."

Zhang Liang already had the intent to kill.

Hearing this, Su Fan instantly understood the other's plan.

He smiled lightly and said, "I see that mountain over there has beautiful scenery; it can be used as a temporary Daoist temple."

"Haha! Beautiful scenery? Brother Su, with your divine abilities, even an ordinary mountain would likely become a blessed land in your hands."

Zhang Liang had seen with his own eyes how Tao Mountain changed from an ordinary mountain range into a Daoist spiritual land.

Outside Tao Mountain, one couldn't feel much, but once at the peak and in Su Fan's cave dwelling, he could feel the spiritual energy of heaven and earth contained within, which was not inferior at all to the holy land where his teacher went into seclusion.

Zhang Liang knew what Tao Mountain was like originally, but now that it had become like that, it was clear that all of this was Su Fan's doing. He had also personally seen him setting up various arrays on Tao Mountain.

In fact, Zhang Liang had even learned those few secret techniques of his.

Su Fan did not hide anything at all, a point that Zhang Liang admired greatly. In his eyes, there were very few things in the entire Little Sage Manor that could compare to the other's secret techniques.

Such precious things, yet the other party passed them on without any concern.

Although there was much exchange among the Hundred Schools of Thought during this prosperous era, with people passing things to one another,

the things spread were mostly ordinary knowledge and techniques; those people would not easily pass on their family secrets.

It was just that when the masters of the various schools left, they could realize their own things from the little bit of knowledge passed down from other schools.

This also made later generations think that the Hundred Schools of Thought were broad-minded.

When Laozi instructed Confucius back then, it was actually just some simple knowledge; it was Confucius who, relying on his astonishing comprehension, realized the supreme learning of Confucianism and became a sage in one fell swoop, becoming a Confucian sage.

Compared to those masters, Su Fan felt no different to him.

To pass on such secret techniques so casually—this level of broad-mindedness is likely only comparable to that of a few sages.

Zhang Liang also spent quite some time comprehending the few secret techniques Su Fan passed to him, but he did not study them deeply, even though the techniques were excellent.

However, he was not that kind of Daoist disciple.
