794: Chapter 0794: Winning Over the People 794: Chapter 0794: Winning Over the People Yu Fangming felt an itch in his heart, having been a Loose Cultivator for so many years, he had always suffered from a lack of cultivation resources.
Now that he had finally encountered a person from a famous sect, he naturally wanted to establish a connection.
He promised Long Fei, “Brother Long, there’s nothing more to say.
Your gift of a fourth-grade pill is sothing I cannot repay.
If you need anything in the future, just give a call, and I will go through fire and water to help you.”
Daoist Huoyuan was thinking along the sa lines and, raising his hand in a fist palm salute, said, “Brother Long, I feel the sa.”
Elder Cang Shan was different from them; he was a sect leader after all and naturally a person who cared about face.
He coughed twice and asked Long Fei, “Was it your doing that struck down my disciple Guo Jun?”
Long Fei and Chu Feng looked at each other and chuckled lightly before saying honestly, “Indeed.”
Yu Fangming and Daoist Huoyuan’s eyebrows shot up, thinking that now there was a deadly feud.
Elder Cang Shan’s expression instantly turned ice-cold as he said, “Don’t you think you owe an explanation?”
Long Fei replied, “It’s quite simple; your disciple colluded with the Divine Sword Sect in an attempt to kill us and then rob of my wife.
That’s why I took action.
If you don’t believe it, you can ask your disciples.
So of them should know the truth.”
Elder Cang Shan fell silent, actually aware of the ins and outs of the matter; otherwise, he wouldn’t have sat down so calmly with Long Fei.
He brought up this matter solely for the sake of the fourth-grade pill.
“I will investigate Guo Jun’s case.
This pill is, however, compensation to our Blue Mountain Sect from you.”
Elder Cang Shan spoke his mind.
Yu Fangming and Daoist Huoyuan exchanged knowing smiles, having gone around in a big circle, they were actually acquiring the pill legitimately without needing to humble themselves before Long Fei.
Long Fei and Chu Feng could naturally hear the implications in his words and went along with it, saying, “Elder Cang Shan speaks rightly.
Guo Jun is, after all, your disciple.
Even if he deserves death, it should be for you to punish him.
This fourth-grade pill is our token of apology.
Let’s consider this matter settled today.”
He lifted his wine bowl and drank with everyone.
Once the snake at was roasted, Long Fei had it sliced and served for everyone to taste.
Lin Yingying and the others cut pieces with knife and fork, eating without any hesitation.
Hua Qianmo watched with furrowed brows, lacking any appetite.
Having received a fourth-grade pill, the three from Elder Cang Shan were anxious about how to make full use of it, naturally showing no interest in the strong-slling snake at.
They got up to take their leave, saying, “Well, we’ve said all that needs to be said, it’s ti for us to take our leave.”
“Brother Long, do keep a closer eye on the Hell Sect in the future, and do not let them cause harm to the Cultivation World again.”
“If you need anything, just call, and we brothers will definitely help out.”
Yu Fangming and Daoist Huoyuan bore no grudge against Long Fei and spoke much more cordially.
Long Fei nodded and saw them off together.
While they were drinking inside, the disciples outside kept busy.
They divided so of the Yamata no Orochi’s at among themselves to eat.
They were a bit scared at first, but after tasting it, they beca addicted.
The reason was the Essential Qi in it was simply too damn abundant.
Eating a piece was equivalent to any dicinal herb they usually consud.
A crowd of them went mad hacking with their knives and swords, and only after a good while did they manage to slice off a small piece of at.
The scales of this bizarre snake were too hard, perfectly usable as body armor.
Both sides suffered casualties that numbered more than half of their forces.
There were roughly one thousand five hundred people on the battlefield, each person took so snake at, yet by the end, more than half remained unclaid.
Elder Cang Shan left with all his disciples, and the cave imdiately felt much emptier.
Having dealt with the external enemies, Long Fei looked at the disciples on the field, now he had to deal with these internal forces and establish the authority of the Sect Hierarch.
Hell Sect had suffered heavy losses this ti, with only a little more than five hundred people remaining on the field.
Long Fei gathered them all together, with the Ten Great Yama Kings and the left and right judges standing at the very front.
Following them were the Black and White Fiends, the Soul Hook Envoys, and everyone from the Five Elents Banner.
Long Fei, Chu Feng, Lin Yingying, and others stood at the very front.
Hua Qianmo stood to the side with a complex expression on her face.
She had originally planned to temporarily harness the strength of Long Fei and Chu Feng to drive away the invaders before reconsidering her next move.
Now that she knew so information about the Secret Realm and had listened to Long Fei’s nonsense for a while, she actually began to believe his tall tales.
Their Hell Sect had always been a subordinate to the Yin Yang Sect.
Hua Qianmo followed her master’s orders strictly, doing all this in an effort to restore the Yin Yang Sect.
Given that the Yin Yang Sect had now sent a Sect Hierarch, if she disobeyed, she would lose her moral ground, and these subordinates would not follow her in further struggles.
As expected, Long Fei started coaxing the congregation, “Everyone, the Yin Yang Sect has let you suffer.
You’ve been displaced for many years, enduring the ridicule and hostility of others.
I know you’ve done many things against your will, causing chaos and making enemies everywhere.
I believe no one here wishes for that, am I right?”
People glanced at Hua Qianmo; the Corpse Brain Pills were in her hands.
Whatever they did, they had to look at Hua Qianmo’s expressions.
The Black and White Fiends did not have such concerns, and addressed the crowd, “Brothers, speak freely.
The Sect Leader has now officially returned to the Sect, and from here on, we must follow the Sect Hierarch’s orders.”
“That’s right, brothers, you need not have any other concerns.
The Sect Hierarch has co to correct the mistakes we made in the past, so speak your minds.”
The crowd sighed in relief; right there, soone complained, “Yes, Sect Hierarch, I’ve had enough.
The training at Hell Sect is too brutal; my brothers all died on the training field.
Such a training thod is utterly inhumane.”
Soone cried out, “Sect Hierarch, we are Cultivators too.
Sotis during missions, we even target the old, the young, and won; I feel like I’ve lost my humanity.
In the future, can we not undertake such tasks?”
“Sect Hierarch, I hope I’m not speaking out of turn.
To control us, the Sect Leader made us take Corpse Brain Pills.
At shortest, in a month, and at most, in half a year, we had to take an antidote, or else we’d suffer like we were infested with poisonous insects, a fate worse than death.
We all co from the lineages of famous sects; why do we need to be controlled like this?
Can’t we find another way?”
“Indeed, Sect Hierarch, this is sothing we cannot accept!”
Hua Qianmo frowned upon hearing this; she did not expect that those who were usually very respectful towards her would now speak out against her.
This gathering was quickly turning into a denunciation eting against her.
With just a few words, Long Fei had managed to win over the hearts of these people.
She glanced at Long Fei, thought to herself that he seed honest, but was actually just as sly as Chu Feng.
She turned to look at Chu Feng, and the man was leering at her with obvious ill intent.
Hua Qianmo inwardly lanted, wondering why the Heavens had suddenly sent two such villainous characters to tornt her?
Long Fei cleared his throat, waited for the group to finish complaining, and then motioned with his hand for silence before saying, “I understand all of your grievances.
Today, the first thing I shall do as Sect Hierarch is to remove the Corpse Brain Pills from everyone.
From this day forth, you are all free individuals.
No one will ever control you with the likes of Corpse Brain Pills again.”
Upon hearing this, the entire hall was shocked.
The entire crowd fell into a quiet stare, their faces filled with surprise and disbelief, not daring to speak for a long while.
