The Journey of Immortal Cultivation Chapter 681 - 385: No Longer Human

The first batch of Ningxiang Dew was separately gifted to Fengtian Prefecture, Guangcheng Palace, as well as several neighboring powers. Then, Ning Yu unexpectedly beca silent, only urging his subordinates to expand production, stockpiling all the Ningxiang Dew instead of selling it in large quantities as originally planned.

After that, he changed his tune, ntioning that he had sent demons to deliver Jade Marrow to the whistle, and entered into an agreent with the Cloud Tiger Trading Team, maintaining business interactions in the future.

The next afternoon, she received the second ssage from an Earth Yin Child. The ssage was from Miluo, but it did not bring good news.

Hua Wenkai, the Vice Sect Leader of Guangcheng Palace, suddenly fell into a demonic possession during his seclusion and perished violently. Who would believe that a Mahayana cultivator would fall into demonic possession? He had served as Vice Sect Leader for over a hundred years, so naturally, his direct lineage’s influence saw Grandmaster Hua’s suspicious death as the beginning of their decline, unwilling to accept this.

A coincidence that Hua Wenkai was known for his upright personality, constantly at odds with another Vice Sect Leader, Qiu Chuyuan. Hua’s followers naturally associated Hua Wenkai’s death with him. After all, the Immortal Sect is not a court with smooth-running laws and decrees. With more people talking, the tongues wagged, and after a few improper words from both sides, they started fighting fiercely.

This matter naturally alard the new Sect Leader, Feng Wenbo, who hurried over to diate, and over a dozen lives had already been claid in the conflict.

Feng Wenbo, cunning and resourceful, demonstrated the thunderous authority of a Sect Leader, scolding those who needed to be scolded, penalizing those who had to be penalized, and appeasing those who needed consoling. Aside from committing to thoroughly investigate the cause of Hua Wenkai’s death, he also openly stated that the instigators of the turmoil on that day would be punished severely and urged the majority to discern right from wrong and let go of hatred...

To compensate for the loss caused by Hua Wenkai’s demise, Feng Wenbo picked soone from the sa lineage to take over his position as Vice Sect Leader. This person was nad Xing Wen, and with this, the complaints from Hua’s faction gradually subsided.

Miluo did not elaborate further on the rest of Guangcheng Palace’s pacifying asures. Ning Xiaoxian, after listening, asked Changtian: "What do you think?"

"Is that even a question?" Tu Jin had also co today, and the two were playing chess in the God Demon Prison, locked in a difficult battle. Changtian made his move and said leisurely, "Yin Jiu You is making a move. If you do not hurry up and give Nangong Zhen’s token to Bai Qing, Guangcheng Palace will sooner or later beco his possession."

"Whom do you think he has controlled?"

"Hard to say. It could be Qiu Chuyuan, or the newly appointed Vice Sect Leader Xing Wen," he pondered, "or perhaps, even the new Sect Leader Feng Wenbo."

She frowned: "His strength has not yet fully recovered, at best he’s only sowhat more formidable than Tu Jin, could he actually control Feng Wenbo?"

As soon as this was said, both Tu Jin and Changtian glanced at her together and shook their heads. Changtian smiled and said, "Silly girl, does controlling soone always require using a soul avatar? The news from Miluo is already filtered by himself, it seems he has had his own plans for a while."

Now that Feng Wenbo has beco the Sect Leader of one of the most prominent sects in the world, what could Yin Jiu You possibly offer to sway him? Could it be he has caught him in a trap? She admitted that she had only a bit of cleverness, occasionally gaining a small advantage, but when it ca to strange events within this grand sche, she always felt her brain capacity was insufficient.

The second piece of bad news from Miluo was about the plague. Miluo had not hoarded the antidote but distributed it rapidly to all the major Immortal Sects through various channels, so the speed of healing and rescuing was extrely fast. From this, you could see that this guy also knew how to prioritize things. Even so, by the ti the antidote was distributed, the first and second batches of people infected with the plague had already died, and the third batch of the plague was spreading like wildfire. It was like trying to eliminate an endless wildfire, which would regrow with the spring breeze. The Immortal Sects exerted the strength of nine oxen and two tigers to barely extinguish it. By then, over a million people had died.

Before everyone could catch their breath, five days ago, the plague began to spread again in the Southern Continent, starting from the west and extending to the central and northern parts.

This news was like throwing a Fla Burst Talisman on the spot. Ning Xiaoxian jumped up in surprise: "How is this possible!"

Changtian and Tu Jin also stopped their hands, looked up, and exchanged glances. The Plague Demon had died at the hands of Ning Xiaoxian, this was beyond doubt, and Changtian was confident he could not have been mistaken. But since it had already dissipated, who was spreading the plague across the continent now? Plague Seeds are not cheap cabbages wholesale on the streets, not just anybody could have them.
