Jiang Ming and the others quickly returned to the entrance of the General’s Tomb. Seeing that a fifth of the Flowerfruit Sect’s team was gone, Jiang Ming’s heart ached.

They had stormed into the place in such a grand manner, but in the end, they had lost so many people. Jiang Ming admitted that he had let everyone down.

“Master, it’s very normal to suffer losses. As the master of a faction, you can’t dwell on these things. Otherwise, you’ll be afraid of doing things in the future.”

Rao Wuqing walked over, and Wu Ming nodded in agreement.

“Ah.”

Jiang Ming sighed and did not know what to say. At this time, Old Wu’s voice was heard, “Master, both of my sons have died inside. As a father, I am naturally very sad, but I understand that only when the Flowerfruit Sect reaches its peak can I be proud of my sons’ sacrifices! After all, their sacrifices were inevitable. No force has no sacrifices on their way to the top. As long as we don’t let down those we lost and reach the top step by step, they will rest in peace!”

At this moment, everyone looked at Jiang Ming. Their eyes were determined. Jiang Ming’s heart moved. After thinking for a long time, he could not help but laugh bitterly.

“Alright, thank you, everyone.”

He quickly looked at everyone and then looked into the distance, clenching his fists tightly.

“In order to live up to the expectations of the deceased, I, Ning Caichen, must lead the Flowerfruit Sect to the top!”

The people from the Zhuyan Palace had already left. The person in charge of welcoming them was a trusted aide of Gongye Jiu.

“Master Ning, my master has instructed me to lead you back to the residence. I also hope that you can establish your own core territory near the Gongye Saint Sect.”

The core territory was the headquarters.

“Haven’t we already established our own base camp?” Rao Wuqing asked with a puzzled expression.”

“It may seem so, but in fact, you are just a motley crew. Only by using a pure piece of land as the foundation can you be qualified to take a step forward and establish the status of the Flowerfruit Sect in the Feather Kingdom!”

This time, Jiang Ming finally understood. This was all to secure the new grotto-heaven.

“It must be that the grotto-heaven is about to appear. Master Jiu made arrangements long ago. His goal is to get the Gongye Saint Sect to help us take down that grotto-heaven. Doing so can be considered a favor to the Gongye Saint Sect.”

Until now, Jiang Ming still did not understand why Gongye Jiu was so certain that his future was promising and that he was powerful enough to protect the Gongye Saint Sect.

One had to know that the Gongye Saint Sect was not weak. It was not inferior to any of the three great grotto-heavens here. In fact, it was even stronger than the two grotto-heavens other than the Immortal Feather Grotto-Heaven. Therefore, why did it need his protection?

“Never mind. Although I don’t know what the Gongye Saint Sect will encounter in the future, what I have to do now is do my best to fight for that emerging grotto-heaven. Otherwise, my outcome will be extremely tragic.”

Jiang Ming knew very well that many people had their eyes on him now. Whether it was Mo Lingche, Yu Tianhua, the royal family of the Feather Kingdom, Murong Beiyan, or even the master of the Divine Eye Sect, they were not good people.

“Speaking of the Divine Eye Sect, they haven’t done anything for a long time…”

At that moment, Gongye Jiu’s trusted aide spoke again, “Oh right, the Divine Eye Sect launched a fierce attack on one of your encampments. The experts that your sect arranged to be there were basically killed in battle and those who survived were also captured.”

What the hell?

Rao Wuqing’s face darkened. The mayor of Li City was from the Li family, a force that they had carefully nurtured and belonged to the Flowerfruit Sect.

The reason why the Li family was nurtured was to prevent the Flowerfruit Sect from being invaded by other forces. It was also to obtain the resources in that area. After all, the place where Li City was located had many spirit veins. It was an area that the Li family valued the most.

When Jiang Ming thought of this, he immediately widened his eyes and became furious.

This Divine Eye Sect was simply going too far!

“Master, I would like to join the battle. Only by destroying the entire Divine Eye Sect can I be happy again!” Rao Wuqing said in a muffled voice, his face filled with anger.

Although Wu Ming did not say anything yet, everyone could read his mind. He also wanted to slaughter the entire Divine Eye Sect. After all, he was the one who pulled the Li family’s people out. In the end, they suffered such a great calamity. Wu Ming felt that he had let down the Flowerfruit Sect.

It was also at this moment that Master Jiu’s trusted aide spoke again, “Don’t worry about the Li family’s safety for now. The current Li family might not be loyal to you.”

“Impossible. I’ve known Old Li for so many years. We fought together countless times as Nascent Soul Realm cultivators. How could he betray me so easily?”

Wu Ming’s face was filled with disbelief. Master Jiu’s trusted aide smiled indifferently and said, “You should go and take a look yourself to know the truth and see if I’m lying or not.”

As a result, Wu Ming seemed rather hesitant. After thinking for a while, he decisively walked in the other direction. He lowered his head, which stunned Jiang Ming.

Why did the previously high-spirited Wu Ming become like this now?

“Rao Wuqing, let’s go.”

Jiang Ming walked in front and asked, “By the way, where is Master Jiu?”

Master Jiu’s trusted aide was stunned and said in disbelief, “Master Ning, you must be joking with me. Didn’t you hear about Master Jiu’s death?”

“Master Jiu passed away? Are you joking with me again?”

Jiang Ming raised his eyebrows a few times. Surely, this guy was fooling him! Before they had parted ways, Master Jiu was as fit as a fiddle. How did Master Jiu pass away after the trip to the General’s Tomb?

Jiang Ming could not help but tremble. He had always felt that all of this was too strange. He was afraid that Master Jiu was not truly dead. This man was too mysterious and unpredictable. He seemed to be a mortal, but in fact, he had extraordinary tricks up his sleeve.

“Moreover, I used my blood to extend his life. It’s even more impossible for him to die at this critical moment. It’s very likely that this guy is plotting something!”

Jiang Ming’s mind raced. Although his guess was not completely accurate, he could guess that Gongye Jiu’s passing was fake news.

The group soon arrived at their destination, Li City.

At this moment, in Li City, someone was speaking.

“Emissary, may I ask when Master will arrive? We are still waiting to welcome Master and start the celebration banquet!”

A middle-aged man in a green traditional jacket laughed. His ingratiating manner was extremely annoying, and some of the Li family members even showed disdainful expressions.

The person sitting at the head of the table was an elder of the Divine Eye Sect. He was only at the Foundation Establishment Realm at a young age, but his status was higher than everyone else’s. Naturally, this made some of the proud Li family disciples even more unhappy.
