Finally, Chu Rui couldn’t suppress his anger anymore, and said with an unpleasant expression, “Ladies and gentlemen, don’t tell me you came here to look for trouble in our sectmaster’s absence.”

Perhaps Chu Rui wouldn’t be so bothered if the Void Spirit Society and Five Elements Sect openly invited others to join their sects.

However, Nie Tian was a Son of the Stars!

Even other important members of the Ancient Fragmentary Star Palace, such as Wei Lai and Yan Zhan, grew indignant at this moment.

WHOOSH!

A figure suddenly appeared in the distant starry river, shining with dazzling starlight.

It was Luo Wanxiang’s dharma idol!

Luo Wanxiang, who had activated his dharma idol, was wreathed in rings of mysterious starlight that looked like the Milky Way, within which numerous fragmentary stars could be seen flickering.

However, both his flesh power and spiritual power fluctuations seemed rather chaotic at this moment.

Upon seeing him, Guan Cong waved at him and let out a whiny cry. “Master!”

Luo Wanxiang flew over in the blink of an eye. Canceling his dharma idol, he presented himself in his true form.

Ji Yuanquan frowned and asked, “What did you run into on your way here, Brother Luo?” 

The chubby Chu Rui also took a deep look at him and asked, “What happened?”

“I was ambushed on my way here.” With these words, Luo Wanxiang ran his gaze over Ji Yuanquan, Hou Chulan, and the other experts from the Void Spirit Society and Five Elements Sect. “Why are you here?”

Before they said anything, Guan Cong rushed over to Luo Wanxiang’s side, and explained that both Ji Yuanquan and Hou Chulan had invited Nie Tian to join their sects on behalf of their sectmasters.

Not only did Ji Yuanquan not deny it, but he even said with a faint smile, “That’s our sectmaster’s will.”

Hou Chulan join the conversation. “All of our five sect heads gave me their word too. As long as Nie Tian agrees, we’ll have a place for him in the Five Elements Sect.”

Luo Wanxiang’s face twitched.

Calm and composed, Nie Tian stepped forward and bowed. “Greetings, Vice Sectmaster.” 

Then, without any hesitation, he said, “The grand elder suggested that I give the Heavenly Stellar Stream to Sikong Cuo, and I did. He told me that, considering the preciousness of the Heavenly Stellar Stream, you’re willing to compensate me with some of the precious treasures in your possession.

“So may I ask when you plan to honor your agreement with the grand elder and give me those treasures?”

Nie Tian’s eyes glittered with a determined, fearless light as he looked directly into Luo Wanxiang’s eyes.

Luo Wanxiang frowned and remained silent, as if he was pondering an answer.

The Saint domain experts from the Five Elements Sect and many other Qi warriors whispered to each other with surprised looks on their faces, as if this was the first time they had learned about this arrangement regarding the Heavenly Stellar Stream.

“So the grand elder communicated with Nie Tian and made another arrangement with the Heavenly Stellar Stream? That’s an Immortal grade divine tool! The treasures that can be used to trade for it must be extraordinary!”

“No wonder no one had a problem with the Heavenly Stellar Stream merging with Sikong Cuo.”

“But since Mo Heng still hasn’t returned...”

However, none of the important members of the Ancient Fragmentary Star Palace, including Wei Lai, Yan Zhan, Fang Yuan, and Wang Meijia, seemed surprised.

Apparently, they all knew about this arrangement.

Luo Wanxiang nodded and said honestly, “Grand Elder Mo and I did come to an agreement. However, there are still some details that we haven’t decided on.  So only after he returns will we be able to determine what I’m giving you.”

Since many members of the Ancient Fragmentary Star Palace knew about this deal between him and Mo Heng, he didn’t deny it.

The method he adopted was very simple: drag things out. As long as Mo Heng didn’t return, he wouldn’t give Nie Tian the treasures he was supposed to give him.

Nie Tian’s eyes grew cold.

“This can wait.” With these words, Luo Wanxiang snorted disdainfully and pointed at Master Blood Spirit, Li Langfeng, and the members of the Blood Sect. “What are they doing in your territory? Don’t you know that Master Blood Spirit is the current sectmaster of the Blood Spirit Sect?”

Here came the tough questions.

“I know that. So?” Nie Tian said in a calm voice.

“The Blood Spirit Sect is a crooked sect,” Luo Wanxiang said with a harsh, accusing tone. “The incantations they practice are brutal and inhumane. They...”

However, before he could finish, Nie Tian snorted an said, “I myself practiced the Blood Spirit Sect’s Blood Refining Incantation, but I didn’t see anything wrong with it. It’s an incantation that allows cultivators to refine spirit beast and outsider blood, and then use their flesh auras to strengthen themselves. What’s wrong with that?

“Humans’ flesh auras are far too weak. They didn’t harm anyone. Only because their cultivation method is different from ours, we have to kill each and every one of them?

“The incantations we practice allow us to channel the spiritual Qi of Heaven and Earth and energies of different attributes into ourselves, and condense them into spiritual power cores. Meanwhile, disciples of the Blood Spirit Sect channel spirit beast and outsider flesh auras into themselves and condense them into flesh power cores. We’re essentially using the same cultivation method. The only difference is our source of power.

“They’re not mutilating their own kind. What makes their cultivation method so unacceptable?”

Nie Tian’s words resonated through the silent crowd.

After he finished, many, except Luo Wanxiang’s subordinates, seemed absorbed in thought.

Among them, Master Blood Spirit, Li Jing, and the others from the Blood Sect were the most excited, Master Blood Spirit especially.

He looked unblinkingly at Nie Tian and made a deep bow, trembling as he did.

Even though he didn’t say a word, everyone could see in his eyes how deeply touched he was.

Nie Tian didn’t give up a single drop of his Blood Essence this time. However, with these words, he had won Master Blood Spirit’s heartfelt acknowledgment.

From now on, he would stand unswervingly by Nie Tian.

What Nie Tian had just said was what he had said countless times to others during the past centuries, and what the former sectmaster of the Blood Spirit Sect had said to those who had gathered in front of their sect, hoping to destroy them.

However, neither of their arguments had made a difference.

Ji Yuanquan from the Void Spirit Society took the initiative to break the silence and say, “Nie Tian isn’t wrong. The sectmaster of the Heaven Span Pavilion initiated the operation to wipe out the Blood Spirit Sect. In fact, we discussed it within our sect, and didn’t think the Blood Spirit Sect was as unacceptable as the other sects.”

Hou Chulan joined the conversation. “Our five sect heads also talked about this before I came here. They also think that it was unnecessary to eliminate the Blood Spirit Sect. What we did was a bit too extreme, and we could have adopted a different approach.”

Master Blood Spirit grew even more excited.

If he could win the Void Spirit Society and Five Elements Sect’s acknowledgment, it would mean that the Blood Sect would get to live on, and be treated fairly in the Blood Spirit Sect’s name in Nie Tian’s territory.

This had been his dream, for the Blood Spirit Sect to endure.

He knew that if it was just him, even if he entered the God domain someday, he still wouldn’t be able to rectify the Blood Spirit Sect’s name.

Who would have thought that the Void Spirit Society and the Five Elements Sect would approve of the Blood Spirit Sect’s existence so easily after Nie Tian said these words?

If the Ancient Fragmentary Star Palace could come to the same opinion on this matter, then the Blood Spirit Sect would finally be able to cross their name from the list of crooked sects.

If three of the four great sects came to an agreement, the Heaven Span Pavilion would have no reason to oppose their decision.

It would be a dream come true for Master Blood Spirit if the Blood Spirit Sect could have its name rectified.
