Other sects have already regarded themselves as the “alternative” version of Tang Sanzang, wanting to gain some fortune by rubbing shoulders with Liang Sheng and see if they could achieve a breakthrough too.
However, the truth couldn’t be clearer to him. What bothered him now even more was the person who leaked the information about Shen Wuque within the Dan Ding Sect.
Perhaps he had been too relaxed within the Dan Ding Sect for too long. Over several hundred years of relaxation, he had unknowingly let his guard down due to the friendly atmosphere within the sect.
“Master.”
Jin Quanxiu looked at his youngest disciple, his heart aching a little. For the sake of the sect, Liang Sheng had been wandering outside for a hundred years, and now he was still being watched with malicious intent.
“Cheng’er, recently there have been some problems with the sect. Why don’t you close yourself off like your second senior brother for a while and avoid any trouble?
After all, your eldest senior brother is the head of Green Cloud Peak. As long as he is there, no one can get close to your cave. All you need to do is focus on your cultivation and not think about anything else.”
However, Liang Sheng just shook his head with a bitter smile. Of course, Jin Quanxiu could think this way because he was his master.
But what about the other Peak Masters and Elders?
If other sects were to throw out prices similar to the Spirit Tool, like the Hua Tian Sect did before, would they be tempted again?
Therefore, retreating into closed-door cultivation isn’t the best solution. Moreover, Jin Quanxiu and the others genuinely care about him, so doing that would only add more pressure on them.
If they can’t find him, who will they target?
Without even having to think about it, Jin Quanxiu and the others would definitely bear the brunt of it.
Although Liang Sheng didn’t consider himself to be a good person, he still had his bottom line. He couldn’t let the people around him get into trouble because of his issues.
“Master, if I go into seclusion, what will happen to the Dan Ding Sect? If other sects really unite to pressure us, then even if I’m in seclusion, I’ll have to appear.”
Upon hearing this, Jin Quanxiu shook his head. What he said next surprised even Liang Sheng, “Cheng’er, you are underestimating our Dan Ding Sect. Even if other sects unite against us, our sect won’t be destroyed.
Do you remember what I told you when we returned from the Hua Tian Sect’s Sect Master Ceremony? Even without a Nascent Soul Master, our Dan Ding Sect will remain as stable as Mount Tai.
I’m telling you now; the same thing still applies. Our sect is just neutral, but it’s not that we can be pushed around.
Now we simply don’t want to attract trouble. We just want to live peacefully in the Desolate Regions. But that doesn’t mean we’ll let others push us around.”
At this point, Jin Quanxiu paused, seeming to make a decision. He suddenly stretched out his hand, and the entire Sect Master Hall was instantly cut off from the outside world.
Liang Sheng was slightly surprised, wondering what his master was going to say next that required such caution. Was he going to hear some sect secrets today?
“Above the Desolate Regions, there is an Immortal City, which you must know already. We rely on the Immortal City for survival, and the city will protect the Desolate Regions.
Just like nearly ten thousand years ago, when the Three Sects and Six Orders were on the verge of being destroyed by the beast tide, it was the Immortal City that intervened and allowed their inheritance to continue.
But do you know why the Immortal City appeared just in time? It’s because our Dan Ding Sect is the Immortal City’s eye in the Desolate Regions, and we are its chess piece stationed here.
However, the situation is extremely complicated, and our Dan Ding Sect will not ask the Immortal City for help unless the sect faces destruction.
But if we do reach a critical moment, we won’t be rigid. We’ll do what needs to be done.”
I don’t know if you remember our second Mountain-protecting Array? Back then, we had invited a Guest Elder from the Immortal City, but have you ever heard of any other sect inviting someone from the Immortal City to help?
This is what makes our Dan Ding Sect special, which separates us from the others. They can be destroyed, but as long as the Desolate Regions remain stable, everything else we can choose not to intervene.
However, when it comes to the destruction of the Desolate Regions or the crisis of extermination of our Dan Ding Sect, that’s when we’ll connect with the Immortal City.
But since we are the eyes of the Immortal City, we must always remain neutral and not be influenced by the changes in the world.
Let them fight if they want to. We only need to stay out of the fray and not get involved.”
If it weren’t for our relationship with the Immortal City, do you think there would be any sect in the Desolate Regions willing to remain completely neutral?
As long as there are people, there are desires. How can each successive generation of Dan Ding Sect’s Leaders maintain their initial resolve and unswerving neutrality?
It’s because only our sect can exist eternally in the Desolate Regions. If other sects dare to stir up trouble, then they’ll no longer have a reason to exist.
The Immortal City doesn’t allow the existence of anything that challenges it in the Desolate Regions. The inheritance of the other sects is insignificant in comparison to a single dog of the Immortal City.”
As for us, to put it harshly, we are nothing more than dogs of the Immortal City in the Desolate Regions. Although it might sound harsh, it is the truth.
So, Cheng’er, you must not bear any burden in your heart. The sky won’t fall, and as the Sect Leader of the Dan Ding Sect, can’t I protect my own disciple?”
At this moment, Liang Sheng was too shocked to say a single word. This revelation was as surprising as when he learned that the secular Dayan Royal Family and the Lifeless Sect were actually one and the same.
The truth was simply too astonishing. Liang Sheng couldn’t help but think to himself that it was no wonder how the Dan Ding Sect managed to maintain its calmness.
At this moment, all his previous doubts about the Dan Ding Sect were cleared up.. Where in this world can one find a sect truly without desires and completely neutral?
