Xiao Chen wasn't lying. The Sword Sect wasn't a sect with complicated rules. It could even be said that the Sword Sect had very few rules compared to other sects.
In the Sword Sect, from the Sect Master to the ordinary disciples, there weren't any restrictions on them. As long as they completed the tasks assigned by the sect, they could use the rest of their time as they wished.
This was also led by Xiao Chen. When Xiao Chen had just succeeded as the Sect Master of the Sword Sect, Xiao Chen had boldly and decisively removed many of the cumbersome rules left behind by the Sword Sect.
Therefore, in the Sword Sect, everyone was relatively free. Of course, the prerequisite was that you had to be loyal to the Sword Sect. That was the bottom line.
However, based on the current situation, it was precisely because of the preferential treatment that the Sword Sect gave to its disciples that the cohesion of the Sword Sect had reached an unprecedented level. If it wasn't for this, the Sword Sect wouldn't have been able to withstand the continuous attacks of the Heavenly Sect if they hadn't worked together.
When they heard Xiao Chen's words, the dozen or so rogue cultivators respectfully bowed and said, "Thank you, Sect Master."
These people had just joined the Sword Sect. Currently, it was impossible to determine whether they were sincere or were forced by the situation. However, Xiao Chen was confident that once these people truly joined the Sword Sect, they wouldn't regret their decision today.
The matter of the rogue cultivators was relatively easy to resolve. Following that, Xiao Chen assigned a few tasks to these people and allowed them to leave the City Lord's Mansion.
In the following period of time, these rogue cultivators would do their best to persuade the other rogue cultivators to join the Sword Sect. Those who weren't willing to join would naturally have to leave the Sword Manor.
As for the rogue cultivators, this was only temporary. The real headache for Xiao Chen was the people from the various sects.
It was much more difficult to persuade them to join the Sword Sect than to recruit rogue cultivators. After all, rogue cultivators had no ties and didn't have many concerns. However, it was different for sects. It could even be said that some of the Sect Masters were unwilling to join the Sword Sect because once they did so, wouldn't their sects be destroyed?
In order to make these sects choose, Xiao Chen had to add fuel to the fire. However, all of this would have to wait for three days.
He had already handed the choice to everyone. At the same time, the dozen or so Sect Masters who had left the City Lord's Mansion gathered together.... Among them, the Sect Master who had openly spoken against Xiao Chen was the strongest.....................
The Sect Master said coldly as he sat on the main seat and looked at the crowd below.
"The Swords Gate wants to annex us, isn't it obvious that they want to annihilate us? Everyone, although our sects can't be compared to the Swords Gate, we have also gone through many years of development to achieve what we have today. Are you all really willing to give up your sects just like that?"
The Sect Master was obviously trying to incite everyone's emotions. Hearing his words, everyone present chimed in one after another.
"Yes, that's right. Why should we give up all our years of hard work for nothing?"
"That's right. The Sword Sect has really gone too far this time."
Due to this person's incitement, everyone's emotions quickly became agitated. Thinking about it, as the leader of a sect, he had to hand over the sect that he had painstakingly established to someone else. No matter who it was, they would not feel good.
When the sect leader saw that the crowd had become agitated, a smile flashed across his eyes. Then, he opened his mouth and spoke in a timely manner.
"Everyone, now that things have come to this, we can only unite. Only then can we have a place in the Sword Mansion and in the Great Thousand World. Although the Sword Sect is strong, I don't believe that the Sword Sect can cover the sky with one hand in the Great Thousand World."
"I once had an acquaintance with an elder of the Shrines. We can contact the Shrines. As long as we unite closely, the Sword Sect has nothing to fear."
The Sect Master wanted to unite all the Sect Masters and Sect Masters present and secretly contact the Shrines to tangle with the Sword Sect.
After speaking, in front of everyone present, the Sect Master immediately contacted the Shrines elder that he spoke of through the Sound Transmission Talisman.
Seeing that the Sect Master was acquainted with the Shrines, and thinking that they would have the support of the Shrines, the crowd's courage grew, and they began to speak loudly.
Everyone wanted to unite to fight against the Sword Sect. Little did they know that after they finished their discussion, one of the Sect Masters present personally went to look for Xiao Chen that night.
In the backyard of the Governor's Mansion, Xiao Chen met the Sect Master. He was a middle-aged man with an ordinary appearance, and one could even say that he was a little wretched. His eyes were long and thin, and he gave off the impression that he was a monkey.
Among all the external forces that had entered the Sword Mansion this time, this person was obviously the most inconspicuous. At the same time, the strength of his sect was not considered strong. In the entire sect, he was the only one with a cultivation base at the Comprehension State. The strongest among the others was only at the Celestial Emperor State.
However, even he himself probably did not expect that because of his choice today, he would become one of the vice-sect masters of the Swords Gate in the future. He would become one of the few powerhouses in the entire Great Thousand World, and he would have great power and authority.
Of course, this was all in the future. At this moment, Xiao Chen calmly sipped his tea as he faced the person who had taken the initiative to look for him.
"It's already so late. Why are you looking for me so sneakily?"
In fact, Xiao Chen had no impression of this person at all. After all, this person was indeed too inconspicuous. Although this person was present during the day, Xiao Chen did not pay any attention to him at all.
In the face of Xiao Chen's question and being so close to Xiao Chen, the Sect Master could not help but feel a little nervous. After all, the person sitting in front of him was the Sect Master of the Sword Sect, an existence that was on par with the Ten Great Ling Tian Sects.
Suppressing the fear and nervousness in his heart, the sect leader lowered his head, not daring to look directly at Xiao Chen. His voice was a little soft, and there was even a trace of trembling in it.
"Sir, after I left the City Governor's Mansion today, I had a gathering with the other Sect Masters. During that time …"
The Sect Master recounted to Xiao Chen what the Sect Masters had done and said after leaving the City Governor's Mansion during the day.
Of course, he also said that the leader had contacted the elders of the Shrines in an attempt to use the Shrines to keep the Sword Sect in check. At the same time, these sects had banded together to fight against the Sword Sect and make the Sword Sect retreat in the face of difficulties so that they could occupy a place in the Sword Mansion.
