"But I didn't expect the people from the Eight Sword Sect and the Demon Sword Sect to chase after me. I repelled the Eight Sword Sect's people and even captured a few of them. At this time, the people from the Demon Sword Sect attacked me. I immediately had the temple send people to help me bring the captured Eight Sword Sect members back to the temple and interrogate them. As long as we can get some information, we would know what the people from the Eight Sword Sect and the Demon Sword Sect wanted to do. Then I returned to the Sea Exploring Sect and had them take precautions to avoid being attacked. But not long after I arrived at the Sea Exploring Sect, I knew that the temple was under attack. I immediately led people back to the temple, but it was already too late. The people who attacked the temple weren't just the people from the Eight Sword Sect and the Demon Sword Sect, there were also other Sword Cultivators. They were all wearing black clothes and the leaders of the Eight Sword Sect had comprehended the Killing Sword Dao. Abbot Wu Yu was heavily injured by their Killing Sword Dao. The same went for the other Great Elders. When they wanted to use the Killing Sword Dao to deal with me, Abbot Wu Yu used a secret technique to repel them. However, he also passed away."
After saying this, Zhao Hai stopped. He clenched his teeth and said, "In this battle, the higher-ups of the Iron Buddha Temple were all killed. Among the Core Disciples, I'm the only one who survived. If I don't take revenge, then I won't be a man. In the future, I will definitely destroy the Demon Sword Sect to take revenge."
Grandmaster Hui Neng looked at Zhao Hai and said, "Did the people from the Demon Sword Sect really comprehend the Killing Sword Dao?"
Zhao Hai replied, "There's no mistake. Abbot Wu Yu said that they used the Killing Sword Dao. Moreover, the people from the Eight Sword Sect that I sent back to the temple have already disappeared. It seems like they were rescued. They must be plotting something. Otherwise, they wouldn't suddenly attack the Iron Buddha Temple. Their losses this time weren't small."
Grandmaster Hui Neng nodded and said, "Alright, I understand. What are you going to do next? I mean, what arrangements do you have for the Iron Buddha Temple? "
Zhao Hai said solemnly, "I am a core disciple of the Iron Buddha Temple, and now I am the abbot of the Iron Buddha Temple. The Iron Buddha Temple's inheritance will not be broken. Sooner or later, the Iron Buddha Temple will regain its former glory."
Hui Neng knit his brows and said, "Jing Hai, your Iron Buddha Temple's current situation isn't very good. You've lost more than half of your experts. I'm afraid that you won't be able to defend the Iron Buddha Temple just by relying on the Sea Exploring Sect's strength. What plans do you have?"
Zhao Hai understood what Grandmaster Hui Neng meant. Grandmaster Hui Neng called him Jing Hai instead of Saber9. This meant that he was talking to Jing Hai, a core disciple of the Iron Buddha Temple. Moreover, what he said was very reasonable. Although the Iron Buddha Temple wasn't a top sect in the Sword Spirit Boundary, it was still a powerful sect. The territory it occupied wasn't small. But now, the Iron Buddha Temple had lost a lot of experts. Even with the support of the Sea Exploring Sect, they wouldn't be able to defend such a large territory. If he didn't handle this matter well, then the Iron Buddha Temple would face a calamity.
Although the Myriad Buddhas Temple could help the Iron Buddha Temple, they couldn't help for free. In the Sword Spirit Boundary, there was no such thing as helping for free. After all, the Myriad Buddhas Temple also needed to develop.
Zhao Hai replied, "We don't need the territory, but we need the Iron Buddha Temple's territory. Moreover, we need to keep some of the areas near the sect. If they still don't let us go, then we can only fight. There are people in the Iron Buddha Temple who are afraid of death." Zhao Hai nodded and said, "Alright, alright.
Hui Neng nodded and said, "Alright, it's good to hear you say that. If you can really give up a portion of your territory, then our Myriad Buddha Temple can come forward and mediate. Your Sect and most of your territory can still be preserved."
Zhao Hai cupped his fist towards Hui Neng and said, "Then I thank Grandmaster Hui Neng. Grandmaster, regarding the matter of the Eight Sword Sect and the Demon Sword Sect, I'll have to ask the Myriad Buddhas Temple to come forward and inform the other sects. If they don't believe us, then we can't do anything about it. In any case, the Iron Buddha Temple has already paid a huge price.
Hui Neng replied, "This matter still needs to be investigated. After all, this matter is of great importance. But rest assured, if this matter is verified, then I'll certainly inform you. I'll certainly take revenge for the Iron Buddha Temple."
Zhao Hai nodded, then he said, "Alright, the Iron Buddha Temple is in chaos right now. There are too many things to do, so I won't keep Grandmaster here. Grandmaster, please."
Grandmaster Hui Neng also stood up and said, "If there's anything you need, please don't hesitate to tell me. The Myriad Buddhas Temple and the Iron Buddha Temple have always been friends. If we can help, then we'll certainly help."
Zhao Hai cupped his fist towards Grandmaster Hui Neng and said, "Many thanks, Grandmaster Hui Neng." After Grandmaster Hui Neng bowed, he turned around and left. Zhao Hai sent Grandmaster Hui Neng to the transmission formation before he went back to work on the Iron Buddha Temple.
The news of the Iron Buddha Temple's incident and the fact that Zhao Hai was a member of the Iron Buddha Temple spread like wildfire throughout the Sword Spirit World. After hearing this news, the people in the Sword Spirit World were shocked. They didn't think that the Blood Fox Sword Nine who had stirred up a storm in the Sword Spirit World would actually be the Calm Sea Sect's Iron Buddha Temple. A person with two identities. Moreover, both of them weren't weak. Such a person had never appeared in the Sword Spirit World before.
Afterward, everyone knew that the Iron Buddha Temple had officially merged with the Sea Exploring Sect and became the Iron Buddha Temple Branch of the Sea Exploring Sect. However, everyone was still unwilling to accept this. But after a while, the people of the Myriad Buddhas Temple came forward to mediate the situation. Zhao Hai decided to give up more than half of the Iron Buddha Temple's forces. Only the Iron Buddha Temple's territory and the surrounding cities would be retained.
This news made everyone in the Sword Spirit World speechless. Everyone knew what Zhao Hai meant. He had taken the initiative to bow his head and admit defeat. If anyone dared to criticize him, then he would go all out.
Although the experts of the Iron Buddha Temple were all killed, the Sea Exploring Sect didn't suffer any harm. The name Blood Fox Sword wasn't given casually. He was a ruthless person. If he was forced into a corner, then who knows what he would do.
Most importantly, Zhao Hai was a member of the South Sea Alliance. Moreover, he had a great reputation in the alliance. Dealing with him was tantamount to going against the South Sea Alliance. The consequences would be unimaginable.
It was precisely because of this that this matter calmed down in the shortest time possible. This was because the major sects immediately noticed another matter, and that was the matter of the Eight Sword Sect.
At this time, Zhao Hai had already returned to the Sea Exploring Sect. At the same time, he sent a letter to the Profound Sky Sect and the 33 Islands of the South Sea, inviting them to come to the Sea Exploring Sect.
Daoist Priest Fierce Tiger and Jie Yiming received the letter and immediately arrived at the Sea Exploring Sect. Zhao Hai had already arrived at the transmission formation to greet them. Both sides quickly arrived at the main hall of the Sea Exploring Sect.
In the main hall of the Sea Exploring Sect, all the high-level elders of the Sea Exploring Sect were present. Among them, there were also several inner disciples of the Iron Buddha Temple. These inner disciples, regardless of which faction they belonged to, now had the highest cultivation in the Iron Buddha Temple. Therefore, they also became elders of the Sea Exploring Sect and were now in charge of the Iron Buddha Temple.
The representatives of the Profound Sky Sect and the 33 Islands of the South Sea weren't just limited to Daoist Priest Fierce Tiger and Jie Yiming. There were also representatives of other sects.
Zhao Hai invited Daoist Priest Fierce Tiger and Jie Yiming to sit down in the main hall. Then he looked at everyone in the hall and said, "The reason why I called everyone here today is to tell everyone about the recent events. I believe everyone has a lot of questions about me. Why did I, the Sea Exploring Sect's Sect Master, become a core disciple of the Iron Buddha Temple? I think it's not just the people of the Sea Exploring Sect who are curious. Friends of the Profound Sky Sect and the 33 Islands of the South Sea are also curious, right?"
Daoist Priest Fierce Tiger and Jie Yiming looked at each other. Just as Zhao Hai said, they were also very curious about Zhao Hai's identity. They didn't know how he did it.
Zhao Hai looked at Fierce Tiger and Jie Yiming, then he said, "Actually, it's very simple. I was originally a member of the Imperial Sword Sect. But after I left the sect, I lost the inheritance of the sect. I wanted to improve my strength, so I joined the Iron Buddha Temple and became their disciple. Later on, I had an opportunity to counterattack the Imperial Sword Sect and became its Sect Master. However, I didn't give up my identity as a disciple of the Iron Buddha Temple. This was because the Iron Buddha Temple had done me a great favor, so I couldn't give up on this identity. There are also people from the Iron Buddha Temple present here, they also know about my actions in the Iron Buddha Temple. I can honestly say that I haven't done anything wrong to the Iron Buddha Temple."
The inner disciples of the Iron Buddha Temple all stood up, including Na Zhen. They bowed towards Zhao Hai and said, "Amitabha, we can prove that Senior Brother Jing Hai didn't do anything wrong to the Iron Buddha Temple."
Zhao Hai waved his hand and asked them to sit down. Then he said, "I originally wanted to reveal my identity in the future and then leave the Iron Buddha Temple. But now, it seems that I won't have the chance. Abbot Wu Yu asked me to pass down the inheritance of the Iron Buddha Temple. As a disciple of the Iron Buddha Temple, I can't shirk my responsibility. I hope that the Profound Sky Sect and the thirty-three islands can understand."
Daoist Priest Fierce Tiger looked at Zhao Hai and said, "So, Sect Master Jian Jiu, you're really Jing Hai? Did you really cultivate the Iron Buddha Lotus Body? "
Zhao Hai smiled faintly and said, "Actually, I didn't want to talk about this matter in the Iron Buddha Temple. I wanted to use this opportunity to fake my death and leave the Iron Buddha Temple. As long as the inner disciples of the Iron Buddha Temple were here and I secretly supported them, then my identity wouldn't be known. Naturally, no one in the Iron Buddha Temple would know. But I don't know why Abbot Wu Yu called out my identity as soon as he saw me. To be honest, I was very surprised at that time. In the end, I had no choice but to take Jing Hai's appearance." As Zhao Hai spoke, he turned around and a dhuta appeared in the room.
This dhuta was tall and had black skin. His eyes were full of spirit, and he looked extraordinarily powerful. It was Jing Hai.
