Other than Zhan Ruxue and Yao Chen, who had complicated expressions on their faces, everyone else was extremely respectful and worshipful. They had all seen Xiao Yang's valiance during the battle, and they had all taken Xiao Yang as their idol.
Now that they could see Xiao Yang with their own eyes, they were all very excited.
Xiao Yang looked at their expressions and knew that their friendly relationship could no longer be restored. After all, the difference in status and cultivation was too great, and his old role as Bai Xiaochun was dead.
He couldn't help but look at Zhan Ruxue and Yao Chen.
Yao Chen lowered his head, not daring to look at Xiao Yang. He was one of the two people who knew the truth, but Xiao Yang now held great authority and status. He didn't dare say anything and only hoped that Xiao Yang wouldn't kill him to silence him.
Besides, when Xiao Yang was playing Bai Xiaochun, Yao Chen didn't have a good relationship with him. At the very least, it couldn't compare to Zhan Ruxue's relationship with Bai Xiaochun.
Right now, Yao Chen only hoped that Xiao Yang would treat him like a fart and let him go. As for what happened in the past, he could just let it blow away with the wind. The Xiao Yang before them was no longer someone they could associate with.
Only Zhan Ruxue held his head high and looked calmly at Xiao Yang. His eyes were filled with complicated emotions — sometimes happy, sometimes dejected, sometimes longing, sometimes melancholy.
Now that the two of them had developed to this point, there was no going back to their old friendship.
They all understood this very well.
Xiao Yang waved a hand and had them rise.
Then he called Lin Xiaozhi over.
Lin Xiaozhi had been bullied back in the Poison Sect, so Xiao Yang helped him to live a stable life of cultivation. He'd long considered himself Xiao Yang's little brother.
As a matter of fact, Lin Xiaozhi had been promoted from an outer sect disciple to a core disciple and was assigned to manage the Poison Sect's branch. His position was average, neither too high nor too low. Compared to his previous life at the bottom, he was very satisfied with his current life. He was very grateful to his boss, Xiao Yang.
"Boss."
Lin Xiaozhi walked in front of Xiao Yang and hurriedly bowed to Xiao Yang with an excited expression.
Although Xiao Yang was his boss, he couldn't meet him whenever he wanted to. Now that Xiao Yang was one of the Poison Sect's upper echelons, his prestige and status were among the best.
"En, it's a pity to leave these people here to plant medicinal herbs. Arrange a cave residence for them and provide them with cultivation resources so that they can cultivate in peace. When their cultivation improves, there will be other arrangements for them. You can handle it."
Xiao Yang instructed Lin Xiaozhi.
Lin Xiaozhi was naturally able to handle such a small matter. He hurriedly patted his chest and promised, "Boss, don't worry. I'll definitely let them cultivate in peace."
Xiao Yang nodded and waved him away.
After watching Lin Xiaozhi leave, Xiao Yang glanced at Zhan Ruxue, Yao Chen, and the others. He wanted to say something, but hesitated. Sighing, he turned and left.
"Bai Xiaochun, stop right there!"
Seeing that Xiao Yang had left just like that, a loud roar exploded out.
It was Zhan Ruxue.
"Zhan Ruxue, do you want to die?!"
Yao Chen hurriedly covered Zhan Ruxue's mouth, afraid that he'd say something he shouldn't.
Only the two of them knew the truth. Once they exposed Xiao Yang's dark history, it was hard to say whether Xiao Yang wouldn't kill them to silence them. After all, Xiao Yang had used them and betrayed them. Although Xiao Yang had perfectly acted out Xiao Yang's death, many of the original Sky Sect disciples would probably explode if they found out that he was Bai Xiaochun.
Xiao Yang stopped in his tracks and turned back to look at Zhan Ruxue with a grin.
He didn't blame them, nor did he give them any special treatment. With a chuckle, he gave them some instructions and left.
"This world is very big. We're just a small corner of it. Cultivate well and we'll fight side by side in the future."
Xiao Yang didn't admit his identity, but he didn't deny it either.
Whether or not they believed that Xiao Yang was Bai Xiaochun was up to them. If they believed it, then it was true. If they didn't, then it wasn't true.
On the other hand, Xiao Yang's words moved Zhan Ruxue, Yao Chen, and the others. At the very least, they could see that Xiao Yang hadn't forgotten them, nor had he given up on them. They still had a chance to fight together in the future.
Thinking of this, Zhan Ruxue and Yao Chen's eyes moistened.
They hadn't gone far from fighting side by side. Xiao Yang's help had made them reluctant to part with him. They also wanted to do something for Xiao Yang.
"Don't worry, we definitely won't let you down."
Zhan Ruxue and Yao Chen thought silently.
"Senior Brother Zhan, did we hear wrong? Senior Brother Xiao Yang is Bai Xiaochun?"
Supervisor Zhang, Baldy Fang, and the others widened their eyes and asked curiously. Their hearts were itching unbearably, especially the female disciples who'd fought alongside Xiao Yang. They were extremely shocked.
They'd always thought that Bai Xiaochun had fallen. They didn't expect such a reversal.
Of course, this was something that only the insiders knew. It wasn't good to expose it.
Zhan Ruxue slowly said, "Cultivate well. You'll know the answer in the future."
Thus, they began a long period of cultivation.
Xiao Yang walked slowly, with Gu Qianqian and Lan Jiaoye following behind him. As long as Xiao Yang was willing to come out and play with them, they didn't mind following him wherever he went.
Halfway up Herb Mountain, he saw Qian Jizi. Qian Jizi was originally the eldest disciple of the Poison Pavilion. Now that the Heaven Sect had been divided into Poison Sect branches, it was only natural for him to be here.
"Greetings, Senior Brother Xiao Yang."
When Qian Jizi saw Xiao Yang, he hurriedly cupped his fists and bowed to Xiao Yang.
He had a grudge with Xiao Yang, but it wasn't a personal grudge. Back then, Xiao Yang had helped the Medicine Pavilion Lord get rid of the insects and earned the Medicine Pavilion Lord's recognition. However, Qian Jizi had made things difficult for him. In the end, Qian Jizi had been slapped in the face.
Qian Jizi had always been indignant and wanted to take revenge on Xiao Yang to wash away the humiliation. However, when he saw how awesome Xiao Yang was in the Poison Sect's branch, he immediately extinguished any thoughts of causing trouble for Xiao Yang.
Xiao Yang had become Wu Zun's physical body, making him the third Wu Zun of the Poison Sect. This was a well-known fact. If a mere Martial Ancestor Realm master wanted to cause trouble for Wu Zun, he'd die in vain if he was beaten to death. Not to mention, Xiao Yang had made great contributions to the Poison Sect and earned the recognition of many Poison Sect disciples. Qian Jizi would probably be taken down before he could even make a move.
"Mm, Qian Jizi. I remember you. Do your best."
Xiao Yang naturally remembered Qian Jizi as well. However, he didn't want to continue arguing with him. Nodding, he left with the two women.
Qian Jizi respected him even more now that he saw how magnanimous and benevolent he was. If Qian Jizi had been the one in power, he definitely wouldn't have let Xiao Yang off so easily. Someone who could do what he couldn't was worthy of respect.
The Poison Sect had the Poison Medicine Pavilion. Naturally, the Heaven Sect had the Poison Pavilion as well.
When Xiao Yang arrived at Poison Mountain, he saw the Thousand Poisons King.
