After passing through the main hall, there was a secluded courtyard. There were a few rooms in the courtyard, and the environment was very quiet. However, along the way, there were traces of smashing everywhere. There were even some bloodstains in some places.
Chu Chen frowned when he saw this scene. It seemed like a chaotic battle had just taken place here.
When the two of them reached a small room, Lian Yun stopped and pointed at the room to Chu Chen. "You can rest in this room for the next two days."
Chu Chen looked at the room and couldn't help but laugh.
The windows of this room were all broken. It was obvious that someone had used a heavy object to smash them open.
However, compared to the other rooms, this room was considered the best. The environment inside was very clean and tidy.
"You should rest first. You must be very tired after running around for the past few days. I will send you some food. You can just stay here for two days."
For some reason, Lian Yun's face seemed to be a little flustered. It was as if she didn't want to spend more time with Chu Chen and was afraid that he would ask her something. It was as if she wanted to escape at all times.
After saying a few words in a hurry, she hurriedly walked out.
"Senior Sister, wait a moment."
Seeing Lian Yun's anxious and panicked appearance, Chu Chen decided to call out to her. "What happened here? Was it attacked?"
Hearing Chu Chen's question, Lian Yun was stunned. The forced smile on her face finally disappeared.
The rims of her eyes reddened as bean-sized tears rolled down her cheeks.
At first, she wasn't willing to speak. It was only when Chu Chen asked her several times if she was alright that she wiped away the tears on her face and sobbed softly.
"Two days ago, a group of people rushed into this main hall and smashed everything. They were very fierce and I couldn't stop them alone."
"Someone came to smash the main hall? Why? "Chu Chen frowned.
"They … they said that we, the Divine Cloud Sect, are leading the disciples astray, and they actually have the face to recruit new disciples here. They said that we are shameless …"
Little Senior Sister seemed to have been wronged for too long and had finally found someone to confide in. Lian Yun told Chu Chen everything that had happened during this period of time, allowing him to finally understand what had happened.
It turned out that this period of time just happened to be the time when the various great sects, clans, secret realms, and other forces of the Western Wilderness Region were recruiting disciples and absorbing new blood.
The Garrison Hall of this desolate city was originally equivalent to a recruitment point for the Divine Cloud Sect. It had always been calm and peaceful, no different from the other sects' Garrison Halls.
It was just that some unforeseen events had happened in the sect some time ago, which caused the reputation of the Divine Cloud Sect to be greatly damaged and even incurred the wrath of the public.
Those sects that had conflicts with the Divine Red Clouds Sect in the past would often join forces to send people here to cause trouble and prevent the Divine Red Clouds Sect from recruiting new disciples.
Some time ago, there were still some Elders and Senior Brothers of the sect protecting this place. However, after several conflicts, almost all of the Senior Brothers stationed here were injured and had to return to the sect to recuperate.
Therefore, after a discussion, the Divine Red Clouds Sect decided to simply close this Auxiliary Garrison Hall and wait for the storm to die down.
Until today, almost all of the people stationed here had left. Only Senior Sister Lian Yun was left here because she had to wait for Chu Chen and was still bitterly holding on here.
"Those people from the other sects actually swaggered into the Garrison Hall to cause trouble?"
Hearing Senior Sister Lian Yun's words, Chu Chen's first reaction was that it was ridiculous. It was really too ridiculous.
One had to know that the Divine Red Clouds Sect was not some second-rate or third-rate sect in the Western Wilderness Region. Back then, Biquan Xianzong's Old Ancestor had recommended Junior Sister Tong Meng to enter this sect to cultivate because he had taken a fancy to this ancient sect with an extremely long history.
Although it was not one of the most powerful forces, the Divine Red Clouds Sect was also not some random small forces that would dare to casually join forces to bully them.
For such a powerful sect with an extremely long history to establish a garrison hall in a place like this desolate city, it would definitely have a good relationship with everyone in the sect.
Not to mention other things, just the city lord of the city alone should have specially assigned guards to guard this place.
In addition, the Divine Red Clouds Sect itself should have a team of strong experts stationed here for a long time. After all, a garrison hall could also be considered as a facade.
Brazenly coming to the garrison hall to cause trouble was almost equivalent to openly slapping the Divine Red Clouds Sect's face!
This should be absolutely forbidden in any place. If it was not done properly, it could possibly lead to a war between the sects!
But now, not only was this place smashed beyond recognition, even the Senior Brothers who were stationed here were forced to return to the sect to recuperate.
And this Garrison Hall was actually going to be abandoned by the sect … This was really out of Chu Chen's expectations.
How weak must this sect be to be able to swallow such humiliation?
The Divine Cloud Sect … was actually such a weak and weak sect?
They did not even care about their own face being slapped?!
This matter was most likely related to the recent changes in the sect. Perhaps it was also related to Junior Sister, which was why the Divine Red Clouds Sect had called him over from so far away.
"Junior Sister, you just said that there were some changes in the sect. What exactly happened?"
After pondering for a while, Chu Chen slowly asked the question he was most concerned about.
If the Divine Red Clouds Sect was said to be a weak sect that anyone dared to bully, Chu Chen would never believe it no matter what.
One had to know that this sect was praised by the old ancestor of Biquan Xianzong endlessly. It was called a powerful ancient sect that could move unhindered in the Western Wilderness Region.
If such a sect did not have some shocking changes, it would definitely not be in such a miserable state.
"This, this …" Lian Yun stammered.
Lian Yun stammered a few times. At first, she wasn't willing to say anything. Later, under Chu Chen's persistent questioning, she sighed helplessly.
"A shocking change did happen in the sect. Even the Sect Master and a few Grand Elders were alarmed and were running all over the place. The direct result of this matter was that the Divine Red Clouds Sect had incurred the wrath of everyone, causing those opposing powers to kick them when they were down. That was why they were in such a state today.
"What exactly happened? The connections of such a large sect should not have been established in a day or two. Why did they have to be besieged on all sides? "
Chu Chen felt more and more uneasy, and his brows were tightly knitted together.
"Actually … actually, some changes happened. Simply put, because of some negligence, the sect did not protect its own disciples well, causing many great powers to criticize it …"
Lian Yun sighed faintly and shook her head helplessly.
"Did not protect its own disciples well?"
Wasn't Tong Meng a disciple of the Divine Red Clouds Sect?!
