It was rare for Chiyang School's square to gather so many people except for the Great Sect Competition that was held once every ten years. This time, the Head Elder of the Pill Hall, the Discipline Hall, and the Jin Dan cultivators who were usually in seclusion had all come. Yi Tian looked around and saw that there were more than ten Jin Dan cultivators and dozens of Foundation Establishment cultivators.
Everyone stood in a clear line. Sect Master Yang Yanzi's group had more than 20 people, Vice Sect Master Li Yanzi's group had more than 30 people, and there were even more people standing on the side, not helping either side.
Next to Yang Yanzi were Yan Jungang, Ye Qingchen, and a group of Spirit Children. Bai Qingsong, who was standing in the crowd, casually walked to Yang Yanzi's side and said, "Don't listen to people's words. Wait for the Ancestor to come out of seclusion and clarify everything." However, very few people listened to him. Most of them chose to remain silent and remain neutral.
On Li Yanzi's side, there were a few of his allies, Jin Sheng, Pan Qiang, and Pei Ming, who had walked over at some point. A large group of people surrounded Li Yanzi's side.
Huang Ziang and Wu Xing, who were standing behind Yi Tian, saw that the situation wasn't right and hurriedly wanted to leave. They were about to walk into the neutral crowd. However, they saw Yi Tian looking at the people at the entrance with a sneer. It was as if his feet were rooted to the ground and didn't move. The two of them were sweating, but they didn't dare to go against Yi Tian's wishes and could only stand still.
Li Yanzi looked at the situation and said, "Chiyang School's disciples, listen up. Now is the time for this Sect Leader to be appointed. I'll give everyone a chance. As long as you recognize my legitimacy, stand behind me." As soon as he said this, he saw another group of disciples choose to stand on the side. Most of them just stood there and watched.
Yang Yanzi also said, "I just want to know the truth of the matter. If the Ancestor's orders are true, then I will definitely abdicate. Don't you all have the patience to wait for a moment?" With that, the cultivators that originally chose Lie Yanzi stopped and returned to the middle of the crowd.
One after another, the people behind him chose their sides, and the chaotic scene suddenly became quiet.
Yang Yanzi looked at the people standing behind him. Indeed, there weren't many people standing behind him, but he still felt comforted. At least there were twenty or so people who were his staunch supporters. When he turned his head to look at the square, he was stunned.
The crowd in front of him was divided into four groups. Other than the two opposing factions and the neutral faction, there were three people who stood still. The leader was Yi Tian, the one who carried out this sneak attack. The two people standing behind him were sweating profusely. Their legs were trembling, but they didn't move half a step.
Seeing this, Li Yanzi frowned. What was this Foundation Establishment cultivator trying to do? Was he scared out of his wits? Pei Ming had already come up and explained to Li Yanzi. Li Yanzi frowned and said, "Junior Brother Ning, how will you choose your direct disciple?"
As the first seat of the Tool Hall, Ning Qing Yuan was standing in the neutral zone. His face was filled with worry. Seeing that Li Yan Zi had no choice but to answer, he could only step forward and shout, "Yi Tian, why are you still not here yet?"
Everyone watched as Yi Tian threw his head back and laughed, then he looked at Li Yan Zi and ridiculed, "If what you have is the Ancestor's handwritten order, then it might not be too fake." After he finished speaking, he took out a jade slip and started writing on it with his index finger.
In less than ten breaths of time, Yi Tian threw the newly copied jade slip to Yang Yanzi and said, "Sect Master, see if this order is real. It should be even more real than the one in the Vice Sect Master's hand." After he finished speaking, he stood there and didn't say anything.
After receiving the jade slip, Yang Yanzi's eyes widened. At first, he didn't believe Yi Tian's words, but after he opened the jade slip, he looked at the sky and laughed. "Martial Nephew is good. This order is even more real than the one in Li Yanzi's hand. If you don't believe me, you can come and take a look." After he finished speaking, he opened the jade slip and let everyone use their divine sense to check the contents of the jade slip.
This time, even Ning Qingyuan, Deng Qingxiang, and the other Jin Dan cultivators didn't believe it. In an instant, dozens of divine senses swept through the jade slip. They saw that it said, "Ancestor Chi Yang's order, appointing Yang Yanzi as the fourth generation Sect Master of Chiyang School. The original Sect Master, Li Yanzi, will abdicate and become an elder to cultivate in the inner court." At the end, it was Ancestor Chi Yang's truefire seal. This jade slip was even more real than the one in Li Yanzi's hand. At the very least, there were more words and seals. That truefire seal was definitely left behind by the Chiyang School's Chi Yang Truefire.
Now that Yi Tian had messed things up, many of the neutral cultivators couldn't help but walk over to Yang Yanzi's side. At the very least, Ning Qingyuan and Deng Qingxiang immediately ran over with a large group of disciples behind them.
Yang Yanzi was pleasantly surprised by the reversal of the situation. He didn't expect Yi Tian to have such a trick. But how did he do it? Yang Yanzi thought about it and realized that he might not be able to copy Master Chi Yang's seal perfectly. However, this Yi Tian was able to pass off the fake as the real thing. At the crucial moment, he was able to see through everyone's hearts.
The two people standing behind Yi Tian revealed happy expressions. It turned out that their boss had already seen through the flaw. This move was truly amazing. Then they saw Yi Tian wave his hand and the two of them followed Yi Tian into Yang Yanzi's group.
Seeing that the favorable situation had turned into nothing, Li Yanzi revealed a ferocious expression and said, "You are disobeying orders. Men, take him down." However, the people behind him didn't dare to step forward. Although they still had the advantage in numbers, the other party was from the pro-war faction. Their strength was clearly higher than theirs.
After Yi Tian stood still, he quietly sent a voice transmission to Yan Jungang and said, "The White Bone Gate's mole is on the other side. Jin Sheng, Pan Qiang, Pei Ming, and Vice Sect Master Li Yanzi, at least one of them is Ye Xiao. Let's see what you do next. I'm on the same boat as you."
Besides Yan Jungang, the other Jin Dan cultivators also heard this. After three breaths of time, they all looked at Yan Jungang and Yi Tian with surprise.
At this time, Yan Jungang could no longer remain silent. He directly sent a voice transmission to Yi Tian and Qu Yifeng about how they had worked together to eradicate the sect's mole. He also took out a few letters from his storage bag and gave them to Yang Yanzi for him to read.
After reading the letters, Yang Yanzi looked at Yi Tian with admiration and then said, "Ancestor Chi Yang hasn't appeared for so long. There must be a problem. Jungang, go to the sect's forbidden area with Yi Tian and Yi Feng. Find a way to welcome the ancestor. I'll think of a way to stall Li Yanzi. "After he finished speaking, he handed a jade token to Yan Jungang.
Li Yanzi nodded and gave a signal to Yi Tian and Qu Yifeng. The two nodded. Suddenly, Yang Yanzi and the other two cultivators rushed in from the side door and rushed into the depths of the sect's blessed land.
Lieyan Zi shouted, "Stop them!" He pointed at the three cultivators beside him, and they hastily followed him.
When Yang Yanzi saw that it really was Jin Sheng, Pan Qiang, and Pei Ming, he calmed down. It seemed that the other party was desperate. He couldn't be careless about this matter. He quickly called out to everyone, "Let's block him and buy them some time."
After he finished speaking, he shouted, "Disciples below Foundation Establishment, quickly take refuge in the outer sect hall. Jin Dan disciples, choose your side. Don't be fooled. It will be too late to regret it."
On the other hand, Li Yanzi smiled. Before anyone knew what was going on, Xu Haoxian suddenly flew out and threw a Heart Drilling Nail at Yang Yanzi. Then he rushed over to Li Yanzi's side.
Under the sudden attack, Yang Yanzi was directly hit. Fortunately, his cultivation was profound. Although the Heart Drilling Nail broke through his defensive barrier, it didn't pierce his vitals. However, what Yang Yanzi couldn't accept the most was being plotted against by a disciple he regarded as his own.
After pulling out the Heart Drilling Nail, Yang Yanzi finally understood why his Junior Apprentice Brother would appear at the right time to usurp his position. All of this was because Xu Haoxian had tipped him off. Thinking about it, he felt a burst of heartache. He regarded Xu Haoxian as his own son, but in the end, this was how Xu Haoxian repaid him. Yang Yanzi angrily said, "Li Yanzi usurped the throne, Xu Haoxian betrayed his master, and you two colluded with each other. Aren't you afraid that once the truth is revealed, you won't have a place to stand?"
"Senior Apprentice Brother doesn't need to worry about this. Let's see if you can survive today." After Lie Yanzi finished speaking, he waved his hand and the people standing behind him rushed forward. The magic spells in their hands were directed at the crowd below. The curtains had been raised on the biggest internal strife in the history of the Scarlet Sun Sect. Once everyone had chosen a side, there was no turning back.
In the inner sect blessed land of Chiyang School, three cultivators were rapidly flying. Yi Tian had never been to the forbidden area of the inner sect before, so he could only follow behind Yan Jungang. The two of them were flying very fast, but the distance between them and Qu Yifeng was slowly increasing.
Suddenly, Yi Tian's divine sense responded. There were three cultivators chasing behind them. They were about 30 miles away, and their cultivation was basically at the late stage of Foundation Establishment. After weighing the pros and cons, Yi Tian sent a voice transmission to Yan Jungang. "You go first. Just tell me the location of the forbidden area. I'll take Little Tunzi to intercept the pursuers."
Yan Jungang's divine sense had just found out the situation behind them. He looked at Yi Tian in surprise, then he threw a jade slip over without hesitation and said, "Make it quick. I'll wait for you in the forbidden area."
After putting away the jade slip, Yi Tian waved at him, indicating that he should go first. Then he flew back to Qu Yifeng's side and prepared to face the enemy.
Qu Yifeng had finally found an opportunity to talk to Yi Tian. When they were in the main hall just now, Yi Tian had not expressed his opinion for a long time, which had really made him anxious. He had thought that Yi Tian had chosen not to help either side. It was not until Yi Tian took out a jade slip and made a copy of the handwritten order that he realized Yi Tian's determination. Now that Yi Tian had stopped and waited for him, he knew that Yi Tian had something to tell him. He smiled and said, "Senior Brother Yi is really good. The copy of the handwritten order is flawless. Even the seal at the bottom is exactly the same."
"Is it really a copy?" Yi Tian found it funny. The handwritten order looked real, but it was actually engraved with words and seals with Red Yang True Fire. If he had not absorbed a small ball of Yun Zhongzheng's Natal True Fire, he was afraid that the handwritten order would really be a copy.
However, there was indeed a problem with the one in Li Yanzi's hand. Even Yi Tian could find the flaws after scanning it with his Divine Sense.
This thing should be a copy made by Li Yanzi. The Red Yang True Fire engraved on it was slightly dark red, which was definitely not the cultivation of a Yuanying cultivator. It was more like the work of a Jin Dan cultivator.
After a pause, Yi Tian stopped smiling and said, "Let's stop chatting. There are three late Foundation Establishment cultivators behind. They should be the three heroes of Chiyang School: Jin Sheng, Pan Qiang and Pei Ming. I'll give you a task. Delay Jin Sheng. I'll try to help you as soon as possible."
Then, without waiting for Qu Yifeng's response, Yi Tian directly took out three flywheels, a formation disk and a rune of the Thousand Nail Ruler. He placed them in his hand and activated them. He calculated that ten breaths of time was enough to set up a trap. When the time came, he would teach the three of them a good lesson and let them understand the situation.
Seeing that Yi Tian had already started preparing, Qu Yifeng did not say anything else. He took out a spirit sword and directly used the Red Yang Fire Sword to fight the enemy.
