Unspeakable pain!
He only felt that the small bronze figure, less than three feet tall, in his hand seemed to weigh a thousand tons!
Such a divine item had unimaginable value.
Once known, even the Four Transcendent Powers would be moved by it.
At this moment, he was undoubtedly excited.
At the same time, he made up his mind that as long as he served these masters well, the Four Seasons Sect would likely soar!
In light of this, he prepared to have people collect more gold coins and, by the way, send in another batch of female disciples.
Although as a sect master, having female disciples from the sect accompany guests might sound bad when spoken of.
But compared to the gains, this was completely insignificant.
While he was thinking this, a disciple came to report.
"Sect Master, an elder in the sect discovered a secret realm in the Demon City and requests support!"
"Please instruct us, Sect Master!"
These words made Ji Wuchang’s mind sober.
Speaking of the Demon City, the True Demon Inheritance was undoubtedly the most valuable thing.
It attracted covetous gazes from all directions, and countless people were envious.
But besides the True Demon Inheritance, there were also many other treasures.
Could a secret realm in the Demon City be an ordinary secret realm?
Its value was immeasurable.
"I understand!"
"For this matter, I will personally lead people there!"
"Also, those masters, you must have people entertain them well, and never slack off even a bit!"
After giving some instructions, Ji Wuchang then gathered his people and set off towards the secret realm discovered by the sect!
… …
At the same time!
Ten Thousand Swords Sect!
Sect Master Bai Wuxia, after working busily for most of the day with the entire sect, finally cleared out the resources from the original location.
They then advanced deeper into the Demon City.
Thousands of figures set off, a mighty procession!
Bai Wuxia sighed towards the sky.
"I’m sorry, my brother Wuchang!"
An elder from the sect comforted him, saying, "Sect Master, there’s no need to blame yourself. I believe the Four Seasons Sect will understand!"
These words gave everyone a subtle feeling.
Understand?
Understand what?
Understand Ten Thousand Swords Sect’s betrayal?
"Forget it, it’s all in the past!"
"Life should look forward!"
"Dwelling on the past is not the character of us cultivators."
Bai Wuxia encouraged himself.
Then he quickly led everyone forward again.
However, he felt somewhat uneasy in his heart.
"I just don’t know what kind of torment brother Wuchang is enduring? He’s completely taking the blame for the Ten Thousand Swords Sect!"
Just as he was thinking this.
His steps suddenly halted, and his whole body inexplicably stiffened.
His eyeballs bulged out, and he was completely flustered.
"Sect Master, what’s wrong?"
An elder asked curiously.
"Is that… is that Ji Wuchang?"
Bai Wuxia pointed not far away and exclaimed in surprise.
Everyone looked in the direction he pointed.
In the sky, more than a dozen figures were rapidly approaching.
It was indeed Ji Wuchang, who was heading to the secret realm.
The moment Bai Wuxia discovered Ji Wuchang and his group, Ji Wuchang naturally also discovered Bai Wuxia and his group.
"Old Bai!"
With a loud shout, in just a moment, Ji Wuchang and the people behind him had already arrived in front of everyone.
"Old… Old Ji!"
"Long time no see!"
Bai Wuxia originally wanted to hide behind the crowd, but his name had already been called out.
Hiding at this point would be too undignified and irresponsible.
He immediately forced a smile and said.
The other disciples of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect all averted their gazes, feeling somewhat ashamed.
Just when they thought that Ji Wuchang would accuse them in the next moment.
They heard him say enthusiastically, "Old Bai, what are brothers?"
"You are my dearest friend and brother!"
"I was still thinking of visiting to thank you another day, but I didn’t expect to meet you here."
"This is the destiny of us brothers!"
These words made all the disciples of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect, led by Bai Wuxia, lower their heads in shame.
There was nothing they could do; the other party was so furious that he was using sarcasm.
What could they do?
They were in the wrong first.
Naturally, they had to endure it!
Bai Wuxia hesitated, wanting to explain something.
"Old Ji, I…"
"Old Bai, don’t say anything. I’ve remembered this friendship."
"Although with our relationship, saying thank you is too formal."
"But I still want to say thank you."
"If you hadn’t recommended those masters to visit my Four Seasons Sect, my Four Seasons Sect would not have received this opportunity."
"However, you old fellow, when you let those seniors come, you should have at least notified me in advance so I could prepare."
"This almost caused a huge misunderstanding with those seniors."
At first, Bai Wuxia, including the disciples of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect, all thought that Ji Wuchang was speaking sarcastically.
That he was implying something about them.
But as they listened, they felt something was off.
Ji Wuchang was too enthusiastic.
So enthusiastic that he didn’t sound like he was being sarcastic at all.
And what opportunity?
They felt like they didn’t quite understand!
Even Bai Wuxia was a bit confused now.
He asked doubtfully, "Old Ji, explain clearly, what exactly is going on?"
Ji Wuchang laughed loudly, "Still pretending with me?"
"Those masters must have given you many benefits, right?"
"Do you know what they bestowed upon me?"
As he spoke, he looked around.
Seeing that no outsiders were paying attention, he leaned closer to Bai Wuxia and said boastfully.
"Look, it’s this thing!"
"The Immortal Golden Body can unleash the combat power of the Three Yang Realm’s second or third stage."
"Once activated, it can last for twelve hours."
"After activation, it only needs to be refilled with spirit stones to recharge."
"This thing is now the Four Seasons Sect’s most precious treasure. I wouldn’t tell just anyone about it."
"But who told us we’re brothers."
"Old Bai, this thing is a major trump card; now is not the time to expose it. Remember, you must keep it a secret for your brother!"
As he spoke, he patted Bai Wuxia’s shoulder with a serious expression.
Then he asked curiously, "By the way, you knew those masters before me. What treasures did you get from them?"
"Could you show them so your brother can also broaden his horizons?"
Bai Wuxia didn’t respond.
More precisely.
He was already numb at this point.
So, those masters were a disaster here, but when they went to the Four Seasons Sect, they were so generous.
According to Ji Wuchang’s introduction, this Immortal Golden Body could be used as an ancestral powerhouse.
Such a supreme treasure would likely make even the Four Transcendent Powers envious and moved.
However, such a supreme treasure was given away just like that.
Does that mean that if he hadn’t sent away the Twelve Demon Generals and the Scarecrow, this item could have entirely been a reward from that great figure to the Ten Thousand Swords Sect?
Thinking of this situation, Bai Wuxia felt such heartache that he couldn’t breathe.
He felt as if he had missed out on several hundred million.
Looking at Ji Wuchang, who was showing off his treasure in front of him now.
His heart ached even more!
An indescribable pain!
This… this should have been his treasure!
