No, we have to invite them back.

In the void, Ji Wuchang waved the Immortal Golden Body in front of Bai Wuxia.

“Old Bai, are you alright?!”

Bai Wuxia forced out a smile: “I’m fine!”

If his attitude towards Ji Wuchang before was one of guilt and awkwardness,

then now, it was completely envy and heartache!

Who would have thought that he would stab his brother, but his brother wasn't hurt, and instead, he himself was stabbed all over.

Yet, he could only force a smile; to whom could he complain?

Crucially, Ji Wuchang was still relentlessly adding insult to injury!

He brought up the old topic again: “Old Bai, I’ve shared the treasures those Lords bestowed upon me with you.”

“What did you get? Let me feast my eyes on it!”

Bai Wuxia: “…”

He felt as if he had taken ten thousand critical hits.

He took a deep breath: “Brother Ji, our sect has important matters to attend to, so we won’t chat with you any longer. Let’s gather again when we have time next.”

The implication of his words was to dismiss him.

However, Ji Wuchang seemed not to have understood.

“Old Bai, speaking of which, has your sect encountered some major event?”

“Why does the entire sect need to be mobilized?”

As soon as this question was asked, Bai Wuxia’s face darkened even more.

Could he say that his entire sect was fleeing for their lives?

Naturally, he could not!

“Alright, it’s getting late!”

“We should go.”

“I know you have questions in your heart; we can talk in detail next time we meet!”

As he spoke, he no longer gave Ji Wuchang a chance to speak.

With a wave of his hand, he signaled the Ten Thousand Swords Sect to continue on their journey.

Seeing this, Ji Wuchang was extremely puzzled.

This Old Bai, he felt a bit strange today!

Next time they met, he had to question him properly. He hadn't offended him, had he?

Ji Wuchang took note of this matter.

However, he quickly resumed his journey.

Speaking of which, the sect’s discovery of a secret realm this time would definitely require experts to guard it. If he hadn't met Old Bai, he wouldn’t have been willing to delay even a moment on the road.

Not long after Bai Wuxia and his group separated from Ji Wuchang, they stopped once they were out of his sight.

“Sect Master, which direction should we proceed in next?”

An elder asked.

At this moment, Bai Wuxia’s face was not looking good.

After a moment of serious thought, he replied: “We’re not going. We’re going back!”

“Sect Master, why is this?”

Everyone was greatly surprised and confused.

They had managed to escape, dragging their families along, and now the Sect Master was saying they weren’t going and wanted to go back.

Wasn't this a joke?

Bai Wuxia turned around and looked at everyone, explaining: “You should have heard my conversation with Ji Wuchang just now.”

“Those Twelve Demon Generals, how could they be bringers of misfortune? They are clearly Gods of Wealth!”

“Puppet treasures with the combat power of Three Yang Realm second or even third stage! They just give them away!”

“If our Ten Thousand Swords Sect also had such a treasure, our strength would definitely increase by a large margin!”

“Don’t you feel even a little tempted?”

How could everyone not be tempted?

In fact, when Ji Wuchang was showing off the Immortal Golden Body in his hand, they were very envious.

If their own Old Ancestor had not yet awakened, even if it was a brother sect, they couldn't help but want to snatch it.

“Sect Master, then what do you mean?”

An elder inquired.

Bai Wuxia stood in front of everyone and said each word distinctly: “The Gods of Wealth were personally brought by us to the Four Seasons Sect, so naturally, we must personally welcome them back.”

“To show our sincerity!”

“I have decided to personally act as a sedan bearer, using thirteen grand sedans, to invite the Gods of Wealth back.”

“I wonder, who is willing to go with me?”

As soon as these words were uttered, an elder immediately shouted: “Sect Master, count me in!”

“Those Lords previously enjoyed watching people perform splits!”

“It’s been so long since we last saw them; I really miss those Lords.”

“It’s a good opportunity to perform for them.”

“Sect Master, count me in as well!”

For a moment, all the high-ranking officials requested to go.

By now, they had also come to their senses.

It was understandable that experts like the Twelve Demon Generals acted in ways that defied common sense.

Being bullied by such people was not humiliation; it was an honor.

Perhaps if they were happy, they might casually bestow some things upon you, allowing you to save thousands of years of detours. Isn't that better than any other fortuitous encounter?

Indeed, when a person’s mind opens up, they possess infinite potential.

Bai Wuxia was also surprised by everyone’s enthusiasm!

He had originally thought he would have to waste a lot of words to do some ideological work for them.

But now, it seemed completely unnecessary!

He immediately selected dozens of high-ranking officials, and even a group of young and beautiful female disciples, to go together to welcome back the Twelve Demon Generals and the Scarecrow.

The remaining people were sent back to the original Ten Thousand Swords Sect territory.

Those who were chosen felt a burst of secret joy.

Those who were not chosen, however, felt quite disappointed.

The encounter with Ji Wuchang had caused a drastic change in their perceptions!

Finally, Bai Wuxia led a group of high-ranking sect members, found over a dozen grand sedans, and set off in a grand procession!

In the Demon City, there were no changes between day and night!

Dimness and crimson were the main tones of the Demon City.

Rolling demonic energy served as a splash of color!

Although the Demon City now gathered tens of thousands of people,

the streets were deserted, with only occasional groups of three to five pedestrians wandering through the city.

Tens of thousands of people sounded like a lot, but this city was too big!

So big that it was like a Small World.

Moreover, many people were looking for opportunities and trying to find the location of the True Demon Inheritance. As a result, the influx of tens of thousands of people, apart from bringing some popularity to the Demon City and making the city gate relatively lively, made it more and more deserted the further one went inside!

That being said, Bai Wuxia’s group’s formation still drew the attention and shock of many.

Just as they had traveled less than halfway, a group of people approached them!

They were dressed in black, holding long sabers, each with a cold and handsome face, and an extraordinary aura.

The leader was a burly man, appearing to be in his forties, with a long scar on his face.

Seeing Bai Wuxia and his group, he sneered: “Isn’t this the Sect Master of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect?”

“What’s up? You came to this Demon City not to seek opportunities, but to become a sedan bearer? What kind of trick are you playing?”

As soon as these words were spoken, a burst of laughter erupted from behind the black-clad men.

These people were from the Saber God Hall.

The Saber God Hall, like the Ten Thousand Swords Sect, was one of the top forces.

However, the relationship between the two sides was not friendly; in fact, it could be described as hostile!

And the leader was precisely the Saber God Hall’s Sect Master, Overlord Saber!

Although he didn't understand the actions of Bai Wuxia and others, given the relationship between the two sides, how could he not mock and ridicule them upon seeing them?

“Bai Wuxia, if you ask me, you’re really regressing. How much money can you earn as a sedan bearer?”

“Today, our Saber God Hall contended for a secret realm outside and snatched a Half-Emperor Grade Great Medicine!”

“Just tell me, how many tens of thousands of years would you need to carry sedans to earn back the value of this Half-Emperor Grade Great Medicine?”

Being so mocked and ridiculed, if it were Bai Wuxia’s old temperament, he would have likely drawn his sword long ago.

However, now, he merely said coldly: “Are you done talking? If you’re done, I need to go!”

As he spoke, he directly bypassed the Saber God Hall group and led his large contingent away.

This situation completely baffled Overlord Saber and his group!
