MWM Chapter 251

“Emei is the leader of the righteous path. If Emei falls, both the righteous path and the human world will be completely finished.

If the real master doesn’t mind, our Xiaozhushan Sect is willing to relocate the entire sect to Emei to help resist the invasion of the demonic path and contribute our strength to the righteous path!” 

Leo waved his hand with a sense of justice.

At this moment, his words were not merely to shout slogans or curry favor with Baimei Zhenren, but because he genuinely intended to move the entire Xiaozhushan Sect to Emei for a few years.

On the surface, it seemed like a very unwise move for a small sect like Xiaozhushan to rashly get involved in the battle between Blood Demon Palace and Emei, two top-tier sects. 

After all, it could easily lead to the annihilation of their entire sect.

Besides Leo, the strongest person in Xiaozhushan was Daoist Qingzhu, who was only at the Core Formation stage, and even then, he was the only one at that level.

However, Leo knew in his heart that the invasion of Emei by Youquan Blood Demon was just a pretense. He was no match for Baimei Zhenren and merely wanted to use Baimei Zhenren’s and Emei’s power to open the Blood Spring.

Once Youquan Blood Demon absorbed the power of the Blood Spring, not even a heavenly immortal would be able to defeat him.

So, if all went smoothly, there would be no danger for the next three months or even the following year and a half.

As for the tremendous increase in power after Youquan Blood Demon absorbs the Blood Spring, Leo had other plans to deal with it. Xiaozhushan would not be in any danger.

Moreover, Xiaozhushan staying at Emei for two years had too many obvious benefits. First, with the spiritual energy concentration of Mount Emei, the three elders stuck at the peak of the Foundation Establishment stage, with very little lifespan remaining, would definitely break through to the Core Formation stage.

The spiritual energy concentration at Emei was five times that of Xiaozhushan, so two years of cultivation at Emei would be equivalent to ten years at Xiaozhushan.

Furthermore, his junior brothers and sisters would naturally form friendships with Emei disciples, and that exposure would be of great benefit to their future cultivation.

Doing all this could also be considered as a way for him to repay the knowledge he had gained from Xiaozhushan’s archives.

Of course, if Baimei Zhenren refused, there was no loss either.

“Very well. Danchenzi, instruct the disciples to build a few more courtyards on Liuyun Peak to accommodate the friends from Xiaozhushan,” Baimei Zhenren said, nodding after hearing Leo’s proposal.

In truth, Baimei Zhenren didn’t care much about Xiaozhushan’s offer to help. In the face of the Blood Demon Palace, small sects were generally of little use; only larger sects like Wutai Mountain could provide meaningful assistance.

However, since the other party was so enthusiastic, it would have been impolite to refuse. Furthermore, Li Qingfeng’s ability to defeat two of Emei’s demonic cultivators showed that he had considerable strength and could indeed be of some help.

Besides, if it hadn’t been for Li Qingfeng, three months later, they might have been caught off guard.

Therefore, allowing Xiaozhushan to move in for a few years was also a form of repayment for Li Qingfeng’s contributions.

“Yes, Master!” 

Danchenzi nodded respectfully.

After everything was discussed, Leo followed Danchenzi out of the main hall and returned to Liuyun Peak.

At this time, all six people, except Shangguan Qian, had come out of seclusion and were waiting there. Seeing Leo and Danchenzi appear, they hurried forward to ask what had happened.

Since Baimei Zhenren hadn’t instructed him to keep things confidential, Leo roughly explained the situation.

The Seven Sons of Yunzhong were astonished when they heard that Leo had defeated Blood God Son and Yin Jiutian on his own.

“So, Qingfeng, you’re going back to the sect to bring your master, uncles, and junior brothers and sisters here?” Shangguan Qian asked, her expression betraying a hint of delight.

“Yes, Xiaozhushan will live and die alongside Emei!” 

Leo nodded, opening his mouth to release the Scarlet Spirit Fire Pearl.

Danchenzi looked at Leo with appreciation.

“Go early and return early. I’ve heard from Junior Sister Shangguan that you’re interested in my Flying Blade Wings. When you come back, I can teach you how to forge them.”

As the eldest senior brother of Emei and the future head of the sect, Danchenzi had a deep hatred for evil. Many demonic cultivators had died at his hands, and he had a profound sense of responsibility toward the sect.

Thus, he greatly admired Leo’s actions and words.

His treasure, the Flying Blade Wings, was not inherited like most other disciples’ flying swords from Emei’s Sword Mountain. Instead, he had created and forged it himself.

When the Seven Sons of Yunzhong mentioned that Leo was very fond of his Flying Blade Wings, Danchenzi hadn’t paid much attention. Many people admired his treasure, but he couldn’t just teach anyone how to forge it.

Even though Leo had saved the Seven Sons of Yunzhong, Baimei Zhenren had already granted him permanent residency at Emei.

But today, seeing Leo’s willingness to sacrifice for the greater good and for the righteous path, Danchenzi felt a little ashamed of his previous attitude.

His master often said that the righteous path was a family, and a cultivator like Leo, who would risk everything for the righteous cause, was certainly deserving of learning the Flying Blade Wings’ forging technique.

“This… Thank you so much, Senior Brother Danchenzi!”

Leo was stunned for a moment but then expressed his joy. 

This was a genuine surprise. He hadn’t expected Danchenzi to be willing to teach him how to forge the Flying Blade Wings, as there hadn’t been any sign of this happening before.

He had always been thinking about how to learn the technique and forge his own version of the wings.

This was truly an unexpected delight.

“When you return, come to Tianchi Peak and find me.” 

With that, Danchenzi flapped his wings and disappeared.

After calming his excitement, Leo greeted the Seven Sons of Yunzhong, then flew back to Xiaozhushan using the Scarlet Spirit Fire Pearl.

Upon his return, he explained the situation to the elders and detailed the benefits of relocating to Emei. Daoist Qingzhu thought about it for a moment and quickly agreed.

The logic was simple: if Youquan Blood Demon attacked Mount Emei and Emei lost, the righteous path would be finished, and Xiaozhushan’s destruction would just be a matter of time.

But if Emei won, Xiaozhushan would gain a valuable relationship, and the chances of the three elders breaking through to the Core Formation stage would greatly increase. Xiaozhushan could rise again.

So, there was really no other choice.

Smaller sects similar to theirs didn’t have the connection Leo had with Emei. They wouldn’t even get the opportunity to align with Emei if they wanted to. Emei wouldn’t look their way.

Thus, with minimal preparation, all ten members of Xiaozhushan flew to Emei.

Once everything was settled, Leo flew directly to Tianchi Peak, where Danchenzi began instructing him on how to forge the Flying Blade Wings.

Danchenzi kept his word, teaching Leo all the details of forging the Flying Blade Wings, including the materials, the fire needed for the process, the spells, and the various prohibitions and formations that had to be applied.

After learning everything, Leo realized that forging the Flying Blade Wings was indeed not a simple task.

To successfully forge them required a very high level of skill in crafting, and in this area, he was still far from qualified.

After all, he had never forged a magical treasure before. His only bit of experience came from Li Qingfeng’s memories.

Fortunately, Danchenzi promised to guide him step by step as long as he could find the appropriate materials.
