My Master Disconnected Yet Again

“Tian Ji, my Gui Yi Sect has never mistreated you. Why must you gather all of these fiendish cultivators to attack my sect!” Yu Luan could not help but ask in a pained voice. He really wanted to know the reason.

“Hmph!” Tian Ji tutted, as if he did not think there was anything inappropriate about what he was doing. Instead, he responded hatefully, “Yu Luan, now that things have come to this state, are you still trying to act like you’re innocent in front of me? Do you think I really don’t know that you’ve all developed negative feelings toward me right from the beginning? You’ve been calculating your every move each day, just to get rid of me. Didn’t you invite all of these sword cultivators into the sect to force me out?” He shot Yi Qing a death glare.

“What are you talking about?!” Yu Luan looked at him with disbelief. He never thought about doing something like that. Why would Tian Ji think this way?

Tian Ji continued indignantly, “You forced me to do all of these things. Today, I’m here to seek justice. It’s about time Gui Yi Sect faced what it deserves.”

“You… You…” Yu Luan was so angered that he could not even speak. He did not think that Tian Ji would twist the facts to this point.

Lonemoon frowned. Indeed, people who had already gone off the path would find all sorts of reasons to support their own decisions. Even if the sect really was unhappy with Tian Ji like he said, nobody forced him to turn into a demon.

“Why should we continue with this nonsense?” Chef, who had been standing beside Lonemoon, immediately summoned his spirit sword upon noticing that it was time to cook. In a low voice, he shouted, “Let’s go!” He was hurrying to cook. Why were they waiting around and not doing anything?

Tian Ji frowned. There was a moment of trepidation. He did not take Yi Qing on, but turned to wave at the people behind him instead. “Go! Take Gui Yi Sect down!”

“Yes, Sect Master!”

The eyes of the fiendish cultivators behind him brightened as they responded in unison. They seemed to have been waiting for a long time for this moment. Immediately, they rushed forward and puled out all sorts of dharmic weapons. There were so many of them that they seemed to cover the sky. Some fiendish cultivators flew ahead of the group, as if eager to be the first to claim credit.

The evil Qi belonging to these fiendish cultivators filled the entire Gui Yi Sect, causing the spirit Qi in the surroundings to dissipate. There looked to be hundreds of thousands of them, and there were quite a number of Nascent Soul cultivtors as well. In this regard, they definitely did not lose to Gui Yi Sect.

Yu Luan’s chest tightened and he expereinced a moment of panic. He anxiously summoned his own dharmic weapon and rushed in front of the already gravely injured disciples. He shouted at the other disciples who were flying over, “Don’t let the fiendish cultivators enter the sect! Follow me in conjuring the array!” He turned to look at Lonemoon. Perhaps he suddenly recalled that Tian Yi had just ascended to immortality. Yu Luan said, “Brother Lonemoon, follow me in conjuring the array as well.”

“That’s alright.” Lonemoon tightened his grip around his fan and replied nonchalantly.

“Eh?” Yu Luan hesitated. He began to persuade Lonemoon again.

Suddenly, a huge burst of sord Qi appeared and overwhelmed them. It brought with it an irresistable power as it swept through the entire mountain. The impact caused even Yu Luan’s legs to turn to jelly. It was only because he instinctively stabilised himself that he was not forced down to the ground

The fiendish cultivators in front, however, were a completely different matter. At first, they were charging toward Gui Yi Sect with full force. But now, they were falling to the ground like dumplings, fried in the air. The overwhelming sword Qi caused them to be pinned to the ground, unable to move. The ones who rushed ahead of the group were especially badly injured. With their heads buried several inches beneath the ground, they screamed out in pain.

Tian Ji himself was finding it difficult to stand straight. He spat out a mouthful of blood and looked at Yi Qing in disbelief. “This… This is impossible!” They were all Soul Formation cultivators – why was Yi Qing’s sword Qi so much more terrifying? In fact, it was so bad… so bad that even Tian Ji couldn’t do anything about it

Yi Qing could not be bothered to respond to him. Instead, he flicked the sword in his hand and caused many more spirit swords to fill the sky. Soon, they dropped down toward the ground like rain. Each sword brought with it a strong sword wind, which itself acted like a thousand invisible swords. It was a full frontal attack on the fiendish cultivators.

The sound of pained cries filled the entire place. Those with slightly higher cultivation levels were doing slightly better. They managed to dodge some of the swords that came at them. The ones with lower cultivation levels, however, were not so lucky. They lay motionless on the ground, with at least one spirit sword through their bodies. The strong fiendish cultivator army was now reduced to half its size.

The fiendish cultivators aside, even Yu Luan had not fully taken in what just happened. He stared on, mouth agape, at the fiendish cultivators on the floor.

The various Mountain Masters arrived with more disciples in tow. They called out anxiously, “Sect Master, these fiendish cultivators are attacking…”

Before they could finish their sentence, they took in the terrifying scene in front of them.

Everyone: “…”

(⊙_⊙)

The battle against the fiendish cultivators had begun!

Oh!

The battle against the fiendish cultivators had ended…

This was the quickest battle they had ever witnessed.

Yi Qing was already walking toward Tian Ji. With each step he took, the surrounding sword Qi seemed to intensify. The number of dumplings on the ground was increasing steadily. Even the fiendish cultivators who were standing outside the entrance of the sect took the chance to run away. The people in demonic sects loved their own lives the most. Since they were the worst of mankind, they naturally were not too concerned with things like loyalty. What’s more, the demonic sects had only been combined for a short period of time. Not many of them were truly loyal to Tian Ji.

Lonemoon followed Yi Qing and walked toward Tian Ji. He lifted up his hand and caused a ball of sword Qi to shoot straight into his dantian. Immediately, the spirit Qi in his body dissipated. All his meridians were locked. Then, Lonemoon picked Tian Ji up and dragged him back to where the rest of the disciples were standing. He threw Tian Ji at Yu Luan’s feet and said, “It’s up to you how you want to deal with him!” So troublesome!

Yu Luan stared blankly at Lonemoon, then hurriedly grabbed Tian Ji. As he looked down at the Supremacy that their sect’s disciples were supposed to look up to, he felt conflicted. He recalled what Tian Ji had said and lowered his gaze.

Tian Ji, on the other hand, did not look at all regretful. As if having recalled something, he laughed out loud. “Hahaha, do you really think that Gui Yi Sect will be free from troubles just because of one Soul Formation sword cultivator?”

“What do you mean?” Yu Luan stiffened, hearing the underlying meaning in Tian Ji’s words.

“A sword culivator like him, whose source is uncertain, would only be accpted by a bunch of losers like you.” The more he spoke, the louder his laughs became. “Do you really believe he will always be loya to Gui Yi Sect?”

“Tian Ji!” Before Yu Luan could say anyything, the Nascent Soul elders beside him spoke up. “You betrayed the sect f your own accord. Stop thinking that everybody else will be just like you!”

“Hmph!” Tian Ji tutted. He turned to Yi Qing with hate in his eyes. “If you had not invited this wolf in our midst to suppress my growth, I would not have become like this. All of these is your own doing! He’s just like every last one of you!”

The group was getting angrier at the fact that he was not recognising his own wrongs. Yu Luan frowned and stepped forward. “Apart from coming to attack the sect, what else have you done?”

Tian Ji suddenly broke into an evil grin and gloated, “Since I dared to come and attack the sect, it shows that I have done all my preparations. Do you really think you have won? No! The battle has just begun.”

Lonemoon’s expression darkened and he immediately scanned the surroundings. “Shu Yi isn’t here!”

The rest of the group stiffened as well. They had not noticed before, but now they realised. Tian Ji had been so good to his disciple – it was impossible that she wouldn’t stay by his side. That was unless she was up to something else.

“You’ve finally realised?” Tian Ji grinned even wider. He was beginning to look a little crazed. “You won’t be able to run away! All of you will die!”

Lonemoon’s heart jumped. “Zuo Shuming!”

He exchanged eye contact with Yi Qing. In a flash, both of them flew back toward Nameless Mountain.
