After I Became a Divine Monarch, the Sect Wants Me to Marry In-Chapter 307 - 243: Sect Upheaval

Above the Cangmu Sect, several streaks of light appeared.

Leading them was a middle-aged man, standing tall above the Cangmu Sect.

They brought quite a few people with them, their Qi spreading around.

Suppressing all directions.

The overwhelming pressure caused panic among those below.

Many even unaware of what was happening.

Gu An was also down there, sensing that these people were well-prepared.

But it was unknown how the Sect would respond.

Would they hand over the tree or do something else?

The Cangmu Sect was naturally strong in this region.

But they couldn’t withstand these people who held renown.

To exorcise demons and protect the Righteous Path, they stood on a moral high ground, thus they could oppress the Cangmu Sect with the names of justice and morality.

At this time, Gu An saw three figures appear on the highest peak and soon after, the visitors were welcomed into the Main Peak Hall.

Although he didn’t know what they would discuss,

Gu An felt that the matter would definitely not be simple.

And he could only wait quietly.

Many people were waiting for the outcome.

The five Major Sects had arrived in a menacing manner, and they would certainly demand an answer.

And according to rumors, there were two important factors.

One was that tree, and the other one was he himself.

By allegation, he might have colluded with the external evil forces.

It seemed he would not be let off no matter how you looked at it.

"Leader, why don’t you go and lay low for a while?" Pang Wen and Shu Ci came to Gu An as he waited.

Gu An remembered the restriction order.

Shaking his head, he said, "There’s no need to worry too much."

The two exchanged glances, but in the end, nothing was said.

Gu An also wasn’t sure if he would get into trouble.

Fortunately, he had handed everything over early, and the issue had already been passed up the chain.

It was just uncertain whether the Sect would discard him after crossing the river.

After all, he didn’t play a substantial role in the Sect.

But, at the very least, he was on the rankings. Without necessity, one would think they wouldn’t kill the donkey after grinding the mill.

Of course, now that the five Major Sects had come, compared to such a significant trouble, he seemed helpless.

But what use would capturing him serve?

Their target was that tree.

Was he once again to be given up as an explanation?

This time it was truly unjust.

He handed over what he obtained, and he knew nothing of anything else.

If there truly was an issue, it was up to the superiors.

Rely on himself?

Cangmu Sect might not capture him, but the other five Major Sects... capturing him was just a pretext born from renown.

Perhaps no one truly cared about him.

Inside the hall,

Peak Master Situ Baichuan sat below, looking at the others and said, "What brings you fellow daoists to the Cangmu Sect?"

At this moment, a bald man looked up at the middle-aged man above and said:

"Qu Peak Master, Peak Master Situ, Peak Master Yan, now that the three of you Peak Masters are here, we might as well speak the truth.

One of your Disciples has brought back something from Linghua Valley.

This thing is an object of the Demon Path. Once activated, it will bring catastrophe and countless people will die because of it.

Moreover, the Linghua Sect captured a Demon under severe torture.

It indicated that there has been a secret deal with that Disciple of your sect.

This matter is of great importance, and we naturally do not wish for such evil to arise again, as we have had enough of the lessons from the Demon Sect’s past.

Now that such relevant objects have emerged, we naturally need to be vigilant.

We hope to take that Disciple to a suitable place for interrogation, to uncover the Demon behind the scenes.

And as for the Evil Object he attained, it naturally must also be sealed and taken with us.

To wait for a consultation with revered seniors to decide on the final disposition."

Upon hearing this, Qu Youdao looked at the others and said:

"Take away our Sect Disciple and the object he brought back.

How to interrogate him, how to deal with his belongings, are all decided by you?"

Qu Peak Master jokes," said a middle-aged man at this:

"We are Major Sects with a ten-thousand-year heritage, responsible for upholding the Righteous Path in the world.

We naturally won’t be biased in the slightest.

If the Disciple is innocent, we will certainly return him.

As for his belongings, indeed they are from the Demon Path.

We will only keep them sealed."

Peak Master Situ Baichuan, with lowered eyes, looked at the middle-aged man and said:

"Heavenly Yang Sect, how come you have such a brazen person?

You say how things will be handled, and they will just be handled in that way?

If you use it for yourselves, wouldn’t we be none the wiser?"

"If Peak Master Situ does not trust us, you can have someone watch over the process, and you can raise any issues," said a Heavenly Yang Sect powerhouse, looking at Situ Baichuan:

"But one thing fellow daoist should understand is that we exorcise demons and protect the Righteous Path.

We are absolutely uncompromising when it comes to the methods of the Demon Sect.

Your sect’s reputation is not prominent. If this matter is not handled well, I fear that bad rumors may spread.

Colluding with the Demon Sect is no trifling matter.

I just don’t know if fellow daoist Situ can bear the consequences."

"Do you mean that if our Cangmu Sect doesn’t hand over the person and object, we are in collusion with the Demon Path?" Yan Ruxue, youthful and smiling, said.

"Immortal misunderstood." Daoist Yu from the Linghua Sect explained, "We are simply pursuing an object of the Demon Path, we have just come to make things clear. If there are any true issues with the object, of course, it must be handed over to the Major Sect for handling."

Peak Master Situ Baichuan was certainly aware of that object; could it really be handed over?

Of course not.

As for Gu An, no one cared.

Such a minor figure was merely an entry point into the topic.

Cangmu Sect would not be concerned about Gu An’s fate either; they were most concerned about that object.

It was known that they had already received news about this object recently.

They had tested it.

It was real.

It could take their Sect to the next level.

For a moment, the atmosphere in the hall was tense and on edge.

The conversation went on for a long time, Qi spreading all around. fɾeewebnoveℓ.co๓

Yet there was no conclusion.

In the evening,

Baldie suddenly shouted angrily: "Does the Cangmu Sect intend to collude with the crooked paths of the Demon Path and be the enemy of the Righteous Path here?"

Hearing this, Peak Master Situ Baichuan laughed angrily, his Sword Intent spreading, "What are you? Do you really think I take you seriously? Be enemies? You’re not worthy!"
