At this time, the Longevity Sect, which was once one of the titans of the Eastern Region, found itself without a leader and in a state of gradual decline.
Nonetheless, it possessed many resources and territories that could be said to surpass those of its heyday, naturally inciting the covetous gaze of other sects that could barely contain their desire.
At this moment, within the Evergreen Pavilion of the Evergreen Garden.
The Saintess Mingguang, Fang Xiu Yan, was having a hushed conversation with two accompanying Elders of the sect, within an area shielded by a formation.

“If it weren’t for the lingering power of the Longevity Sect and the news that the Fifth Ancestor of Longevity, Chen Dengming, had achieved Divine Transformation, plus the fact that the mighty Heavenly Dao Sect is still strongly linked to them, we wouldn’t need to be so cautious in probing.
We would have directly forced the Longevity Sect to sever ties with the Xianling Sacred Sect and cede numerous lands of faith…”
One of the Elders gently blew on the tea leaves in his cup, communicating via Divine Sense.
Hearing this, another Elder holding a whisk shook his head and said, “Now, the Longevity Sect is a clay bodhisattva crossing a river, hardly able to protect itself.
If it weren’t for our sect’s Venerable remembering old sentiments and Longevity Sect’s contributions to the Four Seas and Four Realms, even the many territories and resources presently held by Longevity Sect would be hard to maintain.
What to speak of the Xianling Sacred Sect?
Right now, our sect demands that Longevity Sect withdraw its protection of Xianling Sacred Sect and cede the lands of faith.
To not launch a direct attack and seize them already grants Longevity Sect dignity and a final show of face.”
The Elder who spoke first set down his cup, “That is true…
but both the Third and Fourth Ancestors of Longevity Sect disagree, perhaps they fear that yielding now would be a show of weakness, leading to further retreats with each step.”
“But the Longevity Sect has no reason not to retreat.”
Coldly spoke Saintess Mingguang Fang Xiu Yan, “The Longevity Taoist Lord has fallen, his death is confirmed.
Indeed, the Longevity Taoist Lord was a respected senior, but our respect only means we will allow Longevity Sect one final bottom line.
It does not grant them the leeway for unrestrained actions.
Times have changed.
It’s been more than twenty years since it was announced that the Fifth Ancestor broke through to Divine Transformation, yet he has never shown himself.
Likely, it is but a bluff to buy time.
We must fulfill our sect’s plan this time and force Longevity Sect to renounce Xianling Sacred Sect.”
“The Fifth Ancestor of Longevity is an extraordinary individual, not to be taken lightly…”
An Elder hesitated, “We should still focus on probing first to confirm whether he has truly achieved Divine Transformation.”
Fang Xiu Yan frowned, “Even if he truly has, my teacher Venerable Mingguang is now in the late stage of Divine Transformation.
Why do you always hesitate?
Are you that scared because of the title ‘Fighting Longevity Monarch’?”
The two Elders of Mingguang Sect looked at each other upon hearing this, each seeing a mix of reluctance and a wry smile in the other’s eyes.
After all, this Holy Maiden had only emerged as an exceptional figure in the past few decades, ascending to become the Holy Maiden of Mingguang Sect, and ultimately, she had not experienced the terrifying dread that the Fighting Longevity Monarch once instilled on the battlefield.
If this person were to truly achieve Divine Transformation, it would be unlike any ordinary such achievement.
Even Venerable Mingguang would not dare to underestimate him.
Otherwise, how could a mere Xianling Sacred Sect vie with Mingguang Sect and Yongxin Sword Sect for followers and territories?
Just then, a young Dao child stepped in surreptitiously, and upon receiving permission, immediately reported a message from outside the door.
The three inside heard the last piece of news and exchanged looks of shock.
“Longevity Sect Leader He Yingyu has gone to Chang’an Market to visit the Keeper of a tavern?”
An Elder’s expression slightly changed as he looked towards Saintess Mingguang Fang Xiu Yan, “Your Highness Holy Maiden, it seems that the tavern keeper you injured a few days ago has managed to draw the attention of the Longevity Sect Leader.”
Fang Xiu Yan’s expression shifted before quickly returning to calm, she coldly said, “This is within our expectations.
We had received information that the keeper had some relationship with Longevity Sect, which is why we chose that location to ‘beat the grass to scare the snake.’
A mere Foundation Establishment cultivator, yet willing to be a tavern keeper in Chang’an Market – it’s quite possible he is an Executive of Longevity Sect.
We feigned ignorance in striking, which served to test the subsequent reactions of Longevity Sect, lest they always refrain from taking action, leaving us with no opportunity to take a bite out of this old turtle, to provoke them.
I just hadn’t expected that this keeper seemed to have some relationship with that Crane Leader.
With this, it’s even better…”
After overcoming their initial shock, the Elders could not help but reveal smiles.
Indeed, it was better.
Next, whether Longevity Sect chooses to take offense and demand retribution or decide to swallow their pride, they could use this to gauge the true state of Longevity Sect.
As for why they hurt that tavern keeper, did they need a reason?
Who could clearly know the relationship between the tavern keeper and Longevity Sect?
Saintess Mingguang Fang Xiu Yan smiled coldly, “Hiding in the shadows, if they are not rats, they are just little devils.
We are, ‘Ignorance is not a sin!'”
“Well said, ‘Ignorance is not a sin.'”
At that moment, suddenly, a cold snort sounded out of nowhere, striking like thunder and abruptly exploding amidst the spirit of the Holy Maiden and the two Elders.
Boom!!——
Their heads instantly thundered as if about to burst, their bodies stiffening and numbing.
The two Elders stared with rigid eyes for a long while before blood sprayed from all their orifices like fountains.
Saintess Mingguang Fang Xiu Yan’s Soul World exploded tumultuously, pulling at her Divine Spirit and shaking her entire body, as if her veins were about to burst.
She let out a scream and thudded to the ground.
In that instant, a jade token resembling the life-saving talisman of the Daoist of Longevity Sect flew out from beneath her collar, dispersing a grand deluge of Incense Fire Power, forming the figure of an elderly man emanating light.
“Which Daoist friend is this, please show mercy!!”
