Treacherous Leader Xing (Asking for Monthly Tickets)_3 Chapter 573: 252~253: A Turn of Events in the Sect!
Treacherous Leader Xing (Asking for Monthly Tickets)_3 “I’ve troubled sister He…”
He Yingyu withdrew her hand from the gestures and complained loudly, “What are you talking about, brother Chen?
Our current living conditions aren’t bad at all.
We are surrounded by a three-level spiritual vein; a resource that many cultivators can’t enjoy.
We just need to spend some spirit crystals.”
At her words, warmth filled Chen Dengming’s heart.
He stepped closer, hugged her soft shoulders, and chuckled, “That’s true.
...
We still have tens of thousands of spirit crystals that would last us for a long time.”
“You are such a miser.
Short of funds in the past, spending a little money now makes you cringe.”
He Yingyu looped her arm around his shoulder, giggling, “Well, it seems you have a sense of guilt.
Feeling sorry for the spirit crystals, but still remembering to care for me as well.”
Chen Dengming chuckled and panted, “Sister He, no amount of spirit crystals can buy you, of course, I would worry more about you.”
After their playful exchange, they stopped cleaning for the day.
The journey was long and tiring, filled with repression.
It was a time to cultivate, relieve fatigue and adjust their emotions.
They soon collected their brother Chu Xun from the flag and started practicing together, solidifying their cultivation.
…
Later that day.
At night.
Chen Dengming laid on the bed in their new dwelling, listening to He Yingyu washing up.
He tossed and turned, finding it hard to adjust to their new living environment.
“Even though I’ve advanced to the Golden Core realm, I still can’t get used to sleeping on a new bed.
What have I formed in myself?
Is it a kidney stone or a Golden Core?”
Smirmed Chen Dengming, considered the potential threat of the evil curse, he summoned the Mini Array Spirit to safeguard Yingyu while she washed, guarding her against any rogue peeping toms.
He went outside, basking in the chilly, cold breeze of the night, watching the stars in the distance.
The current season was the end of summer.
In the heavenly sky, the seven celestial stems and branches shaped like a dragon stretching across the horizon, glowing brilliantly.
Chen Dengming’s left eye reflected the blue power of the Heavenly Immortal Dao, while his right eye the silver power of the Human Immortal Dao.
His spirit connected with his incarnations at the Longevity Sect.
Through his spiritual connection, he vaguely sensed the current circumstances of his incarnations.
A distance of thirty thousand kilometers was indeed too far away.
Although the power of the spirit could ignore time and space, to understand the situation of his incarnations clearly and empathize with them required more Heart Force.
Currently, there was no need to establish such Heartfelt Perception.
After confirming that both his incarnations were safe and could handle the situation within the sect, Chen Dengming sighed with relief.
The previous time he battled Elder She Xiner from the North Spirit Sect, he had exposed the existence of his incarnation, Bai Mao.
The North Spirit Sect would surely be cautious of his tactics.
If there were undercover agents from the Demon Cultivation within his sect, they might try to test his incarnations left at the Longevity Sect.
However, such a mission carries the risk of exposure, so they might not attempt it.
After all, he is also a Daoist, and not every cultivator in the sect could easily meet him.
A high-status cultivator exposed as a traitor, just to test one of his incarnations, would be a losing proposition in any calculation.
“Judging from time, in five days the battle between the Holy Mother of Beiyin and the Ancestor of our Longevity Sect will begin.”
After he gathered his spirit, he sensed a vibration from the communication device in his storage bag.

He immediately went to the backyard, took out a large communication device that looked like an altar and placed it there.
He also took out other formation devices that accompanied the communication device, dug and placed them according to the positions prescribed by the formation theory.
This was the tiny Message Formation that Xing Huiguang prepared for him.
Although it was a small Message Formation, the weight of the device and its accompanying formation devices was already several tons, much heavier than ordinary Jade Talisman for Message Transmission.
With this Message Formation, it was possible to communicate with Xing Huiguang over tens of thousands of kilometers.
Chen Dengming performed the ritual to activate the formation and a ray of spiritual light fell in the altar-like device at the center.
Immediately, a faintly glowing device lights up, and within it, Xing Huiguang’s divine thought was heard, inquiring whether he had arrived at the border town.
Once Chen Dengming confirmed arrival, Xing Huiguang conveyed some recent news.
“Brother Chen, now that you’ve settled there, your brothers and I can be at ease.”
There are some things I need to tell you now.
You don’t have to worry too much about the sect.”
“In fact, even before the Holy Mother of Beiyin challenged our sect, the Ancestor already left his retreat and advanced to the Nascent Soul Completion.”
Chen Dengming, “….”
Damn you, you old cunning man!
The Ancestor left the retreat a long time ago, and you didn’t tell me, his disciple.
That day, when you rang the Longevity bell to gather, you looked tired and vexed, secretly arranging my escape, preparing your so-called will.
And now you’re telling me, it’s alright.
Were you just playing a scene with me?
Chen Dengming froze for a moment, resisting the urge to curse at Xing Huiguang and immediately asked about the situation.
His acting skills were alright.
He didn’t need to keep his disciple in the dark to make the act more believable.
However, Xing Huiguang’s strategy had its merits, and Chen Dengming was quite impressed.
The Longevity Sect had one Divine Transformation and three Nascent Souls, and abundant Golden Core disciples in its heyday; it was not a sect to be taken for granted.
Now with careful and cunning strategy, he almost led his disciple Chen Dengming onto the wrong path.
However, the fact that Xing Huiguang deceived everyone to play this act was deeply unsettling.
This indicated that there were traitors among the elders.
This act was meant for somebody to see.
“For thousands of years, our Longevity Sect has been in peace with the world, with a modest and complacent demeanor.
Even at the cost of carrying a reputation for being cowards at fighting, we’ve pursued the Great Dao of Longevity with all our hearts.”
