Establish a Sect
Xiao Yi laughed again in the face of the expectant eyes of the crowd on Smarty Mountain. He held Shangguan Leiting's arm and said, "Mr. Shangguan, I'm deeply honored that Smarty Mountain likes me so much. It's useless to say anything more.We will do as Mr. Shangguan said. In the future, Smarty Mountain and Xiantai Village will be a family!"
"Is that true? Really?" Upon hearing this, Shangguan Leiting was overjoyed and asked urgently.
"Of course!" Xiao Yi replied seriously.
"Haha, this is great!" This time, in addition to Shangguan Leiting, the rest of the people of Smarty Mountain were also excited.
"Greetings, Mr. Xiao and Ms. Mu!" After his excitement had passed, Shangguan Leiting led everyone and cupped his hands together. He respectfully addressed Xiao Yi and Mu Qingwan as he spoke in a loud voice.
"Greetings, Mr. Xiao and Ms. Mu!" Shangguan Zhiqiong and the others hurriedly responded.
Xiao Yi smiled without saying anything and stood with his hands clasped behind his back.
However, Mu Qingwan was very frightened and embarrassed. She hurriedly stood up and walked to the front of the crowd. She helped them up one by one. Then, they turned to Xiao Yi and said, "Xiao Yi, how can we do this? Smarty Mountain is a famous sect. In terms of strength, it's more than one level higher than our Xiantai Village. Mr. Shangguan, you're superior to others. You are making people uneasy."
After listening to the scruples of Mu Qingwan, Xiao Yi smiled and took her hand and said, "Qingwan, you don't have to worry about this. In the future, there will be no distinction between Xiantai Village and Smarty Mountain. There will even be no distinction between Thousand Poisons Sect and Ghost Medical Sect."
"What do you mean?" Mu Qingwan widened her eyes in surprise when she heard the words.
Not only Mu Qingwan, but even Wu Peng, Wu Shizhong, and the others present were also shocked. They didn't know what Xiao Yi meant.
"From today on, I will establish a new sect and integrate all the manpower and material resources under my command to form a brand new sect!" Xiao Yi said loudly. His voice was not loud, but it was sonorous and powerful, directly entering everyone's heart. Before everyone could talk, he turned to Liu Qingfeng and asked in a loud voice, "Mr. Liu, how's the thing I told you about the other day?"
Upon hearing Xiao Yi's question, Poison Sage Liu of the Thousand Poisons Sect got up at once. He bowed to Xiao Yi and said respectfully, "Sect Leader, according to your command, I have visited the Nine Mountains and Eighteen Villages in the Xiantai Mountain these days. Except for the Three Mountains and Five Villages that have been convinced by the Yinfeng Sect, the rest of the Six Mountains and 13 Villages are willing to attach themselves to Xiantai Village, just like us. The 13 Villages and Six Mountains are named the Pearl Mountain, the Sunset Mountain, the Giant Gate Mountain, and the Canopy Mountain..."
"What? All of the 13 Villages and Six Mountains in Xiantai Mountain are willing to attach themselves to Xiantai Village?"
"Although the Six Mountains and 13 Villages in Xiantai Mountain are also small and unknown sects, these forces shouldn't be underestimated when they are united."
"What on earth did Mr. Xiao do to make them willing to submit to him?"
"I guess it must be the temptation of a top-grade pill. Mr. Xiao's influence as an alchemist grandmaster is unimaginable in the Cultivation World where Spiritual Energy and medicinal pills are insufficient."
"Although the Yinfeng Sect is promised a great reward, it is merely a temporary need. How can it be compared with a living Pill Refinement Master like Mr. Xiao?"
"Yes. Also, the evil acts of the Yinfeng Sect are vicious and strange. Although the sects of the Xiantai Mountain are not large, most of us can distinguish right from wrong. Naturally, we are not willing to associate ourselves with evil people."
"You are right. Since we are unwilling to associate with the Yinfeng Sect, the vicious Yinfeng Sect will not let it go. Mr. Xiao, at this moment, communed with the sects of Xiantai Mountain, which can make everyone have a backbone and unite together, preventing them from being retaliated by the Yinfeng Sect."
"That's right. Once Yinfeng Sect didn't manage to win the sect over. They probably taking revenge after."
Everyone was talking about it, and all of them were smart people. In a moment, they had almost figured out the reason behind the shocking news.
"You're right! I decided to establish a sect at this point in time. It has something to do with the Yinfeng Sect. Recently, the Yinfeng Sect rose rapidly, and there were more than a few strange things happening. The attack on Smarty Mountain was an example. If my wife and I hadn't arrived just in time, the conclusion of the Mu Clan's Xiantai Village would have been even worse. Two fists can't fight four hands. This is the only way." Xiao Yi said loudly. As soon as he opened his mouth, the scene immediately quieted down.
"At this moment, I have Xiantai Village, the Thousand Poisons Sect, the Six Mountains and 13 Villages in the vicinity of the Xiantai Mountain, and the Ghost Medical Sect, which was originally led by me. There are already more than 10,000 disciples on the scale. It's a good chance. Moreover, Mr. Shangguan is willing to lead the members of Smarty Mountain to join us. This is Heaven's will. If Heaven wants to teach us, we are just following Heaven's will and taking advantage of this opportunity to establish our own sect here!" Xiao Yi's eyes were like lightning as he looked around the entire place and said.
"Then what's our sect?" Shangguan Zhiqiong's eyes lit up and she asked.
"All the things I've learned come from the Dark Medical Sect. I dare not to forget my roots in this sect, and it's still called the Dark Medical Sect. It's a branch of the Dark Medical Sect. When you travel in the Jianghu in the future, you're all disciples of the Dark Medical Sect. You must adhere to the morality of the Dark Medical Sect. The great doctor is honest and does well in the world. And you must remember that 'The doctor is bright and clear-minded to avoid diseases and illness, and to be careful with his mind. After careful observation, you should never lose. There's no mistake when you're dealing with the needlework. There's no mistake when you're dealing with the treatment.'" Xiao Yi's voice gradually became louder, revealing a unique majesty that was faintly like a big tree. It spread out from the meeting hall, and gradually it spread throughout the entire Xiantai Village.
The disciples of Xiantai Village, who were busy, and the people of the sect, who were taking refuge here, could not help but put down their work and listen respectfully to Xiao Yi's words.
Xiao Yi spoke these words in an unhurried manner as if he was teaching the rules of the Dark Medical Sect or opening a sermon for everyone to hear. Not only did they feel respect in their hearts, it was inevitable that they felt a sense of worship, and they also had a significant improvement in their own cultivation. While Xiao Yi was talking, he inadvertently revealed a few words that could make many disciples puzzled by their cultivation of understanding. In an instant, they were enlightened.
This part of Xiao Yi's speech, which was regarded as the opening, lasted for half an hour. However, when Xiao Yi stopped, everyone seemed to be still immersed in Xiao Yi's words. They frowned and tried to find a way to break through the bottleneck of cultivation by thinking about Xiao Yi's words.
The whole Xiantai Village was quiet, with only the lingering echo lingering around.
Even the Sky-ghost Duanmu Kurong, who had always been restless, had a solemn expression on his face at this moment. He thought about the profound meaning contained in Xiao Yi's words. He was a Warrior Sage of the past. Although he had achieved Tao through martial arts, the three thousand ways of Great Tao were the same. The deeper one's cultivation was, the more one would be able to understand the true meaning of Xiao Yi's words. Naturally, one would not let go of this opportunity to comprehend, ponder, and improve one's cultivation.
It made Duanmu Kurong, who had always looked down upon Xiao Yi, had forgotten to haggle over why Xiao Yi, a mere Gold Elixir Realm cultivator, had such a profound foundation.
Seeing the crowd's situation, Xiao Yi nodded slightly. He did not say anything to stop them, but gave them enough time to digest and experience this kind of preaching. When Xiao Yi was the chief of the Dark Medical Sect in his previous life, he naturally did this kind of preaching. With Xiao Yi's understanding of the Taoist Law, if he showed a little bit of his understanding in his words, everyone would benefit a lot.
After another hour, everyone came to their senses from their meditation. Their eyes were bright and they had benefited a lot.
Moreover, the higher one's cultivation was, the slower one would wake up. Because the deeper one's cultivation was, the more resonated one would get, and the longer one could perceive, the more benefits one would get.
In the end, the one who finally woke up was Duanmu Kurong. This caused everyone to look at the Sky-ghost, who was dressed like a Yu Feiyan-carved little girl, and could not help but shoot a sidelong glance at her.
This result was not out of Xiao Yi's expectations. Duanmu Kurong had once been a Warrior Sage. If not for this, it would be weird.
After everyone came to their senses, Xiao Yi assigned them some basic tasks of the newly established Dark Medical Sect. Some of the tasks were already decided by Xiao Yi, while some were just decided.
Needless to say, the leader of the Dark Medical Sect in the secular world was naturally Xiao Yi. As for the deputy leader, Xiao Yi had set up more than three people. One was Shangguan Leiting. With his decades of experience in taking charge of Smarty Mountain, he deserved the position of deputy leader. The other was Poison Sage Liu Qingfeng. This person was calm and scheming, and he was able to be a general. This was why Xiao Yi would instead take his strike and subdue him completely. The third deputy leader was Wu Shizhong, who was the former leader of the Ghost Medical Sect. He was sophisticated, had great prestige, and was naturally qualified to be the deputy leader.
The rest of them, such as Shangguan Zhiqiong, Ouyang Shi, Xia Yi, Lu Xue, Wu Peng, Hong Xiezi, and the former sect leaders of the Six Mountains and 13 Villages, were all regarded as elders of the Dark Medical Sect by Xiao Yi.
Mu Qingwan took charge of all the pill refining affairs of the new sect. Hu Zhipeng was in charge of refining weapons.
Everyone really did what they could, and they were all happy.
As for the site-selecting of the newly-built sect, Xiao Yi made an unexpected and bold choice. He did not choose Xiantai Mountain as the location of the sect. Instead, he chose the Smarty Mountain.
When this decision was made, all the people looked embarrassed and shocked.
"Sect Leader, there is an entrance to the demon world in Smarty Mountain. Once the Yinfeng Sect once again connects with the demon world, although our Dark Medical Sect has a lot of followers, we may not be able to defeat them." Shangguan Leiting looked worried as he got up and said in a low voice.
"That's right, Xiao Yi. We have to consider this issue. It's as if we're living next to a time bomb. How can the disciples feel at ease?" Mu Qingwan frowned and said in a worried voice.
