Chapter 538: Xihe Market

After True Monarch Tian Zhu's external avatar and Jin LiDaoist Master left the Little Demon Cave, it didn't take long for Jin LiDaoist Master to leave the Deadly Sea of Sand and visit the designated targets with True Monarch Tian Zhu's orders. The first target Jin LiDaoist Master visited was Taiyi Sect.

However, when she arrived at Grand Lion Ridge, Sect Master Meng Zhang happened to be away from the sect. Niu Dawei, who is responsible for handling the daily affairs of Taiyi Sect, knew that she alone couldn't handle the situation and specifically requested the presence of Yang Xueyi, who was in seclusion, to receive Jin LiDaoist Master together.Expplôre uptodate stories at

It was a bit inconvenient not to see Meng Zhang, but both Yang Xueyi and Niu Dawei have some authority within Taiyi Sect. After explaining the purpose of her visit, Jin LiDaoist Master hurriedly left.

Meng Zhang's absence from Grand Lion Ridge was not to avoid Jin LiDaoist Master, but because he had important matters to attend to in Jiuqu League. After receiving Jin LiDaoist Master's instructions, Niu Dawei quickly notified Meng Zhang to return as soon as possible through the sect's channels.

At this time, Meng Zhang had already arrived at Xihe Market. He was invited to Jiuqu League by Luo YeDaoist Master to handle some unfinished business related to the Qin Family from years ago.

When Qin Hongying was hired as a guest of Taiyi Sect, she not only demanded many benefits from the sect but also made Meng Zhang and Luo YeDaoist Master swear an oath to do their best to preserve the Qin Family's heritage. Although Qin Hongying had long since died in Myriad Layers Peak, the Qin Family still existed. Meng Zhang and Luo YeDaoist Master were committed to fulfilling their oath.

Qin Hongying was always arrogant and domineering, relying on her strong cultivation base to act tyrannically, seizing and offending many forces, and making numerous enemies. While she was alive, she was able to protect her own family. However, after her death, those enemies came knocking on the door, overwhelming the Qin Family, which lacked a Gold Core Daoist Master.

Of course, most of these so-called enemies were not seeking revenge but rather wanted to take a piece of the Qin Family's wealth. The Qin Family used to be a Gold Core family and enjoyed many benefits thanks to Qin Hongying's power. Now that Qin Hongying was gone, they naturally wanted to reclaim all those benefits.

Such situations were common in Jiuqu League. Many families and sects rose and fell because of this. When the Qin Family was unable to resist, their first thought was to seek help from Luo YeDaoist Master.

Although Meng Zhang never complained to Luo YeDaoist Master about Qin Hongying's actions after becoming a guest of Taiyi Sect, Luo YeDaoist Master had heard about it. Luo YeDaoist Master had promised to do his best to preserve the Qin Family's heritage but had not promised to maintain the Qin Family's original influence.

Luo YeDaoist Master did not refuse the Qin Family's plea for help but only half-heartedly and slowly delayed her response. Taiyi Sect's influence has grown significantly in recent years, and its reputation has gradually spread to Jiuqu League.

Originally, the Qin Family also had a certain share in Xihé Market and was one of the managers. However, after Qin Hongying's death, the Qin Family not only lost their position in the management of Xihé Market but also lost all their interests there.

This was just the beginning of the Qin Family's bad luck. Many forces in the vicinity have been using various excuses to conflict with the Qin Family, including some Gold Core forces.

In the Jiuqu League, there is a basic order in the Cultivation World. Incidents like the extermination of a whole family rarely occur.

However, cultivators have various means and secretive spells, and there are ways to secretly plot against opponents.

Recently, the Qin Family has lost many of its experts for various reasons. Some were disabled in public battles with others, some couldn't tolerate provocations and took the initiative but were killed by their opponents, and some even disappeared without a trace...

The Qin Family's Foundation Building stage cultivators have almost been wiped out. If this continues, there might come a day when a group of foreign bandits will raid the Qin Family and plunder everything.

Even if the Qin Family is not exterminated, they will completely decline and fall.

The high-level figures in the Jiuqu League do not care about the struggles at the bottom. Some radical cultivators even believe that this survival of the fittest can maintain the vitality of the Jiuqu League.

After Meng Zhang and Luo YeDaoist Master met, they briefly discussed and came up with a rough plan.

Next, they ignored the Qin Family's plea for help and leisurely strolled around Xihé Market. From time to time, they also visited nearby forces and exchanged ideas with nearby Gold Core Daoist Masters.
