16 Of Course, The Next Step Was To Take The Initiative To Attack

"Elder Liang, what else do you have to say?"

Jiang Cheng was not an emotionless doll. He had been ridiculed previously, so now that he had used his ability to show off his 'strength', it was only right to return the favor.

"Didn't you say that I was only at the fourth level of the soul division realm?"

"Didn't you say that I would die without a doubt?"

"Didn't you say that as long as I could reclaim the Flying Immortal sect, you would recognize me as the sect master?"

Elder Liang was tongue-tied and completely unable to defend himself.

Of course, he really did not want Jiang Cheng to become the sect master.

Moreover, looking at Jiang Cheng's cultivation level, he was clearly still at the fourth level of the soul division realm.

However, he had seen that terrifying heavenly lightning just now with his own two eyes, so there was no way it could have been fake.

He did not dare to probe further, and thought that Jiang Cheng was a senior expert who had deliberately lowered his own soul and spiritual qi fluctuations to confuse others.

Faced with the subtle gazes of the other disciples, he could only bow his head reluctantly.

"Liang Da greets the sect master!"

"No need for formalities!"

Jiang Cheng secretly curled his lips. This old b*stard, the system did not even send out a notification, which meant that elder Liang did not sincerely acknowledge him as the sect master and was just putting on an act.

He figured that the system could be used as a detection mechanism for traitors in the future.

After taking back the sect grounds, everyone was both excited and sad at the same time.

Some of the disciples even wept as they searched the area for the bodies of their late masters beneath the rubble.

Jiang Cheng did not disturb them.

They buried all the bodies of the Flying Immortal sect elders and disciples who had died in battle and paid their respects together. Then, they got down to official business.

"Now that we have taken back the sect grounds, it's time for us to consider the next step."

"I've decided to attack the Extreme Moon sect immediately!"

"We'll pay back this blood debt!"

These few words made the blood of the disciples boil, and their eyes were filled with fighting spirit.

If it had been someone else who said those words, they would have definitely felt that the person was overestimating himself.

They had just returned to the sec, and had not even stabilized the sect's foundation yet.

The foundations of the four sects were still intact, and only a small portion of them had died here this time. They would soon return for revenge.

Taking the initiative to attack at this time seemed a little too rash.

However, the 'strength' that Jiang Cheng had just displayed was just too great, which gave everyone great confidence, to the point that it seemed almost natural for them to immediately charge forward to take revenge on the four sects.

"When does sect master plan to set off?"

Everyone rubbed their palms together and sharpened their knives.

"I'll go now, but you guys can just stay here."

Jiang Cheng looked at everyone. "There are many people at the Extreme Moon sect. If we all charge forward together, I might not be able to protect everyone's safety."

"Moreover, our Flying Immortal sect grounds have just been reclaimed. In order to prevent some despicable people from taking advantage of the situation, we need all of you to guard it!"

When he said this, everyone nodded repeatedly.

Indeed, the sect master himself was super strong, but they themselves were far too weak.

If there was a soul division elder who slipped through the net, they would all be wiped out.

If they followed along, the sect master would be distracted and would have to take care of them instead.

Thus, everyone sent Jiang Cheng off at the sect's mountain gate.

Ji Linghan was especially unwilling to see him go alone.

They had only been together for one day, yet she had already become somewhat reliant on Jiang Cheng. This sudden separation was actually rather uncomfortable for her.

"Sect master, you must take care of yourself!"

Jiang Cheng thought to himself, I still have one more resurrection chance today. I'm as steady as an old dog. Sister, you're worrying too much.

"While I'm not around, help me look after my home and take good care of my daughter!"

Holding her delicate little hand, brother Cheng's heart was also filled with emotion.

Just as he was about to turn around and leave, elder Liang suddenly jumped out.

"Sect master, although your strength is profound, if you go alone, I'm afraid you might miss something!"

"I'm not talented, but I'm willing to go with you!"

"As an elder, it's my duty to take revenge for the sect!"

His words rang out loud and clear.

His righteous attitude made him look like a soldier who was about to embark on a suicidal mission.

In reality, elder Liang had thought this through carefully.

Were it not for Jiang Cheng, the super powerful god, he would not have gone on this mission.

With just the two of them, they were going to charge into the base camp where the other party's experts were gathered. Were they courting death?

However, when he thought about Jiang Cheng's shocking strength, which could destroy 18 soul division realm warriors with a wave of his hand, he felt relieved.

What was there to be afraid of if he followed this person?

There was a possibility that accidents might occur to these yuan gathering realm disciples back here. He was at the fifth level of the soul division realm, and he would be able to survive even if he encountered a single enemy elder.

Most importantly, this was a 'lucrative job'!

Taking down the Extreme Moon sect could be considered an extremely meritorious achievement in itself. In the future, when the Flying Immortal sect once again developed and grew, this achievement would serve as a badge of honor in his fight for seniority in the sect!

Such a badge of honor would truly come in handy in such a situation.

Moreover, after taking down the Extreme Moon sect, would he not then be able to participate in the subsequent harvest of the spoils of war?

There were so many hidden treasures owned by the Extreme Moon sect's elders, as well as a large amount of resources from the alchemy hall, the array formation hall, the talisman hall, and the treasure pavilion, the scripture hall..

When the other party was completely wiped out, he would be like a rat that had fallen into a vat of rice.

Even if the most precious treasures were taken away by Jiang Cheng, he would still be able to pick up the scraps at the back until he was stuffed to death, right?

Such a good opportunity could not be missed!

Even if this kid did not agree, he would still secretly follow him later. He would risk his life to get on this train!

How could Jiang Cheng believe elder Liang's enthusiastic ramblings? The system had not even bothered to send him a notification, so it was obvious that the other party had his own benefits in mind when signing himself up for this mission.

After a little guesswork, he easily managed to see through elder Liang's plan.

However, he did not expose him on the spot.

"Good! It's rare for elder Liang to be so enthusiastic!"

Brother Cheng gave him a thumbs up.

He patted his shoulder heavily and said seriously, "Since you possess such determination, let's go there together!"

"I will heed the sect master's order!"

Elder Liang was overjoyed.

No matter how strong this kid was, he seemed to be simple-minded and easy to fool.

Elder Liang even began to imagine how he would stir up trouble within the Flying Immortal sect when he became stronger in the future.

The two of them flew all the way and soon arrived at the Extreme Moon sect's grounds thousands of miles away.

Looking at the mountain gate that was covered by tens of thousands of clouds, elder Liang could not help but feel a little apprehensive.

A sect was not that easy to attack. Not only was it guarded by experts, but there was also the sect-protecting array formation that had to be dealt with.

Once it was activated, the attacking enemies would fall into a disadvantageous position.

The Flying Immortal sect had been breached last time because the four sects had joined forces.

If only two sects had come, the Flying Immortal sect would have been able to survive.

He could not help but move closer to Jiang Cheng. When the battle started, he had to hide behind this expert.

At this very moment, Jiang Cheng was talking to the system.

"System, I have a question to ask."

He originally thought that the system would play dead like before but, to his surprise, the system actually responded this time.

"One question costs 500 points."

"Would the host like to continue with the question?"

It was too sinister, charging such an exorbitant price for a mere question. Did the dog system have a mouth with diamonds embedded inside it?

Did it know how hard it was to earn 500 points?

He had more than 1,300 points now, 500 of which had been left over from the last time Ji Linghan acknowledged him as sect master.

He had originally planned to save them up for the next level upgrade, or to draw another lottery prize.

Resisting the urge to swear, he chose to spend 500 points and asked his question.

"Can I ask whether charging up to attack the Extreme Moon sect like this is considered suicide?"

This question concerned his life. No matter how many points he had to spend, he still had to ask.

The heavenly tribulation lightning from before had already been used up, and he was only at the fourth level of the soul division realm now.

Compared to the Extreme Moon sect, the difference in strength between the two parties was extremely large.

If his actions were deemed to be an act of courting death, then he had to make the necessary adjustments to the plan.

For example, he would have to think of a plan, set a trap, and make the Extreme Moon sect's people attack him first…
