Chapter 727: He Clearly Was Just a Cultivation Long-term Resident (1)
Before Qi Huang appeared, the HongHua Sect had always been the weakest sect in Yongning Prefecture, and even in the Xihui Dynasty. It had no resources to retain people, so disciples came and went as they pleased, and leaving the sect was commonplace. The few people whispering just now were typical examples. These few people were naturally familiar to Qi Huang, after all, they were her former fellow disciples and had mocked her, a cultivation long-term resident, quite a bit back then.
Later, these people felt that staying in the HongHua Sect had no future, so they strongly requested to sever their master-disciple relationship with Hu Bing and went their separate ways. They did not realize at all that even in a place like the HongHua Sect, they were not valued, let alone elsewhere. Their current predicaments were the best proof.
As Hu Bing’s disciple, Qi Huang naturally could not stand by and watch these traitors who abandoned their sect return to disgust people, so she decided to “clean the house” for her master.
At this moment, Huang Tian was staring blankly at the main door of the HongHua Sect. Compared to Qi Huang, he was more like the real Huang Qi, as he had not undergone a gender change and had not experienced differences in identity.
“I never thought I would return to the HongHua Sect as Huang Qi one day.”
Huang Tian was filled with mixed emotions. Although he had only witnessed everything in his main body’s Sea of Consciousness back then, he also felt the same empathy.
“Come in, the stage has been set for you. It’s time for you to perform. Don’t be nervous.”
Qi Huang reminded him through mind transmission.
“Don’t worry, as long as I have strength, why would I be nervous?”
Huang Tian responded confidently and walked towards the main door of the HongHua Sect with an indifferent stride. His spiritual sense had already reached the late stage of Huashen Realm, which was stronger than the sect leader of the HongHua Sect. What was there to fear?
“Who goes there? This is a forbidden area of the Immortal Alliance. Outsiders are not allowed.”
An older middle-aged guard at the gate immediately stepped forward to stop him.
“Greetings, Senior Brother. I am Deacon Hu’s disciple, and I’ve come today to celebrate his birthday.”
Huang Tian politely cupped his fists and saluted.
“Deacon Hu’s disciple? Do you have proof?”
The middle-aged guard reached out to ask for it.
Huang Tian paused for a moment and then pointed to his face, saying, “Is my face not enough? Huang Qi, the cultivation long-term resident. Aren’t any of you there familiar with me? It’s not like you are all new arrivals, right?”
“Do you recognize him?”
The middle-aged guard turned to ask.
“I remember! I remember!”
At this moment, another guard disciple exclaimed, “Indeed, he is Huang Qi, our HongHua Sect’s former cultivation long-term resident. He was expelled, but he shamelessly stayed in the sect for many years, and later caused his master, Deacon Hu, to lose an arm.”
“Yes, yes, yes! That’s me!”
Huang Tian said excitedly, but he still retorted, “You should have heard that I was framed by Elder He. If I hadn’t been given Xieqisan, I wouldn’t have become a cultivation long-term resident.”
“Hehe!”
The guards chuckled noncommittally.
“Since he is a former disciple of Deacon Hu, you can go in. However, you need to register.”
The middle-aged guard took out a small booklet and asked for registration.
Huang Tian obediently did as he was told and then entered the main door of the HongHua Sect.
Seeing her clone enter the door, Qi Huang also walked towards her master’s courtyard. She had to personally witness Huang Tian clear the humiliation she had suffered!
As for Cheng Hong Ling, she was wholeheartedly cultivating and naturally wouldn’t care about these trivial matters.
Qi Huang could hear the commotion from a distance as she approached her master’s courtyard. There were crowds of people on both sides of the road, indicating how lively it was.
Concubine Qi, you’re here?
Greetings, Fairy Hong Ling!
Upon seeing Qi Huang, the passersby all greeted her respectfully. Those who knew her specific identity called her “Fairy Qi,” while those who didn’t called her “Fairy Hong Ling.” In the eyes of outsiders, the main body and the clone were one person.
Thank you all for your hard work!
Qi Huang returned their greetings one by one. After all, she was Deacon Hu’s disciple and naturally had to play the host.
Upon arriving at the courtyard, Qi Huang naturally had to pay her respects to her master and ask if he needed anything.
At the moment, Hu Bing was surrounded by his former disciples, most of whom had ulterior motives, although a small number were purely there to congratulate him.
Qi Huang was now a woman, so it was inconvenient to push her way through and could only wait impatiently on the periphery. Fortunately, her appearance came in handy.
Those disciples soon noticed Qi Huang and consciously made way for her, as if giving her a grand welcome.
Qi Huang couldn’t be bothered with this group of hypocrites. She nimbly walked up to Deacon Hu, cupped her fists, and offered her blessings, “Deacon Hu, this junior congratulates you on your good health and all the best! Are you satisfied with my arrangements? If you have any other needs, please do not hesitate to mention them!”
“Junior Nephew Qi, you don’t need to worry. I am very satisfied. Thank you for your hard work.”
Deacon Hu quickly stood up and returned the salute with cupped fists.
“That’s good! If you have any needs, you can tell me anytime!”
Qi Huang reiterated, then gracefully walked away, as she could no longer stand the lascivious gazes of the men around her.
“Junior Sister! Come sit over here!”
Just then, Qi Huang suddenly heard a familiar female voice.
Qi Huang looked in the direction of the voice and saw several Senior Sisters sitting in a corner. She felt like she had been granted amnesty and quickly walked over to sit down, feeling instantly at ease.
Sometime later,
Qi Huang had become accustomed to hanging out with girls. Perhaps it was due to the attraction of the opposite sex, or perhaps it was because she had become used to being a woman.
In any case, she firmly believed in her heart that it was the former.
Who is that girl? She’s so beautiful. I thought I was hallucinating just now.
You don’t even recognize her? It’s Cheng Hong Ling, the pride of the HongHua Sect! To be precise, it’s Cheng Hong Ling’s clone.
I know Cheng Hong Ling. She only started to shine after I left.
Indeed, judging by the time, she was still a little girl who hadn’t even been weaned when we left!
Are you looking for death? Aren’t you afraid she’ll hear you? She’s now a cultivator in the Shentong Realm, and she’s extremely beautiful and tragic!
Why is she tragic if she’s beautiful and strong?
Beauty and strength refer to her, while tragedy refers to you.
As Qi Huang left, her former Senior Brothers couldn’t help but whisper amongst themselves, but their words were not too excessive.
At this moment, Ruan Lingyu next to her crushed a soundproofing talisman and quietly asked Qi Huang, “Junior Sister, after so much time has passed, I wonder how Wenren family is doing?”
Yes, I wonder if the Immortal Alliance has gone to trouble them!
Yun Fei added, and the other Senior Sisters also leaned over curiously.
“I killed three elders of the Immortal Alliance. How could they possibly let the Wenren family off? I went to Changming Country a few days ago and found out they have already gone to trouble them.”
Qi Huang explained the situation. She went to Zhongzhou some time ago specifically to sell fertilizer.
Ah? Did they betray us?
Yun Fei asked anxiously.
“It’s better to offend only one party, so he let his son take the blame for us.”
Qi Huang then recounted what she had learned.
“They deserve it. This is called harming others and harming oneself!”
Ruan Lingyu scoffed.
“Junior Sister is truly amazing. She easily made the Wenren family pay a heavy price, and without implicating us.”
Yun Fei’s beautiful eyes revealed a look of admiration.
“What cowards. Even if we were implicated, so what? With Junior Sister here, are we still afraid of the Immortal Alliance?”
Shen Yuan reprimanded, appearing even more confident than Qi Huang herself.
“Counting on Junior Sister for everything, isn’t peace better? I am a peace-loving person.”
Yun Fei explained.
“Oh, spare me! You Senior Sister are full of mischief and always try to stir up trouble between me and Junior Sister. How dare you claim to love peace!”
Shen Yuan saw right through her mercilessly.
“What? You’ve forgotten after only a few days? Who instigated me to choose sides between Junior Sister’s main body and clone in Treasure Land of Tencel Valley? This has not happened once or twice, and I am not the only victim.”
Shen Yuan exposed her without hesitation.
“Yes, Second Senior Sister is very bad. She’s always secretly plotting against us.”
Miao Xiang also complained aggrievedly from the side.
Yun Fei was immediately speechless and then subjected to the verbal attacks of several of her fellow disciples.
Qi Huang shook her head helplessly, too lazy to deal with the lively bunch. Her spiritual sense scanned outwards, and she found that her clone had already walked over along the dirt path outside the courtyard.
