I Just Want To Destroy The Sect, But How Did I Become A God Against All Odds
Chapter 207: Is Chu Xinghe acting recklessly?

The news from Zhou Medical Hall naturally reached the higher-ups of the Grand Sky Sect.

At this moment, Sect Master Gu Mingchao, Deputy Sect Master Yan Shoujing, and the heads of each palace were sitting in the Grand Sky Palace discussing the matter.

"Does a mere Zhou Medical Hall want us to retreat? They must be courting death." Gu Mingchao sneered with disdain.

This time, however, the Great Elder smiled bitterly and said, "Sect Master, you may not know, if it were just Zhou Medical Hall, they would never dare to challenge the Grand Sky Sect. The truth is, countless forces support Zhou Medical Hall from behind, which is their greatest confidence."

Hearing the Great Elder's words, Yan Shoujing nodded silently on the side.

What is Zhou Medical Hall? Not to mention the Grand Sky Sect, any of the Top Ten Sects could easily crush Zhou Medical Hall to death.

But that's just the surface of Zhou Medical Hall.

In recent years, Zhou Medical Hall has captured a huge market share by selling low-grade pills. In the low-end pill market, Zhou Medical Hall practically has no rivals.

However, this is all due to the involvement of various forces. Zhou Medical Hall is just the facade; behind it, countless forces are at play. As Yan Shoujing knew, not only the major sects but even the Demonic Sect had a stake in Zhou Medical Hall.

This is the main reason for Zhou Medical Hall's arrogance.

When it comes to high-end pills, the Grand Sky Sect is indeed unbeatable.

But low-end pills are a different story. Zhou Medical Hall excels in producing a large quantity of low-end pills daily, thanks to their mastery of alchemy scraps.

In the production of low-end pills, even the Grand Sky Sect is not a match.

So if this conflict really breaks out, the opponent is not just Zhou Medical Hall but a complex web of forces intertwined with it.

Even if the Medicine King Palace has an endless stock of low-end pills, the Great Elder is not entirely confident of a guaranteed victory if the fight drags on.

"You all know Xinghe, right? At this point, he won't back down easily. After all, this is about the sect's reputation, and Xinghe would never let the sect lose face!"

Although Gu Mingchao didn't understand pill refining, he understood Xinghe. This child would do anything for the sect, so how could he accept something that would disgrace the sect?

"Exactly! This matter concerns the reputation of our Grand Sky Sect. Even if Xinghe is willing, I won't agree!" Yan Shoujing was the first to jump out in opposition.

Are you kidding... going to war with Zhou Medical Hall is like the Grand Sky Sect taking on countless forces alone. Even if the Grand Sky Sect ultimately wins, it would be a pyrrhic victory with heavy losses.

This is a golden opportunity to deplete the Grand Sky Sect's resources, and Yan Shoujing wouldn't miss it!

According to Yan Shoujing's thinking, if it comes to a desperate fight, it would be best if all forces suffer heavy casualties against the Grand Sky Sect.

The Great Elder shook his head and smiled bitterly, "The Sect Master and Deputy Sect Master are both correct, but as the head of the Spirit Crane Palace, I know the Medicine King Palace best."

"With the current strength of the Spirit Crane Palace, we can suppress Zhou Medical Hall in the short term. Even if we suffer losses in manpower and resources, it's not unbearable for the Grand Sky Sect. But if we push Zhou Medical Hall too hard and all forces get involved, the outcome would be unpredictable."

As soon as the Great Elder finished speaking, Elder He stood up, "If we can't win with alchemy, leave it to me. My Thunder Palace can wipe Zhou Medical Hall off the map overnight."

"Sect Master, I think it's better for our Green Wood Palace to take action this time. Last time, Thunder Palace took forever to deal with the White Crane Sect. Leave it to us, and we can flatten Zhou Medical Hall by midnight at the latest," Elder Yu said defiantly.

"Old Yu, you're getting on in years, so take a rest. Let our Eternal Spring Palace handle it. We don't even need to lift a finger; just poisoning them would be enough to wipe out Zhou Medical Hall."

A group of elders chimed in one after another, and Yan Shoujing wholeheartedly supported them!

Fight! Fight!

But the Great Elder waved his hand to silence everyone and said, "Gentlemen, it hasn't come to that yet. Even with so many forces behind them, Zhou Medical Hall would never dare to face us head-on. This matter started with the Wan family; Zhou Medical Hall is merely testing our Grand Sky Sect's attitude."

"According to my prediction, in the coming days, Zhou Medical Hall will choose to back down, lay low, and show the world that they don't dare to oppose the Grand Sky Sect."

As the Great Elder spoke, the room fell silent. The elders knew he was right.

What? Has Zhou Medical Hall gone mad? Even with countless forces behind them, would they really dare to go all out against the Grand Sky Sect?

Even if Zhou Medical Hall has lost its mind, have the forces behind them grown tired of living?

Is the Grand Sky Sect's sword not sharp anymore? Or is the Grand Sky Sect now afraid to strike?

So, as the Great Elder said, the Grand Sky Sect just needs to do nothing, and Zhou Medical Hall will naturally come to apologize, admitting their faults, promising not to touch the Wan family again, and acknowledging that the Grand Sky Sect is magnanimous.

This is essentially a conclusion both sides can accept and be satisfied with. The Great Elder has handled sect affairs for many years, and he can see through Zhou Medical Hall's little tricks.

As for Xinghe, with the Wan family saved and Zhou Medical Hall coming to apologize later, helping his junior sister, and the sect not losing face, what opinion could Xinghe possibly have?

The elders nodded in agreement, acknowledging the Great Elder's stability.

Even Gu Mingchao nodded, agreeing to handle the matter as the Great Elder suggested. Of course, make sure to explain it clearly to Xinghe, so the child doesn't feel wronged.

Yan Shoujing was helpless. Such a good opportunity to deplete the sect's resources, and the Great Elder resolved it... but the Great Elder's plan had no flaws, and opposing it now would be unreasonable.

Just as everyone agreed with the Great Elder's plan, a spirit bird flew into the Grand Sky Palace.

The spirit bird landed in Gu Mingchao's hand, and under everyone's gaze, he opened it. After just one glance, Gu Mingchao's eyes turned red!

Gu Mingchao immediately displayed the message from the spirit bird to everyone, and the scene almost exploded.

"Is Zhou Medical Hall crazy? Accusing Xinghe of misconduct? Are they tired of living?" Elder He rolled up his sleeves and jumped up.

As Elder He said, the message from the spirit bird came from Zhou Medical Hall.

Zhou Medical Hall was considerate enough to fear that the Grand Sky Sect might not understand their intentions, so they sent a spirit bird to explain.

The message was simple, stating that Zhou Medical Hall had no intention of opposing the Grand Sky Sect, and the conflict was a misunderstanding. Zhou Medical Hall was willing to apologize, offer a million spirit stones, and promise not to touch the Wan family again. They would publicly announce that Zhou Medical Hall was in the wrong and that the Grand Sky Sect was magnanimous.

Zhou Medical Hall would never dare provoke the Grand Sky Sect again.

Everything was perfect, except for the last part about Xinghe's misconduct.

If not for that last line about Xinghe's misconduct, Zhou Medical Hall's proposal would have been identical to the Great Elder's, and the Grand Sky Sect would have accepted it.

But the problem is Xinghe's misconduct?

Zhou Medical Hall, are you tired of living?

Look at Elder He; if not for the Great Elder holding him back, he would have already gone to Thunder Palace to gather people.

Xinghe's misconduct? Are you courting death?

Trying to make Xinghe take the blame? Does Zhou Medical Hall even deserve that?

The Great Elder's face turned dark. Zhou Medical Hall's approach was not inherently wrong.

Often, conflicts between two forces are resolved by having a disciple take the blame.

After all, what's a little grievance for a disciple for the sect's benefit?

But the problem is, this is Chu Xinghe!

You say our Xinghe's misconduct caused the misunderstanding?

That's simply impossible!

The Great Elder was the first to jump out, "Sect Master, Zhou Medical Hall is courting death. Leave this matter to Xinghe. Xinghe never acts without reason; if he wants to confront Zhou Medical Hall, he must have a plan!"

"The Great Elder is right; let's continue to watch and wait!"

"Excellent... excellent! Even if Xinghe loses, does the Grand Sky Sect care about a few losses?"

"I, Yu Yuyu, support Xinghe!"

Gu Mingchao nodded solemnly in agreement.

Zhou Medical Hall, you're tired of living, accusing Xinghe of misconduct? You're asking for death!

Yan Shoujing looked bewildered as the elders slammed the table, declaring Zhou Medical Hall's path to destruction.

If Yan Shoujing had seen Zhou Medical Hall's message on the spirit bird earlier, he would have agreed immediately.

After all, it's just a statement about Chu Xinghe's misconduct, and the sect would gain a million spirit stones plus various apologies from Zhou Medical Hall. It seemed like a great deal.

But Yan Shoujing never expected that for Xinghe's reputation, even the Great Elder, who advocated for a peaceful resolution, would slam the table and insist on a fight to the end.

At that moment, Yan Shoujing realized that Chu Xinghe's status in the Grand Sky Sect was beyond his comprehension.

The meeting ended amid a chorus of curses, with Gu Mingchao personally ordering that all dealings with Zhou Medical Hall be left to Xinghe. Whatever Xinghe decided, the others would follow. With Xinghe's prudence, taking down Zhou Medical Hall would be child's play.

Even if we lost in the pill arena, crushing Zhou Medical Hall would be a joke.

At Zhou Medical Hall, Zhou Fengshan was drinking tea with the Zhou family elders. He hadn't expected the Grand Sky Sect to intervene in the Wan family's takeover.

Although the Wan family was impressive, Zhou Medical Hall had no choice but to retreat when faced with the Grand Sky Sect.

Despite his reluctance, Zhou Fengshan believed his proposal to the Grand Sky Sect was perfect.

A million spirit stones were nothing to Zhou Medical Hall, and apologies were even less of a concern.

But the situation with Chu Xinghe left Zhou Fengshan feeling uneasy, so he added the line about Xinghe's misconduct as his final act of defiance.

Soon, a spirit bird flew in, landing in Zhou Fengshan's hand.

Zhou Fengshan smiled, expecting the message to be blank, indicating the Grand Sky Sect's acceptance.

He slowly opened the spirit bird, but as soon as he did, Zhou Fengshan was dumbfounded.

"War!"
