I Just Want To Destroy The Sect, But How Did I Become A God Against All Odds
Chapter 208: Great Elder, don't panic, the advantage is on our side!

Without any unnecessary words, a single character for "war" explained everything.

When this character appeared, everyone in the Zhou Medical Hall was dumbfounded.

What the hell is going on?

According to the usual practice, shouldn't the Grand Sky Sect just send a blank spirit bird?

As long as it's blank, our Zhou Medical Hall would know what's up.

Even if it wasn't blank, even if the Grand Sky Sect demanded more money, saying, "Xinghe is our most important disciple, so we need more money..."

Even then, the Zhou Medical Hall could accept it.

The Grand Sky Sect wouldn't have to do anything, and both sides could avoid conflict, making the Zhou Medical Hall retreat. This would be a huge win for the Grand Sky Sect.

But the Grand Sky Sect didn't haggle at all and directly sent a character for "war." What the hell is this?

Zhou Fengshan was dumbfounded. Finally, after some hesitation, he contacted the Great Elder of the strongest faction behind the Zhou Medical Hall.

Hearing Zhou Fengshan's confusion, the other party was silent for a full three minutes.

In the end, the look in his eyes at Zhou Fengshan was like looking at a complete idiot!

Zhou Fengshan, you said your spirit bird was to make peace with the Grand Sky Sect?

That was a declaration of war!

If you had just asked me beforehand, today wouldn't have turned out like this.

Everything you wrote was fine, and the Grand Sky Sect could accept it, but you accused Chu Xinghe of misconduct?

How many heads do you have, Zhou Fengshan, to dare say something so foolish?

Have you sold your brain along with the medicine these years?

Who is Chu Xinghe? What is his status in the Grand Sky Sect?

Anyone who knows a bit about the Grand Sky Sect's internal affairs knows that although Chu Xinghe is nominally the Great Elder's personal disciple, he has long been groomed as the future Sect Master.

To put it simply, the only reason Chu Xinghe hasn't become the Sect Master is because he's still young and his cultivation level isn't high enough.

In a few decades, when Chu Xinghe's cultivation reaches the Martial Emperor level, Gu Mingchao could immediately become the Supreme Elder.

If you want the Grand Sky Sect to publicly declare that a personal disciple is misbehaving, as long as your offer is high enough, the Grand Sky Sect might consider it.

But not Chu Xinghe!

You say Chu Xinghe is misbehaving?

That's like saying the Grand Sky Sect is misbehaving. Chu Xinghe represents the future of the Grand Sky Sect; he is its face. The Grand Sky Sect would never allow anything to harm Chu Xinghe. Is this how you seek peace?

This is a declaration of war!

You want war, and you think the Grand Sky Sect will back down?

Zhou Fengshan was completely stunned after hearing this.

He hadn't thought it through. In the past, when Martial Emperor City had conflicts with the Zhou Medical Hall, the solution was the same. Martial Emperor City would push out a personal disciple to take the blame, and then the Zhou Medical Hall would apologize, resolving everything perfectly.

But this time... it's Chu Xinghe... The Grand Sky Sect won't accept any apology that accuses Chu Xinghe of misconduct!

At this point, Zhou Fengshan knew that a pill war with the Grand Sky Sect was inevitable, so he began to mobilize all the resources of the Zhou family to prepare for it.

Even though the Grand Sky Sect is vast and powerful, if they want to compete with the Zhou family in low-grade pills, the Zhou Medical Hall is not without its defenses.

Since the Grand Sky Sect is so protective of Chu Xinghe, Zhou Fengshan decided to go all out, determined to show the Grand Sky Sect the strength of the Zhou Medical Hall!

In the Wan family, Li Yunxian's face was grim.

Li Yunxian had already heard that Zhou Fengshan sent a spirit bird to seek peace with the Grand Sky Sect, and he was worried that the Grand Sky Sect might be swayed by the Zhou Medical Hall's "apology."

After all, sometimes the so-called game between major powers is just about interests.

If the Zhou Medical Hall offers enough benefits, the Grand Sky Sect might accept, right?

Wasn't that how the conflict between Martial Emperor City and the Zhou Medical Hall was resolved a few years ago? Martial Emperor City pushed out a disciple to take the blame, reached a settlement with the Zhou Medical Hall, and then, just six months later, the Zhou Medical Hall took down the family that Martial Emperor City had protected.

So Li Yunxian was worried that the Wan family might become the next target.

"Mother... you're overthinking it. The Grand Sky Sect is not Martial Emperor City, and Senior Brother Xinghe is not just any personal disciple. To have Senior Brother Xinghe take the blame? If the Zhou Medical Hall tries that, it's a path to destruction!"

Despite her daughter's confidence, Li Yunxian could only shake her head secretly. Daughter, you don't understand the power struggle between forces.

Li Yunxian's worries didn't last long. Soon, news spread from the Grand Sky Sect across the world.

All branches of the Grand Sky Chamber of Commerce began selling various low-grade but high-quality pills, all priced the same as those from the Zhou Medical Hall!

When this news broke, the entire world was in an uproar.

Everyone knew that the Grand Sky Sect was essentially declaring a fight to the death with the Zhou Medical Hall!

All parties involved with the Zhou Medical Hall were stunned. What the hell is going on?

After some investigation, when they learned about Zhou Fengshan's baffling actions, all the forces were speechless.

Zhou Fengshan, why did you send a declaration of war to the Grand Sky Sect?

Everyone was on edge, and the war hadn't even started... there was still room for negotiation, but your declaration of war made it impossible for anyone to intervene now.

What now? Go to the Grand Sky Sect and suggest letting Chu Xinghe take the blame?

Do you believe Gu Mingchao would chase you to the ends of the earth with the Sky-raising Sword?

Chu Xinghe is the Grand Sky Sect's reverse scale, even the Demonic Sect wouldn't dare touch him lightly. Zhou Fengshan, have you lost your mind?

Wan Lin looked at her mother, who was in disbelief, and could only shake her head secretly. Mother, you don't understand Senior Brother Xinghe.

The pill war between the Grand Sky Sect and the Zhou Medical Hall had fully commenced. The strength of the Grand Sky Sect was undeniable, and as soon as they released their pills, they overwhelmed the Zhou Medical Hall.

Anyone with sense would know which to choose between the Grand Sky Sect's pills and the Zhou Medical Hall's pills, right?

At the same price, the Zhou Medical Hall's pills were like garbage compared to the Grand Sky Sect's!

The Grand Sky Sect's pills, whether low-grade or high-grade, were unbeatable in quality. What was the Zhou Medical Hall? They focused on volume.

However, the Zhou Medical Hall didn't back down and directly started a price war.

The Grand Sky Sect lowered prices? Then the Zhou Medical Hall would continue to lower them. Their costs were already much lower.

And they had more people. In a price war, wouldn't the Grand Sky Sect suffer losses?

Regarding the Zhou Medical Hall's price war, Chu Xinghe was extremely excited, constantly issuing various orders in the Grand Sky Sect.

What? The Zhou Medical Hall lowered prices?

Goodness! Want to play a loss game with me... come on, I'll bleed you dry!

Do you know how much inventory we have in the Medicine King Palace? Even I was scared looking at it. Our costs are high, but our inventory is even higher! You want a price war? I'll make sure you lose big.

This nationwide price war brought tears to the eyes of countless rogue cultivators.

Thanks to Brother Xinghe for the low-priced pills... thanks to the Zhou Medical Hall for starting this dispute...

But compared to the rogue cultivators' wild celebrations, the major forces were shaking their heads.

It seemed like the Grand Sky Sect was suppressing the Zhou Medical Hall, but to everyone, it looked like reckless behavior.

After all, both sides were losing, but the Grand Sky Sect's losses were greater.

Think about it, the same pills, even with the same ingredients, what kind of alchemists does the Zhou Medical Hall have?

A bunch of alchemy dregs, their labor costs can't compare to the Grand Sky Sect's.

To refine a First Grade pill, the Grand Sky Sect needs a proper alchemist, but the Zhou Medical Hall doesn't have this concern; they have plenty of dregs.

So after various evaluations, it was concluded that if this continued, the Grand Sky Sect's losses wouldn't matter in the end, but if they kept going, when would it end?

In Martial Emperor City, Zheng Yu looked at the analysis materials sent by the stewards regarding the recent crazy price war between the Grand Sky Sect and the Zhou Medical Hall and fell into deep thought.

According to the materials, the Grand Sky Sect was losing far more than the Zhou Medical Hall, and analysts believed that if this continued, even with the Grand Sky Sect's vast resources, they would eventually have to stop.

Chu Xinghe's baffling actions seemed to temporarily suppress the Zhou Medical Hall, but the cost was using the Grand Sky Sect's pill inventory. But inventory is finite, and what happens when it's depleted?

At that point, the Zhou Medical Hall could continuously have their dregs refine low-grade pills, as that's all they could manage.

But the Grand Sky Sect? Would they have all the disciples of the Medicine King Palace start refining low-grade pills?

Even if they could start, wouldn't it eventually affect the disciples' cultivation? So in terms of quantity, the Grand Sky Sect was at a disadvantage.

"Arrange to sell the shares the Zhou Medical Hall gave us," Zheng Yu said after much thought.

"What?" The stewards were dumbfounded.

Senior Brother Zheng Yu, do you hear what you're saying...

Everyone believes that as long as the Zhou Medical Hall withstands the pressure, they'll stabilize. If they do, when the Grand Sky Sect's inventory runs out and they stop, won't the Zhou Medical Hall soar?

What? You're worried about the Grand Sky Sect's retaliation? With so many powerful forces backing the Zhou Medical Hall, it's not easy for the Grand Sky Sect to act. So selling the shares now? Isn't that a huge loss?

Facing the stewards' persuasion, Zheng Yu was serious: "You've only seen this pill war, but you don't understand Senior Brother Xinghe. He's never failed when he acts. Have you forgotten the lessons from before? Sell them!"

The stewards were speechless, but with Zheng Yu's orders, they had to comply.

The only good news was that selling the Zhou Medical Hall's shares now was indeed a huge profit, as everyone believed the Zhou Medical Hall would withstand this. Once they did, the share price would soar.

Chu Xinghe was completely unaware of Zheng Yu's sale of shares. At this moment, in the Grand Sky Sect, Chu Xinghe wore a serious expression.

He had initially planned to help Junior Sister Wan Lin and take the opportunity to deplete some sect resources.

But now things were spiraling out of control, turning into a full-blown conflict between the sect and the forces behind the Zhou Medical Hall.

The Great Elder had already ordered that even if it meant using all the sect's resources, they couldn't let the outside world say that Xinghe was misbehaving.

Honestly, when he heard this, Chu Xinghe was truly moved.

Don't worry, Great Elder!

I'm all in, Chu Xinghe won't back down. It's just a fight to the death with the Zhou Medical Hall. We have the advantage!

What? You ask why we have the advantage?

Even though I don't know how we'll win, even if we lose, we won't really lose!

If we do lose, the sect might suffer, but the Compass of Misfortune will surely spin wildly, and I'll break through on the spot to make amends to the sect!

But this time, Chu Xinghe really doesn't want to lose. Damn it, the sect is protecting me so wholeheartedly, I can't let the whole sect down. But as for the specific strategy, Chu Xinghe has no clue. However, he's not worried at all; Fortune Essence and Misfortune are bound to intervene, and my lucky stars will surely give the Zhou Medical Hall a huge surprise!
