Chapter 1216: Chapter 1216: The Interests of the Five Great Sects

Within Chongxu Sect.

In the quiet courtyard, Elder Xi Hu was leisurely sitting and sipping tea in his grey robes, listening to the reports from the disciple behind him.

The establishment of the Four Sacred Sect had indeed come to pass.

This filled him with anticipation for Ning Fan, as he knew what the Four Sacred Sect would face next.

The Five Great Sects would absolutely not allow such a sect to emerge suddenly.

The emergence of the Four Sacred Sect was bound to affect the interests of the Five Great Sects, and the situation was becoming increasingly intriguing.

"Understood, you may leave now."

After the disciple left, Elder Xi Hu sighed.

"Ning Potian, you truly have an extraordinary son!"

News of the establishment of the Four Sacred Sect swiftly spread across this world, shocking many.

Before long, people began visiting the Four Sacred Sect, which was accepting them one by one.

During this time, Ning Fan was constantly having people search for materials to repair the array spirit, with only a few types now missing.

Once the array spirit was restored, the entire Four Sacred Sect would have a Sect Protection Array, greatly reducing the threat from the Five Great Sects.

Three months had passed since the establishment of the Four Sacred Sect, and it had already gained widespread fame, with the number of disciples within the sect astonishingly increasing.

Standing atop the roof, Ning Fan gazed into the distant sky, his heart filled with myriad emotions.

Now that the name of the Four Sacred Sect was known to all, it was time for him to reveal his identity.

However, the prerequisite was to annihilate a sect, only then could his name resound through the Five Great Sects, making them aware.

The Flying Immortal Sect was naturally his best option.

As one of the Five Great Sects, there were surely Pseudo-Dan Realm powerhouses among them.

Hence, he needed to break through to the Pseudo-Dan Realm.

Another two days passed, and the tranquility of the Four Sacred Sect was shattered on this day.

Ning Fan was still cultivating in his room, his realm at the Foundation Establishment Peak now completely stabilized.

Suddenly, a voice came from outside the door.

"Sect Master, there is trouble at the sect."

These words interrupted Ning Fan’s cultivation, forcing him to halt and take the mask from under his pillow and put it on his face before stepping out of the room.

His hands clasped behind his back, his expression stern.

"What has happened?"

"Disciples who had gone out for training have been hunted and slain, nearly a hundred dead and wounded."

Ning Fan’s eyes turned ice-cold under his mask, as did his expression.

Inside the sect, the grand hall for discussing matters.

All the Hall Masters were already gathered here, each with anger in their gaze.

With Ning Fan’s arrival, the grand hall immediately fell silent, all eyes landing on the Sect Master.

Taking his seat deliberately at the head of the hall, Ning Fan surveyed everyone present.

"What exactly happened?"

Vice Sect Master Zhuang Peng was the first to speak.

"Sect Master, my White Tiger Hall was the first to discover that disciples had been assassinated, all were out on training, and it is clear that the assailants were targeting our Four Sacred Sect."

The other Hall Masters also nodded in agreement.

This led Ning Fan to realize that someone from the Five Great Sects had made a move, but it was crucial to determine which of the sects was responsible.

After all, the Four Sacred Sect was not yet strong enough to confront all the Five Great Sects at once.

"Have you figured out which sect it was?"

Faced with helpless expressions, everyone fell silent.

"Continue the investigation, ensure the deceased disciples’ families are properly taken care of, and recall all disciples who are out training back to the sect as soon as possible."

The crowd nodded in agreement and prepared to carry out the tasks.

The elders left, leaving behind only the four Hall Masters.

"You’re suspecting the Flying Immortal Sect, right?"

Ning Fan got straight to the point.

The four of them nodded; their suspicion had indeed fallen on the Flying Immortal Sect when they received the news.

But without any evidence, they could only speculate.

"My thoughts align with yours; I too suspect the Flying Immortal Sect."

"However, we cannot act against the Flying Immortal Sect based purely on conjecture; we still need evidence."

On how to lure out the true perpetrator behind the scenes.

"Sect Master, if we withdraw the training disciples, how would the person behind this reveal themselves?"

Ning Fan smiled under his mask and said directly, "Don’t forget, in the eyes of those from the Flying Immortal Sect, they are unaware of Tian Wen’s fate, so we can use this news about Tian Wen to provoke the Flying Immortal Sect into action."

Vice Sect Master Zhuang Peng furrowed his brow, voicing his worry.

"This plan seems promising, but wouldn’t it mean going to war with them? And considering our current situation in the Four Sacred Sect, I fear we’re not yet capable of waging war against the Five Great Sects."

Facing Zhuang Peng’s words, Ning Fan shook his head in disagreement.

"You’re mistaken; the Four Sacred Sect has developed over the past few months to the point where we are fully capable of challenging one sect. As it appears now, the people of the Five Great Sects are not joining forces."

Otherwise, the Four Sacred Sect would have been destroyed by now.

And their current suspicion fell on the Flying Immortal Sect.

"What’s most important is that the Flying Immortal Sect is currently unlikely to directly engage in war with the Four Sacred Sect."

Such words finally gained the approval of the few Hall Masters.

Soon after, news that Tian Wen was still alive inadvertently slipped out from a disciple of the Four Sacred Sect.

And this piece of news quickly made its way into the Flying Immortal Sect.

"Tian Wen is still alive?"

Zhai Yonghui, the Sect Master, expressed his shock before turning to face the Elder who had come to report the news.
