Chapter 381 - Upholding Justice
Even long after Fang Qi had left, the two still couldn’t calm down.
The man’s name was Li Longyuan, the eldest direct disciple of Xuanzhong Manor. “What do you think of the power of that spiritual spell as compared to those recorded in the ancient documents?”
The woman, Ling Wanyin, was the eldest direct disciple of Yuxu Mountain. She said in surprise, “You mean… No, we’ve never heard of it before… besides, the teleportation array had been sealed long ago; how could he have come to this continent?”
In the long history, only people of the Three Saint Gates shocked and dominated over others, not the other way around. Even if there were any people who had ever shocked and dominated the Three Saint Gates, they only existed in the secret scrolls of the various factions that recorded the incidents of the ancient times.
[New task: The Power that Shocks the World
Task Mission: 1. Rescue the players who are being tortured due to playing games in our shop; 2. Establish dominance (Completed)

Without the array drawing power from the heaven and the earth, the sky regained its clearness as the clouds and wind settled down.
However, in the clear blue sky, there seemed to be a pair of eyes that was watching the whole incident. This pair of eyes seemed to be there ever since the creation of the universe and hadn’t ever moved, but no one had ever noticed them.
When Fang Qi led the others out of the Taixi Faction, for some reason, he turned his head and looked at the distant sky.
However, he didn’t see anything extraordinary.
…
“The defeated factions must accept the reality and act like it.” The cultivators of the major factions and forces had thought that they would capture the emperor of Dajin, but now they were astonished to find that they had become prisoners; it was unimaginable.
Where are the cultivator troops?! Where are the battle reports?!
The old Daoist of Dragon Sea Daoist Palace was especially puzzled. After all, he had acquired his special communication jade from an ancient relic, and it was made of the top-quality ancient spiritual jade, which meant that even big arrays couldn’t affect the transmission of his messages.
“Kid Ji Wu, what do you want?” The fat Zhu Family Master roared in a fury, “Do you think that you can sit back and relax after killing us?”
Ji Wu tossed a list to him and said, “This is the list of costs that our Wuwei Daoist Alliance spent on the projects related to this war. If you have no objections, just sign your names on it. After your factions compensate all the damage that you caused to my country, I’ll release you guys for sure.”
“…”
“Despicable!”
“Shameless!”
Jade Hill Mountain Master looked at the long list and said, “Kid Ji Wu, this is blatant blackmail!”
Ji Wu ignored their shouts. Instead, he took out a heavy jade much bigger than the ordinary communication jade and injected a bit of warrior qi into it. “This is the communication jade that was newly developed by the Wuwei Daoist Alliance. By now, only a few seniors of the Wuwei Daoist Alliance have the right to use it.”
After the injection of warrior qi, he controlled the communication jade and created a virtual picture in the air above the jade.
“Different from your communication jade, this one can transmit pictures and videos besides messages.”
“Transmit what?!” They looked baffled, not knowing that there existed such a weird communication jade.
“This is a video that they just sent to me. You can watch it.”
In the video before them, young men and women had their limbs tied, and lightning energy got injected into their bodies by spiritual artifacts under the threats of the cultivators of Taixi Faction.
The shrill screams chilled the hearts of everyone present.
“What… What is this?!” They all looked horrified.
…
About one day later, the cultivators of Xuanzhong Manor and Yuxu Mountain, the two biggest forces in the cultivation world on the continent, gathered together.
“What… happened to the Taixi Faction?” An old Daoist wearing a purple robe asked in a trembling voice.
“It was severely damaged. Most of the high-level cultivators were killed, and their faction-guarding grand array was shattered. Even the spiritual essence in the spiritual vein underground was almost emptied. Even if they can recover from this disaster, they will be reduced to a third-tier faction. In short, it is ruined.” Li Longyuan answered.
“They… went too far!” A grey-robed old Daoist yelled, “No one had ever beaten our Three Saint Gate so hard for many years! I’ll go and avenge the Taixi Faction!”
“Elder Yan!” The Daoist sitting at the head of the table wore a white robe and a jade belt. With a whisk in his hand, he looked very dignified. He opened his mouth and said, “I know that you are close to the elders in the Taixi Faction, but this time, Duyou Holiness worked behind us and incited the big factions to suppress the… ugh…”
He glanced at a disciple beside him, and the latter whispered, “The Origins Internet Club.”
“Ah… the Origins Internet Club,” he continued, “We must consider this issue carefully.”
“Consider what?!” A red-robed elder yelled in a fury, “We still need to consider after someone razed the Taixi Faction to the ground? Should we wait until our own factions are destroyed?! I don’t agree!”
“Right! I don’t agree as well!”
“Faction Master, I don’t agree either!”
“We all don’t agree!”
“We must avenge the Taixi Faction!”
The elders were indignant since no one had ever dared to show any disrespect to these three factions for the last thousands of years. But today, one of the factions was almost razed to the ground!
It was outrageous!
The two Faction Masters looked at each other with bitter smiles on their faces.
“You… you can’t enter!” At this moment, a terrified voice came from the door.
“You…”
“Report!” Several disciples guarding the door came in with reluctance and reported, “The masters of the different factions are here… We can’t stop them anymore!”
With a large group of elders and elite disciples behind them, the masters of Jade Hill Mountain, Linglang Mountain, Dragon Sea Daoist Palace, and the other big factions came into the room with fierce expressions on their faces.
“Guys, what do you want?” The elders of Xuanzhong Manor and Yuxu Mountain stared at the intruders with cold eyes.
In a bright green robe, Jade Hill Mountain Master looked extremely gloomy with veins bulging on his forehead. “I seem to have heard someone say that they want to avenge the Taixi Faction?”
“Do you have any objections?” The red-robed elder looked at this group of people in disdain. In his mind, these people were useless and fought for small interests. Even if they gathered, they were nothing in his eyes.
However, this group of people was unified today; it was an unusual sight. Jade Hill Mountain Master waved his arm and yelled, “How dare you! Beat him for me!”
“Attack! My Linglang Mountain will throw caution out of the window! We trusted you Three Saint Gates so much, but you did such shameful things and treated us this way!”
“Beat him! Beat anyone who dares to avenge the Taixi Faction!”
Today, the useless factions in their eyes shared a mind, which dumbfounded even the masters of the two saint factions.
“What…What’s happening?!”
