Starting With A Reward Of 100 Million Lives - Chapter 27

Chapter 27 Wholeheartedly Seeking Peace

The Three-eyed Tiger thought for a moment and realized that it did not seem like it had anything to threaten this kid with.

As the target of the summoning talisman, it could not harm Jiang Cheng.

Thus, these vicious words did not hold any weight, which made it even more angry.

However, Jiang Cheng was also a very ‘considerate’ person.

“Big brother, if you think it’s too troublesome to travel back, you can absolutely stay here with us!”

“Let me introduce our sect to you. Over there, the mountains and rivers are beautiful, and the people there are outstanding. Everyone is very hospitable and friendly!”

“This way, you won’t have to go through the hardships of traveling all the way back. Why not consider it?”

The Three-eyed Tiger was almost angered to the point of having its lungs explode. It roared angrily.

“Don’t make me angry!”

How could it not know what Jiang Cheng’s intentions were?

This kid was audacious. It was one thing for it to work for him once, but he still wanted Lord Tiger to stay back and work for him for free for a long time?

That was simply a pipe dream!

Were it not for the fact that it could not harm its summoner, it would have definitely educated Jiang Cheng on how many miserable words it took to spell the word ‘death’!

Seeing it fly away in a hurry like it was escaping, brother Cheng was very melancholic; just like a scumbag who had been mercilessly rejected by a goddess.

“Sigh, my heart was originally inclined toward the bright moon, but the bright moon shone over the ditch!”

“Such a hot and passionate heart has really been broken. I can only use spirit stones and spiritual pills to soothe my pain.”

After all, the Dark Ice sect was also a sect with thousands of members. Its stockpile of resources and treasures was very rich, and not much worse than that of the Extreme Moon sect.

It also had a spiritual vein.

After busying himself for more than half a day looting all of the valuable things here, he decisively chose to exchange them all for points.

His points balance quickly reached 5800 points. From the looks of it, it was not difficult to level up.

Brother Cheng was satisfied and flew up to the clouds.

It was only after he had left for about four hours that some rogue cultivators who wanted to pick up scraps entered the place one after the other.

Naturally, they could not find a single thing except for some broken stones and bricks.

Jiang Cheng was a human-shaped excavation machine that deserved his reputation.

More than 10,000 rogue cultivators wanted to cry, but had no tears to do so. They once again cursed the big boss who had destroyed the Dark Ice sect.

Too ruthless! This was against the rules of the cultivation world!

Logically speaking, the big shot should have been in a good mood after destroying a sect and reaping a bountiful harvest, right?

Should that big shot not have given out some red packets so that everyone could participate in such a ‘joyous’ occasion?

Jiang Cheng, who was flying high in the sky, felt a chill run down his back. It was as if countless people were cursing him.

Brother Cheng ran his fingers over his handsome face, after which he felt a little depressed.

“Forget it. After all, a tree that stands out in the forest will be destroyed by the wind. It’s normal for people to be jealous and hate me if I’m too handsome.”

When he arrived at the Five Thunder sect, they were also prepared as if they were facing a great enemy.

He had not used the teleportation skill on the way there either, and it had taken him another four hours to fly there.

The people from the Five Thunder sect had already learned about the Dark Ice sect’s destruction from voice transmission and image projection talismans, so how could they not take this sect-destroying threat seriously?

“Jiang Cheng, don’t go too far!”

Huangfu Zidian, the sect master of the Five Thunder Sect, had a fierce appearance, but a weak heart. Even though his words were full of power, all he could muster were empty threats.

“Destroying two sects in one day… isn’t that too cruel?”

As soon as he finished speaking, the crowd turned furious.

“Sect master, why are you talking nonsense with him? He is a devil in disguise!”

“Jiang Cheng, your evil deeds will be punished!”

“Everyone must kill you!”

“Why don’t you just die?!”

Some people’s spittle flew out over ten meters with the help of their spiritual qi. If Jiang Cheng had not been standing far away, he would have been drenched in saliva.

Their logic was that if he attacked them and destroyed their sect, then he was a devil. As for that time when they destroyed the Flying Immortal sect…

Ugh..

That was just a trivial matter that was not worth mentioning.

Anyway, the main thing was, it was your fault and not ours.

When Huangfu Zidian heard his disciples’ impassioned and furious curses, he was so angry that his liver hurt.

What a bunch of pig-like teammates. Even though Jiang Cheng was only at the sixth level of the soul division realm, and much weaker than his own ninth-level soul division realm cultivation, it was a fact that those two sects had been annihilated.

What terrified him the most was that the Dark Ice sect had not been able to escape the same fate even though they had activated their sect-guarding formation.

He did not even need to guess to know that Jiang Cheng definitely had a great killer weapon up his sleeve.

Once the battle started, the outcome of the Five Thunder sect would not be any different from the other two sects.

He did not want to die.

Therefore, he actually wanted to butter up the person here and have a good talk with Jiang Cheng.

To put it bluntly, he wanted to sue for peace.

The Five Thunder sect had destroyed the Flying Immortal sect along with the other three sects. Although he had personally stabbed four elders of the Flying Immortal sect to death, and also snatched away nine storage rings’ worth of valuable resources in the end, with his glib tongue that could turn black to white, it would not be impossible for him to fool this kid and turn the situation around.

In the end though, all these sect members seemed to be on stimulants and began to curse Jiang Cheng’s ancestors.

Come on now, we were the ones who destroyed their sect first. Did you have to behave so self-righteously?

What was there to talk about at this rate?

“It seems that your people really want me to die. Since that’s the case, come and kill me!”

Brother Cheng was not angry at all about being cursed to die. He even hoped that they would kill him more forcefully.

“No, no, no…” Huangfu Zidian immediately smiled apologetically. At the same time, he turned around and reprimanded his disciples.

“I order you all to stay silent!”

“Sect master Jiang, I understand that you want to take revenge for the Flying Immortal sect but, as the saying goes, it’s better to resolve a conflict rather than form an eternal feud.”

“Regarding our small conflict with the Flying Immortal sect, why not let bygones be bygones?”

“What do you think about making more friends?”

His words stunned Jiang Cheng.

Hey, hey, buddy! The Flying Immortal sect was wiped out, and you’re treating this as a small conflict?

Moreover, it had only been a few days since the sect’s destruction. Was it not a little too soon for you to be talking about letting bygones be bygones?

Huangfu Zidian kept up his spiel.

“You’re not a disciple of the Flying Immortal sect, but an outsider, right?”

“Their enmity has nothing to do with you. They’re just looking for an excuse to start a war, you know?”

“How about this? From this day on, our Five Thunder sect will submit to your Flying Immortal sect.”

“This way, we’ll be brothers forever. We’re willing to become pawns in the Flying Immortal sect’s conquest of Qinglan Prefecture…”

He was quite the wishful thinker.

In any case, whether they were tied to the Crimson Sun sect or to the Flying Immortal sect, there was no difference. They just needed a strong force to rely on.

If Jiang Cheng had really been sent by some other sects from outside Qinglan Prefecture with ulterior motives, he might really agree.

After all, those external powers really did not care about the Flying Immortal sect’s hatred. They only cared about furthering their own interests.

If they obtained the Five Thunder sect’s allegiance, it would align with their interests in conquering Qinglan Prefecture.

Unfortunately, Jiang Cheng’s situation differed from Huang Zidian’s imagination.

Jiang Cheng did not have the support of any upper-level families or sects, nor did he have the support of any sect masters or family heads. There were also no masterminds controlling his actions from behind the scenes.

Everything he did was based on his own heart.

“Your words are very pleasant to hear and seem to make some sense.”

Seeing that Jiang Cheng was indeed moved, Huangfu Zidian was overjoyed.

“Sect leader Jiang is indeed a person who knows right from wrong…”

Jiang Cheng waved his hand and chuckled.

“Since that’s the case, you should go underground and talk to the former sect master of the Flying Immortal sect and their elders.”

“If you can persuade them, I will agree to your request.”

Huangfu Zidian’s face changed, and his anger erupted.

Would he not have to die in order to persuade them?

“You… You were toying with me, damn it!”

The spiritual sword flew out, and Jiang Cheng directly launched an attack.
