From the experiences in the Infinite Sword Sect over the years, although there is strife in the sect, it is generally upward-moving.

Indeed.

Just as this thought settled.

A powerful aura descended from the sky, forcibly interrupting the confrontation between two Great Powers.

Two figures appeared, Vice Sect Leader Cang Wanhe respectfully followed behind a refined middle-aged man. Everyone bowed their heads in respect, even Supreme Elder Ziyang and Ye Qingtian bowed politely:

"Greetings, Sect Leader!"

Jiang Baichuan smiled and waved his hand, speaking gently:

"Both Supreme Elders are pillars of the Sword Sect, why hold grudges?"

Standing there, his aura was as elusive as clouds in the sky. He was once the top True Inheritor, born of the Jiang Family, and eventually seized the position of Sect Leader, leading to a period where the Jiang Family held significant power, suppressing the Ye Family.

Therefore, the Ye Family placed their hopes on Ye Chen, hoping he could secure the position of Sect Leader for the Ye Family in this generation.

Ye Qingtian snorted coldly:

"Sect Leader, please judge, should Ning Qi be punished for such actions?"

Before Ziyang could speak, Jiang Baichuan had already looked at Ning Qi, with a hint of surprise in his eyes, he smiled and said:

"You truly live up to being the Immortal Species designated by Supreme Elder Ziyang, indeed extraordinary. I was far inferior in my time; given time, you will surely elevate the Sword Sect to new heights."

Upon hearing such praise.

Ye Qingtian's face froze, while the words Ziyang was about to utter were retracted, with a smile on his face, the inclination became very obvious.

Ning Qi respectfully said:

"Sect Leader praises me too much, it was merely luck."

Jiang Baichuan shook his head with a smile, then said:

"In my opinion as Sect Leader, why not let this matter go? After all, it was Ye Chen who was at fault first. Without challenges, one cannot grow. Ye Chen is extraordinarily talented and will surely become a great figure in the future. This experience may not necessarily be a bad thing, as they are all geniuses of the sect, they may have to fight side by side one day, there's no need for this."

He mentioned nothing about the two Spirit Swords, instantly making Ye Qingtian and Ye Chen look extremely upset.

Jiang Baichuan is indeed the Sect Leader of the Infinite Sword Sect, but he is also a member of the Jiang Family. While maintaining a certain degree of fairness, he is more willing to seek benefits for the Jiang Family.

Suppressing the Ye Family undoubtedly aligns with the interests of the Jiang Family, and this was quite a good opportunity. The rise of Ye Chen had always made the Jiang Family somewhat apprehensive. If Ye Chen succeeded in taking the position of Sect Leader, the Ye Family would have a remarkable leap, but now, with Ning Qi's unexpected rise suppressing Ye Chen, the Ye Family's hopes were dashed.

He preferred the Sect Leader faction to take control over the Ye Family seizing the position.

Of course, he also couldn't let the Sect Leader faction become too comfortable.

Everyone's expressions were varied.

Ziyang and Ning Qi naturally had no objections, Ziyang clasped his hands with a smile:

"We heed the Sect Leader's instructions."

Ye Chen finally adjusted his mindset and couldn't help but step forward:

"Sect Leader, this matter arose because our Sword Sect's True Inheritor, Junior Brother Wei Feng, was killed by Ning Qi. I acted out of agony. According to our sect rules, while disputes are permissible, True Inheritors are forbidden from killing each other; violations lead to either the abolition of one's spiritual cultivation or the destruction of the Primordial Spirit!"

He clenched his fist and roared quietly, his gaze at Ning Qi flickered with both resentment and fear, and he bluntly dragged Jiang Qingxue into it.

"I dare swear by the Heavenly Dao, this is true, and Junior Sister Jiang Qingxue should know something about it, as Junior Brother Jiang Xuan also fell at Ning Qi's hands!"

The words fell.

The scene was silent.

The rule forbidding True Inheritors to kill each other is an unbreakable law. If such matters are handled privately that's one thing, but if brought to light, it must be taken seriously, or else, morale will collapse and the sect's fall is not far off.

Jiang Qingxue's scalp tingled, inwardly cursing Ye Chen for dragging her down.

Seeing Jiang Baichuan and the other Great Powers' gazes, she didn't dare lie and could only speak in a low, vague voice:

"I was on good terms with Junior Brother Jiang Xuan, he had entrusted me with his Soul Lamp, joining Five Elements Peak. Some time ago, Junior Brother Jiang Xuan's Soul Lamp extinguished."

Everyone instantly understood.

Wasn't this just about placing Jiang Xuan in Five Elements Peak?

However, this kind of thing does not look good on the surface anyway, so Jiang Qingxue altered her version, but the numerous experienced Great Powers present couldn't fail to see through these little tricks.

The gaze of the many Great Powers looked towards Ning Qi:

"Is this true?"

Pressure immediately soared, and the disciples behind Ning Qi from Five Elements Peak were all extremely nervous.

But Ning Qi had already prepared his response, he replied calmly:

"To the Sect Leader and all Supreme Elders, this disciple accidentally gained fortuitous opportunity and learned that a small world with budding wisdom appeared in the Immortal Cultivation Realm of Chu Kingdom, so I led the disciples of Five Elements Peak there. Unexpectedly, the small world was peculiar, with many natives capable of exerting Primordial Spirit Realm power."

"I put forth all my strength to seize it, but as for Junior Brother Wei Feng and Junior Brother Jiang Xuan, they unfortunately perished."

"I would never dare slaughter my kin, please Sect Leader discern clearly!"

Everyone's expressions grew more astonished.

A small world containing Primordial Spirit Realm power, that was incredibly rare.

Ye Chen was furious:

"Ning Qi, you have a lot of nerve, how dare you deceive the Sect Leader! Why is it that so many disciples of Five Elements Peak survived, yet Junior Brother Wei Feng and Junior Brother Jiang Xuan died, and… as far as I know, the twelve sect cultivators of the Chu Kingdom's Immortal Cultivation Realm who went with you were completely annihilated!"

He sneered coldly, continuing:

"Are you deliberately hiding something to cover your crimes?"

The many Great Powers' gazes bore even more investigatory intent, with several gazes even rising in intrigue.

This small world was indeed peculiar, capable of driving Ning Qi to such lengths to kill so many cultivators. It was likely harboring a remarkable opportunity, potentially one that could achieve the Integration Realm power, perhaps even directly reaching the Harmonization Realm!

As for further than that, they dared not think, as it was just a small world after all.

But even so, it was enough to captivate them, without Jiang Baichuan's presence, questions might have already begun, causing Ziyang's heart to sink, silently shielding Ning Qi from those probing gazes.

Jiang Baichuan's gaze was calm but contained great authority:

"Ning Qi, how do you explain?"

Ning Qi bowed slightly:

"Sect Leader, please see."

He waved his hand, and a white Profound Crystal flew out, it was the Shadow-shooting Spirit Crystal, capable of recording everything that happened, with even Great Powers unable to modify its contents.

Ye Chen's complexion shifted, and then he saw a vast war scene projected.

In the images.

Ning Qi led the charge, with all the Infinite Sword Sect disciples following by his side. Behind them were numerous True Monarchs of the Primordial Spirit Realm, along with a hundred thousand cultivators of the Twelve Sects. However, the enemies opposite were equally daunting, each with formidable auras, unlike typical natives of a small world, imbued with unknown powers, exuding black qi, resembling demons.

Everyone present felt a bit startled.

Even the numerous Great Powers had a trace of curiosity in their eyes, racking their brains for any race bearing resemblance.

Ning Qi chuckled inwardly.

This was, of course, something he had prepared long ago. Having achieved Perfection in the Realm Lord Realm, recreating such a war scene was indeed all too easy, a simple demonstration of Realm Power. In the projection.

Mountain and Sea Realm cultivators kept falling, as well as native entities of the small world.

Suddenly, a powerful confrontation erupted.

A bitter fight unfolded, with Ning Qi striving to protect the many Sword Sect disciples. Nevertheless, Wei Feng and Jiang Xuan together with a few other Sword Sect disciples were battered down.

As a matter of course, those disciples were engulfed by the enemy tide, reduced to dust.

Ning Qi solemnly bowed slightly:

"That is the truth of what transpired. For the deaths of Junior Brother Wei Feng and Junior Brother Jiang Xuan, I am truly heartbroken."
