Chapter 1101: Chapter 1101
"I’m clearly helping you! How could I be taking advantage of you?" Zhang Xiaohao said seriously.
"Hmph! Then tell me, what were you doing just now?" Gong Ningyue said angrily.
"Just now? I was detoxifying you! Otherwise, the True Qi in your body would take at least twenty-four hours to recover! During that time, you wouldn’t be able to move at all. What if something happened and you wet the bed? Wouldn’t that be shameful?" Zhang Xiaohao explained earnestly.
"You bastard!" Gong Ningyue said furiously.
"How am I a bastard? Didn’t you already see earlier?" Zhang Xiaohao said with a straight face.
"You, you, you..." Gong Ningyue was left speechless from anger.
Zhang Xiaohao embraced her soft, warm body and kissed her dominantly.
After a long while, the two finally parted.
"Stop messing around. Let me ask you, what exactly happened this time? How could a mere maid poison you?" Zhang Xiaohao asked seriously.
"Her name is Xiao He. She’s been with me for fifteen years. Sigh! I really never expected Xiao He to betray me and poison my food. Fortunately, I noticed something was wrong in time and activated the restrictions of the palace. Otherwise, the consequences would have been dire!" Gong Ningyue said, still frightened.
"The rebels have been dealt with! Now in the Tianyin Sect, from the Sect Master to the ordinary disciples, they’re all women. This should make management somewhat easier for you, don’t you think?" Zhang Xiaohao said.
"Thank you!" Gong Ningyue said seriously.
"Between us, there’s no need for thanks! So, what are your plans for the future?" Zhang Xiaohao asked earnestly.
"Evacuate!" Gong Ningyue said, word by word, looking reluctant.
"Do you already know?" Zhang Xiaohao asked.
"Yes! Although my Tianyin Sect has completely sealed the mountain, how could I not know about such major events happening in the Jianghu? I originally planned to pack up these couple of days and evacuate the entire sect! Who could have imagined that something would happen internally? If not for your timely arrival, the consequences would have been unimaginable!" Gong Ningyue said.
"Where do you plan to retreat to?" Zhang Xiaohao asked again.
"The Grand Mountains! There should be a place for Tianyin Sect there!" Gong Ningyue said earnestly.
"The Grand Mountains? It’s a good place, but too dangerous! The beasts in there are numerous. If you just go like that, I’m afraid within a week, most of the Tianyin Sect disciples would be dead or injured, if not more!" Zhang Xiaohao said seriously.
"Ah! Then where should we go now?" Gong Ningyue exclaimed.
"If you don’t mind, I actually know a good place. It’s remote enough and might be very suitable as the new sect site for your Tianyin Sect!" Zhang Xiaohao said after pondering.
"Really? Where is it?" Gong Ningyue asked excitedly. Follow current novᴇls on 𝘯𝘰𝘷𝘦𝘭⚑𝓯𝓲𝓻𝓮⚑𝕟𝕖𝕥
"Seven Mysterious Sect!" Zhang Xiaohao said.
"Seven Mysterious Sect? What is that place? Why have I never heard of it?" Gong Ningyue asked perplexed.
"The Seven Mysterious Sect was very powerful! Even stronger than your Tianyin Sect at its peak! But recently they provoked me, and I wiped them out entirely. The location is great, and nature’s spiritual energy is abundant, making it a very suitable place for your Tianyin Sect’s residence. However, last time when I took action, I went too hard and destroyed the Mountain Protection Array along with all the buildings!"
"If you want to establish a sect there, you’ll need to re-establish a Mountain Protection Array and build the Tianyin Sect’s palace and such. If you don’t want exposure, it’s best to do it yourself!" Zhang Xiaohao said.
"A Mountain Protection Array?" As long as we dismantle the one from our Tianyin Sect and re-arrange it, it’ll work! As for the palace, with our current number of around five hundred Martial Artists, we can build whatever palace we want!" Gong Ningyue said confidently.
"One thing to remind you! The environment there is indeed good, but it’s a bit far from Nanhua City, about six or seven days’ journey at full speed." Zhang Xiaohao reminded.
"I’ve decided, no matter how difficult, I’ll choose the Seven Mysterious Sect as the site of our Tianyin Sect’s new home!" Gong Ningyue said earnestly.
"Actually, there’s another spot in the Grand Mountains which is also good! But compared to the Seven Mysterious Sect, it’s not even close. Moreover, the beasts there are too numerous; if a few Cycle Palace Realm beasts emerge, your Tianyin Sect would truly be doomed!" Zhang Xiaohao said.
"Thank you! I’ve decided, we’ll choose the territory of the Seven Mysterious Sect as the new site for Tianyin Sect!" Gong Ningyue said.
"Alright! When do you plan to set out? I’ll draw the map for you." Zhang Xiaohao said.
"Hmm? Aren’t you coming with us? Don’t tell me you’re planning to abandon us after taking advantage?" Gong Ningyue raised her eyebrows in dissatisfaction and asked.
"Am I that kind of person? I have my reasons for staying. Enough questions," Zhang Xiaohao said firmly.
"Are you staying to deal with the Great Brightness Temple?" Gong Ningyue furrowed her brows and asked.
Zhang Xiaohao didn’t respond. He stood up and walked to the window, looking at the naturally beautiful scenery outside, and said calmly.
"The grievance between us will ultimately be resolved! Since they’ve come this time, I might as well settle it all at once!"
As he spoke, Zhang Xiaohao took out a panda, calmly puffing on it.
"Thank you for your hard work!" Gong Ningyue hugged Zhang Xiaohao’s waist from behind, burying her head in his back.
"I want to stay with you!" Gong Ningyue said seriously.
"Nonsense! I have my arrangements. How can it be appropriate for you to stay? Be good, stop fooling around, and take the Tianyin Sect’s people and leave now. Take the water route; it’s not safe on land. There are beast armies everywhere outside!" Zhang Xiaohao said sternly.
"If you stay, I’ll also stay!" Gong Ningyue said firmly.
"Just try it!" Zhang Xiaohao said with a stern face.
"Fine! I’ll take people and leave, but you must promise me not to confront those bald monks head-on! If you can’t win, you must retreat immediately!" Meeting Zhang Xiaohao’s cold gaze, Gong Ningyue conceded.
"Alright." Zhang Xiaohao nodded.
Taking out a pen and paper, he then drew up the route map for the Seven Mysterious Sect for them.
The map was detailed, marking what beasts were where and their strengths. It also included a safe route in addition to all this information.
