The "Three Immortals Grand Ceremony," with its "Inter-Sect Challenge" segment, had positioned the three "Ancient Arenas" in close proximity.
The location of the "Fangzhang Sword Sect's" "Ancient Arena" offered a clear view of the events unfolding at the "Yingzhou Sword Sect."
The content displayed by the three "Mirage Pearls," evoked by the "Mirage Pearls," was perfectly discernible to everyone at the "Fangzhang Sword Sect."
Especially "Daoist Buzun," despite his advanced age, possessed sharp ears and keen eyes, with extraordinary vision and hearing!
Regarding "Quasi-Sage Son Ni Hong's" mockery of him as an "old dog," and the fact that other "Grand Elders" were worth "three to five million low-grade spirit stones" to buy over, only he, "Daoist Buzun," was not worth a million, only fifty thousand!
He was furious!
"Daoist Buzun" was truly enraged!
This was outrageous, an act of extreme bullying!
His old face flushed to the color of a pig's liver, and even his narrow, triangular eyes were wide open, emitting flames of fury.
"Ni Hong, you little whelp, I'll...!"
The words that followed were too venomous to articulate.
In short, "Daoist Buzun," at his age of over three thousand years, solemnly swore to engage in improper relations with all eighteen generations of female ancestors of "Ni Hong Quasi-Sage Son," and not just once, but a full three thousand times!
Tsk, tsk, tsk…
Old but vigorous!
Of course, "Daoist Buzun" was not the only one shouting threats and vows of vengeance at "Ni Hong Quasi-Sage Son."
The content recorded by the three "Mirage Pearls" was too explosive, too sensational!
One segment showed "Ni Hong Quasi-Sage Son" discussing how to deal with the "Three Quasi-Saintesses."
According to the rules of the "Inter-Sect Challenge," merely defeating the opponent sect's "Quasi-Saintesses" was not enough; their acknowledgment was also required.
Under normal circumstances, the "Quasi-Saintesses" of the "Penglai Sword Sect" and the "Fangzhang Sword Sect" would certainly not acknowledge "Ni Hong Quasi-Sage Son."
"Ni Hong Quasi-Sage Son" simultaneously arranged for people to approach "Fairy Lan Fang" and "Fairy Hao Cai" in an attempt to bribe them.
This move was not very successful.
The reaction from "Fairy Lan Fang" was lukewarm; she neither agreed nor refused.
"Fairy Hao Cai," however, strongly opposed it.
But it didn't matter. "Ni Hong Quasi-Sage Son" had never truly expected to succeed in bribing the two "Quasi-Saintesses"; he had a "trump card."
The Innate Harmonious Union Pill!
"Ni Hong Quasi-Sage Son" sought out "Qian Duoduo," requesting that "Qian Duoduo" provide three "Innate Harmonious Union Pills."
The "Innate Harmonious Union Pill" was a valuable item, an "Innate Elixir" with potent and fierce medicinal effects, incredibly powerful.
Once this pill was consumed, "yin and yang union" had to be completed as soon as possible, or one would explode and die.
...
Everyone cursed "Ni Hong Quasi-Sage Son" for his shamelessness, utterly shameless!
He actually intended to use the "Innate Harmonious Union Pill" to subdue the "Quasi-Saintesses" of the "Penglai Sword Sect" and the "Fangzhang Sword Sect." How vulgar, how despicable, how utterly shameless!
Especially the young male disciples of the "Fangzhang Sword Sect" and the "Penglai Sword Sect," they gritted their teeth, their eyes burning with a rage that almost manifested physically.
The two "Quasi-Saintesses," whom they revered as goddesses, were almost defiled by "Ni Hong Quasi-Sage Son" through such a卑鄙 (bēibǐ - despicable) method!
"Ni Hong Quasi-Sage Son" had originally planned to make his move that very night.
This was because after all the competitions of the "Three Immortals Grand Ceremony" concluded today, tomorrow would be the day for the "Quasi-Saintesses" to declare their stance and make their choices.
If he could subdue the "Quasi-Saintesses" tonight, he could realize his wish tomorrow and become the "Co-Lord of the Three Immortals"!
Damn it!
This is unbearable!
In an instant, "Ni Hong Quasi-Sage Son" incurred the wrath of the public, and everyone shouted threats and vows of vengeance against him.
The enraged cultivators of the "Penglai Sword Sect" and the "Fangzhang Sword Sect" not only turned their attention to "Ni Hong Quasi-Sage Son" but also extended their fury to the "Yingzhou Sword Sect."
"Bah, shameless!"
"The Yingzhou Sword Sect nurturing a degenerate like Ni Hong is truly a den of filth and disgrace, unworthy of being called one of the Three Immortal Sword Sects!"
"Yingzhou Sword Sect, trash, degenerate!"
...
Listening to the continuous stream of curses, "True Lord Tianzhao's" face turned dark, so dark it seemed water would drip from it.
His gaze, as cold as a knife, shifted to "Fairy Wukong" behind him.
It was precisely "Fairy Wukong" who had acted earlier, prematurely triggering the three "Mirage Pearls," thus depriving "True Lord Tianzhao" of the opportunity to destroy the incriminating evidence.
Betrayal!
This was naked betrayal!
"True Lord Tianzhao" was burning with rage, and just as he was about to severely punish "Fairy Wukong," he unexpectedly heard "Fairy Wukong's" voice, laced with infinite anger, cold as ice.
"Ni Hong, even if you intended to scheme against Fairy Hao Cai and Fairy Lan Fang, you would only need at most two Innate Harmonious Union Pills. Why did you prepare three? Who was the third Innate Harmonious Union Pill intended for?"
Upon these words, the "Yingzhou Sword Sect" also exploded.
What the heck!
That's right, "Fairy Hao Cai" and "Fairy Lan Fang" were only two people. Why did "Ni Hong Quasi-Sage Son" need to prepare three "Innate Harmonious Union Pills"? Who was the third "Innate Harmonious Union Pill for?"
No one here was a fool. With a little thought, they all understood.
The third "Innate Harmonious Union Pill" was definitely meant for "Fairy Wukong!"
What the heck!
Shameless, despicable, vulgar!
The intention of "Ni Hong Quasi-Sage Son" to drug "Fairy Hao Cai" and "Fairy Lan Fang" could still be vaguely explained as ambition, intending to control the "Penglai Sword Sect" and the "Fangzhang Sword Sect" through this means.
However, the intention of "Ni Hong Quasi-Sage Son" to drug "Fairy Wukong" left no room for explanation.
Was he planning to use the drug on "Fairy Wukong" to control the "Yingzhou Sword Sect?"
Nonsense!
The future sect master of the "Yingzhou Sword Sect" was already set to be "Ni Hong Quasi-Sage Son."
The entire "Yingzhou Sword Sect" was essentially within "Ni Hong Quasi-Sage Son's" grasp, so he had no need to drug "Fairy Wukong."
The fact that "Ni Hong Quasi-Sage Son" intended to do so now had only one reason: this shameless fellow desired the ultimate pleasure of a "group indulgence."
Upon this realization, the cultivators of the "Yingzhou Sword Sect" became furious.
They unexpectedly found themselves standing shoulder-to-shoulder with the cultivators of the "Penglai Sword Sect" and the "Fangzhang Sword Sect."
"Ni Hong, you filthy scoundrel, I'll castrate you!"
"Ni Hong, come here, I promise not to beat you to death!"
"Kill Ni Hong, protect the Saintesses!"
...
The crowd was incensed, their anger surging like a tide!
The cultivators of the "Three Immortal Sword Sects" had never been so united. At this moment, they set aside all their disputes and differences, united in their shared hatred, and directed it outward, relentlessly condemning "Ni Hong Quasi-Sage Son."
"Ni Hong Quasi-Sage Son" and his few accomplices initially tried to argue, but they were quickly drowned in a torrent of curses, thoroughly berated.
