27: Chapter 27 New side quest, resist the siege of the Hundred Sects and fight back for revenge!
Jiang Xiaobai's words were very domineering, and the Disciples of Qingyun Sect were invigorated after hearing him.
Even more, a Disciple shouted:
"Over a hundred of your forces sent spies to infiltrate our Qingyun Sect, and today you still have the nerve to criticize us here. Little Martial Uncle has already been very merciful by letting you exchange your people for Spirit Stones."
As soon as this Disciple spoke, it immediately incited the counterattack of the other Disciples of Qingyun Sect, who angrily cursed those forces:
"Exactly! A bunch of shameless guys, how can their skin be so thick that they can say such things?"
"Exchange them for Spirit Stones, or we'll tear up the tickets!"
The words of the Qingyun Sect Disciples made the people of those forces' faces turn ashen, and their Killing Intent boiled.
"Jiang Xiaobai, we are too lazy to argue with you. We'll give you one chance now: release our people immediately, or we will flatten the entire Qingyun Sect."
As soon as these words were uttered, both sides immediately became confrontational, but Jiang Xiaobai remained silent at this moment.
Because the System's voice rang out again:
"Ding! The System has detected over a hundred enemy forces attempting to kill the Host and destroy Qingyun Sect."
"The Host can tolerate it, but the System cannot! Please, Host, resist their attacks during the upcoming Hundred Sects' siege on Qingyun Sect, and find every possible way to counterattack and retaliate against them."
"The Host will receive generous rewards upon completing the side mission."
After listening to the System's words, Jiang Xiaobai smiled at the corner of his mouth:
"The best counterattack and retaliation is to destroy them."
Jiang Xiaobai looked at those forces and said:
"Are you truly unwilling to exchange Spirit Stones for your people?"
After Jiang Xiaobai's words, all the people from the hundred-plus forces chose to remain silent. Seeing that they couldn't threaten Jiang Xiaobai, someone stepped forward and said:
"Jiang Xiaobai, are you really not afraid of death? Are you really not afraid that we will join forces to destroy your Qingyun Sect?"
"If I were afraid of you, would you not kill me? If I were afraid of you, would you not destroy our Qingyun Sect?" Jiang Xiaobai retorted, leaving that person speechless.
At this moment, another person stepped forward and said:
"Jiang Xiaobai, as long as you release our people and compensate each of our forces with one million Top-Grade Spirit Stones, then we will spare you and Qingyun Sect."
"Otherwise, do you think you and Qingyun Sect can withstand our attacks?"
Jiang Xiaobai was clearly out of patience. He looked at the people from those forces and said:
"I'm too lazy to bicker with you. I'll give you one more chance: either exchange them for Spirit Stones, or I'll kill them, then go destroy you all, and I'll still get your Spirit Stones."
As soon as these words were uttered, the scene immediately erupted, and everyone angrily pointed and cursed Jiang Xiaobai.
"Damn it, Jiang Xiaobai is too arrogant! He actually doesn't put so many of our forces in his eyes."
"Exactly, Jiang Xiaobai is so young, yet he doesn't regard us. If he develops for a while longer, he might really make a move against us."
"Since we can't negotiate, what should we do next? Are we really going to let Jiang Xiaobai kill our people?"
"I have a plan, I wonder what everyone thinks?"
"Li Shen, just say it."
Li Shen narrowed his eyes, looked at the crowd, then turned his gaze to Jiang Xiaobai, and softly said:
"We can give him the Spirit Stones first. Once we rescue our people, we'll all act together to eliminate Jiang Xiaobai, destroy Qingyun Sect, and cut the grass by the roots!"
As soon as Li Shen said this, everyone nodded in agreement and said:
"Li Shen's plan is brilliant, let's do it!"
"I agree too, but should we report this to the higher-ups first?"
"No need. It won't be too late to report to the Sect after we destroy Qingyun Sect, kill Jiang Xiaobai, and divide Qingyun Sect's treasure vault."
"Exactly, the Sect will surely reward us then."
After discussion, the hundred-plus forces unanimously agreed to exchange Spirit Stones for people first.
Just then, Li Shen stepped forward and said to Jiang Xiaobai:
"Jiang Xiaobai, we agree to exchange Spirit Stones for our people, but you must release them first."
Jiang Xiaobai's gaze turned cold as he looked at Li Shen and cursed:
"Idiot! If you have no intelligence, don't come forward and babble, you're wasting my time."
"Jiang Xiaobai, you..." Li Shen was quite angered, but he still held back and said again:
"Jiang Xiaobai, how can you guarantee to us that you won't go back on your word after we give you the Spirit Stones?"
Jiang Xiaobai heard this and laughed:
"I can swear an oath to the Heavenly Dao. If I take your Spirit Stones and still don't release your people, then may I die a horrible death."
Hearing Jiang Xiaobai swear an oath to the Heavenly Dao, the people from the hundred-plus forces all looked at each other.
"Good, Jiang Xiaobai, we respect you as a man. Here are one billion Low-Grade Spirit Stones, which our hundred-plus forces are using to exchange for our people. Please check them."
Li Shen threw a spatial ring in his hand to Jiang Xiaobai. After taking the spatial ring and checking it, Jiang Xiaobai's expression became excited.
"Good heavens, over a hundred forces, five million Low-Grade Spirit Stones from each force, that's almost one billion Low-Grade Spirit Stones!"
"If only..."
At this point, Jiang Xiaobai's gaze immediately fell upon the people from those forces, his eyes gleaming.
"Jiang Xiaobai, the Spirit Stones have been given to you. Where are our people? Hand them over quickly!"
Jiang Xiaobai did not immediately reply to Li Shen's words. Instead, he looked at Wang Dadan and said:
"Fatty, from now on, you will be in charge of Qingyun Sect's finances."
"You also pick a hundred Disciples to follow you. From now on, you will be the Elder in charge of resources for our Qingyun Sect."
"Find a place in Qingyun Sect to build a treasure pavilion, specifically for collecting Qingyun Sect's treasures. From now on, you will manage the Sect's income and expenses."
Wang Dadan was utterly shocked; Jiang Xiaobai's words left him momentarily stunned.
"What are you still standing there for? You don't want to do it, do you?"
Wang Dadan, who had come to his senses, first nodded, then shook his head.
"Martial Uncle Jiang, I guarantee to complete the mission!"
"Hmm, very good. From now on, everyone can receive a hundred Low-Grade Spirit Stones each month for Cultivation."
"Yes, Martial Uncle Jiang."
Wang Dadan was extremely excited. After taking the spatial ring from Jiang Xiaobai's hand, he immediately scurried towards the Disciples of Qingyun Sect.
Jiang Xiaobai no longer paid attention to Wang Dadan, directly turning his gaze to the people from those forces.
At this moment, the people from those forces were staring at Jiang Xiaobai with gloomy expressions.
"Jiang Xiaobai, quickly release our people."
Seeing Li Shen's angry look, Jiang Xiaobai quirked a corner of his mouth and smiled:
"What's the rush? Are you rushing to reincarnate?"
"Jiang Xiaobai, you'd better not go back on your word, or you will die a very miserable death."
Jiang Xiaobai quietly watched Li Shen for a moment, then looked at the Disciples of Qingyun Sect and said:
"Bring out those hundred-plus people. We can't neglect them."
"Yes, Little Martial Uncle."
A moment later, the hundred-plus people from the hundred-plus forces were brought to Jiang Xiaobai's side.
Seeing that their people's Cultivation had already been crippled, they all became enraged.
"Jiang Xiaobai, you just promised us that you wouldn't harm our people! You actually went back on your word, violating your Heavenly Dao oath! You deserve to die!"
"When did I violate my Heavenly Dao oath? I had already crippled their Cultivation before I swore the oath, you know."
"How about it, everyone? Aren't you surprised? Isn't this unexpected?"
