Chapter 596: Chapter 325: They Are All Spiritual Sources, Not a Single One Will Escape

He Que listened, his fists clenched tight. He wanted nothing more than to charge up there right now and kill this bunch of scum.

Zhuo Qingcheng was also astonished. She even suspected that the other party was exaggerating, as they couldn’t just believe a one-sided story. Even Han Meixue was stunned.

Jiang Man frowned. Staring at the dark-skinned man, he said slowly, "So, you got married very early?"

Hearing this, everyone froze. For a moment, they were a bit bewildered, wondering if he was focusing on the wrong thing.

It took the dark-skinned man quite a while to recover. "I got married at fifteen. I’m eighteen this year."

Jiang Man was shocked. "Then you already have kids?"

He Que was a little angry, feeling that the person in charge was completely missing the point. At a time like this, he still had the leisure to ask about such irrelevant matters. The longer they delayed, the more people would die.

The dark-skinned man was also surprised by Jiang Man’s questions. However, he still nodded, though he did not verbally reply.

"Getting married at such a young age, are you envious?" Jiang Man asked Zhuo Qingcheng and the others.

Han Meixue asked curiously, "Are you envious, Senior Brother?"

Jiang Man shook his head. "I’m not envious."

"Then we aren’t envious either," Han Meixue said.

Jiang Man looked at her. "I’m not envious because I took a wife at eighteen. Why aren’t you envious?"

Everyone was left speechless.

He Que immediately said, "Senior Brother Jiang, whatever you plan to do, please do it quickly. If we let this continue, who knows how many more people will die."

Jiang Man nodded. He then started walking, asking as he went, "What are your names?"

"Senior, you aren’t from the Sanhe Sect?" the middle-aged man asked.

"We never said we were from the Sanhe Sect," Han Meixue said.

"Then where are you from?" the middle-aged man asked warily.

Zhuo Qingcheng looked at Jiang Man. Seeing that he had no intention of hiding it, she said, "The Wuyun Sect. Have you heard of it?"

Hearing this, the middle-aged man’s pupils shrank. He asked in shock, "An Upper State Major Sect?" This was a Sect he had always heard of, a powerful Sect that existed in legends. It was the holy land they all yearned for. There was dense Spiritual Qi, powerful Cultivators, and abundant resources. Even an ordinary person from there was far beyond their comparison. He had even begun to think that this Sect didn’t actually exist.

"With your Cultivation base, it’s only a one- or two-month journey. There’s no need to be so surprised, is there?" Han Meixue said.

The middle-aged man shook his head. He simply didn’t know where that place was. Besides, there were too many dangers around, so he couldn’t even travel too far. This Sect was far too mysterious to them.

"What brings you Immortals here?" he immediately asked.

"Sect decree. We are here to subdue the Sanhe Sect and bring it under the jurisdiction of the Wuyun Sect," He Que said solemnly.

Hearing this, the middle-aged man froze, then said in panic, "Doesn’t that mean the higher-ups of the Sect will start working for the Major Sect? Doesn’t that mean they will have someone backing them? Then what about the people here..." He looked at Jiang Man and the others in horror. "Please reconsider, Immortals! Leave ordinary people a way to survive!"

Jiang Man didn’t explain. Instead, he led the group to walk around. Afterward, they left the city and headed to the surrounding villages.

In the villages, people lived beside the mountains and rivers, working at sunrise and resting at sunset. Children played and frolicked outside. It looked entirely like a paradise isolated from the world.

Jiang Man walked up to a young child and asked, "Are you happy?"

The little boy nodded heavily. "Happy."

"What are you happy about?" Jiang Man asked.

The little boy looked at Jiang Man. "I’m happy because life is good. It’s all because the Sect manages and protects us, so we can go outside and play freely. It used to be too dangerous, but it’s different with the Sect. They drove away the Demon Beasts and gave us peace."

Jiang Man asked curiously, "Is the Sanhe Sect really that amazing? Even our Wuyun Sect isn’t as amazing as them. When I was young, I was always worried about Demon Beast attacks when I went out."

"Yeah, Immortals are just that amazing," the little boy said with certainty.

Jiang Man looked at him and asked again, "Then does the Sanhe Sect let you practice Immortal Cultivation?"

"Only Immortals can practice Immortal Cultivation," the little boy said.

"Then if I let you practice Immortal Cultivation, would you think I’m a good person?" Jiang Man asked.

"Immortals are still better. They give us peaceful days, a safe environment, and let us have enough to eat and wear," the little boy replied.

Jiang Man nodded and let the boy leave. Then, he turned to look at the middle-aged man.

Along the way, Jiang Man had learned the man’s name. Cui Xiangyang, Early Stage of Golden Core. As for the couple, the husband was Chen Wu, and the wife was Chen Yan.

Cui Xiangyang looked at Jiang Man and said, "Immortal, it’s not like that."

Jiang Man paid no attention to this, instead asking an important question, "Do you know about Immortal Spirits?"

Cui Xiangyang paused for a moment. "I should have heard of them."

"Do you know the name of the Immortal Spirit?" Jiang Man asked.

Cui Xiangyang thought for a long time before answering uncertainly, "Three Rivers Immortal Spirit."

Jiang Man was somewhat surprised. Afterward, he communicated this to the Ling Hua Immortal Spirit through the ruined temple. He wanted to see if she knew anything about it.

"That’s about enough. Let’s go to the Sanhe Sect," Jiang Man said.

Cui Xiangyang wanted to say more, but he was interrupted by Zhuo Qingcheng. Instead, Chen Wu asked Jiang Man, "Can someone without a Spirit Root really not practice Immortal Cultivation?"

Jiang Man looked at him, revealing a meaningful smile. "You will know very soon."

After that, the group left via Sword Control.

In mid-air, Zhuo Qingcheng asked, "Senior Brother, who do you think is lying?"

"Does it matter?" Jiang Man asked in return. Pausing for a moment, he continued, "It doesn’t conflict with our mission. Besides, didn’t you guys notice? That child’s boots were clean, his palms were tender, the skin under his clothes was fair and spotless, and his hair was extremely clean. How could he be a village child?"

At this time, the Ling Hua Immortal Spirit gave him an answer. She informed him via an Evil God’s oracle. The Three Rivers Immortal Spirit was a lower-tier Immortal Spirit of the former Immortal Court. It liked to eat people, and its Physical Body was extremely strong.

Jiang Man nodded. A lower-tier Immortal Spirit meant its strength was average, and liking to eat people meant it didn’t like to use its brain. An extremely strong Physical Body meant it was all brawn and no brains. He just wasn’t sure how much it had recovered.

Soon after, Jiang Man and the others landed above the Sanhe Sect. They released the coercive pressure of their Primordial Spirits. This startled everyone inside into immediately flying out via Sword Control. Leading them was an old man.

"May I ask who you Immortals are?" the old man inquired with some surprise.

"We are from the Wuyun Sect, here on official business," Jiang Man stated.

Hearing this, the old man was astonished inwardly, wondering why they were here so early. Fortunately, almost everything had been arranged. The villages in the city had been prepared in advance. They could even pass a surprise inspection, which would only further prove how good things were here.

He then immediately said respectfully, "Guo He, Sect Leader of the subordinate Sanhe Sect, greets the Immortals." The four people who had come out with him also bowed respectfully. Then, they prepared to invite Jiang Man and the others inside.

To this, Jiang Man shook his head slightly. "Do you know what we are here to do?"

"We do not," Guo He shook his head.

Jiang Man nodded and said, "The Wuyun Sect is expanding and needs to incorporate your Sect. Afterward, we will send down resources to support the Sanhe Sect. From then on, the Sanhe Sect will fall under the Wuyun Sect’s domain and accept its jurisdiction. Unless necessary, there will be no changes to internal personnel or facilities."

Saying this, Jiang Man brought out the Immortal Sect contract. "If you are willing, just sign it," Jiang Man said.

He Que immediately interjected, "How can you let them sign so easily? We need to investigate further at the very least."

Jiang Man turned to look at He Que. With a calm and cold gaze, an imposing aura belonging to a prodigy instantly pressed down on him.

He Que froze in place. Finally, he gritted his teeth and said, "I will record everything truthfully."

Seeing that no one else objected, Guo He and the others were delighted. They immediately checked the contract and found that the contents were exactly as the person before them had stated. Ultimately, they chose to sign it. From now on, they were people of the Wuyun Sect. They had successfully entered the domain of a Major Sect and become one of its regional managers, marking a meteoric rise. It turned out they had over-prepared; there was no need for so much trouble at all.

Watching the other party sign the contract, Jiang Man felt a burst of power being drawn over. It blanketed the area. From now on, this place belonged to the vast governing domain of the Immortal Sect.

"Daoist Friend, we are all on the same side now," Guo He greeted with a smile. "Please, quickly come inside."

Jiang Man shook his head and pulled out a special stone. "We are indeed on the same side. However, I must remind you of one thing: the Sect and the Evil Gods are irreconcilable enemies. Therefore, any evil forces related to the Evil Gods must be eradicated."

After speaking, Jiang Man crushed the stone. This was the token for the person in charge to request backup.

Instantly, a massive Teleportation Array lit up the sky above the entire Sanhe Sect. Jiang Man’s voice began to echo through the surroundings: "I report that the Sanhe Sect, a subordinate Sect governed by the Wuyun Sect under the jurisdiction of the Immortal Sect, is colluding with an Evil God!"

In the next moment, massive amounts of Array Patterns extended across all the places Jiang Man had previously walked, subsequently forming a colossal Array. The Mountain and River Illusion Array.

Jiang Man watched all this with a smile. Immediately following, the Array meant to trap the Evil God also activated, spreading out from the furnace in his hand.

Excellent. They were all Spiritual Sources, and not a single one would escape.
