Chapter 770: Gu Jingman’s Transformation

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

In the series of three big Mountain Ranges, the most anxious sect was no doubt the Dafang Sect. Once the Dafang Sect members discovered the status the Crimson Star Sect held in the martial art circle, they were terrified. A gloomy vibe filled the sect. There were even some members who renounced the sect.

The clan leaders of the three main clans, the Zhou Clan, the Chen Clan, and the Yuan Clan, had all gathered at the chamber of affairs. The sect elders were there too. All of them had long faces. The atmosphere was sullen.

The Crimson Star Sect was a giant in the martial art circle. How could their Dafang Sect stand against them?

“I have reported this matter to the sect leader. He will take care of it. There is no need for you to worry.”

Wang Yinru was seated at the head of the table. She was calm and had been since the beginning. Her manner was firm, as though she was ready to take face anything head-on without batting an eyelid. Her verve and confidence had caused the atmosphere in the chamber of affairs to improve slightly.

“How does the sect leader plan to settle this matter? Could it be that he is really preparing to deliver an abject apology to their doorstep?” An elder in the Yuan Clan asked gingerly.

In his opinion, the only way to solve this matter was to follow the Crimson Star Sect’s instruction. Sect Leader Mo Wen needed to personally go to the Crimson Star Sect and deliver an abject apology by killing himself. Otherwise, the Dafang Sect would most likely be eradicated because they were definitely no match for the Crimson Star Sect.

“Why? Are you hoping that sect leader will go to deliver an abject apology?” Wang Yinru slowly cast a glance at the elder. No one could read the emotion in her eyes. “Yuan Pu, you are brazen.” The Yuan Clan leader’s facial expression changed slightly. She slapped the Yuan Clan elder without hesitation, sending the elder flying.

Yuan Pu got on his feet and fearfully knelt down. “I didn’t mean that,” he said. “The sect leader represents our Dafang Sect, and he is the soul of the sect. He certainly can’t go to the Crimson Star Sect and deliver an abject apology. Even if he does so in exchange for the Dafang Sect’s safety, most likely the Dafang Sect will not have any dignity left to face the martial art circle in the future. We would rather fight the Crimson Star Sect to the death than to ask the sect leader to deliver an abject apology. I was careless with my words just now. Sect Grand Elder, please punish me.”

He was well-aware of Wang Yinru’s ruthless management style. Within just a few months, everything in the Dafang Sect was sorted out in perfect order under her management. Everyone in the series of three big Mountain Ranges was likely to be afraid of her, let alone in the Dafand Sect.

Yuan Pu did not dare to really ask the sect leader to deliver an abject apology to the Crimson Star Sect. If he did, it was likely the whole Yuan Clan would suffer.

“Humph. It’s good that you are clear about our stand. The sect leader is the soul of the Dafang Sect. Could it be that all of you, as Dafang Sect members, would still dare to continue to live if the sect leader went to deliver an abject apology to the Crimson Star Sect just because they threatened us? I don’t care what your actual stand on this matter is. In short, all of us must obey the sect leader’s arrangement. Otherwise, don’t blame me for being impolite.”

Wang Yinru coldly glanced at everyone in the chamber. Her aura caused everyone to be unable to breathe. In the past few months, with the help of pills provided by Mo Wen, Wang Yinru had broken through to the later stage of the Embryonic Breathing Realm. Zhou Honglu, the Zhou Clan leader who also had Embryonic Breathing Realm cultivation, was shocked by her transformation. He had broken through to the Embryonic Breathing Realm more than a few decades ago, yet he had yet to break through to the intermediate stage of the Embryonic Breathing Realm. Wang Yinru had actually broken through to the later stage Embryonic Breathing Realm in just a few months. Her cultivation speed was unbelievable.

The power of the mysterious sect leader was remarkable, but even those who were under him were also very strong.

“This matter requires no further discussion. We only need to wait for instructions from the sect leader. We also need to go all out to search for any defectors. All defectors will be killed mercilessly.”

With a wave of her sleeves, Wang Yinru turned around and walked into the rear court. She had no intention of discussing the matter with the rest.

She also had no intention of letting the defectors go. Any that were caught would be killed without mercy. If they did not use more draconian measures to set an example and warn the people who intended to renounce the sect but had yet not acted, more people would defect in the future, very likely causing the sect to be torn apart.

In the chamber of affairs, the upper echelons all stared at each other. For a moment, nobody said anything. The atmosphere was sullen. They had not expected Wang Yinru to be so decisive and leave no room for discussion. She hadn’t even considered planning an escape route for the sect.

There were a few people who wanted to speak up. However, they kept it in until their faces were red because they did not dare to say it. Wang Yinru’s status in the Dafang Sect had reached the point where people were frightened by the mere mention of her name.

“If you are in the Dafang Sect, then your heart must also be with the Dafang Sect. If it isn’t, then something will go wrong one day. Please be advised.”

A few Dafang Sect elders saluted with their fists, leaving behind these words. They then turned and walked out of the chamber of affairs. Wang Yinru had already trained a batch of confidants in the Dafang Sect. Many positions of high authority were no longer held by the members of the three Clans.

These people were at least loyal to the Dafang Sect and were unlikely to show dissent. Compared to those sect members whose clan benefits were their top priority, these people were worlds apart.

Right now, the Dafang Sect could be said to be divided into two factions. One faction consisted of the sect members from the clans, while the other faction consisted of the sect members that had joined as disciples. The two factions had the tendency for subtle infighting.

“Elder Zhou.”

The Chen Clan leader and the Yuan Clan leader looked at Zhou Honglu at the same time. Not only was Zhou Honglu the Zhou Clan’s old clan leader, but he was also the person with the highest cultivation among the clans. At this moment, the members of the three clans all looked towards Zhou Honglu. They clearly trusted this sect grand elder, who was of the same origin as them, more than they trusted Wang Yinru.

“You were born into the Dafang Sect, and your heart should be with the Dafang Sect.”

Zhou Honglu sighed softly. Without another word, he turned and walked out of the chamber of affairs. In the Dafang Sect, the sect leader had always been supreme. His absolute ability ruled over everything.

They shouldn’t have any disloyal thoughts. Otherwise, the consequences were unbearable. Wang Yinru was definitely a person who would do anything.

Before this, she had worked with Mo Wen to eradicate the Jiang Clan. Right now, it was even easier for them to eradicate the other three clans. At that time, if it was not because the Dafang Sect could not sustain itself without the three main clans, Wang Yinru and Mo Wen would most likely have eradicated them as well. After all, they had chosen to stand with Jiang Clan instead of Wang Yinru.

The back garden took up a huge part of the sect’s territory. Its decoration was luxurious and its ambiance was pleasant. Normally, only Wang Yinru and a few maids stayed here. However, there was a guest in the back garden today.

“Sister Yinru, I’ve come to see you. Am I welcome here?”

In the back garden, a woman with a voluptuous figure lay on a deckchair. This woman held a glass of red wine in her hand. Once she saw Wang Yinru walking over, she stood up with a smile. Swaying her slender waist, she walked over enchantingly towards Wang Yinru.

This person was none other than Gu Jingman. Wang Yinru had not seen her for two months and noticed that Gu Jingman’s figure was getting more and more pronounced. Even a mature woman like Wang Yinru envied her curves.

“Gu Jingman.”

A look of astonishment flashed in Wang Yinru’s eyes. She had not expected Gu Jingman to suddenly appear in the Dafang Sect. The fact that Wang Yinru had not heard about it was even more surprising. How did she get in?

Dafang Sect had tight security. It was difficult for even an Embryonic Breathing Realm ancient martial art practitioner to infiltrate the back garden without setting off an alarm.

“What is it? Do you not welcome me?”

Gu Jingman’s lips curled into a smile. Her red lips were like fire and exceptionally seductive. They were so beautiful that they shamed the flowers in the garden.

“Why wouldn’t I welcome you? You are the supreme sect leader’s confidante. How would I dare to not welcome you?”

Wang Yinru smiled brilliantly. She welcomed Gu Jingman and said, “Sister Jingman, come in. Please excuse my lack of hospitality. By the way, why did you come in without letting us know first? You’ve made me miss out on welcoming you back.”

Wang Yinru looked at Gu Jingman somewhat strangely. She felt that Gu Jingman’s temperament had changed greatly. Her enchanting aura could be felt from a thousand feet away. It was as though Gu Jingman was an enchantress. As a woman, Wang Yinru could already sense it more strongly than a man was able to.

How had Gu Jingman changed so drastically in just two months? Although she was also enchanting before this, it was far less pronounced than it was now.

Even if Wang Yinru was told that Gu Jingman was the fox spirit Da Ji reincarnated, she would believe it.

Wang Yinru was very suspicious of whether Mo Wen could withstand the seductive behavior of this fox spirit. It was very likely that she had already seduced Mo Wen. Thay was why Wang Yinru had intentionally called Gu Jingman Mo Wen’s confidante.

“When I arrived I saw that you were discussing important matters in the chamber of affairs. Hence, I did not disturb you and came directly to the back garden to wait for you.”

Gu Jingman elegantly raised her hand and sipped a mouthful of red wine. She had begun to fall in love with this blood-like red wine.

Wang Yinru was shocked. Gu Jingman actually knew that she had been in the chamber of affairs just now. Even the maids of the rear courtyard would not know her whereabouts so accurately, so it was impossible for Gu Jingman to have heard about it from them.

For Gu Jingman to know that she was in the chamber of affairs without Wang Yinru realizing she had arrived, and for not even a single person in the entire Dafang Sect to have discovered that she had made her way in, was somewhat abnormal.

“Sister Jingman, nice job.” Wang Yinru looked undecidedly at Gu Jingman, her eyes filled with an incredulous look. Wang Yinru had later stage Embryonic Breathing Realm cultivation. If a beginning stage Embryonic Breathing Realm ancient martial art practitioner was within three hundred meters from her, she would be able detect them. Gu Jingman had actually escaped her detection. How had she done so?

“Sister, you must be joking. The one who has done a nice job is you, Mo Wen’s sister. Rumor has it that the Dafang Sect has gotten into a bit of trouble. A sect that is acting recklessly wants to find fault with my little brother. I have come specifically to see whether I can be of any assistance.” Gu Jingman smiled enchantingly. In an instant, she oozed fascination and charm.

“We have indeed a little trouble. However, Mo Wen is already on his way back. He will settle everything. Sister Jingman does not need to be too worried.”

Wang Yinru raised her eyebrows slightly. Gu Jingman even knew about this matter. They truly wanted to let the whole world know about it.

“What is it? Do you look down on me? I am not what I used to be.”

Gu Jingman raised her chin slightly. Her bright and slender neck was as elegant as a white swan. An unparalleled aura emanated from her body, instantly enveloping the entire back garden.

“You... you... how is it possible?”

Wang Yinru’s facial expression instantly changed as though she had seen a ghost. Her eyes were filled with a look of disbelief. Her back was covered in cold sweat. Under the power of this aura, she could not gather up the heart to resist. She could not move her entire body at all, even with her later stage Embryonic Breathing Realm cultivation. How was this possible?

What cultivation could cause Wang Yinru to be like this? Also, a little girl like Gu Jingman had only had Sea of Qi Realm cultivation before this. How could she have possibly become so terrifying in just two months?
