The forest covered by the formation;

The short and not intense battle ended for a moment.

Wu Wang looked at the displayed artifacts in front of him, as well as the several low-level storage treasures placed on the side, revealing a satisfied smile.

This Yang Wudi's attainments in the "mechanism" path can also be called a master.

The "owner" Yang Wudi stood on the side with a face full of grievances, watching the sect master continuously disassemble and assemble his inherited artifacts. He wanted to remind the sect master to handle them with care, but also had some fear. His heart was trembling like a fragile vase...

These are all his reliance in battles.

"Yang steward, come and help."

Mao Aowu called out, and Yang Wudi hurriedly came over, turning his head three times with each step, interrogating the group of cultivators together.

The two followed Wu Wang's simple instructions—

First, use immortal power to create a small soundproof barrier, taking turns to bring each cultivator into it, asking the same questions each time. Each time they came out, they would knock out the previous interrogated cultivator and throw them aside, with a hint of a smile, then interrogate the next one.

Soon, similar testimonies fell into Mao Aowu's hands, and he recorded them with a recording artifact.

"Master, look at these testimonies. The process of these people committing crimes is similar to what we expected."

Mao Aowu presented the recording artifact to Wu Wang, but was rejected by Wu Wang raising his hand.

Wu Wang said, "This is your Renhuang Pavilion's case file. I can't watch it. Is there anything inside that we missed?"

Mao Aowu sighed, "I can only say that the housekeeper of the sect, Lin Suqing, is really lucky..."

[These cultivators who killed for treasures come from a nearby immortal sect called "Water Lin Tian Sect."

This time, the chief elder of the sect personally led a few trusted elders and their disciples to rob the Liufeng Sword Sect and the Gentle Breeze Gazing Moon Sect.

The cause was that an elder of the Gentle Breeze Gazing Moon Sect brought several precious mines to a shop opened by the Water Lin Tian Sect in a certain town, exchanging them for several artifacts. As a result, they were targeted by the Water Lin Tian Sect, and the chief elder sent people to investigate secretly.

When the Water Lin Tian Sect confirmed that there were still many precious mines in the Gentle Breeze Gazing Moon Sect and found out that it was just a small and unknown sect, they immediately had malicious intentions.]

Yang Wudi muttered, "What does it have to do with the Liufeng Sword Sect?"

"It's purely an innocent disaster, cough, purely a disaster that affected them."

Mao Aowu crossed his arms and leaned against a tree trunk, continuing to speak:

"According to the mastermind, they initially did not notice that they were two sects and thought it was one sect with two branches.

And the two sects are too close. If they moved against the Gentle Breeze Gazing Moon Sect, they would definitely not be able to hide it from the Liufeng Sword Sect.

They took advantage of the night to launch a surprise attack and easily subdued the cultivators of these two sects. They used their magic power to take them in the opposite direction of the Water Lin Tian Sect, deliberately traveling thousands of miles away before destroying the bodies.

Then they took a detour and returned here to interrogate several elders of the Gentle Breeze Gazing Moon Sect, asking where those precious mines came from."

Wu Wang frowned and asked, "Did they find Suqing?"

"No, that's why I said Lin Suqing is very lucky. She left the mountain gate half a day earlier and avoided the disaster."

Mao Aowu sighed and continued, "The testimonies did not mention Lin Suqing or any female disciples.

Although these survivors of the Gentle Breeze Gazing Moon Sect exploited their disciples and had poor conduct, they did not betray Lin Suqing.

Perhaps, their conscience is not completely gone."

Wu Wang looked at the elders of the Gentle Breeze Gazing Moon Sect trapped in a barrier. Most of them had dull eyes and had lost their brilliance.

"What about the others from the Gentle Breeze Gazing Moon Sect?"

"They were killed," Mao Aowu said, "They only left the elder in charge and the young disciples, who were dealt with together with the people from the Liufeng Sword Sect."

Yang Wudi cursed, "Who is the demonic sect in the end? They've uprooted everything!"

"Wudi," Wu Wang said, "Please take these people from the Gentle Breeze Gazing Moon Sect back."

"Yes," Yang Wudi agreed, then turned around and asked, "Master, do you mean to take them to meet Fairy Lin or..."

He made a gesture around his neck.

Looking a bit like a demonic cultivator.

Wu Wang smiled, "Take them to Fuyu City and rent a small courtyard for them to stay for now. When this storm passes, let them decide for themselves.

By the way, leave the Left Cave Daoist here. We will need another victim to speak later."

"Yes, I understand."

Yang Wudi bowed and saluted, then looked at the artifacts placed in front of the sect master. He felt a bit distressed before turning and leaving.

He added, "Brother Mao, please remember that my reward this time will be doubled."

The bald and muscular man immediately became spirited, full of vigor and confidence, striding forward with blood radiating around him!

This scared many of the captured cultivators, causing their bodies to tremble.

Wu Wang picked up the storage treasures and classified the cleverly designed artifacts in front of him, preparing to study them in detail later.

"Mao, when will the support from Renhuang Pavilion arrive?""It should be soon," Mao Aowu smiled, "Actually, there's no need to bring too many people over. I'll just take these people back to the nearest branch."

"No, that's not good. It's easy for people to turn it around and say that the demonic cultivators are targeting the immortal sect."

Wu Wang looked at the person from the Left Cave and transmitted his voice to call for Left Cave's true person, indicating for him to come to the corner to meet.

The Sect Master once again instructed Mao Aowu, saying:

"I will inform Left Cave's true person on how to speak later. Brother Mao, you must keep a low profile this time, don't be too greedy for power. The credit for this mission should be distributed as much as possible."

"I suddenly have a bad feeling..."

"What kind of feeling?"

Mao Aowu looked at the young Sect Master in front of him, but he couldn't see through the light in the Sect Master's eyes.

"This matter may get out of control. We must completely isolate ourselves from the destruction of our sect and Su Qing outside, or else we might get burned."

On the other side, Left Cave's true person, who had hurried over, saw Wu Wang's figure.

The old Daoist was first stunned, then tears flowed freely from his eyes. He bent his legs and knelt down on the muddy grass, crying in the forest.

His voice was sorrowful and touched the hearts and minds of others.

...

Just as Wu Wang said, this matter had indeed escalated.

On that day, Yang Wudi first took the surviving members of the Gentle Breeze Gazing Moon Sect away. Wu Wang and Left Cave's true person had been admonishing him for a long time until two streaks of light appeared hundreds of miles away, and the support from the Renhuang Pavilion arrived.

Wu Wang, considering himself Mao Aowu's little brother, observed the development of the situation from the side.

Mao Aowu gave a signal and met with a male and female immortal enforcer who had arrived. He explained the cause and effect of the matter in detail and took away the culprits and Left Cave's true person.

Mao Aowu sent Wu Wang back to Fuyu City before hastily rushing to the branch of the Renhuang Pavilion.

The Renhuang Pavilion immediately dispatched hundreds of immortal soldiers to surround the Water Lin Tian Sect and sealed off their mountain gate.

The reason why the Gentle Breeze Gazing Moon Sect was targeted by this immortal sect was downplayed, only stating that they were greedy for wealth and plotted against others.

The situation had developed mostly according to Wu Wang's arrangements.

The order in the Human Realm was not based on the law of the jungle.

Powerful immortal sects plundering weaker immortal sects was an almost unforgivable crime in a Human Realm that emphasized "unity against outsiders."

If this trend continued, the Human Realm would not need to confront the foreign gods. Internal conflicts alone would cause its collapse.

Immortal sects that became stronger through exploiting weaker immortal sects would also find it difficult to sincerely guard the borders of the Human Realm.

In simple terms, the Water Lin Tian Sect had committed a grave taboo.

The culprits were quickly convicted, and the furious Sect Master of the Renhuang Pavilion ordered the execution of the attackers. The Water Lin Tian Sect was disbanded on the spot, and the cause and effect of this matter were written in a notice and posted in major cities in the Human Realm.

The problem arose in this final step.

Search "pawℝead.com" for the original.

Once this matter was announced, the Human Realm was in an uproar, with constant arguments between the immortal and demonic cultivators.

At first, some demonic experts came forward and subtly insulted the immortal sects, saying that they were all hypocrites who appeared indifferent to fame and fortune but were actually dirty and not as free-spirited as the demonic cultivators.

Initially, the immortal sects ignored them, after all, it was just a matter of a few rotten apples in the immortal path, which didn't cause much harm but was highly insulting.

But as more and more demonic experts ridiculed the immortal path, some immortal experts couldn't help but retort.

As a result, within half a month, the Human Realm was in turmoil.

There were verbal battles raging from north to south, with the immortal and demonic cultivators debating about justice.

The sight was filled with furious barking, and the ears were filled with vulgar language.

Fortunately, the Renhuang Pavilion responded in a timely manner and ordered the immortal and demonic cultivators not to engage in conflicts.

Although the majority of cultivators remained restrained, in some areas, there were sporadic fights among cultivators, resulting in several incidents of bloodshed.

Wu Wang originally didn't want to deal with these matters and believed that the subordinates of the senior elders could handle such incidents well.

But when Wu Wang saw that two groups of cultivators were confronting each other in front of his own shop in Fuyu City for two days and nights, seriously affecting the business, he had no choice but to recall the busy Mao Aowu.

Mao Aowu hurriedly arrived at Fuyu City and went straight to the top floor of the city, which was the bustling Mie Zong Restaurant - Guantao Building.

Just as he reached the highest floor and hadn't had time to calm his immortal power, he heard the melodious immortal music coming from ahead. Mao Aowu followed the sound with his large sword on his back and was led by Yang Wudi, who came to greet him, to a loft.

He pushed open the door, and the music became clearer.

He saw five graceful and elegant female disciples of the Heiyu Sect, each with their own unique charm, rehearsing a dance to the music.

He also saw two reclining chairs by the window, and an old and a young person lying on them. Several female disciples lightly tapped small wooden hammers while two others gently fanned the air on both sides.

He could also see the chilled fruit wine in the wooden barrel, the incense burner emitting a faint smoke, exquisite carpets, hot cooked food, and a group of colorful butterflies dancing outside the window...

This!

Mao Aowu held his breath and widened his eyes. Although he knew that his Sect Master's younger brother enjoyed luxury, he didn't expect the Great Elder to be so...

Corrupt! Decadent! This is... too corrupt!

Wu Wang raised his hand and said, "Give Brother Mao a seat."

In an instant.

"Ah, comfortable."Mao Aowu closed his eyes and let out a sigh of relief. His feet were soaking in a steaming wooden tub, and it felt like his cultivation had been elevated.

He didn't forget about the important matter at hand and asked softly, "Master, why did you urgently summon me back? Renhuang Pavilion is in desperate need of manpower, and it's been extremely busy inside and out."

The Great Elder closed his eyes and seemed to have fallen asleep.

Wu Wang gestured for the female disciples around him to leave. Yang Wudi pulled the curtain closed and enveloped the area with a protective barrier of immortal energy.

Wu Wang asked, "How does Renhuang Pavilion plan to handle this immortal-demon verbal battle?"

"Ah," Mao Aowu sighed, "what else can we do? We've had many of these battles before. The conflict between immortals and demons has been going on for a long time, and it's difficult to determine who is right or wrong."

Wu Wang lifted the nightlight cup and took a sip. "So, we just wait for the cultivators' anger to subside?"

Mao Aowu shook his head, bitterly smiling.

He said, "We can only wait for the anger to subside... sigh, but we can't ignore this matter. We must make an example out of someone to deter others from doing the same."

In fact, the Pavilion Master and the others had already anticipated this situation. However, the intensity of this battle was greater than any previous ones.

"By the way, have you arranged for Zuo Dong Dao Ren?"

"I've had him go into hiding, so he won't be affected," Wu Wang said. "Haven't you seen Su Qing? Her master has encountered a major change, so she should spend more time with the elderly and show filial piety."

"Why did you call me back, Master?"

"Mao Big Brother, do you want to obtain a higher position in Renhuang Pavilion?" Wu Wang's eyes carried a hint of amusement. "This is a good opportunity."

Mao Aowu was a bit puzzled and muttered, "What's the use of a higher position? The salaries in Renhuang Pavilion are about the same."

"If the sect wants to truly grow and become stronger, it must have elders occupying a place in Renhuang Pavilion," Wu Wang said seriously. "This is actually for the sake of the sect."

"But I'm not cut out for that."

"Just consider it as making a contribution to the sect."

The Great Elder interjected, "The sect needs you to step forward."

Mao Aowu furrowed his brows and pondered for a while before nodding slowly. "Then I'll step forward."

"Here," Wu Wang stuffed a jade talisman into Mao Aowu's palm. "The Three Strategies of the Boundless Sea. You must find a way to present the best strategy to the Pavilion Master in your own way."

"What is this?"

Mao Aowu held the jade talisman and looked at it, his expression changing rapidly. Soon, his eyes lit up and a smile appeared on his face as he turned to look at Wu Wang.

"Can you tell me more about it?"

Wu Wang laughed and scolded, "Can't you understand so many expressions?"

Mao Aowu smiled awkwardly. "I understand some, but I'm afraid of misunderstanding."

Wu Wang suppressed his laughter and explained in detail.

The first strategy is actually quite simple. Renhuang Pavilion will capture a large number of people and directly detain those who are most enthusiastic about this verbal battle. They will be secretly interrogated and the news will be publicly announced, stating that the Ten Calamities Palace instigated this battle in secret.

If there are members of the Ten Calamities Palace, they will be directly dealt with and their names will be publicly announced.

If no members of the Ten Calamities Palace are captured, those who should be released will be released, and a fake list will be made and publicly announced.

Regardless, the Ten Calamities Palace must be made to take the blame, thereby diverting the firepower of the immortal and demon cultivators.

The second strategy is not troublesome. Renhuang Pavilion will directly invite influential experts from the immortal and demon paths to speak about the difficulties of the Human Realm, reminisce about the past, and promote the concept of unity in the Human Realm.

The third strategy is a bit more difficult.

Renhuang Pavilion will hold a banquet or a commendation ceremony in the name of the Human Emperor. They will gather the leaders of the top 200 sects from the immortal and demon paths, allowing everyone to eat and chat, and enhance the friendship between the immortal and demon paths...

Mao Aowu's foot-soaking water hadn't cooled yet when this silver-haired Heavenly Immortal hurriedly left Fuyu City.

In just three days, Renhuang Pavilion launched a heavy attack, capturing hundreds of immortal and demon experts. Within half a day, most of them were released, and the names of the spies from the Ten Calamities Palace who instigated the immortal-demon verbal battle were publicly announced.

This left several strategists from the Ten Calamities Palace puzzled, wondering why there were spies from their side.

But within five days, elderly experts with white hair appeared in the sects and towns, telling stories from the past and advising the contemporary cultivators to respect and love each other.

Half a month later, the immortal-demon verbal battle in the Human Realm gradually subsided. Renhuang Pavilion sent out invitations to the leaders of the top 400 sects from the immortal and demon paths, inviting them to gather at the residence of Renhuang Pavilion.

What shocked the thousands of cultivators was that the Human Emperor, Shen Nong Yan Emperor, would make an appearance at this banquet.

The spirits of the cultivators were lifted, and it felt like spring had arrived in the Human Realm. Even the cultivators who were not involved in the banquet felt inexplicably relieved and had a clearer mind.

And the true "mastermind" behind all this, who received the golden invitation from Renhuang Pavilion, was cultivating in a restaurant in Fuyu City.

Wu Wang lifted the nightlight cup and took a sip of wine. He took a bite of the roasted meat from the Thousand-Year Ferocious Beast and hummed a cheerful tune.

My esteemed father-in-law, are you well? Can we meet after I become an immortal?"Hahaha! Hahahahaha! Hahahahahaha!"

Classic Broadcast: The Sect Leader's Laughter.

The surrounding disciples of the destroyed sect looked at the Sect Leader with even more admiration in their eyes.
