Li Yu did not speak. Although this was the first time he had heard of the contract seal, he could roughly guess what it was.
He couldn’t help but sigh in his heart. His father was indeed an experienced man. In this way, he wouldn’t have to worry about this Turtle Spiritual Earth Core Flame with an ulterior motive. Otherwise, this guy would be a time bomb.
Once his father planted a contract seal on Wu Chang, he would obediently submit to them. This way, Wu Chang could stay with his father in the future and protect his father’s safety.
With a Soul Formation Stage bodyguard, he wouldn’t have to worry about his father getting kidnapped again.
Li Qingyun formed hand seals before a strange golden totem surfaced on his fingertip.
“Wu Chang!” He looked at Wu Chang, indicating for him to accept this contract.
Wu Chang closed his eyes and opened his sea of consciousness, allowing Li Qingyun to send the contract seal into it.
As the golden totem fused into the sea of consciousness of the turtle spirit, the contract seal was successfully planted.
“Alright, Wu Chang, you are now a member of the Qingyun Sect in the future. In the future, I will be your master, and Li Yu will be your Young Master! You must be loyal to us. Of course, we will not mistreat you. And we will honor our promise!” Li Qingyun said solemnly.
Although his cultivation was crippled and his meridians had not fully recovered. His actual cultivation was only at the late stage of the Foundation Establishment Realm.
However, he still sounded like a revered expert.
“Wu Chang will definitely follow Master and Young Master’s lead!” Wuchang cupped his hands and announced.
After they subdued the Turtle Spiritual Earth Core Flame, Li Yu and Li Qingyun started to seize the assets of the Netherworld Demon Sect.
It had to be said that as the most powerful sect in the Great Xia Dynasty, the wealth of the Netherworld Demon Sect was indeed shocking.
Spirit stones, spirit crystals, rare treasures, various cultivation techniques, pills, and weapons…
Furthermore, with Wu Chang as their guide, the father and son practically left nothing valuable behind. They looted the entire Netherworld Demon Sect empty and filled up over 50 storage magic treasures. Right now, the Netherworld Demon Sect was cleaner than how bandits would have left it.
Meanwhile, Li Yu’s collection task was more than half completed.
Divine weapons collection: 12 / 20.
Refining techniques collection: 15 / 20
Pills and Pill Formulas collection: 39 / 50
Cultivation techniques collection: 35 / 50
Spirit herbs collection, 42 / 50
Natural Oddities: 2 / 10
Li Yu couldn’t help but sigh that he had destroyed the rich to become wealthy himself!
Looting was indeed the fastest way to get rich!
Four hours after Li Yu and Li Qingyun left the Netherworld Demon Sect.
The Jade Pure Dao Sect, the Great Sky Dao Sect, the Five Elements Sect, the Star Dou Sect, and other orthodox sects arrived at the Netherworld Demon Sect.
Shock emerged on the faces of everyone when they saw the state of the Netherworld Demon Sect.
“The Netherworld Demon Sect has really been annihilated!” They’d already guessed it when they entered the Netherworld Demon Sect’s territory earlier since there was no array formation or patrolling disciples there to stop them.
It was apparent that something really happened to the Netherworld Demon Sect.
However, they could not help but feel shocked when they saw it with their own eyes.
Of course, there was also a sense of relief and joy.
The Netherworld Demon Sect that was at its peak and terrorized the orthodox sects had actually been destroyed.
If they were not at the scene right now and saw it with their own eyes, they would probably not believe this happened.
“Look at the huge sword marks on the ground. It must be that unknown expert who killed the Wolf King!” commented Perfected Yu Hua in a low voice.
Based on the situation at the scene, the person who annihilated the Netherworld Demon Sect was clearly not the Demon Child.
Moreover, the gigantic ravine-like sword mark on the ground was identical to the wolf king’s camp.
Therefore, Perfected Yu Hua could determine that the same person likely did it.
On the way here, they had also heard about the mysterious expert driving off the Wolf King Army, so they especially went to the Wolf King’s clan camp to see for themselves.
At that time, Elder Hu had already recognized that the mysterious expert was probably the person who had killed Shi Potian.
“I wonder who this expert is!” Perfected Yu Hua was filled with curiosity. To be able to destroy the Netherworld Demon Sect, this person’s strength far surpassed his own. He was probably at least at the Profound Void Martial Stage.
It was truly astonishing that the Great Xia Dynasty had a hidden Profound Void Martial Stage expert.
“Now, I suspect that the demon child might also be killed by this mysterious expert!” Elder Hu remarked.
“That’s possible!” Everyone nodded.
“I wonder if Elder Xu, Elder Chu, and the rest are still alive. Elder Hu, lead everyone to split up and search immediately!” Perfected Yu Hua hurriedly ordered after recovering from his shock.
“Yes!” Elder Hu quickly led the disciples to find Elder Xu, Elder Chu, and the others.
As for the people from the large sects, they could not wait to begin searching for the treasures of the Netherworld Demon Sect.
However, the Netherworld Demon Sect was simply cleaner than being robbed by bandits, much to everyone’s surprise.
“This… Could it be that someone beat us to it?”
“It can’t be, right? It will take some time to empty the Netherworld Demon Sect!”
“Perhaps that mysterious expert took all of it away! This expert is really…!” Everyone was at a loss whether to laugh or cry.
It seemed that this expert was greedy!
Everyone shook their heads in disappointment.
However, when they thought of the fact that the Netherworld Demon Sect had been eliminated, they were still satisfied.
At the same time, Elder Hu found Elder Chu, Elder Xu, and the others in the dungeon.
The captured disciples of the Jade Pure Dao Sect wept with joy after they were freed.
In next to no time, the members of the various factions of the Grand Xia Dynasty arrived at the Netherworld Demon Sect.
In fact, Million Sins Sect, the Free Spirit Sect, the Yin Yue Sect, these fiend sects had also gathered here.
Mo Lin probably did not expect that the destruction of his sect would actually lead to the extremely rare gathering of the various powerhouses of the Great Xia Dynasty.
When they saw the destroyed Netherworld Demon Sect, Million Sin Sect, the Free Spirit Sect, and the Yin Yue Sect were filled with panic.
Even when faced with the verbal provocation from the orthodox sects, none of them dared to utter a word as they fled in a hurry.
How could they know if the mysterious expert that annihilated the Netherworld Demon Sect was amongst these people?
They didn’t want to follow in the footsteps of the Netherworld Demon Sect.
“Haha, this is too awesome! After all these years where the fiend sects have been rampant, this time, their domineering influence is finally damaged. Looking at them flee with their tails between their legs really makes me feel good!” Elder Hu laughed happily.
“These fiend sects should start restraining themselves!” An elder from the Five Elements Sect said.
It was as everyone had expected. After the Million Sin Sect, the Free Spirit Sect, and the Yin Yue Sect’s sect leaders returned to their respective sects, they immediately ordered all the disciples to restrain their behavior and not do anything immoral.
They ordered the various elders and hall masters to strictly control their disciples. Everyone was barred from stirring up trouble, especially not people from the orthodox path. Peace was most important.
Some fiend sects even went as far as introducing new sect rules that were stricter than an orthodox sect.
They were only short of sending disciples to accumulate merit and do good, upholding justice.
This caused the fiend sect disciples to doubt their lives.
Especially for some disciples who had just entered the sect, they felt that they had joined a fake fiend sect.
