The Sect Leader Has Taken in a New Female Disciple

At the same time, Gao Xuan stood at the bow of a main battleship, his posture tall and upright like a pine tree, with his long hair wildly dancing in the wind.

With his hands behind his back, he gazed down at the battle preparation below, his expression stern.

"This expedition concerns the honor and survival of our Taiqing Sect. All disciples must bravely advance, and not retreat in the slightest!"

Gao Xuan's voice echoed through the clouds like thunder, prompting the disciples to shout in unison, "We will follow the decree and be invincible in battle!"

Their voices shook the sky, as if tearing the heavens apart.

"The time has come, set sail!" Gao Xuan forcefully swung his sleeve, and the spiritual light on the battleship shone brightly.

Moreover, the Dharma Seal of the Sect Leader lit up the night sky, and then the barrier of the mountain gate was completely lifted.

One battleship after another slowly started, moving towards the designated location.

Half an hour later, three more battleships silently emerged from the mountain gate, eerily quiet inside, with Lu Yaoyao being pressed back down the moment she poked her head out.

Then, like phantoms, the battleships sped off in another direction.

It was already past midnight, and in the Yinan Ridge mountains, tens of thousands of Phecda Sect disciples were waiting silently.

In addition, countless people bound by iron chains knelt on the ground as if resigned to their fate, awaiting the arrival of death.

They were all gathered by Master Xuanji, used to impersonate Taiqing Sect disciples, heading towards the first route as cannon fodder.

"Sect Leader, the time has passed, why are they still not here?" asked an elder, dressed in the same white robe, worriedly.

Master Xuanji furrowed his brow, continuously calculating, and soon a smile appeared on his face.

"No worries, they will be here soon!" Sure enough, after waiting for about the time it takes to burn a stick of incense, countless battleships began to appear from the horizon.

Seeing this, everyone heaved a sigh of relief.

Master Xuanji's lips curled into a strange smile.

The situation is settled!

However, just as everyone rose to greet them, they saw those battleships suddenly stop mid-air, followed by the rear ships becoming the front ships and starting to leave rapidly.

This scene left everyone stunned.

No way, what does this mean?

Then, a figure instantly appeared.

"Greetings, Master Xuanji!" Gao Xuan greeted anxiously.

Master Xuanji pointed to the sky in confusion, "Gao Xuan, what's going on?"

Gao Xuan replied, "Just got word that an unknown force is attacking our Taiqing Sect. The Sect Leader and the others plan to return first to aid. You know, this rescue mission brought nearly everyone out, leaving the rear vulnerable."

"Impossible!" Master Xuanji exclaimed in disbelief.

Gao Xuan continued, "Indeed, with so many battleships departing the mountain gate, we must have been targeted by some schemers who don't intend to let us complete the aid mission."

Master Xuanji hurriedly said, "We've prepared everything here...you all..."

"But we also prepared and came as per the agreement. You should see that. The main issue is that the other side caught us off guard, and we can't afford to be attacked from both the front and back," Gao Xuan said helplessly.

Soon, Gao Xuan seemed to sense something, immediately taking out his identity token to check. He then said, "The Sect Leader just sent a message saying we can only do it tomorrow night. With the foundation of the Cyan Feather Immortal Sect, they should be able to hold on for a while."

"How about this, Master Xuanji, come back to Taiqing Sect with us for now? We can discuss further after handling the situation in the rear!" Gao Xuan suggested.

Master Xuanji furrowed his brow and looked again at the large number of retreating battleships. He could sense Gao Xuan wasn't lying; those battleships were nearly full of people and blood qi was soaring.

But, but—

The plan wasn't like this, what is Cangyan Daoist Palace up to?

"Forget it, since the Taiqing Sect is under sudden attack and I am aware of it, I should extend a helping hand!" Master Xuanji made a quick decision after some thought.

He immediately ordered ten battleships to prepare and depart at once for aid, while the remaining personnel stayed in place, ready for further instructions.

Seeing this, Gao Xuan was full of gratitude, cupping his fists in salute, "Many thanks for your righteous assistance, Master Xuanji."

Master Xuanji smiled bitterly and sighed, "In such critical moments, we can only support each other to overcome the crisis."

Upon finishing his words, everyone hurriedly boarded the battleships.

"Brother Cao and the others are not here?" Master Xuanji asked in confusion as he boarded the ship.

Gao Xuan replied, "Due to the urgency, they have already rushed back earlier."

"In that case, let's increase our speed. Having decided to help, I do not wish to merely add to the flower arrangement," Master Xuanji said with a hint of a smile.

Gao Xuan nodded in agreement, loudly calling out, "Director Li Bin!"

As his voice fell, a mid-stage Divinity Transformation Realm cultivator quickly stepped forward, and this person was none other than Director Li Bin of the Spirit Field Department.

"I and Master Xuanji will rush to catch up with the Sect Leader first. The rest of the troops will be left to your command!" Gao Xuan solemnly instructed.

Li Bin bowed respectfully and replied loudly, "Yes!"

Immediately, Gao Xuan and Master Xuanji headed to the Taiqing Sect at the fastest speed.

...

As the first light of dawn appeared, a faint white glow spreading across the sky, like a light veil softly covering the land.

Soon, three massive battleships quietly appeared, hidden among the forest.

Led by Lu Yaoyao, all core disciples and true inheritors stepped out of the cabins, standing ready on the deck.

Duanmu Shu and the other five Supreme Elders exchanged glances and then nodded.

In the next moment, all the runes on the three battleships were instantly activated by spiritual power, and multiple powerful arrays began to operate with a rumbling sound.
