Super Rich Fantasy: I Grow Stronger By Spending Money

254 The Humiliation Came too Fast
The Misty Illusory Manor and the Dao Seeking Sect were full of confidence. After all, they had invited quite a number of grand elders on this mission. In addition to the strength of the various great elders and elite disciples, they had not expected that reality would give them a such a tight slap in the face.

No matter how bad the situation was, they thought they could at least hold on for a while, but they didn’t expect to fail so quickly. When the news reached Jingdu, some people didn’t dare believe it, even thinking that someone was deliberately spreading rumors or that it was miscommunicated information.

However, who would have the guts to mess with these tyrants?

The forces that were headed to Changping did not all leave at once. Instead, some of them stayed in Jingdu. After all, it was impossible for the entire sect to go there, so the sect master and some other disciples stayed behind to guard the place in case other accidents happened, or if someone took advantage of the situation.

Everyone had originally thought that this mission would be foolproof, but who would have thought that they would hear such news?

“What? They all entered the demonic beasts’ forest, but in the end, only a dozen or so people returned?”

When the sect master of the Misty Illusory Manor heard this, his eyes rolled back and he almost fainted.

When the other sects heard this, their hearts couldn’t help but tighten, and they quickly asked, “What about our sect?”

Looking at the messenger’s expression, they didn’t even dare to speak. They already knew the answer.

If this was the case for even the Misty Illusory Manor, there was no need to mention the other sects.

“How is this possible? Is there some misunderstanding or is there a mistake in the information? ”

These were the most elite forces in the sects, and there were even many grand elders in charge. With so many powerful characters keeping guard, even if they couldn’t take down the flood dragon, they should be able to retreat safely.

The result shouldn’t have been so tragic.

The person who reported the news felt a huge pressure. Facing the sect leaders’ piercing gazes, he trembled and almost couldn’t speak.

“This was sent urgently from Changping, and it was the City Lord who told me this. I don’t think there’s any mistake…”

When he said the last sentence, his voice was already as soft as a mosquito’s.

The sect master of the Dao Seeking Sect took in a deep breath and forced himself to calm down. A few dozen people – this number was no different from being completely annihilated.

Everyone hurriedly looked at their natal lamps. They heaved a sigh of relief when they saw that their natal lamps were still burning.

If everyone died there, the sects’ vitality would be greatly damaged, and even their foundations would be shaken. They would not be able to stabilize their current status and might even fall to become second or first tier sects.

To these superpowers, this was something they could not accept.

“Fortunately, the natal lamps haven’t been extinguished yet. They should be fine.”

The heavens seemed to be deliberately playing a joke on them. As soon as he finished speaking, the natal lamps’ glows became weak, like candles swaying in the wind, in danger of being extinguished at any time.

“This…”

The others were dumbfounded and quickly surrounded the lamps, afraid that the natal lamps would go out in the next second.

The faces of these sect masters turned grim. If those people really died, the consequences would be unimaginable.

“What did those people who returned say?”

“Some of the elders and disciples managed to return, but they are all weak. Their minds seemed to have been greatly stimulated and they couldn’t explain what happened. It must be the work of that group of demonic beasts.”

The expressions of the people from the Dao Seeking Sect became even darker. For this trip to Changping, they had sent out a total of four grand elders. Their goal was that flood dragon, but who knew that it would turn out like this?

Those disciples and elders could be put aside for the time being. Even if they died, it would not be a serious issue for the sect. They could be slowly nurtured in the future. However, if it was a grand elder, the implication was different.

One had to know that these grand elders were the sect’s treasures. Each one of them had extraordinary talent and had excellent qualifications. It could be said that it took a lot of effort and all kinds of resources to cultivate them, and it also took a long time.

If even one of them accidentally died, their hearts would ache, not to mention four of them. They would probably fall out of the Seven Great Sects’ list.

At present, there were only two grand elders in the Jing sect’s territory, and they couldn’t resist the invasion of other forces.

“Maybe things haven’t reached the worst point yet. They’re just missing. After all, their natal lamps haven’t been extinguished yet. Maybe they still have a chance of survival.”

The Dao Seeking Sect master shook his head, “Even if they have a chance, their situation isn’t any better. Based on their current precarious situation, I’m afraid they won’t be able to last much longer.”

The Misty Illusory Manor and the other powers did not stay for long. After all, their own sects also had a pile of mess to clean up.

If it was in the past, they might have stayed to watch the show and gloat at at the misfortune of others. However, they also had their own powerful cultivators in danger, so how could they be in the mood?

Looking at their backs as they left in a hurry to discuss countermeasures, the sect master of the Dao Seeking Sect said in a deep voice, “It seems like I need to make a trip to Changping.”

Upon hearing the sect master’s thoughts, the other elders did not agree with him.

“Sect leader, you must not. We’ve already lost some men in Changping. If you encounter any danger there, what should we do? Wouldn’t we be a group of dragons without a leader?”

“Even if you go, you won’t be able to solve anything. The four grand elders couldn’t do anything, so what can you think of?”

Although these words were not pleasant to hear, they were reasonable.

Most importantly, it wasn’t just their grand elder who had fallen there. There were also powerhouses from other forces. These people couldn’t just watch them die.

Although they were temporarily in a cooperative relationship and each had their own plans, they also knew to look at the bigger picture as they would be facing a powerful enemy together.
