Chapter 269: Qingxuan Sect's Disaster

Shi Chen stopped practicing and walked out of the cabin. He had a vague feeling that as long as he practiced for half a month, he would be able to break through to the seventh level of the Spirit Transformation Realm.

Liang Ruyan and the other two were standing on the deck. When they heard the hatch open, they turned around and saw Shi Chen walking slowly towards them.

"Husband, we have arrived at the market outside the gate of Qingxuan Sect. Should we go directly into Qingxuan Sect, or go to the market first to find out the situation?" Liang Ruyan asked.

"I have been expelled, so it is not convenient to visit directly. Let's go to the market first to see what the Qingxuan Sect has been like in recent years." Shi Chen said after a little thought.

Shi Chen rented a room in Xianzhan and sat inside waiting.

In the past few years, many conflicts had broken out in this market, and Shi Chen was well-known to the people there, so it was difficult for him to directly inquire about the situation. Furthermore, if several people suddenly arrived at the same market gate to inquire about the situation, it would cause unnecessary misunderstandings. So Liang Ruyan and Huang Ziying had to go out and investigate.

Half an hour later, they both returned to the Immortal Inn.

As Liang Ruyan entered the room, her face was filled with anxiety. She quickly walked up to Shi Chen and said, "Husband, the situation in Qingxuan Sect is a bit complicated."

She frowned slightly, her eyes full of worry.

"Complicated? Did Sect Leader Fang have a quarrel with them after he came back?" Shi Chen asked with his eyes wide open in surprise.

"The rumor in the market is that two years ago, when Sect Master Fang Huan and the Third Elder returned, they discovered that the First and Second Elders had already cleaned up the entire Qingxuan Sect. Those who did not support them, from the elders to the outer disciples, were all expelled from the sect." Huang Ziying frowned slightly and spoke slowly.

"Have you found out the specific situation of Qingxuan Sect now?" Shi Chen asked.

"After Sect Master Fang and his men made a big fuss, the Supreme Elder came out and saw that the First Elder and the Second Elder had already taken control of the entire Qingxuan Sect. He actually slapped Sect Master Fang in the face and expelled him from the Qingxuan Sect, and refused to accept him as a disciple. The Third Elder was not convinced and argued with the Supreme Elder, but was also expelled from the sect by him." Huang Ziying said.

"Have you found out the whereabouts of the two people now?" Shi Chen asked.

"There is no news about them yet. Rumor has it that they have gone to Dayu Continent, but I don't know whether it's true or not." Huang Ziying said.

"In that case, let's also set off for Dayu Continent, hoping to find them there." Shi Chen said.

"Okay, let's set off right away." Huang Ziying stood up, walked to the window, and picked up Xu Qing.

The four of them came to the door of the Immortal Inn. Shi Chen suddenly stopped at the door, blocking the people behind him and also blocking the cultivators from entering the Immortal Inn.

"You..." The cultivator closest to Shi Chen discovered that his way was blocked and was about to curse, but he found that the person blocking his way had an unfathomable level of cultivation and could not see clearly. He stopped immediately and said with a smile: "It's me who blocked the way, senior, please come in!"

After saying that, he stepped aside, walked quickly onto the street, and entered the crowd.

"What's wrong with my husband?" Liang Ruyan asked in surprise. She knew something must have gone wrong. He and Shi Chen had fought together for the longest time, and she could understand what Shi Chen meant with just the slightest gesture.

"Some people don't want us to leave. Haha, I want to see how they are going to keep us. You guys take care of yourselves, I'll go meet them." Shi Chen said confidently.

"Husband, be careful! We are waiting for you here." Xu Qianying said with concern.

"Don't worry, a few jumping clowns can't do anything to me. Last time I didn't want to break up with them, but now they want to trap me here with a formation. They underestimate me too much." Shi Chen said.

After exiting the Immortal Inn and standing on the main road in front of it, Shi Chen activated his spiritual energy and shouted, "I'll stand here. I'll give you a quarter of an hour to set up the formation. All cultivators in the market, you only have a quarter of an hour to leave. If you don't leave after a quarter of an hour, I'll go to the Qingxuan Sect!"

Shi Chen's voice reverberated through the market like a resounding bell, instantly causing a commotion. The cultivators in the market were all stunned, and then, like a boiling pot, they began to move in panic.

The monks who had been selecting items in the shop quickly put down their treasures, paid their bills, and rushed out. Some monks even asked those around them about the situation as they ran, their faces filled with panic.

Some monks who were trading also stopped immediately, collected their items, and quickly ran out of the market. Their faces were full of anxiety, afraid of being dragged into this unknown dispute.

The independent cultivators who had set up stalls on the roadside were scrambling to pack up their stalls, some even turning around and running without even bothering to take care of their small belongings. They didn't want to suffer any unforeseen disaster from this sudden change.

There were also some monks with lower cultivation levels, their faces pale with fear, their steps stumbling. They followed the crowd closely, trying to find a safe way out.

At that moment, the entire market town was plunged into chaos. People were pushing and shouting, scrambling to escape this place that was about to become a scene of chaos.

However, there were also some brave and curious monks. Although they also moved away for a distance, they did not go far, but hid in the distance and watched, wanting to see how this impending conflict would develop. Their eyes were filled with tension and anticipation, worried about being affected, but also eager to witness a wonderful duel.

A casual cultivator who had reached the Perfect Foundation Establishment stage in the distance looked at the blue-shirted and grey-robed cultivator standing alone in the middle of the avenue, brimming with confidence. He was surprised and asked the cultivator beside him, "Fellow Daoist Li, I'm new here. This senior in the middle of the avenue acted like this in the market outside the Qingxuan Sect. I'm afraid..."

Before he could finish his words, the cultivator named Li beside him covered his mouth and dragged him into the nearest teahouse. He looked around and saw that no cultivators were paying attention to them. Then he gently held his ear and said, "Brother Yu, keep your voice down. You're new here, but you don't know. He's a famous cultivator in the Qingxuan Sect. He defeated the three elders of the Qingxuan Sect and escaped unscathed, leaving behind a formation. It wasn't until two years ago that the Qingxuan Sect's Grand Elder came out of seclusion and removed the formation."

"Is it true or false?" The cultivator surnamed Yu was so shocked that he didn't even push away the hand blocking his mouth before asking in surprise. After pushing away the hand blocking his mouth, he whispered, "The Qingxuan Sect was slapped in the face, and they can still bear it?"

"This cultivator's name is Shi Chen. He was a disciple of Qingxuan Sect before. I heard from Qingxuan Sect that he did not abide by the sect's rules and acted recklessly, so he was expelled from the sect. However, we, the independent cultivators outside, don't know who is right and who is wrong." said the cultivator named Li.

"Tell us quickly about the deeds of this senior." The cultivator surnamed Yu stared at Shi Chen and asked in surprise.

"I just heard some of it from hearsay. Just listen to me..." The cultivator surnamed Li told some of the rumors he had heard in the past two years, mainly the negative propaganda of Qingxuan Sect, which was to tarnish Shi Chen's reputation and elevate his own sect.

"If Brother Rudao says so, then it's not Shi Chen's fault. Then why is he still standing here so confidently?" said the cultivator named Yu.

"Two years ago, the former leader of Qingxuan Sect, Fang Huan, and the third elder came back from their outing and had a big fight with Qingxuan Sect. In the end, they had to leave Qingxuan Sect and chose to go far away to Yuanling Continent. It is said that they are now in Dayu Continent, the first front line between humans and sea monsters. Alas!" The cultivator named Li sighed when he said the last part.

Only he himself knew that the market outside the Qingxuan Sect, headed by Fang Huan, was a holy place for independent cultivators in the cultivation world.
