Qu Huachang was imprisoned.
It was a great taboo in the White Lotus Cult to have an infight, let alone kill another Saintess in front of everyone! Everyone knew that if it wasn’t for Qu Huachang who had committed the crime, she would have died long ago.
The White Lotus Mother would not allow anyone in the Sect to challenge her authority. The Saintess were rare talents in White Lotus Cult, and only the Cult Lord had the right to control their lives.
Qu Huachang had undoubtedly crossed the line!
With such a thing happening, the ones who were the happiest were none other than the other Saintess. Everyone felt that no matter how much Qu Huachang was favored in the past, she would no longer be valued by the Cult Lord.
On the other hand, Qu Huachang, who had been imprisoned, was living alone in a dark dungeon. This dungeon was originally the place where Noble Spirit Palace imprisoned its enemies. It was dark, damp, cold, and completely inhumane.
White Lotus Mother also ordered that no one was allowed to visit her, only providing her with some fresh water and a small amount of food every day. As such, no matter how strong Qu Huachang was, if she was imprisoned for too long, she would likely die.
The dungeon was heavily guarded, so Yang Kai couldn’t do anything about it. Although he could force his way in, and he believed that no one would be able to stop him. However, doing so would only bring more trouble to Qu Huachang.
He was waiting for an opportunity.
The opportunity soon arrived.
Noble Spirit Palace's headquarter had been destroyed and White Lotus Cult had taken its place. During that battle, the Seven Great Sects had suffered countless casualties and the survivors had all fled back to their respective Sects to recuperate.
How could the White Lotus Mother let go of this opportunity to beat up a fallen dog? Her dream had always been to unify the world, and now, this was a heaven-sent opportunity. As long as she could clear this obstacle known as the Seven Great Sects, she would be able to accomplish a feat that even the previous Cult Lord of White Lotus Cult had not been able to accomplish for hundreds of years.
Now that the elites of the various great sects had suffered heavy losses, it was a good opportunity to launch a large-scale attack and defeat them one by one.
However, White Lotus Cult was used to being sneaky, so a frontal assault was not their forte. The last time they had managed to take down Noble Spirit Palace's headquarter, they had gained the advantage of many days of peace.
Moreover, in that battle, the White Lotus Cult also suffered heavy losses.
Now that they were about to break through the Seven Great Sects, the White Lotus Mother suddenly fell into an awkward situation where she had no one to rely on!
It wasn’t that her subordinates were all mediocre, but in terms of fighting alone, infiltrating, and assassinating, she still had many elites under her command. However, if she were to assume the role of Commander-in-Chief of an army and coordinate the deployment of troops, those people would not be present.
Now was a rare opportunity. If she missed it, who knows how long she would have to wait for the next opportunity.
Inside the meeting hall, Yang Kai and Xiao He suddenly barged in.
The White Lotus Mother showed a look of displeasure and turned her head, “Left Protector, is there something you need?”
Because of Qu Huachang, the White Lotus Mother didn’t have a good attitude towards Yang Kai during this period of time. The people below were all saying that the reason Qu Huachang acted so boldly was because Yang Kai was standing behind her.
Regardless of whether the rumors were true or not, White Lotus Mother had to act appropriately.
Yang Kai didn’t beat around the bush and went straight to the point, “I ask for 500 people from the Cult Lord, within a month, Lion Building will be destroyed!”
All the Hall Masters were shocked.
Just now, they had been trying to figure out how to attack Lion Building. Among the Seven Great Sects, Lion Building was the weakest and also the easiest to attack, so naturally, they had to pick the weakest ones. This battle was very important, so White Lotus Cult couldn’t afford to lose.
If this battle was successful, White Lotus Cult’s future actions would be like a hot knife through butter. If they were to lose this battle, the advantages they had accumulated before would likely disappear.
However, no matter how they inferred, they felt that if they wanted to break through Lion Building, they would need to rely on their advantage in numbers. At the very least, they would need at least 1500 people to break through, and they would also need to be prepared for heavy casualties.
For Yang Kai to say such a thing right from the start, even though he was the previous Palace Master of Noble Spirit Palace, everyone felt that he was spouting nonsense.
The White Lotus Mother narrowed her eyes slightly and looked at Yang Kai, “What if you can't break it?”
Yang Kai said, “My life is in the hands of the Cult Lord, if I can’t break it, I’ll use my life as compensation!”
The White Lotus Mother’s lips curled up slightly, “You also said that your life is in my hands, so how can i take it as a compensation? If that’s the case, wouldn’t it be too easy for you?”
Yang Kai frowned slightly, “What conditions does Cult Lord have?”
The White Lotus Mother was obviously prepared and could even be said that she was taking advantage of Qu Huachang killing Tian Jie, planning when she was in confinement. Hearing this, she said, “If you lose, Qu Huachang will die!”
For Qu Huachang, Yang Kai was even willing to take the Solidifying Blood Washing Soul Pill and join the White Lotus Cult. The White Lotus Mother believed that as long as she used Qu Huachang as a threat, Yang Kai would not dare to not try his best!
This was also the reason why she didn’t punish Qu Huachang according to the rules of the Sect, only temporarily imprisoning her.
She needed a commander, and Yang Kai had the qualifications to do so, but she didn’t want to take the initiative to ask for it.
Everything was now under her control.
“Good!” Yang Kai nodded, “However, I also ask that Cult Lord agree to my one condition!”
The White Lotus Mother naturally understood his intentions and smiled, “Rest assured, if you can break into Lion Building within a month, this Cult Lord will let bygones be bygones!”
Yang Kai nodded, “Deal!”
“I’ll give you eight hundred men, I want to see the results within a month!” The White Lotus Mother ordered.
The next day, a group of three hundred people set out from the White Lotus Cult’s headquarter and headed straight for Lion Building. Along the way, more disciples joined them, and by the time they arrived at Lion Building’s gate, there were eight hundred of them.
Long ago, in the Star Boundary’s war between the Human and Demon Race, Yang Kai had experience in coordinating and deploying forces. Not to mention eight hundred people, even if it was eighthy thousand, eight hundred thousand, or even eight million, he had once commanded them.
Attacking Lion Building might seem difficult to others, but to him, it was only a matter of time.
With the White Lotus Cult’s army pressing down on them, Lion Building was naturally on high alert. Their gates were tightly shut and there were traps everywhere, waiting for the enemy to fall into their trap.
The eight hundred White Lotus Cult disciples did not immediately attack.
For ten days, Yang Kai and Xiao He, regardless of whether it was day or night, led the masters of White Lotus Cult to launch a continuous assault.
More often than not, several attacks would be launched at the same time, causing Lion Building to become a dilapidated house filled with leaks of wind and rain, making it difficult to guard against White Lotus Cult’s infiltration.
Ten days later, more than three hundred people from White Lotus Cult had been killed, but more than half of Lion Building’s higher-ups had been assassinated. Countless masters had died, and their morale was low.
It was only at this moment that Yang Kai ordered an attack.
The remaining five hundred White Lotus Disciples were like a hot knife cutting through butter as they rushed into Lion Building and fought a bloody battle.
By the time Yang Kai returned to the White Lotus Cult headquarter, it was almost a month later.
The White Lotus Mother was very happy and specially prepared a celebratory feast for Yang Kai. At the banquet, Qu Huachang, who had been locked up for more than a month, also appeared and sat next to the White Lotus Mother intimately, like a mother and daughter.
The destruction of Lion Building was a good start for White Lotus Cult’s unification of the world. In the following three years, White Lotus Cult repeatedly attacked the remaining six great sects, each of them winning and losing, but overall, White Lotus Cult was superior.
Immediately after Lion Building, Shence Mansion, Brushing Willow Monastery, Flying Star Palace, Concealed Sword Villa, and Green Smoke Sect were all destroyed. For a time, White Lotus Cult’s fame was like the sun in the sky, unmatched.
The actions of the people of White Lotus Cult had also reached the point where those who submitted to them would prosper and those who opposed them would die. All the small and medium-sized sects had either fled into the wilderness and hid themselves, or had surrendered.
Of the Seven Great Sects, only one was left, the Grand Battle Sect.
In this chaotic world, heroes emerged, and the Grand Battle Sect Sect produced an incredible figure. It was the personal disciple of the current Sect Master of the Grand Battle Sect, and his name was Lin Taidou. From a young age, he had been brought back to the Grand Battle Sect to be adopted. He was an upright man who abhorred evil. Whether it was his aptitude or comprehension, he was the best.
After cultivating for less than twenty years, Lin Taidou’s strength had already surpassed the previous Sect Master of the Grand Battle Sect. He was only twenty five years old.
The White Lotus Cult's momentum was unparalleled, and their great army was suppressing the Grand Battle Sect. Originally, they had thought they could easily take them down, but now they had encountered an unimaginably fierce battle.
Under Lin Taidou’s leadership, the battle between the Grand Battle Sect and the White Lotus Cult continued for half a year. The White Lotus Cult suffered countless casualties, but none of them succeeded. The White Lotus Mother’s anger soared and she immediately ordered Qu Huachang to take it within three month. If not, there is no need to come back.
White Lotus Mother was not joking. The Grand Battle Sect was White Lotus Cult’s final obstacle to unifying the world. If she could break through the Grand Battle Sect, she would be able to fulfill the unfulfilled wish of the previous Cult Lord for hundreds of years and command all the heroes of the world, so how could she allow such a stumbling block on their way to the peak?
Everyone knew that White Lotus Mother valued Yang Kai’s ability, but when Yang Kai first joined White Lotus Cult, he had said that from then on, he would only listen to one person.
The White Lotus Mother couldn’t directly command Yang Kai, so she could only rely on Qu Huachang.
Yang Kai accepted the order in the face of danger and once again displayed his extraordinary talent and ability to command an army.
After two months, the White Lotus Cult’s army finally entered the Grand Battle Sect and the White Lotus Mother personally took action to kill the Sect Master of Grand Battle Sect.
However, when they investigated the results of the battle, they discovered that many important figures from the Grand Battle Sect had fled, including the young and famous Lin Taidou!
Although the White Lotus Mother had given the order to investigate this matter, she didn’t really care. After all, the Seven Great Sects had been completely destroyed. From now on, in the entire continent, in the Righteous and Evil paths, the White Lotus Cult would reign supreme!
However, a single spark can set a prairie ablaze.
The White Lotus Mother had never thought that the escaping Lin Taidou would bring her so much trouble.
In the following half a year, everyone on the continent lived under the shadow of the White Lotus Cult, and the White Lotus Cult acted without restraint, causing the world to be filled with complaints.
It was at this time that Lin Taidou gathered the remaining members of the Seven Great Sects and called upon some of the more ambitious cultivators to begin his twenty years struggle against White Lotus Cult.
When the Seven Great Sects were exterminated, not everyone was exterminated. There were always some lucky people who managed to escape the net. These people had a blood feud with the White Lotus Cult, so naturally they were determined to take revenge.
