Chapter 1880: A Stunning Performance!

"Reporting to the Sect Leader, representatives from the Heavenly Demon Sect, Nine Dragon Valley, and Ten Thousand Demon Sect have arrived! They are waiting outside the mountain gate!"

As soon as Lin Jichen appeared in the main hall, a disciple came in to report.

Upon hearing that the Demonic Sect had arrived, everyone in the hall looked surprised, but quickly calmed down.

Even demons and ghosts can come, so it's not too surprising that the Demon Sect is sending people.

Lin Jichen remained expressionless and said, "Please let them in."

Soon, hundreds of demon sect leaders arrived. Apart from the three super demon sects, the rest were sect leaders or top combatants of first-class demon sects.

If this group of people had appeared in other parts of the Eight Desolations, it would have caused a major earthquake in the entire human realm, and the righteous world would have thought that the war between good and evil was about to begin again.

Fortunately, their presence here relieved everyone present, even those from small sects, from being too nervous.

Even when they saw big shots like Dongfang Ji, Li Changsheng, and Situ Haokong, they just pursed their lips and didn't take it seriously.

Just kidding, the Demonic Sect is now in its twilight years and is far from what it used to be.

Since the Ghost Hall was destroyed by the Sword Sect, the gap in strength between the Demon Sect and the Orthodox Sect has become quite obvious.

After all, it used to be the Four Super Orthodox Sects versus the Four Super Demonic Sects, and the strength of both sides was roughly equal.

However, due to the existence of Leng Feiyan, the authentic lineage has been slightly superior for the past few hundred years, but it's not that exaggerated.

Because Leng Feiyan only focuses on cultivation and is not good at expanding the sect's strength, unless someone provokes the Sword Sect, or a notorious force or sect appears, the Sword Sect will not hesitate to eliminate it.

Overall, although the Sword Sect is strong, it has always been relatively low-key. Like the Putuo Temple, it belongs to the low-key group that focuses on cultivation and is not good at interpersonal relationships.

During this period, the Demonic Sect was quite active. This can be seen from the fact that Luo Canghai dared to lay his pawns in the Tianyan Sword Sect. At that time, the Demonic Sect was not afraid of the Tianyan Sword Sect. They even thought that the Sword Sect was easy to bully.

Luo Canghai, in particular, was extremely ambitious. Many years ago, he secretly harmed Chu Xinqin and kidnapped the two babies in her womb. He took one of them and raised it to be a witch, while he released the other into the Sword Sect so that she could become his confidante or even the successor of the Sword Sect.

Back then, Leng Feiyan was far from having the strength she has now. The Tianyan Sword Sect was under the control of Leng Feiyan's father, whose strength was only about the same as Yuan Tianjian's, and he had even failed to transcend the tribulation and ascend to immortality.

Back then, Luo Canghai was only at the Enlightenment Realm, which wasn't very powerful, so he didn't take Leng Feiyan seriously at all.

With Leng's father dead, Luo Canghai's ambition became uncontrollable. He wanted to take over the Sword Sect effortlessly by substituting one person for another!

But he never expected that Leng Feiyan's talent was so extraordinary that she became the number one in the world in just a hundred years!

However, he was not afraid, feeling that their Demon Sect was not weak either, and there was no need to fear Leng Feiyan.

Moreover, if it weren't for Lin Jichen's appearance, no one would have known about his conspiracy.

He believed that Leng Feiyan, who was obsessed with cultivation, couldn't possibly know.

All we need to do is wait for Chu Tianhan to take the throne of sect leader, then join forces with both internal and external forces to annex the Tianyan Sword Sect in one fell swoop.

This plan can be described as perfect.

Unfortunately, they ran into Lin Jichen, that troublemaker!

The plan fell apart, Chu Tianhan's identity was exposed, and this kid was even able to instigate almost all the major righteous sects in the Eight Desolations and Four Continents to join forces and come to his Ghost Soul Palace to wipe them out.

Knowing this, he dared to say that no one in the world could do it.

Because in the Eight Desolations, every race basically fights its own battles, distrusts each other, and only cares about its own interests.

Even the Buddhist community, which talks about saving all sentient beings and subduing demons, would never actually send someone to risk their life to fly millions of miles away to exorcise demons.

To put it bluntly, the path of cultivation is all about cultivation level and benefits. Who would be willing to do something so thankless and foolish if there were no benefits, resulting in a lose-lose situation, and potentially being taken advantage of by others?

Therefore, before Lin Jichen appeared, any force or sect in the world was considered an independent entity, even if they were in the same state, let alone four states.

But Lin Jichen alone accomplished an unprecedented feat: he, a mere disciple, managed to persuade Leng Feiyan, the sect leader, to mobilize the entire sect for a long-distance campaign.

What's even more outrageous is that he can not only mobilize his own sect, but other sects also cooperate with him.

He named all four super sects, including the Xuan Yi Sect, the Yuan Ji Fa Sect, and the Chi Yan Quan Sect.

Even Cihang Jing'an has come out.

In addition, there are countless other top-tier sects.

He mobilized 80% of the entire righteous forces.

Otherwise, his Ghost Palace wouldn't have been wiped out.

Lin Jichen can command and lead most of the orthodox forces at will, and he even has connections with the demon and ghost races! It's outrageous! Utterly outrageous!

This is also what other demonic sects fear most: unparalleled social skills! They're so charming!

He's completely cheating; anyone who didn't know better would think he was the leader of the Eight Desolations Alliance.

After the Ghost Palace was destroyed, all factions within the Demonic Sect became completely obedient and lived timidly.

Now, needless to say, Lin Jichen broke through to the Feather Transformation Realm, even crossing two realms. As soon as this news reached the Demon Sect, they knew that the Demon Sect would have no chance of rising again for at least a thousand years.

It's not surprising that they were willing to come. They were already wary of Lin Jichen's strength, and now with the addition of Zhu Jiuyin, if they didn't come, Lin Jichen might use them as a scapegoat to deal with external threats, which would be disastrous.

These demonic sect guests had actually arrived earlier, but fearing conflict with the righteous sects, they deliberately arrived just in time.

Upon arrival, they didn't dare to be arrogant and quietly sat down in the seats that had been arranged in advance.

Lin Jichen did not discriminate against anyone, but ranked them according to the strength of their sects, which made Dongfang Ji and the others feel much better.

Lin Jichen has a good sense of perspective; he didn't ostracize them because of past personal grudges.

"This guy has gotten even more handsome. He's definitely my good brother."

The handsome scholar sitting behind Dongfang Ji looked at Lin Jichen, who was enjoying great success on the stage. Although he expressed jealousy, he secretly wished for him to do the same.

Now, everyone is really here.

Lin Jichen also spoke up.

"Everyone who has come to my Sword Sect is a guest."

"Thank you all for giving me face and coming from afar."

He stood in the main hall, surveying the entire area.

Below, none of the guests remained seated; they all stood up, as if they felt embarrassed to sit down since Lin Jichen hadn't.

"Please take your seats."

After Lin Jichen finished speaking, he took the seat of the sect leader first, and then everyone else sat back down.

This scene made everyone in the Sword Sect smile.

Nangong Wu's beard was practically standing on end.

I wish I could grab a megaphone and yell at them right now: I'm his father-in-law! That's right, Lin Jichen is my son-in-law! I have such good taste! Hahaha!
