Zhuo Bu’er’s complexion turned deathly pale. Although fifteen sects and forces had acknowledged that they had been approached, no one knew who was taking the lead. But once his soul was searched, he would no longer be able to deny it.
For a moment, Zhuo Bu’er looked at Feng Wanli in horror.
The crowd also turned their gaze to Feng Wanli, with someone pondering, “He seems to be that Feng Wanli from the Taoist Mysterious Sect who ascended a thousand years ago. He actually descended to the Lower World.”
“Is that so? If he makes a move, the soul search will definitely be no problem.”
“Aren’t you guys curious? Senior Feng is an Immortal, but Elder Li is talking to him.Jike he’s giving orders!”
“Right, Elder Li told him to search souls without even saying ‘please.’ This.Js indeed like giving orders, and look, Senior Feng is preparing to search souls.”
As the crowd began to discuss this matter, even if their voices were low, how could they possibly hide it from Feng Wanli?
Feng Wanli knew Li Cheng was intentionally setting a trap, yet he still had to jump into it. With no other choice, he hurriedly said, “Li Cheng, searching souls of the younger generation would damage my reputation. Why not let Artifact Sect compensate your Heavenly Mechanism Sect?”
Li Cheng’s eyes narrowed slightly. “Is that the main point? The main point is that Artifact Sect has been secretly wooing the major forces to destroy my Heavenly Mechanism Sect!”
Feng Wanli nodded, his gaze shifting toward Zhuo Bu’er, “At this point, you’d better just tell the truth. The Heavenly Mechanism Sect hasn’t suffered much loss yet, so there is room for negotiation.”
“Sect Master, this Immortal senior is right. We can’t let Artifact Sect vanish into thin air, right? How would we face our ancestors then?”
“Yes, Sect Master, we might as well come clean. It’s better than having our souls searched to find the truth.”
The remaining few Elders began to persuade him.
Zhuo Bu’er’s ashen face showed intense reluctance before he finally clenched his teeth and said, “Fine then!”

Having said that, Zhuo Bu’er deeply bowed in a salutation to the Demon Sect, Looking Immortal Sect, and others, “Dragging everyone down with us was Artifact Sect’s fault. We hope you can forgive us!”
“Elder Li, it’s all Artifact Sect’s mistake. We should not have coveted the Astonished God Tripod, much less dreamt of annihilating the Heavenly Mechanism Sect. But they were coerced or lured by Artifact Sect, they are innocent. Please let them go!” Zhuo Bu’er bowed again.
“Who among them is innocent? Since they agreed, they should know the consequences they have to bear!” Old Bai snorted coldly.
“Your Artifact Sect secretly approached so many forces. Why did the Bliss Palace, Taming Beast Sect and others not agree, while these did? It is all because of greed, so no, there is no innocence!” Black Elder also said coldly.
Feng Wanli gave a light cough, “Now that things have become clear, Li Cheng, no matter how you want to deal with Artifact Sect, my Taoist Mysterious Sect fully supports you!”
Shentu Feng’s eyes lit up, and he also hastily said, “My Pill Sect also lends its full support!”
The stance of Taoist Mysterious Sect and Pill Sect completely panicked the members of Artifact Sect!
The people of Artifact Sect looked at Feng Wanli. Weren’t you supposed to put in a good word for Artifact Sect according to what you said before?
You mentioned that there was room for negotiation. Were you deceiving us?
“Elder Li, it’s fortunate that the Heavenly Mechanism Sect has resolved the crisis in its early stages, but Artifact Sect has already lost so many people. How about we let bygones be bygones?” A middle-aged man with a longsword strapped on his back clasped his hands together and said.
This tall man, enveloped in Sword Intent, was like a sharp sword ready to be unsheathed at any moment, clearly a Sword Cultivator.
He was the Sect Master of Sword Sect, Jian Nantian.
Jian Nantian continued to say, “Artifact Sect has a twenty-second Tribulation Loose Immortal in retreat. If we continue to entangle and disturb them, it may not end well!”
Li Cheng raised an eyebrow inconspicuously, alright, these guys still didn’t know they had been fooled by Zhuo Bu’er.
A twenty-second Tribulation Loose Immortal, wasn’t that just nonsense Zhuo Bu’er had made up? They believed that?
If there really was one, would they watch so many Loose Immortals being slaughtered by him without a care?
“Elder Li, now that things are settled and Artifact Sect has admitted their fault, continuing to pursue this matter could actually harm the reputation of the Heavenly Mechanism Sect.” Another person advised.
“Who dares to harm my little martial uncle!”
Just then, a roar like thunder came from afar!
Everyone turned their heads in unison to look. From the northern sky, a mighty crowd was rapidly approaching!
Leading was an elderly Loose Immortal, holding a staff, flying at the forefront, followed by thousands of people, all with anxious expressions on their faces!
“Cough, cough… Elder Li, when I saw that you and the two elders were trapped by the formation, our Pill Sect immediately took action and also sent a message to the Heavenly Mechanism Sect!” Shentu Feng explained.
Li Cheng smiled, “That’s good, leave it to them!”
As they were speaking, the people from the Heavenly Mechanism Sect had already arrived, and Li Cheng was somewhat astonished to find that more than forty Loose Immortals had come!
He had not known that the sect actually had so many Loose Immortals; there must be some who had not returned from outside or who couldn’t come because they were in closed-door cultivation.
The rest were from the Transcendance Tribulation Stage, Mahayana Realm, and Fusion Dao stages, adding up to over a thousand people.
Looking at it this way, the Heavenly Mechanism Sect was actually quite strong.
Li Cheng usually spent his time in seclusion and didn’t have much understanding of the Heavenly Mechanism Sect’s strength.
“Junior uncle, are you all right?” Mu Xingzhi was the first to rush up, sizing up Li Cheng from head to toe.
The Loose Immortals were also assessing him, and seeing that Li Cheng’s aura was stable, they finally relaxed.
This was a treasured figure of the sect, and they couldn’t afford to lose him!
“No problem, you’ve come just at the right time, you can take care of the rest!” Li Cheng said.
This kind of thing was something Li Cheng had always been unwilling to waste time dealing with.
“Let me tell you the ins and outs of this matter!” Old Bai stepped forward.
“Li Cheng, if you’re fine, let’s have a chat, you and I!” Feng Wanli saw that Li Cheng was about to leave and quickly went up to him, saying with a beaming smile.
Li Cheng rolled his eyes, “Weren’t you going to return to the Immortal World? Why are you still hanging around in the Kunlun Realm?”
“What’s the rush? I plan to watch the Great Sects Conference first. I haven’t seen such a grand event in tens of thousands of years, and I really miss it!” Feng Wanli laughed.
Li Cheng looked suspicious and shifted his gaze to Feng Wanli, “The Great Sects Conference was brought forward by three years, and I suddenly feel like you’re behind it, aren’t you?”
“Cough, cough… Well, mainly because an Immortal Mansion has appeared!”
He certainly didn’t dare to say it was mainly to invite Li Cheng to the Taoist Mysterious Sect during the Great Sects Conference.
Li Cheng was clearly skeptical, “I’m starting to doubt this so-called ‘appearance of the Immortal Mansion.’ It’s not your Immortal Mansion, is it?”
Since Feng Wanli indirectly admitted that it was his doing, the news about the emergence of the Immortal Mansion was definitely orchestrated by him.
But such a big event definitely couldn’t be faked, so Li Cheng suspected that this guy had offered up his own Immortal Mansion.
The thought alone gave Li Cheng chills, considering that people would fight desperately for a spot to enter the Immortal Mansion, only to find out it had been arranged by this fellow in advance!
Feng Wanli smiled, “Well, that’s what I was planning to do originally, but would you believe it, I actually discovered a real Immortal Mansion!”
“I’m not interested, stop trying to swindle me!”
“You’ll be interested. That Immortal Mansion is no ordinary place. 1 suspect it was left by a certain Immortal Emperor who was slain by Grand Venerable Bai Jie!” Feng Wanli said mysteriously.
“An Immortal Emperor’s Immortal Mansion? That might be worth a look,” Li Cheng stroked his chin.
Feng Wanli secretly breathed a sigh of relief, as this was the reaction he was hoping for.
“It’s also lucky that our Kunlun Realm is out of the ordinary, or else it would’ve been impossible to hide an Immortal Emperor’s Immortal Mansion for a hundred thousand years. So, it’s settled then, we’ll explore it together after the conference!” Feng Wanli said with a smile.
And his words were not untrue. The Kunlun Realm had been in existence for an extremely long time, so long that no one knew the exact amount of time. Such a world had gone through too many eras and witnessed the birth of countless unparalleled powerhouses.
Some have even theorized that the space stability and order of the Kunlun Realm might surpass that of the Immortal World!
The reason being that, billions of years ago, the Order of Heaven and Earth allowed the birth of Immortal Emperors in the Kunlun Realm, and even those surpassing Immortal Emperors.
However, later on, the Order of Heaven and Earth changed, requiring Tribulation Crossing to achieve immortality.
Li Cheng was doubtful, “So we’re not going now?”
You’ve got me all excited, and now you’re telling me to wait two more months?
