CHAPTER 1131: CHAPTER 753: THE HEAVEN ORIGIN SECT MASTER TAKES A DESPERATE GAMBLE

"Sect Master, something terrible has happened. We’ve discovered the body of the great expert from Ten Thousand Demons Valley."

Upon hearing this report from his disciple, the Heaven Origin Sect Master was naturally unwilling to believe it.

He grabbed the disciple by the collar and shouted: "What nonsense are you spouting? How could he possibly be dead?"

The disciple, though frightened, reported truthfully: "But we really found his body, and now it’s like a pile of minced meat, seemingly crushed to death by an extremely powerful force."

Both the Heaven Origin Sect Master and the members of other sects turned pale, standing silently by the side.

After a long while, an elder trembled as he spoke: "How could such a thing happen? Even an expert of the True Demon Realm couldn’t return unharmed. What is the origin of this Eastern Peak Sect?"

At this point, they were already in a panic. They originally thought that inviting a True Demon Realm expert would undoubtedly help them take down the entire Eastern Peak Sect, but now the situation was completely reversed.

What made them even more fearful was that all this happened silently and without notice.

When intercepting supplies, Du Feng and others had escaped with this True Demon Realm expert to an unknown location.

Thus, their disciples and elders didn’t know what really happened.

"Does the Eastern Peak Sect really have such powerful individuals? Or is there some other unexpected factor?"

No matter how they thought of it, this group didn’t dare to imagine that someone within the Eastern Peak Sect could kill an expert of the True Demon Realm.

If so, it would be a fatal blow for them.

To put it bluntly, they might even face the destruction of their sect.

This lesson was extremely heavy for them, making them no longer dare to trouble the Eastern Peak Sect, even acting submissively.

Compared to these sects, Eastern Peak Sect could be said to have gained a major victory this time, establishing their prestige along the way.

Perhaps others didn’t know, but the members of these sects were more aware than anyone else of what transpired.

Just when these sects hadn’t had time to react, they didn’t expect Wang Yang, along with Du Feng and others, to arrive at the gate of the Heaven Origin Sect three days later.

In this operation, Heaven Origin Sect was said to be very proactive, so it was natural for Wang Yang to kill the chicken to scare the monkeys.

"Sect Master, the disciples from the Eastern Peak Sect are here again. This time, they seem to be looking for trouble."

The disciple stumbled in again with a crying tone in his voice.

The Heaven Origin Sect Master’s face turned pale; he didn’t expect them to come so quickly, much faster than he had imagined.

But for the sake of saving face, he walked out of the sect with a forced smile: "Oh, it’s the esteemed disciples from the Eastern Peak Sect. What brings you here?"

Wang Yang squinted at him: "No need for formalities, Sect Master. With everything that’s happened, you must be still in shock, right?"

The Heaven Origin Sect Master smiled awkwardly: "What do you mean by that? I’m not quite sure."

"Understanding is not important. We’ve come this time to ask to borrow some money. What does the Sect Master think?"

Looking at Wang Yang’s expression, the Heaven Origin Sect Master and several elders looked at each other with strange expressions.

"This isn’t borrowing money; it’s clearly a robbery!"

"Isn’t it obvious? They’ve already been rude to us before; how could they genuinely be here just to borrow money?"

These elders understood well that Wang Yang’s visit surely meant no good.

"We, the Heaven Origin Sect, are small and humble, where would we have money? Perhaps you could check elsewhere?"

The Heaven Origin Sect Master, sweating on his forehead, spoke to Wang Yang and the others with a tough face.

Xiu Huang couldn’t stand it anymore and stepped forward to scold: "Why are you all being so wishy-washy? If we ask to borrow money, then lend it to us. Why all this fuss?"

The Heaven Origin Sect Master, on the verge of tears, said: "We really don’t have much money. If you’re truly in need, we can offer some, but more than that, we simply can’t afford it."

Wang Yang, calm and composed, said: "That’s truly a pity. I’ve heard that a lot has happened recently, with many deaths. It might be that next time, your sect will lose a few elders or disciples."

The Sect Master and elders all donned heavy expressions as Wang Yang’s threat was quite apparent.

"Sect Master, what should we do? If we don’t give it, they might come after us."

"Yes, but if we do give, our sect will incur huge losses. We already gave so many spirit stones to the Ten Thousand Demons Valley earlier."

The entire Heaven Origin Sect was caught in a dilemma. Not giving would surely result in heavy losses.

But if they did give, the Heaven Origin Sect would lose considerable resources.

"Everyone, we don’t have that much patience. If you’re going to lend it, hand over the money quickly. If not, we’ll move on to the next sect."

Wang Yang stood with his hands in his sleeves, looking at everyone with a slightly threatening glance.

"I suddenly remembered, in our sect’s treasure vault, there are still some valuables. If you don’t mind, please take them."

Despite the great pain in his heart, the Heaven Origin Sect Master knew.

If they weren’t fed and satisfied, the Heaven Origin Sect surely wouldn’t have good outcomes awaiting them.

Moreover, the Heaven Origin Sect Master was very aware that in this operation, they were extremely proactive.

That’s why they were the first to be targeted by the Eastern Peak Sect, and with such blatant plundering.
