“Hehe.” Faced with Pei Xuanjing•s attitude, Zhao Baiyang didn’t seem a bit angry,

He still wore a smile, speaking kindly: “Brother Pei, why the need for such hostility?”

Hearing him speak like this, even Yu Yiyao standing behind him couldn’t help but slightly glance over.

Her Grandmaster usually holds absolute authority within the sect, where no one can defy his orders, not even the elders and Supreme Elders.

But today, her Grandmaster seemed like a completely different person. She had rarely seen him this gentle.

Pei Xuanjing did not immediately take action. This Zhao Baiyang was among the most terrifying opponents he had ever faced. Even his current self was not entirely confident of victory.

So, he was slowly gathering his strength, talking to the opponent at the same time, using this to buy some time.

“I wonder, did you come here today for me?” he asked. Zhao Baiyang shook his head: “I came for them.”

He pointed to the five burly men standing nearby.

“These five men stole a treasure from my Mire Sect, forcing me to personally deal with it.” Even before Zhao Baiyang had finished speaking, the group of men were already cursing aloud.

“Shameless!”

“Distorting right and wrong, utterly disgraceful.”

“You, from the Mire Sect, attacked us to seize our treasures, and now you accuse us falsely. How utterly vile. ”

Cut off by Maitreya Sect Leader, Zhao Baiyang himself, these men knew they couldn’t escape today and fought restraining themselves, showing no fear of the opponent.

But Zhao Baiyang, in response to their curses, did not retort. He flicked his robe, and his energy shot out.

Puff!

The man who cursed the loudest was struck directly and spat out blood.

“You…”

“Did you think I, the Sect Leader, am easy to talk to?” Zhao Baiyang said coldly. He treated Pei Xuanjing cordially because his strength was worthy of respect.

But these few homeless dogs dared to talk nonsense in his presence.

Pei Xuanjing was unmoved by this, he continued to look coldly at the opponent.

The man in the lead, seeing Zhao Baiyang’s action, had his slightest hope extinguished.

A determined look flashed in his eyes, he suddenly turned to Pei Xuanjing and said, “Grandmaster Pei, we are the Five Envoys from the Holy Flame Sect. We are being pursued by these two today because they want to seize our sect’s treasure, the Sacred Fire Order. Today, I’m willing to offer this treasure as a gift to you, in return for your help in saving us.”

The man, seeing no way out, directly revealed everything in hopes of trading it for a chance at survival.

“The Holy Flame Sect, Sacred Fire Order!” Upon hearing this, Pei Xuanjing understood their origins.

The Holy Flame Sect, also known as Mani Sect, has another name – Ming Jiao.

It’s part of the White Lotus Sect lineage, having integrated itself into the White Lotus Sect over countless years.

There were even rumors that the current Emperor of the Great Ming was once a member of the Holy Flame Sect, but this rumor was unverifiable.

Pei Xuanjing had also heard of the Sacred Fire Order that the other party mentioned. The Order was forged from extraterrestrial meteorite iron and mysterious white gold iron, incredibly tough. In terms of hardness, it could be on par with the average Ten Thousand -Forged Divine Weapon, and there were a total of six pieces, each differing in size, translucent but not completely transparent. The Order seemed to contain soaring flames, with changing colors.

The most important point was that the few Sacred Fire Orders were inscribed with the Holy Flame Sect’s unparalleled martial art, incredibly valuable, and can be said to be supreme treasures.

Their self-proclaimed title of the Five Envoys, were actually the powerful figures from the East, South, West, North and Central regions within the Holy Flame Sect.

Pei Xuanjing had long known that there were numerous internal disputes within the White Lotus Sect, but he didn’t expect to encounter one himself.

“Are you seeking death?” Yu Yiyao’s eyes flashed ominously.

She couldn’t believe these men would be so forward. They had been pursued for months and refused to hand over the Sacred Fire Order. But to save their lives, they would willingly turn it over to Pei Xuanjing, rather than give it to her.

“Hehe!” The Five Envoys sneered in response.

Rather than trusting them, it would be better to try their luck. At least, Pei Xuanjing•s reputation was much better than the Mire Sect’s.

“Brother Pei, are you really going to be duped by these men?” Zhao Baiyang’s expression changed slightly.

Everyone could tell what these men were trying to do and he didn’t believe that the other party would fall for it so easily.

“I think this deal’s not bad.” A smile appeared on Pei Xuanjing’s face.

He was curious about the treasure – the Sacred Fire Order. Even with just the martial arts engraved on it, it would provide him with many Taoyun values.

Of course, he could see through the underlying intent of the Five Envoys, but so what?

He already held significant enmity with the Mire Sect, adding one more grudge hardly mattered.

Moreover, since Zhao Baiyang appeared here today, fighting was inevitable. If he could take this opportunity to give his foe a headache, why not?

“Brother Pei, this is an internal matter of the White Lotus Sect, are you really going to involve yourself?” Zhao Baiyang’s face turned slightly cold, his voice carrying a threat.

He was right, internal strife within the White Lotus Sect did exist, but if a treasure like the Sacred Fire Order fell into someone else’s hands, other branches of the sect might take action.

“If I don’t get involved, would the Mire Sect not attack me?” Pei Xuanjing sneered.

Many Mire Sect masters had died by his hand. He didn’t believe they would let it go so easily.

To his surprise, Zhao Baiyang said, “If you leave today, Brother Pei, we will let bygones be bygones. You will have nothing more to do with our Mire Sect.” “Hmm?” Pei Xuanjing was somewhat surprised.

Only to hear Zhao Baiyang continue, “Don’t you trust me?”

He was telling the truth. He had secluded himself for a long time, cultivating, and Gong Xingqiu, the deputy sect leader, had always been insincere to him, which he was unhappy about.

One could say, Pei Xuanjing killing Gong Xingqiu was indirectly helping him eliminate a rival, which was why he did not directly engage him today.

“I don’t trust you!” Pei Xuanjing shook his head.

Seeing Pei Xuanjing’s reaction, Zhao Baiyang’s face also darkened. After all, he was a supreme leader, and he had given enough face to the other party. If the other party refused to appreciate his kindness, he wouldn’t continue to be patient.

He said, “I’ve heard a bit about Brother Pei’s Sword Drawing Skill. It looks like today I’ll have the pleasure of witnessing it firsthand.”

A smile flashed across Pei Xuanjing’s face, “I’m also looking forward to seeing your great techniques.” With his energy fully gathered, Pei Xuanjing added, “If you can take this sword, then we can discuss.”

“Okay!” Zhao Baiyang agreed. He said to Yu Yiyao, “You should step back a bit.”

Yu Yiyao nodded and quietly stepped away.

As for the rest of the crowd, they didn’t need to be told to back away, they all silently retreated.

Clang!

The sword light flashed, Pei Xuanjing•s Shenxiao Sword was drawn from its sheath. The immense sword intent converged together, heading straight for Zhao Baiyang..
