TO ACHIEVE IMMORTALITY, I CULTIVATE USING QI LUCK

Chapter 1199: Chapter 479 Immortal Monster Reaction_3 Chapter 1199: Chapter 479 Immortal Monster Reaction_3 The Changqing Immortal Sect truly has effective control only over the core thirteen nations near the Mountain Gate.

With past examples in mind, Zhang Yunlei couldn’t help but wonder whether this foreign Immortal Sect, like those monsters and demons, coveted Youxin Country?

‘Furthermore, the strength of this unfamiliar Immortal Sect is unknown.

If there are no Immortals, it would be fine; introducing a third power into the mix would just drag them into the fray, offsetting those monsters and demons.

Thus, the situation in Youxin Country could be maintained.

But if they were to deploy Immortals, then Youxin Country might truly slip from the grasp of our Changqing Immortal Sect.

However, even if it were to break away, in the end, Youxin Country would still fall into the hands of an Immortal Sect of the Human Race, and the tens of millions of citizens within might still be spared their lives.

They wouldn’t fall to the monsters and demons’ schemes, which could also be considered fortunate.’

Zhang Yunlei sighed in his heart, feeling quite pessimistic about the future of the sect in Youxin Country.

Nevertheless, no matter what.

As the ostensible ruler of Youxin Country and also a cultivator of the Immortal Sect, he must take a stand regarding the Immortal Sect from the City of Yunlan that had suddenly entered the fray.

After contemplating, Zhang Yunlei summoned the head of the East Courtyard to discuss the matter.

Within Youxin Country, the Changqing Immortal Sect had established branch residences, with the heads of each residence referred to as mansion lords, with Zhang Yunlei himself serving as one.

Beneath the mansion lord, there were the North and West Courtyards, each governing the northern and western regions of the country, acting as deputies to the mansion lord.

Actually, according to the usual customs of the sect, there were originally four courtyards in Youxin Country: East, West, South, and North.

But among them, the head of the East Courtyard, along with the former mansion lord—the Garrison Immortal of the Changqing Immortal Sect in Youxin Country—had been killed in a grievous battle against the monsters.

And the head of the South Courtyard, Zhang Yunlei himself, was hastily promoted to mansion lord, which led to the control of the South Courtyard slipping away without a cultivator of the Five Qi Towards Primordial to suppress it, and hence it was abolished.

Therefore, within Youxin Country, aside from the mansion lord residing in Shanheshi, only the North and West Courtyards remained.

Currently, due to the siege of Sanhe City by a multitude of demons, the heads of both the North and West Courtyards had come to help, and were now in the city.

As a result, when Zhang Yunlei issued his summons, Yao Chaoyun, the head of the West Courtyard, quickly arrived.

“Greetings, Fellow Disciple.”

Though Yao Chaoyun and Zhang Yunlei did not share the same Master, both were disciples of the same generation within the sect and addressed each other as fellow disciples.

“Yao Fellow Disciple has arrived.”

Zhang Yunlei gave a slight nod when the other arrived then relayed the situation regarding the City of Yunlan, making sure his fellow disciple understood the situation.

He concluded with, “With a foreign Immortal Sect coming to Youxin Country, whether we’re willing or not, we must respond.

Therefore, I wish to send you as a Messenger on behalf of our branch and the sect, to go to the City of Yunlan to meet the main authorities of that Immortal Sect and determine their intentions.

We need to see their attitude toward our branch, whether it’s good or bad so that we can prepare accordingly.”

Zhang Yunlei looked apologetically at his fellow disciple.

This diplomatic mission was not a pleasant one.

If the unfamiliar Immortal Sect from the City of Yunlan harbored good intentions, then all would be well.

But if they had evil intentions, then Yao Chaoyun’s trip to the City of Yunlan could be walking right into a trap, possibly never to return.

If it weren’t for his position as mansion lord, with responsibilities to the sect’s overall situation in Youxin Country, he would have definitely gone himself.

But necessity demands, and burdened with heavy responsibilities, Zhang Yunlei could not afford to take risks.

So now, he could only ask Yao Chaoyun, a fellow disciple of significance, to take his place and make the journey.

Having heard the whole story and been entrusted by his senior fellow disciple, Yao Chaoyun couldn’t help but frown, “Going on a mission to City of Yunlan is not a problem; for the sake of the sect, I am willing to take this risk.

However, senior brother, if the worst scenario you predicted comes true and there are Immortals in City of Yunlan, how should I deal with them?

Is Youxin Country really going to be handed over to them?”

Yao Chaoyun had been guarding Youxin Country for four hundred years.

He was even born in Youxin Country.

With the strength of a Five Qi Towards Primordial cultivator and a lifespan of eight hundred years, almost half of his life had been spent here.

After the previous estate master fell, Yao Chaoyun, along with fellow disciples like Zhang Yunlei, had propped up the sect and the Human Race’s presence in this region.

In the three hundred years, day and night, he had racked his brains on how to repel demons and preserve the territory.

It had nearly become his life’s work.

Therefore, he had quite an attachment to this land, and he really didn’t want to give it up to outsiders.

“If it really comes to that, Youxin Country will have to be relinquished.”

Seeing his junior fellow disciple’s reluctant face, Zhang Yunlei said with a bitter smile, “Actually, after Uncle Yunyang fell, the sect already considered giving up on Youxin Country.

After I took over as the estate master, they even sent messages to ask me if we needed to evacuate.

Because the sect truly had no new Immortals, not even new disciples to send over.

If we were to continue defending, we could only rely on ourselves.

But at that time, the area surrounding Youxin Country was plagued by demons.

If we retreated, it would mean surrendering millions of the common people to the demons, sending them to their doom.

How could I bear to see that happen?

So, in the end, I replied to the sect, presenting the pros and cons, requesting to stay to protect Youxin Country.

But now you see the situation, junior brother.

The foreign demons are becoming more frequent, and they have even banded together to start attacking Sanhe City.

In such a situation, even if we defend to the death, we won’t be able to protect Youxin Country for long.

At the most, in a decade or two, and certainly not more than a hundred years, Youxin Country will fall into the hands of the demons, and the citizens will become food for the demon’s bloodlust.

Rather than let Youxin Country be destroyed by our hands, it’s better to give it up now to that foreign Immortal Sect.

If the other party really has an Immortal to garrison the place, what harm is there in giving Youxin Country to them?

As long as they can protect Youxin and safeguard the tens of millions of people, even if the country is no longer ours, we would still have served the people of Youxin well and lived up to our identities as disciples of the Qing Immortal Sect.”

As a disciple of an Immortal Sect, Zhang Yunlei was indeed a person of firm principles and pure character.

He had not fallen short in any aspect of the moral integrity expected of him.

The conflicts over the Great Tao belong to the Great Tao, but the broader issues of race, the distinction between good and evil, and the right way must not be set aside.

Since he no longer had the ability to protect the millions of people of Youxin Country, to take on the responsibility of subduing demons and securing peace,

he might as well let go and let someone more capable take over.

He couldn’t, out of personal selfishness, drag tens of millions of the Human Race to their death.

If he did so, even if Youxin Country could be temporarily protected, he wouldn’t find peace in his conscience and would fall into a state of self-blame and guilt.

There wouldn’t be the slightest sense of accomplishment.
