Tu Zheng and the others returned to the Ghost Controlling Sect.


    Their expressions were dull and dazed. They couldn’t remember what had happened at all, the only thing present was the malice flickering in their eyes.


    On their way back to the main hall, the group encountered Jiang Chen.


    At that moment, Jiang Chen was bullying a disciple from the Demonic Sect whileughing boisterously.


    Seeing Tu Zheng, the disciple immediately went up toin, “Sect Master, Jiang Chen beat me up! I just said that although we are from the Demonic Sect, cultivators should act in ordance with heaven, and he beat me up for that! And he hit me really hard!”


    Act in ordance with heaven?


    These four words made Tu Zheng and the others look coldly upon hearing them.


    They didn’t know why, but they found these words extremely grating!


    “He hit you, why didn’t you hit back?” Tu Zheng asked coldly.“…I couldn’t beat him!” the disciple said with a wronged face.


    “You couldn’t beat him and you still have the nerve toin? How can my Ghost Controlling Sect have such a spineless disciple?!” Tu Zheng was furious.


    Then, with a p, he crushed theining disciple on the spot!


    “!!!”


    This scene terrified everyone around.


    Although the Demonic Sect practiced thew of the jungle, there were still rules.


    Even the sect master couldn’t just kill a disciple so casually! Especially not in front of everyone!


    Soon, several elders from the Hall of Enforcement came forward, and upon seeing Tu Zheng, they eximed in shock, “Sect Master, something is wrong with you! Your eyes are full of murderous intent, you might be possessed by demons!”


    “How dare you!” Tu Zheng roared in anger.


    “How dare you nder me? Today, I will make your blood spill right here!”


    With that said, Tu Zheng killed several Hall of Enforcement elders with a few ps…


    “How audacious!”


    A Supreme Elder appeared, hovering in the sky and rebuking, “Tu Zheng! Do you no longer wish to be the sect master?”


    “I’ve long since not wanted to be!”


    Tu Zheng’s face twisted with rage.


    “What’s the point of being the sect master? Every day, I have to take the me for you old people! I will overthrow this Ghost Controlling Sect today!”


    As he spoke, he charged toward the Supreme Elder.


    It was clear he also wanted to kill the Supreme Elder with a p.


    “Have you gone mad?!” Seeing this, the Supreme Elder was horrified.


    Ovee with murderous rage, Tu Zhengpletely lost his reason and, while attacking, shouted, “You’re the one who’s mad, your whole family has gone mad!!”


    Hearing this, the Supreme Elder was infuriated and immediately engaged in a fierce battle with Tu Zheng.


    Tu Zheng was no match and was soon knocked to the ground, his eyes filled with unwillingness and his murderous intent even stronger.


    “Tu Zheng, surrender!”


    The Supreme Eldermanded from above, his deep voice echoing around, “Do not attempt to resist, or you will be executed on the spot! Do not struggle, for this is your fate!”


    Fate?


    This word instantly pricked Tu Zheng’s nerves.


    Although he didn’t know why… it also pricked the nerves of the hundreds of disciples who had witnessed the memories of nine lifetimes.


    Quickly, these disciples gathered around Tu Zheng, ring angrily at the Supreme Elder in the sky.@@novelbin@@


    The atmosphere became tense and charged with emotion.


    Seeing this, the Supreme Elder in the sky swallowed hard, not understanding how he had stirred up a ho’s nest.


    Suddenly, Gao Long, the third true disciple, leaped up, sword in hand, shing toward the Supreme Elder in the sky.


    “My fate is mine to control, not heaven’s!”


    Other disciples and elders followed suit, leaping up with various spiritual weapons in hand.


    This sight made the Supreme Elder’s scalp tingle.


    After pping away Gao Long, who was the first to rush at him, the Supreme Elder immediately fled.


    It wasn’t that he couldn’t beat them, but rather that the sight of madmen was too terrifying!


    Moreover, as the saying goes, thew does not punish the masses. He couldn’t possibly kill hundreds of people, could he?


    “Hahaha!” Tu Zheng felt a great sense of satisfaction.


    Feeling that this was not enough to vent his anger, he raised his arm and shouted, “We should go to the Old Ancestor and demand an exnation! Even if we die, we must defy the heavens and resist!”


    “Oh——!”


    Upon hearing this, the disciples of the Ghost Controlling Sect roared in unison.


    Then, led by Tu Zheng, they marched mightily towards the residence of the Old Ancestor of the Ghost Controlling Sect.


    Only Jiang Chen remained in ce,pletely bewildered.


    What was going on? He had simply been unable to hold back and bullied a Ghost Controlling Sect disciple, but how did that escte into such chaos?


    And how did so many people in the Ghost Controlling Sect suddenly go mad?!


    “This shouldn’t have anything to do with me…. right?” he muttered to himself.


    Elsewhere, at the residence of the Old Ancestor of the Ghost Controlling Sect, she was feeling anxious because the number of madmen in the Ghost Controlling Sect was increasing.


    This situation reminded her of a rumor.


    The Jiuyan Sect had also gone mad like this in the past, one after another, until it became a Demonic Sect.


    She felt she had been too hasty. She had thought that the Ghost Controlling Sect, being a Demonic Sect, wouldn’t mind the trouble, but who knew that Jiang Chen would cause such amotion in just over ten days and turn the Ghost Controlling Sect upside down?


    She had thought that since the Ghost Controlling Sect was already a Demonic Sect, it naturally wouldn’t fear bing one.


    But who would have thought that at this rate, it would be a mad sect!


    “Could Jiang Chen be poisonous?” the Old Ancestor murmured to herself.


    Then she thought she might be overthinking it.


    After all, even if the Jiang family was powerful, they couldn’t drive a sect mad in such a short time, could they?


    Moreover, although there were many mad disciples, it was not enough to shake the foundation of the Ghost Sect. They were still under control.


    “But this kid is indeed a bit dangerous. Perhaps I should reconsider letting him join the Ghost Controlling Sect,” the Old Ancestor muttered again.


    Just as she finished speaking, a Supreme Elder arrived in haste, saying, “Old Ancestor, it’s bad! Tu Zheng has gone mad! Leading a group of equally mad disciples, they are on their way here! By the looks of it, they are nning a rebellion!”


    “What?!” The Old Ancestor was so shocked that she jumped up!


    She had been busy thinking and hadn’t noticed the situation inside the Ghost Controlling Sect.


    She could never have imagined such a turn of events!


    Tu Zheng had gone mad, too, and was leading disciples in a rebellion?


    What was going on? Was it that she couldn’t wield the knife anymore, or had Tu Zheng gone mad with power?


    “Old Ancestor, that Jiang Chen is a disaster!” the Supreme Elder was almost in tears.


    “The rumors are true! Wherever he goes, madness follows! I think we should quickly expel him from the sect!”


    “What’s the rush?!” the Old Ancestor red.


    “Judging by the time, the Supreme Great Elder should have already arrived at the Ghost Ridge Soul Abyss. Our sect’s battle with the Jiuyan Sect is imminent and cannot be avoided!”


    “Now, if we drive Jiang Chen away and he returns to the Jiuyan Sect, won’t we be restrained by the Jiang family and unable to act freely?” she added.


    “Uh…”


    Supreme Elder was left speechless, unable to retort.


    “They’re just a bunch of lunatics. I can suppress them with a flip of my hand. The same old saying goes, no matter how troublesome Jiang Chen is, could he possibly bring about the destruction of our sect?” the Ghost Controlling Old Ancestor added.


    Supreme Elder felt there was some truth to this.


    But for some reason, he always felt a sense of unease in his heart, so he asked, “What if… what if it really happens?”


    The Ghost Controlling Old Ancestor fell silent.


    Those two words, “what if,” started to make her feel uneasy too!


    “I’ll go suppress those lunatics first. All you Supreme Elders, stay close to Jiang Chen in the meantime. That way, there will be absolutely no mistakes.” she ordered after some thought.


    Named aspanionship, but in reality, it was surveince.


    She refused to believe it.


    With such strict precautions, Jiang Chen surely couldn’t cause any more trouble.


    The arriving Supreme Elder also felt very reassured and finally let out a long sigh of relief.
