Doomed by Fate, My Sect Urges My Comeback - Chapter 182

Bai Roujing spread her arms to block the way. “Why are you all so cowardly? I’m certain the one who scanned us just now was a powerful expert from the Tuo Yue Sect. Otherwise, they wouldn’t have let us off so easily. Since they didn’t stop us, it means they want us to continue.”

“If we go on, we are pledging allegiance to the Tuo Yue Sect. Don’t you want to join a secondtier sect?”

Finally, a middle-aged man stepped forward.

“Miss Bai, we agreed to follow you because we despise the sect’s dictatorship. We hoped to overthrow Tuo Yue Sect’s monopoly on cultivation resources. But now, you want us to pledge allegiance and join them? Isn’t that contradictory?”

“I…”

Bai Roujing took a deep breath.

She quietly asked the system, “My plan is underway. Do you have a way to keep these people safe?”

The system replied, “Host, as long as you complete the tasks properly and earn the rewards, you can do whatever you want afterward.”

“Alright.”

She then addressed the group. “You all know that the sect’s cultivation resources are in the Opportunity Tower. If we want to overthrow the sect, the best way is to infiltrate. Joining a second-tier sect and growing our own strength from within isn’t a bad idea.”

Sure enough, her words convinced them.

Joining a second-tier sect might indeed be a good plan.

Bai Roujing noticed their softened attitudes.

She smiled slightly.

“We’ve already taken some items from the Tuo Yue Sect. Next, we can raise the prices of other items and then take these things to pledge allegiance to the Tuo Yue Sect. If we succeed, your children can train on the ninth floor of the Opportunity Tower. Isn’t that great?”

Listening to Bai Roujing’s words, Mo Yu couldn’t help but admire her knack for persuasion.

But it was a pity; Mo Yu had overheard everything.

And…

She could play the game of sowing discord too.

Mo Yu smiled, her eyes gleaming with a cold light.

Whatever Bai Roujing wanted, she would not let her have it!

The wealthy merchants huddled together, whispering.

Indeed!

They would help raise the prices for the Tuo Yue Sect and then pledge allegiance. It might actually work.

The Tuo Yue Sect was a second-tier sect!

The resources on the ninth floor of the Opportunity Tower were so enticing. Everyone wanted them.

After discussing, the merchants decided to stay for now.

However, their subsequent bids were only meant to raise prices; they had no intention of buying.

The Dark Night Sword, the Red Soul Staff, and the Biyao Armor…

All sold for over twenty million spirit stones each.

Their intent to raise prices was too obvious, making everyone think that these bidders were planted by Wang Zhi. For a moment, all eyes turned to the Tuo Yue Sect.

This time, the Tuo Yue Sect made a fortune.

Wang Zhi happily collected the money and handed a storage bag with ten million spirit stones to Mo Yu.

“Here, some pocket money from your master.”

Mo Yu took the bag. “Thank you, Master.”

“Let’s go; there are more items to auction. Our sect’s disciples’ monthly allowance is finally secure. Later, we’ll buy a large mountain and move our sect headquarters there.”

Wang Zhi, full of ambition, envisioned making their sect bigger and stronger.

They were now a second-tier sect, so their headquarters needed to match that status.

At this moment, there was a knock on the door.

It was the auction house manager. “Sir, some people wish to see you.”

Wang Zhi raised an eyebrow. “People from the Shui Yun Sect? I won’t see them!”

“No,” the manager hurriedly replied, “It’s the guests from Box Eight.”

“Oh?”

Kong Jin said, “They probably want to gain favor. These people have money and might support our sect.”

Mo Yu stepped forward. “Master, leave them to me.”

Wang Zhi was surprised that his usually lazy disciple volunteered.

“Haha, fine, it’s up to you.”

When the door opened, a few men in black robes walked in. Once inside, they removed their disguises and respectfully bowed to Wang Zhi.

“Senior, we were the ones bidding against the other sects. We hope the sect profits greatly.”

Clearly, they were here to gain favor.

Wang Zhi looked at Mo Yu.

Mo Yu said, “If you want to join our sect, each family must pay fifty million spirit stones annually.”

Straight to the point!

Wang Zhi grinned widely.

His little disciple was impressive.

Fifty million spirit stones!

While it wasn’t a huge amount for them, paying every year made them hesitate.

“Um…”

A middle-aged man asked hesitantly, “Do we have to pay every year? What if our family businesses don’t do well? Will we be expelled from the sect?”

Mo Yu smiled meaningfully.

“As long as you are loyal, your family’s disciples will gain many opportunities. But if you are found to have disloyal intentions, your entire family will suffer.”

Her voice was low and full of threat.

These words, laden with pressure, were like heavy hammers striking their consciousness.

Someone couldn’t withstand the pressure and groaned, blood trickling from his mouth.

Everyone quickly lowered their heads. “Loyalty, we will remain loyal. You have our word.”

At that moment, Du Tuo raised his hand, and his powerful spiritual force made them feel as if they had plunged into an ice cave, their blood frozen.

That terrifying feeling again!

They looked at Du Tuo in panic.

So, it was him who had exerted the pressure earlier!

In the presence of an absolute expert, their bravado turned into fear.

Too powerful!

The sect was truly formidable!

“This, this person’s cultivation is…” a man in fine clothes asked, his voice trembling.

Wang Zhi laughed. “Just a Tribulation Transcendence Phase. No need to be shocked.”

“Tri…Tribulation Transcendence?”

The man’s face turned pale.

To them, Golden Core Phase and Nascent Soul Phase were already powerful. Now, a Tribulation Transcendence Phase expert was here.

“Lord.”

The man’s legs gave way, and he knelt down. “Please forgive us for raising the prices without your permission. We obtained items from the Tuo Yue Sect, and we will offer them to you. Please accept them.”

He respectfully offered the Dark Night Sword with both hands.

Wang Zhi and Du Tuo exchanged smiles, then looked at Mo Yu.

Mo Yu waved her hand dismissively. “No need, you can keep the items.”

She wanted to see if Bai Roujing and these people would turn against each other.

“Yes!”

Wang Zhi and Du Tuo weren’t interested in these people. After giving Mo Yu a few instructions, they left with the spirit stones.

Rebuilding the sect required many things to be done. They needed to integrate the forces and families that supported them and organize a team to gather resources from the Opportunity Tower.
