Chapter 1696 - Chapter 1696 Chapter 1693 The Rage of Taiyi Sect_1

Chapter 1696: Chapter 1693: The Rage of Taiyi Sect_1 Chapter 1696: Chapter 1693: The Rage of Taiyi Sect_1 Yang Chen was not familiar with this, but these rules were reasonable and fair. Therefore, he was not surprised.

However, Elder Feng’s words seemed like friendly reminders at first, but Yang Chen still caught some hints of intimidation, revealing some disdain towards him.

Yang Chen didn’t take this disdain to heart. After all, he couldn’t control how others see him, nor would he change his thoughts because of someone else’s ideas.

He clasped his hands and said, “Thank you for the reminder, Elder Feng.”

After saying that, he took the mission plate and left.

Just as Yang Chen left, Elder Feng sneered disdainfully, “A mere newbie disciple dared to take a ninth-level task. What arrogance and ignorance. But what does it have to do with me? It’s even better if he dies outside!”

After saying this, Elder Feng leisurely looked around.

Meanwhile, after accepting the mission, Yang Chen returned to the mansion.

Upon his return, he saw Gu Liushui doing some chores in the courtyard, working diligently.

Seeing this, Yang Chen nodded in satisfaction.

“Young Master!” Gu Liushui noticed Yang Chen’s return and greeted him warmly and immediately.

“Well, Liushui, you have done well!” Yang Chen said slowly, scanning the surroundings before continuing, “There are some things I want to ask you that are not related to the Xuan Dao School. Don’t worry if you don’t know the answers.”

Although Yang Chen said not knowing the answers was fine, Gu Liushui still paid attention, replying softly, “Just ask, Young Master!”

“What do you know about the Purgatory Gate?” Yang Chen asked.

“Purgatory Gate? It is a massive evil cultivation organization, of course I know about it.” Gu Liushui replied in a friendly manner.

Yang Chen stood with his hands behind his back, serious, “Oh? The Purgatory Gate is so famous? What I don’t understand is, according to what I’ve heard and seen before, our Xuan Dao School should be the overlord of Fengyangzhou without any competing sects. So, what’s the deal with Purgatory Gate? It seems that their core disciples and ordinary disciples are not much different from our Xuan Dao School.”

This was what baffled him the most.

If it were really like this, Fengyangzhou should be divided into two, rather than the Xuandao Sect dominating while the Purgatory Gate remained in obscurity.

“Young Master, what you don’t know is that the Purgatory Gate is not just equal to the Xuan Dao School in strength, but even stronger.” Gu Liushui took a breath.

“What? How is that possible?” Yang Chen was shocked, “If it’s stronger than the Xuan Dao School, how could it not dominate Fengyangzhou?”

Gu Liushui explained, “The difference between the Purgatory Gate and the Xuan Dao School is that the latter only occupies Fengyangzhou, while the Purgatory Gate spans across all twelve states. In short, every one of the twelve states has the power of the Purgatory Gate. From this, one can see how big and terrifying its influence is. That’s why its strength in a single state is slightly weaker, but not much.”

Upon hearing this, Yang Chen took a deep breath.

He had not expected that the Purgatory Gate was so powerful.

It seems he was indeed ignorant and inexperienced. He originally thought that the Xuan Dao School already dominated Fengyangzhou, but now it seems that the Xuan Dao School was far from enough in terms of influence.

First, there were the border aliens, and then the Purgatory Gate. With wolves in front and tigers behind, the Xuan Dao School’s situation was not good at the moment.

While thinking about all this, Yang Chen asked, “So, between the Purgatory Gate’s branch here and our Xuan Dao School, who is stronger?”

“Naturally, the Xuan Dao School is stronger, but the local branch of the Purgatory Gate is not bad either. After all, our Xuan Dao School has been attacking the Purgatory Gate for years, but we haven’t shaken the Purgatory Gate’s foundation in Fengyangzhou. Some even say that the Purgatory Gate may not be weaker than our Xuan Dao School, but they just haven’t fought against us yet. If they do fight, the Xuan Dao School may not be their opponent.” Gu Liushui explained.

“Why don’t they fight? If they don’t, does that mean they’re afraid?” Yang Chen asked.

“Young Master, it’s not that simple. The Purgatory Gate is not avoiding a fight with the Xuan Dao School or afraid of it, but they have more enemies than just the Xuan Dao School.” Gu Liushui revealed a smile.

“What do you mean?” Yang Chen blinked.

Gu Liushui explained, “The Purgatory Gate’s enemies are all the legitimate forces in the twelve states, with the Xuan Dao School being merely one of them.”

“What? The Purgatory Gate is so powerful that it takes on the forces of the entire twelve states as enemies? Why? Because they are evil cultivators?” Yang Chen was surprised.

“You could say so. The Purgatory Gate is an evil cultivation organization, and their deeds are utterly heinous, making them intolerable. This has ignited the anger of the twelve states, which in turn caused the full-scale suppression by the Taiyi Sect. When the Taiyi Sect gets angry, the twelve states have to comply, turning the Purgatory Gate into a homeless dog being hunted down by the entire twelve states. However, the Purgatory Gate has indeed an abundant foundation, and even the Taiyi Sect, in alliance with the twelve states, cannot destroy it. Nowadays, the Purgatory Gate is still alive and kicking.” Gu Liushui said.

Yang Chen took a deep breath, “But why have I heard that other evil cultivators receive more tolerance and acceptance? Like the Fierce Ghost Sect, for example …”

“Most evil cultivators, as long as they don’t go too far, are indeed tolerated by the Taiyi Sect and other sects. Most evil cultivators are also very clever and will not cross the line. Although they do heinous things, they are not hateful to the bone. However, the Purgatory Gate is different. What they do has already crossed everyone’s bottom line. They can even harm women and children and unborn children. Despite repeated warnings from the Taiyi Sect, the Purgatory Gate remains lawless, provoking the Taiyi Sect’s anger. This is what they deserve.” Gu Liushui was clearly a righteous person, with no good feelings towards the Purgatory Gate.

Now Yang Chen learned quite a bit about the Purgatory Gate, and it turned out that there was such a story about them.

As he thought, he couldn’t help but ask, “By the way, what kind of force is Taiyi Sect?”

His understanding of the Taiyi Sect started with the Startling Swan Divine Pill.

The Startling Swan Divine Pill was what he saw in the Door of Fortune before he came to Changxing Mountain. Hua Wanru obtained it, and after refining it, she reached the True God Realm. It was clear how extraordinary the Startling Swan Divine Pill was.
