BTTH: DISCIPLE CASHBACK SYSTEM

Chapter 366: Xiao Yi Xian Establishes the Poison Sect!

After making this final threat, Xie Shan turned his gaze towards the gathered disciples of the Ten Thousand Scorpion Sect at the mountain’s base and shouted sternly, “All disciples of the Ten Thousand Scorpion Sect, retreat immediately!”

Without waiting to see how the others would react, Xie Shan quickly departed from the scene, his figure flashing away.

The conversation between Xiao Yi Xian and Xie Shan was clearly heard by all the disciples of both the Poison Demon Sect and the Ten Thousand Scorpion Sect. At that moment, the morale of both sides experienced a complete reversal.

“Brothers, the Sect Master of the Ten Thousand Scorpion Sect has fled! Let’s counterattack!”

“Counterattack!”

“Counterattack!”

In an instant, the disciples of the Poison Demon Sect surged with momentum, charging furiously down the mountain. At this moment, more than a dozen elders of the Poison Demon Sect, including Hua An, flew down from the mountain to join the fray.

The Ten Thousand Scorpion Sect disciples who reacted quickly had already scattered and fled, while those who were slower were soon cut down by the Poison Demon Sect.

However, when the Poison Demon Sect disciples surrounded the remaining members of the Ten Thousand Scorpion Sect, they did not choose to exterminate them completely.

Currently, a chaotic battle had erupted among three of the top five sects in the Chu Yun Empire. If both sides suffered massive casualties, not only would the Poison Demon Sect be unable to accept it, but the Chu Yun Empire would also be thrown into turmoil. A prolonged bloodbath would likely set the empire's overall strength back by decades.

Hua An was well aware of this. So, after achieving total victory, he captured all the surviving disciples of the Ten Thousand Scorpion Sect. Their ultimate fate would be decided three days later, depending on whether the Ten Thousand Scorpion Sect or the Poison Demon Sect emerged as the final victor. If the Ten Thousand Scorpion Sect was destroyed, these captives would no longer pose a significant threat and could be allowed to disperse. However, if the Poison Demon Sect were defeated, they would regain their freedom.

After dealing with the captives, Hua An regrouped the remaining members of the Ten Thousand Venom Sect. Upon learning of the Ten Thousand Scorpion Sect's defeat and seeing the burnt carcass of the giant beast with their own eyes, they fully acknowledged the status of the Poison Demon Sect.

This battle had made the Poison Demon Sect the largest sect in the Chu Yun Empire. Now, only the Ten Thousand Scorpion Sect’s Dou Ancestor, Xie Biyan, remained to be dealt with. If he was defeated, the Poison Demon Sect would completely dominate the Chu Yun Empire.

...

Inside the grand hall of the Ten Thousand Venom Sect, Hua An approached Xiao Yi Xian with a respectful expression and said, “Mistress, if you do not wish to rule the Chu Yun Empire, I, Hua An, will not be able to command the masses.”

“You want me to become the ruler?”

Xiao Yi Xian looked surprised at Hua An’s words.

“That’s right. Your strength has been witnessed by the disciples of all three sects. Besides, without your help yesterday, the Poison Demon Sect would have already been destroyed. You taking the position of ruler is well-deserved, and no one would oppose it!” Hua An explained sincerely.

In the Chu Yun Empire, the royal family had never been the most powerful force. Even the Poison Demon Sect or the Ten Thousand Venom Sect could easily crush the royal family. Now that the Poison Demon Sect had absorbed the Ten Thousand Venom Sect and defeated the long-established Ten Thousand Scorpion Sect, there would be no obstacle to ruling the Chu Yun Empire.

“The sect master is right! Lady Heavenly Poison, becoming the ruler of the Chu Yun Empire is the will of the people. I, Huang Dahai, fully support it!”

“Please, Lady Heavenly Poison, accept the position as the ruler of the Chu Yun Empire!”

“Please, Lady Heavenly Poison, take on the role of ruler of the Chu Yun Empire.”

Hearing the voices of others in the hall, a thoughtful look appeared in Xiao Yi Xian’s eyes.

Currently, Xiao Yi Xian was already entangled with the Poison Demon Sect. The upcoming confrontation with the Ten Thousand Scorpion Sect’s ancestor would also require her strength. With her current reputation, taking on the role of ruler was appropriate. Moreover, having this identity would greatly aid her in gathering various poisons and exploring the Poison Saint’s relics.

"Xiao Yin, how long would it take you to return to the Yunlan Sect from the Chu Yun Empire at your fastest speed?"

After contemplating for a moment, Xiao Yi Xian sent a sound transmission to Xiao Yin, asking a crucial question.

Upon hearing Xiao Yi Xian’s question, Xiao Yin extended her small hand and counted on her fingers before slowly replying, “If I travel alone, four days would be enough. But if I bring Sister Xian’er along, it might take five days.”

“Five days! There are less than nine days left before the Alchemist Conference... Looks like this matter with the Ten Thousand Scorpion Sect needs to be resolved quickly.”

With a decision made in her heart, Xiao Yi Xian turned to the Poison Demon Sect's high-ranking members in the grand hall and declared loudly, “Since all of you insist on my appointment, I will not refuse. From today onwards, the Ten Thousand Venom Sect’s headquarters will be renamed the Poison Sect!”

"Greetings to the Sect Master! May the Poison Sect prosper for generations!"

With Xiao Yi Xian accepting their request and announcing the establishment of the Poison Sect, Hua An took the lead in paying respects to Xiao Yi Xian.

"Greetings to the Sect Master! May the Poison Sect prosper for generations!"

"Greetings to the Sect Master! May the Poison Sect prosper for generations!"

After Hua An, the elders of the Poison Demon Sect and some of the former elders of the Ten Thousand Venom Sect also began to pay their respects.

Hearing this unified voice, a peculiar emotion stirred in Xiao Yi Xian's heart. She walked to the chair at the highest position in the grand hall and slowly sat down.

“Starting today, the sect will have positions for both the Left and Right Protectors. I appoint Hua An as the Left Protector of the sect. In my absence, all matters within the sect may be handled by Hua An on my behalf!”

The first action Xiao Yi Xian took after sitting in the Sect Master's chair was to appoint a deputy. After all, she was not yet familiar with the management side of things, and Hua An was someone she found extremely trustworthy.

Upon hearing Xiao Yi Xian’s words, Hua An's face lit up with joy.

Many had witnessed Xiao Yi Xian's potential. From starting as a mere Dou Spirit, she quickly rose to a strength capable of crushing a sect master within half a year. She also controlled the legendary Netherworld Poison Flame, which was said to be incredibly difficult to refine. With such talent, she was bound to become a Dou Ancestor in the future, possibly even a legendary Dou Venerable.

As one of the first to follow Xiao Yi Xian, Hua An’s status would remain prominent even as new members joined the Poison Sect. Moreover, following such a powerful figure would undoubtedly help him significantly improve his own strength.

Overflowing with excitement, Hua An immediately knelt down and respectfully shouted, “Thank you, Sect Master, for your trust!”

“Stand up!”

Xiao Yi Xian gently raised her hand and spoke softly.

"Greetings to the Left Protector!"

Everyone was highly supportive of Xiao Yi Xian's appointment. As soon as Hua An stood up, the others greeted him with respect.

Next, Xiao Yi Xian proceeded to reassign some of the elders from both of the former sects. Within half a day, the disciples residing in the former Ten Thousand Venom Sect's headquarters had all learned of the changes. Since Xiao Yi Xian was a legitimate poison cultivator, there was no resistance in their hearts. Instead, they felt exhilarated and cheered loudly.
