“Since their sect respects the strong, doesn’t that mean that as long as we’re stronger than them, they will be obedient?” Shen Yaowei thought for a moment and stared at the two people in front of her as she asked.

The two of them were surprised by Shen Yaowei’s logic, but on careful thought, what she said seemed to be right.

“This… should be the case. But they’re really very powerful, especially their sect master, who’s an old monster who has lived for more than a hundred years. His strength is probably comparable to the Imperial Preceptor.” At this point, the First Elder paused. “Miss Shen, we can actually think of another way. There’s no need to fight them head-on.”

“If we think of another way, won’t we be wasting time again? It’s all thanks to His Highness Li that the ghost race was heavily injured previously. Even if their Ghost King didn’t die, it was already heavily injured. If we wait any longer, once the Ghost King recovers or someone else inherits the throne, there’s a high chance that it will make a comeback. At that time, we’ll be the ones who were killed and lost the initiative.” Shen Yaowei stood up and said without hesitation, “I’ll go to the Hanlin Sect to borrow the Ye Chuan Divine Mirror now.”

“Yaoyao, don’t be rash first. Big Brother will accompany you!” Taking advantage of the fact that Shen Yaowei had opened the spatial wormhole, Shen Yifeng saw an opportunity and hurriedly chased after her.

Cheng Xiangkun waited until the spatial wormhole in front of him disappeared before raising his hand to wipe his cold sweat. “First Elder, why do I feel that they don’t look like they’re borrowing the Ye Chuan Divine Mirror? They look more like they’re snatching it?”

The corners of the First Elder’s mouth twitched speechlessly. He sighed and said, “I think so too. Forget it, inform the others in the sect to start preparing. It will definitely be a fierce battle this time.”

Cheng Xiangkun’s expression darkened. Then, he went to prepare with the First Elder.

At the same time, Shen Yaowei had already transmigrated into space and arrived at the foot of Ye Chuan Mountain where Hanlin Sect was.

At this moment, the sun was setting in the west. The orange-red burning clouds dyed the entire sky red, dyeing the entire mountain peak in a strong color.

Shen Yaowei stood at the foot of the mountain and faced the gatekeeper disciple guarding the foot of the mountain with Shen Yifeng.

The disciple in green clothes was aggressive. He pointed at Shen Yaowei’s nose and shouted angrily, “Who are you? This is the Ye Chuan Mountain, the forbidden area where the Hanlin Sect is. No one is allowed to enter.”

“What if I have to go in?” Shen Yaowei tilted her head and looked at this disciple.

The disciple’s gaze swept across Shen Yaowei. Seeing that the other party was just a delicate and weak-looking little girl, he snorted in disdain. “Unless you defeat me!”

“That’s easy.” Shen Yaowei nodded. Her figure had already rushed out of the spot. She raised a palm and imprinted it on the male disciple’s face, sending him flying.

The male disciple didn’t even have a chance to scream. His body hit a tree trunk not far away, his eyes rolled backward, and he fainted.

“Big Brother, let’s go.” Shen Yaowei curled her lips and smiled. She ran all the way up. After only walking more than ten steps, another pair of sisters in the same color clothes tore through the air.

“Stop!” The sisters looked 70% similar. The older sister pointed at Shen Yaowei and shouted, “How dare you, demoness! You don’t know the immensity of heaven and earth! Today, us two Arhats will let you know how powerful…”

Shen Yaowei couldn’t be bothered to talk nonsense. She took out two charms and threw them out.

The charms stuck to the sisters’ foreheads, and their bodies instantly couldn’t move. They cursed angrily, “Damn girl, if you have the ability, don’t use these strange moves. We’ll fight head-on!”

“Sure, but you have to tell me what the ‘two Arhats’ you mentioned just now means?” Shen Yaowei thought of this title and felt a little nervous for some reason.

“You came to our Hanlin Sect to challenge us, but you actually don’t even know our sect’s 108 Arhats? There are a total of 108 gatekeepers on our mountain path, and they’re all called Arhats. Unless you defeat all 108 of us, you can forget about stepping into our Han Lin Sect!”

The corners of Shen Yaowei’s mouth twitched fiercely twice, and her heart trembled.

There were a total of 108 people. Even if they fought alone, it would take her a lot of time.

Shen Yaowei didn’t expect to experience this tribulation when she came to the Hanlin Sect. She rubbed the space between her eyebrows. “No, I won’t fight anymore.”

“Yaoyao?” Shen Yifeng looked surprised. He didn’t expect Shen Yaowei to give up.

The sisters were also stunned. Then, they laughed and said, “1 knew it. No one dares to challenge the authority of our Hanlin Sect…”

“I won’t fight 108 people. I want to challenge your sect master. If I win, your Hanlin Sect will lend me the Ye Chuan Divine Mirror to use. If your sect master wins, 1, Shen Yaowei, will be at your disposal.” Shen Yaowei magnified her voice with spiritual power several times, and her agile voice spread over the entire Ye Chuan Mountain.

As soon as these words were spoken, the entire Ye Chuan Mountain fell silent.

The sisters were shocked by Shen Yaowei’s words. “Are you crazy?!”

Facing the shocked gazes of the two, Shen Yaowei placed her hands behind her back. “I’m in a hurry. I don’t have time to take my time with you.”

“What a hurry? You’re just a little girl, but you actually dare to be so presumptuous and challenge the entire Hanlin Sect. You must pay the price for your arrogance!” At this moment, an old voice exploded in the sky like a thunderclap. Accompanied by a dazzling, strong light, it shot out from the top of the mountain and headed straight for the sky.

As the strong light stopped, a figure stood in the world.

An old man put his hands behind his back and looked down at Shen Yaowei below.

Shen Yaowei’s gaze didn’t dodge at all. The moment she met the old man’s eyes, invisible sparks surged.

“Sect Master!” The sisters spoke at the same time. Then, they thought of their miserable appearance and lowered their heads in shame.

Qian Zhongshan snorted and waved his hand. He expected better from them and said in disappointment, “As a disciple of the Hanlin Sect, how can you be so useless? Both of you, retreat!”

The charms that were originally restricting the two sisters were torn apart by the strong wind. The two sisters hurriedly retreated.

Shen Yaowei’s glabella twitched between the brows. She lowered her voice and reminded Shen Yifeng, “Big Brother, the strength of the sect master of the Hanlin Sect is extraordinary. You should stay away first…”

“Little girl, it’s a little too late to realize my strength now. Our Hanlin Sect has never been soft-hearted to the enemy. If you dare to challenge today, there’s no turning back.” Qian Zhongshan descended from the sky and stood steadily in front of Shen Yaowei.

“Senior, you’ve misunderstood me. I let my brother dodge because I don’t want to affect him when I attack later.” Shen Yaowei sized up Qian Zhongshan.. “Since Senior came out to fight today, you should have agreed to what I said just now, right?”
