The chaos within the Devil Sect only returned to its former tranquility after half a month had passed, and afterwards, Xun Yun had calculated that in this chaos, other than the gang members of the Devil Sect, there were also many innocent disciples who had listened to the rumors and resisted those responsible for the purging mission, thus they were executed. Adding to the casualties in both the Heavenly Ghost Courtyard and the Gan Courtyard, the Devil Sect's current number of disciples was not even half as large as the original number of disciples. Moreover, most of them were early Foundation Establishment stage disciples, and there were only 40 or so Aurous Core stage disciples left. If it weren't for the support of Xun Yun and Feng Xing, two Spirit Severing cultivators, and the six Nascent Soul stage cultivators, the current Devil Sect would have long become a small and middle-sized sect that wanted to take a bite out of them.

Even if it was the Devil Sect that was under Xun Yun's watch, it was still a fact that their vitality had been greatly damaged. Moreover, some of the subsidiary sects and families of the Devil Sect had already left the Devil Sect in high spirits, causing the hearts of the disciples within the sect to once again waver.

Xun Yun also felt both physically and mentally exhausted due to the torture machine's matter. In addition, he was not adept at handling these matters, so he sent a sound transmission to Xing Tianya's group to withdraw back to Devil Sect. However, Xun Yun did not expect that the Xing Tian Ya at this time was actually Lu Chen in disguise, while the real Xing Tian Ya was actually still struggling within the formation that Lu Chen had set up.

"Xing Yun, Martial Uncle Xun sent a sound transmission for us to return to the Devil Sect. What do you think about this matter?" After receiving Xun Yun's sound transmission, Lu Chen called Xing Yun over to Xing Tian Ya's residence to discuss the matter.

Xing Yun had also found out about the Devil Sect's current situation from the sect disciples. He also believed that returning to the sect to deal with the internal affairs of the Devil Sect was in fact much better than staying in front of the Heavenly Ghost Courtyard and wasting time. He said, "Sect Leader, I also think that we should return to the sect to settle the situation.

"Ai, this time Martial Uncle Xun is a bit impatient." "" Lu Chen pretended to be distressed. Even if Xing Ji colluded with people from the Cloudsoaring sect, he should have told me first and made a decision after discussing it. "

"Martial Uncle Xun is also thinking for the sect. Perhaps he is also afraid of some unforeseen event." Xing Yun said. In his heart, he was also curious as to why Xun Yun was so impatient this time.

I also know that Martial Uncle Xun is thinking for the sect, but at the very least, you should let me know about this first. In addition, you can pretend that you don't know about this and wait for the people from the Cloudsoaring sect to really support the torture machine before setting up an ambush. The sect has suffered great losses in terms of vitality, and since this disciple has lost all confidence in the sect, it will not be possible for me to overhaul the sect in a short period of time. " Lu Chen pretended to have a headache as he said this.

"I'm afraid that Martial Uncle Xun was too tired from what happened in this period of time, so he made this kind of decision." Xing Yun said.

"Forget it, go inform the disciples to clean up and return to the sect tomorrow." Lu Chen waved his hand.

Seeing Lu Chen telling him to leave, Xing Yun left the room.

After seeing Xing Yun leave for a while, Lu Chen immediately teleported out of his room and appeared in Yun Tian's room.

"Senior Yun." Lu Chen recovered his composure and said to Yun Tian with a faint smile.

"Lu Chen, how did that Xing Yun fail to notice?" Yun Tian asked.

"Mm. Normally, Xing Yun would have noticed it … but right now, the Devil Sect is in chaos, so he doesn't have the mind to investigate what's wrong with me. Furthermore, the people from the Devil Slayer Sect won't suspect that his Life Tablet hasn't been destroyed yet." Lu Chen said with a smile.

After experiencing this matter, Lu Chen once again realized that if he had a person who had lived for an unknown amount of time by his side, it would save him a lot of energy. Originally, Lu Chen had planned to directly kill the Devil Sect's disciples like the Heaven's Punishment Cliff while they were still in a mess, but after seeing that Lin You Yuan was able to change Lu Lei's aura into Mo Xing's, he decided to risk pretending to be the Heaven's Punishment Cliff and use Xing Ya's identity to slowly divide the inner parts of the Devil Sect.

At the beginning, when Lin You Yuan said that Lu Chen could not hide his current cultivation level from a Soul Formation cultivator, Lu Chen decided to give up. Furthermore, after Lu Chen successfully hid his cultivation level from Lin You Yuan, he decided to carry out this plan.

"When are you going to the Devil Sect?" Yun Tian asked.

"Xun Yun has already sent a sound transmission back. I will set off tomorrow." Lu Chen said.

Although Yun Tian was a little worried for Lu Chen, he also knew that with Lu Chen's intelligence, nothing could happen to him.

On the other hand, Xing Yun couldn't fall asleep for a long time after returning to his room. He felt that there was always a hint of disharmony when he saw Xing Tianya today, but after thinking for a long time, he realized that it was indeed Xing Tian Ya's aura. It seems like too many things have happened in this period of time, and I actually have doubts about the Sect Leader. " After thinking for a long time, Xing Yun still couldn't come to a conclusion. He only thought that he was being overly sensitive.

On the second day, Lu Chen and Xing Yun brought the remaining Devil Sect disciples and hurried back to the Devil Sect before the sun rose, while the other sects saw the empty Devil Sect campgrounds.

A day after the Devil Sect left, the matter of the Devil Sect evacuating the Heavenly Ghost Courtyard was immediately made known to the people outside. Immediately, the cultivators in the cultivation world all thought that the Devil Sect was following in the footsteps of the Heaven Ghost Courtyard, and some even said that the internal affairs of the Devil Sect had become chaotic, so the Devil Sect didn't even have the time to attack the Heavenly Ghost Courtyard before they hurried back.

On the contrary, as the Devil Sect had already evacuated, the other sects had all left one by one to resolve the crisis. However, because of the recent siege from the other factions, Yao Feng Niang and Lingyun had lost their will to fight, and even if the crisis had been lifted, they still wouldn't return to their previous ways. They still cautiously made contact with the outside world, and those with a discerning eye could tell that the Heavenly Ghost Academy was already dead in name.

"Whap." Lu Chen slammed the table in anger. What else can the people outside say? " Lu Chen asked. The moment Lu Chen and the others returned to the Devil Sect, they heard the discussions of the Devil Sect outside. Although Lu Chen had asked many people to go out and say many things, he was currently pretending to be the Heaven's Punishment Cliff. He also pretended to be angry so that the Devil Sect's people wouldn't suspect him.

"They even said that the Devil Sect did not destroy the Heavenly Ghost Courtyard and would instead destroy themselves first." Mao Ji said carefully.

"Damn it." "No matter how good Xing Yun is, he still can't help but become angry." Sect Leader, the prestige of our Devil Sect will be even lower this time. "

Lu Chen rubbed his head and said: "This was also the reason why I was hesitating to leave the Heavenly Ghost Yard. Originally, the sect's prestige had already dropped, but if I left hastily, it would only cause its prestige to drop even further."

"Sect Leader, it's all my fault that the reputation of the sect is tarnished." Xing Yun blamed himself. He was the one who proposed to return to the sect, and he blamed himself for damaging the reputation of the sect because of his suggestion.

Lu Chen looked at Xing Yun and said, "Xing Yun, you don't need to blame yourself. In addition to the situation with the sect, you and I have no choice but to return."

"Thank you, Sect Leader." Xing Yun said gratefully.

Lu Chen looked at the few people in the room again. They were mainly the disciples of Heaven's Punishment Cliff and his trusted aides. They were all planning on how to use them to achieve their goals.

As for Lu Chen, he lowered his head and did not say anything. Everyone else thought that he was thinking about how to restore the Devil Sect's reputation, but they did not dare to say anything as they stood quietly to the side.

Half a day later, Lu Chen raised his head and said, "Xingyun, you've always done things in consideration, and I'm more confident in your arrangements for recruiting disciples. Be particularly careful when recruiting disciples, in case spies from other sects sneak into the sect."

"Sect Leader, you can rest assured that I will do my best to recruit disciples." Xing Yun said.

"Yes, you take Mao Ji to pacify the inner disciples of the sect. Those who are loyal to the sect at the peak of the Qi Condensation stage will be given a Foundation Establishment Pill, while the Foundation Establishment stage disciples will be given 100 spirit stones as a supplement. As for the Aurous Core stage disciples, they will be able to accept the younger generations of their families as disciples. Lu Chen said indifferently.

"Sect Leader, isn't this a bit too wasteful? Even after all these years of accumulation, the sect only has about a hundred Foundation Establishment Pills. I'm afraid this time …" Xing Chen said.

"It is precisely because of this that Junior Brother Xing spent so much on the Sect Leader. This way, the trust and loyalty of the disciples within the Sect will be enhanced, and the most important thing right now is to stabilize the Sect's interior." Xing Yun explained from the side.

"Xing Yun is right. If you want to recruit disciples, you can also make the conditions a bit more attractive. You can try to restore two-thirds of the sect's disciples to their original strength in three months." Lu Chen said.

"Disciple will not disappoint you, Sect Leader." Xing Yun said.

Lu Chen nodded his head and turned to look at the others: "Mo Ji, Huo Jing, the two of you are responsible for secretly searching for the inner circle of spies from the other sects. Remember to secretly carry out the task of not causing panic among the other disciples."

"Yes, disciple obeys." Moji, Huo Jing said.

"I'm going to pay my respects to Martial Uncle Xun and Martial Uncle Feng. You may leave first." Lu Chen said.

"Disciple will take his leave." The few of them respectfully left.

After they left, Lu Chen stretched his back and said, "Sigh, it's really tiring to pretend to be this Heaven Punisher Cliff. Next up, I'll go meet that Feng Xing who never shows himself." Finished speaking, Lu Chen flew straight to Feng Xing's residence, Devil's Punishment Peak.

Arriving at Devil's Punishment Peak, Lu Chen asked his disciple to inform Feng Xing that he wanted to meet him. In the end, after waiting for a long time, Feng Xing finally replied, "Yes or no, half a month, three stars!"

"This Feng Xing is really not an ordinary person." This Feng Xing is really not an ordinary person. "Then I'll come again then." Although Lu Chen was curious about how Feng Xing knew that he wasn't the real Heaven's Punishment Cliff and didn't expose his identity, he still decided to meet him at night. Lu Chen had a feeling that if he went to meet Feng Xing, he would get an unexpected reward.

After coming down from Devil Punishment Peak, Lu Chen flew to Devil Cloud Peak. Although he did not want to see Xun Yun exposed, in order to change this scene, he still decided to meet Xun Yun. However, Lu Chen did not expect that he would suffer the same fate as him on Devil Cloud Peak. He then returned to his room and waited for nightfall.
