The Mingguang Sect is renowned for its Bright Light True Technique, which is said to be the bane of all evil spirits, making it a well-established and reputable sect.
As a result, countless individuals flock to the Mingguang Sect, hoping to become its disciples.
However, this time, the disciple recruitment seemed a bit off...
Numerous young people who came to admire the Bright Light True Technique of the Mingguang Sect hadn't even had the chance to see it before they witnessed the Night Parade of a Thousand Ghosts...
Terrifying fierce ghosts suppressed the Bright Light True Technique of the Mingguang Sect without warning.
What was once a righteous place was now overrun by evil spirits. Those in the know understood it was due to the Wan Ghost Formation, while others might have thought they had stumbled into a ghostly realm...
What happened to the promised Bright Light True Technique of the Mingguang Sect?
Why are there ghosts running rampant everywhere?
Initially, Ma Liang refused Junior Sister Ouyang's request to activate the Feng City Formation to liven things up for the Mingguang Sect.
After all, we are the Grand Sky Sect... the number one sect in the world. Shouldn't we have some principles in our actions?As for the principles Senior Brother Ma Liang mentioned, Ouyang Ling pondered for a long time but couldn't understand what he meant.
What? Senior Brother Ma Liang, you're worried that outsiders will say we're misusing the Feng City Formation?
Who said that?
Do you have any evidence to prove that these fierce ghosts were caused by our Grand Sky Sect's Feng City Formation?
I urge you to be kind!
There's no evidence proving this is our Grand Sky Sect's Feng City Formation!
So, if you say that, we can sue you for defamation!
Moreover, my Senior Brother Ma Liang feels very uncomfortable when faced with defamation, so he needs to rest for a while. During this rest, no one can send disciples into the Feng City Formation.
So, in this situation, do you still think this is my Senior Brother Ma Liang's Feng City Formation?
If you still think so, please provide evidence... Even if you provide evidence, our Grand Sky Sect will firmly deny it!
Doesn't the Mingguang Sect love cultivating the Bright Light True Technique?
Isn't it known as the bane of all evil spirits?
We're just here to help the Mingguang Sect, to give them a chance to practice against evil spirits.
What?
You say arranging the Ghost Emperor directly in the Mingguang Sect is too outrageous... What's so outrageous about it...
Letting the Ghost Emperor accompany your Mingguang Sect to practice against evil spirits, isn't that a rare opportunity?
As for those young ones who came to join the Mingguang Sect?
Can you handle disasters?
How's your sleep quality?
Can you still sleep with fierce ghosts flying around your room at night?
If your sleep quality isn't good, I recommend choosing another sect; the Mingguang Sect isn't a place you can handle.
On that day, Ouyang Ling used the Feng City Formation to dissuade a third of the disciples who wanted to join the Mingguang Sect.
The Sect Master of the Mingguang Sect was so angry that he declared he would go to the Grand Sky Sect to complain to the Great Elder.
The Sect Master of the Mingguang Sect was indeed determined; he really planned to go...
But the problem was, as soon as he stepped out of the Mingguang Sect's gate, he fell into the Ghost Emperor's illusion... performing a ghostly wall walk right at the gate.
He walked in circles, perfectly round!
Forget about going to the Grand Sky Sect to complain; if he could get out of that circle, it would mean the Ghost Emperor lost!
Just as the Sect Master of the Mingguang Sect was getting dizzy from walking in circles, the elders of the Mingguang Sect personally brought out all the debts owed to the Grand Sky Sect to repay, saving the Sect Master from being exhausted to death by the ghostly wall walk.
After receiving the repayment, Ouyang Ling didn't say much, instructed Ma Liang to withdraw the Feng City Formation, and left immediately.
As for the Sect Master of the Mingguang Sect's grumbling about going to the Grand Sky Sect to complain, Ouyang Ling expressed her agreement but kindly reminded the Sect Master that rumors of the Demonic Sect running rampant had been heard, and the outside world was not peaceful.
If you go out now and happen to encounter a familiar Ghost Emperor, being killed isn't that scary; what's scary is if some Ghost Emperor inherits Tantai Jing's hobby and insists on having tea with you, what will you do...
The Sect Master of the Mingguang Sect was indeed someone who listened to advice, immediately announcing that he would go into seclusion for a while, not planning to leave even the Mingguang Sect, let alone go to the Grand Sky Sect.
Afterward, Ma Liang and Ouyang Ling traveled around, and Ma Liang's understanding of human behavior was repeatedly challenged by Junior Sister Ouyang.
There are actions you can't even imagine, but there are no actions Junior Sister Ouyang wouldn't dare to take.
As for principles... not only does Junior Sister Ouyang lack them, but even I, Ma Liang, am almost losing mine...
Indeed, proximity to Ouyang leads to corruption...
However, with Ouyang Ling's frequent actions, a large amount of bad debt was cleared, and various resources were returned to the Grand Sky Sect.
One day, Chu Xinghe was slacking off in the Skill Tower, bothering no one.
Senior Brother Shen Chun, holding the Elder's Order, suddenly appeared out of nowhere.
"Junior Brother Xinghe, the Great Elder is looking for you!"
"Huh? Looking for me again? Is it good news or bad news?"
"Judging by the Great Elder's expression, it's probably bad news!"
"That's great... ahem... that's troublesome... I'll go right away." Chu Xinghe hummed a tune as he quickly made his way to the Spirit Crane Palace, but as soon as he entered, he was dumbfounded.
What the hell is this? Why are there so many resources piled up in the Spirit Crane Palace?
Soon, with Senior Brother Feng Fei's explanation, Chu Xinghe learned the origin of these resources.
All the bad debts of the Grand Sky Sect?
Chu Xinghe's first reaction to Senior Brother Feng Fei's explanation was, "Are you kidding me?"
Do you know what bad debt means?
It means it's unrecoverable... but now all the bad debts have been recovered, isn't this a bit too outrageous?
And Senior Brother Shen Chun... you said it was bad news? You call this bad news?
Didn't Ma Liang repeatedly fail to collect debts? Why did it suddenly become like this?
Soon, from Senior Brother Feng Fei's words, Chu Xinghe understood why.
Ma Liang repeatedly failed to collect debts on his own, but he brought Ouyang Ling with him.
As soon as Chu Xinghe heard the name Ouyang Ling, he knew it was trouble.
How could I forget about the Ouyang family?
In the Grand Sky Sect, no one really has debt collection experience, but if you talk about dodging debts, the Ouyang family is top-notch.
Only a more cunning Ouyang family can defeat an old debtor...
So, with Ma Liang bringing Ouyang Ling along, who would dare owe our Grand Sky Sect?
So, where's the bad news? How is this bad news?
Soon... when Chu Xinghe met the Great Elder, he finally understood why Senior Brother Shen Chun said it was bad news.
The Great Elder looked at the countless resources returned, with not much joy on his face, but rather filled with worry.
Chu Xinghe's first thought was, is the Great Elder worried about how to spend these resources?
Fortunately, it wasn't that. Soon, from the Great Elder's words, Chu Xinghe finally understood why Senior Brother Shen Chun said it was bad news.
Because Ma Liang and Ouyang Ling had gone on a rampage...
In a short time, the Ma-Ling duo swept through more than a dozen sects or families that owed the Grand Sky Sect.
Wherever they went, they were unstoppable, no matter how cunning the debtor was, they were left with nothing in front of Ouyang Ling.
However, the methods of the Ma-Ling duo were somewhat outrageous.
For example, the Sikong family. It's said that the head of the Sikong family chose to avoid meeting Ma Liang and Ouyang Ling, claiming that Sikong Heng was in seclusion.
Upon learning this, Ouyang Ling didn't force the Sikong family to repay the debt but quickly bonded with the women of the Sikong family, stating that she wasn't there to collect debts but to help the Sikong family.
Upon hearing about the Sikong family's lack of offspring, Ouyang Ling proactively offered help, saying, "Lack of offspring? I can cure that!"
"I have medicine from the Eternal Spring Palace, specifically for this issue!"
Without hesitation, Ouyang Ling administered the medicine to the ladies of the Sikong family and introduced a few... ahem... young talents...
It was only because Sikong Heng discovered it in time that who knows what might have happened to the Sikong family...
Sikong Heng repaid the debt to the Grand Sky Sect overnight; he had no choice. If he didn't, with Ouyang Ling's help, the Sikong family would surely have a booming offspring next year...
Then there's the Lihuo Sect, which warmly welcomed the Ma-Ling duo, even assigning the Young Sect Master to accompany them.
But that night, Ouyang Ling accused the Young Sect Master of coveting Senior Brother Ma Liang's beauty and intending to do something inappropriate.
Does that even sound reasonable?
If you said the Deputy Sect Master was interested in Ouyang Ling, that would be one thing, but saying Ma Liang? We all know what Ma Liang looks like in the Grand Sky Sect, don't we?
Moreover, the Young Sect Master is also a man...
But it's said that Ma Liang agreed with Ouyang Ling's statement on the spot and threatened to announce the Young Sect Master's inappropriate actions to the world.
The Sect Master of the Lihuo Sect was dumbfounded...
Are you really from the Grand Sky Sect?
You're from the number one sect in the world... if you do this, we can't keep our face, but do you still want your Grand Sky Sect's face?
In response, Ouyang Ling bluntly stated that Ma Liang was merely an outer disciple of the Grand Sky Sect, and they would expel him upon returning. Ma Liang had already lost all face, so she asked if the Young Sect Master of the Lihuo Sect still wanted his.
The Sect Master of the Lihuo Sect sold everything to repay the debt that night, and it's said the Young Sect Master became depressed.
He now suffers from a fear of strangers.
Besides the Lihuo Sect, there's also the Qibing Sect, famous for its weapon crafting.
The world's number one Spirit Infusion Master, Ouyang Ling, personally visited, and the Qibing Sect gave her great importance. The Sect Master of the Qibing Sect even dared to ask for guidance.
Ouyang Ling couldn't refuse the Sect Master's request and immediately began guiding the Qibing Sect.
After just one day of guidance, it's said that the Qibing Sect's furnaces went haywire... The failure rate of the senior Spirit Infusion Masters skyrocketed under Ouyang Ling's guidance.
The problem is, Ouyang Ling, being the world's number one Spirit Infusion Master, her guidance sounded very reasonable... you couldn't even refute her.
Ouyang Ling declared she wouldn't leave until she guided the Qibing Sect to perfection.
It's said that the Sect Master of the Qibing Sect repaid the debt that very day...
Ouyang Ling, are you trying to guide us to perfection?
Or are you trying to guide us to pack up and leave...
