Hearing Chen Qingke’s words, Li Ming immediately laughed.

“Alright, do you want to add a bet?”

“How about if you lose, you marry me?”

Li Ming looked at Chen Qingke teasingly. Lu Lan also laughed.

Meanwhile, the rest of the disciples on the sidelines looked like they were watching a show. All of their gazes turned to Chen Qingke.

After hearing what Li Ming said, a blush emerged on Chen Qingke’s face and she bashfullv lowered her head.

“Senior brother… You!”

Chen Qingke felt incredibly shy. Before she could finish what she wanted to say, Li Ming smiled and said, “Let’s go. I was just joking. Look at how tired all of you are, it’s best for us to return to the sect as quickly as possible.” “After all, who knows if there are more people from other sects nearby?”

Li Ming’s words pulled everyone back from their daze.

Right now, they were still on a mission.

Having just returned from the brink of life and death, they should naturally leave this place quickly.

It was already very fortunate for them that Li Ming had managed to single-handedly take care of the people from the Heavenly Demon Sect, but that did not mean that they could just relax and take a break now.

Hearing this, Chen Qingke immediately nodded. The blush on her face did not disappear, and her eyes darted around evasively.

Her mind seemed to be full of all sorts of thoughts.

Regardless, after regaining clarity, they all made their way back to the Divine Will Sect.

While they were traveling, Lu Lan found herself curious.

Li Ming was currently only at the intermediate stage of the foundation establishment realm. However, with his dual cultivation of body and qi, he managed to kill Qin Zhen, who was at the late stage of the foundation establishment realm.

Such a thing was unprecedented!

It was already unexpected that he could cultivate both body and qi, but the combat strength he displayed did not lose out in terms of the shock factor!

This caused Lu Lan to have some ideas of trying out body cultivation.

She now thought that perhaps the belief that body cultivation was useless was actually a misconception.

At least, in Lu Lan’s eyes, the effects of body cultivation were clear as day.

The might displayed by Li Ming was indeed an eye-opener for Lu Lan.

It also allowed her to deeply understand the possible effects of body cultivation.

The other Divine Will Sect disciples that were present had also been shocked by Li Ming’s strength.

But at this moment, Li Ming found himself curious about something. Having some questions in mind, he directly asked Lu Lan about them. “Senior Sister Lu, what exactly is going on?”

“Are these people from the other sects planning to start a war with our Divine Will Sect?”

All this time, Li Ming did not have a clear idea on what was happening. He did not even know why the sect had entered a state of alert right after he had exited his retreat.

All of this was outside of his expectations.

Hearing Li Ming’s questions, Lu Lan explained.

“The Promotion Conference for the sects of the Eastern Continent is approaching.”

“Junior Brother Li, how much do you know about our Eastern Continent?” Lu Lan asked a question back at Li Ming.

He thought for a moment and said, “The Eastern Continent is divided into two regions, the South and the North. The Divine Will Sect is located in the south and is the number one sect in the south.”

“As for the rest, I’m not too clear about it.”

Although he had been in the sect for more than three years and seemed to have entered the cultivation world, in reality, Li Ming had been immersed in the life of tempering his body and grinding for entries for nearly the entirety of the past three years.

He did not care aDout tne layout or tne cultivation world or anytmng outside the sect.

As such, he naturally did not have much of an idea of the landscape of the cultivation world.

In fact, Li Ming did not even know much about the Divine Will Sect, much less the sects outside.

“What you said is only partially correct.”

“In the Heavenly Southern Region of the Eastern Continent, there is indeed only one major sect, which is the Divine Will Sect. The other sects are all dependent on us.”

“This is also why the Divine Will Sect is the number one sect in the Heavenly

Southern Region. However, there are also a few large sects in the Heavenly

Northern Region. Their strength is not inferior to Divine Will Sect.”

“The Heavenly Demon Sect that we encountered this time is one of them.”

“The reason why these sects are sending their disciples to the Heavenly Southern Region and are launching attacks at our Divine Will Sect’s disciples is that they have no choice but to send their disciples to the Heavenly Southern Region.”

“Their goal is the Sect Promotion Conference and to fight for resources.”

Hearing Lu Lan’s words, Li Ming gradually understood.

He gradually understood what was going on.

However, he was still wondering what exactly this Sect Promotion Conference was. He could not understand why the sects had to resort to such means for a conference. This was something that Li Ming simply did not understand.

“Senior Sister Lu, would it not be better for everyone to cooperate and develop together?”

Would it not be much easier for everyone to develop harmoniously and advance together?

If that were the case, it would be much easier for the sects to rise and become even stronger.

Would fighting and killing each other’s forces not only cause heavy losses?

In this way, even if they won, what did they stand to gain?

Lu Lan could not help but laugh when Li Ming said what he said. “Junior Brother Li, that thought is a thought that a lot of those who have merely begun cultivating share.”

“However, reality is cruel.”

“Cultivators seize the fate of the world, but they must also follow the will of the heavens. The resources on this continent are limited and cannot accommodate an infinite number of people.”

“Take a town in the mortal world, for example.”

“The number of people in the town has increased, but the amount of food in the town has not changed. In this case, you can either have everyone ration themselves or cull a portion of the town.”

“The same situation takes place in the cultivation world.” After Lu Lan’s explanation, Li Ming finally understood.

He finally understood the cruel rules of the cultivation world.

Life and death were all in the pursuit of fame and fortune.

When it came to the pursuit of fame and fortune, even life and death were no longer important.

“After the Law Enforcement Hall’s assessment is over, the Eastern Continent will also hold a competition between the sects.”

“Although there is already a grand competition and duels between the sects, according to what has happened in past years, no matter what results are obtained in the competition, wars will still erupt between sects.”

Li Ming was dumbfounded again.

Why were the rules of the cultivation world so weird?

Since all the sects were going to war with one another, what was the point of the grand competition between them? What was the point of all this?

Why did they have to act polite before using greater force?

Li Ming found himself baffled.

“Senior Sister Lu, if there’s going to be war after, why do the sects still hold a competition?”

“Is it to test the other party? Then what’s the point of the sect disciples who are invading our territory right now?”

Li Ming was confused.

He thought back to his past life. He woke up early and went to bed late to train his body. The only other thing he did was grind for entries. It was so stable and peaceful.

But now, although his strength had increased and he could cultivate qi, the world around him only grew more and more complicated.

It was so complicated that Li Ming felt that everything was unnecessary.

“Actually, the war between sects has already begun. Whether it’s these sneak attacks or the competition later, it’s all the same.”

“After all, what every sect wants is the same.”

“However, it’s not like there’s no point in the sect competition. If we can get first place, the sect will be protected and have a certain advantage in this war.”

“In the past, the Divine Will Sect relied on getting number one in the competition, as well as the fact that it survived every sect war, to become the number one sect in the Heavenly Southern Region..”
