Chapter 280: Killing the Chicken to Warn the Monkey

They were not sure just how strong Sect Master Wu Xinjue was.

But… he was definitely terrifying; otherwise, how could he become the Inner Sect Master!

In less than a moment, the group felt the Qi in the surrounding air become incomparably dense…

It was more than twice as strong as the Outer Sect.

Sect Master Wu Xinjue's figure moved like a streak of light, and in the blink of an eye, he brought the Disciples to the outside of the Inner Sect's main hall.

With a wave of his hand, he set the three hundred Disciples down on the ground.

After Xiao Fan and the others landed, their first reaction was to look around…

The tall and majestic main hall exuded a sense of awe.

It was more than twice as large as the Outer Sect's main hall!

Here, with every breath, the surrounding Qi entering their bodies made them feel completely comfortable, with a sense of floating…

Everyone's first reaction was: as expected of the Inner Sect!

At this moment, several streaks of light rushed out from inside the main hall, landing beside Sect Master Wu Xinjue.

They were clearly Inner Sect Elders.

Seeing the new arrivals, Xiao Fan was stunned…

Kong Ping of Danding Peak, Warrior Feng of Wudao Peak, Elder Shi Pin of the Formation Branch, Beiming of the Artifact Refining Lineage, and several other Elders he did not recognize.

But judging from their auras, they were not a bit weaker than Kong Ping and the others…

"Are they all in the Yuanhun Realm…"

Xiao Fan muttered to himself. He had not expected Kong Ping and these people to be here, along with many unfamiliar faces.

The many Disciples beside him had similar reactions.

Sect Master Wu Xinjue scanned the crowd, then said in a deep voice: "The Inner Sect of the Jixian Sect is different from the Outer Sect. Joining the Jixian Sect's Inner Sect means that you are Disciples of the Jixian Sect for the rest of your lives. If there is any betrayal, your entire Family will be exterminated!"

His voice was loud and very heavy. Besides giving people a strong sense of oppression, it also revealed a cold, murderous intent.

This time, even Xiao Fan felt a chill in his heart. If even he felt this way, how much more so for the others!

Suddenly, Sect Master Wu Xinjue's gaze turned to three people in the crowd. With a wave of his hand, their figures were uncontrollably pulled to the front.

These three, two men and one woman, were all filled with terror…

"Speak, who sent you."

Sect Master Wu Xinjue said in a deep voice, his tone filled with lethal intent!

The three panicked… for a moment, they did not know what to do.

Xiao Fan and the others were all stunned, not understanding what was going on…

"Sect Master…"

"I am wronged, Sect Master…"

"…"

Two of the men spoke, but Sect Master Wu Xinjue had no intention of listening to their explanations. With a casual wave of his hand, their bodies turned into blood mists…

They were blasted until not even a residue remained.

This scene instantly made everyone feel a chill down their backs…

Even Xiao Fan felt the same. Although he had killed many people, they were all people who deserved to die.

He had never seen anything like what Sect Master Wu Xinjue did…

Not asking for clarification, just taking action directly!

The last woman, seeing this scene, was immediately panicked. She collapsed to the ground, shivering…

"Speak!"

Sect Master Wu Xinjue demanded again.

"I'll tell you, Sect Master. It was the Thunder Fire Sect that sent me…"

The person hurriedly spoke, her face full of terror, revealing her identity.

She originally had nothing to do with the Thunder Fire Sect, but after joining the Jixian Sect and becoming an Outer Sect Disciple, the Thunder Fire Sect contacted her and bribed her.

They made her a spy for the Thunder Fire Sect within the Jixian Sect and promised her great benefits.

"Sect Master, I was forced. If I didn't agree, then… the Thunder Fire Sect would exterminate my Family!"

The female Disciple wailed: "Sect Master, please forgive me…"

Sect Master Wu Xinjue snorted coldly and waved his hand again; this person's body also turned into blood mist.

Xiao Fan and the others suddenly understood…

They finally understood everything. Presumably, the two people just now were also spies sent by other Sects…

Sect Master Wu Xinjue looked at the crowd and said: "The Jixian Sect's Outer Sect has many people, and it is difficult to identify some spies, but that does not matter. However… after joining the Inner Sect, if anyone dares to do anything that betrays the Sect… extermination of your Family!"

Sect Master Wu Xinjue emphasized again, stressing the words "extermination of your Family."

Xiao Fan suddenly understood. He suddenly realized why it took ten days to join the Jixian Sect's Inner Sect.

Presumably, the Sect had used those ten days to investigate their identities and backgrounds.

After all, joining the Jixian Sect's Inner Sect meant truly becoming a Disciple of the Jixian Sect.

Some secrets within the Sect could not be leaked.

And Sect Master Wu Xinjue should have already grasped the backgrounds of these three, confirming they had been bought by other Sects.

And he only killed them publicly after bringing everyone to this place!

The biggest purpose was to establish authority!

To let all the Disciples see with their own eyes and understand the consequences of betraying the Sect.

Xiao Fan looked around and found that the expressions of the people around him were full of gravity and tension!

Some female Disciples were pale… clearly having never seen such a scene before.

This made Xiao Fan realize his own weakness once again.

The three people who were killed just now all had the cultivation of the first level of the Tongtian Realm.

Yet, in front of Sect Master Wu Xinjue, they didn't even have the courage to run away.

Weak!

The Tongtian Realm was still too weak.

Even if the Tongtian Realm could act tyrannically in some small cities!

But in front of major powers, they were not worth anything.

"Elder Yin Su, send people to exterminate the Families of these three!!"

Sect Master Wu Xinjue said in a deep voice.

The three Disciples were dead, their bodies not even leaving a residue.

And their Families would now face extermination!

An Elder behind Sect Master Wu Xinjue stepped forward, cupped his hands to Sect Master Wu Xinjue, and said: "Yes!"
