"However, now is not the time yet."

Qin Feng added.

He was not afraid of the Supreme Sect.

Although the Supreme Sect was one of the three great sects of Qinling, there was still a gap compared to the top powers of the world like Heavenly King Mountain, Dragon King Hall, Supreme Dragon Gate, and so on.

It's just that.

He did not want to make a big show of himself.

If he were to annihilate the Supreme Sect alone, it would certainly attract the attention of the entire Cultivation World.

Soon, the secret of his bloodline would be discovered.

Therefore.

Growing quietly is the true path to success.

"My plan is for you to first approach Broken Mountain Sect and together, counter-attack the Supreme Sect."

Qin Feng said.

"Broken Mountain Sect?"

Hong Lian immediately dismissed the idea, "Impossible, it took Broken Mountain Sect a lot of effort to barely escape the clutches of the Supreme Sect, and although they have grown to encompass Seventy-two Sects, most of the forces they have taken in are small factions. They don't have the overall strength to compete with the Supreme Sect, let alone take a stand for us, the Moon Cutting Sect."

"No, they will." Qin Feng said, "Because the person behind Broken Mountain Sect is me."

"What?!"

Hong Lian and the others were astounded.

It had been unbelievable when Broken Mountain Sect broke free from the control of the Supreme Sect.

Then, with a massive amount of Elixirs, wealth, and Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures, it developed into the fourth major force outside of the three great sects of Qinling.

Even a fool knew that it couldn't possibly be just because of the Sect Leader, Zheng Aotian, alone.

There were rumors claiming that behind Broken Mountain Sect was a peerless figure, a preeminent hero, which accounted for their current achievements.

Unexpectedly, it was Qin Feng!

"Don't be so surprised." Qin Feng gestured for them to sit down, then continued, "You'll unite with Broken Mountain Sect and together confront the Supreme Sect. Of course, you won't be able to defeat the Supreme Sect, but their main forces are currently preoccupied with dealing with Red Fire Palace and Xingluo Peak, and won't truly become your enemy. Eventually, they will give in and release your father, won't they?"

"...Is that possible?"

Hong Lian said blankly.

The logic was right, but if the Supreme Sect really did decide to attack her and Broken Mountain Sect, they would surely die!

It was too risky.

"There will definitely be no problem."

Qin Feng stated, "Originally, Broken Mountain Sect had only two or three Grandmasters. Later I also sent Tan Xiao Monk and Old Drunkard there. The Supreme Sect did not want to waste their energy on them, and now that they have grown larger, along with your addition of over a dozen Grandmasters, the Supreme Sect will surely give in. It's just about a person, not about robbing them of money and grain. Anyone with a bit of sense would agree."

"..."

Hong Lian and others looked at each other in dismay.

It made perfect sense, but they dared not take the risk!

Seeing them silent, Qin Feng sighed and said, "Really, a bunch of Grandmasters and you're all so timid. I even wanted to turn you into the second 'Broken Mountain Sect.' Look at yourselves, how can you achieve great things like this?"

"..."

Hong Lian and the others reddened with embarrassment.

Indeed!

The Moon Cutting Sect was far stronger than Broken Mountain Sect was at that time. If Broken Mountain Sect dared to rebel against the Supreme Sect following Qin Feng's orders, why couldn't they do the same...

"Wait a moment."

Hong Lian suddenly said in surprise, "You said... to turn us into the second 'Broken Mountain Sect'?"

"That's right."

Qin Feng said with a smile at the corner of his mouth, "In the future, you will be the 'Moon Cutting Sect', not just 'Moon-cutting Sect'."

"..."

The crowd looked at each other again, their eyes lighting up with excitement!

Who wouldn't want their own Sect to grow strong?

Who wouldn't want to expand and grow?

Back when Broken Mountain Sect rose swiftly from a minor sect, countless people were envious, and they were among them.

"The Broken Mountain Sect has now established Seventy-two Sects; that's the limit. Expanding further may exceed Zheng Aotian's capabilities. To be honest, I even doubt whether Zheng Aotian can truly command the allegiance of all those Seventy-two Sects. Hence, he can't expand any further."

"So, you can serve as an excellent supplement. Currently, there must be many small factions that have become cannon fodder in the struggles amongst the three major sects. They have suffered countless casualties, but there are also many survivors without a sect. To survive such a brutal fight, apart from luck, also indicates some strength."

"This is a perfect opportunity to gather them!"

Qin Feng said.

The likes of Hong Lian boiled with excitement upon hearing this.

The survivors of the battle at Qinling are definitely not a small number, and indeed the timing couldn't be better to incorporate them.

"But how can we recruit without money?"

One of them asked.

Hearing this, the others also sighed deeply.

With the current chaos in Qinling, even resources of their own Moon-cutting Sect were stretched thin, how could they convince others to join willingly?

"Rest assured."

Qin Feng's lips curved in a smile as he said, "Money, elixirs, Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures, I'll give you the greatest support, nothing will be lacking."

"But do you know how much capital is needed to establish a large sect?"

One of them asked with skepticism.

"What I give to the Broken Mountain Sect, I'll give the same to you. If you perform well, you'll receive even more."

Qin Feng said.

"..."

The crowd was shocked into speechlessness.

The rapid development of the Broken Mountain Sect was due to its substantial financial backing.

Apart from the enviable plethora of Elixirs, they had heaps of money to purchase Divine Weapons, Spiritual Treasures, and such, attracting more individuals to join.

Cultivation in solitude.

Who wouldn't want to be in a well-resourced sect?

In just a few months, the incorporation of seventy-two halls—The Broken Mountain Sect's wealth is an astronomical figure beyond their imagination!

And yet, Qin Feng claimed he could offer the same financial support to them?

It was simply unbelievable!

"How can we trust you?"

Hong Lian said.

"Exactly, without substantial wealth, we're simply no match for the Supreme Sect."

Others chimed in.

Counting them, there were fourteen people in total. Qin Feng directly took out fourteen Divine Weapons crafted by Li Qianqian from the Nayu Ring and said, "These are for you to start with."

Hong Lian and the others held the swords and were astonished, their eyes wide open!

"This, this is a Heavenly Rank Divine Weapon!!"

"Yes, a Heavenly Rank Divine Weapon, these are all Heavenly Rank Divine Weapons!!"

"..." Text acquired from M|V|LEMP&YR.

At the entire Moon-cutting Sect, only as Sect Leader did Hong Lian possess a Heavenly Rank Divine Weapon, and it was a legacy from her father.

So seeing so many Heavenly Rank Divine Weapons at once was like beholding a mountain of gold.

"This, this is really for us?"

Hong Lian looked at Qin Feng in disbelief.

The others too widened their eyes, fixating nervously on Qin Feng, fearing he would shake his head.

"Of course."

Qin Feng shrugged with a smile.

"Awesome!!"

"To own a Heavenly Rank Divine Weapon in my lifetime finally!"

"Somebody pinch me, I must be dreaming!"

"..."

More than a dozen people cried with joy, nearly breaking down in tears.

"This is just a welcome gift." Qin Feng continued with another smile, "If you perform well in the future, you can have as many Heavenly Rank Divine Weapons as you want!"
