Great News! Reunited with My Fellow Disciples in the Demon Cult After Our Sect Disbanded!

[Due to recent issues related to the original work, this story has been reworked. Thank you so much for your interest. Feel free to follow or unfollow, and my sincere apologies!]

The Cangfeng Sect went bankrupt because it couldn't afford food.

With a sigh, the master gave each disciple a parting gift.

The eldest senior sister said, "Master, don't worry. Even if our sect is gone, I'll travel the world in Cangfeng's name and slay every demonic cultivator to avenge Fourth Junior Sister!"

The second senior brother said, "My family has been urging me to return and ascend the throne. Now I have no excuse to put it off. One day, you must all visit my territory!"

The third senior brother said, "I don't have much talent for cultivation, so I'll head home and farm after leaving the mountain. But we'll always be family. Come to me if you ever need help!"

The master said, "Good, good. You're all my good disciples. I haven't taught you for nothing."

Then he asked Qiu Xi, "Little Xi, where are you planning to go?"

Qiu Xi was the youngest disciple of the Cangfeng Sect. His senior sister had picked him up while out fighting evil.

Under the eager gazes of his fellow disciples, he said, "I... I plan to visit some relatives first, then decide what to do..."

As he spoke, tears filled his eyes.

Wonderful, wonderful! The sect was gone, and he could finally leave!

Back then, his father had arranged for him to join the Demonic Cult, but his senior sister had waylaid him on the road and dragged him into this unlucky sect! Heaven was his witness: his family had been demonic cultivators for eight generations!

Fortunately, he'd spent all these years diligently doing nothing and had never done a single thing worthy of the sect. Now his ties to it were severed, and it was time to seek refuge with his older cousin!

Qiu Xi wiped his tears and said farewell to everyone from the sect. And then... then Qiu Xi reunited with his sect at the Demonic Cult.

Qiu Xi: ?

Including his Fourth Senior Sister, who was already dead.

Qiu Xi: ???

How did you bunch of brainiacs and oddballs all end up in the same place after splitting up and going your separate ways?!

Master: Little Xi, let me explain. Your eldest senior sister was captured, so I came to rescue her.

Eldest Senior Sister: Little Xi, let me explain. Our master was captured, so I came to rescue him.

Second Senior Brother: Little Xi, listen to me. Master and Senior Sister were captured by monsters, no, by the Demonic Cult!

Third Senior Brother: Right, we were all captured by monsters!

Qiu Xi: ...

Do you really need rescuing? I'm the one who needs to be rescued!

A few days later...

Cult Leader: It seems a righteous sect spy has infiltrated our Demonic Cult.

Qiu Xi: ...

Cult Leader: By the way, this is a traitor to our cult. He still has the cult's seal, so don't let him trick you if you see him.

The Cult Leader took out a portrait of Qiu Xi's older cousin.

Qiu Xi: …

I'm really the one who needs rescuing! Help!
