Female Saintess Gu!
Known as the number one Gu in the Endless God Ruins, only the Female Saintess Sect could remove it.
Of course, there might be some powerful Heavenly Emperors who could remove it, but why would those Heavenly Emperors help the disciples of the Female Saintess Sect?
Why would they offend the Female Saintess Sect for no reason?
There was only one Female Saintess Gu when it was planted, but it would quickly split into tens of thousands, lurking in the bone marrow of the martial artist.
This Gu's defense was very strong, and it couldn't be killed. Even a Quasi-emperor couldn't kill it.
It was impossible to force it out, and it was even more impossible to poison it to death.
These Gu worms were like maggots in the tarsal bone. They had already integrated with the bones of the person who planted the Gu. Usually, they wouldn't act up, but once the Gu Master gave the order, even if the person reached the Quasi-emperor level, they would be bitten to death in minutes.
However, once they broke through the Emperor-rank, the Female Saintess Gu was almost useless. Emperor-rank could also suppress the Female Saintess Gu.
Those who could reach Emperor-rank were the upper echelons of the Female Saintess Sect. They themselves had vested interests. Most of them wouldn't think of leaving the Female Saintess Sect, but wanted to act like a tyrant.
That's right!
Because they had been suppressed and brainwashed for so many years, their minds had long been distorted.
The naive era of the past was long gone. What was left was only the thoughts of women's rights. They only wanted to take revenge on the world's shameless men.
There were also some who wanted to leave after reaching the Emperor-rank, but at this time, they would find that their families had long been integrated with the Female Saintess Sect.
In addition to the suppression of the Heavenly Emperors, they could no longer leave the Female Saintess Sect.
Of course, in history, there were also Emperor-rank experts who forcibly left the Female Saintess Sect, but they were all mercilessly killed in the end.
For so many years, the Female Saintess Sect always had two or three Heavenly Emperors. Those who dared to betray the Female Saintess Sect would only face death.
The inner sect disciples were the mainstay of the Female Saintess Sect, the core strength.
The outer sect disciples were the bargaining chips they used to win over the major forces.
Generation after generation of marriage alliances, in addition to the combination of various interests, made those forces and the Female Sage Sect tightly bound together. They were bound together for good or bad.
The goal of the Female Saintess Sect was to unite all the major forces and then destroy the Heavenly Emperor Sect and eventually become the ruler of the Endless God Ruins.
This was the wish of the leaders of the Saintess Sect generation after generation, and it was also the source of the continuous struggle of the group of perverted old women.
If a female outer sect disciple didn't follow the sect's arrangements, the only outcome was death. There were no exceptions.
After you listen to the arrangements, get married and have children, after a hundred years, the sect will remove the Saintess Gu for you. Only then can you be considered to be truly free.
It's just that after a hundred years, if you're quick, you'll probably have a house full of children and grandchildren. You'll have long become one with that family. Even if you get freedom, is it true freedom?
Furthermore, this clan would also be tied to the Female Saintly Sect. So even if the Female Saintly Gu was removed, you would be woefully aware that you would never be able to escape the control of the Female Saintly Sect in this lifetime.
This was the method of the Saintess Sect. This method was no longer an open secret in the Endless Ruins of Gods.
However, there were still countless Young Masters and families who flocked to marry a female Holy Sect disciple like a flock of ducks.
The disciples of the Female Holy Sect would be trained in all aspects. Strength, temperament, bearing, and even the techniques of the bedroom would be trained.
The disciples of the Female Holy Sect had the halo of a super sect. The female disciples who could marry out of the sect were all perfect goddesses in all aspects. They were all proud daughters of heaven, and were the most ideal beauties in the hearts of men.
While hugging the beauties, the Female Holy Sect would also accept this force and provide a considerable amount of support.
For example, they would secretly send experts to help you fight for territories. Every year, your clan could send a group of elites to the peerless treasured land of the Female Holy Sect for cultivation. Or they could sell the top-grade rare divine herbs to you at half price.
All kinds of benefits!
Once they had a connection with the Female Holy Sect, a medium clan would become a great clan within a few hundred years. A great clan would rise to the next level within a few hundred years. If it was a super influential clan, their status would be even more stable.
For all the clans and sects, benefits were above everything else. The clan's development was above everything else.
Even if they knew that the Female Holy Sect didn't have any good intentions, they still swallowed this cake with slow-acting poison.
In order to dominate the Endless Ruins of Gods, the upper echelons of the Female Holy Sect had sacrificed themselves generation after generation. In the eyes of those upper echelons, all the female disciples were expendable.
They had nurtured so many female disciples and didn't even hesitate to forcibly plunder the talented female disciples from some small clans. Wasn't it all for the development of the sect?
They were willing to sacrifice everything so that their sect could dominate the Endless Ruins of Gods.
Lu Ling and Xiang Linglong were the two that were about to be sacrificed. Many patriarchs and even the Clan Master had said in person that the two still didn't want to join the inner sect. The sect was ready to give up on them.
In three years' time, if the two still didn't want to join the inner sect, then they would have to be used as tools to form an alliance through marriage. If they didn't want to marry, then the sect would have no choice but to end their lives.
Lu Ling and Xiang Linglong were well aware of their fate. But what could they do?
Apart from cultivating, there was nothing else they could do.
Lu Ling was a smart girl, but there was nothing she could do at the moment.
Nobody could solve the Female Holy Insect. She was like a housewife who couldn't cook a meal without rice.
Nobody here could count on the Female Holy Sect. Apart from the Celestial Emperor Sect, no other sect could compete with the Female Holy Sect.
Not even the Celestial Emperor Sect would start a war with the Female Holy Sect for no reason. After all, once the war started, both sides would suffer. The Celestial Emperor Sect might lose its power and status as the most powerful sect in the world.
Count on Lu Li?
That was even more impossible. Lu Li had risen to fame recently, but his abilities were limited.
Any patriarch of the Female Holy Sect could crush Lu Li, let alone anything else.
Lu Li was Emperor Rui's disciple. But even if Emperor Rui came, the Female Holy Sect wouldn't give him face.
Unless Lu Li was the Clan Master of the Celestial Emperor Sect as his master …
Lu Ling and Xiang Linglong did not know what to do. They had to cultivate for three years.
If worse came to worst, they would have to die. They would not compromise even at the cost of their lives.
Another three months passed. Of the 18 major sects, two had decided to participate in the Hua Yang Forum. Only five had not said anything.
It had been a long time. If the five sects didn't say anything, it would be a refusal.
The Celestial Emperor Sect was one of them!
Inevitably, many people were disappointed. Without the top disciples of the Celestial Emperor Sect, the Hua Yang Forum's prestige and standard would be reduced.
That being said, it was understandable. The Celestial Emperor Sect didn't need to prove anything. They had always looked down on the Female Holy Sect and they would not allow disciples of the Female Holy Sect to infiltrate the Celestial Emperor Sect.
During the three months, more middle-level families were willing to join. Three days ago, the Female Holy Sect announced that more than one hundred sects, forces, or outstanding young people would be selected. The Hua Yang Forum became unprecedentedly grand.
