284 Liu Yuan’s Note
The decisiveness and determination of Sheng’e’s decision to strip the Vast Sea Pce Master of his position shocked many people.
Before this, the current Sect Master of the Jade Mirage sect could be said to have left very little impression in everyone’s eyes.
After all, before him, there was Ding Luan, who used his body to imprison a demon. After him, there was the shockingly talented Ling Hua.
Moreover, everyone knew that he had be the Sect Master because of Ding Luan’sst will. Otherwise, among the generation of Yu Xu’s direct disciples, Sheng’e was considered to be an ordinary one and had no chance of bing the Sect Master. Therefore, even the Vast Sea Pce Master, Zhi Chunqiu, was more famous than him. Originally, the one with the highest chance of bing the Sect Master was the Vast Sea Pce Master.
Most of his Cmity Crossing cultivation base was due to Ding Luan’s teachings before he left, a small part was due to the Xuanshu Sword, the sect-guarding treasure sword of the Jade Mirage Sect, and the remaining little bit was his own hard work.
It was because of this that he had to give way to the other three Pce Masters again and again, with a trace of guilt that his virtue did not deserve it. He had been weak, and he had made a mess of things.
But now, his two beloved disciples had been persecuted. Although the Vast Sea Pce Master and the other two Pce Masters could be said to be cunning and quick to end the battle, and there were basically no ws in the matter, Sheng’e was not a stupid person. He could naturally see that it was the Vast Sea Pce Master who was causing trouble.
The original Sheng’e had no power to fight back against the Vast Sea Pce Master’s ‘abdication’. However, from the moment the demonic sect suddenly attacked, the situation had a great reversal.
The series of events that followed directly disrupted the Vast Sea Pce Master’s n. With every step taken wrong, he made many mistakes. Now that the Guihuan Elder had joined in on behalf of the Sea shing Tower, it basically dered the end of the Vast Sea Pce Master’s n.
Although he did not know if the Vast Sea Pce Master had a backup n, but…
At this moment, Sheng’e no longer wanted to continue being a muddleheaded old man. He had been doing nothing all his life and only had a few disciples that he was most proud of. Now that he had lost two of them, the anger that he had been holding back for his entire life was instantly filled up. He immediatelyunched an attack on the Vast Sea Pce Master.
Vast Sea Pce Master’s gaze was cold but it disappeared in an instant. Under everyone’s gaze, he said in a deep voice, “The Sect Master’s orders are naturally obeyed. The sect protecting formation failed for no reason and the demonic sect attacked, causing many disciples to die. This is indeed the fault of the Vast Sea Pce. As the Vast Sea Pce Master, I am willing to be punished.”
However, Sheng’e did not expect the Vast Sea Pce Master to give in so easily. He basically did not resist at all and epted his decision so calmly and indifferently.
But now that Sheng’e had made up his mind, his hesitance onlysted for a moment before he nodded. “Where are the others?”
The Scarlet Fire Pce Master’s expression changed slightly. He was quite dissatisfied and wanted to argue on behalf of the Vast Sea Pce Master. However, when the Vast Sea Pce Master turned around and looked at him, he immediately fell silent.
Vast Sea Pce Master looked at Pine Pce Master and his own subordinates and disciples. Although they were unwilling, they said in unison, “We will obey the Sect Master’s orders.”
In the end, itnded on the people from the other sects and the Guihuan Elder.
Did the Vast Sea Pce Master not have any intention of resisting?
There was! In fact, the anger in his heart even burst out with killing intent in an instant. However, one could see clearly that his mind was still clear.
In the current situation, Sheng’e was standing on the big picture. With the seven great sects and the emissaries of the Sea shing Tower present, as the Sect Master of the Jade Mirage Sect, if his orders were refuted by his subordinates, it would definitely damage the dignity of the Jade Mirage Sect. Moreover, their n was facing a huge crisis. If they were to be entangled with Sheng’e, it would be even worse.
It was better to let him have his way first and buy time for himself to carry out his next n. It would also give him some benefits and let him rx his vignce, so that he would not be braver after more setbacks.
He did not expect that this weak Junior Brother who did not have any schemes in the past would also y tricks.
The Vast Sea Pce Master watched as the crowd dispersed and headed towards Pine Pce Hall to receive his punishment. Heughed coldly in his heart.
Even he did not dare to be careless with Xu Xinhong’s poison. Ling yu was considered to be useless today, and the remaining few disciples were either in seclusion or out. Danqing Pce hadpletely lost its support, and the elders were soft-tempered and went with the flow. There was not even a single person to speak up, which could be considered as one less trouble.
Bi Luo mansion was indeed a professional. Their work of framing Ling Hua was wless. When these sects went to investigate, they could not find anything suspicious. Until now, they could only shout, “This matter is suspicious.”
Vast Sea Pce Master’s eyes were dark as he clenched his fist tightly as he looked at the green snake fire seal in his hand.
It was time to contact the people of Bi Luo Mansion again…
If the n went well, he would push all the responsibility to Bi Luo Mansion regardless of the sess or failure. Perhaps, he could even eradicate a big evil sect in the Far East Sea and establish his prestige.
The things that he could not get a few hundred years ago, he would get them back one by one now.
…
Yuan Hongli’s limpid eyes flickered with an orange-red color as they were lit up by the mes. Her expression showed a trace of anticipation and deep fatigue.
She held a red stone high in her hand, on which some wing-like patterns could be vaguely seen. At this moment, it was shining and surrounded by starlight.
In front of her was an ancient stone altar. The red mes rotated and connected into a ring, like a lock. The mes burned brightly and then extinguished in the air, without a trace of life.
“Oh,” The sacrificial altar instantly turned into a pile of fine powder on the ground under Yuan Hongli’s disappointed expression.
Thest trace of hope in her eyes turned into dust. Her expression dimmed as she held the stone and muttered, “Another fake.”
The people behind Yuan Hongli were all men and women, young and old. One of the girls could not help but ask, “Young n Leader, when the phoenix rose from the ashes, it left behind the hundred birds paying homage to the phoenix formation. There are hundreds of fake nests, and it’s difficult to determine them with just an iplete Vermilion Bird Stone. If this goes on, not only will it be time-consuming andborious, but our whereabouts will also be exposed soon. Once the Central ins people discover our identity, I’m afraid…”
Another tall and strong middle-aged man rebuked, “Don’t talk nonsense! The Young n Leader is blessed by the heavens and will definitely be able to find the Nirvana Secret Realm and save our Fusang race.”
The girl shut her mouth in embarrassment.
Yuan Hongling shook her head and put the Vermilion Bird Stone back into her bosom. She then tidied up her cloak and put it on.
Her figure was slender and graceful, coupled with a pair of autumn-like eyes and cloud-like long hair, she had a weak but tenacious temperament. She pursed her lips and said, “Xi He is right. A few days ago, Uncle Bai already discovered that Central ins people were following us. We were just trying to make ast resort in a dead horse. We wanted to try and beg Lord Phoenix to save grandfather, but I was too naive. It’ll be futile if we continue like this. Let’s go back.
The girl named Xi He and the tall and strong middle-aged man were both stunned. They looked at the skinny figure at the back of the line.
“Someone’s following us?” Xi He asked dryly. “Why didn’t Uncle Bai mention it…”
The thin figure raised his head, revealing a twisted face covered in scars. He said indifferently, “If I say it, how can I lure the person following me?”
As soon as he said that, the people on the team were shocked, and they all became alert and took out their weapons.
Uncle Bai’s gaze turned towards the darkness. “However, it seems like we don’t need to lure them.”
A woman in ck suddenly walked out of the darkness and said, “Of course not, I’m only here to deliver a letter.”
“For whom?” Uncle Bai asked.
“The Bi Luo Mansion of the Far East Sea.” Thedy took out a piece of paper and handed it over. “Young n Leader Yuan, pleasee to the Wuyin Cliff and discuss the whereabouts of the phoenix.”
Yuan Hongli’s face was tense. Seeing that Uncle Bai did not do anything, she carefully took the paper and opened it. On it were the words ‘How are the calligraphy and painting? is your scary grandpa doing well?’. She immediately rolled it up and kept it in her sleeve. She said in a deep voice, “Please send a message… Mansion Master, Yuan Hongli will be visiting in a few days.”
In reality, she was extremely surprised as she held the note.
A few months ago, that person had no cultivation at all. How could he suddenly be the Mansion Master of Bi Luo Mansion, or ask the Mansion Master to send a message? It was really incredible… However, on second thought, this person must not be a simple person to be treated with such respect by the Saint.
Yuan Hongling’s face was slightly red. What was with his tone that was not at all distant? What did she mean by ‘scary grandpa’? How could he say that? Her grandfather even admired himter on and even asked her to take this kid under her skirt to embarrass that Xie Qian fellow.
Although her grandfather immediately dropped the subject and took it as a joke, it left a ripple in Yuan Hongling’s heart, who rarely came into contact with the opposite sex.
Now was the time when she needed help the most, and this person actually appeared again. It was like the ripples that spread and gathered, re-flowing into theke of her heart.
