Chapter 269 (1/2)

<hr>

One should know that Daoist Yi Dao, the Peak Master of Broken Sword Peak, had long since been thinking about this plot of land, and he still had the advantage of time and place. According to logic, this land, which was part of Broken Sword Peak’s summit, was naturally Broken Sword Peak’s and therefore his by default.

But Esteemed Huai Yu was really too powerful. Although he didn’t easily leave his dump of a bamboo house, once he did, he was bound to throw the whole Profound Sky Sect into chaos. Coupled with the rumors that Daoist Yi Dao wasn’t Esteemed Huai Yu’s opponent at all, Daoist Yi Dao could only “endure humiliation and live in disgrace” in front of this fellow who seized another person’s home.

The whole Profound Sky Sect knew that Esteemed Huai Yu and Daoist Yi Dao didn’t deal well with each other and since Lin Xuanzhi had been under Daoist Yi Dao before, he naturally knew this as well.

When he was still in Broken Sword Peak, he had heard many of Daoist Yi Dao’s rants about this Esteemed Huai Yu, hatefully mentioning that he was shameless and cheeky, and that he was going to destroy Huai Yu’s old nest or something sooner or later.

Lin Xuanzhi only went up once to the summit of Broken Sword Peak. He was asked by Daoist Yi Dao to borrow spirit gra.s.s. Needless to say, the difficulty of walking out of the illusion fog forest was a given, but Esteemed Huai Yu also teased him for quite a while despite his old age. Fortunately, he finally had enough of playing and gave Lin Xuanzhi the spirit gra.s.s, telling him to get out of here without disturbing his peace.

From then on, Lin Xuanzhi kept away from the person at the summit and almost developed a psychological shadow.

Thinking to this point, Lin Xuanzhi’s surprise gradually turned into depression.

Even if he had only met him once, he felt that Huai Yu, this fellow, was not a decent person.

“Look at your expression. It seems that you’re not quite willing.” Esteemed Lan Yue said, “I know that with the conflict between you and Broken Sword Peak, you naturally wouldn’t allow Yan Tianhen to be used as cannon fodder by them. Although Huai Yu currently resides in Broken Sword Peak, his ability is enough to s.h.i.+eld Yan Tianhen from the wind and rain within Profound Sky Sect. Moreover, he is one of the best pract.i.tioners of both alchemy and elemental cultivation in the five continents. He’s also someone who rebels against the ideas of orthodox Daoist teachings, so only he can both teach Yan Tianhen and protect him at the same time.”

How could Lin Xuanzhi not hear the deeper meaning behind Esteemed Lan Yue’s words?

Esteemed Lan Yue was emphasizing that, according to the temperament of this Esteemed Huai Yu, he definitely wouldn’t expose Yan Tianhen’s ident.i.ty nor hold any untoward opinions towards Yan Tianhen just because he found that Yan Tianhen cultivated both the alchemist and demonic paths. And if Lin Xuanzhi didn’t guess wrong, Esteemed Lan Yue meant that all the same, Esteemed Huai Yu could also provide help to Ah Hen on cultivating the demonic path.

Lin Xuanzhi wasn’t worried that Ah Hen would be bullied after following Esteemed Huai Yu to Broken Sword Peak, but his heart was still a little anxious.

“If you’re still not satisfied with this, then I can only let Yan Tianhen enter Sinking Sword Peak as your servant.” Esteemed Lan Yue didn’t mind. Seeing Lin Xuanzhi’s face was not good, he immediately gave him another choice.

He didn’t care where Yan Tianhen ended up but Lin Xuanzhi was the only one he had to have.

Yan Tianhen’s eyes brightened and he nodded his head rapidly like a chicken pecking rice. He rushed to say, “A servant? I’ll do it!”

“Don’t utter nonsense.” Lin Xuanzhi knocked on Yan Tianhen’s head, “Esteemed Huai Yu is indeed suitable for you. I didn’t take you to Profound Sky Sect to be a servant for me. If you really don’t want to cultivate, you might as well go straight home.”

Realizing Lin Xuanzhi’s angry meaning, Yan Tianhen hurriedly admitted his mistake, “Dage, I was just speaking casually. I’ll go wherever you want me to go.”

Lin Xuanzhi nodded at that.

Wan Yitong raised his brows, “Since you’re willing to let your younger brother follow Esteemed Huai Yu to cultivate, why are you so worried?”

Several people all looked towards Zhan Fengting. Although no one spoke, their eyes clearly questioned: “Are you sure?”

Zhan Fengting choked.

What’s done was done. Putting aside Esteemed Huai Yu’s personality, he was indeed the most suitable person in the entire Profound Sky Sect to teach Yan Tianhen.

According to Esteemed Huai Yu’s free and lazy temperament, he wouldn’t have taken the initiative to accept Yan Tianhen as a disciple. This relations.h.i.+p between Master and disciple probably had Esteemed Lan Yue dragging the two people into it.

Lin Xuanzhi would be ungrateful if he said anything more.

In light of this, Lin Xuanzhi turned to Yan Tianhen and earnestly taught him, “Before going to bed at night, remember to check the doors and windows, and also wear the clothes I specially refined for you to sleep in. It’s better to put multiple arrays and magic weapons outside the door to prevent people from peeping and stealing in. Even in the daytime, when you interact with Esteemed Huai Yu, you should be careful to not be taken advantage of by him.”

Yan Tianhen, “…..”

Zhan Fengting, “…..”

Wan Yitong almost dropped his jaw, and Hai Kuanglang looked surprised.

There was a faint smile on the usually expressionless face of Esteemed Lan Yue. At the same time, he thought,

Lin Xuanzhi nagged Yan Tianhen some more while the latter just nodded his head. Wan Yitong could no longer listen, “I say, Junior Martial Brother, are you nursing a baby?” He continued to interrupt Lin Xuanzhi, “It’s useless for you to explain more. It’s better to let him interact with Martial Uncle Huai Yu and find out for himself.”

Hai Kuanglang also despised his actions, “A big man being so nagging and awkward. Do you think you’re his mother?”

Yan Tianhen held Lin Xuanzhi’s arm and grimaced at Hai Kuanglang, “My Dage cares for me. It’s useless for you guys to envy me.”

Hai Kuanglang clicked his tongue, “…“

This brat was really asking for a beating, but that was pretty similar to Huai Yu’s personality. . He just didn’t know whether or not Huai Yu would teach Yan Tianhen to be shameless to the extreme in the future.

Just then, a ringing laughter came from behind Lin Xuanzhi.

“Hey, our Youngest Martial Brother is here.”
