Chapter 259: Dispute! (1/2)

A few days later, in Kunlun’s discussion hall, all the upper management of the sect had gathered and they all displayed an astonished look on their faces. A disciple of theirs had come to give a report. They had located the soul artifact[1], but before they could even celebrate, they heard even more astonishing news.

“Reporting to Sect Master, Senior Brother Yun Feng has obtained news of the soul artifact, but there is even more important news,” This disciple of theirs had long known of the hatred Sect Master had for Cheng Yu. Once he were to report the news to Sect Master, the Sect Master would definitely fly into a rage again.

“What important news? Speak!” Yuan Yangzi heard the news of the soul artifact, so his face was replaced with a smile.

“This…Cheng Yu didn’t die. Furthermore…furthermore…” That disciple stuttered.

“What more?” Yuan Yangzi heard Cheng Yu was still alive, so he immediately got angry.

“Furthermore, Cheng Yu has already advanced to the Golden Core Realm. The soul artifact is in his hand,” The disciple lowered his head, not daring to look at Yuan Yangzi.

“Golden Core Realm? How is this possible? Wasn’t he injured by Feng Qingzi? How did he advance into the Golden Core Realm so quickly?” Yuan Yangzi was furious yet surprised. Although he had considered the fact that Cheng Yu might still be alive, he hadn’t placed much importance to it. With Yun Feng and Yun Hai around, an injured Foundation Establishment late stage cultivator was like an ant to them.

However, even if Cheng Yu was a Golden Core initial stage culivator, two Golden Core middle stage cultivators were sufficient to eliminate Cheng Yu. So, Yuan Yangzi questioned, ”Since Cheng Yu is still alive and is holding onto the soul artifact, why did Yun Feng and Yun Hai not make their move? Don’t tell me they couldn’t even handle a Golden Core initial stage cultivator?”

Yuan Yangzi was extremely dissatisfied with Yun Feng and Yun Hai’s performance right now. Since they had located Cheng Yu, they should have killed him immediately and brought back the soul artifact. What need was there for them to transmit such news? Could it be that they want to take on more credit for their achievement? Yuan Yangzi subconsciously looked at Elder Ping. Elder Ping tensed up, and didn’t speak. He was also baffled by the situation. Since they had already investigated the problem, they should have just eliminated Cheng Yu. For what did they need to report such news?

“This…this…” The disciple did not dare to speak again.

“Speak! If you continue to be so useless, I will cripple you!” Yuan Yangzi yelled discontentedly.

“Yes…yes…, Senior Brother Yun Feng’s letter said that after Cheng Yu had advanced into Golden Core Realm, his strength had improved by leaps and bounds. Yesterday, he had fought against a dozen Golden Core experts alone and was even able to escape unscathed. Therefore…therefore, Senior Brother Yun Feng hopes Sect Master could send more people out to provide assistance!”

“What? Fighting against a dozen Golden Core experts alone and was even able to escape unscathed? Is he joking with me?” Yuan Yangzi was angered further. He felt that Yun Feng was just being nonsensical. It was impossible for a freshly advanced Golden Core cultivator, regardless of how powerful he was, to fight against a dozen Golden Core experts. Even Godlen Core late stage experts were only able to forcefully fight against three other equivalent realm cultivators. Fighting against a dozen similar realm experts was something that they never dreamt of. To say Cheng Yu had such ability, wasn’t Yun Feng just being nonsensical?

“Elder Ping, this is the disciple you personally taught? A newly advanced Golden Core expert was able to fight against a dozen Golden Core experts, do you believe his words?” At this moment, it was a great opportunity for Elder Cheng to strike Elder Ping. So, he reprimanded Elder Ping in front of everyone.

“This…” Elder Ping’s face was turning from red to white. He had no idea how to explain himself. Did he believe him? Of course not! He had never heard of such a thing before in the Cultivation World, but he knew Yun Feng well. He wasn’t someone who would speak without thinking. Elder Ping shouted at the disciple kneeling on the ground, ”Are you sure this news came from the letter Yun Feng had sent us?”

“Reporting to Elder Ping, disciple is sure that this was written in Senior Brother Yun Feng’s letter. Senior Brother had also mention another point that Cheng Yu has three golden cores!” That disciple suddenly thought of something as he added.

“What? Three golden cores? Did he really say so?” Yuan Yangzi questioned anxiously.

“Yes, Sect Master.”

“Sect Master, I think this Yun Feng is just spouting nonsense. Since when have there been people who possess two golden cores or more. I am starting to doubt Yun Feng’s ability to handle this task,” Elder Cheng snorted disdainfully. Three golden cores? Wasn’t this ridiculous?

“No!” At this moment, Yuan Yangzi was the first to deny it.

“Sect Master, could it be that you believe there will be someone who possesses three golden cores? This is just pure absurdity,” Elder Cheng was actually flabbergasted by Yuan Yangzi’s reaction.

“Did Yun Feng send any other news?” Yuan Yangzi didn’t reply back to Elder Cheng but questioned the kneeling disciple.

“No more. Senior Brother only requested for reinforcements.”

“Alright, you can go down first,” Yuan Yangzi waved his hand.

“Sect Master, could there really be someone who possess three golden cores in this world?” Elder Qing inquired when he saw Yuan Yangzi’s expression had turned grave, a facial expression that seem to be worried.
