Chapter 56 (1/2)
What made the wide-robed elder even ht of revenge! The wide-robed elder ell aware of the shady business that went on within the sect and between its disciples To hi live bait for the beast-slayingto ga, after all It had been Hou Qing who used dirty methods first, so what did it matter if he was indeed killed by another person in the process? Yet this wo the rules of the sect
To say the least, if you had to avenge him, don't make such a scene out of it!
Now, not only did everyone know that Fang Xing had been used as bait, they would also be aware of the secret relationshi+p between her and Hou Qing For the sect, this was nothing other than a scandal
One es and relationshi+ps between disciples, they did not condone such private affairs As far as the sect was concerned, a disciple would only be eligible to openly speak about e or after they had left to return to their clans and families
”How dare you! If this boy has spoken the truth, you are an accomplice as well Nevermind, you are a disciple at the Danxia Valley; I shall not punish you personally Instead, I will ask the chief elder of the valley to come and fetch you” The wide-robed elder threw a talisman into the air and it flew off in the direction of the Danxia Valley
”A disciple from the Danxia Valley came to our Yunyin Summit to kill someone?”
”Hey, isn't that the Fang Xing? I heard he's friends with shi+xiong Meng Xuanzhao…”
”Shhh, ould shi+xiong Xuanzhao get on the bad side of so to lose his shi+eld of protection”
”Yeah, no matter what the reason is, nobody should offend someone from the Danxia Valley!”
Within the Yunyin Summit, the onlookers quietly whispered about the scene before them To them, the disciples from the Danxia Valley must not be offended by any means, as they held the key to extend the path of cultivation through their skills in alchemy
While everyone discussed a towards the surew closer, it revealed itself as a giant crane with its wings spread outward as it flew at an extreme speed Atop the crane sat an expressionless yet re a snohite dress
”It— it's shi+jie Linyun!” Someone let out a low shout that caused everyone to look up towards this legend-like core disciple
Once Xu Linyun had coave a courteous bow to the wide-robed elder ”Dear Elder Hong, may I ask what has happened here?” she asked in a low voice
”It's you, Linyun? Where is your shi+fu?” The wide-robed elder was also polite, not speaking to her lightly even though she was eneration within the sect In fact, his behavior towards her was because Xu Linyun was only one tier below hihter than most of the elders within the sect Because of this, these elders would usually treat these core disciples with politeness
Xu Linyun answered, ”Dear shi+fu is having ajust finished crafting a cauldron of Foundation Pellets[1] As the lead disciple of Danxia Valley, I have come here on my dear shi+fu's behalf”
The wide-robed elder nodded ”You are the sect's core disciple Indeed, you do have the power to handle thisso it over towards Xu Linyun, a her-tiered cultivators However, since the elder did not know the whole story, he hadhad just said
As soon as Xu Linyun finished listening to theto the side of the woman that had been bound down by the [Immortal's Snare] ”Lin Qinxue[2]! Why did you make such a mess as soon as you were out of seclusion?”
The white-dressed woman named Lin Qinxue could only titter as she murmured out, ”It was exactly because I had only found out about it after I cae him…”
Xu Linyun knit her brows and turned instead to the wide-robed elder ”Elder Hong, Lin Qinxue has been beside dear shi+fu for the past forty-nine days in seclusion with her in order to look after the cauldron I believe hermentally and physically exhausted from the seclusion Please kindly excuse her actions today, as I will personally bring her back to Danxia Valley for soh discipline”
Elder Hong knew that the so-called ”tough discipline” was nothing more than pretty words, but Danxia Valley had always been like this, had always been exempted from certain rules of the sect; it was outside his power Besides, he did not want to offend Danxia Valley chief elder Qin'nyao for a sentle nod of his head ”Please do”
”Thank you, Elder Hong” With a sweet s towards the white-dressed woman
Elder Hong sighed With a wave of his sleeve, the rope that had been wrapped around Lin Qinxue automatically returned back to where it had coained her freedo firain
”You shameful person, once you're back at the valley, we'll see how shi+fu disciplines you! Hurry and cohtly tapped the neck of the crane and it flew closer towards Lin Qinxue
With a faint smile, Lin Qinxue sloalked towards the white crane As soon as she walked past Fang Xing, she let out a soft h to herself, ”Since I've already broken the sect's rules, I may as well kill him”
As Lin Qinxue spoke, her handeveryone present to be surprised She was too close to Fang Xing for Elder Hong to stop her this ti's body moved
