131: Changing faces like turning pages of a book
At this moment, a Disciple came to report.
“The Dharma Boat has already docked above our Shen Jian Sect, and the arrivals are Xuanxiao Sect Disciples.”
“I know that.”
Sect Leader Liang flicked his sleeve and stood up.
Although he couldn't understand what Shen Qingqiu was planning, he had to go out and meet them now.
All the Elders followed the Sect Master and left the main hall.
Xie Xuan also followed closely; to be honest, he was quite eager to witness Shen Qingqiu’s demeanor.
It would be even better if he could exchange pointers!
Everyone arrived outside the main hall.
They saw a thunderous sound explode in the sky.
Xie Xuan couldn't help but look up and saw a huge, luxurious Dharma Boat descending from the clouds.
On the Dharma Boat, three figures stood side by side, their expressions stern, their robes flapping loudly in the strong wind.
“Huo Tianyi? Why is he here?!”
Xie Xuan recognized one of the figures standing on the left, who was none other than Huo Tianyi, the Senior Brother of Lingjian Peak of Xuanxiao Sect, with whom he had once fought and whose Sword Heart he had shattered.
Now that he had come to Shen Jian Sect, he must have recovered his Sword Heart and intended to wipe away his previous shame.
However.
“I never consider those who have been defeated by me as opponents. I give you time to catch up, until you are beyond reach!”
Xie Xuan said proudly.
Sect Leader Liang, the Sect Master of Shen Jian Sect, glanced at his Disciple, his lips curving slightly upwards, nodding in satisfaction.
Right! Just like that!
A Disciple of Shen Jian Sect should have an invincible Heart!
When he turned his head to look at the descending Dharma Boat, the light in his eyes flickered slightly again.
This era was a golden age.
Genius Prodigies emerged one after another.
Only true Geniuses could stand out in this great golden age, but similarly, this golden age was not ordinary.
Geniuses were categorized.
One type was called Genius, and the other was called Shen Qingqiu.
Before other Geniuses had even grown up, Shen Qingqiu was able to use his absolute strength to suppress these older generation powerhouses, making them unable to breathe.
How could other Geniuses compete with that?
Once the Immortal Ascension Road opened, who could contend with Shen Qingqiu?
It could be said that the Immortal Ascension Road of this era had already been reserved by Shen Qingqiu when he appeared.
All other Geniuses were merely foils.
“I hope Xuan'er can see this point.” Sect Leader Liang sighed in his Heart, then turned to look at the three people descending from the Dharma Boat.
“I, Liang, have been waiting here for a long time, Fellow Daoist Shen, please come with me into the hall for a discussion!”
Sect Leader Liang adopted a very humble posture, not putting on the airs of the Sect Master of Shen Jian Sect, but addressing him as Fellow Daoist.
“Senior Brother Shen didn’t come. This time, I came to once again seek guidance from Senior Brother Xie… Oh dear!”
Before Huo Tianyi could finish speaking, he received two slaps to the back of his head.
The ones who struck him were Chu Mo and Li Tian Ce.
Chu Mo leaned in and whispered to him through a voice transmission: “Are you stupid? You don't even know how to use someone else's prestige? Their current good attitude is because of Senior Brother Shen Qingqiu, not out of politeness.”
Sure enough, just as Chu Mo finished his voice transmission.
In front, Sect Leader Liang’s expression changed, and the Second Elder beside him, observing his expression, smiled knowingly.
He took a step forward and questioned the three.
“Are your Disciples of Lingjian Peak of Xuanxiao Sect of such low quality? Visiting other Sects without even a formal invitation, directly trespassing, do you know that for such behavior, even if we were to treat you as Demonic Path and eliminate you, no one in the world would say anything?”
Huo Tianyi knew he was in the wrong and wanted to step forward to explain.
Chu Mo grabbed his wrist and dragged him to Li Tian Ce’s side, while looking at the Second Elder.
“I am not a Disciple of Lingjian Peak; I am a Disciple of Xiao Zhu Peak, Han Li. I came to Shen Jian Sect this time to deliver a message for Senior Brother, but from your words, it seems your Shen Jian Sect doesn’t welcome us much. If that’s the case, then so be it, we’ll head back now!”
Having said that.
Chu Mo led the other two, making a move to leave.
Sect Leader Liang saw this and became anxious.
If he let the three go back and tell Shen Qingqiu that their Shen Jian Sect didn’t welcome Xiao Zhu Peak Disciples, then next time, when Shen Qingqiu came to their door with a sword, how would they face him?
They couldn't win, they would just get beaten!
“Whoosh—!”
Sect Leader Liang disappeared from his original spot, and when he reappeared, he was already in front of the three.
With a smile on his face, he said: “Three, visitors are guests, and moreover, Fellow Daoist Shen also asked you to deliver a message to my Shen Jian Sect. Come, let’s go to the Clear Heart Hall, we’ll discuss it in detail there!”
Although Sect Leader Liang appeared very enthusiastic.
However, Chu Mo was not going to let him off easily.
“That Elder just now said that we trespassed into Shen Jian Sect and that he wanted to eliminate us as Demonic Path.”
As soon as the words fell.
The Second Elder only felt a chill down his spine; if Shen Qingqiu came looking for him with a sword, he feared his old bones would be left there.
Wiping away non-existent sweat beads from his forehead, he excused himself: “This old man, a few days ago, sparred with a demoness from Bai Mei Sect, and I lost. A Heart Demon arose, so I spoke some nonsense.”
Sparred with a demoness from Bai Mei Sect?
Lost?
How did you spar with a demoness, elaborate!
Chu Mo and the other two looked at the Second Elder with extremely strange expressions; they never expected this old man to still be so vigorous in his old age!
Sect Leader Liang glared fiercely at the Second Elder. He was very angry about the Second Elder’s rash words, which indirectly put him and others at a disadvantage.
These three came on Shen Qingqiu’s Dharma Boat, so they must have some connection with Shen Qingqiu.
Also, if you're going to make an excuse, make a better one!
What does ‘sparred with a demoness from Bai Mei Sect’ even mean?!
What kind of sparring were you doing?
Does my Shen Jian Sect still need its reputation?
This Second Elder is truly unreliable!
However, the other party was still an Elder of Shen Jian Sect, with his interests tied to Shen Jian Sect.
As the Sect Master, he still had to say a word or two.
“Second Elder failed his Breakthrough, and his mind has been a bit abnormal recently, often speaking nonsense. The three of you don’t need to mind him.”
“Come, I’ll take the three of you to the Clear Heart Hall!”
“The message brought by Fellow Daoist Shen is not simple! We must analyze it step by step and discuss it thoroughly!”
Just as Sect Leader Liang was about to take the three to the Clear Heart Hall for discussion, Xie Xuan, the Senior Brother of Shen Jian Sect, blocked their way.
“Huo Tianyi, your purpose in coming to Shen Jian Sect is me, isn’t it? Are you still not giving up?”
