Chapter 70 Vivi
Chapter 70 Vivi
A gentle breeze stirred, causing petals to flutter up from the cliff top, creating a white rain of blossoms that danced around the two women, making them appear like fairies among flowers.
Yao Xi's beautiful eyes widened. She really didn't expect that her junior sister, who had only joined the Yao Guang Holy Land a few years ago, would discover the Yao Guang Holy Land's biggest secret.
How could she not be surprised?
As Weiwei recounted her story, Yao Xi learned that the junior sister she valued actually possessed the Celestial Eye, and had discovered the anomalies of the Yao Guang Holy Land from the very beginning.
The origin of a cultivator who practices the Devouring Heaven Demon Art is extremely special compared to that of ordinary cultivators, which is very obvious to the immortal spirit.
This Yao Guang Holy Land looks suspicious, especially the high-ranking members. Their primordial aura is extremely chaotic, clearly not their own.
At that time, Weiwei almost ran away, but fortunately she was taken in as a disciple by a powerful figure from Yao Xi's lineage, and according to Weiwei's observation, there was nothing unusual about this lineage.
She stayed in the Yao Guang Holy Land, but always kept her distance from those problematic individuals.
From the moment she discovered it, Weiwei was very careful and concealed the special nature of her Celestial Eye. As it turned out, this action was absolutely correct in hindsight.
Over the past two years, she has gradually perused ancient books and, combined with the behavior of those people in the Holy Land, has guessed that they are a ruthless lineage that cultivates the Devouring Heaven Demon Art.
This startled Weiwei quite a bit. She had a special constitution and was afraid that she might accidentally expose herself and attract the interest of those people.
She kept this result to herself and dared not mention it to anyone else.
For the past two years, she had been secretly observing and confirmed that Yao Xi's lineage was not the same as the Ruthless lineage. In addition, with the recent anomalies in the Holy Land, she chose to confront Yao Xi.
"You're very good. Not only are you exceptionally talented, but you're also so smart. Your actions saved you," Yao Xi praised Weiwei.
"I am deeply grateful for your care over the past few years, Senior Sister. I am willing to stand with you through thick and thin!" Weiwei said earnestly.
Yao Xi nodded, feeling very satisfied. She knew that Weiwei trusted her completely to reveal everything about her.
As their mutual trust deepened, they became more comfortable discussing sensitive topics.
"Senior Sister, has something happened to the Holy Lord and the others?" Weiwei asked with a solemn expression.
Yao Xi nodded: "If nothing unexpected happens, they should have already perished..."
Weiwei was somewhat surprised. As the saying goes, the bystander sees most of the game. During this period, there had been absolutely no news of the Holy Lord of Yaoguang and the others in the Northern Region.
The rumors about Emperor Wushi in Zishan were rampant, and important figures from various holy lands, including the Holy Lord himself, were present, but the Holy Lord of Yaoguang and others were nowhere to be seen.
Having neither appeared in the Northern Region nor returned to the Yao Guang Holy Land, Weiwei, combining this with the recent unusual behavior of the Holy Land's high-ranking officials, deduced that their Holy Lord and his party were likely in grave danger.
After hesitating for a moment, Weiwei cautiously asked, "Did you senior sisters do it?"
Yao Xi shook her head with a wry smile, a hint of helplessness on her stunningly beautiful face, and said, "If we had that strength, the Holy Land wouldn't have become like this..."
Weiwei nodded, a relieved expression on her face. She had been guessing for some time that there was a power struggle between the two sides in the Holy Land, but now it seemed that this was not the case at all.
After pondering for a moment, Yao Xi told Weiwei her thoughts, wanting to see who the ruthless lineage would target next. She planned to follow the clues and try to contact them.
"Great idea!" Weiwei's eyes lit up.
……
Just as Yao Xi and Weiwei were plotting, Hua Yunfei, far away at the Tai Xuan Sect, stood in a grand hall.
He stared expressionlessly at the imprisoned old man before him.
This person is named Du Yuan, and he is another powerful figure from the Tai Xuan Sect, besides Ma Shan, who has sided with the Ruthless Man's lineage.
Besides Hua Yunfei, his grandfather, the Master of Xingfeng, and the head of the Taixuan Sect were also present in the main hall.
After receiving the news from Ma Shan, Hua Yunfei and the God King immediately returned to the Tai Xuan Sect.
Using the methods of the God King, Du Yuan was captured without anyone noticing, and the head of the Tai Xuan Sect and the master of Xingfeng were summoned.
Ma Shan had a special identity; he was the master of the Star Peak Master. In order to avoid embarrassing his grandfather, Hua Yunfei had the God King kill him directly.
But Du Yuan didn't have so many scruples. Although he was also a Supreme Elder of the sect, he didn't have many entanglements with the sect. Hua Yunfei kept him as evidence and handed him over to the sect leader.
In any case, Hua Yunfei needed to inform the sect leader about his plan to eliminate two powerful experts from the sect.
Otherwise, the Tai Xuan Sect will be in big trouble.
At this moment, the Tai Xuan Sect Leader, who had personally searched Du Yuan's sea of consciousness and confirmed everything, was furious. He pointed at Du Yuan's nose and cursed him for being a traitor.
He never imagined that a powerful figure within his sect would collude with outsiders to harm his own disciples, completely disregarding him.
This is a blatant slap in the face to him! Under his rule, the Tai Xuan Sect has become like this!
"Sect Leader, after we captured Ma Shan, he was filled with shame and indignation. Knowing he had no face to see you again, he has taken his own life," Hua Yunfei said expressionlessly.
The Tai Xuan Sect Leader was taken aback upon hearing this, then waved his hand: "Good riddance! This kind of person died too late!"
Jiang Taixu, standing to the side, was speechless. What do you mean by suicide? He was the one who helped!
"Sect Leader, what should we do with Elder Du?" the Star Peak Master asked with a gloomy expression.
He was in a bad mood. He hadn't expected that his master would actually get involved in this matter. He also understood that Hua Yunfei hadn't brought Ma Shan back mainly to save face for him.
Upon hearing this, the Tai Xuan Sect Leader shook his head: "If you've already killed the other one, what's the point of keeping this one alive?"
"It was suicide..." Hua Yunfei reminded him.
"Oh, right, right, suicide. Then let him commit suicide too..."
"..."
"No! You can't do this to me!" At this moment, Du Yuan, who had been silent all along, spoke up.
He hadn't expected these people to actually kill him! You must know that powerful experts are extremely valuable to the Tai Xuan Sect, and there are only about ten of them in total.
Every death is one less.
He originally thought that at most he would be imprisoned for life, but he didn't expect these people to have such murderous intentions.
"I shed blood for Tai Xuan, I risked my life for Tai Xuan!" Du Yuan shouted unwillingly, but nothing could change anything.
With a flick of the God King's finger, Du Yuan turned into ashes with a "poof".
The Tai Xuan Sect Leader's pupils contracted, only now realizing how terrifying the person beside Hua Yunfei truly was.
"Yunfei, who is this...?" he hurriedly asked. His attention had been drawn to what Hua Yunfei had said, and he hadn't had a chance to inquire about Jiang Taixu's identity.
Even as the head of the Tai Xuan Sect, he was stunned upon learning of Jiang Taixu's name, and then quickly performed a grand ceremony of worship.
The Lord of Star Peak was much calmer, as Hua Yunfei had mentioned to him when he returned.
Jiang Taixu did not linger; there was no need for him to stay here any longer. He went straight back to Zhuofeng and pondered, in accordance with the Dao of Nature, how to live a second life.
"Yunfei, now that we've completely broken ties with the Ruthless Clan, they'll definitely retaliate. What should we do next?"
After learning about the entanglement between Hua Yunfei and the Ruthless Man's lineage, the leader of the Tai Xuan Sect was deeply worried.
