"You're … You're Wang Tao!" At that moment, one of the outer sect disciples in the area remembered Su Ming's appearance in the midst of hesitation. He remembered the legendary blood moon!
Almost at the instant he said those words, surprise appeared on the faces of the other disciples in the area. They looked at Su Ming. Wang Tao's name was like thunder in their ears.
It did not matter whether it was during the Seven Moons Disaster or when Wang Tao had been chosen to enter the inner sect. They might not have heard anything about him since then, but every single time Ye Long challenged the Dao Divinity Shadow Descension Rune, he would say that he wanted Wang Tao to challenge him. All of this caused Wang Tao's name … to exist forever in Seven Moons Sect.
"Wang Tao! It's him!"
"I remember now! The reason Grand Honor Attendant Chen was able to advance was because he guided Wang Tao into the Inner Sect. Because of that, Wang Tao was chosen to join the Inner Sect, and Grand Honor Attendant Chen became a grand honor attendant!"
As the people in the area burst into an uproar, Su Ming's expression remained the same. He cast a glance at Old Chen, who seemed nervous but had a hint of resentment hidden in his eyes.
"I want this person!" Su Ming lifted his right hand and pointed at Bei Qiong.
Bei Qiong's expression changed, and he instinctively took a few steps back. Terror appeared on his face.
Old Chen was silent. After some time, a resolute look appeared on his face. When he looked at Su Ming, he spoke with a smile.
"It has been many years since we last met, so it's naturally not a problem for us to meet over such a small matter. But … Bei Qiong is my disciple. Um … Brother Wang, if you forcefully take him, you will be breaking the sect rules." While speaking, Old Chen brought out a jade slip with his right hand. Once he squeezed it gently, a smile bloomed on his face. He had already made his decision in his heart.
'Wang Tao, oh Wang Tao, I told you that you came under a sect elder's tutelage. Forget whether it's true or not, but even if it's true, you still have to obey the sect rules. You're breaking the sect rules by forcing an outer sect disciple to do something like this!' Old Chen laughed coldly in his heart. At that moment, he forced down his previous nervousness, and killing intent rose in him.
However, he wanted to kill Su Ming fair and square. He wanted to use the rules of the school to punish Su Ming. By doing so, even if the Sect Elders came to interfere, he would still be standing on the side of the school rules, and it would not affect him.
Su Ming's expression remained the same. He no longer looked at Old Chen. He took a step forward and walked towards Bei Qiong. Bei Qiong's expression changed. Just as he was about to retreat, Old Chen grabbed him and pushed him towards Su Ming.
"Don't be afraid. If you don't want to, no one can force you. He is not an elder, nor is he a deacon. He doesn't have the qualifications to take you away! If he forcefully takes you away, then he will have broken the rules of the sect! "Old Chen enunciated each word clearly as he stared at Su Ming.
"But … But he …" Just as Bei Qiong was about to speak, Su Ming closed in on him and smiled faintly at him. He lifted his right hand and swung his arm, immediately grabbing Bei Qiong's arm. With a single move, he prepared to leave.
Old Chen's eyes lit up. He immediately took a few steps forward and shouted, "Wang Tao, how dare you! Do you really dare to break the rules of the school?! I might be acquainted with you, but I can't ignore you breaking the rules of the school!"
"The thirty-seventh rule of the school states that in Seven Moons Sect, besides the sect elders and deacons, no one is allowed to interfere with the training of the outer sect disciples, much less force them to do anything. This is the protection for the outer sect disciples, because the outer sect disciples are the foundation for Seven Moons Sect to continuously become stronger!
"Wang Tao, if you don't stop, I will report this to the sect, and they will punish you! And everything you've done has been recorded by me! " Old Chen took a few more steps forward, and his cultivation base spread out with a bang. When he lifted his right hand, the jade slip on his palm was revealed!
Su Ming cast Old Chen a cold glance. He did not speak. He grabbed the screaming Bei Qiong and turned into a long arc, intending to leave.
"Master, save me! Master, this scoundrel … He … He doesn't have a shadow! He's a sect member who has mastered the Seven Lives Art!" Bei Qiong's expression was filled with terror. He quickly screamed shrilly. Once he said those words, the disciples in the area immediately looked towards Su Ming. Old Chen was also momentarily stunned. When he looked over, his pupils shrank.
"Even if he has mastered the Seven Lives Art, so what? Does that mean that he can break the rules of the school?! And … Wang Tao, you broke another rule! In Seven Moons Sect, besides the sect elders, no one is allowed to fly!
"Only we deacons have the right to temporarily fly when we have to deal with important matters!" Old Chen bit down on the rules of the school. As he spoke, he leaped up and charged towards Su Ming. At the instant he flew up, dozens of long arcs charged over from the distance.
All of them were deacons of the outer sect. They had received a message, and at that moment, they rushed over. The person in the lead was the white-robed scholar. He had been a head deacon in the past, but due to Ye Long, he was now the master of the outer sect. When he arrived, there was an awe-inspiring look on his face.
"Stop!" His voice rumbled like thunder. Once it reverberated in all directions, he saw Su Ming and Bei Qiong in his hands.
"Sect Master, this person has repeatedly broken the rules of the school. First, he came to the outer sect to forcefully capture a disciple. Then, he flew on his own even though he's not a deacon or a sect elder. I couldn't persuade him otherwise, so please make a decision, Sect Master! This is the proof. " When Old Chen saw the white-robed scholar, he immediately laughed coldly in his heart. He would definitely teach Wang Tao a lesson and let him know that he was not someone to be trifled with.
As he spoke, he flung the jade slip, and it charged towards the white-robed scholar. Once the scholar caught it, he frowned and looked at Su Ming.
Su Ming was in midair, but he was in no hurry to leave. Instead, he stood calmly and watched Old Chen's previous nervousness turn into arrogance.
The white-robed scholar frowned and cast a glance at the ground beneath him. At that moment, there were quite a number of disciples who had surrounded the area and were watching what was happening. He was slightly displeased with Old Chen's actions. While they had to obey the rules of the sect, there were times when most people did not pay too much attention to them.
For example, when an inner sect disciple appeared to capture an outer sect disciple, as long as the act was not too overboard, they would usually not pay much attention to it. After all, inner sect disciples were much nobler, and this sort of thing happened frequently, such as needing a furnace or an outer sect disciple to become a servant. There were too many of these things, and they could not manage all of them.
Yet Old Chen had seized the opportunity and refused to let it go, which put the middle-aged scholar in a slightly difficult position. If he targeted Su Ming based on the rules of the sect, he would naturally offend the sect elder behind him.
Besides … the middle-aged scholar had also recognized Su Ming. He was the disciple who had been with Ye Long in the past. The middle-aged scholar also had his own information, and he knew things about Su Ming that others did not know. He had heard that Su Ming had joined Sect Elder Lan.
"Junior brother Wang, how about this? Hand this outer sect disciple over to me, and I'll handle this matter. What do you think? As for the other matters, junior brother Wang hasn't returned for many years, and he acted on impulse. We can talk about this," the middle-aged scholar said to Su Ming with a faint smile.
A glint appeared in Old Chen's eyes, and he let out a cold harrumph.
"Sect Master, you cannot do this. Since Wang Tao has broken the rules of the sect, he must be dealt with, or else if other people keep coming to learn from him, what will happen to us? Right now, we are in front of so many disciples. Sect Master, please be impartial!" Old Chen immediately said. Since he had already offended Su Ming, and since Su Ming had something on him, he would definitely not let it go so easily. As long as he had something on him, he would be much safer in the future. At the very least, if Su Ming decided to target him, he would have something to say.
Su Ming smiled faintly in midair. His expression did not change at all. At that moment, he asked faintly, "Oh? What sort of rules did I break?"
The old man named Chen laughed coldly, but before he could finish speaking, his face suddenly filled with unprecedented disbelief. The white-robed scholar and the surrounding honchos' faces also fell. "Do you need me to repeat myself?" he said. "First, you violated the rule that forbids flying. Second, you captured an Outer Sect disciple. You …." The old man named Chen laughed coldly, but before he could finish speaking, his face suddenly filled with unprecedented disbelief.
As for the disciples in the area, they were still in a daze, even though they had also seen … Su Ming swing his left hand, and a blue plate appeared in his hand!
They did not know what the token was, but the old man named Chen, the white-robed scholar, and the dozens of outer sect deacons clearly knew what the token represented!
It … could be said to be a supreme plate in Seven Moons Sect. Only sect elders could have it, and once they had it, their status could be said to have stepped into the peak of Seven Moons Sect!
Above them were the great sect elders who were in charge of the sect and the twelve sleeping great sect elders. Besides these thirteen people, there was no one else who could surpass the person with the plate in terms of status in the sect. At most … they could only be on equal footing with the person with the plate.
Before the person with the plate, sect rules and sect laws were all a joke! If he wanted to fly, he could fly. Forget about capturing an outer sect disciple, he could even kill the few of them. He could even expel them from the sect with just a single word.
"I am Xu Yi, the Sect Master of the Outer Sect. Greetings, Sect Elder Wang." As the white-robed scholar's expression changed, he wrapped his fist in his palm and bowed deeply to Su Ming without any hesitation.
"We greet Sect Elder Wang!" The dozens of attendants behind the white-robed scholar bowed to Su Ming together with nervous and respectful expressions.
As for the outer sect disciples in the area, they fell into a daze and quickly knelt down to worship Su Ming.
"Greetings, Sect Elder Wang." Even the people beside Old Chen bowed to Su Ming nervously. Only Old Chen's face was pale at that moment. There was disbelief on his face. He had not expected that Su Ming … would be a sect elder!
This was something he could not even dream of. In his eyes, Su Ming was at most a sect elder's disciple, but at that moment … he shuddered and quickly lowered his head. Anxiety and fear instantly returned to him, and he wrapped his fist in his palm and bowed deeply to Su Ming.
"Greetings … Sect Elder Wang …"
