Since Li Mu was the sect master, he naturally wasn't a nice guy.
In a normal and stable world, a nice guy couldn't be the leader. That was because the competition between people was out there and a nice guy couldn't adapt to such intense competition.
The Mixed Energy World was full of danger and there were demons and devils everywhere. There was no room for a nice guy to survive.
Li Mu only liked to appear gentle and elegant, but he was very decisive and tough on the inside.
The Wind Lightning Sect's Wind Lightning Sect's Wind Lightning Arts were too violent. It was easy to incite violent emotions in people.
Azure Wood City was built naturally to ease the emotions of cultivators and let them maintain a peaceful state of mind.
Bai Huan was a rank seven cultivator and had never left the Spirit Pearl City in his life. He didn't know much. That was why he had the misconception that Li Mu was easy to talk to.
Li Mu could usually maintain this peaceful state and rarely lost his composure. However, Gao Zhengyang's letter was too overbearing and Li Mu couldn't accept it.
The Wind Thunder Flag was the Divine Weapon of the Wind Thunder Sect and the foundation of the sect. The Wind Thunder Flag was to remove the foundation of the Wind Thunder Sect.
Li Mu was decisive and tough, but he was also shrewd enough. Even if it was the death of his wife and father, he could tolerate it when necessary. He couldn't tolerate Gao Zhengyang wanting to take the Wind Thunder Flag.
That was why his expression changed and he was full of killing intent.
Bai Huan was a rank seven cultivator and he was good at fighting within the sect, but he was scared to the point of peeing his pants when he met a Golden Core Cultivator like Li Mu.
Li Mu was even more annoyed when he saw Bai Huan's expression. How dare this guy come to the Wind Thunder Sect to threaten him? What was Gao Zhengyang thinking?
Li Mu suppressed the killing intent in his heart and said in a low voice, "What does your sect master want?"
Bai Huan wasn't stupid. He forced a smile and nodded, "Sect Master Li, I don't know anything. I'm just a messenger."
Li Mu sneered, "Then let me ask you, is it Xuan Yang's idea to borrow the Wind Thunder Flag or the Dao Institute's?"
Bai Huan's face paled and his heart almost exploded. Gao Zhengyang actually wanted the Wind Thunder Banner, and he even dared to ask Li Mu for it. This was too arrogant.
"I don't know. This isn't what the Dao College thinks either …"
Bai Huan hurriedly shook his head in denial. He definitely wouldn't take the blame for this, but he also didn't dare to directly throw it at Gao Zhengyang.
Gao Zhengyang had killed three Hall Masters in front of Xuan Shi. This made everyone understand who was in charge of the Dao College.
Xuan Shi was easy to talk about small matters and did not care about the specific affairs of the Dao Academy. Many Hall Masters regarded Profound Stone as their backer.
Gao Zhengyang's actions had greatly affected the interests of many Hall Masters. Everyone was especially against him. These people did not have the guts to do anything else, so they used the profound stone as a spear.
In the end, Gao Zhengyang made everyone understand one thing: the consequences of playing petty tricks and disobeying orders were dire. The profound stone couldn't do anything about it, much less Gao Zhengyang.
Bai Huan hated Gao Zhengyang to the core, but he would never say it out loud. He wouldn't say it in front of Li Mu.
Li Mu could also see that Bai Huan wasn't pretending to be stupid. He was an incompetent piece of trash.
The Spirit Pearl City was a bunch of trash. Otherwise, why would the other sects join forces to bully the Heartsword Sect, a major sect?
"Go back and tell Xuan Yang that the Wind Thunder Flag is the supreme divine weapon of our sect and we can't lend it to outsiders."
Li Mu suppressed his anger and spoke in a tough tone, but he still maintained basic restraint. He didn't say anything harsh.
The Heavenly Ghost Sect was inexplicably destroyed and millions of people had died. Although Li Mu didn't believe that Gao Zhengyang did it alone, he believed that it definitely had something to do with the Heartsword Sect.
Perhaps, a Nascent Soul powerhouse of the Heartsword Sect had come over privately and killed the Heavenly Ghost Sect.
The destruction of the Heavenly Ghost Sect meant that the Heartsword Sect had expressed their toughest attitude. It meant that the temporary alliance formed by several sects had collapsed.
Li Mu also gave up the idea of entering the Spirit Pearl City. No matter how good the Spirit Pearl City was, he couldn't exchange the entire sect for it. Li Mu was willing to take a step back, but he couldn't accept the conditions offered by Gao Zhengyang. He could only refuse directly.
Li Mu also knew that refusal wasn't the end. Gao Zhengyang was so arrogant and overbearing that he couldn't be dismissed with just one sentence.
After Bai Huan left, Li Mu found a trusted elder and asked him to immediately go to Cloud City to find Yun Feng of the Cloud Light Sect.
Yun Feng was an elder of the Cloud Light Sect and all the cultivators of the Cloud Light Sect on Ghost Prison Island listened to his orders. In the past few decades, Yun Feng had taken the initiative to form an alliance with several sects to deal with the Spirit Pearl Dao College.
The alliance didn't have an official name, but everyone recognized Yun Feng as the leader. They would discuss the important matters of the alliance with Yun Feng.
The elder of the Wind Thunder Sect flew all the way on the Thunder Bird and finally arrived at Cloud City two days later.
Yun Feng was only a little over a hundred years old, but he was already a Golden Core cultivator. He wore a white Daoist robe and looked like a handsome young man of sixteen or seventeen years old.
In the Cloud Light Sect, Yun Feng was also a famous genius cultivator and was famous for his extraordinary wisdom and comprehension.
Normally, a genius like Yun Feng wouldn't come to Ghost Prison Island. But for some unknown reason, Yun Feng came to Ghost Prison Island of his own accord. Ever since Yun Feng came, the situation of Ghost Prison Island had quickly changed.
If it wasn't for Gao Zhengyang suddenly appearing, in another decade or so, Ling Bead City would have been swallowed by the alliance.
Yun Feng liked the saying, those who were good at fighting did not have great achievements.
True experts did not need to fight, they just fought. They used all kinds of conditions to silently finish off the opponent.
When the opponent found that the situation was not good, the situation had already been decided and they were powerless to resist. This was the most brilliant method.
Yun Feng actually did not care much about Ghost Prison Island. Ling Bead City was not important. He just had nothing to do so he used Ghost Prison Island as a chessboard and the sects as pieces to play a game of chess for his own amusement.
The elder of the Wind Thunder Sect was much older than Yun Feng, but in front of Yun Feng, he was like a child meeting a strict teacher, obedient and respectful.
The elder recounted the events and then handed Gao Zhengyang's letter to Yun Feng for him to read.
Yun Feng took the letter and read it. He laughed in spite of himself and said, "This Gao Zhengyang is really an interesting person."
He paused and then commented, "His handwriting is like knives, spears, swords, and halberds, with a sense of unrestrained arrogance. Judging a person by his handwriting, this person cannot be underestimated."
The elder listened obediently. He didn't know what to say. Yun Feng's words were shrouded in mist, sounding mysterious and profound. He didn't need to reply and just waited for Yun Feng's instructions.
Yun Feng took in a deep breath and said, "Gao Zhengyang found a random reason to wipe out Heaven Ghost Sect. Not only is his personality strong and overbearing, but he also has strong and overbearing methods. You all rejected Gao Zhengyang, so he will definitely use this chance to cause trouble. "
The elder asked anxiously, "Then what should we do, Master Yun please tell us."
Yun Feng was young but his status in the various sects was really high. Normally, they would call him Master Yun to show respect.
Yun Feng said, "I heard that Gao Zhengyang caused trouble in the sect and was sent here. He won't leave for a while. He's in a bad mood, probably because he wanted to cause trouble on Ghost Prison Island. On one hand, he can vent his dissatisfaction, and on the other, he can prove his strength to the sect. "
He said to the elder, "I know people like Gao Zhengyang, they aren't afraid of trouble, they're only afraid that it won't be big enough. Your sect leader's rejection is just giving him a reason to cause trouble. So, the best solution is … "
Yun Feng paused here, as if he was in a difficult position. This made the elder anxious.
To the Wind Lightning Sect, this was a matter of life and death. Heaven Ghost Sect had already been wiped out.
Although there were frequent conflicts between the sects on Ghost Prison Island, they were all small fights. At most, a few low-level disciples would die.
Heaven Ghost Sect's destruction made the Wind Lightning Sect understand how cruel the fights between sects could be. After Heaven Ghost Sect was wiped out, everyone in the Wind Lightning Sect was extremely nervous.
This elder was also deeply worried about this. When he saw that Yun Feng was silent, he became even more anxious. He bowed deeply and said, "Master Yun, please help us."
Yun Feng sighed softly, "Actually, the best solution is to lend me the Wind Lightning Flag. If Gao Zhengyang asks, push it to me. No matter how fierce Gao Zhengyang is, he can't do anything to me. "
The elder was stunned. The Wind Lightning Flag was the sect's divine weapon, how could it be given to an outsider? There was no difference between lending it to Yun Feng and lending it to Gao Zhengyang.
The elder was not a child, he knew that this kind of thing could not be reasoned with. No matter who got the powerful Wind Lightning Flag, it would not be returned to the Wind Lightning Sect.
He felt sad. Big sects really did not have good things. In the past, Yun Feng won them over and used them to deal with the Heart Sword Sect.
The elder was sad and angry, but he did not dare to show it. He could only lower his head to hide his strange expression, and said, "This is a serious matter, I have to go back and report to the sect leader."
Yun Feng was not angry, he smiled and said, "You have to think about it. However, I fear that Gao Zhengyang does not have much patience. You have to make a decision quickly. "
He thought and then said, "Give me the Wind Lightning Flag, there will be a time to return it. You lent it to Gao Zhengyang, but it never came back. The two of you must clearly distinguish the difference between them. "
Yun Feng did not wait for the elder to speak, and said with a wave of his sleeve, "I am slightly tired, you can leave."
The elder silently bowed and turned to leave.
Under the afterglow of the setting sun, the elder's lonely figure carried indescribable sorrow and anger.
An exquisite white-clothed female appeared next to Yun Feng. She looked at the elder's back and said emotionally, "Big Brother, this old man looks pitiful."
The white-clothed female looked to be only fourteen or fifteen, her face exquisite and full of youthful immaturity. But her figure was excellent, thin where it should be slender, large where it should be large, round where it should be round, long where it should be long.
The cloud-like white Daoist robes on her body showed seductive curves.
Yun Feng looked lovingly at the female and said softly, "Tao-tao, the Heavenly Dao is heartless. We xiuzhe don't even have time to cultivate ourselves, we don't have the mind to care about others. "
Tao-tao pouted unhappily and said, "What do you mean, you don't even care about me."
Yun Feng touched Tao-tao's forehead. "You are my blood-related sister, not someone else."
Tao-tao's anger turned to joy and she said with a giggle, "That's more like it. I am the closest to Big Brother. "
"Hahaha … …"
Yun Feng laughed and then said with some disappointment, "When you are older, you will have someone you like. At that time, you will probably forget yourself, how would you remember Big Brother? "
"I won't, I won't."
Tao-tao hurriedly said, "I am not such a heartless sister … …"
Yun Feng smiled and didn't take it seriously. Tao-tao was still too young and didn't understand these things. Her words couldn't be taken seriously.
Tao-tao and Yun Feng joked for a bit and then couldn't help but ask, "Big Brother, if you get the Wind Lightning Flag, will you really return it?"
Yun Feng asked in response, "What do you think?"
"The Wind Lightning Flag, it's said to be a yuanying divine weapon. If I get it, I definitely won't return it."
Tao-tao glanced at Yun Feng. "Big Brother is such a devious person, he won't return it."
Yun Feng roared with laughter. "Right, who would return a divine weapon of this level after getting it? But it sounds better that way. It also gives the other a bit of hope so he can tolerate him retreating. If he is pushed too hard, maybe he will harden his heart and go all out. "
"The small sects are really pitiful," Yun Taotao said sympathetically.
"It's not that the small sects are pitiful, it's that the weak will be exploited and bullied. So, everyone wants to become stronger. "
Yun Feng said faintly, "We xiuzhe have to follow the path of the heavens. Do not care too much about the morals of the mortal world. "
Yun Taotao raised her little hand into a fist and said as though she was promising, "Don't worry, Big Brother, I will cultivate well. I am already rank nine, I will quickly catch up to you. "
"Tao-tao is very smart, but if you want to catch up to me, you still need some time."
Yun Feng encouraged, "Tao-tao, hurry up and cultivate. When you are strong, you can protect Big Brother. Just like a tyrant like Gao Zhengyang, you can beat him up for Big Brother. "
"Don't worry Big Brother, I will definitely protect you."
Yun Taotao was full of confidence. "I heard that Gao Zhengyang is only rank nine, I can beat him up right now."
"You can't beat him right now."
Yun Feng said seriously, "This guy is not ordinary, you can't underestimate him."
Yun Taotao was slightly puzzled. "How strong can a rank nine be? I don't believe it! "
"This is not a joke, this guy is extremely dangerous."
Speaking of Gao Zhengyang, Yun Feng's face became more serious, reminding his sister to be careful of Gao Zhengyang.
"The rumors outside are all fake, I don't believe them. Big Brother, you wouldn't believe them, would you? "
Yun Taotao did not think much of it. The rumors outside saying that Gao Zhengyang destroyed the Heavenly Ghost Sect alone were too ridiculous. Even more ridiculous was that her brother actually believed it.
"I'm serious."
Yun Feng sighed softly. "Such a big thing happened, of course I have to go take a look myself. The people in the market city are all dead, but the traces are still there.
From what I saw, there should only be one or two people who did it. Moreover, there are no traces of a great battle. The Heavenly Ghost Sect's Huang Zhiyuan and Yin Min should have been quickly dealt with. They didn't even have time to release their power … "
The destruction of the Heavenly Ghost Sect was a big matter, Yun Feng immediately rushed over when he heard the news. He was knowledgeable and his cultivation was also high.
After going around the market city, through the many traces, he deduced the battle by seventy to eighty percent.
Yun Feng did not dare to think that it was Gao Zhengyang who did it. However, this time, the Heartsword Sect only sent three experts. Xuan Guo, Xuan Ye, and Gao Zhengyang.
Xuan Guo and Xuan Ye were both experts of the older generation. Yun Feng had never seen them before, but he had heard of their names. He also had some understanding of their abilities and cultivation.
The traces left in the market city were definitely not the doing of Xuan Guo and Xuan Ye. It had nothing to do with profound stones.
Taking away these people, there was only Gao Zhengyang left.
It was indeed illogical for a rank nine to be so powerful. However, the talent of a genius could not be measured with common sense.
As a genius, Yun Feng clearly understood how great the gap between ordinary cultivators and geniuses was.
From the traces in the market city, Gao Zhengyang had also used a trick. Only two jindan should have been killed by him. The others were killed by the Heavenly Ghost Sect's own formation.
Gao Zhengyang's success still had an element of luck. But his methods and schemes could not be underestimated.
Since Yun Feng had started cultivating, he had encountered many experts. Including those Yuanying experts, he did not think much of them. He felt that these people were mediocre and useless, and only had good cultivation luck to have their current achievements.
This Gao Zhengyang was not old, and had methods and schemes. Yun Feng felt that this person could be his sharpening stone. He was tough enough and dangerous enough to give him enough pressure.
His current cultivation was too easy, that was why his progress was so slow.
Yun Feng said to Yun Taotao, "Gao Zhengyang is going to hold a Sword Discourse Conference. I will bring you to see this guy, to see how capable he is, and if he is qualified to be my sharpening stone!"
Yun Taotao was also very excited, her big eyes were shining. "Sword Discourse Conference, that's great, I love excitement."
Another idea popped up in her mind, and she suggested, "The Sword Discourse Conference must have a ranking list. At least a top ten ranking. Then, I'll mark my name and deeds and tell everyone about it. I'll let these ignorant people know of my mighty name … "
"This idea is not bad."
Yun Feng said, "And it must be the top ten beauties. Taotao will definitely be first."
Yun Taotao snorted at this suggestion. "Of course."
Yun Feng looked at the sunset in the west sky, and said with some longing, "With Gao Zhengyang coming, Ghost Prison Island has become interesting. I only hope that he has some ability, and doesn't disappoint me … "
Yun Taotao said, "Oh right, that Iron Steel from Steel Armor Sect will be going too?"
Yun Feng smiled. The Iron Steel that Yun Taotao mentioned was Iron Bone, and he was also an extremely strong Jindan cultivator. Iron Bone was good at training his body, and his body was made of steel and iron, but he could fight better than his Steel Armor Puppet.
Iron Bone had a dull personality, and loved to train hard. Yun Taotao had seen Iron Bone twice, and felt that this person was like an iron weight, a solid man who was the same inside and out, and extremely boring.
Iron Bone, on the other hand, hoped that Taotao would give gifts according to various customs and festivals. The gifts were the same every time. Yun Taotao couldn't accept this style.
Yun Feng was different from his sister, he admired cultivators like Iron Bone. He was dedicated and pure, and had no distractions. Even if this kind of person's talent and comprehension were slightly weaker, they could usually go further.
"Since you're going, how can Iron Bone not go."
Yun Feng said indifferently, "Maybe I don't even need to do anything, Iron Bone can teach Gao Zhengyang how to be a person."
"Then I can teach Gao Zhengyang how to be a person."
Yun Taotao raised her small white fist. "If he doesn't listen to me, I can beat him flat with my little fist. Brother, do you believe me?"
"You're amazing."
Yun Feng praised her without sincerity, and sighed in his heart. What he said before was all for nothing. He treasured this girl very much, and he couldn't bear to scold her.
Anyway, his sister wouldn't leave his side, and nothing would happen to her. When he got serious, Gao Zhengyang wouldn't be able to do anything!
