"If the Sacred Sun Clan wants to find trouble with the Eastern Tang, my Broad Creed Mountain will take responsibility for it."
The voice of the King of the Eastern Tang Kingdom, Zhao Shicheng, resounded from afar, "Elder Qin is too polite. Broad Creed Mountain is the true ruler of the Heaven Domain."
Although Zhao Shicheng could not see it, within the manor, Yan Zhaoge stood up and bowed from afar, "I have caused trouble for Uncle."
Elder Qin and Yan Xu returned to the manor and sat down once more.
"It is just that the East Rising Lord coming over means that the Sacred Sun Clan has yet to treat this matter as an urgent matter."
Yan Xu said slowly, "What they're concerned about at the moment is the betrayal of their disciples, and the fact that they've been taken in by our sect."
"Rather than a Maiden of Extreme Yin roaming outside, she would be more likely to be accepted by my Broad Creed Mountain."
As he said this, Yan Xu looked towards Yan Zhaoge and Feng Yunsheng.
Yan Zhaoge nodded. Yan Xu's analysis was not wrong, coinciding with his own.
Having been jointly diagnosed and examined by the many peak experts of the Sacred Sun Clan, all of them had come to the conclusion that her Extreme Yin Physique was completely crippled, unable to recover.
Otherwise, the incident that year wouldn't have happened, and it would be even more impossible for Yan Zhaoge and Broad Creed Mountain to pick up the scraps now.
Elder Qin said, "This is a good thing for our sect."
This way, the Sacred Sun Clan's movements would not be too intense.
While they didn't fear the Sacred Sun Clan, unless it was absolutely necessary, Broad Creed Mountain also didn't want to start a war with them. A clash between two Sacred Grounds could very well turn into a situation that no one could control.
After all, the Sacred Sun Clan was stronger, and Broad Creed Mountain would naturally be more than happy to develop itself, waiting until its strength was more robust before truly contending against the Sacred Sun Clan.
Therefore, after Yan Xu had left, while his attitude had been tough and his actions had not been careless, he had stubbornly refused to admit that his clan had taken in Feng Yunsheng, leaving the Sacred Sun Clan a way out of this embarrassing situation.
Even Elder Qin, who was even more unyielding and upright, tacitly agreed with this statement.
Now that they were united against a common enemy, Yan Zhaoge naturally wouldn't undermine his Elder.
The Sacred Sun Clan disciple Feng Muge would naturally no longer have anything to do with him and Broad Creed Mountain.
However, the wild Maiden of Extreme Yin, Feng Yunsheng, was another matter altogether …
You said they look exactly the same?
The world was vast, and there were all sorts of strange things. It was not the first time he had seen someone who looked exactly like him.
She's so beautiful, and she looks exactly the same?
That's not impossible, is it? Perhaps they were twin sisters who had been separated since childhood …
In short, he didn't have anyone he wanted, but if he wanted to fight, he would fight.
I'll give you a ladder. If you go down, then we'll live in harmony. If you don't go down, then we'll fight it out.
Yan Xu said, "In the last Extreme Yin Bout, Meng Wan accidentally lost the Extreme Yin Crown, which ended up in the hands of Jade Sea City, who was on good terms with our clan but was at odds with the Sacred Sun Clan."
"Their peak experts have previously been in secluded cultivation, not having emerged at all. If it is not an extremely major issue, the Sacred Sun Clan would also not wish to clash with our clan to the death in the near future."
Elder Qin looked at Feng Yunsheng. "The key lies with this young friend Feng."
"Considering all aspects, it is not suitable for you to continue staying in the Eastern Tang, in the East Heaven Region."
"When the people from the clan arrive, they will send you back to Broad Creed Mountain."
Elder Qin then looked at Yan Zhaoge, "Zhaoge, you return as well. Having suffered a setback this time, the Sacred Sun Clan will very likely target you next."
"After returning to the mountain, focus on helping Little Friend Feng recover his Extreme Yin Body."
Yan Zhaoge answered, "Many thanks for Elder's concern, but I intend to remain in the Eastern Tang for a period of time; there are some things that I still need to prepare for."
"Sending junior apprentice-sister Feng back to the Mountain as soon as possible will suffice. I will return after I have dealt with the matters on hand."
"During this period of time, I will go out less, keeping a low profile, not giving the Sacred Sun Clan a chance."
Elder Qin frowned slightly. "What other matters do you have?"
Before Yan Zhaoge could answer, Yan Xu said slowly from the side, "He indeed still has some matters that he needs to clarify."
As Elder Qin looked over, Yan Xu said, "Our clan's disciple Lin Yushao met with harm in the Eastern Tang. The perpetrator used was our clan's direct lineage martial art, the Tushita Palm."
"Lin Yushao, this name, if this old man does not remember wrongly, Zhaoge …" Elder Qin's tone did not change as he looked back at Yan Zhaoge.
Yan Zhaoge's expression was heavy as he nodded, answering, "It was this disciple who brought her back to the Mountain, recommending her into our clan."
"Her hometown, like Ye Jing's, is also the East Heaven Region's Eastern Tang Kingdom."
"Before this, she and I were lovers." At this point, Yan Zhaoge was a little speechless.
Lin Yushao having met with harm, Yan Zhaoge also felt a little pity. After all, it was a life.
Whether her actions were right or wrong, at least it had not reached the point where she had to pay with her life.
But strictly speaking, the two had not even spoken a single word to each other. The only understanding they had of each other came from the memories of the body's original owner, just like watching a slide show.
Not counting the memories of the body's original owner, Yan Zhaoge had not even seen her in person.
If he said how sad he was, would anyone believe him?
But in the eyes of others, the two were lovers. Therefore, Yan Zhaoge could only wear a sorrowful expression on his face as he slowly said, "When I was in the Luliao Mountains, I had already received the news."
"It was only that I had a heavy responsibility at the time, and could only prioritize public affairs over private matters."
"Now that junior apprentice-sister Feng's matter has temporarily come to an end, I request to personally investigate the culprit, to comfort junior apprentice-sister Lin's soul in heaven."
Looking at Yan Zhaoge, Yan Xu said indifferently, "In this old man's opinion, it is best that you avoid arousing suspicion."
Yan Zhaoge looked at Yan Xu, who did not care in the slightest, "There are many rumours over at Overlooking Abyss City, all of which are very disadvantageous to you."
Frowning, Elder Qin asked, "What rumours?"
Yan Xu answered, "It is rumoured that Yan Zhaoge and another young female disciple, Sikong Qing, grew closer and closer during their trip to the Sealing Dragon Abyss, and are usually very close to each other."
"It was because of this news that Lin Yushao could not sit still and hurriedly rushed over to the Eastern Tang."
He did not finish his words, but Elder Qin had already understood what he was implying, "This kind of rumour cannot be trusted."
"Although Lin Yushao is of the Eastern Tang, she does not have any enemies," Yan Xu said, "And Lin Yushao died to our clan's direct lineage martial art, the Tushita Palm."
He looked at Yan Zhaoge, "This old man personally examined her; the one who did it should be an early outer aura Martial Scholar."
"The Blood Soul Recollection Ritual can only be used when both parties involved are still alive."
"If the two parties had already communicated beforehand, harboring the same thoughts, they would still be able to obtain a predetermined result. Therefore, you and your people, as well as this Little Friend Feng, are all inapplicable."
"Now that Lin Yushao is dead, the dead cannot testify."
Yan Xu swivelled his head to look at Elder Qin, "It is still too early to say anything now, but this old man believes that Yan Zhaoge should at least avoid arousing suspicion."
Hearing his words, Elder Qin slowly nodded.
Yan Zhaoge, on the other hand, burst out laughing.
Frowning, Elder Qin said, "Zhaoge, pay attention to the situation."
Yan Zhaoge retracted his smile, nodding his head in all seriousness, "If it's an early outer aura Martial Scholar, I am already no longer one."
Saying thus, he released his aura-qi, refining it into a weapon which hovered around his body.
Yan Xu suddenly stood up, almost flipping over the chair behind him.
Yan Zhaoge had not made a move earlier, his aura-qi retracted to the point that only now did he discover that Yan Zhaoge had actually already reached the mid outer aura stage.
