Wu Song's heart instantly softened. After all, she was his woman, how could he not protect her? Hence, he chose to believe in her. He subconsciously ignored the fact that she had already lost her Primordial Yin. As if he was avoiding it, he did not want to think about it.
Hence, he closed the mountain gates, and refused to reply. In any case, Azureflight Sect had such a powerful Mountain Barrier Formation, even if that Demigod Sovereign really came, there was basically no need to worry. Furthermore, there was still a late-stage Demigod Chen Ning in the sect.
Even the Nascent Soul elders who grew up with him in the sect, were rather dissatisfied with his actions, yet, he chose to ignore them. He repeatedly promised that he would definitely protect Azureflight Sect, and that there would not be any problems.
The matter of Sovereign Zhu Yao's return, he had discussed it with his few Nascent Soul junior-martial siblings, and decided to temporarily put it aside. Although she was the official Sect Master, after all, she had already left for so many years. All the affairs in the sect, big or small, were all handled by Wu Song alone. And, he was the one who brought Azureflight Sect to such a large scale step by step. In the hearts of all the disciples, Wu Song was the leader of the entire sect. And, Zhu Yao was merely their benefactor who saved their lives back then. Although he did this out of a little selfishness, he was not afraid that Zhu Yao would suddenly come to Azureflight Sect, and, in order to help her own disciple vent her anger, kick him out of the Sect Master position.
Because, as the Sect Master, he was the rightful one in the first place. Back then, Zhu Yao went missing, and the sect was leaderless. When he decided to take over the position of Sect Master, everyone had agreed to it. And, he had always done it well, and everyone had gotten used to his way of doing things.
However, he never expected that Zhu Yao basically had no intention of fighting him for the position of Sect Master.
On the seventh day after returning, Elder Sesame returned. Just like that, he swaggered into the main hall in front of all the disciples. He took out the Sect Master's tablet. That was the Sect Master's tablet of the former Azure Melancholy.
"Mistress told me to return this to the true Sect Master of Azure Melancholy Sect."
When his words fell, the faces of the eighty or so martial siblings back then darkened. Their faces flashed with a hint of embarrassment, yet, they could not find any loopholes in his words. They were Azureflight Sect, but that was indeed Azure Melancholy Sect's Sect Master's tablet.
For a moment, Wu Song did not know whether he should accept it or not.
Sesame, however, did not care about him, and simply placed it on the table beside him. "Master said that when she passed by here, she saved your entire family. It was just a small effort. You're welcome. Of course, you don't have to repay me. "
Everyone's faces darkened even more, but they were also exceptionally embarrassed. Clearly, he had said it very casually, yet, it faintly made them feel as though they were ungrateful, especially the few Elders who had visited Ancient Hill Sect earlier. But what it said was the truth, and no one could refute it.
"Although the item has already been returned to its rightful owner." Sesame glanced at the crowd. "From now on, we no longer owe each other anything."
Sesame waved its hand, and walked out of the hall with large strides. Suddenly, a pressure that was comparable to a late-stage Demigod's could be felt. However, it instantly engulfed the entire Azureflight Sect. Wu Song and the others were all stunned. But it really made them shiver.
They had long known that Sesame was Zhu Yao's demonic beast. However, he had always been displaying his Nascent Soul-stage cultivation, so everyone thought that he was merely a seventh or eighth rank demonic beast that was born with the ability to transform. Who would have thought that he was actually at the Tenth Level! It was equivalent to the late stage of Soul Formation.
While the crowd was still in a daze, Sesame, through its spiritual energy, spread its voice to every corner of Azureflight Sect. "Lord has ordered. Today, I have returned the Sect Master's order to this Sect. Today, I return the Sect Leader's order to this sect. From now on, we no longer have any relations with this Sect. "
Wu Song simply felt his heart clench, as he suddenly had a bad premonition. However, he suddenly heard the roars of demonic beasts coming one after another from below the mountain. As though they were responding to Sesame, one after another, they resounded through the clouds.
The disciples who were currently training in the plaza, stopped one after another. Their faces were filled with confusion, as they did not know where those roars were coming from. These disciples who had just entered the sect not long ago did not know, but the eighty-three people clearly knew. Those demonic beasts were all demonic beasts that guarded Azureflight Sect's various entrances or formation cores.
They had always been proud of Azureflight Sect's impenetrable Mountain Barrier Formation. Even if a few reckless heretic practitioners from a few hundred years ago found out that they were related to Azure Melancholy Sect, and wanted to find trouble with them, they were blocked outside by the layers of formations. In the end, all of them died in the mouths of demonic beasts. Hence, after this incident, Azureflight Sect's Great Mountain Barrier Formation had even surpassed Ancient Hill Sect's, and was hailed as the number one Mountain Barrier Formation in the cultivation world.
However, they had all forgotten that this formation of Azureflight Sect, was laid down by that person on Ancient Hill Sect's Jade Forest Mountain.
Traces of panic instantly flashed across the crowd's faces.
Sesame, however, suddenly thought of something, and suddenly smiled with an especially annoying smile. "Oh right, is that bastard with the surname Chen here? Don't forget to tell him that I'm master's true, pure, and natural beastie, personally approved by master. Tell him to scram as far away as he can. If he dares to approach my master again, I will break his chicken claws! Hmph! "
After that, he even snorted heavily, and in a flash, he disappeared before their eyes.
In the instant he disappeared, another white figure suddenly appeared where Sesame was earlier. His initially elegant face revealed a hint of anxiousness, as he began to search around. "Why do I smell the scent of that beastie Sesame? Where's master? Has master returned? My Lord … I'm a lonely beastie with no one to rely on. Please take me in! "
After saying that, his figure flashed, and he had already chased after Sesame.
And the endless demonic beast roars earlier, slowly faded as well, until it completely disappeared. Not a single sound could be heard anymore, and even the aura had disappeared along with it. Wu Song's heart, slowly turned cold as well.
In the next few days, Azureflight was very lively. The Mountain Barrier Formation, which had lost its protective demonic beast, was basically unable to withstand a single blow. Celestial Indus Sect swaggered their way here. And, the only Demigod practitioner, was not in the Sect as well. Although Wu Song had the cultivation of a late-stage Nascent Soul practitioner, in terms of overall strength, he was still incomparable to Celestial Indus Sect, which had two Demigod Sovereigns.
No matter how much true love there was between Wu Song and Mu Meiyan, at this moment, he had no choice but to hand her over. He even had to take responsibility for the act of locking her outside the door earlier, and privately compensated them with a series of spiritual grasses, spiritual medicine, and mystic tools.
However, when it was really time to hand her over, Mu Meiyan had disappeared. Wu Song was dumbfounded. The people in the Sect, faintly felt even more resentment towards him.
On the surface, Rulu was expelled from the Sect, but in reality, she had escaped. Otherwise, Celestial Indus Sect wouldn't have come here to ask for her, and take advantage of her at the same time. However, she was not stupid. She had long guessed that Wu Song would waver. Although she hated him, she still endured it.
Her biggest cheat, Phantom, had yet to wake up. Now that she was captured, she would not be able to make a comeback for a long time. The reason why she stayed in Azureflight, was simply to wait for a chance to make a comeback. However, evidently, this place was no longer safe. It would be weird if she didn't leave.
Only now did Wu Song begin to reflect on whether Yan 'er, whom he had placed in the depths of his heart, was truly sincere towards him as well. Suddenly, he recalled Zhu Yao's words. She said that she had already lost her Primordial Yin. In the past, he had purposely ignored this matter, and had even faintly found an excuse for her, saying that she was forced to do so. However, looking at it now, it seemed like a joke. He began to miss Yu Yao. The two of them had been together for close to a thousand years, yet, she had been planning for him in every aspect. In order to save him, she had even damaged her own cultivation.
However, he …
Because he was unable to hand over the person, Azureflight Sect had no choice but to pay an even greater price in terms of material resources, and had seemingly emptied out a large half of the sect. Initially, he did not place these matters in his eyes. Because, Azureflight Sect had the entire Qiwu Pavilion as their backing. In these few years, he had never had to worry about the various resources. Because, they had Chen Ning, who threw himself at them, refused to leave, and insisted on staying behind.
However, he had forgotten that the reason why Chen Ning stayed behind back then, was because … he was waiting for his lord.
And, his lord, was Sovereign Zhu Yao, who had already announced that she no longer had any relations with Azureflight.
Although he did not know why he addressed Zhu Yao as his lord, following Zhu Yao's withdrawal, Azureflight Sect had indeed lost this God of Fortune who granted all requests.
The days of Azureflight Sect, suddenly became tight. In the past, Wu Song, who only needed to cultivate wholeheartedly, and could casually obtain natural treasures, had also begun to worry about the livelihood of the sect.
The most terrible thing was, he realized that his cultivation could no longer advance. Not only him, even the few people in the group who had reached Nascent Soul with him, had their cultivation stagnated for a very long time as well. After asking, he realized that the cultivation levels of the eighty-three people who had cultivated together with him back then were all the same.
Although the lowest among them had already reached the Azoth Stage, all of them had stopped without exception. Logically speaking, for people like them with four or five Spirit Veins, being able to form their Azoth Cores was already considered a huge opportunity. However, back then, when Zhu Yao imparted this cultivation method to them, she had clearly said that it was not impossible for all of them to have the chance to reach for the Great Dao, and ascend as a Deity.
He knew that Zhu Yao would not lie to them. It must be because the cultivation method they were cultivating in was still incomplete, or there was a certain aspect that needed to be modified. Back then, when she created this cultivation method, didn't she often help them modify it as well?
However, he no longer had any reason to seek her guidance now.
Only then did Wu Song realize that because of his own selfishness, he had committed an irreversible mistake.
However, everything was already too late. Azureflight was the same as its rise, and with an unimaginable speed, it rapidly declined.
Of course, Zhu Yao who was immersed in cultivating her life skills basically did not have the time to notice these things.
— — — —
Zhu Yao's goal was to create the strongest weapon in the cultivation world. However, regarding the art of artifact forging, although she knew what it was, it was still her first time personally doing it. Actually, there were only three stages to all life skills. Elementary, intermediate, and high.
Of course, this was nonsense. Artifact forging was categorized into different levels. Those who were able to forge first to third rank Mystic Artifacts were considered as elementary artificers. Fourth to seventh rank were considered as intermediate artificers. Eighth rank and above, including supreme-grade Mystic Artifacts, were considered as high level artificers.
Evidently, Yu Yan was someone who stood at the top of the pyramid. Back then, her first weapon, that fan, was a supreme-grade Mystic Artifact of the third rank. Zhu Yao had also asked about the pile of Mystic Artifacts and Mystic Artifacts in her master's storage ring. And her master's answer was.
Back then, he was bored and casually made them. Since he had nowhere to put them, he casually stuffed them in.
A certain someone who had always treated these things as treasures, when he found out the truth, tears began to fall. (To be continued)
