After a long silence, Yu Zhenghai finally asked, "When did this happen?"
"Radiant Cloud Forest. Master came right after Eldest Senior Brother left," Si Wuya replied.
Yu Zhenghai frowned.
He remembered he had seen a broken flying chariot near Lilac Mountain when he was on the flying chariot.
He had seen his master on the flying chariot as well.
However, he had just fought Yu Shangrong to a draw. He was furious.
He had only sent someone to investigate the flying chariot's origin and did not think too much about it.
He did not expect Yu Shangrong to be captured by his master at that time.
Yu Zhenghai shook his head and said, "Master is old. With Second Junior Brother's abilities, he should be able to escape even if he's injured."
Si Wuya recounted what he saw and heard that day.
When he heard that his master had killed one of the three Sword Freaks, Luo Changqing of the Yun Sect, with a single strike, Yu Zhenghai shook his head again and said, "Seventh Junior Brother, is that true?"
He found this hard to believe.
No matter how weak Luo Changqing was, he should not have been killed with a single strike.
Even he would find it difficult to do so.
"I saw it with my own eyes," Si Wuya replied.
Yu Zhenghai frowned slightly. "You said master absorbed the barrier's power to maintain his form. During the sparring session with the Heavenly Sword Sect on the Lotus Dais, master had exhausted the barrier's power. How could he have killed Luo Changqing? "
Si Wuya said, "That's why I suspect … master might have found a way to break through or extend his great limit."
Si Wuya's words had barely left his mouth.
Yu Zhenghai waved his hand and said, "The great limit of a cultivator's life is an unchanging truth … After tens of thousands of years, how many people have broken through it since the beginning of cultivation?"
"Uh …"
"I don't mean to belittle master … You can't just dismiss the conclusion of the predecessors," Yu Zhenghai said.
"However, the descendants will always stand on the shoulders of their predecessors," Si Wuya said.
Si Wuya's thoughts were different from Yu Zhenghai's.
No matter how many predecessors had failed, it did not mean they would never succeed.
"If that's the case … why would master capture Second Junior Brother?" Yu Zhenghai asked.
Si Wuya was speechless.
He did not understand this question as well.
"Perhaps, master, you really want to rebuild the Evil Sky Pavilion?" Si Wuya asked.
"Since I've broken through the great limit, I should be able to attain the Nine-leaf stage … With the strength of a Nine-leaf cultivator, why would I need help from others?"
Si Wuya frowned.
He didn't say anything more.
When Yu Zhenghai took down the Clarity Sect previously, he did not believe him either.
It wouldn't happen this time either.
A stubborn person's way of thinking was deeply ingrained. It was not something that could be shaken by a few words.
Since that was the case, he might as well not say anything.
Just then —
Bai Yuqing walked in from outside.
He cupped his hands towards the three of them. "Greetings, Sect Leader, Mister Seventh."
"Speak." Yu Zhenghai waved his hand.
Bai Yuqing said straightforwardly, "I've investigated the wreckage of the flying chariot. It's certain that the flying chariot came from the Fiend Temple."
Hua Chongyang was puzzled.
"Ren Buping is dead, and most of his territories have been annexed to the Nether Sect. Duan Xing has become the new Sect Master of the Fiend Temple, and he's no longer expanding his forces. Why is he with the old senior? "
Before Bai Yuqing could say anything …
Yu Zhenghai scoffed. He said in a displeased tone, "How dare the puny Fiend Temple cause trouble behind our backs?"
"Sect Leader, I'm willing to destroy the Fiend Temple with my men. The Fiend Temple doesn't know what's good for them. They're … struggling at death's door. They're not worth mentioning. "Hua Chongyang was tongue-tied.
Si Wuya shook his head and said, "It's too late."
Yu Zhenghai felt invigorated.
He looked at Si Wuya and said, "What do you think, Seventh Junior Brother? Speak your mind."
Si Wuya was slightly taken aback.
He felt that his Eldest Senior Brother was overly friendly compared to usual.
"Ren Buping is dead, and the Fiend Temple is no longer a threat. There's no need to split our forces to deal with them. The losses outweigh the gains. Moreover, Duan Xing has master as his backing. "Si Wuya did not say anything else after saying this.
Yu Zhenghai laughed and said, "Seventh Junior Brother, you're wise … I've destroyed the Clarity Sect and the Righteous Sect. In your opinion, what should we do next? "
Si Wuya finally understood why his Eldest Senior Brother was so friendly.
He was waiting here.
Si Wuya said, "The Nether Sect's forces are expanding rapidly. I reckon that they've attracted the Imperial family's attention. The Fourth Prince, Liu Bing, has returned to the capital. Wei Zhuoyan has replaced him and is heading to the borders … Eldest Senior Brother, you must be careful. "
Yu Zhenghai snorted and said, "Against me?"
"It's just a guess … However, an important figure has appeared. We can divert the Imperial family's attention," Si Wuya said.
"Who?"
"The Third Prince of Great Yan's Imperial family, Jiang Aijian!" Si Wuya replied.
…
At the foot of Golden Court Mountain.
Mingshi Yin called for the others to ascend the mountain. He turned to look at Jiang Aijian and said, "Don't just stand there. It's not your first time here."
Jiang Aijian's eyes darted around. He walked up to Mingshi Yin and said in a hushed tone, "Brother, we've been through life and death together … How about you put in a good word for me to the old senior?"
"That's nothing." Mingshi Yin stepped forward with a disdainful expression on his face. "Stay away from me. I'm not your brother."
Zhao Yue and Little Yuan 'er were speechless.
Jiang Aijian walked up to Zhao Yue and said, "Zhao Yue, according to seniority … I'm your brother."
"Scram!"
Zhao Yue retorted, sounding slightly disdainful.
Her words sounded as though she was insulting him.
Jiang Aijian looked aggrieved as he scratched his head. 'Who did I offend?'
Mingshi Yin stopped in his tracks and said, "Hurry up. What's with all the nonsense?"
"Brother Ming, you're the best!" Jiang Aijian followed Mingshi Yin.
Naturally, Jiang Aijian had come to the Evil Sky Pavilion because he was in trouble. Everyone in the Divine Capital knew that the Second Prince, Liu Huan, had died in the Obedient Villa.
Shortly after …
The others ascended the mountain.
As soon as they arrived at the Evil Sky Pavilion, two female disciples came up to them.
"Welcome, Mister Fourth, Mister Fifth, and Mister Ninth …"
Mingshi Yin nodded and asked, "Where's master now?"
"The pavilion master is resting."
The other female disciple said, "Mister Second has returned to the Evil Sky Pavilion."
Upon hearing this, Mingshi Yin.
Mingshi Yin, Zhao Yue, and Little Yuan 'er were shocked.
"Say that again?"
The female disciple was shocked by Mingshi Yin's attitude as well. She repeated, "Mister Second has returned to the Evil Sky Pavilion."
"How dare a traitor return? Where is he now? "Mingshi Yin asked.
"He's facing the wall in the Cave of Reflection."
"I'll teach that traitor a lesson later!" Mingshi Yin said solemnly.
At this moment, a black figure stood in the distance and said, "You might not know this, Mister Fourth.
It was the pavilion master who traveled thousands of miles to Radiant Cloud Forest to kill the Sword Freak, Luo Changqing, and capture Mister Second. "
Mingshi Yin looked up at the black figure and asked, "Who are you?"
"Duan Xing of the Fiend Temple. Greetings, gentlemen … I saw what happened in Radiant Cloud Forest with my own eyes. It was truly an unforgettable battle, "Duan Xing said.
