"Great-grandfather, don't talk nonsense. Our Shangqing Sect didn't say that we will join forces with the other sects to deal with the King."
"Oh? It's not possible for the Shangqing Sect to be so nice, right? Putting the others aside, which one of the elders of your Shangqing Sect had not been beaten by that brat Gu in the past? Especially that pedantic and stubborn old man at the Void Pierce Stage. He had even been beaten by that brat Gu to the point that he lost control of his bladder. Also, that grandmaster grandmother of yours had been slapped by that brat Gu in the past until her face was bruised and swollen. All of them are people with reputations. They regard their reputation as more important than their lives. How could they possibly swallow this insult? They have been holding it in for three hundred years. This time, Little Guy Gu has finally returned. How can they let it go so easily? "
"The Void Pierce Stage elders and my Grandmaster Granny are all respectable immortals of the current era. I think they won't bother about what happened in the past."
"Little girl, you've only known them for a few days. I've known them for my entire life. You don't know what kind of morals they have, do you? Each of them is a sanctimonious hypocrite. In front of you, they talk about benevolence, righteousness, and morality. When they see the immortals descending from the Nine Heavens, each of them will kneel down and lick their boots."
"Great-grandfather, they are the seniors of our Shangqing Sect. You don't have to talk about them like that in front of me. Besides, even if they really care about what happened in the past, it won't affect the decision of the entire Shangqing Sect. Besides, the female sect master has already taken over the position of sect master. If the female sect master doesn't say anything, who in the entire Shangqing Sect would dare to touch the King?"
"That's true."
After leaving the Dragon Pool, the two of them began to walk towards the Immortal Food Town. Old Ancestor Luo Xuan said worriedly. "But, speaking of which, what is Ye Tianlan's attitude?"
"Great-grandfather, I'm just an outer sect elder. How would I know the female sect master's intention?"
Not only did Luo Xuan Mingyue not know the meaning of the Matron, she had never even seen the Matron's face. She was born in ancient times, and the Matron had been in seclusion since the King's trial more than three hundred years ago.
"Also, Great Grandfather, how many times have I told you? Don't call the Female Sect Empress by her name. Not only is she the Sect Master of the Shang Qing Sect, she is also the Palace Lord of Sengoku, the Elder of Yunduan, and most importantly, the Immortal Monarch bestowed by the Nine Heavens."
"So what if he's the head of the Shangqing sect? So what if he's the head of Sengoku? What happened to Elder Yunduan? So what if he was a Nine Heavens Immortal Monarch? In this old man's eyes, she is still that little girl. "
"Great-grandfather, if you continue like this …"
Noticing that Luo Xuan Mingyue had become serious, Ancestor Luo Xuan hurriedly corrected himself. "Alright, alright, alright. This old man won't call her little girl. I'll call her Female Sect Empress, alright?"
Although Patriarch Luo Xuan spoke arrogantly, as if he didn't put Ye Tianlan in his eyes, he was actually very afraid of Ye Tianlan in the depths of his heart.
That was right.
It was fear.
Immortal Monarch of the Nine Heavens.
Elder Yunduan.
Palace Lord of Sengoku.
Each of these identities was bigger than the last, and each of them could scare people to death.
Not to mention these identities, just the Sect Master of the Shang Qing Sect was not someone that Patriarch Luo Xuan could afford to offend.
Moreover, he also knew that Ye Tianlan's identity was not just that.
When he thought of Ye Tianlan.
Patriarch Luo Xuan couldn't help but frown and say, "Aiya, now your Shang Qing Sect is led by that girl Ye Tianlan, oh no, it's the Female Sect Master, Little Guy Gu … I'm afraid you won't be able to avoid it this time."
Luo Xuan Mingyue curled his lips and said unhappily, "Who asked the King to bully the Female Sect Empress back then."
Back then, the King teased the Female Sect Master in public and bet on immortal fate.
After that, the Female Sect Master admitted defeat and fulfilled her promise. She was willing to become the Dao companion of the King.
In the end, she was mercilessly rejected by the King.
Because of this, the Female Sect Master's spirit broke down and she went crazy three times. Even so, when the King was judged by the Immortal Dao, the Female Sect Master resisted the judgment for the King without caring about her own life.
Everyone knew about this, and Luo Xuan Mingyue naturally knew as well.
Although she had heard Patriarch Luo Xuan talk about the King's heroic deeds since she was a child, and had always regarded the King as a hero in her heart. However, ever since she knew that the King had betrayed the Female Sect Empress back then, King Chixiao was no longer a hero in her heart, but a complete dissolute heartless person.
Not to mention her.
Even Patriarch Luo Xuan, who did not allow outsiders to say anything bad about King Chixiao, also felt that the King Chixiao had really let down the Female Sect Master, Ye Tianlan, back then.
He still couldn't figure out why King Chixiao had rejected Ye Tianlan's immortal fate back then.
Others might not know.
However, Old Ancestor Luo Xuan was very clear that the Scarlet Firmament Sovereign King was definitely not a heartless person. Otherwise, when the Immortal Dynasty wanted to execute the female sect master, the Scarlet Firmament Sovereign King wouldn't have disregarded his own life to save Ye Tianlan.
There was one more thing that bothered him the most.
Back then, after the Sovereign King saved the female sect leader, the two of them even drank the old soup at his place. Their loving appearance was really like a pair of dao companions. Moreover, Old Ancestor Luo Xuan clearly remembered that Sovereign King Chi Xiao had said that he might become dao companions with Ye Tianlan.
Why did this matter fall through later on?
Why on earth?
Patriarch Luo Xuan had thought about this question for so many years but still could not figure it out.
However.
It was meaningless to talk about this now. It was a fact that King Chixiao had let down the Female Sect Master back then. Moreover, it was also a fact that the Female Sect Master had lost her mind and gone mad because of this. Given the Female Sect Master's temperament, he was afraid that she would not let this matter go. Otherwise, why would she choose to come out of seclusion at this time? She must have come for Little Guy Gu.
Patriarch Luo Xuan had lived for tens of thousands of years. He had seen too many things where love turned to hate.
He also knew very well that once a woman became ruthless, she was more terrifying than an old demon.
"By the way, is there any movement from Sengoku?"
Luo Xuan Mingyue shook his head and replied, "Not for the time being. I heard that Yan Fairy personally came out to persuade Sengoku to take action against the King."
"If Yan Fairy is willing to come forward for Little Guy Gu, then this matter will be much easier to handle. Yan Fairy is popular and has a wide network. If she comes forward, the major sects will not dare to not give face to her. Your Shangqing Sect and even Sengoku will not dare to not give face to Yan Fairy."
"The problem now is that no one knows whether the Gu Qingfeng mentioned by Yan Fairy is the real King Chixiao," Luo Xuan Mingyue said, "After all, Yan Fairy has never seen the real King Chixiao."
"What? Don't you admire Yan Fairy the most? Don't tell me you suspect that Yan Fairy is deliberately covering up for the King? "
"Great-grandfather, please don't misinterpret my meaning. I'm afraid that Yan Fairy will mistakenly think that Gu Qingfeng is the King."
"That's true. How do you think Yan Fairy is so sure that Gu Qingfeng is Little Guy Gu? It's not impossible for her to make a mistake. "
"So now, the major sects and various worlds want to take this opportunity to see whether the Gu Qingfeng mentioned by Yan Fairy is the real King Chixiao."
