A few days ago, Zi Yang, Wei Xuan, and the other twelve members of Crimson Firmament had fallen out with Lightning Cloud and Thunder Cloud branches. Everyone had heard of this matter. Shui Yunruo had also heard of this matter. She discovered that many people were discussing this matter, so she also asked.
"Fei 'er, a few days ago, your four branches had a conflict? Is that so? "
Seeing Lan Fei 'er nod, Shui Yunruo asked again, "Is it because of the dragon-elephant seed?"
"The dragon-elephant seed can be considered the cause." Thinking about what happened a few days ago, Lan Fei 'er's expression was filled with helplessness and anger. She faintly said, "When our twelve seniors of the Lightning Cloud branch heard about this matter, they immediately went to ask about the dragon-elephant seed. They only asked about it and didn't have any other intentions."
Lan Fei 'er pursed her lips and explained, "Although the dragon-elephant is the symbol of a deficit and has a special meaning in the hearts of these old Chi Xiao members, it doesn't mean that others can't have it. The seniors didn't have this intention at all. They only wanted to know the origin of the dragon-elephant seed."
"Since that's the case, why did it become so serious? I heard that they almost fought?"
Lan Fei 'er nodded. She was also present at that time and understood the cause of the matter very well. She said, "The attitude of the Lightning Cloud and Thunder Cloud branch was too vile. Not only were they disrespectful to the old Chi Xiao, their words were also filled with disdain. They told the seniors not to meddle in other people's business, especially Wei Jiaojiao. Not only did this woman humiliate them, she even wanted to attack the seniors."
"Wei Jiaojiao?"
Hearing this name, Shui Yunruo frowned slightly. A trace of disgust flashed through her eyes. She said, "This woman has always been very arrogant because her grandfather is the grand elder of the Thunder Cloud branch. She is unruly and extremely sinister. Many seniors from the four regions have been harmed by her evil schemes."
"Senior Chi Xiao and Senior Chi Xiao won't hold it against Dian Yun and Lei Yun. Senior Chi Xiao won't pursue the matter of the Dragon-Elephant Seed either. What really infuriates the Seniors is that Dian Yun and Lei Yun have been secretly colluding with the Jiuhua Alliance. Moreover, the Dragon-Elephant Seed is very likely to have been refined by someone from the Jiuhua Alliance."
The fact that Lightning Cloud and Thunder Cloud had secretly colluded with the Jiuhua Alliance was an undisclosed secret in the four major territories.
Lan Fei 'er knew, and so did her master, the leader of Wind and Cloud Branch.
However, even if he knew, what could he do?
Many years ago, members of the Wind Cloud and Fire Cloud Branches had tried to persuade them. Unfortunately, it was useless. Thundercloud and Lightning Cloud Branches had never placed Wind Cloud and Fire Cloud in their eyes.
Regarding this.
Feng Yun and Huo Yun were very angry, but there was nothing they could do.
Be it in terms of power, strength, influence, or other aspects, Fire Cloud and Wind Cloud were far inferior to Lightning Cloud and Thunder Cloud. In addition, Thunder Cloud Branch had many experts, and the elders' seniority was relatively high. Thus, Fire Cloud and Wind Cloud could only choose to turn a blind eye.
"Our mission is to eliminate demons and protect the order of the underground world, and we will never get involved in the conflicts between any forces. Unfortunately, the Lightning Cloud Division and the Thunder Cloud Division have long forgotten about our mission and secretly colluded with the Jiuhua Alliance to get involved in the conflicts."
Shui Yunruo asked, "Dian Yun and Thunder Cloud Branch are also overseen by Senior Chi Xiao, right? Did they not care about it?"
"Senior Chi Xiao, who oversees Thunder Cloud and Lightning Cloud Branch, has always been in seclusion. He doesn't care about worldly affairs and rarely comes out in the hundred years since the catastrophe." At this point, Lan Fei 'er revealed a helpless expression and said, "In a sense, they have tacitly agreed to this matter."
"This …" Shui Yunruo frowned and asked again, "The one overseeing Thunder Cloud Branch seems to be Old Master Fang. Back then, Old Master Fang was the Incense Master of Chi Xiao Sect. Could it be that he also …"
"I have always been puzzled about this question. Back then, Master and I went to look for Old Master Fang, but he has never seen us." Lan Fei 'er shook her head slightly and continued, "This time, the twelve seniors of Feng Yun and Huo Yun went to see Old Master Fang at the same time."
"With so many seniors of Chi Xiao appearing together, Old Master Fang wouldn't refuse, right?"
"He did …"
"What happened in the end?"
"I don't know the result either. I only know that when our seniors returned, they all shook their heads and sighed."
"Why?"
"They said that Old Master Fang is old … and wants to live a leisurely life. Furthermore … after meeting Old Master Fang, the twelve seniors of Feng Yun and Huo Yun no longer mentioned the matter of Thunder Cloud and Wind Cloud colluding with the Jiuhua Alliance."
"This …" Shui Yunruo was speechless. "Could it be that the twelve seniors of Chi Xiao were persuaded by Old Master Fang to acquiesce to this matter?"
Shui Yunruo didn't answer this question. She just shook her head and smiled bitterly. "Even if I don't want to, I have to admit that it's most likely like this …"
Shui Yunruo opened her mouth and wanted to say something but stopped. She really didn't know what to say.
In her impression, the seniors of Chi Xiao were all righteous and heroic heroes. Back then, they followed King Chixiao to conquer the world. They killed immortals and slaughtered demons. Each of them was a man who had walked out of a sea of blood.
Why did they become like this after the catastrophe?
Could it be that they were all old?
Did they all want to live a leisurely life?
At this time, Lan Fei 'er said, "It's not that they are old, and they don't want to live a leisurely life. On the contrary, it's because they are too leisurely and the world is too peaceful. Leisurely they are not interested in anything, and peaceful they have nothing to do. Most importantly, King Chixiao, who made them willing to go through fire and water, is no longer around. These seniors of Chi Xiao seem to have lost their backbone. Other than cultivating in seclusion, they really don't know what to do …"
"Then, the matter of Thunder Cloud and Wind Cloud colluding with the Jiuhua Alliance is just like this?"
"What else?" Lan Fei 'er glanced at her and smiled bitterly. "Even the seniors of Chi Xiao have acquiesced. What can we, the juniors, do? Moreover, as far as I know, it's not only the Red Head Branches in the four major regions that are like this. The entire Northwest and even the entire world are like this …"
"I thought only my master was like this. I didn't expect that the people of Chi Xiao who followed King Chixiao to conquer the world were also like this." Shui Yunruo also sighed. "King Chixiao's charm was too great. After he was judged by the Immortal Dao and his soul scattered, many people fell into endless depression. Chi Xiao who followed him back then was like this, and so were the women who admired him back then …"
Shui Yunruo came from the Great Star Cave. Back then, King Chixiao used to recuperate in the Great Star Cave. She didn't know how he got the favor of her master, who was also the cave master of the Great Star Cave. Unfortunately, in order not to implicate the Great Star Cave, King Chixiao tactfully rejected her master's love. However, her master didn't give up because of this.
Shui Yunruo was sure that even now, her master was still thinking about King Chixiao. At least, she hadn't forgotten.
Otherwise, after King Chixiao was judged by the Immortal Dao, her master wouldn't have been depressed all day. She would either cultivate in seclusion or be in a daze when she came out.
