It was surprising enough that the disciple of Liangwang Peak of the Aoyama Sect didn't attack the demoness first.
Who would have thought that when the Kun Lun Elders intended to kill the other party, he would actually help the demoness with his sword!
What was going on?
Shi Fengchen stared at Yao Songshan, his eyes full of shock and anger. As he was about to ask, he suddenly thought of a possibility, his expression changing abruptly.
The subordinate official of the Pure Heaven Bureau didn't think of what Shi Fengchen had thought of, his face turning pale with fright. "Immortal Master Yao, what are you doing?"
The Elder of Kunlun came back to his senses, and said sternly, "I know those Senior Masters of the Sect of Three acted improperly in Chaonan City and offended the Aoyama Sect, but everybody saw this demoness kill Immortal Master Zhu Jie with their own eyes. Do you think the Aoyama Sect will protect her?"
"Zhu Jie was rude to my Senior Master, so he deserves to die."
Yao Songshan walked forward slowly, looking at the Elder of Kunlun, and said nonchalantly, "As for you, you dared attack my Senior Master; you have a death wish."
It was deathly quiet in the grand hall.
The green cloth worn by Yao Songshan fluttered in the ocean wind, making him look like an immortal.
The crowd wondered if they had heard what he said clearly.
Rude to my Senior Master? Dared attack my Senior Master? Senior Master … what Senior Master?
Yao Songshan was the eleventh disciple of Liangwang Peak, so who was his Senior Master?
Countless gazes fell on Zhao Layue.
Zhao Layue took off her conical hat.
Regrettably, they didn't get to see her beautiful black hair flowing down like a waterfall.
This young girl had short hair and a pair of short but powerful eyebrows.
The reason why it was said to be powerful was because her eyebrows were thick, as if they were painted with the thickest ink.
More and more people guessed her identity. They were shocked speechless, standing up one after another.
The sound of tables being overturned could be heard everywhere in the grand hall.
…
…
In the cultivation world, Zhao Layue was very famous. She was even close to catching up to Lo Huainan, Tong Yan, Bai Zao, Zhuo Rusui, and others.
She was an Innate Dao Seed. Before she was even born, she was already the target of Aoyama Sect's protection.
Three years ago, in the Inherited Sword Competition in Aoyama, she surprised everyone by allowing Shenmo Peak to continue the inheritance and became the second disciple of Zhenren Jingyang, which shocked the entire cultivation world.
Her appearance and temperament had already been discussed countless times in the various sects.
This short-haired girl had picturesque eyebrows and distinct black and white eyes. The disciples of Liangwang Peak addressed her as Senior Master. Who else could she be but Zhao Layue?
…
…
Everybody stood up, no matter how they felt about the Green Mountain Sect and Zhao Layue, or how they felt at the moment.
Mo Xi, a disciple of Shui Yue Nunnery, also stood up.
She found that Zhao Layue looked like a girl with a delicate and pretty face, nothing special about her. She couldn't help but look down on her. But in the next moment, she thought of the bloody sword that had pierced through the grand hall, and her expression changed slightly, feeling ashamed of her inferiority.
Xiang Wanshu was surprised. He didn't expect the girl he had met on the Lone Mountain to be the rumored Zhao Layue.
In the minds of the disciples of Zhongzhou School, Zhao Layue was different from the talented disciples of other sects. Zhao Layue was from Zhaoge. According to the saying that all the talented disciples of Zhaoge would enter the Center Sect, she should have joined Zhongzhou School. In that case, she should have been his Big Sister or Young Sister.
The masters of Zhongzhou School had tried hard for ten years to change the Zhao family's mind, but the Aoyama Sect was too strict.
These stories had been circulating in Zhongzhou School for a long time, so many disciples, including Xiang Wanshu, were curious about Zhao Layue. They also had an indescribable feeling, a feeling of intimacy, and also a feeling of resistance. Most of the young disciples regarded her as an imaginary enemy.
It was still quiet in the grand hall, and it was hard for people to calm down.
Some of them noticed the person standing by Zhao Layue.
If this girl was Zhao Layue, then who was the person wearing the conical hat?
Judging from the iron sword, this person hadn't entered the Undefeated State yet, and was much weaker than Zhao Layue.
Was he Jing Jiu?
After the Inherited Sword of Shenmo Peak, Jing Jiu had gained some fame in the Cultivation circle, though he was far less famous than Zhao Layue.
Yet, in some people's minds, he was even more famous than Zhao Layue, because it was rumored that he was an exceptionally handsome man.
Jing Jiu had no intention of taking off the conical hat, which made the female Cultivation practitioners, including Mo Xi, feel a bit regretful.
"Oh, it's the Master of Shenmo Peak of Aoyama. Please forgive me for not welcoming you earlier."
As a gentle voice rang out, a cloud and fog came up from the deep end of the grand hall, and a tall figure walked out slowly from the fog.
The mysterious Xiwang Sun had finally shown up in front of the world.
…
…
Xiwang Sun was forced to show up.
Zhao Layue was the Master of Shenmo Peak, an important figure in Aoyama Sect.
Moreover, she was the personal disciple of the Immortal Jingyang.
In terms of seniority and status, she was the most powerful person in the grand hall today.
The elders of Western Sea Sword School and Kunlun had the same seniority as her, but their status in the Cultivation circle was far lower than hers.
On the Cloud Platform, only Xiwang Sun's status could be considered equal to hers, so he had to come out and welcome her in person to show his respect to Aoyama Sect.
…
…
Before Xiwang Sun showed up, the elder of the Western Sea Sword School in the State of Free Travel had withdrawn his Sword Discernment, just as Zhao Layue had revealed her identity.
If he had withdrawn his Sword Discernment a bit slower, he would have been regarded as disrespectful to Aoyama Sect, which might have led to a dispute.
Xiwang Sun greeted Zhao Layue with a smile, and then looked at Jing Jiu beside her.
Thinking of what Jing Jiu had said when they met earlier, a ferocious glint flashed in the deep end of his eyes.
At this moment, he was sure that Jing Jiu didn't want to seek refuge with Western Sea Sword School.
At that time, Jing Jiu said to him, "I just want to see you."
"See what?"
"Did Aoyama Sect know about the Dace Devil and send their disciples to investigate?"
Thinking of this, even he was a bit vigilant.
But he didn't worry too much, because he believed that no matter how hard Aoyama Sect investigated, even if they found all the way to West Sea through the Dace Devil, they still wouldn't find any evidence.
The layout of the Dace Devil was not deliberately arranged, and it was only aimed at the ambition of the Cultivation practitioners.
Thinking that the disciple with natural Dao quality of Aoyama Sect had eaten the Monster Pill two years ago, Xiwang Sun showed an enigmatic smile.
A Monster Pill, which could help the Cultivation practitioners improve their state, and a Cultivation Method that could erase the traces of Dan Poison was a temptation that no Cultivation practitioner could resist.
The more talented they were, the more pressure and expectations they had to bear, and the more they couldn't resist the temptation.
Looking at Jing Jiu and Zhao Layue, Xiwang Sun thought with a smile, "Go ahead and investigate. The more serious you are, the better. It would be best if you could find out who your talented disciple is."
Jing Jiu was thinking about something else.
After Zhao Layue revealed her identity, Xiwang Sun showed up to welcome her in person …
If he had known it would be so easy, he wouldn't have played those games of chess on the Lonely Mountain.
It seemed that after countless years of cultivation and traveling, he was still not experienced enough in this aspect.
What about you? Didn't you say that you were good at scheming?
He looked at Zhao Layue beside him and shook his head, thinking that she was indeed a disciple of Shenmo Peak, but she was a bit stupid in this aspect.
At this moment, a voice rang out.
At first, that person's voice trembled slightly, and it was unclear whether he was angry or uneasy, but it soon became steady, firm, and unbreakable.
"Do you think that just because you are a big shot of Aoyama Sect, you can kill people at will?"
