Jian Che's character had always been cold, so Su Yu didn't treat him as an outsider. He sat behind Jian Che and said, "We haven't seen each other for thousands of years. I wonder if Senior Jian Che can teach me a thing or two?"
Jian Che's face was cold, and his pitch-black pupils seemed to contain broken ice. He glanced at Su Yu indifferently and said, "You are no match for me."
His words were not polite, but they were so natural. This was the attitude of a strong person towards a weak person.
It was so righteous that one couldn't refute it.
Although he knew that he couldn't defeat Jian Che, knowing was one thing, and having Jian Che say it out loud was another. Su Yu was stunned by Jian Che's straightforwardness. After a moment of silence, he laughed dryly and said, "We haven't seen each other for many years, but Senior Jian Che is still so straightforward."
Du E looked down on Wu Che, but he also looked down on Jian Che, who only had eyes for a sword. After a cold snort, he cupped his hands and said to the other faction masters, "I invite all of you here. Besides the matter of the faction competition, Du E has another request. After this competition, I hope that all of you can lend me a hand to keep the Immortal Faction."
Although Du E's character was not good, his cultivation was one of the best in the Hongmeng Continent. The seriousness of this matter could be seen from the fact that he was forced to ask for a hand to keep the Immortal Faction.
Even though Su Yu didn't like Du E, he still perked up and couldn't help but want to know what had happened that made Du E say such a serious word.
"A month ago, when the disciples of the Immortal Faction went out to train, they found a mysterious cave. The walls of the cave were emitting a faint blue light, and the spiritual energy in the cave was very rich. It was ten times more than the spiritual energy in our faction's spiritual pulse." Du E didn't leave any suspense and continued to speak in a straightforward manner, "After receiving this news, the Immortal Faction immediately sent people to investigate. The disciples who entered the cave had a surge of spiritual energy at first, and they advanced rapidly. However, three days after these disciples advanced, the spiritual energy in their bodies suddenly disappeared, and their spiritual roots vanished. They became completely ordinary people without exception."
Du E's face was serious. "I suspect that the place is a trap set by a traitor against all of the factions, so I hope that all of you can help me investigate."
This strange matter had already attracted the attention of all the major sects. Now that Du E said the word 'traitor', the expressions of all the sect masters became even more serious.
A thousand years ago, the inner disciples of the various sects suddenly betrayed their sects. They fled their sects and massacred their fellow disciples and commoners, becoming the shame of the various sects.
This matter had also become a secret of the various large sects, and those traitorous disciples were also called traitors of the sects by everyone.
It had been a thousand years since the rebellion. These disciples had not committed any crimes, and the people in the sect had tacitly forgotten the existence of these people. Now that Du E spoke again, the tragic past appeared in front of everyone again.
The Hunyuan Sect had the largest number of disciples who had defected and suffered the most casualties. If it weren't for the support of the elders of the previous generation, the Hunyuan Sect would have been wiped out.
Therefore, Hunyuan Sect hated traitors the most. Now that he heard Du E mention traitors, Hunyuan Sect Leader Yuancheng smashed the stool into pieces. He gritted his teeth with hatred and said, "If it was really done by those traitors, I will make sure they never return."
Yuancheng's attitude showed that he agreed with Du E's words.
Although the other sect masters had doubts about whether this matter was related to traitors, Yuancheng had already agreed. If they didn't agree, it would be unsociable. So, they nodded in agreement.
As for Su Yu, although he still had some doubts in his heart, since everyone had agreed, he couldn't say anything more. So, he nodded along.
However, seeing Su Yu nodding, Du E said with a puzzled face, "Master Su, why are you nodding so slowly? Do you still have expectations for that group of disciples?"
Su Yu was speechless.
What does my slow nodding have to do with my expectations for traitors?
Su Yu looked at Du E with a puzzled face and said, "Senior Brother Du E, why do you say that?"
Du 'e looked at Su Yu with a righteous face and spoke in a condescending tone, "Who doesn't know that Junior Brother Su Yu almost married Junior Sister Su Ling in the past? It's inevitable for you to be kind to the traitor. But!
However, Junior Brother Su Yu, don't forget that Junior Sister Su Ling is no longer the Su Ling of the past. Now, she is a traitor of the faction. If you meet her again, Junior Brother Su Yu, you must not be soft-hearted. Otherwise, the ones who will be hurt will be our disciples. "
Su Yu was speechless.
He had ten thousand dirty words to say.
Su Yu took a deep breath and suppressed the depression in his heart. He said, "The matter between Junior Sister Su Ling and I has nothing to do with Senior Brother Du E. Even if Junior Sister Su Ling and I almost became companions, now we are strangers. Naturally, I won't be soft-hearted. However, Senior Brother Du E, you are talking nonsense. I can't help but suspect your true intentions."
Du E had never liked Su Yu. He hated the Xuantian Sect because he hated the Xuantian Sect.
Later, the Xuantian Sect took away Jiujiu. Because of Jiujiu, many disciples of the Xuantian Sect were killed and injured in the Tianxuan Secret Realm. He hated the Xuantian Sect even more. Now that he finally seized the opportunity, he couldn't wait to trample Su Yu to death.
At this moment, Su Yu suddenly turned hostile. Du E was really stunned.
Du E opened his mouth. "I'm just reminding you out of kindness. I don't mean anything else."
"I'm just advising you out of kindness." Su Yu's expression didn't change. He said in a neutral tone, "If it were someone with a bad temper, they wouldn't talk to you so nicely."
Du E was speechless.
You're talking to me nicely now?
Su Yu left as soon as he finished speaking.
He was afraid that he couldn't help but give Du E a punch.
No matter what Su Ling's betrayal was, she was still his junior sister. She grew up with him. The two of them knew each other and cherished each other. Although he didn't know why she suddenly betrayed the Xuantian Sect, Su Yu still believed that she had her reasons.
Now, Du E's words had turned Su Ling into a traitor of the Hongmeng Continent. How could he tolerate this?
After Su Yu left, he went straight back to the training ground of the Xuantian Sect's disciples. He was ready to let the disciples compete well. This time, they must win first place. In the next faction competition, he would arrange for the people of the Xuantian Sect to stay in the worn-out woodshed of the Xuantian Sect.
When Su Yu arrived at the place where the disciples gathered, he found that no one was practicing. Instead, Jiujiu, who had the highest cultivation among them, was playing five-in-a-row chess with the eldest senior brother.
Su Yu was speechless.
Just now, Su Yu was thinking that the quality of the disciples participating in the faction competition was the highest. This time, he would definitely win first place. Now, his head was buzzing.
The others couldn't wait to train day and night. They actually had the time to play five-in-a-row chess. How could they win first place in this state?
Win first place?
Su Yu's face was gloomy. He coughed heavily.
The disciples of the Xuantian Sect heard the commotion and raised their heads. When they saw Su Yu again, they immediately stood up straight and called out, "Faction Master."
The disciples who were further away pulled each other and whispered, "The Faction Master is here."
