"I'll help you?" Yan Li smiled bitterly.
He knew that this matter couldn't be reversed and the others wouldn't agree. Even his Senior Brother couldn't do it and had no right to change it. Even his Senior Brother couldn't do whatever he wanted in the Purple Golden Cave. Everything had to be done according to the rules.
After a moment of silence, Gong Lince sighed, "Junior Brother, go back and rest first. Come and see me before you depart. I have something to tell you. It might not be as dangerous as you think."
Actually, after deciding to let Yan Li enter the Saint State, he was also worried about Yan Li's safety. At least, he didn't want Yan Li to die early. Niu Youdao had stayed in the Saint State for a long time and had experience. He was even able to steal the Immeasurable Fruit. Therefore, he specially asked Niu Youdao for advice on how to survive.
There was a way, but there was no fixed method at all. One had to act according to the situation or plan for the long term. However, with Yan Li's ability, Niu Youdao did not expect Yan Li to have that ability. He only gave him a word of advice, that by sticking together with the other seven sects, they would be able to live longer.
Gong Lince planned to tell Yan Li about this method. However, this wasn't a solution. Yan Li's current state of mind wouldn't be able to listen to him. If he told him now, it might cause a dispute. It was better to wait until Yan Li started to consider his safety.
Yan Li left in a daze.
Gong Lince, who was alone in the hall, flipped the bamboo tube. Another broken chopstick fell from the bamboo tube into his palm. No matter which chopstick Yan Li pulled, or which chopstick he pulled first, he would always pull the broken chopstick.
If it was someone else, they might ask for a test if they picked the broken chopstick. This method wouldn't work then.
However, Yan Li wouldn't. Yan Li would never suspect that his Senior Brother would deliberately harm him in this matter. He would only think that he was unlucky. As for the others who were lucky enough to avoid it, they wouldn't cause any problems and wouldn't think of checking again.
Everything had been calculated by Niu Youdao. He had come up with a plan that left Yan Li helpless. Furthermore, he had won everyone's admiration and praised him for being a fair Sect Leader!
"No wonder that bastard dared to run amok in the Saint State. If he didn't have this ability, he wouldn't have been able to get that thing …" Yan Li murmured.
The broken chopsticks turned into powder in Gong Lince's hands, and he let out a long sigh towards the sky …
One could imagine how Yan Li was feeling right now. At this moment, the Elders who had just escaped a calamity returned to their own side and immediately instructed their disciples to watch over their subordinates. They couldn't afford to cause any trouble at this time and repeatedly reminded them not to provoke Yan Li's people. Even if the people on Yan Li's side were to provoke them on purpose, they had to endure it. In short, they couldn't give Yan Li a chance to change the result of the drawing of lots.
It would be their turn to suffer misfortune once Yan Li got rid of them. Everything would have to wait until Yan Li entered the sage realm.
Yan Li's backer, Gong Lince, was the Sect Master, which made them rather fearful.
Those who had to leave still had to leave. Before Yan Li went to the Saint Land, the people of the Thatched Cottage had to leave first.
It was Niu Youdao's decision to evacuate as soon as possible, even if it meant giving up some of his belongings!
Yan Li did not go to the Thatched Cottage for the time being, nor was he in the mood.
After calming down and facing reality, he began to consider the reality and make plans for what would happen after he left. Before he left, he would fight for a good position for his disciples.
It would be a pity not to use such a good opportunity. This was the time to bargain. Thinking back to the time when Niu Youdao went to the sage realm, didn't he bargain with the sect as well?
This was also after a conversation with Gong Lince. Gong Lince had instructed Yan Li to do this. On one hand, it was to make up for Yan Li. On the other hand, if Yan Li left, his authority as the Sect Master would be weakened. He wanted to take the opportunity to help Yan Li's people occupy some important positions so that he could continue to control the internal situation of the sect.
First of all, Yan Li was going to die for the sect this time. It was reasonable for the others to give in to him. Secondly, the other Elders didn't want to provoke Yan Li at this time. Under Gong Lince's covetous eyes, they were afraid of causing trouble and causing unnecessary trouble.
Therefore, the people on Yan Li's side were both happy and worried. They were worried that their master was going to the sage realm and might not return. They were happy that a few of Yan Li's disciples were promoted at the same time and occupied some of the positions of the deacons. Their master risked his life in exchange for their promotion. How could these people not be happy?
Gong Lince was also very busy. He had to arrange for Yan Li to go to the sage realm and Zhong Guzi's affairs.
Zhong Guzi got the Immeasurable Fruit and was ready to break through. Gong Lince had to secretly arrange the supply of some resources.
There was also the impact of the war in the three countries on the Yan side. For example, Wei Guo's request for help and so on. All these needed to be handled and decided by him as the Sect Master. Purple Golden Cave had a lot of authority in the Yan Sect now. If Purple Golden Cave didn't agree, Wei Guo couldn't beg anyone on the Yan Sect's side. He could only beg Purple Golden Cave.
Even if he got the Immeasurable Fruit, he didn't have time to use it at ease …
At the foot of Purple Golden Cave, beside the official road, Ju An and Wen Mo 'er went down the mountain together to send off the people of Thatched Cottage.
Ju An represented the Tortoise Sleeping Pavilion. Wen Mo 'er represented Gong Lince. She was his adopted daughter. She represented Gong Lince and also represented Purple Golden Cave.
Whether Gong Lince was busy or not didn't matter. Niu Youdao wasn't here anymore. These people didn't deserve him to send them off personally. It was enough for him to send his adopted daughter. It could be considered as saving face. The other people of Purple Golden Cave didn't want to pay attention to the people of Thatched Cottage.
"Where are you going?" Ju An finally asked. He knew that he couldn't help much even if he asked.
Guan Fangyi was a little sad and said, "Let's make the best of it!"
In fact, she wasn't sad at all. She was very happy. Daoye was back. It was better than being locked in the sage realm and not knowing when something bad would happen.
And she liked the prosperity of the city. She wanted to go to the capital of the Southern State.
Under the management of Shang Chaozong, the Southern State was well governed and expanded several times. In terms of prosperity, it was second only to Yan Jing in the whole Yan Sect. It was much better than staying in the mountains. How could she not be happy? But she had to pretend to be sad in front of others for the time being.
As for where they were going, she wouldn't reveal it now. Except for the people who made the decision, no one else knew where they were going.
"Ai!" Wen Mo 'er sighed softly.
"Let's go!" Yuan Gang, who was not far away, shouted after checking the team.
"Farewell. We'll meet again if fate allows it." Guan Fangyi cupped her hands to bid farewell to the couple.
The couple replied, "Take care on the way!"
Guan Fangyi didn't stay any longer. With a forced smile, she turned around and mounted the horse. She waved her hand and led the people of Fu Fang Garden to the front to open the way.
The team officially set off. A large number of horses and carriages were allocated by Purple Golden Cave.
Those birds and mounts were temporarily given to Purple Golden Cave. Even Niu Youdao couldn't just take them back. The key was that Gong Lince couldn't do it. If Gong Lince forcefully returned them, he wouldn't be able to explain to Purple Golden Cave. The problem was that it would easily arouse suspicion.
What's more, those birds couldn't carry so many people and things at once, so Niu Youdao wasn't in a hurry.
However, it was not a problem to transfer a group of horses. Whether or not the Purple Golden Cave was unreasonable, or whether or not they should give the horses, it was all up to Gong Lince. No one would make life difficult for the Sect Leader over such a small matter. If Gong Lince said to give it, the Purple Golden Cave would give it.
Other than horses, there was also a group of carriages, some for pulling goods and some for carrying people.
Fire Phoenix and Hui Qingping, who shouldn't show their faces, were in the carriages. There was also the half-dead Yuan Fang, who was lying in one of the carriages. The monks of Nanshan Temple took turns to board the carriages to serve them.
Almost all the disciples of Mount Five Liang were carrying eagle cages on their backs. A large number of golden messengers followed them.
This scene made Sect Leader Gongsun Bu secretly sigh. With the death of Niu Youdao, the future of Mount Five Liang became something he had to consider. For the time being, he could only follow the group and see how the people of Thatched Cottage Villa were settling down.
Purple Golden Cave sent a few disciples to escort them. Niu Youdao was among them, following the group.
He hid in the group, hid in the world, and disappeared from many people's sight. For many people, Niu Youdao was already a thing of the past.
With Guan Fangyi and Yuan Gang's cooperation, the disciples of Purple Golden Cave didn't know that Niu Youdao was from Thatched Cottage Villa. The people of Thatched Cottage Villa thought that he was from Purple Golden Cave.
Almost all the people in the group were carrying bags of various sizes. They were seriously moving.
They came and left. The people of Thatched Cottage Villa had officially left Purple Golden Cave. Many people were worried about their future.
Ju An and Wen Mo 'er watched the group disappear around the corner before they turned their heads and looked at each other.
The two of them didn't know where the people of Thatched Cottage Villa were going, nor did they know what their future would be like. They were like transient visitors to Purple Golden Cave. They didn't know if other things had changed. They only knew that because of these people, the two of them were destined to be together for life.
"Niu Youdao came out of nowhere and dominated both the cultivation world and the secular world. He was so dazzling. If he was here, who would dare to be a hero among his peers? He would make all the talents of his generation pale in comparison. He left a story in the cultivation world at such a young age and left in a hurry at such a young age. The smoke he stirred up dissipated just like that. "Wen Mo 'er sighed with melancholy.
Toward Niu Youdao, she was reluctant at first, but later she was willing. In the end, she had no choice. Now she had decided that she would never think about him again and would abide by the ways of a woman.
But that person still left something in her heart. Maybe it was the regret of not being able to get what she wanted. In the end, he left a little bit of melancholy in her heart. This was something her husband could not give her.
What kind of person could give what kind of thing or feeling.
She was very clear and understood that she was just one of the many people around Niu Youdao. Her role was just different. Although many men in Purple Golden Cave admired her, in the eyes of people like Niu Youdao, he would not care about her. Maybe he had never cared about her. It was really just his own wishful thinking.
But Ju An didn't know. He reached out and grabbed her hand. "We can't help them. We can only wish them well. Let's go back."
Wen Mo 'er smiled softly and walked away with him hand in hand. They went back to their own home …
While the people of Thatched Cottage Villa were on their way, the news that Niu Youdao had died in the Saint Realm spread like wildfire among all the forces in the world.
