Chapter 346 - Do I Look Like Someone Who Has No Integrity
346 Do I Look Like Someone Who Has No Integrity
At that time, almost all the representatives of the main sects of Central Plains had witnessed everything in the Jade Mirage Palace.
Ling Hua returned to the Jade Mirage Sect and killed the traitor, Zhi Chunqiu, and his accomplices. After the impartation and tablet-opening ceremony, she directly took over the position of Sect Master of the Jade Mirage Sect. this news spread throughout the entire central continent on the same day.
The next day, the Green Centipede sent out a notice to spread the news.
Soon after, other large and small immortal cultivation sects came one after another to congratulate the new Sect Master on her appointment. They sent congratulatory gifts, tried to build relationships, and inquired about the situation.
Naturally, there was no lack of people who came to ask about the whereabouts of the suspected demon who had been framed on the Spirit Transformation River with Fairy Ling Hua.
After all, this man had once been named Jiang Feng, but his real name was Liu Junxuan. He had made a name for himself during the Singing Sword contest, and suddenly became the Grand Elder of the Sky Treasure Pavilion. He had also been involved in a series of illicit affairs, so he was quite famous to some extent.
Also, on the day Ling Hua took office, Divine Lord White Tiger appeared outside of Chiyu Villa and arrived at the mountain gate of the Jade Mirage Sect.
It just so happened that the world could trace back to the place where Liu Yuan first appeared, which was Chiyu Villa. He was also closely related to the matter of Ling Hua being framed.
According to Mr. Ning, the former Dock Master of the Water Moon Dock, who didn’t want to reveal his name, Liu Junxuan had once taken out the authentic artwork of the Saint.
For a time, the rumor that Liu Junxuan, who had appeared out of nowhere, was a disciple of a Saint, started to spread.
However, it was a pity that no matter how they asked, the information they got was that this person was a young hero. Unfortunately, the heavens were jealous of the talented. After being possessed by the demon race, he still retained a certain amount of consciousness. In the end, after escorting Ling Hua and escaping from the Spirit Transformation River, he unfortunately died.
Although there were many suspicious points in his words, no one dared to question it, since fairy Ling Luan had personally verified it.
However, some people thought about it carefully and associated it with the love triangle incident that had caused an uproar previously. They knew that there must be something fishy about this.
It was just that this was obviously a deliberate situation, so everyone had a tacit understanding.
In fact, Liu Yuan could not let the rumor that he had died be true. He had to leave some doubts.
Although it was easy for him to send a message with the power he had in Bi Luo Mansion, he still needed time.
If they did not send the news in time and made some people really anxious, things would be very bad.
Thus, this suspicious situation was the best way to delay the enemy.
“When do you plan to leave?”
In the room.
The new Sect Master of the Jade Mirage Sect, who was in the limelight, was sitting in Liu Yuan’s arms and raising her head to ask a question. Her dark eyes contained a gentle gaze.
In the eyes of outsiders, this newly appointed Sect Master of Jade Mirage had the air of a celestial being and looked down on everyone. She was like a cold and beautiful fairy from the Nine Heavens, unattainable.
However, the person in front of Liu Yuan now was just a woman with a tender heart.
Liu Yuan placed his hands on Ling Hua’s waist and said, “The Ye Family Head of the Xuanyin family will come to see me. By the time she arrives, my letters will have already been delivered to them. I’ll take care of the matters that need to be dealt with during this period of time, and then I’ll set off for the North mansion.”
“Ye Family Head…”
Ling Hua chewed on the words. Then, she looked at Liu Yuan’s serious expression and revealed a faint smile. “Ye Cike’s mother? You’re not planning to do something to both mother and daughter, are you? It is said that the women of the Xuanyin family are still virgins…”
“No, no, no,” Liu Yuan said sternly. “How could that be? Do I look like someone who has no integrity?”
Ling Hua put her arms around his neck, looked at him, and said, “If the Xuanyin family can be taken down like this, I will support it. When we reunited, I said that I will support you in everything that benefits you.”
Liu Yuan was very determined, “impossible!” If I do this, what will Cike do?”
“Oh? I also heard that the successor of East Ocean Valley, Duan Lian, has already left the valley and displayed her talents in the desert sea battlefield. I remember that she is Duan Lanruo’s daughter. The mother and daughter rely on each other and have a deep relationship. I wonder if city Lord Duan is willing to betroth her?”
“…”
For a moment, Liu Yuan felt that Ling Hua might have bribed Zhiying.
But fortunately, Ling Hua seemed to only want to see Liu Yuan’s embarrassed look. She chuckled and said, “Alright, I’m not here to condemn you. If I really want to condemn you, I should be asking you where you sent those hundred letters.”
The corner of Liu Yuan’s eyes twitched. He felt that this gentle smile was full of daggers.
He coughed twice and said, “After I go to the North Mansion, Hong Luan and Zhizhi will stay in the Jade Mirage Sect for the time being. They are not strong enough. It will only increase the danger if I bring them along.”
Ling Hua nodded and continued, “Netherworld…”
She suddenly paused, then pushed Liu Yuan and said, “Let’s hide first, someone’s coming.”
“Sect Master, the messenger from the Sea Slashing Tower requests an audience.”
“I know.” Ling Zheng frowned slightly. If the messenger of the Sea Slashing Tower had come to congratulate them, he should have come with the people from the other sects a few days ago. Why did he come now, and in private?
A moment later, the Guihuan Elder pushed the door open and came in with his Double Serpent Staff.
Behind him, there was a crying little girl.
Ling Hua knew this little girl.
But to be precise, they did not know each other, but Liu Yuan had specially investigated it.
It was the youngest daughter of Chiyu Villa’s Master – Gu Siyin.
The girl in red was only 14 or 15 years old. She had a petite figure and a beautiful face. Her big black eyes were filled with tears, and her white cheeks had some cute baby fat.
However, Gu Siyin, who was supposed to be an ordinary person in the information, was now a Foundation Establishment cultivator.
“May I know what brings you here, Emissary?”
Ling Hua’s gaze shifted from Gu Siyin to the hunched-over Guihuan Elder.
Guihuan Elder sighed helplessly. “I wanted to bring the descendant of the Black Tortoise back. The original candidate was your cult’s disciple, Gu Chang, but he had already joined the Jade Mirage Sect and was determined to follow this path. It was not good for me to interfere, so I settled for the second best and chose Gu Siyin. After asking for her opinion, I was going to return to the Sea Slashing Tower.”
“Then now she is….” Ling Hua was puzzled.
Gu Siyin’s eyes were red, and she didn’t look like she was willing. She sobbed and said, “Brother Junxuan… Soob, sob… Sob… Sect Master Sister, is Brother Junxuan, is he…”
Although it was just a few words, Ling Zheng immediately understood what was going on. Although the rumors were confusing, to an immature child like Gu Siyin, there was no way she could have thought so deeply about it. She only heard that Liu Junxuan had been killed on the Spirit Transformation River, and it was as if the sky had fallen and the earth had sunk. She instantly forgot about everything else.”
Guihuan Elder said with a dark face, “Quickly ask that kid to come out!”
Guihuan Elder had a pair of sharp eyes and a profound cultivation base, so he naturally knew that someone was hiding in this room.
He was still in a hurry to bring his Black Tortoise back, who would have thought that he would come out like this!
“Siyin.” Gu Siyin was stunned when she heard the voice. She looked towards the source of the voice with her tear-stained face.
The young man, who was no different from usual, was standing in the corner of the room with a gentle smile.
The girl pounced on him with a cry, finally having a place to vent her longing and sadness.”Wow, wow! Big Brother Junxuan! You didn’t die!”
Liu Yuan knelt down guiltily and hugged Gu Siyin. He coaxed her, “I’m not dead, I’m not dead. Little Siyin, don’t cry anymore. You won’t look good if you continue to cry.”
Gu Siyin hugged her beloved brother Jun Xuan tightly. It was warm, real, familiar, and even the smell was the same. She sobbed and wiped her tears on his clothes.
“Stinky Brother Junxuan, you can’t leave me behind even if I’m not pretty anymore! You said you would marry me!”
“Alright, alright…”
Knock, knock.
Guihuan Elder knocked his walking stick with a dark expression. He had a feeling that the Black Tortoise Divine Lord he had tried so hard to persuade had been taken away from the very beginning.
