Chapter 54 shrouded in mystery
Li Muyang and his group thought that if Feng Ling'er encountered Chen Xing, who resembled Yue Le, it would most likely be a fierce battle. Even Feng Ling'er herself was more vigilant than ever before.
As a result, the Moonflower faction... abstained.
Everyone present (???): As expected.
Li Muyang and his group: Huh? You voted?
Chenxing, who's eating candied hawthorn over there, hmm! He's voted!
Making it to the finals is enough! If a peak Mahayana cultivator really defeats this high-level Grandmaster girl, the Moonflower Sect will become the target of everyone's criticism—that's going too far! Anyone with a brain can see that Chenxing has a problem!
The Moonflower Sect has indeed declined significantly, with its members dwindling in number. Its leader, Chen Sheng, can no longer even defeat Wu Da. They can't afford to be too high-profile. If they were to actually fight Feng Ling'er, neither winning nor losing would be a good outcome. It's better to avoid trouble. They've already achieved their desired deterrent effect, so let's stop here!
Of course, the choice of the Yuehua Sect to surrender was not Chen Xing's own choice, but a decision made by Chen Sheng, the nominal leader of the Yuehua Sect, and his junior sister Chen Ling, the two leaders. In fact, it was something that Wu Zun Yue Le had instructed them to do before he came.
We can make it to the finals, but we can't win the championship!
Faced with this result, Li Muyang and his group could only look at each other speechlessly!
After being on guard for so long, they still voted!
Everyone present except for them thought it was expected, but Li Muyang and his group, including Master Cixin and a few others, were all depressed!
You... never mind, I have nothing to say!
Feng Ling'er inexplicably and easily won the championship of the martial arts gala, thus securing her place as the next leader of the martial arts alliance.
6.
The three members of the Moonflower Sect turned around and found Master Cixin, He Sui, and Bai Yue standing in front of them.
Chen Sheng, the leader of the Moonflower Sect, looked visibly nervous, shielding Chen Ling and Chen Xing behind him: "The three of you, is there something you need?"
The three ignored him and just stared at Chenxing.
After a long while, Chenxing was the first to give in. After a moment of blank stare, her eyes regained their clarity, and she became much more mature and composed.
"The three of you, is it really necessary?" Chen Xing said with a wry smile, "I admit that what I did was a bit underhanded, but did all three of you really have to come and ambush me?"
"It really is you!" Bai Yue exclaimed in surprise, then said with exasperation, "Aren't you ashamed! A mere half-cultivation level cultivator! Coming here to bully young people participating in the martial arts grand ceremony?"
Chen Xing... or rather, Wu Zun Yue Le smiled bitterly and remained silent. He Sui tugged at Bai Yue: "Keep your voice down."
Bai Yue snorted coldly and didn't reply.
Yue Le sighed helplessly: "Alas... there's no other way. The Yuehua Sect is dwindling in numbers, so I can only use this method to prolong its life. Otherwise, let alone maintaining its position among the six major sects, it's questionable whether the Yuehua Sect can even exist at all!"
"As you all have seen, the world is coming with overwhelming force, determined to unify the martial arts world. I was also startled by the matter of Jiaye Temple. We can't just watch them kill the Yuehua Sect, can we? I don't have the courage of Master Cixin! I could only scare you a little, but who knew it would be exposed so quickly."
At this moment, Chen Ling realized something, pointed at Chen Xing in shock, and asked her senior brother Chen Sheng, "No way? Senior Brother Sect Leader... Chen Xing is...?"
Seeing that he had been exposed, Chen Sheng could only confess honestly: "Well, junior sister, Chen Xing is actually Uncle Yue Le. The reason I brought you along this time is because you joined the sect late and have never met Uncle Yue Le before. Also, you are usually a bit more lively... cough cough, so act more naturally."
Chen Ling (；￢_￢): Thank you so much, Senior Brother! Actually, you only need to explain the first half of the sentence! You don't need to say the second half!
He Sui said with a smile, "If you hadn't abstained directly, we wouldn't have been able to determine your identity so quickly. We just didn't expect that Brother Yue Le would actually seal his memories in order to hide his identity?"
Yue Le could only shake her head with a wry smile: "Just a little trick, nothing compared to you! All three of you have actually broken through to the pinnacle!"
"What?" Chen Sheng and Chen Ling were startled. The three people in front of them had all broken through to the Perfect Realm?
No wonder my uncle exposed himself so quickly. Facing three people with supreme cultivation, it was definitely not a solution for him to continue pretending to be stupid. Whatever these three wanted to do, the others certainly couldn't stop them!
Yue Le looked at the three of them again and said, "Judging from your expressions, are you preparing to confront Tianxia Yi?"
"What else can we do?" Bai Yue crossed her arms, looking annoyed. "How long are we going to drag this out!"
Yue Le sighed: "Alas...so be it, I am no longer qualified to meddle in your affairs. I only hope that the three of you will go easy on the Yuehua Sect."
"Don't worry about that, we're not the best in the world," He Sui said with a light laugh.
"Brother Yue Le, rest assured, we simply want to clear Wuxiang City of its innocence," Master Cixin also stated.
Bai Yue's tone softened a bit: "We're old friends after all. There's a cause for every grievance, and I wouldn't hold a grudge against your Yuehua Sect. Don't worry."
Yue Le nodded, breathed a sigh of relief, and prepared to take Chen Sheng and Chen Ling away from this place of trouble.
Just then, Bai Yue called out to him, "Wait! Take this, no need to thank me. I was going to give it out anyway, but keep your eyes open and don't give it to anyone with impure intentions."
Yue Le took the textbook Bai Yue handed her, initially looking a little confused. After glancing at it a few times, her eyes narrowed! She exclaimed in shock, "You...you succeeded? How is that possible!"
Bai Yue smiled smugly: "Why not? Aren't the three of us the result?"
Yue Le fell into deep thought, and the three of them, without disturbing her, took their leave.
Watching the three leave, Chen Sheng whispered to Yue Le, "Uncle-Master, shall we go again?"
Yue Le snorted lightly: "Hmph! I'm not leaving! I'll watch the show! So what if we're exposed! It doesn't matter!"
With this in hand, there's a high probability that the Moonflower Sect can be revitalized! At the very least, maintaining its position among the six major sects won't be a problem! And we won't have to suffer from those bastards from the Martial Alliance anymore!
Secondly, Yue Le couldn't understand why Bai Yue and the others so easily published their research results. Wouldn't it have been better to keep them to themselves? Why make them public? And give them to her?
Judging from the situation, it's clear that three of the six major sects—Kasyapa Temple, Xiao Yi of Qiongwu Sword Pavilion, and himself—have already obtained this new system of cultivation techniques, in addition to Tianya Haige, a force no less powerful than the six major sects.
I've guessed the reason a bit. Now the Moonflower Sect has been dragged into the four-sect alliance! It would be a bit dishonest to just walk away like this. Since we've accepted this precious gift, we should at least stand on the same side!
However, if that's all there is to it... doesn't seem like a good enough reason?
Meanwhile, Bai Yue and the others were also discussing the matter.
"You just gave it to Yue Le like that?" He Sui was a little confused. Bai Yue and Yue Le didn't seem to have that kind of relationship.
Bai Yue snorted softly, then her expression turned serious and worried: "Hmph... It's strange, ever since I stepped into the venue of the Martial Arts Grand Ceremony, I've felt a little uneasy!"
Master Cixin chanted a Buddhist prayer: "Amitabha... I feel the same way about the white moon! Our plan has gone a little too smoothly! Our infiltration operation has not encountered the slightest hindrance! Is the world really that stupid?"
He Sui scratched his head. He had been living in seclusion for so long that he had to admit that his sixth sense and experience were a bit behind. Now, after being reminded by the two of them, he also felt that something was not quite right.
With so many people, each one stronger than the last, how could they deploy themselves so easily?
Tianxia Yi, who was in charge of security at the venue, didn't seem to notice anything at all? It was as if Dongfang Yao's Heart Extreme had completely failed!
Putting everything else aside, even Yue Le, who was at the half-level, could sense that the three of them had broken through to the pinnacle. How could Dongfang Yao not sense it? Couldn't he recognize them? They also listened to Li Muyang's words and did not deliberately hide their realms. They wanted to use this to put pressure on Tianxia Yi and make Dongfang Yao panic when he found out.
Logically speaking, their current overall strength is more than enough to sweep aside the world's strongest! They're practically shoving each other in the face! Why isn't Dongfang Yao worried at all?
The result was that Tianxia Yi completely ignored them! It was as if Tianxia Yi had forgotten the past grievances between them, and didn't care what the three of them did, almost lining them up to welcome them! This strange atmosphere made everyone hesitant to carry out their original plan.
The only time the other party took the initiative to come forward was when they went to find Li Muyang!
Could it be that, in Dongfang Yao's eyes, Li Muyang is more important than the three of them combined?
Okay, that's true. The question is, how exactly did he find out? Just based on the time Li Muyang dealt with Wuda?
With these doubts in mind, none of the three dared to make a decision easily, so they decided to discuss it with Li Muyang.
We must devise a strategy before Feng Ling'er is officially awarded the title of champion! Because that will be the time when the original plan is officially implemented and we confront Tianxia Yi!
The inn at Tianya Haige was booked out by the entire company.
Everyone [?ヘ??]: "..."
They all fell silent, unsure of what to do.
Li Muyang looked at Shen Feiyan and Bai Muzhen, who had secretly disguised themselves and run over, and asked, "Aunt Bai, Uncle Feiyan, how's the operation going on your side? How is Chongming's situation?"
Bai Muzhen frowned and said, "...I'm starting to doubt whether Chongming is already dead! When you taught Wu Da a lesson before, everyone was on guard. I took the opportunity to go to the forbidden area of the world to investigate, but... there was no movement at all in the coffin!"
"Not knowing the old ghost's situation, I didn't dare to open it to check in order to avoid alerting him."
Shen Feiyan also took out some items and said, "If you want to find evidence of collusion between Tianxiayi and Qinglonghui, I have already obtained it here, including the content of framing Wuxiang City back then. To be on the safe side, I also took a few pieces of Hongyang Blood Essence from Qinglonghui's warehouse. There are too many, and even if they start to move them now, they can't take them all!"
Their words only deepened everyone's confusion and seriousness! Their coordination was far too perfect!
