âFive Elements Immortal Sect, Inner Sect.â
âMy name is Jing Yao.â
Jing Yao stood with his hands clasped behind him, his head tilted slightly upwards, speaking with an extremely arrogant demeanor.
Actually, after a little analysis,
It turns out Jing Yao did indeed possess such an arrogant posture.
One side was an Inner Sect Disciple of the Immortal Sect.
...
The other, merely a familial power in the mortal world.
Although the developmental momentum of the Qingshi City Luo Family had been quite formidable in recent years,
it did not interfere with the noble status of Jing Yaoâs identity.
Of course, all these presumptions were based on the premise that Patriarch Luo Changfeng was not among the Qingshi City Luo Family.
After all, who could have anticipated that Patriarch Luo Changfeng,
sitting in residence at the Qingshi City Luo Family, had an ace up his sleeve?
No one would have guessed that Luo Changfeng, the Ancestor of the Luo Family, could also be the current Sect Master of the Great Flame Dynastyâs Wan Dan Sect Sub-sect.
Nobody would have thought that Patriarch Luo Changfeng had connections with the so-called Carefree Monk.
If the Five Elements Immortal Sect were aware of this information,
itâs likely that they would choose to abandon the Great Flame Dynasty at the first opportunity,
and even, for fear of offending the Qingshi City Luo Family,
the Five Elements Immortal Sect might expel the Crown Prince of the Great Flame Dynasty who had become a disciple under one of their elders.
Donât think such a scenario is improbable.
Reality is indeed this cruel and unfeeling.
Between a Sect Disciple and a rival with great potential,
at least any person with a bit of sense
would know which one to choose and which one to abandon.
â¦
âFive Elements Immortal Sect, Inner Sect, Jing Yao?â
Inside the room.
Sitting in the seat of honor was Luo Ping, the current Family Head of the Luo Family.
Listening to the person in front of him self-report his status,
a myriad of thoughts flashed through his half-closed eyes.
Patriarch Luo Changfeng was clear in his mind
the Five Elements Immortal Sect could not provoke him.
However, Luo Ping, the current Family Head of the Luo Family, did not understand the true power of their family ancestor.
Therefore, his attitude towards the person before him was still quite cautious.
âYouâve come to our Qingshi City Luo Family to offer us a way to live?â
âWhat do you mean by this?â
Luo Ping furrowed his brows slightly, asking softly.
Jing Yao responded with a slight smile. Then, he spoke with a posture that was quite arrogant, âDo you know the kind of relationship between the Great Flame Dynasty and the Five Elements Immortal Sect?â
âDo you know who the Crown Prince of the Great Flame Dynasty has taken as his master?â
âEven if we donât mention the relationship between the Five Elements Immortal Sect and the Great Flame Dynasty,â
âjust the power currently controlled by the Great Flame Dynasty is already overwhelmingly crushing your Qingshi City Luo Family.â
âTherefore, am I wrong to say that I came here to give your Qingshi City Luo Family a way to live?â@@novelbin@@
The words of Jing Yao lingered slowly in the room.
Luo Yao opened his mouth as if he wanted to say something.
But, after pondering for a moment,
he ultimately could not voice the thoughts in his heart.
And Luo Ping, sitting in the seat of honor as the current Family Head of the Luo Family,
after hearing this, simply watched silently the Inner Sect Disciple Jing Yao of the Five Elements Immortal Sect before him.
He remained silent for a moment, then spoke softly.
âFive Elements Immortal Sect, indeed an Immortal Sect.â
âThere is no doubt about the strength of the Five Elements Immortal Sect.â
âHowever, I donât agree with your statement about the relationship between the Five Elements Immortal Sect and the Great Flame Dynasty.â
âFive Elements Immortal Sect, thatâs an Immortal Sect.â
âThey value the path of Immortal Cultivation above all, and they seldom willingly engage in worldly competition.â
âEven without discussing this point,
âjust the relationship between the Five Elements Immortal Sect and the Great Flame Dynasty, I think, is insufficient for the Five Elements Immortal Sect to get involved in this mundane conflict.â
Upon hearing this,
Jing Yao momentarily stared in astonishment.
However, it was only for a brief moment.
Suddenly, his expression turned ugly.
A twitch appeared at the corner of his eye,
and a flicker of murderous intent passed through them.
âQingshi City Luo Family, are you not appreciating the favor offered to you?â
âCan you not understand human speech?â
âDo you think Iâm here to negotiate with you?â
Jing Yao spoke, his face cold, as he walked forward.
Although a cultivator at the Initial Realm of Blood Refinement,
wasnât considered strong within the Five Elements Immortal Sect.
That level, if in the cultivation world of the mortal realm,
would already be considered high-end combat power.
âHalt, who goes thereâ¦â
Just as Jing Yao approached to a certain distance,
suddenly, a figure in black with a head of silver-white long hair,
whose stature seemed a little stooped and unremarkable at a glance,
but with an aura stronger than that of the Initial Realm of Blood Refinement, appeared.
This elder suddenly appeared between Jing Yao and Luo Ping.
Upon seeing this person, Luo Ping slowly exhaled in relief.
And upon seeing him, Jing Yao also halted his advance.
His expression gradually became even more troubled.
âAncestor of the Luo Family, Luo Changfeng?â
Jing Yao asked in a low voice, his brows tightly locked in a probing manner.
âThis is my master.â
One of the three Shadow Guard Commanders under Luo Changfeng, Zhen, spoke in a slightly hoarse voice.
âYouâre not Luo Changfeng?â
Once Jing Yao got the answer he wanted,
his face gradually took on a more solemn tone.
The person before him was not simple.
Although it seemed he hadnât reached the Mortal Transcendence above Blood Refinement,
if this old fellow wanted to deal with him, a cultivator at the Initial Realm of Blood Refinement,
it would merely be as easy as flipping his hand.
âI am an Inner Sect Disciple of the Five Elements Immortal Sect.â
âQingshi City Luo Family, do you really not fear the wrath of my Five Elements Immortal Sect?â
Jing Yao took two steps back,
shifting his gaze back to Luo Ping, who was sitting at the hostâs seat.
He took a deep breath and then once again threatened.
âAs I saidâ¦â
Luo Ping picked up the teacup, took a sip to moisten his throat, and then continued, âThe Great Flame Dynasty is the Great Flame Dynasty, the Five Elements Immortal Sect is the Five Elements Immortal Sect, the two cannot be conflated. Even if the Crown Prince of the Great Flame Dynasty has joined one of the many elders in the Five Elements Immortal Sect and has become the personal disciple of an elder under the Immortal Sect, what does that represent? It represents nothing.â
âSo, if you wish to suppress the Qingshi City Luo Family with this tactic, thereâs no need to waste any more words.â
âBesides, you can leave now.â
âSince you are an Inner Sect Disciple of the Five Elements Immortal Sect, I can choose not to act against you.â
Luo Ping waved his hand, signaling for him to be dismissed.
Meanwhile, inside the room,
the Inner Sect Disciple of the Five Elements Immortal Sect, Jing Yao, had a face black as ink.
Although he was reluctant to admit it,
the current Family Head of Qingshi City Luo Family, Luo Pingâs words were indeed true.
The Five Elements Immortal Sect is the Five Elements Immortal Sect,
and the Great Flame Dynasty is the Great Flame Dynasty.
Naturally, the Great Flame Dynasty could not represent an Immortal Cultivator Sect like the Five Elements Immortal Sect,
unless the people of the Qingshi City Luo Family,
ended up keeping the life of this Inner Sect Disciple of the Five Elements Immortal Sect within their territory.
For the sake of face, the Five Elements Immortal Sect might pay attention to this matter.
But the question is, is Jing Yao really willing to pay with his life just for a bit of favor from his fellow disciple?
Clearly, itâs nearly impossible.
Oh, no.
It should be said, itâs absolutely impossible.
Compared to his fellow discipleâs favor,
Jing Yao would naturally cherish his life more.
No matter what,
he is still an Inner Sect Disciple of the Five Elements Immortal Sect,
and furthermore, he still has some room for promotion.
His future holds hope.
He canât possibly leave his life behind in a place like the Qingshi City Luo Family.
âSighâ¦â
Taking a deep breath and slowly exhaling,
Jing Yao, seeing that he could not succeed in his task, could only turn around reluctantly and walk toward the outside of the Luo Family Ancestral Land.
Of course, when he left, he didnât leave any harsh words behind,
because there was no need for that anymore.
