275: Chapter 104: Elder’s Suicide!_2 275: Chapter 104: Elder’s Suicide!_2 “Who is the Ghost-Faced Fiend?

Don’t ask that, but telling you, my beauty, doesn’t matter anyway.

You are something in my sleeve, inseparable from me for eternity.

He is Nan Bo Wang of the Sea Watch Sect.

Hah, thinking just because I know his identity, he would send me treasures every hundred years, and still wishes to cut ties with me?

Impossible.”

The world was silent.

The faces of the Wanyun Sect’s Immortals darkened with rage;

the Immortals of the Sea Watch Sect surged towards the direction away from the Third Elder;

even the Immortals who had come to watch the excitement, their expressions drastically changed, each starting to flee afar, fearing being silenced by the Sea Watch Sect today.

They had only come to watch the fun, not to become the fun themselves.

Li Dazhi suddenly spoke up, “This matter involves my Wanyun Sect but also does not involve my Wanyun Sect!

So it was this elder who has been secretly sullying the reputation of the Sea Watch Sect.

I thought the Sea Watch Sect followed the true orthodox Path of Immortality, why would they act so recklessly?

Now I understand!”

Having said that, Li Dazhi lifted his left hand:

“Retreat a hundred miles, fellow Immortals of the Wanyun Sect.

The matter is clear now.

With various Daoist friends and generals of the Eastern Alliance here, let’s wait for the Sea Watch Sect to give an explanation!”

The Wanyun Sect’s Immortals cursed loudly:

“This traitor deserves to be slain!”

“Master Dazhi!

We can’t easily let them go!”

“Master!

We can’t retreat!”

“Listen to me!” Li Dazhi turned his head and yelled, “Back to the teleportation formation!”

The Immortals took their orders, all retreating along the path they came.

This seemed somewhat anticlimactic but was actually Li Dazhi’s cunning ploy.

In hiding, Li Ping’an was watching with a smile and shaking his head.

Qing Su did not understand, “Now should be the time to pressure the Sea Watch Sect, to make them apologize.”

“Master,” Li Ping’an said softly, “This Heavenly Immortal elder is not going to survive.”

Lian Wenrou also asked, “Why?”

Before Li Ping’an had a chance to explain, a strong pressure emerged from the direction of the Sea Watch Sect’s gate.

It was as if ten thousand waves appeared between heaven and earth, causing the Qi Cultivators’ hearts to tremble.

An elder dressed in grey somehow appeared mid-air, looking down at the Third Elder of the Sea Watch Sect.

The grey-clothed elder merely watched in silence;

but the world felt as if a mountain had been added.

The Great Golden Immortal of the Sea Watch Sect!

The grey-robed elder closed his eyes, without uttering a single word from beginning to end.

The Third Elder’s beard trembled lightly, his Adam’s apple bobbing up and down as he looked at the figure above, wanting to speak but his voice was weak.

“It was me…

hahaha, I was momentarily blinded by ghosts…

hahaha!”

The Third Elder slowly stood up, looking as if it took great effort, smiling and crying at the same time, his white hair shaking.

He said in a trembling voice:

“These have nothing to do with the sect, it was I who wanted to climb higher within the sect, and secretly consorted with Demon Cultivators, committing many grave errors.

“It was all my doing!

“Master!”

The Third Elder’s legs bent, and he knelt down abruptly:

“Disciple has failed your expectations…

I wish alone to take responsibility for my actions…”

Pfft!

With a soft sound, a half-transparent dagger was held in the Third Elder’s right hand, piercing his chest in an instant, the dagger penetrating his Primordial Spirit.

The old man’s eyes bulged.

Perhaps he did not expect that severing his Primordial Spirit would be so painful; his old eyes filled with bloodshot, a trickle of fresh blood seeping from his mouth, his body slowly falling forward.

His immortal power collapsed suddenly, and streams of Spiritual Energy scattered into the world, blowing his Daoist Robe, blowing his long hair into disarray, blowing his True Spirit away.

This Third Elder lay upon the clouds.

Once more, silence ensued everywhere; no one moved forward to help.

The Great Golden Immortal of the Sea Watch Sect opened his eyes after a moment, bowed to the sky above, and then looked towards the heads of the Wanyun Sect’s Immortals:

“Kongming, is this explanation sufficient?”

Kongming, the old Daoist, revealed himself above the Wanyun Sect’s Immortals and said indifferently, “This is not an explanation for me; it’s for the Qi Cultivators of the East Continent.”

The Great Golden Immortal of the Sea Watch Sect coldly retorted, “Is your Wanyun Sect truly that clean?”

“The Wanyun Sect, whether clean or not, has never had sect members commit evil deeds in these ten thousand years,” Kongming, the old Daoist, said with a penetrating gaze, “I told you thirty thousand years ago that the Demonic Path should not be touched.

Tolerating such matters will only lead to great errors; today, you’re simply reaping what you’ve sown.”

The Great Golden Immortal of the Sea Watch Sect said, “Oh, that sounds nice.

You did quite the imposing act when you executed your own disciple back then.”

Kongming replied coldly, “I was but cleaning my own household.”

The Great Golden Immortal of the Sea Watch Sect stopped speaking to Kongming and turned his head, bowing slightly, and said slowly:

“My own sect has given rise to some blinded by greed and selfish desire, causing concern for all the Immortal Officials.

“Hereafter, the Sea Watch Sect will close its gates for a hundred years, strictly investigating this matter.

Please, Immortal Officials, come in to rest.”

“No need, it’s good that you’ve dealt with it.”

Daoist Zisang bowed ceremoniously:

“Since the Ghost-Faced Fiend has committed suicide in fear of his crimes, we won’t stay long, this matter should be reported to the deputy of the alliance.

“Moreover, the Eastern Alliance has just issued a purging decree, please inform all clans and sects that if they see Blood Fiend Hall Demon Cultivators, they are to be eradicated on the spot, and their heads are eligible for rewards.”

After speaking, Daoist Zisang turned and flew towards the sky, twelve Heavenly Immortals following.

Elsewhere, the Wanyun Sect’s Immortals were already starting to enter the teleportation formation.

Li Dazhi sheathed his longsword and stood with his hands behind his back, watching the Sea Watch Sect’s gate, lost in thought.

The sky above the Sea Watch Sect was mournful.

The Golden Immortal old Daoist descended next to the corpse of the Third Elder, looked down for a while, and spoke to the Sect Leader of the Sea Watch Sect through voice transmission:

“Give him a dignified burial.”

“Yes, Master.”

…

An hour later.

On a certain beach by the East Sea.

Twelve Heavenly Immortal generals waited in the clouds, while Qing Su and Li Ping’an were bidding farewell to Wen Rou and her apprentice Zisang.

The two Heavenly Immortal masters were quietly discussing something, seemingly about the delicacies of various places in the East Continent.

Their two disciples murmured amongst themselves, but they were discussing serious matters.
