379: Chapter 139 Loud Conspiracy and Soft Conspiracy 379: Chapter 139 Loud Conspiracy and Soft Conspiracy “Brother Li, why don’t you simply press down on them?

All the ancestors of the Sea Watch Sect were evil demons, and now there are still people daring to speak out of place?”

In the sole cabin of the cloud boat floating in the sky.

Ye Zisang watched Xu Sheng enter the Mountain Protection Array of the Sea Watch Sect and murmured softly.

“If you ask me, the Sea Watch Sect must be harboring some filth.”

Li Ping’an continued to fiddle with the puppet parts in his hands, smiling without a word.

This time, he had come to the Sea Watch Sect accompanied by many Golden Immortals, and it seemed that Senior Xu Sheng had no intention of leaving his side any time soon.

Qing Su had also taken a leave, staying in Dong’an City and taking Wen Ling’er to visit various restaurants.

At this moment, the only acquaintance by Li Ping’an’s side was Ye Zisang.

Ye Zisang moved away from the window, turned his head to Li Ping’an, and said helplessly, “Brother Li, are you listening to what I’m saying?”

“I’m listening, yeah.”

Li Ping’an firmly snapped two clasps into place and took up a carving knife, inscribing complicated prohibitions onto a spirit wood board no larger than a fingernail.

He squinted and said with a smile,

“Even if the Sea Watch Sect harbors filth, it is still one of the top ten immortal sects in the East Continent; its influence cannot be ignored on the shores of the East Sea.

We only need to uncover their filth and sweep away the winds of corruption here, that will be enough.”

“The remaining three Golden Immortals from their sect are merely confined for a thousand years and sent to the Azure Alliance for cultivation; they weren’t punished, the Sea Watch Sect will be subdued for a while, but its foundation is still intact.”

Ye Zisang said indignantly, “But their foundation was snatched through the methods of demon cultivators!”

“What can be done about it?

The death of their Golden Immortal ancestors has blocked all accusations against them.”

Li Ping’an put away the carved puppet components, looked up at Ye Zisang, and said solemnly,

“Brother Ye, do you have any grudge against the Sea Watch Sect?

If you do, I can intensify their troubles.”

Ye Zisang couldn’t help but laugh and cry, “No, wasn’t I just feeling indignant on your behalf?

The Sea Watch Sect has targeted you at every turn; have you forgotten?”

“They were targeting me?”

Li Ping’an laughed carefreely,

“They were just helping me build my reputation.

I have no interest in targeting them; after all…

how should I put it, their founding ancestor has been lured out by me, and I’m about to send their three Golden Immortal ancestors in; what more could I ask of them?

I don’t want Wanyun Sect to make more enemies.

At the very least, for this coming thousand years, I hope to keep the Sea Watch Sect in check.”

Ye Zisang pondered and then smiled, “Brother Li is right.

The Sea Watch Sect seems to have numerous disciples, but none are fit to be your opponents.”

Li Ping’an quickly said, “Don’t say that; I’m not even an immortal yet.”

“You’re not an immortal yet?”

Ye Zisang murmured softly,

“Our patriarch made it clear to me; the Heavenly Dao’s suppression prevents you from becoming an immortal, so you cleverly broke through with the method of Spirit Shedding, improving your strength right before the Heavenly Dao’s eyes.

I’ve never seen anyone as abnormal as you are at crossing the Heaven and Earth Bridge!”

Li Ping’an showed a helpless expression.

Fortunately, he hadn’t leaked the matter of the second Spirit Shedding.

Why did this Senior Tianli have to be such a loudmouth, broadcasting everything?

Had the relationship between him and his teacher Yun Zhongzi been exposed as well?

Good grief, if this reached his master’s ears, would his master overthink it?

Li Ping’an’s mind conjured up the image of his master, Qing Su, with her beautiful face pursed lips, and furrowed brows, eyes slightly rimmed with red, asking, “Was your apprenticeship to me all a lie?” and his Dao heart trembled.

He had sincerely taken Qing Su the Heavenly Immortal as his master!

Qing Su the Heavenly Immortal was his favorite master!

There was a difference between the terms “master” and “teacher”!

“Brother Li, Brother Li?”

Ye Zisang waved his hand in front of Li Ping’an’s face, “What are you thinking about?

They’ve opened the Mountain Protection Array, and the three Golden Immortals are coming out!”

Li Ping’an forced a stiff smile, wrapped his arm around Ye Zisang’s neck, and spoke softly, “Just mention a price to help me shut your patriarch up; he shouldn’t be spreading rumors about me everywhere!”

“Ah, well,” Ye Zisang grumbled, “it’s already spread throughout the upper ranks of the Azure Alliance.”

“I don’t care, he’s your patriarch, and you’d better think of a way!”

Li Ping’an tightened his grip, and Ye Zisang promptly cried out in pain.

“Brother Li, ease up a little!”

“To have such a bridge between heaven and earth…

I am a True Immortal Dao Body!

A True Immortal!

Ouch—my neck’s going to break!”

“Oh, it’s murder!

Help!”

The second steward and third commander on the deck turned their heads and each revealed a faint smile, conveying to each other in soft voices,

“These two young men have quite a good relationship.”

“Yes, indeed.”

Beneath the cloud boat.

Xu Sheng, with the three grey-robed elders, slowly ascended.

The three Golden Immortal warriors promptly stepped forward, one focusing on each, to invite the three Golden Immortals onto the cloud boat.

Li Ping’an and Ye Zisang had already returned to their formal composure.

Li Ping’an had intended to greet them side by side, but Ye Zisang unexpectedly stepped back half a pace, positioning himself to the right of Li Ping’an, and saluted the three Golden Immortals from the Sea Watch Sect with a cupped fist bow.

The three ancestor masters of the Sea Watch Sect looked at Li Ping’an with complex expressions.

One spoke in a deep voice, “My teacher-brother, he hadn’t miscalculated you, had he?”

“Elders speak incorrectly,” Li Ping’an looked up and met the man’s gaze directly, “Right and wrong are clear, with the three elders observing from afar, it should be apparent.

Whether it was the Sea Watch Sect’s deliberate provocations or the subsequent assault from the Blood Fiend Hall, my sect and I were victims.”

The man asked, “I’m asking, my teacher-brother didn’t miscalculate you, right?”

“Indeed.”

Li Ping’an calmly replied,

“Your teacher-brother was arrogant.

The arrangements for the assassination were hasty and flawed.

I merely went with the flow, invited some experts from the Azure Alliance to wait for an easy catch, and your teacher-brother walked right into the snare.”

“Alas…”

The old man bowed in salutation.

He said, “I admire you.

Kongming has found a good disciple.”

The central ancestor master of the Sea Watch Sect said in a low voice, “Although it’s odd for me to say this…

the Sea Watch Sect was established by my teacher-brother, using many underhanded methods that cannot stand scrutiny.

Claiming that the misfortune should not involve the sect makes one laugh, but I still wish to plead on behalf of the sect’s disciples.

Most of them were unaware of the dealings with the Blood Fiend Hall.”
