Chapter 291: Chapter 79: Did you just win over loneliness? 【Vote for the monthly ticket!】_1
"Such a shame." Empress Feng shook her head, "Just a bit more..."
"I knew it would end this way." Wang Xuanling snorted coolly, as if he had known all along that Jiang Yuebai would win.
Old Man Sikong, who was sitting next to him, glanced at him and chuckled without saying a word.
He had observed first-hand how Wang Xuanling had maintained a straight posture and a straight face, except his lips were trembling slightly, and his fingers clenched the sleeve of his clothes underneath the table in secret. It seemed he was always murmuring that Jiang Yuebai had to win.
The level of his anxiety probably surpassed that of Empress Feng by many times.
After all, if he really lost the head of the Peaks to Empress Feng, it would be an event that would bring shame to the ancestors of the Shu Mountain Sect. Put bluntly, what if something unexpected happened to Master Wen Yuan? Wouldn’t Empress Feng suddenly become the Shu Mountain Sect Leader then?
Could anyone imagine such a scene?
"What did you ’know’? My disciple, no matter how weak, made it to the finals by defeating yours. How could you dare talk big?" Empress Feng retorted immediately.
"You..." Wang Xuanling was momentarily speechless out of anger.
After giving out the Human Rights Tokens to the Chief Disciple on stage, Master Wen Yuan also flew back to the observation platform and prepared to leave.
Just then, a man stood up from the audience and landed in the center of the stage, drawing everyone’s attention.
This man, dressed as a scholar, appeared to be wide-faced and beardless. He exuded a calm maturity and smiled as he landed on the platform. He spoke up, "Master Wen Yuan, please stay, I have a question."
"Hmm?" All the Shu Mountain Sect people stood up and looked at this suddenly emerging man.
Master Wen Yuan raised his hand slightly to signal everyone to keep calm and asked from a distance, "Who might you be, sir? What would you like to ask?"
"My name is Lu Chengyou. I am just an insignificant little man," the scholar replied loudly, "I want to ask, as we all know, the Chief Disciple of Shu Mountain Sect holds the Human Rights Token, the head of the Peaks holds the Land Ownership Token, and the Sect Leader holds the Heavenly Rights Token. Master Wen Yuan, since you’ve been leading the Shu Mountain Sect for many years, you must certainly have the Heavenly Rights Token, correct?"
At these words, people were puzzled. Wasn’t it natural for the Shu Mountain Sect Leader to carry the Heavenly Rights Token? What was there to ask about?
However, the Pill Furnace Elder, the Law Enforcement Elder, including Old Man Sikong, these eldest figures of the Shu Mountain Sect, all had a subtle change in their expressions.
Master Wen Yuan calmly asked back, "Why are you interested in my Shu Mountain Sect’s Token, Mr. Lu?"
"Hehe, you don’t need to pretend to be confused when you understand everything." Lu Chengyou revealed a cold smile and raised his head, "In front of all the friends in the Immortal Cultivating World today, I just want to ask you one question. If you don’t have the Heavenly Rights Token, how could you possibly lead the Shu Mountain Sect?!"
"Oh——"
The audience was in an uproar.
Master Wen Yuan has been leading the Shu Mountain Sect for many years and his prestige is recognized by all. It’s surprising that an insignificant little man would dare to question him in public, which is quite brave.
He is a cultivator of the Eighth Realm!
In an era where Godly beings do not exist, the Eighth Realm is already the ceiling. Even though he seems amicable, with a wave of his hand, he can destroy mountain ranges and oceans!
How dare you do this?
However, in response to Lu Chengyou’s question, Master Wen Yuan did not get angry. Instead, he paused for a moment and said, "I have indeed lost the Heavenly Rights Token of Shu Mountain Sect many years ago and have yet to recover it. However, even without the Heavenly Rights Token, I have sat in the position of Shu Mountain Sect Leader for many years. If there is anything inappropriate in this, it should be raised by the Shu Mountain Sect disciples and Mr. Lu doesn’t need to worry about it."
Everyone felt his explanation was reasonable after listening.
This was, after all, an internal matter of the Shu Mountain Sect. It already showed Master Wen Yuan’s good temperament that he was willing to explain so much. Besides, if he had just taken office, he might be worried about this, but he has been the Sect Leader for many years and he no longer needs a Token to prove his identity.
"Hmph, am I not from the Shu Mountain Sect?" Lu Chengyou shook his head, "My family has been succeeding in the Shu Mountain Sect for over a thousand years, who among you in the Shu Mountain Sect dare to say that my Lu family are not part of the Shu Mountain Sect?"
"Lu Family... "
Everyone looked at each other and began whispering.
Empress Feng also nudged Old Man Sikong with her elbow, "Was there such a thing?"
"Ah..." Old Man Sikong sighed, "In the early years, the Lu family was indeed the first major family of the Shu Mountain Sect. Their ancestors had produced two Sect Leaders and nearly a third one..."
"So you are the nephew of the Lu family. In that case, you may stay in Shu Mountain and we can discuss any matter in detail later." Master Wen Yuan still spoke in a warm voice.
"So you admit that I’m from the Shu Mountain Sect, right?" Lu Chengyou laughed coldly again, "Do you see what this is?"
As he spoke, he held up a white jade Token high. Under his true Qi’s empowerment, it glistened brightly and carried a heavy aura of antiquity. One could vaguely see the word "Heaven" on it, the style of which was very similar to the one given to Jiang Yuebai earlier.
"The Heavenly Rights Token?"
Considering his previous words, everyone suddenly recognized what it was.
Lu Chengyou said word by word: "I belong to the Shu Mountain Sect, I stand on Shu Mountain, and I hold the Heavenly Rights Token. Who is qualified to order me?"
...
"This is where the Purple Green Double Swords chose to dwell. If you follow this cave all the way to the end, you should be able to see them." Elder Chuan Jian stood outside a cave on Sword Sheath Peak, guiding them: "At that time, the double swords will make their own choice. If you are chosen, you will become the Sword Master. If you are not chosen, don’t be sad, after all, it’s all about fate."
"Yes!" The four disciples responded in unison.
The cave ahead was spacious, and they all walked in together. There was indeed a strong residual sword Qi inside the cave, it seemed that the Purple Green Double Swords often passed through here.
Without the elders’ permission, ordinary disciples would absolutely not dare to enter, otherwise, they might be sliced apart by the Purple Green Double Swords as they passed.
As they continued into the belly of the mountain, the place suddenly opened up and two jade beds were placed on a high platform in the middle of the mountain. Each one bore array runes meant to nurture sword Qi, these must be the sword beds prepared by the Shu Mountain Sect for the double swords.
However, the Purple Green Double Swords were not there, and the cave was empty.
"Are they not here?" Ling Ao said aloud.
"The double swords love their freedom, they might have gone out to play." Jiang Yuebai said.
Chu Liang frowned, somehow, he had a hunch that things wouldn’t be that simple.
As soon as this thought crossed his mind, he heard a gust of wind behind him. A purple lightning bolt was speeding towards him, followed closely by a green dragon. The two sword lights were all flying towards Chu Liang’s face!
The intense sharp sword Qi made Chu Liang’s scalp explode, and his body immediately retreated, but the sword light was too fast and had already passed Chu Liang in an instant.
When he retreated, he ran into a cold sword body behind him, and a green sword in front of him followed, the purple and green lights started circling around him.
An ethereal voice echoed in the cave...only in a Sichuanese accent.
"I’ve chosen him, you go and choose another." A husky male voice said.
"I’ve also chosen him, why don’t you choose another?" A crisp female voice said.
According to the legend, Zi Ying Sword is masculine, and the Green Thread Sword is feminine. The male voice should be the Zi Ying Sword Spirit, and the female voice is the Green Thread Sword Spirit.
"I have to choose a boy, there are plenty of girls for you to choose from." The masculine sword said.
"Who says the feminine sword has to choose a girl? You can find other women, but I can’t find other men...I’m not the only one you’ve found." The feminine sword’s voice seemed a bit angry.
"Don’t be angry with me, this is important." The masculine sword insisted.
"I don’t care! I choose him!" The feminine sword puffed up.
The two rays circled around Chu Liang, neither willing to leave, constantly arguing back and forth.
This bizarre scene left Chu Liang rather confused, what exactly was going on? Were they witnessing a lovers’ quarrel? Who knew it was a bad idea for colleagues to date! This really interferes with their work...
The remaining three people also looked at each other, the Purple Green Double Swords seemed to be fighting over Chu Liang to be their sword master, while the three of them were completely ignored. This was really awkward.
Jiang Yuebai blinked on the side, everyone thought that since she was chief and a female, certainly one sword would choose her. But looking at the current situation...
Did she win loneliness?
"I’ve told you many times before, I was really discussing official matters with Baize. Even if she’s a female, she’s a divine beast, and I’m a sword...how could we possibly..." The masculine sword said helplessly.
"What kind of official matter do you have to discuss behind my back? You just go ahead and say it." The feminine sword was relentless.
Chu Liang thought to himself that this was bad, the Shu Mountain Sect was looking forward to the Double Sword Harmonization, if this couldn’t be clarified, the double swords might be headed for a divorce.
The masculine sword sighed: "Ok ok, I really have no solution for you, just listen to my explanation."
Feminine sword: "I’m not listening! I’m not listening! You go explain to other women!"
Masculine sword: "?"
Chu Liang, Xu Ziyang, Ling Ao: "?"
Jiang Yuebai, who was standing beside, couldn’t help but say: "You need to monitor your attitude, it is not her who is forcing you to explain, but you should take the initiative to explain your actions."
Feminine sword: "Right."
