Chapter 293: Chapter 80: Lu Family Chaos, Tao Wu Appears 【Seeking Monthly Tickets!】_2

The details of what happened within the sect were unknown to the outside world, but in the end, Master Wen Yuan successfully inherited the position of Sect Leader. It was not long before it was discovered that the Lu Family had mysteriously vanished from Shu Mountain. No one knew where they had gone, or even if they were alive or dead...

Master Wen Yuan has held his position for one hundred and fifty years today. During his tenure, he has extended the legacy left by Master Wuqi admirably, and the development of Shu Mountain has been stable. He could be considered a competent Sect Leader. As a result, the various disputes that arose around his accession were never brought up again over the years.

...

So when Lu Chengyou suddenly appeared out of the blue, many cultivators from the surrounding Immortal Sects were kept in the dark. It was puzzling that this man seemed to be pulling the strings, yet he was holding the Heavenly Rights Token, a symbol that only the Shu Mountain Sect Leader would possess - it was certainly a shocking spectacle.

The crowd was instantly abuzz.

In response to Lu Chengyou’s strong presence, Master Wen Yuan chose to remain silent for the moment.

Just then, two individuals stood up.

A woman dressed in red, Empress Feng, stood up abruptly and was about to speak. But seeing the cold indifference old woman in black robes also stand, she chose to keep silent.

The law Enforcement Elder spoke in a frosty tone: "The return of the Lu Family’s descendant is a cause for celebration. Especially since you’ve managed to recover the long-lost Heavenly Rights Token for Shu Mountain, this merits great praise. As such, your return to the mountain is something that could be easily arranged."

"Hmph." Lu Chengyou snorted coldly upon hearing this, "Elder, do you think you can get the Heavenly Rights Token just by sweet talking?"

"We’re not trying to take advantage of you for nothing. Isn’t this allowing you to rejoin the Shu Mountain Sect? Do you think it’s easy for others to join?" Empress Feng responded from the sideline, "How about this? We also give you 500 Sword Coins as a reward. Once you return, you’ll join my Silver Sword Peak. You’ll be the second senior brother right away, isn’t that wonderful?"

"..." The originally noisy place was instantly silenced by Empress Feng’s remark.

It was so outrageous that even passersby felt it was too shameless.

"Heh heh..." Lu Chengyou was so furious he laughed, "You all are lackeys of Wen Yuan. Without proper authority and without uttering fallacies, as the legitimate heir of Shu Mountain, how could I ever submit to your judgment?"

"How can you insult people like that?" Empress Feng’s pupils shrank as she heard this, and a dangerous aura emanated from her.

Lu Chengyou retorted, "Before everyone present, do you dare to act rashly?"

"This is a personal disagreement between you and me. It has nothing to do with Shu Mountain." Empress Feng landed onto the ring as she spoke.

Just as a battle was about to break out, a shout came from the sidelines: "Hold it!"

A figure swiftly landed behind Lu Chengyou. The man was dressed in white, of average height, and appeared to be in his forties. His pupils were pure white, devoid of any black.

The newcomer was none other than Immortal Bailin, an elder of the prestigious Penglai Upper Sect who had come to observe the rites.

"After all, Shu Mountain is an Orthodox Sect with thousands of years of tradition. If there are any disputes over the succession, it surely can’t be settled through violence. What kind of behavior would that be?" Immortal Bailin spoke aloud.

"You’re aware this is Shu Mountain?" Empress Feng glared at him, "Since when is it your turn to bark here?"

"Hmph." Immortal Bailin snorted coldly, not paying her any more mind, and looked up directly at Master Wen Yuan, saluting, "Master, the two generations of Lu family who served as Sect Leaders of Shu Mountain were renowned for their great merit. No one among the Orthodox Cultivators is unaware of this fact. If it’s true, as he said, that he is the rightful heir of Shu Mountain, then we, fellow Cultivators of the Righteous Path, cannot stand by and watch."

Master Wen Yuan’s eyes shifted between Immortal Bailin and Lu Chengyou, seemingly seeing through the situation. He chuckled slightly, "My position as Sect Leader was personally passed down to me by my master. You fellows of the Righteous Path need not concern yourselves with this matter about Shu Mountain’s legitimate line. As for the identity of this nephew of the Lu Family, it remains to be investigated. However, now that the Heavenly Rights Token has returned to Shu Mountain, it cannot be lost again."

"Nonsense!" Lu Chengyou shouted, "You murdered my grandfather and father in Shenxu, then returned to the mountain and falsely claimed that my grandfather had passed the position of Sect Leader to you. But you couldn’t produce the Heavenly Rights Token because it had been passed to my father along with the position of Sect Leader and the announcement had just not been made yet. When you returned to the mountain, you wanted to annihilate our family, but my mother escaped with me from Shu Mountain. All these years, I’ve been longing to come back and take revenge on you and expose your hypocritical face! Wen Yuan, today you must pay for what you owe my family!"

"Wow—"

The moment this statement was declared, the whole crowd was agape.

What sensational revelations.

Originally, I was worried that waiting for news from Sword Sheath Peak would be boring, now there’s actually such an interlude program?!

Master Wen Yuan has been in charge of Shu Mountain for over a hundred and fifty years, without any smudge in his reputation, he is nearly a saint. It’s unexpected that such a scandal would be revealed today, was he positioned in power through despicable means?

Even the disciples of Shu Mountain, who were present, were somewhat shaken for a moment. Although they do not understand what happened that year, the Heavenly Rights Token in this man’s hand can’t be faked.

At this moment, everyone is quietly doubting in their hearts, could it possibly be true what he said?

In fact, everyone knows very well that, while this revelation is astonishing, it is too late if it is true. Master Wen Yuan’s position in Shu Mountain today is not something that a bit of dark history can shake. But people love to watch such dramas, especially when a saint’s image collapses, that will be a topic of discussion for a long time to come.

Lu Chengyou’s tone was decisive, his face red with agitation when he spoke.

The Immortal Bailin behind him showed no expression, seemingly just to let him speak without interruption, regardless of the consequences after the words are spoken, it has nothing to do with his Penglai Upper Sect.

It’s clear to everyone that Lu Chengyou’s appearance today would be impossible if there hadn’t been some communication with the Penglai Upper Sect beforehand. The Immortal Bailin is obviously backing him up here, and it’s not the first time the Penglai Upper Sect has used internal strife to weaken other sects.

But some questions remain, the Penglai Upper Sect is unlikely to take direct action, so what can this Lu Chengyou do to cause harm to Shu Mountain?

Master Wen Yuan’s expression was as unfazed as an ancient well, unaffected, and he said lightly: "If you are indeed Lu Cang’s son, you were still a baby when the Lu family disappeared, and what happened later must have been told to you by others, which may not all be true. If you are pretending, then you are intent on causing chaos in Shu Mountain. I had already related what happened back then to the elders, if there were doubts, how could they have allowed me to succeed as Sect Leader? Someone, seize them, and interrogate them later."

His words dispelled some of the people’s doubts.

Yes, just because Lu Chengyou has the Heavenly Rights Token doesn’t mean everything he says is true. If the matter of Master Wen Yuan wasn’t thoroughly investigated back then, how could the elders of Shu Mountain have allowed him to succeed?

"Do you want to forcibly silence me?" Lu Chengyou shouted, "Wishful thinking!"

With that, he made a hand seal, and suddenly a burst of soaring black light erupted from Tongtian Square!

Fwoosh——

The black light touched the sky, and in a flash, it opened a void gate! A huge head protruding from the gate! It’s like a tiger or a leopard, with saber-like teeth! A horrifying and savage aura flowed out from it, filled with a bloodlust that shocked the people!

"Tao Wu!" People cried out in shock.

This turned out to be the ferocious beast that had disappeared from Evil Charm Mountain a while ago! How could Lu Chengyou summon such a huge beast with a wave of his hand? He must have set a formation on Tongtian Peak in advance!

This is when the power of the Heavenly Rights Token is shown, Lu Chengyou took out his token not to deal with the people inside Shu Mountain, but to deal with those outside Shu Mountain!

If there wasn’t the Heavenly Rights Token, when Tao Wu descended, all the orthodox cultivators in the Nine Heavens and Ten Lands might punish this monstrous beast.

But at the moment, he showed the Heavenly Rights Token before he acted, thus the fight became an internal strife of Shu Mountain. As this is an internal dispute within Shu Mountain, no matter what methods are used, outsiders have no reason to interfere.

Immediately, the cultivators from various Immortal Sects scurried away, like a flock of startled birds.

On the contrary, the disciples of the Shu Mountain unsheathed their swords, preparing to fight!

Even if it is a monstrous beast, so what?

This is the Shu Mountain Sect, where cultivators are as abundant as clouds! Even Empress Feng cannot run wild here, let alone you, a Tao Wu?

Just as the arrival of Tao Wu is causing a brief chaos, there is another shout from the field: "Eternal Yin!"
