Hearing Xu Zii’s words, Lin Ruhu nodded heavily.
"I have disliked Baili Xiao for a long ti, she has been acting recklessly in the Eastern Continent lately.
She even wants to form the Demon Vanquishing Alliance," Lin Ruhu said angrily.
"Did Empress Hongtian really issue a decree? Is that true?" Xu Zii asked.
Lin Ruhu was silent for a mont, then finally said, "I heard, just heard,
that the Empress indeed issued a decree, but it’s not to capture you, it’s to keep the sect out of this matter."
"What about the Sect Master?" Xu Zii asked.
"I’m not too sure, the Sect Master hasn’t explicitly stated," Lin Ruhu replied.
"My grandfather said that the Sect Master’s thoughts are very profound, and no one can fathom them until the very end."
"After all, his every word influences the future of the True Martial Holy Sect, so he can’t be careless. I understand," Xu Zii said with a smile.
"I never planned on relying on the sect."
"With such a big issue this ti, what exactly are you thinking?" Lin Ruhu asked.
"I didn’t think too much, whoever blocks my path, I will cut down with the sword in my hand."
Xu Zii said with a smile. Explore more stories at Freewebnovel
"Good, then let us brothers unite and turn this continent upside down," Lin Ruhu chuckled.
"Your grandfather wouldn’t want you involved, would he?" Xu Zii said.
"He can’t decide for ," Lin Ruhu muttered.
"Rest here for a few days first, I’ll gather more information from outside for you."
After Lin Ruhu left, Xu Zii’s life quieted down again.
He slept for an entire day, and early the next morning a disciple ca to inform him that Sect Master Xiao was looking for him.
Xu Zii yawned, tidied up his clothing sowhat, and then headed towards the island where Sect Master Xiao resided.
The island was suspended in midair, with lush green waters and mountains, and dense trees.
As Xu Zii walked, he once again ca to the bridge where they had t last ti.
Sect Master Xiao, in a white robe, was more formally dressed than any other ti Xu had seen him.
On his robe, the hem moved automatically without wind. He was by the river, sharpening his sword, stroke by stroke.
"It’s been a while," Sect Master Xiao said with a smile as he looked at Xu Zii.
"It has indeed been quite so ti," Xu Zii nodded slightly.
"May I know why the Sect Master is looking for ?"
"Just catching up," Sect Master Xiao said with a smile.
"And with such a big event happening, don’t act as if everything is normal."
"What does Sect Master Xiao imply?" Xu Zii asked.
"You should understand the sect’s difficulties," Sect Master Xiao was silent for a mont, then finally sighed deeply.
"I understand, everything for the sake of the sect," Xu Zii said with a smile.
"If one day, the sect makes choices that you do not agree with, don’t bla or the sect," Sect Master Xiao continued.
"I also don’t want to escalate the situation further."
"Did Sect Master Xiao call here to ease my heart?" Xu Zii laughed heartily.
"There are so things I should tell you, you might have heard about it," Sect Master Xiao said.
"The decree from the Empress is indeed genuine, and many elders in the sect also agree.
They are adopting a wait-and-see approach."
"Well, if the Sect Master has no other matters, then I will take my leave," Xu Zii waved his hand.
He was too lazy to waste words with Sect Master Xiao, his return to the sect was indeed to seek so peace for a few days.
"My intention is this, if you stay within the sect, the sect will do everything to protect you.
Until you fulfill your destiny.
If you leave the sect, then the sect can only do so much," Sect Master Xiao said.
"You know, there are not a few from the Imperial Rule Immortal Sect involved this ti.
"Consider it carefully for yourself."
"Thank you, Sect Master Xiao," Xu Zii nodded and headed off the island.
Sect Master Xiao indeed had done his duty by allowing him the choice and also providing the Sect Gate a chance to bet on him.
Zimo had walked halfway when he suddenly stopped.
He turned and smiled, "Sect Master Xiao, this True Martial Holy Sect really has remained unchanged for countless years."
His words carried a hint of emotion and seed to imply sothing.
But Sect Master Xiao narrowed his eyes, pondering sothing deeply.
...
It wasn’t long after his return to Goose Southern Peak that Lin Ruhu showed up at his door.
He looked at Zimo, hesitating to speak.
"Just say it, the sky isn’t going to fall," Xu Zii laughed.
"Uncle Xu has resigned from his position as Deputy Sect Master," Lin Ruhu said.
"Oh?" Xu Zii frowned slightly.
"I heard at today’s high-level eting of the Sect Gate, Uncle Xu had a big argunt with several elders," Lin Ruhu said cautiously.
"In the end, he resigned from his position as Deputy Sect Master."
"This behavior of my father," Xu Zii paused, then suddenly realized.
He mused to himself, "It’s the sa personality as in my previous life."
Even though Xu Qingshan had been calm in his presence and hadn’t even ntioned this incident,
When it ca to actions, he didn’t hesitate at all.
"Is there anything else?" Xu Zii looked at Lin Ruhu and asked.
"I’ve already issued a challenge to Baili Xiao, but it seems they don’t care," Lin Ruhu said.
"Also, I’ve heard that the Baili Family is planning to hold a big eting for the Demon Vanquishing Alliance.
The main agenda is the election of the Alliance Hierarch."
"Interesting," Xu Zii smiled.
"These grasshoppers seem to be getting more and more fond of jumping."
"Ruhu, do you know why they’re targeting at this mont?" Xu Zii asked.
"They fear you’re destined to carry out your Destiny," Lin Ruhu replied.
"Yes, they fear that if I am to carry out my Destiny, I would eventually beco invincible, and even if they joined forces, they would only be a mob," Xu Zii laughed.
"But there’s one thing they don’t understand, even without Destiny, I am still undefeatable."
"I believe in you, Brother Zimo," Lin Ruhu nodded emphatically.
"Next ti we go to the Baili Family, make yourself a battle suit, make it stylish," Xu Zii laughed.
"You have to hold up the aura."
"Okay," Lin Ruhu nodded emphatically.
Then he left without disturbing Xu Zii’s rest.
Ti quickly moved to five days later.
Xu Zii rose from his reclining chair and stretched.
He patted his purple robe and remarked, "It’s ti to change this cloth."
Leaving Goose Southern Peak, he headed straight to the Treasure Pavilion.
This was where True Martial Holy Sect collected unique and precious treasures; although it couldn’t compare with the Heavenly Dao Academy’s Myriad Treasures Pavilion, it was still absolutely a Forbidden Land.
Since Xu Zii was the Saint Heir, he naturally had the right to enter.
"The Saint Heir may take one item per year," the elder in charge of the Treasure Pavilion said flatly to Xu Zii.
"Help look for the Heaven Shadow Stone, I rember the Sect Gate should have this thing," Xu Zii said.
He sat on a nearby chair and waited while the elder searched the Treasure Pavilion for about three minutes.
Finally, he placed a box in front of Xu Zii.
"This ca from a cave dwelling of an ancient strong being."
