Chapter 587: Chapter 573: Slinging Mud
The majestic Taiyi Palace was open wide today, bustling with traffic and continuous flow of visitors. Wherever the eye could see, there were Sect Forces from Central State whose nas are well-known; today, disciples from the three main sub-halls were welcoming guests at the gate.
“Haha, Brother Wang, it’s been five years, yet you still look as dashing as ever. By the looks of it, you must have broken through to the Emperor Martial Realm, right?”
“Not at all, I think Brother Zhuo is the one truly outstanding. My modest cultivation is just a joke in front of you.”
“Look, isn’t that the Young Master of the Wufeng Sect?”
“What’s the Wufeng Sect? It’s just a sect force belonging to one domain among the eighteen domains of Central State. Didn’t you just see the birthday delegation from Luofu Mountain? They were personally welcod inside by an Elder of the Heavenly Hall from the Taiyi Palace.”
“Alas, until now, people from the Four Great Emperor Domains haven’t arrived yet. I ca to the Taiyi Palace just for the thrill of seeing the contemporary Emperor’s Sons from the Four Great Emperor Domains!”
…
Xiao Ye, within the crowd, appeared inconspicuous, occasionally hearing various exclamations and pleasantries; after a while, he finally made his way to the gate.
“Hm? Which sect’s disciple are you?” At this mont, a disciple from the Earth Hall, who was receiving guests, saw Xiao Ye approaching and asked casually.
Before Xiao Ye could even reply, his interrogator’s eyes fell on his disciple attire, and his expression turned icy: “Young brother, what’s your na? Haven’t you seen us seniors busy to our ends? Not only have you not co over to help, but you are also wandering around everywhere.”
Xiao Ye was dressed in the attire of an Earth Hall disciple, looking unfamiliar, naturally making the other assu Xiao Ye was just a disciple with low strength and little presence in Earth Hall, hence addressing him as a junior brother.
Upon hearing this, Xiao Ye slightly furrowed his brows. Although the other’s tone was not very friendly, he still responded calmly, “Brother, I am Xiao Ye, a disciple of the Earth Hall. I haven’t been here long, was sent out on a mission soon after joining, and have only returned today.”
As he spoke, Xiao Ye took out his identity token from his space ring.
“Xiao Ye!” Unexpectedly, upon hearing this na, the disciple’s eyes bulged round as if seeing a ghost, staring at Xiao Ye.
“So it is you, Xiao Ye, you are actually not dead yet!”
His voice rose, imdiately drawing the attention of disciples from the other three main sub-halls nearby. Their looks towards Xiao Ye were filled with baffling astonishnt.
Seeing this, Xiao Ye was montarily stunned, his face full of confusion.
Before leaving the Holy Palace, although he did gain so reputation from a few matters, it wasn’t significant enough to surprise the disciples of the Heavenly Hall like this.
“Could it be Wu Pojun’s doing!” A thought suddenly flashed in Xiao Ye’s mind, and his expression turned dark.
If Wu Pojun hadn’t died in Chaoyang Valley and returned to the Taiyi Palace, he would certainly need to find a suitable excuse to explain his whereabouts to the elders; and it seed, from the current situation, that this excuse was quite unfavorable to him.
Indeed, he then heard the cold voice of the previously speaking Earth Hall disciple: “Xiao Ye, you went out on a mission with our Earth Hall disciples while harboring malicious intentions, and now you have the nerve to co back; just wait to accept the elders’ punishnt.”
At his words, a group of Earth Hall disciples dressed in unified purple-black robes abruptly erged, their expressions stern and their chilly aura discouraging anyone from approaching.
“The Law Enforcent Team!” Fury blazed in Xiao Ye’s eyes upon seeing this.
The Earth Hall, ranked second among the four main sub-halls, houses the Law Enforcent Team composed of older disciples with poor talent. Each mber’s cultivation reached King Martial Level 2, helping the ten Law Enforcent Elders manage the Earth Hall.
Perhaps it can be said that the Law Enforcent Team represents the will of the Ten Law Enforcent Elders and very few dare to provoke it in the Earth Hall.
“That damned Wu Pojun, it must be his trickery; I wonder what he told the Law Enforcent Elder to even deploy the Law Enforcent Team!” Xiao Ye clenched his fists, watching the Law Enforcent Team walk up to him. He took a deep breath, suppressing the anger in his heart.
His current cultivation compared to when he left the Taiyi Palace was vastly different; dealing with these Law Enforcent Team disciples would naturally be extrely easy.
But should he make a move, wouldn’t that escalate the conflict? That’s not what Xiao Ye wanted to see.
“No need for you to act, I can walk by myself. I will voluntarily explain this matter clearly to the elders!” Watching the Law Enforcent Team disciples, as they were about to escort him into the Taiyi Palace, Xiao Ye couldn’t help but snort coldly, then stepped towards the gate, his figure radiating firmness and resilience.
This disturbance was utterly trivial compared to the gathering for the celebration; soon, everyone’s attention was drawn by the arriving powerful sect forces.
“This kid actually ca back, this won’t do, I must notify Wu Pojun quickly and let him tell Brother Lin Feng!” However, Xiao Ye didn’t notice the cold smirk erging on the face of the disciple who had earlier questioned him; after instructing the disciple beside him, he hurriedly made his way into the space where Taiyi Palace was located.
anwhile, Xiao Ye was escorted by twenty Law Enforcent Disciples through the Taiyi Palace space.
Today, the Taiyi Palace was filled with jubilation, everything ticulously arranged, even the disciples walking on the paths hurriedly. Occasionally soone would glance at Xiao Ye, revealing a peculiar look, then promptly avert their gaze.
With all the various forces from Central State arriving, naturally, they had no ti to regard Xiao Ye.
“Hmph, Xiao Ye, you violated the palace rules and should be severely punished. Reflect behind closed doors here first and wait for the elders to judge you,” Declared the twenty Law Enforcent Disciples, escorting Xiao Ye into an unoccupied loft in a small space of the Earth Hall, exiting afterward and leaving two to guard the door.
“Elders coming to judge ?” Xiao Ye could no longer suppress his anger.
He had been sent out on a mission by Lin Feng, constantly troubled by Wu Pojun along the way. If not for his luck and Little White’s extraordinary talent, he would have died right there. Now, having finally returned to the Taiyi Palace, he was receiving such treatnt?
Truly, it’s the wicked who complains first, muddling right and wrong!
“I want to see what ridiculous reasons Wu Pojun will co up with to fra !” Xiao Ye settled down in the loft, cultivating while waiting for the arrival of the Law Enforcent Elders.
With the high esteem the ten Law Enforcent Elders held him in, they absolutely wouldn’t let Wu Pojun slander him like this.
