Chapter 1746: Chapter 1735: Crisis and Opportunity Coexist
In a mountain range far from Tianyun City.
After Ye Chenfeng and Shui Ziyan left Tianyun City with their group, they didn’t imdiately stop but instead, after entering the mountain range, they found a more secluded spot to rest briefly.
Once assured they were temporarily safe, Ye Chenfeng no longer suppressed the surging blood in his body. With a “puh!” sound, a mouthful of fresh blood was spat out from his mouth.
Back at the Shui family’s front yard, when Ye Chenfeng faced Shui Rongsheng’s Crumbling Mountain Palm with Thunder Kill, he had indeed suffered so internal injuries. After all, Shui Rongsheng possessed the strength of the Initial Stage of the second level of the Nirvana Realm. Although Shui Rongsheng also suffered a setback, it was because Thunder Kill was ford from the power of the Heavenly Thunder, which had a significant advantage in terms of destructive capability.
“Brother Ye, are you alright?” Shui nghan hurriedly supported Ye Chenfeng, looking at him with extre concern.
Everyone present, including Shui Ziyan, turned their gaze to Ye Chenfeng.
The injury on Ye Chenfeng’s right hand had been simply treated. He wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth with the back of his hand and said, “I’m fine, it’s just a minor injury.”
Upon hearing Ye Chenfeng say this, everyone present gradually relaxed. Zhou Wuming, the Sect Master of Tianqing Sect, addressed Ye Chenfeng, “Senior, what should we do next?”
Ye Chenfeng replied, “Join the alliance of the Heavenly Sound Sect, head there right away.”
Zhou Wuming replied with a wry smile, “Senior, the Heavenly Sound Sect’s alliance is extrely strict; not just any sect can join. However, the alliance of the three major sects has no such requirents; they don’t set a threshold because they want smaller sects to be the vanguard.”
Ye Chenfeng waved his hand and said, “The Heavenly Sound Sect’s alliance will agree to let you join. Once you’re there, just tell them I sent you. I have so matters to deal with; head to the Heavenly Sound Sect’s alliance now. As long as you’re careful, you won’t encounter any danger.”
Wang Yaohai, the Sect Master of Cliff Sea Pavilion, said, “Senior, both Zhou Wuming and I must return to each of our sects once. Although so disciples and elders in the sect don’t consider it their ho, there are so elders and disciples who truly regard it as their own; we can’t abandon them.”
Zhou Wuming nodded in agreent, “Indeed, Senior, we plan to let so people leave the sect, bringing only those elders and disciples who truly consider the sect as their ho to join the Heavenly Sound Sect’s alliance.”
Ye Chenfeng slightly frowned and said, “Then I’ll accompany you back!”
Zhou Wuming quickly shook his head, “Senior, there’s no need for you to co with us. The distance between Tianqing Sect and Cliff Sea Pavilion is quite close. After the incident with the Yinming Sect, we prepared an escape route. We are confident we can leave safely.”
Wang Yaohai imdiately said, “Yes, Senior, you don’t need to worry about us. We certainly won’t gamble with our lives. We know you have things to handle, so why don’t we et in Heavenly Sound City instead?”
Heavenly Sound City is the closest city to the Heavenly Sound Sect and is entirely under its control.
Ye Chenfeng could see that Zhou Wuming and Wang Yaohai were sincere and not just being polite, so since they were confident in their safety, Ye Chenfeng didn’t insist. He then looked at Shui Hongfu and Shui Ziyan, and said, “Then you can co with .”
Unexpectedly, Shui nghan imdiately refused, “Brother Ye, we’ll go with Sect Master Zhou and Sect Master Wang. We don’t want to constantly be a burden to you. Your strength has already left us far behind. If we still need your care, I’m afraid that even if we risk our lives, we won’t be able to keep up with you.”
Shui Ziyan agreed with Shui nghan, she said, “Chenfeng, let’s et in Heavenly Sound City. Since Sect Masters Zhou and Wang are confident in their safety, we won’t be in danger following them.”
Shui Hongfu and Shui Yifan exchanged looks, and they both sighed. They understood the thoughts of Shui Ziyan and Shui nghan.
Shui Hongfu said, “Chenfeng, listen to them. We’ll et in Heavenly Sound City, and you must be careful. With the Demonic Path rampant and the Righteous Path scattered, it’s dangerous out there.”
Ye Chenfeng saw that Shui Hongfu, Shui Ziyan, and the others had made up their minds. He had no intention of making Shui Ziyan and Shui nghan his won, knowing he should give these two won the space to grow. He said, “Elder Shui, crisis and opportunity coexist. The opposition between the Demonic Path and the Righteous Path is also an opportunity for , a chance to truly rise. I believe the entire Earth Profound Realm will eventually be under my control.”
Although Shui Hongfu and the others had guessed Ye Chenfeng’s ambition, hearing him say it was still quite moving. However, they couldn’t help but believe Ye Chenfeng could do it, given his rapid increase in strength.
Since they had decided to et in Heavenly Sound City, Ye Chenfeng temporarily parted ways with Shui Ziyan and the others.
The distance from Tianqing Sect and Cliff Sea Pavilion to Tianyun City isn’t far. Zhou Wuming and Wang Yaohai are confident they can retreat safely before the Nine Xuan Sword Sect makes a move on them.
…
Tianyun City.
In the front yard of the Shui family.
Shui Rongsheng’s right palm was only slightly bleeding; he hadn’t suffered any internal injuries. Just now, he couldn’t quite gauge Ye Chenfeng’s strength, and coupled with Ye Chenfeng’s threat using the sect masters of the major sects, he ultimately refrained from making a move.
Shui Rongsheng never expected Shui Hongfu and the others to leave with Ye Chenfeng. This was the most infuriating thing for him, as he couldn’t bear the wrath of the Nine Xuan Sword Sect. Moreover, Ye Chenfeng had to be removed. If left unchecked, eventually, Ye Chenfeng would be the death of him. He didn’t believe Ye Chenfeng was any sort of saint.
Looking at the sect masters surrounding him, Shui Rongsheng said, “I let that boy go, so are you going to accompany to the Nine Xuan Sword Sect now?”
The sect masters around him had no choice but to agree and accompany Shui Rongsheng.
A day later.
Shui Rongsheng and the sect masters successfully arrived at the gates of the Nine Xuan Sword Sect, where an elder of the Nine Xuan Sword Sect led them towards the main hall.
When Shui Rongsheng and his group entered the main hall, the two Supre Elders of the Nine Xuan Sword Sect, Gao Anfu and Gao Chengzhong, sat at the head, their expressions solemn.
Gao Anfu snapped angrily, “Shui Rongsheng, if you can’t give a reasonable explanation, then you’d better not leave here today.”
Though enraged by this threat, Shui Rongsheng recounted the entire incident, putting all the bla on Ye Chenfeng.
The other sect masters also cooperated, as they too didn’t want to face the wrath of the Nine Xuan Sword Sect.
After listening to the explanation, Gao Anfu and Gao Chengzhong’s expressions kept changing. They yearned for a massacre, but they knew the living still had value and the dead were useless, especially in such turbulent tis when they needed the Shui family’s strength. Moreover, it wasn’t Shui Rongsheng who killed Gao Xiangyi and Gao Yun.
Gao Chengzhong said, “Shui Rongsheng, from now on your Shui family will be a vassal of the Nine Xuan Sword Sect. Do you have any objections?”
Shui Rongsheng, angry but not daring to show it, could only agree. He nodded and said, “I have no objections.”
Gao Anfu murmured with anger, “Ye Chenfeng? A twenty-sothing Reincarnation Realm Fourth Heavenly Layer expert? Interesting, very interesting indeed. I take great pleasure in killing such once-in-a-lifeti geniuses.”
Turning, Gao Anfu added, “Tomorrow we’ll first join the alliance of the three major sects. Once we’re truly a part of the alliance, we’ll target Tianqing Sect and Cliff Sea Pavilion first!”
Gao Anfu still harbored concerns. Given Ye Chenfeng’s abilities at such a young age, he feared there might be a mysterious power backing him. If they joined the alliance of the three major sects, he wouldn’t have such worries.
A seasoned old fox like Gao Anfu certainly wouldn’t neglect to weigh the pros and cons of the entire situation!
