Chapter 122: The Battle Between the Sect Masters
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
Originally, Ye Xuan didn’t want to disturb Mo Jianming, but he was surrounded by people from the seven great sects and couldn’t detect any movements. Mo Jianming was the grand elder of the Sword Sect and had an extraordinary status, so he might know something.
A sharp glint flashed across Mo Jianming’s eyes when he heard the purpose of his visit.
“This information is strictly confidential. How did you know?”
After all, Ye Xuan wasn’t a member of the seven great sects, and his strength and cultivation were clear for all to see. It was no wonder that Mo Jianming would find it strange.
Ye Xuan naturally couldn’t say that he was there that night and saw everything, so he gave the story he had prepared.
!!
“I was cultivating nearby that night, so I could roughly see the location. I left after sensing a powerful aura.”
Mo Jianming laughed icily and his expression filled with coldness. He said, “The Misty Illusory Manor and the Dao Seeking Sect are really shameless. Just because Sword Sect wasn’t there at that time, they took all the things inside for themselves.”
It turned out that on that day, the Sword Sect and the rest had been held back by other matters, and Mo Jianming had not been present.
By the time he received the news and rushed there, the people from the other sects had already surrounded him. They did not let Sword Sect get close easily, saying that they had discovered it first.
On the surface, it sounded nice, but in reality, they were ostracizing Sword Sect. Who asked Mo Jianming not to be present then? Now that he was there, the group of people from the Dao Seeking Sect actually said that the matter had been resolved and there was no need for them to do anything.
No matter how powerful the Sword Sect was or how high Mo Jianming’s cultivation was, he couldn’t fight with them. He could only suppress his anger.
The Sword Sect was also a sect with a backbone. Since the other sects had done this, they did not bother to stay and left angrily.
“That’s why I can’t help you even if I wanted to.”
Hearing this, Ye Xuan was stunned. He said, “So even you don’t know what it is, Senior.”
If Mo Jianming had been there that night, he might have been able to keep the black Qi.
Ye Xuan had wanted to say it clearly, but if he did, Mo Jianming would know that he was also there. After a moment of hesitation, he still felt that it was a little inappropriate to mention it.
Seeing that Ye Xuan was so concerned about this matter, Mo Jianming said, “I can’t be bothered to look at their ugly faces. I don’t want to pretend to be polite, nor do I want to deal with that mess. But since you are so concerned about it, I might as well help you find out.”
He thought of Mo Jianming’s identity and status. If Mo Jianming had the intention to find out, he would receive more information than Ye Xuan would.
“In that case, I will have to thank you, Senior.”
“It’s nothing, not worth mentioning.”
After bidding farewell to Mo Jianming, Ye Xuan focused on his cultivation. He had to improve his strength as soon as possible. Ever since he watched the battle between the seven great sects and that ball of black Qi, he had gained more insights and an urgent sense of danger.
Whether it was the seven great sects or that black Qi of unknown origin, if they knew that there were other small pieces in his hands, they would definitely not let him go so easily.
“These people probably didn’t expect that there would be a fragment left outside.”
“I have quite a lot of things on me. If I take out any of them, I’m afraid all the seven great sects will come after hearing about it.”
The Penglai Immortal Stone, the broken parts of the Hetu and Luoshu Diagram, and now there was a fragment that even the system couldn’t detect.
No matter which one it was, Ye Xuan had yet to figure out the way to it.
Ye Xuan was not idle, and the other sects did not relax either. Although the competition was postponed, the next battle would be between the elders. The sects that had lost earlier were all rubbing their fists, planning to perform well.
A new rule also appeared in the eyes of the crowd. The battle between elders could not rely on external objects too much, or the result would be canceled according to the situation.
Although this sentence was said tactfully, there was no explicit rule that forbade the use of formations, talismans, and so on. Anyone with a discerning eye knew who it was directed at.
After all, in the last round of the disciples’ competition, the Tai Qing Sect had used the supreme-grade Five Elements Pearls to fight their way out of the encirclement and actually won first place, which was beyond everyone’s expectations.
Although they were first, no one was truly convinced, especially those sects that were initially strong and had the highest chance of getting a good ranking. However, they were forcibly suppressed by an unknown small sect.
“Who doesn’t know how the Tai Qing Sect got first place?”
“We can’t let them take advantage of us again. We must beat them back to their original state and vent our anger!”
“This is going to be a good show. All of us can’t rely too much on external objects. The Tai Qing Sect will definitely be eliminated.”
“The overall strength of the Tai Qing Sect is on the low side. Those few elders are nothing to be afraid of. Among them, there is even a human rank level 3. I don’t know how someone with such strength became an elder.”
The Tai Qing Sect naturally also received this news. Whether it was the disciples or the elders, their expressions became a little ugly.
“They’re too much. They’re obviously targeting us. No, I have to go and have a good talk with them.”
The fifth elder was a hot-tempered person, and his eyes turned red when he heard this. However, he was stopped by the fourth elder who said, “Why would they listen to you?”
It made sense when he thought about it. This was definitely a joint decision of the seven great sects. Even if he went to look for them to talk about this, there was nothing he could do.
“Forget it. A battle between elders isn’t that simple anyway.”
In this way, it seemed that the Tai Qing Sect did not have much chance of winning, especially with Ye Xuan, who had low cultivation.
“If we lose, then so be it. We won first place in the first round, so even if we lose this round, we won’t be eliminated. At most, we still have the sect master battle.”
