(No CP - seeing some people still asking about CP, so I'll clarify here: no CP.) Yue Qiran was the Eldest Senior Sister of Minglan Sect, virtually handling all matters big and small within the ...
Chapter 294 Causing Trouble
After hearing this, everyone looked enlightened, but they were still a little hesitant. After all, they had a bad relationship with the Minglan Sect, and they had to give gifts to report their positions. Where would they get the money?
Seeing their hesitant expressions, Yan Wenxuan felt helpless about their stubbornness. So he said something more clear-headed, "Although we generally don't interfere in other sects' affairs, there are still many who break this rule behind the scenes. The Minglan Sect is even more controlling of the sects within its sphere of influence. In my opinion, we don't need to curry favor with the Minglan Sect. It's okay to give perfunctory gifts, but we must be fully polite in public and not let others talk about it. This way, if the Minglan Sect wants to help others, it will also have to consider its reputation. It's unacceptable to accept gifts and then help others. "
The person who said this was Jin Tairan. After he said this bravely, he lowered his head and acted as if he had said nothing.
Yan Wenxuan said, "That's the truth. If you don't have the strength, it's fine. But if you don't have the reason, even if other peaks want to intervene, they can't help."
"When Senior Sister comes over, we'll talk to her."
Yue Qingya said: "She must have thought of this. She hasn't taken any action yet. She must have her own considerations."
Yan Wenxuan sighed and said, "Your senior sister is really brave. She offended the young master of Minglan Sect and still dared to come here. I am really impressed."
Xi Jing whispered, "Actually, that's not the way to say it."
"Isn't your senior sister brave enough?"
"I'm referring to the previous question. Even if the Minglan Sect accepts the gift, they won't necessarily take care of it, right? Haven't a lot of babies disappeared recently?"
Yan Wenxuan was silent for a moment, then gritted his teeth and said, "Don't mention this matter. We've been investigating it so hard that our heads are about to smoke!"
Yue Qingya frowned, asked about the matter again, and then said: "The Minglan Sect doesn't care?"
"Of course I don't care. I sent a few people to investigate, but that's all they can do. Ha, it makes me laugh to death. At least my head can still smoke with anxiety, but they can't even light a fire even if they pour oil on their heads."
Xi Jing and the others suppressed their laughter and said, "Why don't you just ask for help? If you don't send strong people, people will talk about you."
"Tsk, the Minglan Sect won't tell us, saying things like it's been a turbulent time recently and the other sects can't help. They're making excuses and making all sorts of excuses. What can we do? We can only investigate on our own."
Han Yueshan was shocked and said, "Ah, this is quite helpless."
Li Xiu exchanged glances with several of his fellow brothers and sisters, and their thoughts were the same as Tao Zi's before, that it was probably all caused by Minglan Sect.
At this time, Tao Zi came over and said, "Brother Xiu, go and see if that person is still alive."
Li Xiu was stunned for three seconds, then stood up expressionlessly and said, "I knew that when you called me Brother Xiu, it was not a good thing."
Yan Wenxuan was horrified. "Did you really kill him? Fellow Daoist Tao, he's not a very good person, but his tracking ability is quite good. If he were to die, I wouldn't have anyone to help me even if my head burned off."
She looked at Yan Wenxuan blankly, not knowing what this incoherent speech meant.
Xi Jing briefly recounted the incident, and Tao Zi hesitated, "He should be fine. The main thing is that he fell down and stood up again and again. I could only knock him down until he couldn't get up anymore."
"Just can't get up?"
"It seems that the breathing is a little weak."
Yan Wenxuan felt hopeless and said, "Forget it, I'll find someone else to help."
"Is Cheng Yimen too busy to do anything?"
He sighed and said, "Not long ago, three thousand mortals died here, five hundred of whom were listed under our names. They are all investigating this matter. Where can we find the manpower?"
Tao Zi frowned. Cheng Wuchou put down his teacup and said seriously, "Why don't you let other sects come over to take a look?"
"The Minglan Sect won't allow it. It's really a shame to save face."
Tao Zi said calmly: "Three thousand people, do you think other sects don't know?"
Yan Wenxuan fell silent for a moment, his voice lowering considerably: "It's best if you don't know about it. That way, when it's revealed one day, you can come here as a matter of course."
They immediately understood what he meant and became melancholy.
Tao Zi said: "Tell me, why did you come here this time?"
He shrugged and said, "That's pretty straightforward. Actually, there's nothing else to it. We're just short of manpower and want to borrow someone."
Tao Zi asked, "Who?"
"Yue Qingya Yue Zhenjun."
Yue Qingya looked over. Tao Zi knew from his eyes that he wanted to take charge of this matter, so she asked, "What's the reward?"
"Someone's going to cause trouble. I know who they are. I can give you a list of names, or I can stay and help. I can even become friends with you later."
Tao Zi asked in return, "Is it your turn to make the decision once the sect is established?"
Yan Wenxuan spread his hands and said with a smile: "Not really, it's just that the Sect Master also acquiesced."
She keenly sensed something was wrong. Jin Tairan stepped forward and whispered, "Aren't you on good terms with the Minglan Sect's main peak?"
Yan Wenxuan put away his smile and said, "That was in the past. This time, the main peak has been too silent. Instead, the other peaks have been helping. The sect leader naturally has his own ideas."
Cheng Wuchou hit the nail on the head: "In the final analysis, it is the main peak that is weak."
He smiled slightly and said, "Maybe."
Tao Zi asked, "Isn't He Yinggui He Qianyi's junior?"
Yan Wenxuan disagreed and said, "The two people who tried to curry favor with He Qianyi are already dead. As for him, He Qianyi can't give him much benefit now. He will only choose someone better to follow."
Xi Jing sighed, "This person is so realistic."
Cheng Wuchou smiled and said, "Reality is good. I can't become your confidant, but I can use him for a bit."
At this time, Li Xiu's voice came from the other side: "Two physical cultivators come and carry the person!"
Yan Wenxuan was amused and said with a smile: "Oh, you are lucky, there is still hope."
Li Xiu threw He Yinggui into the tub of medicinal bath and muttered, "Tao Zi, you have a really dark hand. You only hit the place that hurts the most."
"I'm saving his life."
While joking, Yan Wenxuan suddenly said, "I have news. Those people will take action tonight."
Tao Zi looked over and he continued, "It's from a sect that we're friendly with on the main peak. The sect leader is in the Out-of-Body Stage. This time, they're sending two Nascent Souls and four Golden Cores."
She said, "It's a huge investment."
Yan Wenxuan said, "That's right. Even though we are on good terms, it still costs a price to persuade them. After this incident, the main peak will be in trouble."
Zhou Qiandan asked in confusion: "Why don't you let your own men come over? That way you don't have to pay the price."
He sneered, "Come on, the main peak has few Yuanying-level subordinates. Besides, it would be shameful to take action on your own. If other sects take action, you can still say that it was their own decision. The main peak might even come out to mediate and gain a good reputation."
That night, the troublemakers really came.
