"As long as I drain you dry, this medicinal cauldron, I can enhance my aptitude and become a dazzling prodigy. It is a blessing from your previous life to die under a peony tonight..."
<...“Immortal Child, my purpose in coming to find the former sect leader is not to disturb his cultivation. There is a very important matter concerning the rise and fall of the sect, and I have to report it to the former sect leader in person.”
Zhao Ziyi quickly replied.
She knew that Great Sword Peak was a forbidden area of the sect, and ordinary people were absolutely not allowed to set foot there at will.
Normally, only elders and above, important figures who hold significant positions within the sect, are qualified to come and pay their respects to the former sect leader.
However, now that she had come this far, she had no reason to back down easily, and she secretly thought that she had to see the old sect leader no matter what.
The young female Daoist slightly raised her eyes, her expression indifferent, and replied in a cool voice, "Speak whatever you have to say, and I can relay your message to the old sect master."
Upon hearing this, Zhao Ziyi hesitated, secretly calculating in her mind.
She knew that if she wanted to get the old sect leader to pay attention to Xiang Wantang, it would be difficult to achieve her goal by having the young female Taoist relay the message. Only by meeting the old sect leader in person and stating the matter in person could she ensure that the matter would receive the attention it deserved.
"this……"
Zhao Ziyi hesitated, unsure of how to begin.
Seeing her like this, the female Taoist priest's face instantly turned cold, and she said coldly, "Zhao Ziyi, what do you mean by that? Do you think that I am of lowly status and not worthy to relay your message to the old sect leader?"
In fact, this female Taoist nun was usually kind and gentle, and her manners were always very proper.
She was always humble and polite when facing important figures in the sect, and she never put on an arrogant attitude, even in front of outer disciples.
However, she showed no kindness to Zhao Ziyi today.
Although she was young, she knew that Zhao Ziyi was dishonest and had ulterior motives.
Upon seeing this, Zhao Ziyi was startled and quickly waved her hand to explain, "Immortal Child, I had no such intention. It's just that this matter is of great importance, and I really wish to see the old sect leader to report it in person."
She knew very well that she absolutely could not offend the young female Daoist at this moment, otherwise the young female Daoist would definitely not inform the old sect master on her behalf, and then her trip would be completely wasted.
Just then, a sharp figure flew over like lightning; it was the young male Taoist who had been practicing his swordsmanship earlier.
Holding a long sword, with sharp eyebrows and bright eyes, he coldly said to Zhao Ziyi, "If you have something to say, tell us. If not, get lost."
His words made no attempt to conceal his disgust for Zhao Ziyi.
It turned out that during the two months they spent together, the young Taoist had already come to regard Fang Han as a god and admired him greatly.
Zhao Ziyi, however, is Fang Han's enemy. She almost drove Fang Han to the brink of despair and ruined his future.
The male Taoist disciple held Fang Han in high esteem, and naturally harbored deep hatred for Zhao Ziyi.
If Fang Han hadn't warned him not to take her life directly, he would have loved to immediately slay this vicious and self-righteous woman.
Zhao Ziyi was taken aback by the fact that the two young Taoist disciples were so disrespectful to her, and she immediately panicked.
If it were any other disciple in the sect, she might have been able to use her status and methods to intimidate them, but facing these two people from the old sect leader's side, she dared not act rashly at all, knowing that if she offended them, she would probably have no place to stand in this sect anymore.
“Two celestial children, I truly had no intention of offending the old sect master. However, this matter is extremely urgent and of great importance, which is why I had no choice but to come. In that case, I will inform you of this matter and ask that you two be sure to pass it on to the old sect master.”
Zhao Ziyi hesitated for a moment, but finally said helplessly.
She ultimately dared not offend these two young Taoist disciples.
"Just say what you have to say, don't be so long-winded and endless."
The female Taoist priest slightly raised her chin, her gaze cold and aloof as she stared directly at Zhao Ziyi, her tone full of impatience.
Helpless, Zhao Ziyi had no choice but to bite the bullet and respectfully cup her hands, saying, "Two immortal children, I have recently discovered that some people with ill intentions have infiltrated the sect. I am truly worried that these people will be detrimental to the sect, so I have come here to report this. I hope you will investigate thoroughly."
"Oh? Is that so? Tell me, who exactly are these people with ulterior motives?"
The young Taoist appeared puzzled, but he had a general idea in mind. He pretended not to know and wanted to hear how Zhao Ziyi would describe it.
Zhao Ziyi took a deep breath and recounted the events involving Fang Han, Qiao Qianshan, Ma Kun, Ma Rou, and Qiao Yue in detail: "These people were originally nobodys, all considered good-for-nothings. Qiao Qianshan was merely a gatekeeper at the Dragon Abyss Sword Academy, while Fang Han and Ma Kun were once students there, and notoriously useless at that. Fang Han, for example, even dared to cause a ruckus at the Dragon Abyss Sword Academy. But for some reason, with the help of a mysterious person, they suddenly entered the Dragon Abyss Sword Sect. Moreover, their cultivation levels improved dramatically in a short period, and the martial arts they practiced far surpassed those I cultivated. I think they must have stolen the sect's cultivation manuals, and perhaps even some pills to enhance their cultivation. Otherwise, these good-for-nothings couldn't have suddenly become so strong. I'm really worried that someone within the sect is secretly plotting something against it."
Upon hearing this, the young Taoist priest's lips curled up slightly, revealing a barely perceptible sneer. He coldly said, "I already know what you're talking about. However, Fang Han is not a formal disciple of the Dragon Abyss Sword Sect, while Qiao Qianshan, Ma Kun, Ma Rou, and Qiao Yue have officially become disciples of the Dragon Abyss Sword Sect. What martial arts techniques they practice is naturally permitted by the sect. Your unfounded suspicions are clearly just making trouble out of nothing."
