I’m Lin Yun—born with incredible talent. I thought I’d be trained as a core disciple… but then—
“The demonic sect would never expect us to send someone this gifted as a spy. Once ...
Chapter 141: Inside the Changhong Palace (Second Update)
The main hall of the Sword Sect is also known as the Changhong Hall. The first leader of the Sword Sect was named Changhong Sword Saint. His sword light was like a long rainbow, and he was the most powerful of his time. In order to commemorate their ancestor, later generations built the Changhong Hall.
When he saw the plaque of Changhong Hall, the BGM engraved in Lin Yun’s DNA began to sound.
"Men have..."
Stop, turn off the speakers, this is not the time to play music.
Following Hu Yuling into the hall, Lin Yun was surrounded by many bigwigs, but he was not at all nervous.
After all, in just a few months, he had already defeated the Demon Lord, burned the Demon Dragon, ridden the Demon King, and deceived the Saint. He had done these things so many times that being watched by the bigwigs of the Sword Sect was nothing.
It was Hu Yuling who came in and bowed to Baili Liuyun who was sitting in the center, and said, "Greetings, Your Excellency."
Some venerables rely on their strength, some rely on their status, and some have both strength and status, such as the three great demon lords.
Although the Sword Sect's leader's cultivation level is a little lower, he is still the leader of a sect and is qualified to be called a Venerable. Of course, others only call him a Venerable and not the Sword Venerable.
Because in the way of kendo, he is not yet worthy of being called a master.
Although Hu Yuling's cultivation is higher than Baili Liuyun, she is only an elder of the Shenxiao Sect. The Jian Sect is also one of the seven sects. It is like the second-in-command of a developed area going to an underdeveloped area to visit the top leader of that area. Her status is lower.
But Baili Liuyun did not dare to be arrogant. After Hu Yuling bowed, he quickly said, "Elder Hu, there is no need to be polite. Please take a seat."
The maid immediately pushed over two chairs, which were for Hu Yuling and Zhao Lingyu.
Lin Yun could only stand behind Hu Yuling.
In the main hall, only the elders of the Sword Sect are qualified to sit.
Ming Xin was also among them. When he saw Lin Yu, he waved and said, "Yu'er."
Lin Yu understood and walked to stand behind him.
Many elders of the Sword Sect, including the Sect Master Baili Liuyun and Baili Liuyun's wife Mu Yunyan, all looked at Lin Yu several times.
Everyone has complicated feelings towards the Sword Sect's most special disciple.
However, no one present said much.
Today's distinguished guest is Hu Yuling.
Lin Yun stood behind Hu Yuling. From this angle, he could still see her curves. He couldn't help but sigh in his heart that Ziyun Mountain was really a great place to keep fit.
It would be nice if Dongfang Hongyue could stay there for a while.
"Elder Hu, I still remember the last time we met, it was fifty years ago. Now you are even more charming than before, I envy you so much."
After everyone returned to their seats, the Sect Master's wife Mu Yunyan started to greet Hu Yuling. As a woman, it was only appropriate for her to praise Hu Yuling and liven up the atmosphere.
If other male elders praised Hu Yuling, it would seem reckless.
Hu Yuling and Mu Yunyan did not have much friendship. The so-called farewell fifty years ago was nothing more than an exchange between the different sects and a chance encounter.
"Madam, you are joking. I haven't made much progress in my cultivation over the past few decades. The path to peeping into life is still too difficult."
Mu Yunyan: "..."
There's no way to respond to this.
Because Baili Liuyun, who has the highest level of cultivation in the Sword Sect, has not yet been able to glimpse the path of destiny, that is, to reach the realm of knowing destiny.
Now Hu Yuling says that she has not made much progress in the realm of knowing destiny. It seems humble, but it is actually a slap in the face.
Lin Yun wanted to laugh when he heard this, and his favorable impression of Hu Yuling increased significantly.
To be honest, Hu Yuling didn't expect that she was trying to improve Lin Yun's favorability. She just thought it was quite fun.
It was especially interesting to see Baili Liuyun, who was very angry but didn't dare to do anything to her.
Baili Liuyun could only smile awkwardly and said, "Elder Hu is really modest."
After he finished speaking, as if he was afraid that Hu Yuling would say something to attack him again, Baili Liuyun hurriedly asked, "I wonder why Elder Hu has come all the way here today?"
Are you getting down to business so soon?
Won't you chat for a while?
Lin Yun wanted to watch the game again, but Baili Liuyun asked, so Hu Yuling didn't hesitate and said bluntly: "I came here today because of Lin Yun."
Everyone's eyes turned to Lin Yun.
Hu Yuling remembered what Fang Yu had told her before she left.
On this trip, you must not cause trouble. If you do cause trouble, you must protect Lin Yun.
With Hu Yuling's cultivation level, it would be no problem for her to sweep across the Sword Sect alone and leave with Lin Yun calmly.
The worst case scenario is nothing more than a fight, but if there is no fight or conflict, that would be even better.
Fang Yu also knew that this was a turbulent time. The Taiqing Taoist Temple had issued a warning of a fatal disaster. Fang Yu herself was also at the level of knowing destiny, so she also had a vague feeling about it.
Her fate star was flickering, giving her a warning, but she couldn't see her specific future. Good and bad fortune were unpredictable, so it was best not to get into trouble.
But now that Hu Yuling is here, how could she not cause trouble?
"You should have heard that some time ago, Lin Yun seized one of the Moon Goddess's relics from the Moon Goddess's ruins."
Speaking of this, some elders who were unaware of the situation couldn't help but show expressions of shock.
They had heard that a young man had stolen the treasure and gave it to the Demon Cult, but they didn't expect it to be the young man in front of them.
Hu Yuling went on to say, "At that time, the Demon Lord of the Green Lotus Sect wanted to force Lin Yun to be his disciple, but Lin Yun refused. Our Sect Master liked his talent and ambition, so he accepted him as his disciple. At that time, under pressure from the Demon Sect, Lin Yun had no choice but to become the Sect Master's disciple. Later, we learned that Lin Yun was actually a disciple of your sect, but he had been lurking in the Demon Sect. He was exposed this time and escaped back."
When Hu Yuling said this, Baili Liuyun was stunned.
He was actually at the scene that day, and he saw everything Hu Yuling said, but...
He really didn't expect that Lin Yun was his own disciple.
Liu Ji is the master of swordsmanship. In the world today, Liu Ji directly admits that he is the best in swordsmanship, and no one dares to refute him.
Those who refute it would worry that Liu Ji would come to them for a fight, which would be too terrifying.
Even a person who has reached the pinnacle of swordsmanship wants to accept Lin Yun as his disciple, which shows how extraordinary Lin Yun's qualifications are.
Baili Liuyun was also tempted that day. If he could defeat Liu Ji, he would have wanted to snatch this disciple.
Only today did he discover that Lin Yun was actually his disciple.
Is there such a good thing?
But after the joy, he was confused again.
Since Lin Yun is his own disciple, why did he become an undercover agent of the Demon Cult?
If we don't train such an excellent talent well and send him to the evil cult, what if he is corrupted by the cult?
The evil witch of the cult is very powerful!
Some elders also looked at each other, only Mingxi looked uncomfortable.
No one expected that Lin Yun would make a strong comeback in this way.
There is also a top foreign aid, which means we are in trouble!
Mu Yunyan was the first to react. She quickly stood up and said to Hu Yuling, "I didn't expect so many twists and turns to happen. Thank you for helping my disciples and sending Lin Yun back. Liuyun and I will definitely come to thank you in the future."
Baili Liuyun looked at his wife with satisfaction. Well said!
Now is not the time to discuss why Lin Yun went undercover; the most important thing is to resolve the issue.
Hu Yuling found it funny when she heard this.
What the hell are you thinking about? How can the disciples who have been sent out come back?
