"How dare you...!" Venerable Zhichou didn't realize something was wrong and instinctively wanted to rebuke her.
"Insolence!" With a cold wave of his sleeve, Immortal Venerable Xiao Feng sent Venerable Zhi Chou flying like a kite with a broken string.
Several elders in the council hall wanted to get up to help the Venerable Zhi, but found that they could not move at all.
The atmosphere in the council hall became tense, and no one dared to make a move.
Elders like Venerable Zhichou, whose cultivation level was around the Nascent Soul stage, might not be able to tell where the oppressive aura was coming from. They might only think that Yu Shengyan was taking advantage of Immortal Venerable Xiao Feng's influence to commit insubordination.
Their panic stemmed from the attitude of Xiao Feng, whom they regarded as a powerful being in the Tribulation Transcending stage, towards Yu Shengyan.
They were clearly completely infatuated! Whatever Yu Shengyan said, they believed!
They naturally wouldn't want to provoke a powerful cultivator in the Tribulation Transcending stage.
Fairy Nuanyan stroked the little beast in her arms. Known as the most beautiful woman in the Flying Star Sect, she lowered her eyes, a hint of regret in them.
The Red Lotus Fairy looked at the girl with an ambiguous expression, wondering why she seemed different in some way.
In short, we will not move unless the enemy moves.
However, the elders with higher cultivation levels could clearly sense that the aura emanating from the girl was on par with that of Immortal Venerable Xiao Feng, making them even more uneasy.
Although we don't know exactly what happened to the disciple named Yu Shengyan, but...
Even in their Flying Star Sect, there is only one sect master among the Tribulation Transcending stage experts!
Venerable Zhichou had just offended this powerful being in the Tribulation Transcending stage...
I hope he's alright.
Venerable Poyue's eyes widened slightly, as if he had figured something out, and he said, "You... what a powerful opportunity..."
Venerable Canglang knew more information, and when he thought of the ambiguous relationship between the demon emperor in the forbidden area and his junior sister, his expression became somewhat serious.
He looked at Yun Gui, who remained unmoved, and hesitated as if seeking confirmation, "Master, that Demon Emperor is..."
Yun Gui nodded slightly, signaling him to stop talking.
He stood up, floated in front of Qi Yu, and looked her up and down for a while.
“…Not bad, not bad. It seems that now it’s my turn to call you Master.”
Qi Yu: "..."
She raised an eyebrow and said, "If Master is willing, then this disciple will naturally agree."
Yun Gui laughed for a while, then suddenly composed himself and walked to the side of Venerable Zhi Chou.
The little boy was clearly adorable and lovely, but in the eyes of Venerable Zhichou, he seemed like the Black and White Impermanence carrying chains, about to reap his life.
At first, he didn't react, because he had never heard of such an unbelievable thing as a Golden Core cultivator ascending to the Tribulation Transcending stage.
However, now that they have heard the conversation between Sect Master Yun Gui and Yu Shengyan, it would be foolish to pretend not to know.
Although Zhi Chou is opportunistic, he is not stupid!
At that moment, he was frantically thinking about how to salvage the situation.
He used to rely on his status as an elder to put pressure on Yu Shengyan, but now the tables have turned and it is he who is going to suffer!
Once a powerful cultivator in the Tribulation Transcending stage gets angry, no matter how much he fawned over those powerful figures, he couldn't save him.
He endured the pain in his body, knelt on the ground, and said to Qi Yu in a sincere tone, "Yu Shengyan... no, Senior Yu, I was blind and did not recognize your greatness. I have offended you. I really do not know how to appease you."
Qi Yu didn't even raise an eyebrow, and said dismissively, "A scholar should be viewed with new eyes after three days of separation. Venerable Zhi Chou, your vision is still too shallow."
This means there's no way to resolve this amicably.
Look at someone with new eyes... Treat someone with new eyes...
"My eyes are really... really... really shouldn't have been kept!"
Venerable Zhichou gritted his teeth, stretched out two fingers, and stabbed them hard into his eyes.
Instantly, blood gushed from his eyes and trickled down his face.
"Aaaaaah!!!"
Qi Yu's eyes flickered, and she tilted her head as if puzzled, saying, "What is the Venerable One doing? I'm impressed. I didn't say I would really gouge your eyes out."
Venerable Zhichou's eyes were bleeding, and his heart was bleeding too.
Although the eye can be repaired by a medical elder later, the pain is real.
He pinched his thigh hard and squeezed out a sentence through gritted teeth, "Zhi Chou was blind and is willing to accept punishment. Please forgive me, Senior Yu."
Qi Yu looked down at him, then suddenly seemed to feel tired of it, and turned and left without looking back.
The man who had been standing behind her glanced coldly at the elders in the council hall before following her away.
Only after the two figures completely disappeared from sight did the elders breathe a sigh of relief.
"I never imagined that there would be such an extraordinary person who could leap from the Golden Core stage to the Tribulation stage."
"I wonder what kind of opportunity it was..."
"The sect leader's judgment is indeed exceptional; this is truly a peerless genius!"
Holding her sword, the dashing Sword Heart Fairy snorted and said, "I also had my eye on Yu Shengyan, but who knew the sect leader would snatch her away."
During the recruitment ceremony, she took a liking to Yu Shengyan at first sight, but the sect leader intervened, so she had to give in.
Fanglin Fairy, the medical cultivator elder of Xingxing Peak, rolled her eyes and said, "I also submitted my nameplate, but they didn't take a liking to me."
Fairy Honglian covered her mouth and smiled, saying, "There are also Yuge and Poyue, plus the sect leader, making a total of six people who want to take Shengyan as their disciple."
“Well, now it’s our turn to beg Senior Yu to take us as his disciples,” Venerable Fisherman said with a smile.
Venerable Broken Moon remained silent as always.
Qi Yu left without a word. Venerable Zhi Chou, who was blind, didn't realize the aura had gone away for a long time.
He hurriedly cried out, "Fairy Fanglin! Fairy Fanglin! Quickly, please take a look at my eyes!"
He acted decisively when he poked his eye because he knew it could be repaired. Now that the crisis was over, he naturally wanted to find someone to heal his eye without delay.
Fairy Fanglin looked at him with displeasure, leaving him waiting for a long time before reluctantly walking over.
Inside the council hall, everyone was still discussing in shock, and few noticed that Sect Master Yun Gui and Venerable Canglang had left quietly.
Inside the bamboo house.
Qi Yu lay on the bamboo bed, her mind filled with a myriad of thoughts, which she then carefully sorted out and examined.
Feng Xiao stood guard outside the door like a bodyguard, toying with a crimson feather in his hand, lost in thought.
Yun Gui appeared outside the bamboo building, riding his personal mount, Xu Canglang.
He knocked on the door and said, "Can we come in and talk?"
Feng Xiao glanced at them, remaining noncommittal.
But a girl's voice came from inside the room.
"Master, Senior Brother, please come in."
Feng Xiao then gave up his seat.
Xu Canglang carried Yun Gui, who was sitting on his shoulders, into the room.
The girl remained limp on the bed, seemingly devoid of any will to live, and asked, "Is it almost time for the team competition?"
Xu Canglang: "?"
He asked incredulously, "You're already at the Tribulation Transcending stage, and you're still planning to go to the Foundation Establishment and Golden Core stage competition?"
What are you going there for, to blow up the fishpond?
A max-level pro player dominates the beginner matches?
