After hearing what Xiao Moshan said, Xiao Kuangyun dared not show off. His expression quickly subsided, and he looked up and said, "It turns out to be Fairy Chu of Bingyun Palace. I am Xiao Kuangyun of the Xiao Sect. I feel very lucky to meet you here. But why did Fairy Chu condescend to come to this small town of Liuyun today? Is there something important? My father said that if you meet a fairy from Bingyun Palace, you must treat her with courtesy. If there is anything I can help you with, Fairy Chu, please feel free to speak up."
Hearing the words "Ice Cloud Immortal Palace" from Xiao Kuangyun's mouth, everyone's eyes were suddenly wide open, and a uniform "gulp" sound came out of their throats.
Which immortal favored this small Floating Cloud City today? Usually, even a third-rate sect would disdain this place, but today, not only did the Xiao Sect come, but even the people from the Frozen Cloud Immortal Palace came!
No wonder this woman has such an extraordinary temperament, a stunning appearance, and can even cross the void. It turns out that she is from Bingyun Immortal Palace, and her status in Bingyun Immortal Palace is definitely not low! Otherwise, Xiao Kuangyun, as the son of the Xiao Sect's patriarch, would not be so cautious and polite to her.
"Why am I here?" Chu Yueli said with a cold brow: "You Xiao Sect have bullied my disciple, should I just watch her quietly and let you bully her?"
“Your disciple?” Xiao Kuangyun was stunned, then his face changed and he asked in shock: “Fairy Chu, the disciple you are talking about… could it be… Xia Qingyue?”
At this time, Xia Qingyue also walked under Chu Yueli and called out respectfully, "Master."
These two simple words made Xiao Kuangyun's face twitch violently, Xiao Yulong was completely stunned, everyone in the Xiao Clan, and all the dignitaries in Liuyun City were dumbfounded, their hearts almost stopped in shock.
Oh my god! This daughter of the Xia family is actually a disciple of the Frozen Cloud Immortal Palace! There has always been a disciple of the Frozen Cloud Immortal Palace in this Floating Cloud City! !
The faces of the people looking at Xia Qingyue suddenly changed, becoming extremely shocked and awed. Even the gazes they looked at Xia Hongyi suddenly changed.
Xiao Yulong was stunned for a long time, and then suddenly broke out in a cold sweat. This Xia Qingyue was actually a disciple of Frozen Cloud Immortal Palace... He had actually tried to tease her before, and was beaten up by her at that time. He was still angry in his heart, but now thinking about it, he was able to return alive and it was simply a waste of his life! Flirting with a disciple of Frozen Cloud Immortal Palace... How many people in the entire Blue Wind Empire have such courage?
That was fine, but forcing Xiao Che and Xia Qingyue to separate today was also the strategy he proposed to Xiao Kuangyun. He even planned for Xiao Kuangyun how to get Xia Qingyue after forcing Xiao Che away... If Frozen Cloud Immortal Palace knew about this, he would be dead without a burial place.
Breaking out in a cold sweat, Xiao Yulong looked towards Xiao Kuangyun with a pleading look on his face.
“So… So Xia Qingyue is actually a disciple of your palace. This… I had no idea before, so I had some misunderstandings.”
If it was a disciple from another sect, Xiao Kuangyun would definitely not take it to heart. But Bingyun Immortal Palace is different! Bingyun Immortal Palace is not a family inheritance sect. Their disciples are all women, and they are all selected from all over the Cangfeng Continent. Therefore, in terms of scale, it is the smallest of the four major sects, but even so, it can still be ranked second among the four major sects, and its strength level can be seen. Every disciple in the palace has extremely high qualifications, and there is no mediocrity. Every one of them is fully protected by the Immortal Palace. Provoking lower-level disciples from other sects may be just a small matter, and even disciples from different sects fighting to the death is a common thing, but provoking Bingyun Immortal Palace... Even if it is the lowest-level woman in the palace, the Immortal Palace will be tough, and will not give up until a satisfactory answer is given!
"Misunderstanding? It better be a misunderstanding. Are you going to tear up the marriage certificate of my disciples?" Chu Yueli looked indifferent, and no one dared to look at her. Although she was just a woman, all the men present felt that she was like a fairy in the Moon Palace. They were just ordinary people, and they were ashamed of themselves and dared not even look at her.
“Since it’s a misunderstanding, how dare I?” Xiao Kuangyun said calmly, “It’s just that there is one thing I don’t understand… Although I don’t know much, I also know that the fairies of Frozen Cloud Immortal Palace are all abstinent from love and sex, and never get married. Why is this Xia Qingyue…”
"Hmph! The Frozen Cloud Art of my palace does require abstinence from love and sex, but it has never banned disciples from marriage. Qingyue joined my palace at the age of twelve, but she was unwilling to follow me back to the palace, just to marry Xiao Che at the age of sixteen, but not for love, but for favor and promise. With such a strong sense of trust and loyalty, and a pure heart, my palace will naturally not stop it. Even if my palace does ban marriage, we can make an exception. Master Xiao, do you have any questions?" Chu Yueli said coldly. Her voice was calm, but every word was like ice, and people who heard it felt a faint chill in their hearts, and did not dare to have the slightest thought of refuting.
“No, no, this is really just a misunderstanding.” Xiao Kuangyun said hurriedly, and then he had to turn to Xia Qingyue and said, “Fairy Xia, I didn’t know you were a disciple of Frozen Cloud Immortal Palace just now. I’m sorry for being so rude. Please don’t take it to heart.”
The status of the son of the Xiao Sect's leader was naturally much higher than that of an ordinary disciple of the Ice Cloud Immortal Palace, but because Chu Yueli was here, he had to be more obedient. Because this was a remote place that was not noticed by people, and he only brought Xiao Moshan, Xiao Ba and Xiao Jiu with him. If Chu Yueli was unhappy, she would kill them all on their way back and destroy all traces, and they would die in vain.
Before coming here, how could he have imagined that a person of Chu Yueli's level would appear in this shabby place.
It was impossible for him to get his hands on Xia Qingyue. He had wasted most of the day's efforts. He had to behave himself in front of Chu Yueli, which made him feel aggrieved. His chest rose and fell, and then his eyes turned to Xiao Lingxi... Although Xia Qingyue was no longer possible, there was at least one! Chu Yueli would protect Xia Qingyue, but she would never protect an outsider like Xiao Lingxi! Otherwise, she would not have not appeared when Xiao Che was expelled, but appeared just when her eyes shifted to Xia Qingyue.
Indeed, for Chu Yueli, she would only care about Xia Qingyue. What happened to other people had nothing to do with her. She had no reason, and no obligation, to interfere.
“It is a great honor for your Xiao Sect to have the presence of Fairy Chu! Then, it is time to start our business today.” Xiao Kuangyun’s face turned serious and his eyes were directed at Xiao Lingxi: “Before that… Xiao Ba and Xiao Jiu! First, arrest the thief who stole the Tongxuan Powder! Bring him back to the Xiao Sect tomorrow for punishment!”
The words "bring him back to Xiao Sect tomorrow for punishment" made even the dumbest person understand why Xiao Kuangyun staged such a despicable and shameless frame-up. Although this frame-up had been exposed by Xiao Che in front of everyone, the absolute suppression of the sect did not stop Xiao Kuangyun from continuing.
"Yes, young master!"
Xiao Ba and Xiao Jiu stepped down from the stage at the same time, heading straight for the flustered Xiao Lingxi.
“Master!” Upon seeing this, Xia Qingyue quickly signaled Chu Yueli with her eyes, hoping that she would appear to protect Xiao Lingxi… or at least prevent her from being taken away by Xiao Kuangyun. But Chu Yueli seemed to be unaware and did not react at all.
Xia Qingyue's expression showed a hint of anxiety. She pleaded, "Master, you should have seen that Xiao Kuangyun was targeting me today. Xiao Che was implicated because of me and was expelled from the Xiao Clan. Before he left, he asked me to protect his grandfather and aunt, and I agreed... This is the last thing I will do for him. After this, I will immediately follow Master back to Frozen Cloud Immortal Palace and stay there to practice my profound cultivation... Please grant me your wish, Master!"
Chu Yueli's eyes flickered slightly, she sighed softly, raised her right hand, and waved it gently.
Suddenly, a chill came from the sky, making Xiao Ba and Xiao Jiu feel suddenly cold all over. They stopped in their tracks and dared not move forward anymore.
Xiao Kuangyun's expression suddenly changed slightly, he calmed down and said: "Fairy Chu, what do you mean? Fairy Chu just accused my Xiao Sect of not interfering in the marriage of your disciples... But now we are dealing with the affairs of our Sect, is Fairy Chu going to interfere?"
“No! I have no interest in interfering in your Xiao Sect’s affairs.” Chu Yueli’s expression was calm and her eyes were calm. “I just don’t like some things, so I just acted according to my heart. Since you said this is your Xiao Sect’s business, then is Xiao Lingxi a member of your Xiao Sect?”
Xiao Kuangyun shook his head: "No! But what she stole was my sect's Tongxuan Powder!"
"But according to what I heard before, this Tongxuan Powder was a gift you brought from the Xiao Sect, and it was given to the Xiao Clan yesterday. How come the things that your Xiao Sect gave away still belong to your Xiao Sect? Aren't you afraid of being ridiculed if this matter gets out?" Chu Yueli said bluntly.
Xiao Kuangyun's eyes suddenly widened and he was speechless.
“Xiao Lingxi is from the Xiao Clan, not your Xiao Sect. This Tongxuan Powder also belongs to the Xiao Clan, not your Xiao Sect. So, even if Xiao Lingxi stole the Tongxuan Powder, it should be the Xiao Clan that punishes him, and it has nothing to do with your Xiao Sect.”
Chu Yueli looked at Xiao Yunhai with a sidelong glance. Just a glance made Xiao Yunhai shudder all over, and his whole body subconsciously shrank half a meter. Chu Yueli said calmly: "Master Xiao, should the people in your sect be punished for stealing like this?"
Xiao Yunhai glanced at Xiao Kuangyun, gritted his teeth, and pretended to be calm, saying: "If a disciple of our sect commits theft... the lightest punishment is confining him to the back mountain for three months... Xiao Lingxi stole the valuable treasure sent by the Xiao Sect, so he should be punished with the heaviest punishment... He must be confined to the back mountain for fifteen years, and within fifteen years, he is not allowed to step out of the Siguo Gorge in the back mountain!"
Chu Yueli looked away and said nothing more.
“Then why are you still standing there? Why don’t you lock her up in that Siguo Gorge!” Xiao Kuangyun shouted with a sullen face! Although he felt unwilling and aggrieved, no matter how dumb he was, he should have known that Chu Yueli had given him a lot of face. Otherwise, she could have directly exposed that this was his frame-up, making him unable to do anything to Xiao Lingxi and making him lose face in public.
Although Chu Yueli did not expose Xiao Kuangyun in public and did not redeem Xiao Lingxi's innocence, Xiao Lie still bowed deeply to her, his heart full of gratitude. The Seven Ice Cloud Immortals, such noble figures, did this for a little girl from the Xiao Clan, which was a great kindness... At least, she saved Xiao Lingxi from the nightmare of being taken back to Xiao Kuangyun and the Xiao Clan.
"I failed to teach my daughter well and deceived the Xiao family for more than ten years. I should be severely punished as well. Lock me up in the Siguo Gorge as well." Looking at the fourth elder Xiao Cheng who was walking over, Xiao Lie said calmly.
With Chu Yueli by his side, Xiao Cheng dared not act rashly or say a word. He led Xiao Lie and Xiao Lingxi towards the back mountain in a very proper manner.
Although in the end, they still ended up with a tragic ending of being locked up for fifteen years, Xia Qingyue knew that Chu Yueli had basically reached her limit. Xiao Lie took the initiative to ask to be locked up in Siguo Gorge together, obviously wanting to accompany Xiao Lingxi and protect her. Perhaps there was no need to worry too much about safety. As for the future, it would depend on their own fate.
“In that case, there is no need for us to stay here.” After Xiao Lingxi and Xiao Lie were taken away, Chu Yueli said calmly, “Master Xiao, I will stay nearby until you leave Liuyun City...Qingyue, let’s go.”
Chu Yueli's last few words made Xiao Kuangyun secretly grit his teeth... "I will be nearby until you leave Liuyun City." Her words were obviously a warning to him not to go after Xiao Lingxi! Although she only protected Xiao Lingxi's safety, since she wanted to protect her, she would definitely do it to the end.
After Chu Yueli took Xia Qingyue away, Xiao Kuangyun punched the chair handle hard, shaking the entire armchair into pieces. He thought he would get two stunning beauties, but he didn't expect that after all his efforts, he would end up with nothing. The result was just forcing an insignificant little person away and imprisoning two people in the Xiao Clan's Siguo Gorge. It was completely different from what he wanted!
And he didn't realize at this moment that not only did he gain nothing, but he also planted a catastrophic disaster for himself and the entire Xiao Sect!
