Chapter 159 Dirty Water



The quarrel came to an abrupt end.

Lin Hai and Wei Lesheng lowered their heads at the same time and were stunned to see Xiang Sheng standing between them, looking up at them.

"My sect should be chosen by me."

Xiang Sheng said it again.

Wei Lesheng's brows furrowed immediately. "Luo Sheng, you are the daughter of my Thousand Star Hall's senior disciple. Thousand Star Hall is your maternal family. In terms of strength, foundation, and connections, isn't it stronger than the Ten Thousand Swords Sect?"

"Then why doesn't mother go back?"

When Xiang Sheng asked the question, Wei Lesheng opened his mouth but was speechless.

He also didn't understand. His junior sister was clearly alive. Even though she had lost all her skills due to the forbidden magic, that place was still her home. Why would she rather suffer alone outside than go home?

"I want to stay in Wanjianmen."

Xiang Sheng continued, his tone firm and unwavering, "Big Brother, and the elders have all treated me very well. I will wait here for Mother to return."

She said this, but in reality, even if Luo Qingyun was here and willing to return to the sect, she would never go to the Thousand Star Palace!

The five major sects are all of the eighth rank, and they must have great cultivators in the out-of-body stage. All of them are old monsters who have practiced for thousands of years. It is a thousand times more difficult to keep a secret in front of them than here.

In comparison, the Wanjian Sect, whose highest combat power is only at the Jindan stage, is more suitable for her to keep a low profile.

Wei Lesheng fell silent for a moment before speaking, "Since you're determined, I won't force you. You're still young, and there are many things you haven't figured out yet. If you change your mind later, you can always go to Thousand Star Palace. It will always be your home, understand?"

Xiang Sheng nodded, not quite understanding.

How could she not understand that Wei Lesheng had this attitude entirely because of his relationship with Luo Qingyun. If her identity was exposed in the future, no one would know whether Qianxing Palace was close or distant to her until then.

Lin Hai watched this and finally smiled and said, "Please rest assured, Master Wei, my little apprentice sister will not suffer any injustice while staying here."

He never mentioned Xiang Sheng's spiritual roots, for fear that Wei Lesheng would change his mind again.

Wei Lesheng glanced at him, said nothing more, turned around and left.

Seeing this, Lin Hai finally let go of the stone in his heart and breathed a sigh of relief.

Xiang Jianjue raised his eyebrows, and his impression of Xiang Sheng changed a lot.

Although the junior sister has the bad habit of being too ambitious, at least she is not an ungrateful person who betrays her master.

After the matter was settled, Lin Hai did not stay for long. After encouraging Xiang Chang for a few words, he left with Xiang Jianjue.

The courtyard became quiet.

Xiang Sheng closed the gate and stood in front of the stone steps looking at the empty yard. For a moment, he felt a little lonely.

Habits are truly terrible. Before her reincarnation, she had never felt such affection for anyone or anything in Dongzhou.

Humans are not plants or trees, and Luo Qingyun's companionship over the past ten years has long become a shackle.

After closing his eyes, Xiang Sheng opened them again, and his eyes were clear again.

Luo Qingyun is not Lu Zhu, and she is no longer the extremely weak Qi-refining cultivator she was back then. Everything will be different.

Five days later, the other three major sects finally arrived, and with them came another part of the people from Tianqing Pavilion and Xianghuo Hall.

The five parties seemed to have a tacit understanding and went up the mountain at the same time. The huge crowd of people was walking on the main mountain road. Xiang Sheng glanced at the top of Yunlong Peak from a distance and saw that most of them were old faces.

There were so many guests that the reception room was already full. Fortunately, Ying Changfeng had made preparations and set up a separate reception area on the flat ground at the top of the main peak. He also ordered all his disciples to enter the venue to increase the momentum. Xiang Sheng was among them, saving him the trouble of sneaking into the reception room.

After everyone was seated, Ying Changfeng finally appeared and sat down in the main seat in the middle. He coughed lightly and said, "Our humble family is humble, so please bear with us, our distinguished disciple."

"Master Ying, there's no need to waste time talking nonsense."

The cold-faced man on the right spoke first, "If your sect cannot give us an explanation today, this day next year will be the anniversary of the Wanjian Sect's death."

Ying Changfeng's expression changed slightly. "I haven't asked yet, but which disciple of Fengyue Sect are you from?"

After these words came out, the cold-faced man's expression became even colder, and he slowly said: "I am the second true disciple of Fengyue Sect, Zuo Jing!"

"Haha, Fengyue Sect's Jiang Zhenchuan is the number one prodigy in Dongzhou. His brilliance seems a bit too dazzling. Not to mention Wanjian Sect, even this Dharma Protector has never heard of this name before."

Hei Jue had a gentle expression, but his words were full of sarcasm and sarcasm. "Master Zuo Zhenchuan, may I ask how your senior brother's injuries are doing?"

Zuo Jing glanced at Hei Jue with an icy gaze, his heart filled with rage. However, due to the situation, he couldn't vent his anger. He could only snort coldly, "Don't worry, Senior Brother will recover on his own."

"Is that so..."

Hei Jue smiled meaningfully, and the atmosphere in the field suddenly became more tense.

"You two, don't forget the important things."

Bai Miaoyin's voice was clear and pleasant, inexplicably calming. "We are all gathered here today to discuss the strange land. We can discuss the grudges between the two factions later."

"Fairy Miaoyin is absolutely right."

Hei Jue chuckled and returned his gaze to Ying Changfeng. "Master Ying, you were reluctant to speak five days ago, but today the five major sects have gathered together. You can no longer refuse."

"I never refuse."

Ying Changfeng's face was gloomy. He took the fragment handed to him by Xiang Jianjue and threw it into the air, where it hovered in the middle of the crowd.

"Look, everyone, what is this?"

The fragments immediately attracted everyone's attention. For a moment, their spiritual consciousness flew around and swept through the fragments, but they were all cut into pieces by the green light emitted by the fragments.

"What is that?!" someone exclaimed.

More people frowned and looked unhappy.

Xiang Sheng, who was standing among the disciples, kept his gaze fixed on a table in Tianqing Pavilion. The head of the table was a woman who looked very unfamiliar.
