Chapter 305: Thoughts of the Sects
Taiyuan Peak.
"Fellow Daoist Zhang, what does this mean?"
Chu Ning looked at Zhang Dejiang with dissatisfaction. After entering the hall, not only was his spiritual awareness restricted, he couldn't even move.
The entire hall is filled with formation restrictions, making it more like a high-level prison.
"Fellow Daoist Chu, if I were to follow orders, the elder just sent me a message asking us to come to this place."
Zhang Dejiang smiled bitterly. When he received the message from the elder, he was also filled with shock.
The Hall of Repentance.
This is the main hall of the sect's law enforcement hall. Generally, only disciples who have made mistakes will come here to receive punishment.
But he and his companions had not done anything wrong, so why did the elders ask them to come to the Temple of Reflection? However, even though he was puzzled, facing the elders' orders, Zhang Dejiang had no choice but to follow them.
"Fellow Daoist Chu, just wait patiently. The elders will be here soon."
Not long after Zhang Dejiang finished speaking, the three old men that Chu Ning had seen earlier appeared in the hall.
In addition to these three people, there was also a middle-aged man.
The middle-aged man had a simple aura, without any aura of a strong person, but Chu Ning did not dare to underestimate him at all. It seemed that the other's eyes could see through everything.
Especially the three elders were walking behind the middle-aged man, seemingly respecting him.
"metropolitan!"
When Zhang Dejiang and the other man saw the middle-aged man, there was a look of surprise on their faces.
This matter even alarmed the sect leader.
Although they are elder disciples, they have been in the sect for hundreds of years and have seen the sect master only a few times. The last time they saw the sect master was at the sect celebration two hundred years ago.
Is this man the leader of Taiyuan Peak? Chu Ning's eyes were also filled with shock. Taking their Danshan Sect as an example, the leader's strength has surpassed the God Transformation Realm, and is between the God Transformation Realm and the Void Realm. However, the Danshan Sect is only one of the sixteen super sects in the Danyu.
Taiyuan Peak is one of the three major sects in Taiyuan Domain. Although Taiyuan Peak is not ranked as high as Dan Domain, the strength of Taiyuan Peak is not weaker than Danshan Sect.
In other words, the person in front of him should at least be at the Return to Void Realm between the Transformation of the Spirit and the Void.
"Zhang Dejiang, tell me everything that happened."
The second elder looked at Zhang Dejiang. Zhang Dejiang did not dare to hide anything and recounted in detail all the experiences they had after they set out.
However, Zhang Dejiang concealed the fact that Chu Ning went to Sihai Trading Company to deliver a letter. After all, the second elder had instructed them to return to the sect immediately. If this was revealed, Zhang Dejiang himself would be punished.
Of course, the most important thing is that Zhang Dejiang felt that this was just a small matter and had nothing to do with Senior Brother Ye’s affairs.
As Zhang Dejiang spoke, Chu Ning could feel that the attention of these people had shifted to him, because he felt inexplicably pressured.
"Little friend Chu, thank you for saving the lives of several disciples of my sect."
Ouyang Tingjing was very humble and looked at Chu Ning with a smile. Chu Ning quickly said, "This junior is also trying to save himself."
"My dear friend, may I ask how you discovered that something was wrong?"
Hearing Ouyang Tingjing ask this, Chu Ning knew that the key question had come. This was what the sect leader wanted to know.
"I have practiced a secret technique and am extremely sensitive to other people's auras. Fellow Daoist Ye's aura changed before and after he entered the teleportation array, so I became suspicious."
"You just took action when you were suspicious. What would you do if something went wrong?"
Compared to Ouyang Tingjing's gentleness, the words of the second elder of Taiyuan Peak were very sharp, and the pressure from a powerful late-stage Spirit Transformation master was so great that if it were an ordinary person, he would probably be exposed.
Fortunately, Chu Ning was used to lying in front of his master, and the late-stage Spiritualization expert could not scare him, so he immediately replied: "Junior is confident in his own judgment."
"That old man..."
"Second Elder."
Ouyang Tingjing interrupted the second elder and looked at Chu Ning with a smile: "Don't worry, my friend Chu, because this matter is extraordinary, so we want to ask for clarification."
"Junior understands." Chu Ning nodded, then asked curiously: "The person who harmed Fellow Daoist Ye has an unusual background?"
“It’s really unusual.”
Ouyang Tingjing just gave a brief answer and obviously had no intention of giving Chu Ning a detailed explanation.
"So how are Daoyou Zhao and the others doing?"
Chu Ning also knew that the other party would not tell him about the demons, so he continued to ask about Zhao Qin's situation.
"Zhao Qin and the others are fine. They just suffered minor injuries. They will recover after a short period of rest."
"As long as Zhao Qin and the others are okay, I'm glad."
Chu Ning also breathed a sigh of relief. Although he had already thought of where to bury Zhao Qin, it would be better if this guy could be alive.
"My dear Chu, please stay at my Taiyuan Peak for now. I will inform your clan. The people who are dealing with you are not ordinary. It will be unsafe if you leave Taiyuan Peak."
I don't believe you! Listening to the other party's words, Chu Ning complained in his heart that the alien demon would only stay in Taiyuan Domain if he was a fool.
"Thank you for your protection, senior."
Chu Ning showed a grateful look on his face. Ouyang Tingjing waved his hand and said, "You have done a favor to my disciples. This is what I, Taiyuan Peak, should do. Dejiang, take Chu Xiaoyou to the backyard to rest."
"Yes, Master."
Zhang Dejiang took the order and led Chu Ning to leave from the side hall. After Chu Ning and the other two left, the second elder couldn't help but said, "Master, I'm afraid this kid didn't tell the truth."
"It's possessed by a demon. Its aura is undetectable."
Ouyang Tingjing narrowed his eyes slightly: "Even if the aura can be distinguished, unless you know that this aura is a demon or an evil being, why would you take action?"
Chu Ning, who followed Zhang Dejiang towards the courtyard, was also startled at this moment, with a look of regret in his heart.
He was reckless.
Even though he sensed two auras in Ye Pengxiang's body, that did not prove that Ye Pengxiang was a bad person. Maybe Ye Pengxiang had practiced some special skills, or maybe Ye Pengxiang had a companion spirit beast?
Without evidence that Ye Pengxiang would harm them, they should not have suddenly taken action against Ye Pengxiang. The best way to deal with it was to question him and ask Ye Pengxiang for an explanation.
…
…
"Master, now we can confirm that a demon did appear there. How should we deal with this matter?"
The three elders looked at Ouyang Tingjing. Fortunately, it was Elder Chen who went there this time, as Elder Chen knew about the demons.
The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!
According to their subsequent investigation, the destination of the teleportation array is a hidden small space, and the demon should be hiding in this small space.
"What do the elders think should be done?" Ouyang Tingjing asked back.
"I think it's best not to announce this matter to the public. If the news of the appearance of the alien demon in Taiyuan Domain spreads, I'm afraid the upper domain will definitely take the opportunity to intervene. This alien demon should be the fish that slipped through the net back then, so we just need to kill it in secret."
"Not right, but don't forget that the little fellow from Danshan Sect knows about this. Once this little fellow returns to Danshan Sect and tells his seniors about this, someone in Danshan Sect will also know about the alien demon."
Another elder shook his head, disagreeing with the second elder's approach.
The existence of alien demons is a secret even to ordinary cultivators in the God Transformation stage, but for some cultivators in the late God Transformation stage, many of them still know about it.
"If we conceal the truth about the alien demon and don't report it, I'm afraid our Taiyuan Peak cannot afford the consequences."
"It is definitely not possible for Taiyuan Peak to do this alone. I suggest notifying the other two sects, and the three sects should work together to capture this alien demon and interrogate him. If it is just a fish that escaped the net that year, then we should conceal the news. If the situation is serious, we can notify other regions."
The second elder stroked his beard and said, "As for this little fellow from Danshan Sect, we will temporarily detain him in the sect and deal with him later."
If it were their Taiyuan Peak, they naturally wouldn't want to offend Danshan Sect, but if it were the entire Taiyuan Region, the anger of Danshan Sect alone would be nothing.
The most important thing is that Danshan Sect cannot represent the entire Danyu.
"I will inform the other two sects later to see what decision they will make."
Ouyang Tingjing made the decision, and the elders who had opposed it before stopped talking.
…
…
Danshan Sect.
Qi Shiyun's pretty face showed a thoughtful look.
Not long ago, someone from Sihai Trading Company came to the sect and brought a message from Chu Ning, but the content of the message was a bit strange.
I encountered an emergency and needed to go to Taiyuan Peak, and I needed to go there to help.
Did his disciple offend the people of Taiyuan Peak and was captured by them? If that was the case, then there would be no time to send a letter to him.
So it was her own disciple who was bullied by the people from Taiyuan Peak, and she was going to Taiyuan Peak to ask for an explanation, but was afraid that Taiyuan Peak would not give an explanation, so she came to her for help.
Thinking of this, Qi Shiyun's pretty face turned cold and her figure disappeared from the spot.
After a while, they arrived at the main peak of Danshan Sect.
"Did Chu Ning encounter any problems at Taiyuan Peak?"
After hearing Qi Shiyun's report, Xie Jingxing hesitated for a moment and said, "I will send a letter to Taiyuan Peak to inquire about the situation."
"Master, there's no need to go to such trouble. I decided to go to Taiyuan Peak myself."
"Don't worry, Elder Qi."
Xie Jingxing spoke quickly. He knew Elder Qi's temper. If he allowed Elder Qi to go to Taiyuan Peak and Chu Ning was really wronged, Elder Qi would definitely make a big scene at Taiyuan Peak given his temper.
"Master, Chu Ning is my disciple."
Qi Shiyun's attitude was very firm. Xie Jingxing was silent for a moment and said, "Well, let Elder Qin accompany you."
Elder Qin's style of doing things is at two extremes from Elder Qi's. With Elder Qin mediating, the problem should be resolved.
"good."
Qi Shiyun nodded, turned around and left, but when she reached the entrance of the main hall, she suddenly stopped and asked, "Master, if Taiyuan Peak bullied my disciples first, are you unwilling to give an explanation?"
Xie Jingxing's expression also became serious. He was silent for three breaths and said, "Danshan Sect never lets its disciples suffer grievances outside. Chu Ning is your disciple and also the chief disciple of our Danshan Sect."
"Thank you, Master."
A smile appeared on Qi Shiyun's pretty face. The sect leader's answer did not disappoint her.
Danshan Sect has never sat idly by and watched its disciples being bullied.
