Chapter 251 Everyone Has Hidden Motives



"My name is Cang Jue, the head of the Xiaoyao Peak of Lingshan..."

Li Shiyao wasn't that interested either, as Cang Jue was interrupted halfway through his sentence.

"Master, Shiyao is hungry!"

Cang Jue watched as Su Cheng changed his disdainful expression towards her to one of doting affection, and then smiled and spoke.

"Okay, okay~ Shiyao, be good~ I'll make you some stir-fried pork slices and chunks~"

Then, watching Li Shiyao clinging to Su Cheng's arm and swaying back and forth in a coquettish manner, I thought to myself, "Is she the Holy Maiden of the Holy Mountain?"

How could their behavior be so indecent?

"Yes! Master is the best! I love Master the most!"

Although Li Shiyao wasn't interested in Ms. Cang, Cang Jue was a kind-hearted person. He pulled Li Shiyao's tightly clasped arms away, dragged her behind him, and began to reprimand her.

"Do you know who he is? This Su Cheng is no good person. You'd better stay away from him!"

Li Shiyao was a little unhappy. Was this guy deaf? Couldn't he hear her call him Master?

"What's it to you? This is Shiyao's master, the kindest person in the world! You'd better not talk nonsense, or I'll have my senior sister beat you up!"

She immediately withdrew her hand and shrank behind Su Cheng, just like a shy child.

Cang Jue was a little confused. Was this correct?

She had heard of the Holy Maiden of the Holy Mountain!

Low IQ, big breasts and no brains, that's no secret!

Despite possessing extraordinary talent, he is unfortunately childlike and a fool!

She guessed that these disciples were probably completely unaware of what Su Cheng was doing behind the scenes!

Judging from Li Shiyao's appearance, she has most likely been sold out and will have to count money for her master!

"Do you know what your master has done? The world's greatest good man? He killed over a hundred people from the Heavenly Dao Pavilion! Even the Heavenly Dao Pavilion's leader, Cheng Liang, was severely injured by him!"

"Then you still dare to come? Aren't you afraid that your master will also beat you severely?"

Li Shiyao, hiding behind Su Cheng, was also acting arrogantly, like a fox borrowing the tiger's power!

With her master around, she had absolutely nothing to fear!

"Master! Let's ignore her!"

As she spoke, Li Shiyao gently patted the jade pendant, and the Lingxian Palace slowly appeared in the distance!

Cang Jue was also somewhat surprised to see the suddenly appearing Immortal Palace!

Lingxian Palace is a sect, after all. Regardless of its size, it shouldn't be such a dilapidated hut!

Putting aside whether the two disciples would find it unpleasant, even if they didn't, this dilapidated house couldn't possibly accommodate three people, could it?

She guessed that Lingxian Palace was probably located elsewhere, but she never expected that Lingxian Palace was actually a celestial palace.

If that's the case, blindly approaching Suzhou would likely be dangerous!

Suzhou might not be as it seems. Although Li Shiyao is stupid, what she said makes sense!

Su Cheng single-handedly wreaked havoc in the Heavenly Dao Pavilion; her cultivation level was clearly inferior to Cheng Liang's.

Although there were some cultivators behind him, if Su Cheng was really that powerful, these people would probably just be offering themselves up for death.

"Elder, are we just going to let them go like this?"

After watching Su Cheng and Li Shiyao return to Lingxian Palace, Lingxian Palace slowly disappeared from sight.

Cang Jue slowly took out a communication magic item that resembled a compass. As the magic flowed, he made contact with Mount Ling.

“I’ve met Su Cheng, and I think she’s probably not the type to confess on her own.”

"Moreover, I think it seems to be true."

A white, 3D-like projection appeared on the compass, and then the other person's voice was heard.

"You mean, what the Heavenly Dao Pavilion said is true? He almost wiped out the entire Heavenly Dao Pavilion all by himself?"

Cang Jue nodded; this wasn't the first time she'd done something like this.

The so-called search for evidence was just an excuse; it was her job.

This world is divided into black and white, but black is not necessarily black, and white is not necessarily white.

She initially thought that Su Cheng had offended someone he shouldn't have, which was why he was labeled with such a accusation. After all, who could believe that a Foundation Establishment cultivator had almost wiped out a major sect?

Su Cheng's cultivation level is no secret. Although both disciples have shown their talent in this competition, it does not change the fact that Su Cheng's cultivation level is only at the Foundation Establishment stage.

"Yes, but it's strange. I just tested him, and he is indeed at the Foundation Establishment stage, but..."

The white projection seemed quite surprised as well, after all, such a thing was hard to believe.

"But what?"

"But he gave me a strange feeling. He was showing weakness, but more than that, it seemed like he was afraid of trouble..."

"What's the meaning?"

"I think there are probably things we don't know about this, and I think it's best not to get close to him before we know the whole story."

"That's impossible. You don't know, the pressure from the Heavenly Dao Pavilion and all the immortal sects is immense. I initially thought it was because the Lingxian Palace had affected their interests, but now it seems they want to completely wipe out the Lingxian Palace."

Cang Jue was starting to lose his composure. What did he mean by "impossible"?

"Why do I always have to do these troublesome things?"

"Once you've settled things with Suzhou, you'll be free. I'll ask someone to arrange a sinecure for you."

Cang Jue curled his lip: "You'd better keep your word."

As he watched the white projection disappear, Cang Jue let out a long sigh of relief.

To be honest, she also found it hard to believe such a thing. To be honest, she also felt that Su Cheng or that eldest disciple had offended someone they shouldn't have.

But Li Shiyao's attitude, and Su Cheng's feigned weakness...

Adding to the fact that she had just seen the Lingxian Palace, which resembled a celestial palace, she began to waver.

Shaking his head to stop himself from overthinking, he said, "I hope I'm just imagining things. Go knock on the door."

Before long, Lingxian Palace reappeared, and this time it was Dongfang Jue who opened the door.
