Chapter 398
Ning Yan and the Grand Elder fought fiercely, from day to night, and from night to dawn. However, Ning Yan fought more and more fiercely. It was the first time that he fought so happily, and he used all his strength. He also realized new things. Those things seemed to be rooted deep in his soul and were now stimulated by him, which brought him closer to the state of incarnation.
The Grand Elder was a little confused. Although he seldom took action nowadays, he had never fought so hard with other Jindan cultivators. He became more and more frightened and understood Master Lu's thoughts. If Ning Yan was not eliminated now, he would become a great threat to the Chixia Sect in the future.
At this time, he also complained to Master Lu. This big trouble was caused by Master Lu. If he hadn't handled it unfairly, how could Ning Yan chase after Chixia Sect? If Master Lu hadn't refused to hand over his troublemaker son, Ning Yan wouldn't have taken his anger out on the entire Chixia Sect.
“It’s time to end it!”
As soon as he finished speaking, the sword in Ning Yan's hand burst out with an extremely dazzling light. The sword seemed to split the entire sky in half, and attacked the Supreme Elder with a breath of destruction.
"No--"
As soon as Lei Yunyi arrived at the fighting scene, he saw the earth-shaking sword. His attention was completely attracted by the sword. It was the screams and the figure flying backwards of the Grand Elder that awakened him from being immersed in the sword. He quickly flew over and caught the Grand Elder.
The Grand Elder spat out blood, grabbed Lei Yunyi's hand and said, "Quick, get rid of him, otherwise the Chixia Sect will be in danger!"
Lei Yunyi was furious: "Grand Elder, don't you see who is the one who is leading the Chixia Sect into danger? Ning Yan is only seeking justice. Can you ignore the injustice suffered by the disciples for the sake of face? If this continues, the Chixia Sect will truly destroy itself!"
"The decline of Chixia Sect is not caused by others, but the problem lies with Chixia Sect itself."
The Grand Elder's expression immediately fell, and confusion appeared in his eyes: "Could it be that I am wrong?"
Lei Yunyi said: "As the head of the Punishment Hall of Chixia Sect, I don't even have the power to punish Lu Herong. I, the head of the Punishment Hall, have become a mere decoration in Chixia Sect. Does the Supreme Elder want the Sect Master to force me, the head of the Punishment Hall, out as well?"
"No!" The Supreme Elder was so shocked that he held Lei Yunyi's hand even tighter.
On the other side, Ning Yan put away his sword, and Yuan Jing immediately rushed to his side, took out a pill and asked him to take it and recover quickly. Although the Supreme Elder of the God Transformation Realm was defeated, Ning Yan also suffered a lot of damage, and it was not so easy to defeat the God Transformation Realm cultivator.
After taking a breath, Ning Yan took Yuan Jing's hand and flew to Lei Yunyi, bowing and saying, "Master Lei, thank you for speaking fair words for Ning Yan. Ning Yan did not seek the annihilation of the entire Chixia Sect. All he wanted was justice and severe punishment for the murderer, nothing more."
Lei Yunyi looked at Ning Yan with relief. He was not blinded by hatred. He nodded and said, "I am also wrong. If I could persist instead of letting the headmaster do whatever he wants, we wouldn't have reached the current situation. Don't worry, I have come to the right conclusion this time. I will take the Supreme Elder back and give you an explanation, Ning Yan."
"Okay." Ning Yan agreed without any hesitation, because he knew that Lei Yunyi was a man of his words. It seemed that Lei Yunyi was determined to reorganize the Chixia Sect. This was also good. He did not want to end up with Yuan Jing in an isolated and helpless situation in the entire Feihong Continent.
Lei Yunyi took the Grand Elder away. The other cultivators did not expect that after Lei Yunyi appeared, Ning Yan actually shook hands with the Chixia Sect and made peace. The speed of the change in the situation made them dumbfounded. It was as incredible as Ning Yan defeating the Grand Elder in the early stage of Huashen with his peak Nascent Soul cultivation.
But they knew that things were going to change in the Chixia Sect and in the Feihong Continent.
Ning Jing and Jingyan Sect are no longer dispensable cultivators and forces. On that day, Ning Yan became famous in a battle outside Jingyan Sect, and today's battle shook the entire Feihong Continent and was of epoch-making significance.
Those cultivators greeted Ning Yan and Yuan Jing one after another before leaving, and their attitudes were very respectful. Even though they were Taoist cultivators and Ning Yan was a demon cultivator, they did not have any prejudice. This was a truly strong man, and strong people deserve respect.
"Let's go. Let's find a place to regulate our breathing first, and then wait outside the Chixia Sect?" Yuan Jing asked.
Ning Yan nodded: "I'll listen to you."
Then Yuan Jing took Ning Yan and flew away. Some cultivators had not gone far. After hearing this conversation, they decided to follow them to the outside of Chixia Sect to watch the big show of Chixia Sect.
Before Lei Yunyi brought the Grand Elder back to the sect, the news that the Grand Elder was defeated by Ning Yan had already spread back. Of course, it not only spread to the Chixia Sect, but also spread to the entire Feihong Continent at a rapid speed.
Sect Leader Lu was drinking spiritual tea while discussing matters with the sect's steward when he suddenly heard the news. The teacup slipped from his hand, fell to the ground and broke into pieces, but the crisp sound did not wake everyone up from the news.
The Grand Elder was defeated? That means the Grand Elder was defeated by Ning Yan? How is this possible?
Did the person who sent the message send the wrong message?
But it wasn't just one message that was like this; several messages said the same thing: the Supreme Elder had really been defeated.
Sect Leader Lu and the elders who stood on his side and had vested interests in him turned pale. They thought that they had persuaded the Supreme Elder to act quickly enough. As long as they got rid of Ning Yan before he was promoted to the God Transformation stage, they would be able to rest easy in the future. But who would have thought that he could defeat a God Transformation cultivator before he even reached the God Transformation stage.
"Master, Hall Master Lei is on his way back with the Grand Elder." A disciple came to report.
Sect Leader Lu jumped up from his seat in shock, and the other elders asked, "Sect Leader, what should we do now? Sect Leader, come up with a plan quickly. I'm afraid that the evil thief Ning Yan will attack our Chixia Sect next."
"How dare he!" An elder denied, "The Chixia Sect has been around for thousands of years, and he can't even break through the sect's protective formation. Does he think the Chixia Sect is a small sect like the Jingyan Sect that was established only a few years ago?"
Sect Leader Lu smiled bitterly and said, "Let me be quiet for a while. Let's wait until the Grand Elder comes back before we discuss anything."
"Yes, Master." He wanted to mention Lu Herong, but seeing that the Master was no longer interested in anything else, he had to say goodbye first.
Lei Yunyi quickly returned to Chixia Sect with the Grand Elder. In fact, the Grand Elder was unwilling to bow to Ning Yan, but the battle just now made him realize that Ning Yan had grown to the point where they could not control him. If they continued to hold on to him, perhaps when Ning Yan became a spirit, the Chixia Sect would be destroyed.
Before, it was to protect the Chixia Sect, and now it is also to protect the Chixia Sect. On the way, Lei Yunyi handed a list to the Supreme Elder for review. The list listed all the disciples in the Chixia Sect who violated various rules and the identities of these disciples. Especially the evil things done by Lu Herong, the son of the leader, framed Ning Yan was just one of them. There were also those who forced female disciples and bullied the sect disciples who had no backing. Many disciples were forced to flee the sect, and some have not been heard of until now.
Over the years, his position as the head of the Punishment Hall had become increasingly nominal. Whatever he wanted to do was always stopped by the sect leader and the elders standing behind him. In the beginning, Sect Leader Lu had been supported by the Grand Elder to take the position of Sect Leader. He planned to wait for the Grand Elder to come out of retreat and then tell him in detail about the changes in the sect.
But later events made him realize that the Grand Elder might not be unaware of the changes in the Chixia Sect and the actions of Sect Leader Lu, but in the eyes of the Grand Elder, those things were of no importance. Compared with the Sect Leader, the elders and their children, the life and death of those ordinary disciples were insignificant.
But now the first backlash has already appeared, and if we don’t stop it, the Chixia Sect will really perish.
When the Grand Elder saw the list and the things that the second and third generations had done, his heart trembled for the first time. He hadn't thought about how serious the matter was, and he was reluctant before, but now he asked with a trembling voice: "Is it really that serious? Are all these things true?"
Lei Yunyi said: "This is only what I found out. There are also things I haven't found out. With the emergence of Ning Yan, I don't think Chixia Sect can afford a second Ning Yan."
The Grand Elder lowered his eyes and smiled bitterly: "It seems that I am really old. I thought that the Chixia Sect was still as prosperous as before. When I return to the sect, I will hand over the Chixia Sect to you to rectify it. You can punish me as I deserve."
Lei Yunyi nodded and accepted the task, because he grew up in Chixia Sect, which was like home to him. How could he abandon this home unless he had no other choice? Therefore, he hoped to rescue it while it was still possible.
He had even made up his mind before that if the Supreme Elder still stood on the side of Master Lu, he would bring some people to break away from Master Lu and pass on the Chixia Sect's skills, at least preserving a seed for the Chixia Sect.
Fortunately, things were not so serious. Perhaps it was Ning Yan who defeated the Grand Elder and made him wake up. In fact, he should thank Ning Yan.
When the Grand Elder and Lei Yunyi returned to Chixia Sect, the situation in Chixia Sect had really changed. The Grand Elder personally beat Sect Leader Lu severely and removed him from the position of Sect Leader. Lei Yunyi took over and stayed in the sect with his injury, supporting Lei Yunyi in reorganizing the entire sect.
There is a Chixia City outside the Chixia Sect. The cultivators who came here were waiting for the excitement of the Chixia Sect, and then they heard that Sect Leader Lu was removed and Lei Yunyi took over as the Sect Leader. The whole Chixia City was in an uproar. Compared to them, these cultivators who came here to watch the excitement understood better why the Supreme Elder did this.
He was forced to do so. Ning Yan would definitely seek revenge on the father and son of the Lu family. If the Lu didn't step down from the position of the leader, the entire Chixia Sect would be targeted by Ning Yan. Now the Chixia Sect could at least save some face by doing this. Otherwise, if the Chixia Sect's protective formation was broken by Ning Yan one day, then there would be no face left.
