Chapter 761
The secret realm was closed, and the Shao family discovered that not only Shao Lu was missing, but even Shao Kang hadn't come out either. However, the soul lamps showed that the two were still alive. So where were they? Were they still in the secret realm?
The second elder of the Shao family who led the team had an extremely ugly expression on his face. The family forces in Hanyue Fairyland that were in competition with the Shao family expressed their gloating over the Shao family's misfortune. Listen, before they left, they said that the feud between them and Shao Lu would never end until death. Having provoked such an enemy, the Shao family will have no good days in the future.
It's easy to imagine that those two will make a comeback one day, and judging by the speed at which they are improving their cultivation, that day will not be far away. Is the Shao family ready?
"Let's go back first and send someone to look for the whereabouts of those two guys." It would be best to kill them while they are injured. By then, everyone will be dead. How can the Dragon Clan reach out to the Hanyue Fairyland to settle accounts with the Shao Family?
"Yes, Second Elder."
The Shao family suffered heavy losses during this trip into the secret realm, and the atmosphere on the way back was also very depressing.
With the return of these monks, the reputations of Yuan Jing and Yue Chenchu really spread throughout the fairyland. No matter which fairyland, one could hear about their deeds. The news dealers headed by Tianji Pavilion made a lot of money in the process. Of course, Tianji Pavilion was still very sensible and only sold news that could be sold, but it was enough to make people talk about it for a while.
For example, they have a nine-tailed fox and a five-clawed golden dragon by their side. Without considering other things, these two items alone will make people feel that they have great luck. For example, Yuan Jing was originally a mortal in the fairy world, and the method of transforming mortal qualifications sold by Tianji Pavilion came from this person. Another example is Yue Chenchu is an abandoned disciple of the Qingming Sect in the Qingwu Fairyland. Wow, now this abandoned disciple can confront the Fairy Emperor head-on, so ask whether the strongest cultivator of the Qingming Sect can defeat Yue Chenchu. Therefore, the word "abandoned disciple" can be judged by the spectators.
Some people also say that these two are actually the reincarnations of great powers, otherwise how could a mortal born in the fairyland have a connection with the three-tailed fox and the five-clawed golden dragon of the fox clan, and the speed of their cultivation progress is jaw-dropping. You should know that the Shao family has been guarding the ascension pool in the Qingwu Fairyland for more than 3,000 years, guarding these two people. But after more than 3,000 years, the two appeared as mortals from the fairyland and abandoned disciples of the Qingming Sect respectively.
As for seizing a body? Why did he have to seize the body of a mortal? If it weren't for Yuan Jing's extraordinary means, he would still be a mortal who couldn't compete with the Immortal Emperor.
The disciples of Qingming Sect who participated in the opening of the secret realm, at first knew that Yue Chenchu also appeared in the secret realm. They wished that he would die in the secret realm. Later, they hoped that he would die at the hands of Palace Master Han. However, Yue Chenchu was lucky and not only did he not die, but he became stronger and stronger. In the end, the disciples of Qingming Sect left in disgrace with their tails between their legs amid the mocking eyes of others.
Who wouldn't laugh at the Qingming Sect? Not only did they fail to pick up sesame seeds, but they also lost a big watermelon. Otherwise, if Yue Chenchu continued to stay in the Qingming Sect, the Qingming Sect would have the opportunity to develop into a first-class sect in the fairy world. However, such a great opportunity was lost from the Qingming Sect.
When these disciples returned to Qingming Sect, the news spread inside and outside Qingming Sect. The disciples who did not take Yue Chenchu seriously at first said, "I felt that the sect was unfair at the beginning. Senior Brother Yue is obviously a good person. How could he betray the sect and betray his master? Now, our sect has offended Senior Brother Yue badly. Can Senior Brother Yue spare our sect?"
On the one hand, they accused the sect of being unfair and demanded a reinvestigation of the matter and severe punishment of the culprit, but on the other hand, they were heartbroken that such a great opportunity had slipped away from them. However, they still held out hope, thinking that perhaps after severely punishing the culprit, Yue Chenchu would still have feelings for the sect and be able to help him, which would greatly benefit the Qingming Sect.
The Qingming Sect's top leaders were under great pressure. Not only did the outside forces and cultivators laugh at their actions, but the disciples inside the sect also had strong opinions. The Sect Master called together the top leaders and threw the question to Yue Chenchu's former master, saying, "Tell me how to deal with this matter. Yue Chenchu was your disciple at the time."
The sect leader was frightened and regretted agreeing to expel Yue Chenchu. If he were still allowed to stay in the sect, he would be so glorious as the sect leader and would have a say in the entire Qingwu Fairyland. Even the cultivators in the Qingwu Fairy Palace would respect him a little more when they saw him. Whenever the sect leader thought of such a great opportunity slipping away, he felt heartbroken.
Yue Chenchu's former master was also the head of a peak in the sect. Peak head Qiu had been gloomy since the news came back. Now that he saw that the head wanted to take all the responsibility, his face became even gloomier. He said angrily on the spot: "Have you forgotten how your disciple bullied me? Oh, by the way, your son has left his life in the secret realm and can't come back, and can't say anything."
He knew what these people were thinking. They had the same idea as the Sect Master. They thought that if they could put all the blame on him, the Qingming Sect would be cleared of all charges. He stood up and sneered, "You say you regret it now, but what were you doing in the first place? If we have to die, we die together. Don't expect me to bear the responsibility alone!"
After saying that, he walked away. The remaining senior executives started to shout unhappily, "What does Qiu mean by this? Are you going to drag us all down with you?"
The leader was in a great headache and wanted to kick the man surnamed Qiu out directly, but he was also very afraid of him. He was afraid that if things really came to that, Qiu would expose the affairs of the sect and drag down the entire Qingming Sect. Everyone present was not clean, so what would happen if Qiu came to this and everyone was doomed to fail?
"Maybe... it hasn't come to that point yet. We don't even know if those two can survive in the end."
Upon hearing this, the leader could only wave his hand, adjourn the meeting, and think of another solution.
The disciples who had participated in the incident and bullied Yue Chenchu were also in a panic, fearing that Yue Chenchu would suddenly appear from the sky one day to settle old scores with them.
As for Shao Yinluo of Xianlin Sect, he felt like he was dreaming ever since he saw Yue Chenchu. Was that really the Yue Chenchu he met during his training?
The cultivators of the Golden Wing Immortal Realm were even more fond of talking about the two talented cultivators who became famous in that battle, because one of them came from their Golden Wing Immortal Realm, and they felt proud of it. Many cultivators spontaneously began to look for where in the Golden Wing Immortal Realm the cultivator Yuan Jing was born, and finally, they found Galan City.
One day, a monk from outside the city asked the monks of Galan City: "I heard that a mortal child was born in a family in Galan City several decades ago, and then was sent away? Did this family never ask about this mortal child again?"
The monks of Galan City were surprised and said, "Every family has mortal children born, right? Isn't it the old rule to send them away? Otherwise, how can they live in Galan City? This is not a place for mortals to stay. Most forces are like this. However, the Tianji Pavilion has introduced a method to transform the qualifications of mortals. I guess the cost is not small. Most forces are unwilling to spend the effort and money on it."
The foreign monk continued to ask calmly, "So after sending him away, you will never ask about him again? You won't even ask whether he is alive or dead?"
The monk from Galan City replied, "It depends on the individual. Some people value blood ties, and even after sending them away, they will arrange the life of their offspring well to ensure that they will live a worry-free life. Some people pay more attention to the qualifications of their offspring, so it depends on personal luck. What's going on? Recently, it seems that many people in Galan City have been asking about this matter."
Just as the outside cultivator was about to reveal the secret, someone rushed into the restaurant and shouted, "Big news, earth-shattering news, the mortal son born to Patriarch Xiahou actually confronted Hanyue Celestial Palace head-on, and not only did he not lose, he also ran away. The outside world is going crazy over it, it's Patriarch Xiahou's mortal son! It's absolutely true!"
The wine glass in the hands of the monk from Nagara City slipped and fell on the table. He asked the monk opposite him in surprise: "Is this what you want to talk about? Is it true?"
“Haha,” although someone beat him to the punch, the outsider cultivator was still very interested in revealing the secret, “Yes, it’s the mortal son of the Xiahou family. He has already become a cultivator, and this time he participated in the opening of the Yuxu Secret Realm, offended the daughter of Han Song, the Palace Master of Hanyue Palace, and slapped the face of Palace Master Han. In the end, he led out the Hanyue Emperor, but he still left calmly, and the Dragon King of the Dragon Clan even came forward for him!”
"Is this true? It sounds like a fairy tale!"
"Go to Tianji Pavilion and buy a piece of news, and you'll know whether it's true or not."
"The latest news from the Tianji Pavilion has arrived. Come and have a look. The biggest winners of the opening of the Yuxu Secret Realm this time are the two cultivators Yuan Jing and Yue Chenchu. The other cultivators are all eclipsed by them. No one can compare to them. Among them, Yuan Jing is the son of the Xiahou family in our Galan City. However, he was taken away by his grandfather Wantinggu as soon as he was born and never came back. He and Yue Chenchu are really going head-on against the entire Hanyue Immortal Palace!"
"Oh my god, it's true? But isn't he just an ordinary person?"
"I've already said that he was the one who provided the Tianji Pavilion with the method to transform the mortals' qualifications. He has a good relationship with the young master of the Tianji Pavilion."
"Oh my god, how strong is he? Could he be an Immortal Emperor? How regretful would the Xiahou family be? The Xiahou family certainly didn't expect that the mortal child they gave up could achieve such a great success."
Many foreign cultivators rushed in to watch the fun, and the cultivators in the city were also going crazy. Their Galan City actually produced a cultivator who could confront the Immortal Emperor. Galan City should be proud of it, but the current situation is very embarrassing, because Galan City did not contribute at all, and it is not certain whether others will recognize Galan City or not.
Other families that were at odds with the Xiahou family were sweating. Fortunately, the Xiahou family had not asked about the child since the mortal son left, as if the child had never been born. Otherwise, if the child had achieved such great success today, the Xiahou family would have risen to prominence. Would there still be room for them to survive in Galan City? They might have been destroyed by the Xiahou family long ago.
There was an uproar in the city, and it was impossible for the Xiahou family not to know about this. They repeatedly asked people to confirm whether the cultivator named Yuan Jing was the child of the Xiahou family, and even went to the Tianji Pavilion in person to buy information. After collecting a considerable amount of immortal stones, the Tianji Pavilion told them with absolute certainty that this cultivator named Yuan Jing had a cultivator named Wantinggu by his side, and Yuan Jing called the other party "grandfather". Whether he was the child of the Xiahou family or not depended on how they saw it.
How else can you see it? The person who came to buy the news was so shocked that he didn't even remember how to get back to the Xiahou family. When he returned with the news, even the old patriarch was alarmed and came out of seclusion to personally inquire about the matter. Who else could Wan Tinggu have as a grandson? Wan Tinggu only had a daughter who married into the Xiahou family. The head of the Xiahou family fainted on the spot.
Madam Xiahou also fainted in the backyard, and the Xiahou family was in chaos.
Mrs. Xiahou went crazy after waking up, and asked the Xiahou family to send someone to escort her to find her son. She wanted to find her son back so that her son could support her. Finally, she was awakened by a slap from the old master of the family.
"Where should we find him? Didn't I hear that he ran away after exchanging blows with the Frost Moon Emperor? Do you know where he is? I only saw how powerful your son is, but do you think the Xiahou family is capable of fighting against the Frost Moon Palace? These people from the Xiahou family would die on the way without even leaving the Golden Wing Immortal Realm."
The old patriarch turned around and slapped his son again. They were all doing stupid things. How much money would it cost to raise a mortal son? But after letting Wan Tinggu take the child away, neither of the couple thought of asking a question. They all treated this son as if he had never been born and regarded his birth as a stain.
“Everyone behave yourself. No one is allowed to move. Just stay in Galan City and behave yourself. No matter how people outside laugh at you, don’t fight with them!” It must be said that the old patriarch was the most sober at this moment. It was no use regretting now. If the Xiahou Family behaved themselves, they could still gain some momentum. At least no matter how people outside laughed at them, they would not dare to fight against them. After all, they did not dare to bet that Yuan Jing would sit back and watch the Xiahou Family perish. But if the Xiahou Family jumped up and down, the outside parties would definitely not be happy to see it.
"Also, the head of the family has been removed. Gather the clan members to elect a new head of the family. Write down the lesson of this time in the family tree. From now on, the Xiahou family will never mistreat any mortal child again."
"Yes, old master."
No one sympathized with the head of the family. They were all angry at the head of the family and his wife for ignoring Yuan Jing over the years. Look, he was unwilling to use the surname Xiahou. Of course, they forgot that when the head of the family made this decision, no one in the family stood up to oppose it. Like the head of the family, they regarded this mortal child as a stain on the Xiahou family and wished they could send the child as far away as possible so that everyone in the city would forget the existence of this child.
Yuan Jing and Yue Chenchu, who were nowhere to be found by outsiders, were now lying in the Yuxu Mirror. The aftereffects had broken out completely, and their bodies were in a constant state of collapse and reorganization. The feeling was indescribable. They lay side by side, looking at each other, and even trying to make fun of each other. It was a pity for Xiaohuan and Xiaojing, who were busy on the side, or feeding them pills, but not food.
