The smoke and dust cleared, and a figure appeared before everyone. It was naturally the Su Jinyue that everyone was discussing.
Seeing that Su Jinyue was unharmed, everyone's eyes were filled with shock. That was a cultivator's self-detonation. Even the most powerful cultivator would not be able to escape unscathed. How did Su Jinyue do it?
"Sect Master! Are you alright?" The Fifth Elder stepped forward and asked with concern. He had arrived a long time ago and had witnessed what had happened, but with the two sides fighting, one was the daughter of the former sect master, whom he had watched grow up, and the other was the current sect master. He really didn't know which side to help.
"It's okay." Su Jinyue replied calmly, walking towards Zhan Yihan who was walking towards her. She had naturally seen the Fifth Elder a long time ago, but she didn't blame him. After all, it was human nature.
Zhan Yihan walked forward, reached out and held Su Jinyue's hand, and walked with her towards their bedroom. If Jinyue hadn't sent him a message just now, he would have taken action long ago.
"I'm fine! Don't look so stern, it's scary." Su Jinyue smiled at Zhan Yihan and playfully stuck out her tongue at him. She knew he was worried about her, but she was still confident she could handle Gu Yanhuan. Besides, she had the Golden Leaf Realm, so why would she let herself get hurt?
"Still laughing." Zhan Yihan rolled his eyes at Su Jinyue, feeling both angry and helpless. He knew she would be fine, but he was still worried about her. Even if she got even a hair injured, he would be heartbroken for a long time.
Su Jinyue smiled even more brightly, "Of course I have to smile, who made me have a good husband." She saw through the mirror that everyone on Earth now calls their husband "husband".
Zhan Yihan shook his head and smiled, his eyes full of helplessness and pampering, "Don't show any mercy to the enemy in the future." Being kind to the enemy is being cruel to yourself.
"Yes, sir!" Su Jinyue saluted mischievously.
"I really can't do anything about you." Zhan Yihan raised his lips and smiled, looking at Su Jinyue with eyes full of love that could not be concealed.
The Great Elder opened his eyes in surprise, filled with ecstasy, excitement, and delight. He hadn't expected the elixir the Sect Master had given him to be so effective. In just one day, it had already boosted his cultivation to a higher level. He would definitely serve the Sect Master wholeheartedly from now on.
The Great Elder stood up, walked out of the room, and headed towards the main peak.
Seeing the Fifth Elder with a worried look on his face, the First Elder was a little surprised, "Fifth Elder, what's wrong with you?"
The Fifth Elder came to his senses after hearing the First Elder's words. He sighed and said, "I have offended the Sect Master." He recounted in detail what had happened yesterday. Although the Sect Master hadn't said anything yesterday, her tone of voice showed her displeasure.
The Great Elder shook his head regretfully, "Didn't I let her leave? Who let her in?" He had watched Xiao Huan grow up. How could he not feel heartbroken when she ended up like this?
"It's me," the Fifth Elder said with guilt. He knew he shouldn't have agreed to let Xiao Huan in, but seeing her crying so sadly, his heart softened.
The Great Elder sighed, "You are so confused! I know you are sentimental, but since the Qingliu Sect has changed its leader, you should follow the current leader." It's not that he doesn't remember the old friendship, otherwise he would not have let Xiao Huan go.
"I know! But after all, I watched her grow up. She's no different from my own child," the Fifth Elder said sadly. Now his heart was filled with self-blame and regret.
"I'll take you to explain to the Sect Master. She'll probably forgive you," said the Great Elder. Although he had only met the Sect Master a few times, he could tell she wasn't a heartless or ungrateful person.
The fifth elder hesitated, nodded, and followed the first elder.
Su Jinyue and Zhan Yihan were drinking tea and chatting leisurely in the pavilion.
Seeing the First Elder and the Fifth Elder walking towards them, Su Jinyue raised her eyebrows playfully.
"Greetings to the two sect masters!" The first elder and the fifth elder respectfully saluted Su Jinyue and Zhan Yihan.
"No need to be so polite. Congratulations to the Great Elder for breaking through to the Immortal King stage." Su Jinyue raised the corner of her lips slightly.
The Fifth Elder looked at the First Elder in shock. No wonder he felt that the First Elder's aura had changed.
"It's all thanks to the Sect Master. Thank you so much for giving me the elixir," the Great Elder said gratefully. He had been stuck in the late Upper Immortal stage for over a hundred years. If the Sect Master hadn't given him the elixir, he didn't know when he would have been able to break through to the Immortal Lord stage.
The Fifth Elder looked at the First Elder in disbelief. He was naturally the most familiar with the First Elder's situation. He hadn't expected the First Elder to have achieved a breakthrough, and in such a short period of time, he had ascended a level, leaping directly past the peak of the late Upper Immortal stage to the early Immortal Lord stage. What elixir had the Sect Master given the First Elder? The Snow Soul Elixir had already astounded him, but the Sect Master possessed an even more extraordinary elixir. Could it be that the Sect Master was already a ninth-level Immortal Elixir Grandmaster? How old was she?
"Master! Can I ask how old you are?" The fifth elder couldn't help but ask curiously.
The Great Elder also looked at Su Jinyue expectantly. He was also very curious about this.
"Thirty-three." Su Jinyue said.
"Only thirty-three?!" The First and Fifth Elders stared at Su Jinyue blankly, as if struck by lightning. Had they heard correctly? How could she be only thirty-three? Even the most talented couldn't have achieved her level of accomplishment at thirty-three. How could they possibly survive? They were all over a thousand years old.
After a long while, the First and Fifth Elders slowly came back to their senses. They looked at Su Jinyue with shock and a hint of suspicion. They really couldn't believe that Su Jinyue was only thirty-three years old.
The First Elder and the Fifth Elder turned their gaze to Zhan Yihan, "Master! How old are you?" Their voices trembled slightly.
"Thirty-seven." Zhan Yihan said.
The First and Fifth Elders stumbled, nearly falling flat on their faces. They'd lived for over a thousand years in vain, even worse than two children less than a hundred years old. Beyond deep shock, they were filled with admiration for Su Jinyue and Zhan Yihan. Regardless of how they cultivated, reaching such a high level at their age was undoubtedly a difficult feat. As cultivators themselves, they naturally understood the hardships of cultivation.
"Sect Master! I was wrong! Please punish me," the Fifth Elder said, looking at Su Jinyue with a sincere expression. His perception of Su Jinyue had completely changed. He had originally harbored a lingering resentment towards them, having killed the Grand Elder, severely injured the former Sect Master, and then used poison to control them. But now that resentment had completely vanished, leaving only deep admiration and respect for them. They had achieved such remarkable things at such a young age, and he was confident that the Qingliu Sect would continue to flourish under their leadership. He seemed to have foreseen an even brighter future for the Qingliu Sect.
