Chapter 503: Sister Will Protect You
Lin Zhan, the leader of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect, walked slowly in a black and gold robe. His silver hair was wrapped in a jade hair crown, and one hand was placed on the sword at his waist. His resolute face gave him the air of a martial arts hero.
The Great Envoy glanced at Lin Zhan, his sharp edge slightly concealed: "Sect Leader of the Myriad Swords Sect, it's been a long time."
Lin Zhan walked to Ye Fei's side, then raised his eyes and stared at the Great Envoy: "A few juniors are not worth the Great Envoy resorting to violence, are they?"
"The position of Holy Maiden has been vacant for too long. I am recruiting cultivators who are suitable to become Holy Maiden for the sake of the future of the Holy Church."
The Great Envoy slowly adjusted his sleeves, his gaze sweeping over Ye Fei's face. "I was indeed a little anxious just now, but I hope the Sect Leader of the Myriad Swords Sect will not interfere in the affairs of the Holy Sect."
Lin Zhan smiled dismissively: "Does it really matter to me?"
The Great Envoy's expression turned displeased: "Sect Leader of the Myriad Swords Sect, do you intend to make an enemy of the Holy Church?"
Lin Zhan smiled, but his sharp eagle eyes held no hint of amusement: "Forgive my bluntness, but your actions just now were not for recruiting talent, but rather to take the life of a junior."
"These juniors are the pride of Lingyun Kingdom. If the Great Divine Envoy were to inadvertently harm them, it would be a provocation against the prestige of Lingyun Kingdom—which would probably be very bad for the Holy Church's illustrious reputation."
The Great Divine Envoy stared at Lin Zhan expressionlessly.
Lin Zhan met his gaze, then lightly tapped the sword tucked at his waist with his fingers, the meaning of which was self-evident.
The atmosphere suddenly became extremely tense, and even the gentle breeze seemed to turn into a glint of swords.
At this moment, another melodious female voice, as sweet as silver bells, drifted over: "You warriors, all you ever talk about is fighting and killing, how utterly unrefined..."
The Great Envoy and Lin Zhan looked over at the same time. The Lotus Sect Leader walked in with light lotus steps. She was dressed in a flowing purple lotus robe, her black hair moved without wind, and her face was covered with a white veil, revealing only her beautiful eyes. The tassels under the white veil swayed with her steps, and a light purple bell was held on her fair wrist, from which a faint fragrance emanated.
She walked to the other side of Ye Fei, put her hand on the girl's shoulder, and said with a smile, "Don't be afraid, I'll protect you."
Ye Fei blinked. Who is this woman?
The Great Envoy's expression grew even colder: "Lotus Flower Sect Leader, are you also going to get involved in this mess?"
"I'm truly sorry, but I suddenly have a strong desire to invite this little girl to visit the Lotus Flower Sect." The Lotus Flower Sect Leader smiled gently, a hint of warning hidden in his pleasant voice: "Great Divine Envoy, you won't stop me, will you?"
The great envoy clenched his fists, his face growing increasingly grim.
First the Ten Thousand Swords Sect, then the Lotus Flower Sect... Ye Fei is truly capable to be protected by two major sects without any hesitation!
The Great Envoy took a deep breath, his sharp gaze locking onto Yu Muhan once more: "Alright... I'll wait for you for a year. After a year, I will send someone to Lingfeng Academy to pick you up and take you to the Holy Church!"
He threw down a sentence, angrily flicked his sleeve, and turned to leave.
As soon as the divine messenger left, the tense atmosphere immediately dissipated.
Yu Muhan was still scared, and if Ye Fei hadn't held her hand, she probably would have collapsed to the ground long ago.
After comforting Yu Muhan, Ye Fei immediately bowed to Lin Zhan and the sect leader of the Lotus Flower Sect, saying, "Junior Ye Fei thanks you two seniors for your help."
Seeing the girl's respectful attitude, a hint of relief flashed in Lin Zhan's eyes: "No need to thank me. Jing Shen has always told me that his captain is a very nice girl. I only realized today that Jing Shen was right."
