Chapter 350 There is no such thing as a person who is born to be possessed by a demon!
In order to enhance Shao Wenqin's ability to save her life, Si Yuan repeatedly taught her over the years to put saving her life first and never take risks.
After all, the power of the devil star in Shao Wenqin's body meant that she only needed to control this power step by step to become the strongest person in the world. She didn't need to hone herself on the brink of life and death, and she didn't need to take risks.
But now it seems that he has taught too much. Shao Wenqin seems to have gone a little beyond Si Yuan's expectations in the way of survival.
Si Yuan hesitated for a while, but still did not show up. He was just too concerned about his life, so he thought it was not a big deal, so he would wait and see.
Shao Wenqin hid his true self very well, and only controlled his puppet substitute to walk around in the world of immortal cultivation. Even the puppet substitute was secretive and tried not to let people know his true identity.
Feng Yuxu, who escaped back to Yunxiao Sect, was not a person who played by the rules. The first thing he did when he escaped back to Yunxiao Sect was to find his master, the Yunxiao Sect Master, to report: "Master, I found the person who was suspected to be the reincarnation of the Demon Star, but I didn't get to meet him. He was protected by a very strong formation master. I was trapped in the formation without even meeting him. I finally escaped using the teleportation talisman, and even wasted an extra formation search disk..."
Feng Yuxu described his action as being extremely dangerous and terrifying. In his description, he had gone through untold hardships to escape. Even though Sect Master Yunxiao was skeptical, he felt that his eldest disciple had worked really hard.
Therefore, the leader of the Yunxiao Sect did not treat him unfairly. Not only did he reimburse the relocation talisman, he also reimbursed the formation-finding disk, and rewarded him with some resources for recuperation, allowing Feng Yuxu to go back and recuperate.
After Feng Yuxu left, Sect Master Yunxiao suddenly realized that although this guy said that he had worked very hard, it was an indisputable fact that he had failed in his mission. Moreover, thinking back now, it seemed that he had not collected any useful information.
In the end, Feng Yuxu didn't make any contribution, but I gave him so many good things instead?
The leader of the Yunxiao Sect could only curse his cunning eldest disciple in his heart, but he couldn't really punish him. Instead, he had to personally investigate the reincarnation of the evil star based on the information provided by Feng Yuxu.
Although Feng Yuxu had not seen the reincarnation of the Demon Star himself, he would definitely not have made the wrong choice by finding the person based on the secret method of blood relationship. Moreover, it was impossible for the formation master to appear out of thin air. Maybe he was really related to the Demon Star Cult as Feng Yuxu said.
If he sends someone to investigate at this time, it would very likely be sending that person to his death, so it would be better for him to do it himself.
As the leader of the Yunxiao Sect, the Yunxiao Sect Master is of course very powerful. He is a strong man at the peak of the Nascent Soul Stage and the strongest man only second to the Supreme Elder at the Spirit Transformation Stage.
After all, once he breaks through to the Spirit Transformation Stage, he will resign from the position of Sect Leader, take the position of Grand Elder, and practice with peace of mind.
In the world of immortal cultivation where strength is respected, even the number one sect, the Yunxiao Sect, puts strength first.
Although he seems to have great power as the sect leader, in fact, he has to follow the sect's rules and regulations, and there are several supreme elders above him to suppress him. Although the supreme elders do not care about things and do not hold power, in fact, when the supreme elders speak, no one in the entire Yunxiao Sect dares to disobey.
Even he, the sect leader, could be dismissed with just a word from the supreme elder.
As the leader of the Yunxiao Sect, if he wants to use some of the sect's resources, he has to apply to the supreme elders and exchange them for merits. However, the supreme elders provide support for him by the entire sect, and there are no resources in the sect's treasury that they cannot use.
However, when one reaches the God Transformation Stage, most of the resources in the sect's treasury are of little use to them. The resources in the sect's treasury may not be as valuable as the personal resources of the supreme elders themselves. Most of the time, the supreme elders in the God Transformation Stage stuff the resources they cannot use into the sect's treasury and give them to the sect.
The leader of the Yunxiao Sect dreams of breaking through that bottleneck and becoming a supreme elder in the Spirit Transformation Stage.
It's a pity that he has been stuck at this bottleneck for hundreds of years and has been unable to break through. Now he can only try his best to find ways to make merit, hoping to exchange his merits for the guidance of the Supreme Elder, so that he can break through successfully one day.
So when it came to finding the reincarnation of the Demon Star, Sect Master Yunxiao first sent his younger disciple Tan Yunyuan to do it. When the younger disciple failed, he sent his older disciple Feng Yuxu to do it. When Feng Yuxu also failed, he did it himself.
He never thought of giving this good opportunity to make a contribution to people from other elders' factions.
As the leader of a sect, Master Yunxiao cannot go out at will, but if he really leaves the sect privately, no one can stop him.
After all, the supreme elders are either traveling or practicing in seclusion, and no one cares about anything, let alone whether the sect leader sneaks out to play in secret.
There were not many sect affairs that needed to be handled personally by Sect Leader Yunxiao, so he announced that he would be in seclusion for a short period of time and quietly went down the mountain.
The first stop for the leader of the Yunxiao Sect was the sacred mountain where Si Yuan and Shao Wenqin lived in seclusion. He first observed the battlefield where Feng Yuxu was fighting with the man behind the scenes who was most likely the reincarnation of the Demon Star.
However, the results of his observation left him speechless.
Because apart from the traces of formation here, there are no other signs of battle at all.
If Feng Yuxu hadn't said in person that their battlefield was here, Sect Master Yunxiao would have thought he had found the wrong place.
When the leader of the Yunxiao Sect thought about the character of his most accomplished disciple Feng Yuxu, he basically guessed why there were not many signs of fighting on this battlefield. It was very likely that Feng Yuxu was so busy escaping that he didn't even have a head-on battle with the person in charge behind the scenes.
After all, Feng Yuxu likes to launch surprise attacks, use numbers to bully the weak, not fight a battle that is sure to win, and protect his comrades in front of him...
Sect Leader Yunxiao: “…” The more he thought about it, the angrier he got.
When the Master of the Yunxiao Sect thought that the successor to the sect leader he wanted to appoint in the future would turn out to be of such a character, he felt his eyes go dark and he could not see the future of the Yunxiao Sect.
But don't choose Feng Yuxu as the successor to the clan leader...
Sect Master Yunxiao looked at his other disciples and found that none of them were as good as Feng Yuxu. At least Feng Yuxu was strong enough, talented enough, smart enough, cunning enough, and knew how to protect his life and live long.
Among his remaining disciples, even Tan Yunyuan is considered outstanding, otherwise why would he choose Tan Yunyuan first when selecting the person to execute the task? It’s because except for Feng Yuxu, the other disciples are not even as good as the young disciple Tan Yunyuan.
Of course, the Yunxiao Sect would not have only these few disciples to choose from.
But Sect Master Yunxiao also has his own selfish motives. He does not want to choose the successor to the sect from other elders' factions, otherwise after he abdicates, it will be difficult for him to receive preferential treatment in the sect.
It's like an abdicated emperor in the mortal world. If the next emperor is his own son or grandson, with whom he has a good relationship, then he, the abdicated emperor, can still hold some power and receive good preferential treatment. But if the next emperor is adopted from the royal family, he has his own parents, and only cares about face for him, the abdicated emperor, and doesn't want to be filial to him at all, then he, the abdicated emperor, will sooner or later become a clay statue and can only look after the new emperor's mood.
If the Master of the Yunxiao Sect could abdicate on the grounds that he had broken through to the Spirit Transformation Stage and became the Grand Elder, then he would naturally not be afraid that his successor would not be his direct disciple. He could choose anyone. After all, as a Grand Elder at the Spirit Transformation Stage, who would dare to neglect him?
But Sect Master Yunxiao did not have the confidence to break through to the Spirit Transformation Stage. The position of Sect Master had a term limit and it was impossible for him to hold it alone for a long time. He had to abdicate when the time came.
This succession system was established to prevent the Yunxiao Sect from becoming a one-man show and to ensure that the sect does not become a family empire.
With several supreme elders in the Spirit Transformation Stage in charge, no sect leader dared to defy the system, let alone do anything small, and could only act within the scope of the rules.
The Yunxiao Sect Master is just an ordinary current sect master among dozens of generations of Yunxiao Sect. It is normal for him to have his own little thoughts and plans for his future.
Sect Master Yunxiao sighed slightly, still thinking in his heart that perhaps he could accept a more outstanding disciple. After all, the current batch of disciples were not very reliable and the possibility of them becoming successors was slim.
Although his disciples are nominally more noble than the elders' disciples and have a greater chance of inheriting the position of sect master, Yunxiao Sect is a sect after all, not a noble family, and there is no distinction between direct and collateral lines. The elders' disciples and his disciples have the same inheritance rights. Whoever is more outstanding and has the ability to surpass others will naturally be the next successor to the sect master.
However, at present, Yunxiao Sect has not yet produced a peerless genius who can suppress all the heroes. Although there are some outstanding disciples in the elders' faction, they are not outstanding enough to suppress the disciples of the sect master's faction.
But this has become a rather troubling problem for Sect Master Yunxiao. As the sect master, his disciples are unable to overpower the disciples of other elders with their absolute superiority. This will make people uneasy and make the elders' factions eager to covet his position as the sect master.
Otherwise, the leader of the Yunxiao Sect would not have been so secretive and secretly come out to find the reincarnation of the Demon Star in person, just to make a contribution.
Sect Master Yunxiao temporarily suppressed his worries and carefully searched the entire sacred mountain.
The traces of Si Yuan and Shao Wenqin's secluded residence in Lingshan cannot be cleaned up by Shao Wenqin controlling her puppet to pack up her belongings, especially the spiritual charm left after some formations were very obvious.
After all, Shao Wenqin was still too young and lacked experience in cleaning up the mess. He was no match for the old fox like the Yunxiao Sect Master who had lived for hundreds or even nearly a thousand years.
So the leader of the Yunxiao Sect naturally found some clues and traces, and realized that there were originally two people living in this sacred mountain.
Feng Yuxu's previous guess that the reincarnation of the Demon Star had a protector by his side has now been confirmed.
