In front of so many people, Baili Changhuan had to consider each other's face a little.
It’s definitely not because he was afraid of being embarrassed by not being able to beat Yan Huailiu.
He tried to pull Yan Huailiu's collar, but Gu Xingyun immediately stood between them: "Junior Uncle, Master just came out of seclusion, tell me what you have to say slowly."
"Come here too!"
Baili Changhuan greeted the two men in a bad mood, chose a position where he could not be seen clearly by the group of disciples behind him, and then started to curse.
"You think your life is too comfortable, huh? You feel uncomfortable because no one's paying attention to you these days? Or maybe you didn't arrange a big party with thousands of people throwing flowers to welcome you during your retreat? What the hell are you thinking?"
Stunned by this barrage of scolding, Yan Huailiu blinked his eyes and said, "Junior brother, what are you talking about?"
"What did I say? Ha."
Baili Changhuan was so angry that he turned around on the spot and lowered his voice: "The smell of blood can marinate the back mountain. You still have the nerve to ask me what I am talking about? You slaughtered all the monsters within a hundred miles! And you still ask me what I am talking about? Yan Huailiu, there were hundreds of them!"
"Not that many, forty-six. Thirty-three of them are demonic beasts, and the rest are insane monsters. I didn't initiate the attack. I accidentally passed by there and they wanted to kill me. I was just defending myself."
Yan Huailiu spoke seriously, and tried to explain: "And they didn't attack for no reason. I checked, they are all vicious beasts. When they go crazy, they can destroy an entire sect. The corpses in the cave are piled up into a mountain. The disciples of the sect often go to the back mountain for training. If they accidentally run into them, they will be in great danger."
"Then I have to praise you." Baili Changhuan sneered, "You're quite clever. You even knew to take advantage of the dark and windy night to strike. But why didn't you see the barrier that was spread out in a circle? How could you not notice the spy hidden in the shadows?"
He was so angry that he punched the air with his fist. "Good fellow! In the middle of the night, a group of people fled from the back mountain to the Yuxu Sect, reeking of urine and blood. They were howling like ghosts on the competition stage. I was sleeping soundly when someone woke me up to deal with this mess! You're really capable."
The more he spoke, the angrier he became, and his anger went straight to Gu Xingyun: "Why didn't you stop him?! He had to go crazy in the middle of the night!"
Gu Xingyun felt guilty after being scolded and didn't dare to tell the reason.
No wonder Master was covered in blood when he came back. Did he have to thank those monsters for warding off disaster for him?
"Forty-six, among them at least twenty are of the Jindan level or above. You are really amazing, Sect Master Yan."
Baili Changhuan took a deep breath to calm himself down.
Yan Huailiu was very good at extracting the key points: "What spies? Why did they appear in the back mountain?"
Baili Changhuan rolled his eyes. "Several major sects have people here, and some minor ones also send people here. There must be eight hundred scoundrels coming here to gather information every year. Otherwise, do you think I usually go to the back mountain to plant vegetables?"
"Oh, you've worked hard." Yan Huailiu praised without a soul: "So? What does it have to do with them if I kill the ferocious beast?"
When it comes to eliminating harm for the people, Yan Huailiu never feels that he has done anything wrong.
Baili Changhuan forced an emotionless smile: "Because they painstakingly searched for those ferocious beasts and then released them here."
Yan Huailiu had a look of having eaten a big piece of melon, which made Baili Changhuan roll his eyes.
"That's how sects fight with each other. They can't win openly, so they have to find some way to cause trouble."
"I'm tired of seeing these inferior moves. The area they can enter is limited. Even if they let the monsters in, there are barriers to stop them, and they won't cause any harm to the sect disciples."
After Baili Changhuan finished explaining all that, he applauded Yan Huailiu.
"But it's hard to say what will happen in the future. After all, our Sect Master completely destroyed the barrier last night when he was showing off his power. Otherwise, those idiots wouldn't have had the chance to escape so far."
Baili Changhuan, who was woken up from a sweet dream in the middle of the night and had been dealing with some troubles for several hours, finally had the chance to get angry and he never stopped talking.
"You were promoted in the middle of the night, and you have nowhere to use your energy, right? You're upset that the promoted thundercloud couldn't hurt you, right? You're really proud, aren't you? You killed dozens of ferocious beasts when a group of people had to surround and slay one."
He resisted the urge to poke Yan Huailiu in the head. "Don't worry, no one's going to share this joy with you. A lot of those spies escaped last night, howling as they ran. They stood on broken swords facing the wind, reeking of urine. The sect disciples rode on cranes and vomited in the smoke, but they still couldn't catch up with them!"
"Don't worry. Before sunset, the news of your Sect Master Yan's successful promotion and the great increase in his cultivation level will spread throughout the entire cultivation world. This year, you don't need to send people to beat drums and gongs to force them to celebrate your birthday. Those who are wrong will definitely kneel down and send gifts to you half a month in advance."
Yan Huailiu was scolded so badly that he couldn't even raise his head. Although he still felt that he was not wrong, it seemed... that something was wrong?
Gu Xingyun coughed, stood in front of him awkwardly, and his tone softened a lot.
"Little Master, Master has done a good thing. This will actually make those people more afraid of us."
Yan Huailiu nodded desperately behind him.
No matter what conflicts there were between the two, at this moment, they formed a united front.
Gu Xingyun is his substitute!
"What do you know?! We're deliberately giving them a loophole to cause trouble just to prevent more trouble. We need them to be wary of us, but we don't need to stand against everyone."
Baili Changhuan felt worried when he saw the master and disciple. He felt sorry for the good connections his master had accumulated in the past. He scolded them bitterly, "This foundation passed down for thousands of years will be ruined by you two sooner or later!"
Yan Huailiu hid even more secretly, and only dared to speak behind Gu Xingyun's back: "How about I let you be the sect leader?"
"I won't do it! If I do it, you can live happily with your apprentice, right? You're dreaming!"
Baili Changhuan suddenly raised his voice and shouted.
The group of disciples who were waiting quietly not far away were startled and stood on tiptoe to look over here.
"Junior Master, please don't speak so loudly, Master..."
Gu Xingyun had just opened his mouth when Baili Changhuan punched him in the chest. "Master, Master, Master, you're the only one with a mouth! He killed dozens of monsters with ease. What's wrong with me speaking louder? Will it scare him to death? Get out! Get out! Both of you!"
After scolding him, he didn't forget to remind Yan Huailiu: "It's best to go back to your place and stay there honestly, don't run into those old guys who were notified to come and pick up the people and compensate them!"
After saying this, he was full of anger and called on the group of disciples behind him to deal with the ferocious beasts killed by Yan Huailiu.
Gu Xingyun stood there straight with an expressionless face, listening to the other disciples saying "Hello, Sect Master, Hello, Senior Brother Gu" as if they were checking in.
The head is about to fall off, and the people have all left.
Yan Huailiu was quiet the whole time, hiding behind Gu Xingyun with his eyes closed. He waited until he could no longer hear any sound, and finally breathed a sigh of relief.
“Master…”
Gu Xingyun lowered his voice: "My clothes are about to be torn."
