Chapter 74 The central figure is the sober Xuanqi master.
Lin Bozhou reluctantly stayed and listened to them continue talking.
Sect Leader Xuanqi secretly breathed a sigh of relief, looked at Sect Leader Jinyang, and motioned him to speak.
Master Jinyang really didn't want to provoke this disciple anymore, so he turned back to Fu Lanting.
His voice steadied.
"Even if you're unwilling to swear another hundred-year alliance, this matter must come to an end. Fu Lanting, you disliked Lian Yueqing today and attacked him. If you dislike me someday and attack me, won't this continue? The Seven Great Immortal Sects will be in chaos. It's fine if you don't sign the alliance. Just swear to never again fight over such trivial matters, and I'll leave immediately."
"good."
The headmaster stood up and walked forward into the hall. His expression was calm, without any fluctuations. His voice was as calm as the sound of gold striking jade: "Defeat me, and I will grant you my promise."
After saying this, he glanced at Master Xuanqi and smiled faintly, without any warmth: "It's okay if you come along."
In an instant, the two masters' faces looked very ugly.
After a moment of silence, Sect Leader Xuanqi sighed slightly and took a step to the side. He said in a steady voice, "I'm just a lobbyist. If you don't want me to do it, I can't do it either."
It’s not that he thinks that the two of them will still be defeated by Fu Lanting if they join forces, but this battle will definitely not be just a competition, and it has nothing to do with the Xuanqi Immortal Sect. He doesn’t want to be too deeply involved in this matter.
Even though he risked his life for Lian Yueqing, the relationship between them is not that good yet.
But when he retreated, Sect Leader Jin Yang's expression became even uglier.
It would be fine if two people were together, but if he faced Fu Lanting alone, no matter how arrogant he was, he would not be sure of winning. So he was stuck in this position.
After all, the world of cultivation is based on strength. If you are not as skilled as others but still want them to agree to your demands, you will be ridiculed if you tell others about it.
For a moment, the entire hall fell silent.
In such a silent atmosphere, Jiang Qiying, who had been standing in the corner without saying a word, suddenly spoke.
There was a faint smile on his face, but it was without any warmth. At first glance, that smile was somewhat like Fu Lanting's.
Jiang Qiying bowed and saluted before slowly saying, "Since this is a matter between Master Jiyue and my master, I believe that Master Jiyue should come in person. Could it be that Master Jiyue knows he's being disrespectful and that's why he's unwilling to come?"
Sect Leader Jinyang frowned slightly and was about to scold him, but Sect Leader Xuanqi next to him secretly pulled him back.
He looked over in confusion, only to see that Master Xuanqi had a smile on his face. He didn't treat Jiang Qiying harshly, but rather with a somewhat pleasant expression.
He first praised: "Young friend Jiang is quick-witted and what he said makes sense. However, Brother Lian Yue is injured and needs to recover, so he can't come in person. Young friend Jiang is the successor of the Qiling Immortal Sect. If you have any opinions, you can also share them."
Sect Leader Jin Yang became even more puzzled.
Jiang Qiying is good, and no one of his generation can match him, but a genius is a genius, a strong man is a strong man, and countless people die along the way. As the head of a sect, he does not need to be polite even to the successor of the immortal sect, so he really doesn't understand why Lou Xuanyin is so polite.
Master Xuanqi sighed inwardly. Seeing his unhappy expression, he could only transmit a message: "Brother Qin, haven't you heard about what happened before?"
"What's up?"
"It's about Fu Lanting a few days ago."
"So what?"
The Jinyang Sect Master spoke in a harsh voice, a hint of anger in his voice transmission: "After all, it's nothing more than the Qiling Immortal Sect's scandal. Even if I mention it, it's disgusting. Do you think you should look down on this junior because of these things? Even if he and Fu Lanting are enemies, he doesn't have the qualifications."
Master Xuanqi felt a bit of a headache. "Brother Qin, the most important thing in this matter isn't Fu Lanting, nor his disciple. Haven't you noticed? They're all entangled by Lin Bozhou's disciple. That Jiang Zhaoyue, rumor has it, is in love with Jiang Qiying. There was something a little strange about the way that woman looked at you just now."
Sect Leader Jin Yang was startled, and subconsciously looked over in the direction he was talking, only to see Jiang Zhaoyue's eyebrows curved, and the curve of his lips deep, as if he was smiling deeply.
The smile was gentle and touching, but his master-level perception prevented him from sensing any kindness in it.
I could hear the words that Master Xuanqi continued to say.
"That woman is a bit cunning. She seems silent, but in fact, she is the center of everything. You should just listen to what people say about plundering and robbery. It's best not to provoke her. Lian Yueqing has been injured three times, it's hard to say that she has nothing to do with it."
The most important thing is that Lian Yueqing has suffered so many losses, but he is still connected with that woman and entangled with her. This is a very rare thing in the past of Master Jiyue.
Jiang Qiying was sandwiched between two or three immortal sect leaders and was still able to retain his place, which showed that he had some ability, or he had some status in the woman's heart. Fu Lanting might not be willing to stand up for his disciple, but if the woman took action, Qin Ziyan would probably suffer.
Master Xuanqi glanced at Fu Lanting and Lin Bozhou with a subtle look, knowing that they had no chance of winning.
Fu Lanting's fighting power is unparalleled. Lin Bozhou is not as strong as him, but he can at least rank third or fourth among the seven great masters. If he doesn't help these two people, it will be no problem for him to keep Qin Ziyan today.
He saw it clearly and soberly, and did not look down on the two people present just because they were younger than him.
After being reminded by him, Sect Leader Jin Yang immediately understood what he meant. However, the feeling of being strangled by an ant-like junior was not pleasant. However, he was not a reckless person, so he just kept a calm face and said nothing.
Jiang Qiying didn't know whether he understood what was going on or didn't notice his displeasure. He still had a faint smile on his face and spoke slowly and calmly.
"Since the two sect leaders and the Jiyue Sect Leader are unwilling to fight my master, I can serve on their behalf. If the younger generations of the Xuanqi, Jiyue, and Jinyang Sects can win, this alliance can be achieved."
When he said this, Fu Lanting glanced at him with a deep gaze, without any intention of getting close to him, but the uncle glanced at Jiang Zhaoyue who was listening with a smile beside him, and did not speak.
And if he doesn't deny it, it means he agrees.
Lin Bozhou was more direct than him. Seeing that his disciples had no objection, he said, "Okay."
But this proposal did not make the two masters on the opposite side feel any better.
Sect Leader Xuanqi's expression was unclear, as if some new chips had been added to the matter he had already decided. Sect Leader Jinyang's pupils twitched slightly, and he fell silent.
The feud between master and apprentice, and between brothers, is a matter of disintegration no matter how you look at it. At least on the surface, the relationship between these people is not close at all, but at this moment they can reach a consensus in an instant.
This is obviously not a good thing for others.
As for the young disciples...
The Jinyang Sect Leader's eyes flickered slightly, and his expression returned to calm. He said, "But..."
"no."
The one who spoke faster than him was Master Xuanqi.
He refused without any hesitation.
"Brother Lou?"
Master Xuanqi looked helpless and glanced at him, but said firmly, "No, if you have any other good ideas, try another one."
Sect Leader Jin Yang frowned and sent him a voice message: "Brother Lou, what do you mean? Do you really look down on your own genius? Besides, there are ways to deal with the younger generation."
Lou Xuanyin really had a headache at this moment.
"Brother Qin, among the younger generation, the leader is Jiang Qiying, followed by Luo Huaiyin. They are on par with each other. Next in line are Jiang Zhaoyue, Tian Liuyun, Yang Xuelan, and so on. The geniuses of our two sects can only be ranked second. What can you use to fight them?"
Without waiting for Sect Leader Jinyang to refute him, he continued, "You mean to say that you're secretly supporting Luo Huaiyin? Then do you know that Luo Huaiyin also has a crush on Jiang Zhaoyue? Just listen to the rumors, they're all fake."
Many people know that the competition for the next leader of the Yunmiao Immortal Sect is fierce. Jiang Zhaoyue, as the leader's disciple, is extremely talented, so it should be a natural progression. However, the Yunmiao Immortal Sect also has a second-generation disciple who has a higher cultivation level and debuted earlier. Having two leader-level disciples is very rare among the seven major sects.
Therefore, all the immortal sect members with higher cultivation levels knew that these two disciples were incompatible and were almost killing each other.
However, rumors are just rumors after all.
However, Master Xuanqi knew very well that Luo Huaiyin's kissing speed might be even faster than that of the master and disciple in front of him.
What can the younger generation use to fight against others?
Master Jinyang was stunned for a moment, then subconsciously asked, "Is this true? Is this disciple of Lin Bozhou the reincarnation of some immortal? How do you know so much?"
"It doesn't matter."
Master Xuanqi brushed aside his words and said, "In my opinion, if you really want to achieve your wish, you might as well start with Lin Bozhou's disciple. Once you convince her, the alliance will naturally be reached."
"Brother Lou, that's easy for me to say. How can I convince that woman? When the six great sect leaders gathered in the Ninth Heaven that day, they could tell that this woman was no ordinary person."
Sect Leader Jinyang sighed in his voice transmission, but Sect Leader Xuanqi's words gave him some advice.
He glanced at Jiang Zhaoyue's gentle and well-behaved face, cleared his throat, and put on a rare good expression. He said gently, "After all, this matter is all caused by Brother Fu and Brother Lian Yue. We really can't do anything about it. Since you all disagree, then, little friend Jiang, do you have a different opinion?"
It would have been better if he didn't show a gentle expression. His softened attitude at this moment instead attracted the attention of everyone except Master Xuanqi.
Qin Ziyan felt for a moment what it was like to have a thorn in his back.
Especially Lin Bozhou's gaze, it felt like he would suddenly attack and kill someone at any moment.
His face froze for a moment, and then he slowly put away his deliberate gentleness, returning to his previous expressionless look.
"Friend Jiang, do you have a different opinion?"
Jiang Zhaoyue blinked her eyes, looking very indifferent, not at all like the central figure in those rumors. She had a faint smile on her face, and her voice was as soft as the flowing sound of a piano.
"In fact, I also think that signing a hundred-year alliance is a good thing."
Her words were truly unexpected. Before the two masters could express their delight, they heard her soft voice slowly say:
"I have two friends. Senior Sister Yang Xuelan is exceptionally talented and capable. Jiyue Xianzong couldn't find anyone more suitable than her to succeed Senior Lianyue. Senior Brother Tian Liuyun is cheerful, gentle, and calm. I have always felt that he is the most suitable candidate for the younger generation of Taiyuan Xianzong."
Jiang Zhaoyue's eyes were smiling and her tone was gentle, making it impossible to tell that her words, spoken so gently, could completely change the current situation of the seven immortal sects.
