Time passed to the end of October.
By this time, the weather in the capital of Laifeng State was noticeably getting colder. A bleak north wind blew through the streets and alleys, bringing a slight chill.
At the same time, in the main hall of the Rakshasa Sect headquarters in Qixia Mountain, thousands of miles away, there was also a solemn atmosphere.
Bu Youran sat expressionlessly on the throne at the top, motionless like a statue, radiating a sense of majesty and cold arrogance. Silence reigned all around, with only the occasional whirring of the wind adding to the solemnity of the scene.
Bu Youran's eyes, cold and sharp, slowly swept over the disciples below. Feeling her gaze, they all lowered their heads, not daring to look directly at her. Finally, Bu Youran's gaze fell on Fu Bingyan, the leader of the Ghostly Sect, Qin Ran, the newly appointed leader of the Jade Maiden Sect, and Ji Liangchuan, the senior disciple of the Gentleman Sect.
"What's the situation outside?" Bu Youran asked leisurely, her voice low and calm, but carrying a huge pressure from a superior.
Fu Bingyan's face was sullen, her brows furrowed slightly, a flicker of anger in her eyes. She stepped forward, bowed slightly to Bu Youran, and said respectfully, "Master, the people of Lingxiao Palace are truly outrageous. They dared to lead a surprise attack on our headquarters. I will take them to meet them immediately!"
Qin Ran, standing by, also said with disdain, "That Lingxiao Palace's Young Palace Master, Chen Tangli, turned her love into hatred, and after failing to get the Young Sect Leader, she actually took her anger out on us, Luosha Sect. This is simply outrageous!"
"I think we should make an example of them and kill all the Lingxiao Palace disciples who sneaked into Qixia Mountain without leaving a single one alive! Let them know that we, the people of Luosha Sect, are not to be trifled with!" Her voice was extremely cold, full of contempt for the enemy.
Ji Liangchuan, the eldest disciple of the Junzi Sect, remained silent. He stood quietly to the side, his face expressionless. After all, Zuo An, the Sect Master, was not present, and unless the Sect Master mentioned him, he couldn't raise his voice and express his opinion.
However, from Ji Liangchuan's eyes, it can be seen that he has a deep understanding of the seriousness of the current situation.
"Calm down a bit." Bu Youran raised her hand to signal Fu Bingyan and the others to quiet down. "The attackers this time are just small fry. Just drive them away. There's no need to start a war."
Her eyes grew deeper, as if she were pondering something. "From what I know, Lingxiao Palace's Young Palace Master, Chen Tangli, has always been calm and composed. This time, she likely acted impulsively, provoked by someone. Our most urgent task is to identify the mastermind behind this attempt to stir up discord between our two sects."
"In addition, send someone to protect the medicinal garden on the mountain." Bu Youran added that the spiritual medicine of Luosha Sect is the key to cultivation and must not be lost.
"Yes, sir!" Fu Bingyan and the other two responded in unison.
Afterwards, Bu Youran asked them to leave. After everyone left, the corners of Bu Youran's mouth slightly raised, revealing a barely perceptible smile.
"Since you are so impatient, I will play with you..."
Bu Youran stood up and walked to the main hall entrance, gazing at the distant horizon thoughtfully. This battle had probably just begun. Next, she would face not only provocations from external enemies, but also conflicts within the sect itself.
The next morning, Bu Youran received news that all the disciples of Lingxiao Palace who had sneaked into Qixia Mountain had been expelled.
However, Bu Youran did not feel relieved, because she keenly sensed that the real crisis might be hidden in the dark.
This matter involved a dispute between two major sects. In order to find out who was behind it, Bu Youran decided to go down the mountain to investigate. She took a few close confidants and quietly left Luosha Sect.
Soon after, Bu Youran and Ning'er arrived at a prosperous town. This town was a gathering place for people from the underworld, and it was well-informed, making it easy to find out anything.
Bu Youran casually walked into a pub, ordered a few side dishes, and then listened quietly to what the people around him were talking about.
Suddenly, she heard a familiar name - Chen Tangli.
"Have you heard? The Young Palace Master of Lingxiao Palace, Chen Tangli, was actually beaten out by the Luosha Sect!"
"That's right, I heard it's because she's infatuated with the young leader of the Rakshasa Sect!"
“Ah, that Chen Tangli is really pitiful… But where did she go after leaving Luoshamen?”
"I don't know. Some say she returned to Lingxiao Palace, but others say she's missing..."
Hearing these words, Bu Youran's brows furrowed slightly. She hadn't expected that after leaving Luoshamen, Chen Tangli hadn't returned to Lingxiao Palace. So, where had Chen Tangli gone?
After some thought, Bu Youran had the answer in his mind: Chen Tangli might have gone to the capital to find Zuo An.
After all, Zuo An is the person that Chen Tangli loves but cannot have, and that is also the reason why she attacked the Luoshamen headquarters.
Thinking of this, Bu Youran's face suddenly darkened.
Zuo An was about to give birth, and if she were to face the love-mad Chen Tangli, it would be extremely dangerous. Moreover, the child in Zuo An's belly was not only Bu Youran's grandson, but also the future heir of their Luosha Sect, so there was absolutely no room for error.
To ensure Zuo'an's safety, Bu Youran decided to personally lead a group to the capital. She wanted to protect her son and his pregnant granddaughter, no, her legitimate granddaughter!
Two days later, October 30th.
In the early morning, the sunlight softly shines through the window onto the floor of the Xiaoyaoju laboratory, forming patches of mottled light and shadow.
After having breakfast, Zuo An was concentrating on studying the hidden weapons in his hands, as if he and these hidden weapons were the only ones in the world.
