Chapter 173: Chapter 170 Gather TogetherThe attack on Green Leaf Valley and the appearance of the puppet demon were nothing more than an interlude. By the next day, no one mentioned last night’s events, since even a large-scale mobilization in the end had not dealt any substantial blow to the Black Demon Sect, and discussing it was pointless. On the contrary, Green Leaf Valley’s disciples had suffered heavy losses, but fortunately, the elite disciples leading the team were all unharmed; otherwise, Green Leaf Valley would have suffered a significant loss this time. After this attack, the remaining manpower of Green Leaf Valley could no longer make any difference, so they joined forces with the people from Heavenly Martial Hall. After all, Heavenly Martial Hall had not deployed many people on this operation either, and by absorbing Green Leaf Valley’s manpower, they could still add a considerable weight to their force. Despite having slept poorly the night before, the next morning, the people from Heavenly Martial Hall set out as planned, heading toward the location of the secret cave. Over the course of the night, the news had spread, and it seemed the other major sects were also aware of the cave. They would not stand idly by since everyone was aiming for the Heavenly Origin Ancient Seed. Now that this cave had been discovered, it could very well be where the Heavenly Origin Ancient Seed was hidden, and no sect would pass up such an opportunity. By the time Ye Xuan and his party arrived at the cave’s location, the mountaintop was already teeming with figures. As expected, the people from the major sects had gathered, and apart from the Spring and Autumn Sword Sect, which had suffered heavy losses, both the Wildfire Sect and the Earth Evil Sect had already arrived. Besides the major sect powers, there were also various third-rate forces and families from Great Yuan Country converging here. Although their chances of obtaining the Heavenly Origin Ancient Seed were slim, the temptation of the seed was laid out before them. Why would they not come to try their luck? If by some stroke of luck, they acquired the seed, their power could flourish, perhaps even reaching the level of First Grade, thereafter soaring to great heights, dominating a nation was no longer a pipe dream. The arrival of the people from Heavenly Martial Hall naturally attracted the attention of many, which soon caused a stir. As the most powerful sect force in the Tiannan Region, even if only one person from Heavenly Martial Hall came, the deterrent force was still not to be underestimated. However, those gazes only stayed on the others for a moment before they all fell upon Ling Qianxue, then were instantly dazzled by her peerless beauty. Although her beauty had already been known throughout the major sects, many people who saw her in person for the first time, couldn’t help but be amazed by her appearance. "Hehe, it’s been a long time since I’ve seen Junior Sister Ling. She’s become even more like a fairy, and her cultivation has even advanced to Second Grade Martial Sect. Truly, she is the peerless genius of Heavenly Martial Hall." Just as the people from Heavenly Martial Hall had arrived, a handsome young man dressed in green robe appeared in their line of sight, wearing a smile as gentle as a spring breeze. However, a flash of intense passion crossed the depths of his eyes the moment he saw Ling Qianxue. "Who is this guy?" Seeing the handsome green-robed man, Ye Xuan frowned. Although the latter had hidden that brief intensity in his eyes quite well, it had not escaped Ye Xuan’s notice. This guy, who seemed like a perfect gentleman on the surface, was likely not a good person at all. "Song Ming, the chief true disciple of Xingyun Pavilion, has been coveting Junior Sister Ling for a long time. Unfortunately for him, a toad lusting after a swan’s meat. In terms of strength and status, he is far from matching up," said Leng Ruofeng, standing next to Ye Xuan with a cold laugh. "I see," Ye Xuan nodded, suddenly understanding. With that explanation, Song Ming’s behavior was not surprising at all. However, it seemed he might need to be on secret guard. After all, those who appear cultured and genteel on the surface often have methods behind the scenes that are more difficult to deal with than the cruelest of killers. "Quit the useless chatter, Song Ming. Yesterday, two of our Heavenly Martial Hall elders came to investigate the site, only to be attacked by your Xingyun Pavilion people who seized the cave. This forces me to regard it as a challenge to our Heavenly Martial Hall," Ling Qianxue’s pretty face was exceedingly icy. She hadn’t sought them out over yesterday’s incident, but that didn’t mean she was willing to let it slide. This was a matter of Heavenly Martial Hall’s reputation; if they couldn’t even muster a fart when confronted, it would be utterly disgraceful. "It’s all a misunderstanding, all of it. Junior Sister Ling, our Xingyun Pavilion wouldn’t dare to conflict with people from Heavenly Martial Hall. The incident yesterday happened entirely without our knowledge. Look, now that the news of the cave has been made public, you see, my Xingyun Pavilion has no intention of monopolizing this cave. What’s the point of deliberately injuring your people?" Upon hearing this, Song Ming immediately waved his hand and spoke with a smile. "Sneaky little man." Leng Ruofeng let out a cold snort. Song Ming’s words seemed to suggest that the cave’s discovery wasn’t spread by their Heavenly Martial Hall but was voluntarily disclosed by Xingyun Pavilion. With just a single sentence, potential accusations seemed neutralized. One had to admit it was extremely cunning. However, Ye Xuan next to her was somewhat surprised. He was astonished by Song Ming’s tactic; indeed, it was clever. If Xingyun Pavilion still intended to monopolize the cave today, then surely all the forces gathered here would be pointing fingers at Xingyun Pavilion. But with what he said, the other sects had no reason to take action. Hearing these words, Ling Qianxue’s gaze also darkened. But, just as she was about to retort, an impatient voice rang out, "You two kids, set aside any personal grievances for now. Our top priority should be to break the cave’s prohibition, not listen to you bicker here." The voice spread, and it made Ye Xuan shift his gaze toward the source. There, atop a nearby hill, was an old man with a hooked nose, dressed in a red robe, suspended in mid-air, his face showing impatience. "Ouyang Lie? Aren’t you an inner elder of the Wildfire Sect? What are you doing here? This action of yours is a violation of the rules set by the Six Great Sects." As her eyes fell on the hooked-nose elder, Ling Qianxue’s expression turned to one of surprise, and then her voice deepened. The strong contenders from the other powers also looked at the hooked-nose elder with some astonishment. Ouyang Lie was indeed a well-known inner elder of the Wildfire Sect. What was he doing here at Wanxiang Mountain? According to the rules, besides the local Xingyun Pavilion, elder-level powerhouses from the other five great sects weren’t allowed here. However, Ouyang Lie showed no signs of being flustered, calmly saying, "I made a small mistake a few days ago and was stripped of my position as an inner elder, demoted to an outer elder. Or is Heavenly Martial Hall now meddling in Wildfire Sect’s internal affairs?" As soon as he spoke these words, the crowd, which had been buzzing with commotion, suddenly fell silent, clearly at a loss for words. "Damn it, these people, one is more shameless than the next." Next to Ye Xuan, Leng Ruofeng couldn’t help but curse out loud. He couldn’t stand it any longer. These so-called righteous sects were each more despicable and shameless than the last, resorting to such vile tactics. They truly had reached a state of shamelessness.
