Chapter 641: Chapter 634: News
Leading Ye Qingqing and Zhang Tianci back to a grand hall at the mountain summit,
Chen Hai exchanged some pleasantries with the two before finally addressing the main subject.
“During your seclusion, quite a few things have happened within our Sect.”
“Ye Fangxian, after returning to Medicine King Valley, forcibly suppressed the former Valley Master, Yan Song, and put him under confinement.”
“Now, Ye Fangxian has taken over as the Sect Master of Medicine King Valley, and he plans to merge the Valley into our Bloodthirsty Sect.”
“Once this matter is completed, within the territory of West Barbarian Mountain, Medicine King Valley will cease to exist, and instead, there will be a new Medicine King Hall within our Bloodthirsty Sect.”
“For this endeavor, Ye Fangxian has really exerted a lot of effort, eliminating dissent within Medicine King Valley, where heads have literally rolled.”
“Half a year ago, the relocation of Medicine King Valley was fully initiated, but considering the thousands in the Medicine King Valley and the various foundations they have built over many years, completing all relocation necessities will certainly require a substantial amount of time.”
“Over here…”
As she spoke, Ye Qingqing stopped, her gaze falling onto Chen Hai.
She was well aware that Ye Fangxian, defeated by Zhang Tianci, had sought to become a disciple under Chen Hai but was refused.
Now, Ye Fangxian, having suppressed the original Valley Master Yan Song and forcibly taken over the leadership of Medicine King Valley, further relocating it and merging it into the Bloodthirsty Sect to become part of it,
was clearly mimicking Zhang Tianci, attempting to show his sincerity in a bid to be accepted by Chen Hai.
Ye Qingqing was naturally very clear about these affairs.
At this moment, she brought them up to Chen Hai to see what his reaction would be.
“Ye Fangxian has become the Master of Medicine King Valley, and he plans to merge it into the Bloodthirsty Sect?” Chen Hai was startled.
He had just been wondering why he hadn’t seen Ye Fangxian attempting to become his disciple again, and what the reason could be.
He truly hadn’t expected Ye Fangxian to execute such a significant action, planning to merge Medicine King Valley into the Bloodthirsty Sect.
In response, he really found himself both amused and astonished.
He had been prepared – if Ye Fangxian, the reincarnation of an Innate Spiritual Treasure, were to appear again and plead to become his disciple, he would have reluctantly accepted him into his tutelage.
“Right!” Ye Qingqing nodded.
After a slight pause, she added, “After all, Ye Fangxian is a True Immortal-level cultivator and is quite powerful at the level of True Immortals and True Demons.”
“He has worked very hard and made many sacrifices in order to become your disciple.”
“If possible, I think you could give him a chance.”
“If you think he cannot be trusted, at worst, just make him a disciple in name only, without passing on any legacies to him!”
After saying this, Ye Qingqing halted, her eyes resting upon Chen Hai’s face as she quietly awaited his response.
With her advocating on his behalf, she felt that Chen Hai would not oppose the idea.
After all, she knew that when Chen Hai had taken Zhang Tianci as a disciple years ago, it was initially only in name.
It wasn’t until nearly a century passed that Zhang Tianci, the First Disciple, was finally recognized by him and had the Divine Skills of Black Water Mysterious Yellow Sword Finger passed down to him.
The situation with Ye Fangxian seemed somewhat similar to that of Zhang Tianci back then.
Back then, since Chen Hai was willing to take in Zhang Tianci as a disciple, taking in another disciple like Ye Fangxian didn’t seem like a big deal.
“Qingqing, we’ve been through thick and thin together over the years. Since you’ve asked for my help on behalf of Ye Fangxian, I must honor your request!”
“After the matter of Medicine King Valley merging into the Bloodthirsty Sect is settled, tell Ye Fangxian to come directly to me.”
Chen Hai smiled and nodded in response.
Even if Ye Qingqing hadn’t come here, he had already decided in his heart to take in Ye Fangxian as a disciple.
At this moment, his promise was merely going with the flow.
Ye Qingqing, unaware of these details, felt greatly honored by Chen Hai’s promise and gave him a charming smile.
If it weren’t for Zhang Tianci being there like a third wheel, she might have hugged Chen Hai and kissed him fiercely on his cheeks.
“Besides the matters of Ye Fangxian and Medicine King Valley, recently, our territory in West Barbarian Mountain has not been very peaceful.”
“Tianci, you personally went to investigate Giant Willow City. You know better what happened there.”
“This matter, you should report to your Master!”
Ye Qingqing, her radiant smile fading, looked at Zhang Tianci and directly instructed him.
“Yes, Master’s wife!” Zhang Tianci nodded and responded.
Facing Chen Hai, he bowed and said, “When I arrived at Giant Willow City, the city had already been completely destroyed, turned into ruins.”
“Giant Willow City is adjacent to the Ten Thousand Mountains. Our territory in West Barbarian Mountain is surrounded by sea on three sides. To travel to other territories, using Giant Willow City as a transit point and crossing the Ten Thousand Mountains is the only path.”
“Originally, Giant Willow City was quite prosperous. After all, although ordinary cultivators cannot cross the Ten Thousand Mountains, there are countless spirit flowers and spirit grasses in the mountains. The materials gathered from the demon beasts living there can be used for artifact refining, and their flesh can be used as sustenance for cultivation.”
“In our territory, among those cities, only Giant Willow City had more cultivators than ordinary people.”
“Such a strong city suddenly turning into ruins attracted many cultivators to investigate.”
“According to the information I received, a month ago, countless demon beasts surged out of the Ten Thousand Mountains, among them several True Level Demon Beasts.”
“Facing the onslaught of these demon beasts, Giant Willow City only held out for a few two-hours before it was breached and completely turned into ruins under the rampage of the demon beasts.”
Zhang Tianci, seemingly recalling the tragic scenes he witnessed when he visited Giant Willow City, showed a face of distress and heaved a long sigh.
Following that, he continued, “After breaking through Giant Willow City, those demon beasts then retreated back into the Ten Thousand Mountains.”
“This situation is very unusual, almost as if there’s some formidable presence controlling these demon beasts.”
“Merely True Level Demon Beasts, they do not possess the capability to command all demon beasts.”
“At that time, among the people who went to investigate Giant Willow City, besides me, there were several True Immortals and True Demons. Although I do not know which powers these individuals came from, their strength was undeniable.”
“Whether it was me or the other True Immortal and True Demon levels, we all speculated that something major must have happened within the Ten Thousand Mountains.”
“Perhaps, among these Demon Clans, a Demon King has emerged, it’s quite possible.”
“Otherwise, these abnormal actions of theirs cannot be explained!”
