After Favorability Is Maxed

273 Without You, Who Am I Going to Ride in the Future?

The Jade Mirage Sect was in an uproar.

Originally, it was just the Ling Hua incident… As the number one Immortal cultivation sect in the Central Plains, even the slightest gossip could be spread widely, not to mention this kind of big news.

This was normal.

Ling Hua might have been bewitched or controlled by the demon race, and had betrayed them after helping them kill their fellow disciples. This kind of thing, even the group of crazy people from the demonic sect did not dare to spread such a rumor.

But now, not only was the news out, but it was also true…

The entire Central Plains was in an uproar, but before long, there was news of the demonic sect attacking the mountain and breaking a layer of the Jade Mirage Sect’s protection formation. It immediately blew up.

As soon as this happened, the Jade Mirage Sect’s search order for Ling Hua was delayed for a while. Fortunately, most of the strength in Jade Mirage Sect’s forces was still there. The first layer being broken was an empirical mistake. The demonic sect was soon stopped outside and entered a stalemate.

However, before the onlookers could recover from their shock, the second layer of the Jade Mirage Sect’s protection formation suddenly lost its effect for some reason. In the chaos, ‘Ten Thousand Maple Rivers’ of the demonic sect actually barged into the main hall of the Scarlet Fire Palace on the second layer of the Jade Mirage Mountain and smashed the spirit tablets of the previous Scarlet Fire Palace Masters while laughing.

When he heard the news, the Scarlet Fire Palace Master’s face turned green.

Even if they managed to stop the demonic sect, they had already lost all their face. The Scarlet Fire Palace’s reputation had been completely destroyed and they could no longer raise their heads among their fellow disciples.

No matter how powerful the Scarlet Fire Palace’s alchemy Dao talismans were, they could not escape the ridicule of: ‘Your main hall was invaded by the demonic sect, and even your ancestors’ spirit tablets were smashed. Oh, I almost forgot, that ‘myriad Maple River’ was still a member of the Scarlet Fire Palace before he betrayed the Jade Mirage.’

This was not the end.

At the same time, the Green Centipede announced that the Wugou family, the Xuanyin family, the Taiqing Pavilion, the Sword Pavilion, the Heart Sword Sect, the Xiangsi Sect, and the Solitary Cloud Peak had joined forces and claimed that there were many suspicious points about the Ling Hua incident and that the Jade Mirage Sect was too arbitrary and that the scene had to be re-investigated. This was equivalent to challenging the Jade Mirage Sect in another way.

One by one, they forcefully stuffed the melon into people’s throats, simply about to choke people to death!

The three Palace Masters of the Jade Mirage Sect almost vomited blood. Things that had not happened in thousands of years had all happened in the past few days. The cause was just an internal fight that could be considered a traditional skill. It was nothing more than the addition of a person named Liu Yuan as a medium.

Obviously, these people had not understood that this small variable was not the weight on both sides of the lever, but the point that supported the lever!

Any movement at this point would redefine the weight on both sides of the lever.

However, no matter how turbulent and chaotic it was outside, the Wuyin Cliff was surprisingly calm.

Perhaps it was because everyone’s attention was now on the blunder that the Jade Mirage Sect had made, but the search order that had been issued later on did not carry much weight. It did not mobilize much of the forces of the sects that had blindly followed the Jade Mirage Sect in the past.

Or rather, Liu Yuan had found this blind spot too well.

After all, even if Ling Hua was accused of ‘betraying the sect’ and ‘colluding with the demon race’, she still had a lot of fans, especially after the commotion caused by the seven sects and families. The credibility of the Jade Mirage Sect had dropped by a large margin, and they were still negotiating with the Green Centipede.

As a result, no one would have thought that Daoist nun Ling Hua, who was the model fairy of the Righteous Path, would be hiding in the stronghold of the demonic sect. Moreover, she was by the side of the Spirit Transformation River, not far from the ‘crime scene’.

Liu Yuan and his group spent nearly half a month in the base of the Wuyin Cliff.

Some were recuperating, some were cultivating, some were planning, and some were acting cute.

‘I even suspect that I’m here on vacation.’ Liu Yuan sat in the back room with Zhizhi in his arms. As he stabilized the power of the mountains and seas, he thought to himself in amusement.

Outside the open windows on both sides of the river was the Spirit Transformation River with gentle winds. On the surface of the river, there were ripples from the continuous rain. The rain from half a month ago had not stopped until now, which made Liu Yuan suspect if a true dragon had been born.

But that was impossible.

You Su was still locked up in the Sea Slashing Tower. She guarded the abyss of the Yonghui Sea and had not come out for thousands of years. Even the mermen folk could only worship her sculpture day and night.

During this half a month, Liu Yuan also contacted Chuichui through the soul contract. This stupid dragon meowed in fear, expressing that she might be a fake Scarlet Mist Flowing Scaled Wrym. She was so scared that she was about to cry, and said that she liked him very much, that she would be obedient in the future, and that he must not abandon her.

It took Liu Yuan a long time to convince Chuichui that he would not abandon her just because her scales had changed color, and that he would continue to treat her as a mount in the future.

“Without you, who should I ride in the future? Hong Luan, the Su sisters, or Zhizhi?” Liu Yuan said.

Realizing that her role was irreplaceable, Chuichui became happy and reported her and Ling Zhen’s schedule to Liu Yuan.

They had already arrived in the City of Ten Thousand Swords and met with Duan Lanruo. After hearing the news, the City Lord of Ten Thousand Swords had already sent people to look for Liu Yuan’s whereabouts. He was more anxious than anyone else. The Sword Pavilion’s involvement in the ‘impeachment of the seven clans’ was also partly due to her.

Liu Yuan gave some instructions, with the focus being on the Jade Mirage Sect and the Nirvana Secret Realm. Finally, he asked Chuichui to convey his thoughts and gratitude for Duan Lanruo.

After speaking with Chuichui, Liu Yuan frowned.

Chuichui’s evolution was not within his expectations. Or rather, Chuichui was a hidden plot in Water Moon Dock. Now that she had devoured the shadow dragon in the Spirit Transformation River, the changes that had happened were naturally out of his control.

But the dark green scales… He felt that it was a bit déjà vu.

Liu Yuan shook his head and felt that he was overthinking. Anyway, after Chuichui evolved, her strength also leaped to the fifth level of the Form Synthesis stage, which was a great thing.

There was a sudden movement outside the door.

“Han Tianyi, Deputy Altar Master of Wuyin Cliff, requests an audience with the Holy Messenger,” a gentle and polite male voice said.

Liu Yuan put Zhizhi down, patted his clothes, and stood up. He thought to himself, ‘It’s been half a month before he can’t keep his cool. This person is really something.’

Previously, they were all more or less injured, so it was naturally better for them to interact with fewer people. Thus, Zhiying only maintained the noble and cold demeanor of a Holy Mesenger and only allowed Su Lanfeng to communicate with her. Other than that, she did not meet anyone else.

As the Holy Messenger had just arrived, the people of Wuyihn Cliff naturally did not dare to neglect her, but they also did not dare to be too attentive in case they disturbed the Holy Messenger. Each and every one of them was like a waiter of Haidilao, carefully striving for a silent level of service.

With the Holy Messenger’s request, these people who were trembling with fear actually heaved a sigh of relief.

Therefore, for the past half a month, everyone only knew that the Holy Messenger had come here to do something important. The Holy Messenger had her own team of followers. They did not know anything else, and they did not dare to know.

However, why did Han Tianyi dare to disturb them?

Naturally, he had a purpose in his heart, and he had no choice but to disturb them.
