Sect: Starting with Comprehending Thunder Skill-Chapter 70 Wei Henian’s Anger
Chapter 70: Chapter 70 Wei Henian’s Anger
Finally, he took out the heads of the three Bai brothers and said, "Fortunately, heaven has a way, and I was lucky to escape. I saw them wounded in the Great Black Mountain and seized the opportunity to attack and kill them. This can be considered as avenging Senior Brother Han and the others."
As he said this, Li Yunjing’s eyes turned red, and his voice carried a trace of sorrow.
"This guy..."
This scene made the Foundation Establishment Realm cultivators frown slightly. This kid didn’t seem to be honest!
The authenticity of his words no longer mattered.
There was no way to verify this case—the three Bai brothers were silenced too.
What else was there to investigate?
Of course, the Shenxiao Dao Sect had many ways to uncover the truth.
Celestial Secret Technique, Soul Searching Technique, Tracking Technique...
Each Divine Technique could achieve that!
But these techniques were not something ordinary disciples could master. Who among the prominent figures would personally attend to such a trivial matter involving four Outer Disciples?
Even if an Inner Sect Disciple died, the big shots wouldn’t care!
Unless it was their direct descendants or Direct Disciples!
"Ahem!"
Zhong Hongtai was naturally shocked by Li Yunjing’s words.
This kid could really make up stories.
The sight of the Red Sun Giant Snake’s remains and the unclosed eyes of the three Bai brothers made the case not too difficult to handle.
"Hmm! Very well! Once the Law Enforcement Hall thoroughly investigates and confirms your words are correct, you will naturally be rewarded."
But this kid, Li Yunjing, had such significant backing, summoning someone as prominent as Yu Tingchuan and having connections with the young master of the Fu Family. Zhong Hongtai had no choice but to acknowledge it while pinching his nose.
Zhong Hongtai thought to himself, "So old, so old! How did I end up engaging in corruption and reversing right and wrong!"
Alas, with little time left and the need to prolong the family’s glory, Zhong Hongtai had no choice but to board the Fu Family’s pirate ship.
"Indeed! Steward Zhong will certainly act impartially. Yunyi, this old man will take his leave first."
Seeing the matter dealt with, Yu Tingchuan felt there were no further issues and nodded calmly. He stood up and said, "Everyone, I still have a batch of elixirs to refine urgently. Farewell!"
"Daoist Yu, take care!"
Zhong Hongtai, Li Yunjing, and the others stood up, escorting the esteemed figure out.
They only came to after watching Yu Tingchuan transform into a streak of light and disappear beyond the horizon.
Even among Foundation Establishment Realm cultivators, there were vast differences!
A character like Yu Tingchuan was in a position not weaker than an ancestor in the Golden Core Realm within the Sect.
Seeing Yu Tingchuan left the Foundation Establishment Realm figures with complex expressions.
As for Li Yunjing, it was a negligible matter.
Zhong Hongtai stayed momentarily, played his part, and then took the Law Enforcement Hall’s people and left.
Next, Li Yunjing and Yu Yunyi also bid farewell to the Hall Master and others, preparing to report to the Outer Sect. frёewebnoѵēl.com
In the Sect, reaching the fourth layer of the Qi Cultivation Realm naturally granted an assessment opportunity.
"Let’s go! I will accompany you to avoid any difficulties, assigning you a terrible task."
Through the teleportation array, Yu Yunyi led Li Yunjing to the Southern Mountain Range.
In the Shenxiao Dao Sect, besides the Central Peaks, the Eastern region was where True Disciples gathered; the Northern region was the territory of Inner Sect Disciples; the Southern region was for Outer Disciples.
The gathering places on each mountain peak weren’t divided by cultivation level but by the activities and compositions of the disciples.
True Disciples also operated in other peaks’ areas, and some Outer Disciples were assigned tasks in the True Disciple and Inner Sect’s areas.
These divisions weren’t fixed and didn’t strictly follow geographical locations. They were more conventionally perceived layers among disciples.
While Yu Yunyi accompanied Li Yunjing to the Southern Mountain Range, Ye Long transformed into a streak of light, weaving through the mountains towards the Ten Thousand Laws Peak.
Soon, with a hint of panic on his face, Ye Long rushed into the "Ten Thousand Laws Palace."
"What is it? Why so flustered? Where is your composure as an Inner Sect Disciple?"
Seeing his trusted aide arrive, Wei Henian frowned and scolded.
"Senior brother, something has happened!"
Ye Long took a breath and anxiously said, "News just came from the Miscellaneous Hall that Li Yunjing has returned safely while our four Outer Disciples are all dead!"
"What! Say that again!"
Wei Henian stood up abruptly, his face full of disbelief.
Four Outer Disciples sent to kill a janitor ended with such results?
Ye Long relayed the information from the Miscellaneous Hall in detail once more.
"How interesting! A mere janitor, an ant-like existence, has turned the tables. Where did he get such power!"
Wei Henian could hardly believe his ears.
If Ye Long weren’t his trusted aide, he would have thought he was being betrayed with false information.
After a while, Wei Henian calmed down, his face turning frighteningly grim from the news from the Fu Family and the Yu Family.
"Did this little bastard, Li Yunjing, report me for misusing power to assign him tasks in violation of regulations?"
Wei Henian glared at Ye Long coldly, asking softly.
As for the four dead Outer Disciples, Wei Henian paid no attention. They were useless trash, and their deaths were inconsequential—resources shouldn’t be wasted on the worthless.
"Our people said Li Yunjing didn’t mention it!"
Ye Long, looking at Wei Henian’s cold eyes, hesitated before speaking.
"Nonsense! Why are you hesitating at a time like this?"
Annoyed by Ye Long’s hesitation, Wei Henian swept the table clean with a fierce swipe, sending the spirit fruit, spirit tea, and tea set crashing to the ground in pieces.
"Senior brother, please calm down!"
Ye Long was so startled that his heart almost jumped out of his throat.
"It’s like this! Zhong Hongtai seemed to have tried coaxing Li Yunjing to report the unfair task assignment, but Li Yunjing didn’t take the bait."
"Zhong Hongtai! One day, I will make you die a horrible death! Your family will also suffer because of you and die miserably!"
Learning that Zhong Hongtai was still going against him, Wei Henian seethed with rage.
"That little bastard knows his place!"
Thinking about Li Yunjing, Wei Henian’s face eased slightly. After pondering, he asked, "What is that kid doing now?"
"Senior brother, he seems to have gone to the Foreign Affairs Hall with Yu Yunyi."
Ye Long said in a low voice.
"Oh? Has he reached the fourth layer of the Qi Cultivation Realm and gone to become an Outer Disciple?"
Wei Henian raised his eyebrows, asking sinisterly.
"Yes! I don’t know how he cultivated, but he advanced from the first to the fourth layer of the Qi Cultivation Realm in less than two months! It seems he has some secrets!"
Ye Long said decisively, his eyes flashing with envy.
