章節 31: A Confrontation
編輯: EndlessFantasy Translation
"If I'm not mistaken, you are the sixth elder of the Sky Cloud Sect, Fei Ying, right?" Cen Li asked. "Sixth Elder, why did you leave your Sky Cloud Sect? Why did you come to this small sect alone?"
Fei Ying felt the intimidating aura from the other party and became alert. "I believe there's no need to elaborate on the reason. The genius of the Immortal Sect, Cen Li, is interrogating me, but aren't you here yourself? So you should already know the reason."
"I can't be considered a genius." Cen Li's tone was modest, but it somehow gave off a sense of arrogance.
He was able to remain so calm even when he was facing an elder from the Sky Cloud Sect. Because of this, Fei Ying couldn't help but raise his opinion of him to a higher level. It seemed that he had underestimated his ability.
At this moment, Cen Li thought to himself, 'I already know the reason? It can't be that the sixth elder of the Sky Cloud Sect also has a meal that he can't eat?'
But then again, this sixth elder's reputation for being a glutton was indeed well-known outside.
'No, no, I'm staying here because of the wok and Chen Muxue's secret! It wasn't because of a mouthful of food!'
At the thought of this, Cen Li became even more vigilant. Could it be that the secret had been discovered by the Sky Cloud Sect? Was that why they made the sixth elder come all the way here to peep at the situation?
"Sixth Elder is already so old. It's not very good to peek at a little girl, right?"
Fei Ying's expression almost twisted when he heard this. "Nonsense! Take a good look at me! How am I old?"
Was this the main point? Cen Li was speechless.
"Sixth Elder, please take care of yourself and don't continue like this." Cen Li made a gesture of invitation.
Those who didn't know would think that the two were talking in the main hall of the Heavenly Cauldron Sect. In fact, they were squatting in the grass by the side of the road, and their polite actions were very funny.
"It seems like the Heavenly Cauldron Sect is indeed under the protection of your Immortal Sect? " When Fei Ying saw that Chen Muxue and the others had gone far away, he stopped squatting and stood up to pat the grass off his body.
Cen Li stood up as well, and the moment he did, he very naturally used a small cleaning spell. There was no hesitation in his words when he said, "That's right. That's why I'm advising the Sky Cloud Sect not to get involved."
However, that old man, their sect master, didn't have the time to care about this small Heavenly Cauldron Sect, which meant that he couldn't care about it even if he had casually said it.
Fei Ying was speechless and couldn't help but ask, "Are all of you in the Immortal Sect clean freaks?"
"This is a secret of the Immortal Sect!"
The old man was a clean freak, and he was the most powerful person in the entire Immortal Sect. What could he do?
Fei Ying thought hard about it. With Cen Li's arrival, he could not stay any longer. Chen Muxue's matter was of great importance, so he had to return as soon as possible to discuss it with the sect master.
He was looking forward to seeing what the Immortal Sect would do. They had always declared that they did not care about the mortal world. But looking at this situation, their words do not match their actions. How would they explain this then?
…
In the capital, in a luxurious palace courtyard, a person was anxiously flipping through a book. In front of him, all kinds of books had already piled up into a small mountain.
Suddenly, his eyes lit up. "As expected! It's the Heavenly Cauldron Sect!"
The old book page in his hand recorded that a cultivator of the Heavenly Cauldron Sect opened the Cauldron of Heaven and Earth to refine medicine for some reason and helped a Foundation Building cultivator live for a thousand years!
One had to know that the lifespan of an ordinary Foundation Building cultivator was only around two hundred years.
According to Huo Chen's previous information, the Heavenly Cauldron Sect was currently on the decline.
"Second Prince, Young Master Huo has sent a letter."
"Leave it there for now. I'll write a letter and send it to Huo Chen now!"
