Chapter 1158 Yun Hai Turbulence
"Hmm, got it."
Liu Mingyue and Lu Fang understood what Liu Hong meant.
The five great Immortal Sects have always been in a period of rivalry.
They have been fighting openly and secretly all the time.
Currently, Xia Liu and Xuantian Sect have an irreconcilable feud.
Although Ye Tiande has shifted his attention to Xia Liu's treasures,
if he knows Xia Liu has immense potential,
he absolutely would not tolerate letting him continue to live.
Because when Xia Liu grows up, all the benefits gained from him will be repaid in full.
That might not be all.
If Xia Liu truly becomes a powerful force, it will spell the end for the Xuantian Sect.
In a world where the strong are revered, everything is resolved by fist.
Right now, Xia Liu has not completely grown.
Ye Tiande has the ability to control.
He naturally could not let Xia Liu grow.
Killing a prodigious talent in the cradle is an unchanging rule through the ages.
"Alright, as long as everyone understands, you two should learn more from Xia Liu, look at his cultivation, then look at yours."
As an elder, Liu Hong was qualified to criticize Liu Mingyue and Lu Fang.
Having said this, he could only sigh.
Even he himself, back in the days at Xia Liu's age, probably couldn't achieve half of his ability.
The gap between a genius and an ordinary person...
"Mingyue, you and Lu Fang go prepare some wine and dishes, later we'll go to the back mountain to celebrate."
"Got it!"
Watching his daughter and Lu Fang happily leave, Liu Hong turned to Xia Liu and said, "Xia Liu, I'll talk to you about the Immortal Sect competition later."
"Alright, Senior Liu, but this Qingyun Peak..."
Xia Liu felt a bit bitter because of his presence, the spiritual energy of Qingyun Peak and even the Qingyun Sect's region had changed, which was basically a bloodletting for a cultivator sect.
"There's really nothing to worry about, this Spirit Gathering Array is significantly more advanced than the one on Shu Mountain. In a few months, Qingyun Peak will return to its former state, so don't worry about it."
Liu Hong patted Xia Liu on the shoulder.
He was extremely joyful inside.
Not to mention draining Qingyun Peak's spiritual energy, he'd be willing to transfer his energy if needed.
Such a rare genius, the future is limitless.
A sect being able to form such ties with an extraordinary individual brings immense benefits both now and for the future.
Currently, Xia Liu feels indebted to the Qingyun Sect.
This is very good.
It shows he understands gratitude, and if the Qingyun Sect faces any danger in the future, he definitely won't stand by idly.
This is also why all the major Immortal Sects go to great lengths to recruit talented cultivators.
Because these geniuses have boundless futures ahead of them.
Once they grow, they bring immense benefit to the sect.
If Xia Liu breaks through the shackles and reaches the Foundation Establishment Stage, then in the future, Qingyun Sect in Huaxia, at least, could prosper for a thousand years without decline.
This is the advantage of having a high-strength cultivator as a pillar.
If Xia Liu reaches an even higher realm, then everything will change.
"No matter what, I must be thankful to Senior Liu and Sect Master Lu for giving me this opportunity."
Xia Liu expressed his sincere gratitude once again.
"We understand your intentions, come, let's drink and chat together."
As the words fell, Liu Hong was the first to use his spiritual artifact to fly down the mountain.
Xia Liu followed suit, deploying the Flowing Fire Sword.
"Truly a prodigy!"
Seeing Xia Liu's proficient Sword Riding Technique, Lu Mu exclaimed once again.
...
On a certain peak within the Qingyun Sect.
In the same pavilion as yesterday, the Five Spirit Practitioners of Qingyun gathered once more.
Qingniao punched the stone table: "That guy actually recovered!"
In Qingyun Sect, Elder Gao values honor the most, even Elder Gao said Xia Liu's injuries have healed.
Elder Gao had already given up changing the nomination, and as disciples, the Five Spirit Practitioners had no chance at all.
"That guy is somewhat suspicious, before it was clearly said that he was severely injured, his flesh and meridians were seriously damaged, yet he recovered within just a few days!"
Qingxiao sensed something was off but couldn't pinpoint where.
Normally, a cultivator at the Qi Cultivation tenth level couldn't possess such recovery capability.
"I think it must have been Honored Master who intervened."
Qingniao said softly.
This sentence plunged the atmosphere into silence.
"It must be, if not for Honored Master's intervention, how could he recover in just a few days."
"According to Elder Gao's earlier accounts, Xia Liu's injuries were quite severe, if Honored Master intervened, the consumption wouldn't be a little."
"For sure, healing among cultivators often involves massive expenditure, Honored Master went so far as to help a new disciple, this is not simple."
"I heard from some disciples that there's a marriage agreement between Xia Liu and Junior Sister Liu."
Crack!
A crisp sound echoed as the tea cup in Yun Hai's hand shattered into powder.
Realizing the gravity of the situation, fear filled Qingniao's face.
He had only heard about the marriage agreement through gossip, it was a topic circulating among the Low-Rank Disciples.
Previously he refrained from mentioning it, and he accidentally blurted it out just now, damn it!
"Qingniao, sometimes trouble comes from the mouth, you know?"
Yun Hai said coldly.
"Hmm, understood, if I hear juniors discussing this topic again, I'll educate them."
Qingniao pushed the responsibility onto the juniors.
He couldn't afford to bear it.
If Yun Hai, who is at the Qi Cultivation twelfth level, were to act against him, he might get hit for nothing.
"Xia Liu stirred up such a big issue as soon as he entered, even causing Honored Master a huge drain, probably damaging Honored Master's foundation this time..."
"Indeed, Honored Master doesn't have a healing technique, intervening to help Xia Liu would definitely damage his foundational cultivation."
"Damn it, that guy's arrival led to Honored Master getting injured, so annoying!"
...
Yun Hai's words immediately caused the other four to join in denouncing Xia Liu.
But even knowing this, they couldn't do anything.
If Liu Hong is willing to damage his own foundation to heal Xia Liu, that's his own business.
Qingniao and the others understood.
The reason Yun Hai was so angry must not have been because Honored Master's foundation was damaged.
Rather, it was because the rumor spread among the juniors that there was a marriage agreement between Liu Mingyue and Xia Liu.
If this matter were confirmed, Yun Hai would probably go mad for a while, right?
"You all should go back to cultivating."
After a brief silence, Yun Hai said solemnly.
"Alright, Senior Brother Yun should also rest early, the day after tomorrow we set out for Kunlun Mountain."
Yun Hai did not respond, and once his divine sense detected no one else, his expression turned sinister.
"Liu Mingyue, you being cold to me doesn't matter, as you will ultimately be mine, but you dared to have dealings with Xia Liu right in front of me! I will definitely make sure he dies!"
Saying this, a strange light flickered in Yun Hai's eyes: "The old-fashioned Qingyun Sect, it's time for it to crumble..."
...
Underneath the waterfall on the back mountain, Xia Liu sat in the pavilion drinking wine and eating meat with Liu Hong and Lu Mu.
The three laughed and discussed martial arts techniques, creating a lively atmosphere.
Time quickly passed as the cultivators discussed, and before they could finish enjoying their conversation, it was time to depart for the Immortal Sect competition site...
