Chapter 1161: Ye Wuming
When Yun Hai first heard about the marriage contract between Xia Liu and Liu Mingyue, he sensed trouble.
And now, the news has indeed come!
Without anyone noticing, Yun Hai's fist clenched tightly.
If Sage Qingjue and Liu Hong weren't here today, Xia Liu would surely be in trouble.
"Didn't your Great Elder tell you? Xia Liu is participating in the Immortal Sect competition because he's the consort of the Qingyun Sect."
Ye Tiande looked at the Qingyun Disciples with a smile.
As for his purpose, those with insight would naturally understand.
"The consort of the Qingyun Sect?"
"Could it be that Senior Brother Xia and Senior Sister Liu really have a marriage contract?"
"This is truly..."
...
The Qingyun Disciples began a heated discussion.
This news was too sudden for them.
Liu Mingyue has always been the goddess of the Qingyun Disciples.
Everyone wishes to have her.
But today, the goddess is unexpectedly engaged to someone else.
Previously, at Qingyun Sect, Senior Brother Yun had declared that he must marry Liu Mingyue.
And now, he's been slapped in the face.
Presumably, Senior Brother Yun would be the most upset.
As discussions abounded, Liu Mingyue felt a little embarrassed, because this marriage contract was announced out of necessity.
Few truly knew the inside story.
And in front of Ye Tiande, naturally, the truth couldn't be spoken.
"Everyone, stop discussing. Sister Mingyue and Brother Xia are a perfect match!"
Lu Fang said as such.
"Junior Brother Lu, you knew about this long ago?"
Qingxiao asked with suspicion.
If this really is the case, why didn't Liu Hong announce it at Qingyun?
"Yes, originally, the Great Elder intended to announce after the Immortal Sect competition to avoid affecting the participants' state of mind."
Lu Fang casually found an excuse to cover it up.
He knew the truth, that the marriage contract between Liu Mingyue and Xia Liu was established out of necessity.
Now, they'll have to wait for Xia Liu to handle the Xuantian Sect's matters before discussing it.
"Sect Master Ye, it's considerate of you to be concerned about my daughter's marriage. How about focusing on the competition now? You'd better be careful; if your favored disciple loses, all his treasures will go to Xia Liu."
Liu Hong looked at Ye Tiande with a fake smile.
This guy is overly confident, thinking about Xia Liu's treasures.
He might not have considered that his disciple's treasures could be taken by Xia Liu instead.
"There's no need for Elder Liu to worry about that. The Xuantian Sect possesses numerous treasures, and even gifting away some won't matter. Besides, my disciple will not lose to your bastard son-in-law!"
"Sect Master Ye, you keep calling him a bastard. My junior brother is merely doing what he ought to, and your son's fate in killing and robbing could be seen as deserved retribution. I hope you won't lose your dignity by boasting empty threats."
Sage Qingjue had tolerated someone like Ye Tiande for a long time.
He despised cultivators who viewed human life as worthless.
Such people might slaughter others at a whim.
In the mundane world, they are extremely dangerous existences.
"Old Daoist Fellow Qingjue, that's enough from you!"
Ye Tiande gritted his teeth, his aura surging, and in an instant, the surrounding snow completely vanished.
King's Canyon was revealed in its true form.
"Senior Brother Xia is Sage Qingjue's junior brother?"
"I heard Sage Qingjue say that Senior Brother Xia seems to have some entanglement with the son of the Xuantian Sect's Sect Master."
"What on earth is happening here..."
The many Qingyun disciples were left bewildered.
Xia Liu's sudden entry into Qingyun Sect at this time was definitely not a coincidence.
The fact that Xia Liu is Sage Qingjue's junior brother was enough to shock the entire Qingyun Sect.
"Heartbreaking for you, Old Ghost Ye!"
Liu Hong wanted to laugh, but in this setting, he had to maintain his composure.
"Sect Master Ye, could it be that the participant for the Immortal Sect competition is among the disciples behind you?"
Sage Qingjue pointed behind Ye Tiande at his disciples: "Pardon my bluntness, but the highest cultivation among these disciples is only the tenth level of Qi Cultivation, which doesn't seem impressive?"
"Heh, is that so? Xia Liu is at the tenth level of Qi Cultivation, and although he possesses some strange technique, how often can he use it?"
Recalling the previous encounter at Osmanthus Sect, Ye Tiande felt regretful in secret.
If he had acted a bit faster that day, Xia Liu's treasures would have been his.
Alas, time cannot go back, so whether he can secure his treasures will depend on today's competition!
"This session's representative for the Immortal Sect competition for the Xuantian Sect is Ye Wuming!"
With Ye Tiande's voice calling out, a frost-white figure suddenly appeared atop a high peak in King's Canyon.
The elegant figure astounded the audience.
The snow-white figure leaped, and an astonishing scene unfolded.
The person descending seemed like a feather, their entire body gently floating down from the sky.
"This is the Green Feather Technique of the Xuantian Sect!"
"One of the legendary techniques created by the founding ancestor of Xuantian Sect!"
Liu Hong and Qingjue's expressions both changed.
Being able to execute such a technique means Ye Wuming truly inherited from the Xuantian ancestor.
With this, Xia Liu is in danger...
"Hehe, Old Daoist Fellow Qingjue, you have quite an eye for this."
Ye Tiande smiled brightly at Sage Qingjue, then looked even more radiant: "Elder Liu, presumably you received the news quite early about Nameless obtaining the ancestor's inheritance."
"Heh."
Liu Hong coldly chuckled and didn't say anything else.
"It doesn't matter. The Five Great Immortal Sects have always been like this. Xuantian Sect has people from your Qingyun Sect, as well as the other four Immortal Sects."
Ye Tiande didn't mind these things either.
After all, to access sect secrets requires a series of investigations, and spies cannot pass through those checks.
At this point, Ye Wuming was already on the arena.
His striking posture drew envy.
His handsome face was absolutely unforgettable.
The moment he appeared, everyone present, except for a few exceptions, seemed dim in comparison.
Xia Liu and Ye Wuming exchanged glances, and a peculiar energy flashed in their eyes.
"Nameless, show some respect, come and greet the two seniors."
"Yes, Sect Master!"
Ye Wuming, with an expressionless face, cupped his hands towards Sage Qingjue and Liu Hong: "Senior Qingjue, Senior Liu."
"Twelfth level Qi Cultivation, your talent is remarkable."
Sage Qingjue praised the ability and not the person, as Ye Wuming's talent deserved commendation.
"Naturally, it is remarkable, or else how could he be capable of killing Xia Liu."
Ye Wuming displayed a mischievous smile, his gaze locked onto Xia Liu, disregarding anyone else present.
"Heh, Old Ghost Ye has indeed trained a fine disciple, who absorbs your essence perfectly."
Seeing Ye Wuming's attitude, Liu Hong immediately teased.
"Of course, my disciple naturally has to be like this!"
"A cultivator harboring evil intentions will face more disasters on the path ahead than other cultivators. Your disciple's innate talent is a waste..."
Despite his good temperament, Sage Qingjue couldn't help but offer some words of advice given the situation...
