Chapter 460: Chapter 456: If Vice Sect Leader Doesn’t Get His Way, He Will Personally Come to Invite Su Jinyu
“Valley Master, if the Star Tower doesn’t allow Shen Han to participate in this qualification trial, can we still invite him to a duel?”
At the Seven Sects Martial Arts Competition, Shen Han had offended the Cangxuan Valley.
Everyone knows that the disciples of Cangxuan Valley want to get back at him.
The possibility of not participating in this qualification trial is quite high.
Yue Bugong thought for a moment and still shook his head.
“Changnian can invite him to a duel, but he might not accept.
That Shen Han knows he’s not your match, and he’s not stupid, why would he obediently deliver himself to you?”
As Yue Bugong spoke, he looked again at Zheng Changnian.
“Today you consecutively defeated Fang Yu and Zhao Chao; this news will spread across the Northern Three Domains within a few days.
Knowing your current strength, Shen Han will probably hide even further away.”
Yue Bugong’s words indeed made sense.
Knowing how formidable you are, Zheng Changnian, why would he come to you?
Upon hearing this, Zheng Changnian smiled lightly: “If he doesn’t dare to accept the challenge, then when I’m free, I’ll visit the Star Tower sect’s grounds.
Right in front of the whole sect, I’ll mock him thoroughly.
If he still doesn’t come out, I can spend some money, hire a few people, and stand at the sect gate to keep scolding him.”
Upon hearing this, Yue Bugong just smirked; these words sounded more like a joke.
“You folks chat amongst yourselves; I have to go check on those two kids, Zhao Chao and Fang Yu.
They lost to you today, and their spirits might not be too good.
I need to comfort them.
Otherwise, they’ll say this Valley Master only favors a select few.”
After saying this, Yue Bugong left.
The few left surrounded Zheng Changnian, congratulating him with their words.
However, Zheng Changnian was already tired of hearing these words and only smiled for formality’s sake.
This step came sooner than he had expected.
Sometimes, he even wished he hadn’t defeated Zhao Chao and Fang Yu so quickly.
Just like now, suddenly, he had no target.
Next, Zheng Changnian set his sights on the geniuses of the Inner Domain.
The goal had to be reset.
“Senior Brother Changnian, that Long Saber you wield, full of rust…
Is it some strange Divine Weapon?”
Ying Jiu was still a bit curious about why Zheng Changnian wielded a rusty Long Saber.
Upon hearing this, Zheng Changnian shook his head: “It’s no Divine Weapon, just a rusty knife.
Yesterday, I found it in a corner and grabbed it casually.”
Zheng Changnian spoke casually as if Fang Yu and Zhao Chao were just characters he could handle effortlessly.
After they lost, he certainly found much less amusement.
As he spoke, Zheng Changnian thought of Shen Han again.
As it stands, there’s still one Shen Han to toy with.
Thinking of Shen Han’s demeanor and look, a hint of mockery appeared on Zheng Changnian’s face.
He enjoyed tormenting the very arrogant ones, just like Shen Han.
It was a source of amusement while idling and seeking new targets.
…
Since Yi Xingshan and Tian Fen’s match, the situation in the Celestial Sword Sect had basically been set.
The Grand Elder’s power was originally weaker than that of Vice Sect Leader Yi Qi.
This event further made everyone see.
Compared to Yi Qi, the Grand Elder’s faction was far inferior in means.
Seeing his foolishness naturally lowered the expectations of his faction to the freezing point.
The once wavering high and mid-level sect members, hence chose to side with the Vice Sect Leader.
After all, with the Vice Sect Leader’s competence, the sect would only develop better under his leadership.
On a sect level, everyone essentially formed a community of interests.
Previously, those disciples who targeted Yi Xingshan, including the leaders.
Were now in prison, supposedly for investigation into whether they were from enemy sects.
But what the truth was didn’t really matter anymore.
Whether they were or weren’t, they were treated as such.
In the morning, when Shen Han got up, he wandered around a bit.
In the Celestial Sword Sect, besides Shen Han, everything seemed fine.
Based on his interactions, Vice Sect Leader Yi, Yi Xingshan, they were easy to get along with.
But the competitive pressure in the Celestial Sword Sect was indeed intense.
Shen Han wandered around despite the earliness of the two-hour period, but many disciples had already begun their training.
At dawn, many held books in the courtyard reading deeply.
Indeed, different sects had different cultures.
Shen Han couldn’t say much as the Celestial Sword Sect thrived on their system.
Moreover, cultivation is mutually beneficial.
The disciples’ improvements primarily benefit themselves.
It’s unlike the mundane world where laborers toil for landlords’ gains.
Upon returning to the courtyard, Yi Xingshan was up.
Though hungover, his head still spinning.
But receiving a message earlier, he sat waiting for Shen Han.
“Brother Yi, why not rest a bit longer?
You don’t seem well, how about taking some Pill?”
Observing Yi Xingshan’s state, Shen Han felt he still seemed tipsy.
In response to Shen Han’s concern, Yi Xingshan just laughed: “Brother Shen, don’t worry, I’m fine, I’m fine.
But Brother Shen should prepare.
My father has sent someone to notify Su Jinyu; she should be here within an hour.”
Surprised, Shen Han replied: “She’s coming to see me? I don’t need to go to her?”
Before coming, Shen Han heard much about Su Jinyu.
All said she was greatly valued, directly taken in as a sect’s Direct Disciple.
And now, such a cherished Direct Disciple is coming to see him…
Since arriving at the Celestial Sword Sect, Shen Han felt he’s received such good treatment, almost unaccustomed to it.
At this moment, the person Vice Sect Leader Yi sent already reached Su Jinyu’s courtyard.
Upon finding out she was with Fu Tianqi, he quickly rode a Magical Artifact to Fu Tianqi’s residence.
Lately, the two had been discussing Sword Dao together.
Although Su Jinyu’s Realm was far inferior, Fu Tianqi recognized her understanding of Sword Dao, deeming her worthy to discuss it with him.
“Direct Disciple Su Jinyu, by order of the Vice Sect Leader, I request you visit the Southwest Courtyard to meet an honored guest.”
Upon hearing this, both immediately realized.
To meet someone, to meet someone must mean meeting that Shen Han.
Fu Tianqi’s expression darkened: “Lord Wan, who is this honored guest that Junior Sister Su must meet personally?”
“This old man doesn’t know, I’m just here to deliver the message.
Who it is and what it’s about, I’m entirely unaware.”
Lord Wan was evidently an old hand, not giving Fu Tianqi a chance to inquire further.
Hearing this, a hint of anger rose in Fu Tianqi’s expression.
Su Jinyu quickly interjected.
“Jinyu understands; please inform the Vice Sect Leader I’ll be there shortly.”
Though thinking her attitude was quite good, Lord Wan still shook his head.
“Don’t delay, come with this old man now.
The Vice Sect Leader said it’s not suitable to keep the honored guest waiting, so let’s leave immediately.”
Upon hearing this, Fu Tianqi’s anger grew more intense.
“Lord Wan, what if we don’t go immediately and let that so-called honored guest wait?”
“This old man asked the Vice Sect Leader before, if she refuses, the Vice Sect Leader will personally come to invite Su Jinyu over.”
