In the welcoming hall of the Lok Hong Sword Sect, an old man was talking with a beautiful woman. In addition to this old man, a middle-aged Confucian scholar was also accompanying him on the side.
“Senior Brother Bei, you are slightly more familiar with Ning Cheng, so you can explain it to Palace Master Sang.” The old man sitting at the top of the main seat said with a smile as he looked at the middle-aged Confucian scholar.
This old man was none other than Tantai Fei, one of the three Vice Patriarchs of the Rainbow Fall Sword Sect, while the Sang Palace Master he was referring to was the Seventh Palace Master of the Drifting Snow Palace, Sang Xiezhu, and the middle-aged Confucian was obviously the Rainbow Fall Sword Sect Elder, Bei Youfa, who was very positive about Ning Cheng.
Elder Bei hesitated for a moment and asked, “Lord Sang, although Ning Cheng has done something by chance this time, his cultivation level is really too low, only at the Xuan Dan layer. A random core disciple of the Drifting Snow Palace is at the Yuan-Soul realm, and the cultivation level of true disciples is even higher. Moreover, all the female disciples of the Drifting Snow Palace are mortal fairies, so how can they look up to a small inner disciple of the Rainbow Fall Sword Sect? And to bother Lord Sang Palace to come to my Rainbow Fallen Sword Sect personally?”
Sang Xiezhu said with a faint smile, “Ning Cheng has great potential, even though he only has a XuanDan layer cultivation, I believe that with his ability, he will soon be cultivated by the sect. The Rainbow Fallen Sword Sect’s Little Spirit domain is known throughout the world, to allow Ning Cheng to advance to Yuan Soul, that would not take much time.”
Tantai Fei, the Vice Patriarch of the Rainbow Fall Sword Sect, smiled bitterly when he heard this and said, “In the Rainbow Fall Sword Sect, in order to use the Small Spirit Domain, even if one comes from a great background, one still needs to make a sect contribution to be able to do so, besides the Small Spirit Domain is not omnipotent.”
Sang Xiezhu did not care, still smiling, “After Zhong Nian Yun, a true disciple of the Drifting Snow Palace, went back and told Ning Cheng’s story, there are many female disciples of the Drifting Snow Palace who admire him. With Ning Cheng’s promising future, he might soon be a true disciple. Naturally, my Piu Xue Palace cannot condescend to him, Yin Kongchan is one of the most outstandingly qualified disciples of my Piu Xue Palace, and I believe that with her looks and qualifications, she is barely worthy of Ning Cheng ……”
“Yin Kongchan? Palace Master Sang, you’re talking about Yin Kongchan who finished ninth in the Great Competition for Disciples of the Yuan Soul Realm of the Ten Great Sects a few years ago?” Bei Youfa asked in disbelief.
Yin Kongchan had been a Yuan Soul Perfection cultivator a few years ago, and she might even be a God Shaping Realm cultivator now. Moreover, Yin Kongchan’s appearance was definitely no less than Lou Ziyan of the Rainbow Fall Sword Sect, such an outstanding disciple with an unlimited future could not only barely match Ning Cheng? But why would Piaoxu Palace give such an outstanding disciple to Ning Cheng? And through a sect marriage?
“That’s right, a few years ago, in the Great Competition for Disciples of the Yuan Soul Realm of the Ten Great Sects, Empty Chan did win ninth.” Sang Xiezhu said carelessly.
Bei Youfa and the Vice Patriarch of the Fallen Rainbow Sword Sect looked at each other before they said to Sang Xiezhu, “Palace Master Sang, Ning Cheng went to the Little Spirit Realm to close up and cultivate as soon as he returned, so we can’t take the liberty of making a decision on this matter, we still need him to come out before we can answer you.”
“That is of course, since it concerns Senior Nephew Ning Cheng’s matter, of course he needs to give his own consent before he can do so.” Sang Xiezhu replied in a very understanding manner.
After saying that, she was about to ask when Ning Cheng would be coming out of seclusion when Tantai Fei suddenly said, “What good day is it today that the Divisional Elder of the Zhangyi Dao Sect has also come to my Rainbow Fall Sword Sect?”
Tantai Fei said and stood up, saying apologetically to Sang Xiezhu, “Palace Master Sang, I will go and fetch the Division Elder ……”
However, Sang Xiezhu didn’t care at all and said with a smile, “Maybe I know the reason why Senior Sister Qiong Hua is here, Tantai Patriarch go straight to meet and greet, I haven’t seen Senior Sister Qiong Hua for a long time either, why don’t we invite Senior Sister Qiong Hua to come here together to catch up on old times.”
Tantai Fei had no choice but to nod his head in agreement. He knew that, don’t look at Sang Xiezhu’s nice words, but in fact the Drifting Snow Palace and the Chopping Emotion Daoist Sect had a big beam.
It was only a short time before Tantai Fei walked in with a woman dressed in a white dress, a woman with a cool face, a simple female cultivator’s hair in a bun, and a long sword on her back.
When this woman entered and saw that Sang Xiezhu was also there, she froze slightly, but then recovered her naturalness and said to Bei Youfa with a clasp of her fist, “Sovereign Qiong Hua of the Zhangyi Dao has met Senior Brother Bei ……”
“Giggle, Senior Sister Qiong Hua is getting prettier and prettier, even my heart is fluttering.” Although Shi Qionghua did not take the initiative to greet Sang Xiezhu, Sang Xiezhu did take the initiative to greet Shi Qionghua.
Her words, however, were not wrong; although Shi Qionghua had a cool expression, she was absolutely beautiful, with a clear and unmistakable appearance, just like her name, straight compared to Qiong Yu. Standing there, it was as if she was wrapped in a light cloud of mist, making people feel ashamed of themselves at first glance.
“I dare not, Senior Sister Sang is not necessarily ugly.” Shi Qiong Hua spoke in a flat tone, just a tasteless reply.
Seeing that the two seemed to be having some bad words, Elder Bei hurriedly invited Shi Qiong Hua to sit down, while pouring a cup of fine spiritual tea for Shi Qiong Hua.
After Shi Qionghua took a sip of the spirit tea, Elder Pei then politely asked, “It is an honor for my Rainbow Fall Sword Sect for Elder Shi to visit the Rainbow Fall Sword Sect ……”
Shi Qiong Hua still said flatly, “I have come for something this time, I wonder if Ning Cheng of your clan is here?”
“As soon as Ning Cheng returned, he went to the Small Spiritual Domain for retreat, and it is estimated that he will not come out in the near future.” Elder Bei hurriedly returned, he had a vague feeling in his heart that the purpose of this Shi Qiong Hua’s visit was probably similar to that of Sang Xiezhu.
Sure enough, Shi Qiong Hua frowned slightly before continuing, “Ning Cheng’s cultivation level is indeed a bit lower, it is good to be able to close down and cultivate.”
Tantai Fei could not help but say, “Could it be that Elder Shi knows Ning Cheng?”
Teacher Qiong Hua immediately said, “I don’t know Ning Cheng, this time Ning Cheng saved my True Disciple Xu Ying Die and Bu Mei of the Zhangyi Dao Sect, I came here specifically to thank him. I have also asked Bu Mei, Ning Cheng is a good disciple. Moreover, my disciple Ying Die also has a good impression of Ning Cheng, I would like to set Ning Cheng and Ying Die up, if Elder Bei agrees, our two sects can join in marriage.”
Sang Xiezhu laughed heatedly and said, “It is indeed somewhat rare that the Zhangyi Dao Sect has started talking about love.”
Teacher Qionghua frowned once again, and seeing this, Tantai Fei hurriedly stopped in front and said, “I thank you both for your love on behalf of our disciple Ning Cheng. It’s just that Ning Cheng is still in seclusion, and this matter has to go through him personally. How about this, when Ning Cheng comes out of seclusion, I will have him personally return the courtesy to the Drifting Snow Palace and the Zhangyi Dao Sect.”
“In that case, then I will leave first.” Master Qiong Hua was incomparably dry, coming and going as quickly as he could.
Seeing that Shi Qiong Hua had left, Sang Xiezhu also stood up and smiled at Elder Bei and said, “I’m leaving too, but I’ll be waiting for Senior Nephew Ning Cheng at the sect oh.”
Elder Pei hurriedly promised, “Don’t worry, Seventh Palace Master, after Ning Cheng comes out, I will definitely let him visit Pixue Palace.”
……
After sending away Shi Qiong Hua of the Zhangyi Dao Sect and Sang Xiezhu of the Piu Xue Palace, Elder Bei of the Lok Hong Sword Sect then asked, “Senior Brother Tantai, how true do you think what Shi Qiong Hua and Sang Xiezhu said is? This matter is too odd. Ning Cheng is just an inner sect disciple, is there a need for a sect marriage?”
Tantai Fei sneered, “Bullsh*t true, not even half a cent. If I’m not wrong, these two sects are both staring at Ning Cheng’s stuff.”
Bei Youfa also said indignantly, “Ning Cheng saved the little lives of their sect disciples, and they even counted on Ning Cheng, this good guy really can’t be a good guy. Senior Brother Tantai, if Ning Cheng had really agreed, I wonder how they would have gone about it. Steal Ning Cheng’s things and then kill Ning Cheng? I don’t think the Chopping Emotion Dao Sect and the Drifting Snow Palace are that underhanded, are they?”
Tantai Fei shook his head and said, “That wouldn’t be the case, these two sects were at least among the Ten Great Sects of the Heaven Continent. It would be easy to justify that the Zhan Eros Dao Sect wanted its disciples to form a dao couple with Ning Cheng. If the Emotion-Cutting Dao Sect wanted to cultivate to the peak, they would have to enter into love and then cut it off.
To put it bluntly, Shi Qiong Hua was only here to find a puppet for the disciples under her sect. After the female disciple under her sect had beheaded love in Ning Cheng, Ning Cheng would become a waste. And not only did Ning Cheng have to send good things to people, he also had to pad for them. Since she has found Ning Cheng, it means that the true disciple called Xu Yingdie already has an impression of Ning Cheng and can enter the love from him.”
“Alas, I knew this would happen, but there is a real possibility that the rest of the elders of the Rainbow Fallen Sword Sect would agree to this.” Elder Bei sighed.
Tantai Fei also sighed, “Actually, take me for example, I also agree. Although Shi Qionghua of the Zhanghong Dao Sect didn’t say so, I know that they will definitely give up the spirit stone mine they discovered together with our Rainbow Fall Sword Sect. For a true disciple to enter Emotion Chopping, plus a nine-coloured mirage stone, and a number of Spirit Cleansing True Dew. This business deal has long been calculated by the Chopping Emotions Daoist Clan, and it will not be a loss.”
“I won’t agree, I’ve observed that Ning Cheng has an upright character. Even though he has some Spirit Cleansing True Dew and even a Nine-Coloured Mirage Stone, these are all the disciple’s own opportunities. Unless the disciple himself is willing to contribute to the sect, the sect may not take the initiative to deprive him of them.” Bei Youfa immediately said.
Tantai Fei waved his hand for a moment, “These are beyond our control, if the Patriarch and most of the rest of the elders are in favour of it, there is no use for us to oppose it. But the Patriarch is an upright man, so he won’t agree. However, the fact that the Pixie Palace wants to marry its true disciple, Yin Kongchan, to Ning Cheng is a bit out of my expectation. If Piaosue Palace insists on having its disciple Yin Kongchan and Ning Cheng as a daoist couple, the advantage is a little greater than that of the Zhangyi Dao Sect.”
“Are you saying that the Drifting Snow Palace will provide the God Refining Ice and Snow Domain for us to share with the Fallen Rainbow Sword Sect?” Bei Youfa asked after him.
“I’m afraid that’s the case, and what they’re looking at is probably Ning Cheng’s Nine Coloured Mirage Stones and Spirit Cleansing True Dew as well. It’s just that choosing Yin Kongchan makes me a little confused.” Tantai Fei nodded and replied.
Bei Youfa sighed again, “If this is really the case, there is nothing I can do to help Ning Cheng, I can only hope that he will remain in seclusion in the Small Spirit Domain for a longer period of time. I do know a thing or two about Yin Kongchan of the Drifting Snow Palace, Yin Kongchan is bent on the Dao, even if she becomes a Daoist couple with Ning Cheng, she probably won’t really double cultivate with Ning Cheng.”
“This matter might not be like this as we guessed, there might even be deeper reasons in it. These two sects, even if they wanted to calculate Ning Cheng’s Mirage Stones and Spirit Cleansing True Dew, would not reasonably come up with such a bad idea. They completely had countless ways to make Ning Cheng willingly take them out. Could there really be another reason? Or is it something that we in the Rainbow Fallen Sword Sect don’t know about?” Tantai Fei muttered another sentence.
