In every righteous holy land, there are many hidden strong men like the old man. The so-called venerable ones in the holy land are actually just the tip of the iceberg of the true strength of the holy land.
"I still remember what your divination results were three years ago, as well as the time at the Ascension Conference and the time before that. Uncle Master, your divination has never been correct once." The leader of the Tiandao Sect showed a helpless expression. His uncle Master was indeed obsessed with divination, but it was okay for small matters, but when it came to big things, there was no accuracy at all.
Take the divination three years ago for example. The old man predicted that the East Territory would be peaceful and there would be no problems. However, the Canglong Empire almost collapsed.
This can't be called peace, right?
The old man's face turned red. What the Tiandao Sect leader said was indeed hurtful. He had no way to refute it. After all, there was indeed a big problem with his divination results.
But this time it’s different, completely different!
He felt that his condition had never been so good. The speed and results of divination were extremely fast and clear, as if there was an answer always there, waiting for him to get it.
He dared to guarantee with his own personality that there would be no problem with the result of this divination!
"Let me tell you, I'm in very good condition this time. There will definitely be no problem with the divination result. If we don't seize this opportunity, big problems will occur!" The old man stamped his feet and said to the projection of the sect master anxiously.
The leader of the Tiandao Sect looked at the old man's appearance and his expression became conflicted. After thinking for a moment, he nodded slightly.
"Since you think the divination result is correct, why don't you lead the team to the southern border yourself?"
None of the venerables in Tiandao Sect who are able to work are free recently. There are quite a few masters in the body-building realm who can be sent to the Southern Territory, but based on the divination results that made his uncle so anxious, the Sect Master of Tiandao Sect felt that sending a few masters over might not be able to control the situation.
It just so happens that this retired old man is very concerned about this matter, so he might as well make use of his remaining energy and go to the southern border to see whether the divination result is correct or not.
"Okay, I've been waiting for you to say this! You said it, so you can't go back on your word!" The old man clapped his hands, as if he was afraid that the Tiandao Sect leader would go back on his word. "Then I'll go pick someone and send you some pills later!"
After saying that, the old man immediately cut off the communication and flew out of the hall like a gust of wind.
On the other side of the Tiandao Sect, the Sect Master looked at the call that was hung up directly with a stiff expression.
Why does my uncle seem to be getting more lively as he gets older? His personality wasn't that weird before, right?
Never mind. There won't be any problem in going to the southern border to take a look. Just treat it as a routine visit to observe the current status of the Suzaku Seal.
The sect leader sighed softly and moved his gaze to the mountain of documents in front of him, his eyes full of helplessness.
No wonder my master was so eager to hand over the position of sect leader to me. This position is really not that easy to sit in.
"Can't my disciples be as talented as me? They have only been at the Grandmaster level for so many years. I hope someone at the Venerable level can take over my position soon..."
……
While the whole world was in turmoil because of a divination result, the center of the storm, the Nan family in the southern border, seemed relatively quiet.
The Fire Lotus Sect seemed to be frightened by Ye Xin and no longer dared to be as aggressive as before, while the Nan Clan did not dare to take the initiative to provoke the Fire Lotus Sect. After all, it was their opponent who had the upper hand.
The two sides remained in a stalemate until finally a group of people came along to break the deadlock.
Three monks from Yao Chi landed in front of the Nan family's gate on flying swords and knocked on the door.
The Nan family, who had already observed the three rays of spiritual light descending, had already made preparations. As soon as the Yao Chi monks knocked on the door, they opened the door and happily welcomed the three monks from Yao Chi into their home.
"I have been looking forward to seeing you, Immortal Master, finally here!" The one with the highest status among the Nan family members who came to greet them was the only son of the Nan family head. Now that Nan Xiao is unable to move around easily, he is in charge of all external affairs of the Nan family.
His strength is not strong. Although he is more than ten years older than Nan Xiao, his cultivation is actually lower than Nan Xiao's. He has just broken through the Body Tempering Realm. It seems that he will never have the chance to reach the Grandmaster Realm in this lifetime.
However, he himself did not seem to be disappointed about this. Judging from his appearance alone, he looked very good and completely fit the description of a modest young man.
"We heard a lot of rumors on the way here, and most of them are related to your Nan family." The leader of the Yao Chi monks was a pretty girl. Her eyes did not linger on the young master of the Nan family, but went straight to the point and stated her purpose.
Investigate whether the Nan family is in collusion with the evil sect.
"Those are all rumors from the Fire Lotus Sect. Not only did they falsely accuse us of colluding with the Hehuan Valley, they also beat up the sword cultivator who came to question us. Now that immortal master is recovering from his injuries at our home!" Upon hearing what the girl said, the young master of the Nan family immediately showed an indignant expression. He clenched his fists, and his eyes gushed with anger that didn't seem fake. "What a bunch of unreasonable guys!"
"...I thought that the news was made up by someone else, but I didn't expect that the Fire Lotus Sect would actually dare to attack the Sword Sect cultivators?" The Yao Chi girl covered her mouth in surprise. The Fire Lotus Sect was really brave to treat a sword sect cultivator like this.
"That's right. That swordsman wanted to seek justice for our Nan family, but who could have thought that the Fire Lotus Sect would be so despicable?" The Nan family's young master sighed, "All the messengers we sent out were kidnapped by the Fire Lotus Sect, and they didn't even have a chance to defend themselves!"
Of course, the Nan family did not sit there waiting to die these days. They also tried hard to send out messages, wanting to let the world know about the dirty deeds done by the Huo Lian Sect. However, the people of the Nan family simply could not break out of the Huo Lian Sect's encirclement.
That’s why the Southern Territory is now filled with rumors spread by the Fire Lotus Sect, and no other voices.
"By the way, would you like to go and see that swordsman lady first? I can lead the way for you..."
Before the young master of the Nan family finished speaking, a cold voice came from not far away, "No need, I'm here already."
Several people looked in the direction where the voice came from, and saw Ye Xin, who looked slightly pale and was wearing a white dress, standing in the middle of the road. Next to her was a girl from the Nan family who looked a little at a loss.
"Master Nanyue, I can't stop her." Nan Ci gave Nanyue an innocent look.
She wanted Ye Xin to have a good rest, but Ye Xin insisted on getting up to see which righteous cultivators had come to the Nan family, and she couldn't stop him.
After weighing the pros and cons, she had no choice but to follow Ye Xin.
Ye Xin's gaze had already fallen on the Yao Chi girl. For some reason, she always felt that this girl gave her a very familiar feeling, as if they had met somewhere before.
But she searched her memory and could not remember when she had ever seen such a girl from Yao Chi.
Compared to Ye Xin's confusion, the Yao Chi girl's expression was much richer. She looked at Ye Xin who was observing her and whispered, "Isn't this a bit too coincidental?"
Although it was not strange to meet Ye Xin, a sword cultivator, here, but... the feeling of reunion after a long separation still made her feel a little emotional.
294. Similar and Different
"Your disguise skills are getting better and better..." Looking at Ye Qiuhan who was gradually recovering his original appearance in front of him, Ye Xin's expression became surprised.
They were now in the small courtyard that the Nan family had given to Ye Xin for recuperation. There was no one else around, so Ye Qiuhan did not maintain her disguise.
Ye Xin just didn't recognize Ye Qiuhan's appearance, but after Ye Qiuhan said "long time no see" in his own voice, she recognized the good friend in front of her.
"It's better to disguise myself when traveling outside. After all, my current appearance is too conspicuous." Ye Qiuhan pointed at his face and stated without the slightest narcissism.
After being tempered by the essence and blood of the divine beast, her appearance has surpassed the limits of what mortals can touch. Without any disguise, she would be the focus of everyone's attention wherever she goes.
And this is very troublesome.
Ye Qiuhan didn't want his every move to be closely watched by others.
"Indeed, you are indeed more radiant than a few years ago."
"I've been through a lot, some good and some bad... So, why are you here, Ye Xin?"
"Halfway through my training, I heard about the collusion between the Nan Family and the Demonic Path, so I hurried over. I didn't expect something like this to happen." Ye Xin's expression was a little bad. When she thought of everything that had happened in the Fire Lotus Sect not long ago, she couldn't control her inner anger.
After listening to Ye Xin's complete account of the whole incident, Ye Qiuhan's expression became unbelievable.
Is this reasonable?
The Fire Lotus Sect is a bit too bold. They actually dared to clash with the Sword Sect monks in this way. Do they really think that the Sword Sect dare not extend its influence to the southern border?
The Holy Land doesn't care about the Southern Territory because it's giving face to the indigenous people of the Southern Territory, not because it's afraid of you guys!
Now the Fire Lotus Sect is simply shameless and is openly colluding with the evil sect to snatch the Nan family's treasures. They are really not afraid of death!
“Are they serious?”
"At least you were serious when fighting me." Ye Xin, who was beaten badly, spread his hands.
She didn't know about other things, but the master definitely did not hold back. If she wasn't strong enough, she would have probably fallen into the hands of the master.
Even for a half-step grandmaster of the Sword Sect, it would be difficult to fight against an ordinary mid-stage grandmaster.
"But I didn't lose out either. The young sect leader was slashed by my sword, and his injury must be more serious than mine. It's a pity that I couldn't kill that evil villain at the same time."
Despite being blocked by a grandmaster, Ye Xin was able to injure the young master of the Fire Lotus Sect. This achievement is enough to live up to her title of the Sword Sect's direct descendant.
"Xiao Han, you've come at the right time. Let's go and raid the Fire Lotus Sect's base tonight and kill all those scums who are colluding with the Demonic Path!"
The three girls coming from Yao Chi are all genuine Grandmaster cultivators. Ye Xin did a quick calculation and found that three Grandmasters against one Grandmaster is a huge advantage.
Even though his injuries have not yet fully healed, it will definitely not be a problem to defeat the Fire Lotus Sect!
"Stop, stop, Ye Xin, don't be so excited!" Ye Qiuhan quickly reached out and held down Ye Xin who was about to move. Although he admired Ye Xin's innocent heart, he still had to think carefully about this matter.
Not long ago, Ye Xin was indeed facing only a grandmaster, but behind the Fire Lotus Sect is the Sect Alliance. There are many grandmasters in this alliance, and the Fire Lotus Sect even has a Venerable in charge!
In addition to the fact that the demons were very likely to have already joined the game, Ye Qiuhan felt that it was a bit bold to go to the Tuhuo Lianmen’s base camp now.
"We still don't know the specific situation, so it's better to wait until we find out the situation before taking action." Ye Qiuhan told Ye Xin all his concerns, "and your body hasn't fully recovered yet, so it won't be too late to take action after you have fully recovered."
"I'm almost recovered. The ointment prescribed for me by the doctor Miss Nan Ci found is very effective." Ye Xin immediately said that he was in great shape and he could chop down a hundred demons with a sword without even taking a breath.
"Doctor? There are such great doctors in the Southern Territory?"
Hearing Ye Xin's words, Ye Qiuhan narrowed his eyes slightly. Ye Xin did not hide how serious his injuries were just now.
It had only been a few days. How good a doctor could have allowed Ye Xin to recover to this level? Could it be that he had used some medicine with huge side effects?
Seeing Ye Qiuhan's slightly changed expression, Ye Xin guessed what her good friend was worried about. She was touched and said to Ye Qiuhan seriously, "She has really recovered. If you don't believe me, you can come and see for yourself."
As she said this, she stood up, turned her back, and began to unbutton her clothes.
As the clothes on his back fell off, Ye Qiuhan saw a fair back with almost no signs of injury, only a few slightly pink marks silently telling of the brutal battle that had taken place before.
He stretched out his hand and gently stroked Ye Xin's back. The light green spiritual energy seeped into the original wound. As the spiritual energy transmitted feedback to the wound, Ye Qiuhan's expression became even more strange.
It’s not that Ye Xin’s recovery was not good, but that Ye Xin recovered too well.
Even if the most powerful doctor in Yao Chi treated Ye Xin's injuries, he could probably only do this much, right?
But can the doctors in the Southern Territory really do this?
Ye Qiuhan didn't look down on the doctors in the Southern Territory, but she really couldn't imagine that there would be doctors with such superb medical skills in this small city.
"He recovered very well. There is not a single hidden injury left. The doctor is very capable." Ye Qiuhan murmured as his fingers left Ye Xin's back.
"But your breath is still a little weak, you should rest for a few more days... You said before that Nan Ci found a doctor for you, right?"
"Well, Miss Nan Ci said that the doctor didn't like to see people, and she only gained his recognition by chance." Ye Xin put on his clothes again and relayed Nan Ci's words to Ye Qiuhan.
"Where is Miss Nan Ci now? I will go find her and ask about the details of that doctor." Ye Qiuhan's intuition told him that this doctor must have a big secret.
Ye Xin pointed to the small courtyard next to her. She lived next to Nan Xiao, and Nan Ci, as Nan Xiao's maid, naturally lived with Nan Xiao.
"Ms. Nan Ci has not only been taking care of Miss Nan Xiao who was plotted against by the demon sect, but she also comes to take care of me from time to time. She is a rare kind person."
"She's right next to her, right? Okay, then I'll go talk to her. Ye Xin, you should have a good rest first, I'll be back soon." Ye Qiuhan nodded. She also wanted to go see the eldest lady of the Nan family who was ambushed by the evil spirit, and offer some help within her ability. Now they can solve the problem together.
After re-disguising himself, Ye Qiuhan left the courtyard where Ye Xin was and turned to walk into Nan Xiao's residence next door.
Coincidentally, Nan Xiao, who was sitting in a wheelchair, was being pushed by Nan Ci in the yard to bask in the sun. Seeing Ye Qiuhan come in, Nan Ci hurriedly lowered his head and whispered a few words in the ear of his eldest lady.
Ye Qiuhan didn't hear clearly what Nan Ci said to Nan Xiao, but judging from Nan Xiao's reaction, he was probably introducing him.
"Miss Ye...ha, come to think of it, the swordsman lady who lives next door is also named Ye." Nan Xiao gave a gentle smile and greeted Ye Qiuhan.
"She and I are old friends. I didn't expect to see her here. I'm sorry to trouble your Nan family to take care of her these days."
"Miss Ye was injured for the sake of our Nan family, so it is reasonable to help her. There is no need to thank her." Nan Xiao shook her head, but the expression on her face still allowed Ye Qiuhan to see her true thoughts.
She was still very grateful for Ye Qiuhan's gratitude.
After the greetings, Ye Qiuhan asked about the most important thing, which was how Nan Xiao was ambushed by the evildoers.
When this matter was mentioned, Nan Xiao's expression changed. She closed her eyes with a look of sorrow and replied softly, "I don't want to recall what happened that night anymore."
The whole person feels like a toy being tinkered with from inside to outside, and this feeling is not good at all.
Especially when the seal of spiritual consciousness was broken, that indescribable feeling was something Nan Xiao didn’t want to recall at all!
It was as if countless flexible tiny tentacles were stirring in his mind, turning up all his memories, even those things that he had already forgotten. Thanks to that white-haired girl, he could now recall everything from his childhood to his adulthood.
Including the dark history that she had forgotten, now she remembered it all!
"I'm sorry, Miss Ye, my eldest daughter has been quite traumatized. Those evildoers were so vicious." Nan Ci also spoke up to comfort his eldest daughter.
Nan Xiao had indeed recovered very well in the past few days just as Qian Lin had said, but Qian Lin still underestimated the psychological trauma he had caused to Nan Xiao.
It will probably take some time for this young lady to come out of this shadow.
"It's okay, I overstepped my bounds." Seeing Nan Xiao so grief-stricken as if his innocence had been tarnished, Ye Qiuhan dared not ask any more questions.
If he asked a few more questions, this girl would probably cry and jump into the river, Ye Qiuhan suddenly had this thought in his mind.
But then, a fragrance coming from Nan Xiao attracted Ye Qiuhan's attention.
"The incense used by Miss Nan Xiao... why does it feel like the soothing incense of our Yao Chi?" Ye Qiuhan moved closer. She used to use this kind of incense frequently, and it is basically impossible for her to make a mistake now.
However, this is not something worth being surprised about. The calming incense produced in Yao Chi is not only used by Yao Chi disciples. There are many shops selling this kind of incense in Kunlun City.
This kind of calming incense is a best-selling product of Yao Chi. It is quite normal for the Nan family to prepare calming incense for the injured eldest lady.
"It's from Yaochi..."
