Chapter 137: Hongmen Banquet, Visit to the Long Family

“Someone! Give the Sect Master a proper burial.”

After doing everything, Ye Lin stood in mid-air and slowly said.

The Inner Sect Disciples below immediately understood, and instantly took out a coffin from a treasure vault. Eight Inner Sect Disciples carried the coffin and walked into the distance.

“Grand Elder, go take a look.”

After Ye Lin finished speaking, he flew towards Du Peak.

“Yes.”

Looking at Ye Lin’s back, the Grand Elder bowed, meaning he was afraid the Sect Master wasn't completely dead yet.

“Grand Elder, did you know about this long ago?”

“Exactly, Grand Elder, aren't you too much? Such a big matter and you didn't give us a heads-up first? You scared us to death.”

After Ye Lin disappeared, all the Elders collectively breathed a sigh of relief.

Ye Lin’s Aura just now was too strong, so strong that it suffocated them.

“This… I didn't know either. Don't ask, don't ask. Go do what you need to do. Oh, right, immediately give orders to prepare the Sect Master's funeral.”

“He was, after all, the former Sect Master of my Qingyun Sect. Burying him directly would be impolite. Let all Disciples know about this matter, so his death can be a bit more glorious.”

“As for how he died, just write that the Sect Master colluded with evil devils, was discovered by the Saint, and after the Saint's persuasion, he remained unrepentant. Therefore, for the sake of the world's common people, the Saint personally killed the Sect Master.”

After the Grand Elder finished speaking, he flicked his sleeve and left.

The other Elders looked at the Grand Elder’s back, their eyes filled with admiration.

This guy is a genius! Look at how beautifully he handled this matter.

No wonder you're the Grand Elder.

Ashamed… ashamed!!!

“Golden Core Stage is indeed formidable. Immediately after Breakthrough, I was able to kill the Sect Master, who was at the Golden Core Stage Middle Stage, with one strike.”

“However, the Sect Master’s lifespan was already at its limit, and his combat power was less than one-tenth of his peak, so it cannot be compared.”

“Then let's see about tomorrow's Hongmen Banquet.”

Ye Lin stood by the window with his hands behind his back, his eyes flickering, not knowing what he was thinking.

In a flash, a day passed.

On this day, Ye Lin and Chu Xue stood side by side in the Sect Leader's Great Hall. Below, Inner Sect Disciples and Elders from various factions had all arrived, looking up at the two of them.

“gentlemen, this time, you don’t need to go. Just stay here with peace of mind.”

Looking at the Disciples and Elders below, Ye Lin said softly. Going this time, there was a high possibility of a Golden Core Stage war breaking out. Taking these people along would just be sending them to be cannon fodder.

“Saint, Tenth Elder, be careful in all things.”

The Grand Elder bowed slightly to the two, then said.

He knew in his heart that if he and the others went, they would only be a burden.

This time was also the most challenging for Qingyun Sect.

If they won, Qingyun Sect's dominant position would be even more secure, and the major forces would not dare to cause trouble again. If they lost, Qingyun Sect would be annihilated.

This time, it concerned the Sect's survival.

“Alright, we're leaving.”

Seeing this, Ye Lin waved his hand casually and said, this time, they must win.

If anything went wrong, he could just pull Little Red out and kill everyone.

Now, Little Red killed Golden Core Stage Cultivators as if it were child's play.

“Respectfully seeing off the Saint and Tenth Elder.”

Watching their figures disappear, the Grand Elder then turned to look behind him.

Now that the two had left, his authority was the greatest, of course, that was on the premise that the Grand Elder did not appear.

“Now I announce that the entire Sect, from top to bottom, will prepare for the Sect Master's inauguration ceremony. If all goes smoothly, when the Saint returns, he will be the Qingyun Sect Saint.”

“If it doesn't go smoothly…”

Mid-sentence, the Grand Elder stopped speaking. Everyone present was intelligent. They would understand without being told. Those who didn't understand were already dead.

On the other side, in mid-air, Ye Lin and Chu Xue were leisurely heading towards the Long family. A young man flying on a sword stood beside them, following behind the two.

This was a Long family Disciple. When the two of them came out, they found this Long family Disciple had been squatting outside the Qingyun Sect Sect.

Presumably, he was there to deliver a message.

“Both of you are great Golden Core Stage Cultivators. Your speed should not be so slow. Please hurry. My family's patriarch and honored guests have been waiting for some time. Please do not delay.”

Seeing the two so slow, the person behind them became anxious.

These two were clearly great Golden Core Stage Cultivators, so why was their walking speed so slow? It was even slower than a Foundation Establishment Initial Stage Cultivator's speed.

“What? You're going to dictate whether I look at the scenery along the way?”

Ye Lin glanced at the person.

“I wouldn't dare, I wouldn't dare.”

Looking at Ye Lin’s face, he still cowered. A great Golden Core Stage Cultivator could kill him like slaughtering a dog.

Forget it, slow is slow, it's fine.

Originally, it only took a few minutes for a great Golden Core Stage Cultivator to go from Qingyun Sect to the Long family. This short amount of time was forcibly stretched to an hour by Ye Lin and Chu Xue.

Upon arriving at the Long family, the vast Long family was eerily quiet. Only the Long family patriarch stood at the entrance, looking up at the two of them with a smile on his face.

“Junior Ye Lin, greets the Long family patriarch.”

Long Xuan looked at Ye Lin in front of him and smiled slightly.

Ever since he learned yesterday that Ye Lin had broken through to the Golden Core Stage at the age of twenty, he was greatly shocked.

One must know that he was now over a hundred years old and had only just broken through to the Golden Core Stage. Compared to that, there was no comparison at all.

“Nephew is truly a Dragon and Phoenix among men! Breaking through to the Golden Core Stage at the age of twenty has truly shocked this old man. Quick, please come in.”

“Fellow Daoist, did his Elder not come?”

Long Xuan looked behind the two, inevitably a bit confused.

The Elder he referred to was precisely the Qingyun Sect Grand Elder.

“My Senior Brother, his Elder, still needs to guard Qingyun Sect. For this small matter, my Disciple and I are enough to come here.”

Chu Xue smiled slightly at Long Xuan and said.

Ostensibly, she was telling Long Xuan that Qingyun Sect currently still had Golden Core Stage Masters guarding it, so he shouldn't think of taking advantage of the opportunity to launch a sneak attack.

Indeed, upon hearing Chu Xue's words, Long Xuan's expression changed slightly. Although he hid it very well, it was still caught by Ye Lin.

“Hahaha, very well, please come in, please come in.”

Long Xuan's expression remained the same. Ye Lin and Chu Xue walked side by side into the Long family's Great Hall. At the very top of the Long family's Great Hall sat the Long family Old Ancestor, a great Master of the Golden Core Stage Middle Stage.

Below, sat two red-haired, red-browed old men. The two old men exuded the dangerous Aura of the Golden Core Stage Middle Stage.

As soon as Chu Xue and Ye Lin stepped in, everyone's gazes immediately fell upon them.

When the two old men saw Chu Xue, a hint of admiration flashed in their eyes.

The higher the cultivation, the more Transcendent the entire Aura, and the more attractive one becomes.

“Above is my Long family Old Ancestor. As for these two, the one on the left is the Fire God Sect Grand Elder, Wu Yan, and the one on the right is the Fire God Sect Second Elder, Wu Huo.”

Long Xuan stood beside the two and introduced them one by one.

“Hahaha, Fire God Sect Grand Elder Wu Yan greets this Fairy. May I know your Fairy's name?”

Wu Yan burst out laughing, stood up, and came before Chu Xue, bowing slightly.

And this scene was all seen by Ye Lin.

“You jest. I am but a small woman, not worthy of being called a Fairy. Please have some self-respect.”

After Chu Xue finished speaking, she followed Ye Lin to a nearby seat and slowly sat down.

“May I know why the Long family patriarch so eagerly invited our Qingyun Sect’s great Golden Core Stage Cultivator to come? Why don’t we discuss it now?”

“My Master and I still have important matters to attend to, and time is very tight. Please do not delay.”

Ye Lin picked up the teapot, poured a full cup for Chu Xue, then poured a full cup for himself, and said softly.

Wu Yan, on the other hand, stood rooted to the spot with cupped fists. Chu Xue had directly ignored him just now, which made him extremely angry.
