The Feng Zun Journey
Desperate Asa
A cold wind blew past the mountains, but it could not dissipate the tension hanging in the air.
“Kneel for a while, if you still dare to talk nonsense, I will execute you.”
Feng Zun said calmly.
Rou Yin finally stopped her resistance and lowered her head in terror from Feng Zun, she could only suppress the shame and anger in her heart.
Yuan Shun who was wearing a jade green robe stiffened, and the other expressions turned erratic.
Zhuan Long stood not far from there, and he coldly turned his gaze to the cultivators of the Nine Lightning Sect in the distance.
Unlike Feng Zun, he had heard the name 'Nine Lightning Sect' many times over the past two months.
They were otherworldly factions based in the territory of the Feng Dynasty, and their overall strength and foundation were roughly comparable to the Mysterious Titan Sect.
However, Zhuan Long also knew that even though Feng Zun knew who they were, he would not care.
"Miss Tianba, you can proceed to tell me the problem" Feng Zun said gently.
Tianba nodded, then explained the entire chain of events.
The situation is not complicated.
Not long ago, Haoran was exploring the ruins in the Great Liangzu River, and found a single stalk of Emerald Soul Grass, an extremely rare medicinal plant.
However, just as he was about to take it, he suddenly gained competition from the Nine Lightning Sect.
In the end, his skill was superior, he finally managed to severely injure his opponent and obtain the Emerald Soul Grass.
However, due to this incident, the Nine Lightning Sect directed a glance and blamed Haoran.
As soon as he returned from the Liangzu Great River, the top experts of the Nine Lightning Sect started chasing him, leaving him with no other choice but to hide.
Tianba headed to the Terrace of the Continent Conference in hopes that the Mysterious Titan Sect, would uphold justice and save his teacher from this calamity.
This did not surprise Feng Zun at all, in the cultivation world, such an event was not at all strange.
"Miss Tianba, something seems to be wrong" said the jade-green-robed Yuan Shun coldly.
He straightened out, “Our Nine Lightning Sect has found the Emerald Soul Grass first, your teacher has attacked our students to snatch that rare object! Otherwise, how could we possibly pursue it so far for just a single stalk of spiritual medicine?”
Tianba knitted his brows and was just about to argue, but Feng Zun raised his hand and interjected, "In the competition for good fortune and treasure, right and wrong are insignificant, no matter what, and you don't have to argue with him."
He laughed, “In addition, I'm here to save you, so I don't care who's right and wrong, so why waste a word with them?"
The attitude and meaning of Feng Zun's words were already implied very clearly!
"Friends, if you really insist on getting involved, you will only bring trouble to yourself."
The tall beast-skinned man, Song He, said coldly. “When that time comes, not only will you fail to save Haoran, but you will also suffer because of this, is it worth it?"
"You're looking to die!"
Zhuan Long's expression darkened, and he prepared to attack.
However, Feng Zun waved at him, "Even if you kill him, it won't fix the difficulty that Mr. Haoran is going through."
After Zhuan Long thought about it, he finally understood.
That makes sense.
Even if now they were to help Tianba to kill this entire group, and even if they could guarantee no news to spread, the Nine Lightning Sect would definitely soon find out the death of his disciples, and they would definitely blame all of this on Tianba and Haoran!
"It looks like you're a smart man, Fellow Daoist."
When he heard Feng Zun's words, Yuan Shun looked relieved. “Haoran caused this problem, so only he can fix it. In my opinion, you should urge Miss Tianba to reveal the location of her teacher. That way, it will end well and profitably for all of us.”
Tianba's heart sank.
But then, Feng Zun asked, "Are the higher-ups of the Nine Lightning Sect going to participate in the Terrace Meeting of the Continent Conference?"
"That's right" Yuan Shun said solemnly.
"Daoist colleague, tell me, given her identity, if Miss Tianba asks for help on the Terrace of the Continent Conference, who will listen to her?"
Tianba bit his red lower lip, his expression gloomy, he felt despair and agitation.
He was not stupid, how could he fail to realize that even though Yuan Shun's words stung his ears, but he was not wrong?
In the past, with the identity of being an elder who had the high status of the Cloud Sword Sect, few people in the Tang Dynasty dared to provoke his teacher.
But times have changed!
The Cloud Sword Sect had subordinated itself to the Mysterious Titan Sect.
How could the Mysterious Titan Sect risk offending the Nine Lightning Sect just for its teacher?
