Chapter 1778 Departure from the Shen Family
“I did nothing wrong. If I had known that those treasures were put there by my grandmaster, I wouldn’t have dared to take them even if I had a thousand lives,” Hu Jing replied.
"Uncle-Master, why not cripple her strength, make her swear never to reveal the secret of the Heavenly Spiritual Vein, and then expel her from the sect?" Sect Master Yan suggested his solution.
"Master, you actually want to expel me from the sect?" Hu Jing's eyes widened upon hearing this.
"Hu Jing, with your character, the sect can no longer tolerate you," Sect Master Yan said coldly.
"In that case, I'll leave myself." After saying that, Hu Jing stood up and prepared to leave quickly.
She wouldn't make any vows; she believed that after leaving the Void Sect, she could still establish herself in other sects by relying on information about the spiritual veins of heaven and earth.
Upon seeing her retreating figure, Lord Yuhang instantly killed her with a single move.
After Hu Jing collapsed, her eyes were filled with resentment; she died with her eyes wide open, unable to rest in peace!
"You're all too soft-hearted. If this kind of trash is released, it will bring endless trouble to our sect," said Lord Yu Hang, glancing at Lord Yu Miao and Sect Master Yan beside him.
Yan Li: ...
When it comes to decisiveness and ruthlessness, His Excellency Yuhang is the best.
After all, if you don't cut the weeds at the root, they'll grow back in the spring!
"Alas... We were master and disciple, and I originally wanted to spare his life." Sect Master Yan sighed.
Finally, everyone present except Yan Li was required to swear an oath never to reveal the matter of the Heavenly Spirit Vein.
After all, the allure of the spiritual veins of heaven and earth is too great for cultivators. If the news were to leak out, it would be a catastrophic disaster for the Void Sect!
"Elder Yan, when should this formation be set up?" Sect Master Yan asked Yan Li.
Once the protective array at the back mountain is set up, the safety of the spiritual veins of heaven and earth can be guaranteed.
"We can do it now." Yan Li said, taking out a compression array from her spatial storage.
She channeled her spiritual power into the compression array, and in an instant, a massive and powerful protective array shielded the entire back mountain.
Yan Li handed over control of the protective array to Lord Yu Miao, Lord Yu Hang, and Sect Master Yan.
After that, she took out a compressed spirit-gathering array to cover the entire spiritual vein of heaven and earth, and then handed over control of the spirit-gathering array to the three people.
"Alright, you can start building the training room now." Yan Li shrugged.
Everyone:...
I originally thought that setting up two such powerful formations would take at least half a year or even several years.
Unexpectedly, Yan Li directly unleashed the compression formation, completing it almost instantly!
His Highness Yu Hang's gaze toward Yan Li shone even brighter.
"Alright, I'll arrange for people to come and build the training room tomorrow." Sect Master Yan's eyes were full of excitement.
After all that commotion, it got dark again.
"Master, what should we do with Hu Jing's body?" Gong Hang asked, pointing to Hu Jing's body on the ground.
"Send someone to send them back to the Hu family," Sect Leader Yan said.
"Yes." Gong Hang nodded and went to deal with Hu Jing's body.
"By the way, Master, Uncle-Master, this is Shen Jing. I've decided to have him replace Hu Jing and become my second disciple," Sect Master Yan said, pulling Shen Jing aside.
"Yan Qing, you can't just add another disciple like this, can you? He should be the seventh disciple after you." Lord Yu Miao was speechless.
"Gong Hang and the others are already used to their current rankings, and they have no objections to Shen Jing taking over as the second disciple," Sect Master Yan replied.
Everyone:...
Like master, like disciple; even their bizarre ideas are the same.
"Since you all have no objections, let's find a time to hold the apprenticeship ceremony." Lord Yu Miao nodded.
"Thank you, Master. Thank you, Grandmaster. Thank you, Grandmaster Uncle." Shen Jing stepped forward and bowed appreciatively upon hearing this.
"This kid is indeed much more pleasing to the eye than Hu Jing." His Highness Yu Hang was very satisfied with Shen Jing.
After the group finalized how the training room should be built, they left the back mountain and returned home.
Yan Li returned to Si Chuchu's courtyard to stay. Although her own elders' quarters had been prepared, she still wanted to stay in Si Chuchu's courtyard because it was more lively.
However, she had Wen Mi move in directly.
The next day.
As soon as Yan Li stepped out of the room, she saw Shen Qianqian sitting there with red eyes.
"What's going on? Who bullied our Qianqian?" Yan Li walked over and looked at her with amusement.
Especially when she saw Si Chuchu sitting next to Shen Qianqian, she also looked very angry.
However, given their strength, it's estimated that few people could bully them.
"Grandma, the Shen family has gone too far! Their ancestor has already emerged from seclusion, yet they sent a message to Sixth Senior Sister, ordering her to return and take back the weapon and magical beast you gave her. It's obvious they're trying to rob her outright!" Si Chuchu said angrily.
"Grandma, I'd better return all the treasures you gave me to you, otherwise they'll get them for free. I never thought our ancestors would turn out like that." Shen Qianqian looked up at Yan Li.
"Don't cry, your great-grandmother will go back with you and see who dares to touch you." Yan Li's tone was extremely cold.
“That’s right, Sixth Senior Sister, I’ll go too.” Si Chuchu nodded immediately upon hearing this.
"We'll go too." At this moment, Gong Hang and the others walked in from outside, clearly having also learned about the Shen family sending a message to Shen Qianqian.
"Okay, thank you, Grandma, and thank you, fellow senior brothers and junior sisters." Shen Qianqian nodded, deeply moved.
She knew that as long as her great-grandmother was alive, no one could bully her.
"When do we leave?" Yan Li asked Shen Qianqian.
"We're setting off today. Old Man Shen's birthday is the day after tomorrow, so if we leave today, we'll arrive just in time," Shen Qianqian said.
“Alright, then let’s go tell Sect Leader Yan and set off.” Yan Li nodded.
"I'll go tell them," Si Chuchu said, and then ran off towards the outside of the courtyard.
Upon hearing that Yan Li and the others were planning to accompany Shen Qianqian back to the Shen family, Lord Yu Miao and the others naturally did not object.
He simply instructed Si Chuchu that if the Shen family dared to bully them, they should use the sect to suppress the Shen family.
After making their preparations, Yan Li and the others left the Void Pavilion and headed towards the Shen family's location.
At this moment, the Ninth Elder, Wang Ji, and an old man were gathered in the Ninth Elder's courtyard.
"Old Gao, you promised me you'd give each of my two disciples a magical beast." The Ninth Elder looked at Old Gao.
“That’s natural.” Old Gao nodded.
Anyway, I have five magical beasts. Although it hurts to give away two, I still have three tamed magical beasts left. So, I still made a big profit.
“Then I…” Wang Ji said, looking at the Ninth Elder and Old Man Gao.
"These are advancement pills, consider it your reward. Remember to return the magical beast after the sect competition." Old Gao took out a bottle of advancement pills and tossed it to Wang Ji.
"Of course." Wang Ji put away the advancement pill, his eyes filled with excitement.
"Ninth Elder, I would like to enter the back mountain of your sect to find some medicinal herbs. Please take me there." After saying this, the old man looked at the Ninth Elder.
