Chapter 109 - Chapter 309: Four-Sect Conference

"Are you giving me orders?" Duan Yiwei immediately flew into a rage.

Jin Yu looked utterly puzzled, "What orders am I giving you? Isn't this area under the jurisdiction of your Qingxiao Pavilion?"

Duan Yiwei glared at Jin Yu.

This was the drawback of communicating with sword cultivators.

Sometimes, you simply couldn't tell whether they're doing it on purpose or completely unintentionally.

"Don't you want to help junior sister resolve this matter as soon as possible, so we can open the secret treasury earlier?" Jin Yu looked at him.

Duan Yiwei clenched his teeth and looked at Yun Jin, "Fine. I'll go find people for you. Once the matter of Luo Hua Mountain is resolved, we'll open the secret treasury immediately, right?"

Yun Jin nodded, "More or less."

Duan Yiwei let out a cold snort, "You'd better remember what you said."

He then directly walked out.

"Junior Sister Yun, you can be at ease now. Within a few days, everyone will definitely be here," Ye Liuqin said with a smile.

Yun Jin said with a face full of gratitude, "Thank you, seniors brothers and sisters. However, with such a big commotion, if there really are heretical cultivators on Luo Hua Mountain, I wonder if they'll be frightened and run away?"

Cheng Su raised an eyebrow, "There's no need to worry. I'll control a few small beasts to keep watch around Luo Hua Mountain. If there's any movement, we'll be able to react immediately."

"Thank you, Senior Sister." Only then did Yun Jin feel completely reassured.

After Yun Jin and Yu Songnian left.

The others couldn't help but chuckle in mild disbelief.

She came from a small place, after all. Having this reaction was understandable.

What they couldn't understand was how someone like this could cause the sect masters to personally instruct them to take good care of her.

Jin Yu was the least troubled by this. He stood up directly, "I'll go back and rest first. Once everyone arrives, we'll just flatten Luo Hua Mountain."

The others looked at one another and then dispersed as well.

Inside the room.

Jin Yu activated the Thousand-Li Transmission Talisman. This talisman had been personally given to him by the sect master, and it had been flashing continuously. It's clear that the sect master had something to say to him.

Jin Yu didn't dare to delay and quickly activated the talisman.

Ji Wusi's image immediately appeared before him.

Jin Yu respectfully performed a salute, "Sect Master."

Ji Wusi looked at him with interest, "You should have interacted with the owner of the main key by now. What's your impression?"

Ji Wusi naturally knew how astonishingly talented Yun Jin was. As for Jin Yu, he's a junior he valued quite highly. After meeting Yun Jin this time, Jin Yu should now understand the principle that beyond one mountain there are other mountains, and beyond one person there are other people.

Jin Yu thought for a moment and said, "This Junior Sister Yun is relatively timid. That's understandable, after all, she comes from a mid-tier sect and was suddenly dragged into such turmoil. It's only natural for her to panic a little. But Sect Master, don't worry. I will definitely protect her well."

Ji Wusi: "???"

Yun Jin?

Timid personality?

Had Jin Yu gone mad?!

For a moment, Ji Wusi was speechless.

Jin Yu thought Ji Wusi was worried and hurriedly said, "Sect Master needn't be concerned. Originally, I was worried that the other three holy lands might have other intentions. But now it seems that Beast Taming Sect and Xuandan Sect, like us, will help rebuild Wushuang Sect. Qingxiao Pavilion seems to have other thoughts, but as long as the other three holy lands unite, they won't be able to stir up any real trouble."

Ji Wusi continued to remained silent.

Was that what he was worried about?

Ji Wusi slowly said, "Aside from being timid, didn't you notice anything else?"

Anything else?

Jin Yu thought carefully and replied seriously, "Junior Sister Yun's Qi Luck should also be extremely strong."

Ji Wusi became interested, "How so?"

Jin Yu said, "She said she obtained the sword tomb inheritance by accident. Sect Master, doesn't that count as great Qi Luck??"

Ji Wusi fell silent once again.

After a long time, he asked, "So you believed whatever she said?"

Who could obtain Tianpo's recognition just by luck?!

Ji Wusi suddenly felt extremely irritated.

Were sword cultivators really all simple-minded with well-developed limbs?!

Ji Wusi couldn't help but ask, "What about the other holy lands? Do their disciples hold the same view?"

Jin Yu nodded, "Probably about the same."

Good.

That put Ji Wusi at ease.

It wasn't that sword cultivators were particularly foolish, it's that his little disciple was particularly good at pretending!

Indeed.

For so many years, disciples of the four holy lands had always been arrogant. Aside from their own peers, when had they ever taken others seriously?

Coupled with the fact that Canglan Kingdom was remote, and Yun Jin came from a mid-tier sect, how could they have imagined that she was pretending to be a pig to eat the tiger?

"Sect Master, is something wrong?" Jin Yu asked in confusion.

Ji Wusi said irritably, "Nothing's wrong. Just protect her properly."

"Yes." Jin Yu immediately acknowledged.

Ji Wusi's image then disappeared.

At the same time.

Yun Jin received a message from Ji Wusi.

"Timid personality? Just good luck?"

Upon hearing this, Yun Jin felt embarrassed.

Ai ya, so even Master knows now.

She replied, "I'm still young. Being timid is perfectly normal."

Ji Wusi: "...Play around in moderation. Don't go too far."

"Don't worry, Master. I know my limits," Yun Jin said confidently.

Ji Wusi smiled and didn't interfere further.

The little girl is young, if she liked to play, then let her play.

As long as she doesn't get anyone killed.

It's also a good opportunity to let Jin Yu and the others see how vast the world truly was, so they wouldn't always think that Heaven was first and they were second.

The world was so vast, who said the four holy lands must be invincible?

Let Yun Jin give them a good lesson.

Ji Wusi withdrew his thoughts, he still had other matters to attend to.

Regarding the matter of the Wushuang Sect secret treasury, the four holy lands had already dispatched disciples.

At the time, the situation was urgent, and the four holy lands had made their decisions independently, without consulting one another.

Now.

They needed to further discuss this matter.

Ji Wusi arrived at the main hall.

Together with several high-ranking members, he let his divine soul leave his body. Soon after, a vortex-like passage appeared in the hall.

Once their divine souls entered the passage, they arrived in an extradimensional space.

Inside the space.

People from the other holy lands were already present. With Ji Wusi's arrival, everyone was now assembled.

Ji Wusi smiled faintly and directly took the central seat.

As the de facto number one figure of the human race at present, he had both the strength and the status to do so.

Ji Wusi said calmly, "Today, we are gathered to discuss the reappearance of Wushuang Sect. I'll be direct. Sword Sage of Ten Thousand Daos and I were old friends. This time, Kunlun Sword Sect is willing to lend Wushuang Sect a helping hand."

Lin Xiao snorted coldly, "Past friendship is one thing, but the future sect master of Wushuang Sect seems to have some questionable aspects. Sect Master Ji, others may not know, but I know very clearly, you deliberately went to Tianxing Sect back then because you wanted to take Yun Jin as your disciple, didn't you?"

Ji Wusi raised an eyebrow, "That thought did indeed cross my mind. However, you forced her to swear that she would never join the four holy lands. Under such circumstances, taking her as a disciple would've been meaningless. I merely saw that her talent was passable and stayed to instruct her for a few days. A mere few days of guidance is not enough for me to make such a decision."

The matter of Ji Wusi taking Yun Jin as a disciple was known among a few internal elders.

Naturally, they wouldn't expose their own secrets before outsiders, so none of them spoke.

Lin Xiao found Ji Wusi's explanation believable.

After all, Yun Jin had personally been forced by him to swear an oath. A disciple who couldn't join a sect and couldn't bring Qi Luck benefits to it truly gave Ji Wusi no reason to take her in.

Unless Yun Jin's talent was so shocking that Ji Wusi would accept her without wanting anything in return.

But was that possible?

Lin Xiao didn't think so.
