Chapter 651: Chapter 519: Coming at the Wrong Ti Chapter 651: Chapter 519: Coming at the Wrong Ti Yan Chongzhang’s palms stopped midair, his gaze shifting to the Seven Sons of South Hong with a tinge of confusion.
For so inexplicable reason, he had detected an odd implication in Shen Yi’s words.
It was as though this young cultivator was not particularly acquainted with the group of Daozi.
Could it be that everyone had guessed wrong?
A bold conjecture suddenly flashed through Yan Chongzhang’s mind. Since these people had co to pay their respects to the sect together, he had subconsciously regarded Shen Yi as one of the South Hong Seven Sons’ cultivators.
Could it possibly be… that this was a misconception from the very beginning?
Could it be that Shen Yi was rely sowhat related to the South Hong Seven Sons and traveled with them, without actually being a fellow sect cultivator?
At that thought, Yan Chongzhang shook his head. Regardless, such a situation was definitely unacceptable.
Given Hongze’s vast and perilous nature, it wasn’t just any exceptional prodigy who could claim to roam freely, let alone those who had fully matured into the Unity Realm Stage.
With so many demons and countless dangerous places, one inattentive step could lead to doom.
Just like these cultivators who grew up in Western Hong, when they traveled, they looked for several fellow sect mbers to accompany them, providing mutual support. Even if sothing happened, at least they had the chance to get the ssage out, giving their backing forces ti to respond.
Not to ntion soone like Shen Yi, a newcor to this place.
To speak bluntly, he might not even recognize the paths and could very likely step directly into trouble.
However, Yan Chongzhang refrained from saying too much. It wasn’t the place for outsiders from Ban Shan Sect to interfere, and the Daozi of South Hong seed experienced enough surely to prevent Shen Yi from acting recklessly.
Yet what surprised the two from Ban Shan Sect was…
Wei Yuanzhou and the others looked clearly worried, wanting to say sothing, yet they exchanged glances without anyone taking the initiative to speak.
In the end, it was Su Hongxiu who furrowed her brows and moved closer; she seed to have guessed sothing and struggled to arrange her words before whispering, “I will remind them… not to affect your special preferences.”
“…”
The two from Ban Shan Sect turned back in astonishnt.
Wei Yuanzhou and Bai Wu stood rooted to the spot, especially Wei Yuanzhou, whose lips twitched twice, his eyes full of bewildernt.
He found it hard to imagine when Su Hongxiu had beco so well acquainted with Sect Master Shen.
Special preferences?
Shen Yi’s temples throbbed, and he slowly turned his gaze towards Su Hongxiu. Since leaving the Nanyang Sect, he had grown accustod to not showing his emotions, to avoid letting others perceive the plight of Nanyang Treasure Land.
But now, he was truly struggling to keep his composure.
What on earth was this Sword Daozi talking about? Had straightforward slander turned into spreading rumors now?
“Ahem.”
Under Shen Yi’s dark gaze, whether due to the pressure of his status as Sect Master or so other reason, Su Hongxiu started to feel anxious.
This was an emotion she rarely had the chance to experience.
“That’s not what I ant.”
Su Hongxiu, too, realized her words could easily be misunderstood. Her usually stern pretty face began to show signs of embarrassnt. She turned to the side, avoiding the gaze of the young man in black, and waved her hands, feigning calmness as she explained, “I just think it’s far too dangerous.”
This scene witnessed by everyone…
The two from Ban Shan Sect hadn’t yet registered any particular feelings, but a strong sense of shock welled up in Bai Wu’s eyes.
Damn it! He had known Su Hongxiu for so many years and had never seen her express such emotions.
“…”
Shen Yi gave the woman a cold glance, then withdrew his gaze, nodding lightly as he said, “No need to worry, I have my own plans.”
To say he had plans was not exactly true.
Mainly because in this unfamiliar territory of Western Hong, the companions Shen Yi trusted the most were the two Sub-hall Masters from the Ten Thousand Demon Hall.
However, due to the incident with the envoy from the Southern Dragon Palace, these two Town Stones had caught the attention comparable to the Ke Family Crown Prince of the Unity Realm Stage.
Until Shen Yi was confident that he could protect himself from a Unity Realm Stage Great Demon,
he couldn’t let anyone know that these two Town Stones were related to him, not even the Daozi, much less the Sect Masters of the South Hong Seven Sons.
Shen Yi was not used to entrusting such life-and-death matters to others.
“Sure.”
Su Hongxiu also nodded. Considering soone who could save the Nanyang Treasure Land single-handedly and had gained the approval of the South Hong Seven Sons, quickly ascending to the position of Sect Master, a simple reminder was sufficient.
Even if she felt uneasy, as a Daozi, it wasn’t her place to make decisions for a Sect Master. To continue would be overstepping the bounds.
In an Immortal Sect, the Sect Master’s word is as heavy as nine tripods of bronze; of course, they must also be prepared to bear the consequences.
“Fine?”
Yan Chongzhang could no longer hold back; what were these Daozi thinking for things to end like this?
The South Hong Seven Sons might be willing to let Shen Yi take risks, but he, from Ban Shan Sect, could not afford it!
Before he could speak, however, the Daozi had already approached, “Daoist Yan, let’s walk and talk.”
Wei Yuanzhou put away the disappointnt in his heart. The trivial matters of young love were no longer important; the most crucial thing was to prevent this Daozi from going any further, otherwise, Sect Master Shen of Nanyang would sooner or later beco Sect Master Shen of Ban Shan.
“I really don’t understand you all.”
Yan Chongzhang helplessly clenched his teeth and shot Yang Yunheng a aningful glance.
The Great Elder of Ban Shan Sect hesitated, then grasped the implication and quickly retrieved a Jade Slip from the Storage Treasure, “Shen Yi, this is a map of the nearby area. Since you are new to Western Hong, even if you must venture out, you must thoroughly study this item first.”
