Chapter 1069: Chapter 1066: Undercurrents Swirling_1 Chapter 1069: Chapter 1066: Undercurrents Swirling_1 Yang Chen raised his eyebrows. It seed that Yu Kui had received so news about Wang Yueru and was mistaking him for a man of lust.
How could Huangdao Sect be so ignorant, not seeing the truth?
As these thoughts crossed his mind, he shook his head and lost any interest in the Huangdao Sect. He said imdiately, “Sect Leader Yu, I’ve already said what I had to say. I’m afraid I won’t be joining you. Let’s go.”
“Yang, don’t take our kindness for granted. You really think you’re a big shot, don’t you? You dare to refuse the invitation of our Huangdao Sect? You’re only a dog of the Donghuang Sect, and you’ll suffer if you ss with us,” one of the martial artists beside Yu Kui burst into a rage.
Upon hearing this, Yang Chen remained indifferent, turned around, and looked at Yu Kui and the martial artist beside him.
The one who burst into rage was an elderly martial artist, likely at least an elder position in their sect. Since Yu Kui didn’t even rebuke him, it wasn’t hard to judge that although the words ca from soone else, they expressed Yu Kui’s thoughts.
Yang Chen finally saw the true face of Huangdao Sect.
“Huangdao Sect… haha, I’m really looking forward to how you will make regret this,” Yang Chen said slowly, before turning away and leaving without a care.
Ignoring them was the cruelest punishnt for the Huangdao Sect.
You invite them, but they don’t even bother to acknowledge you, not taking you to heart.
This was an enormous humiliation, especially for the powerful lineup led by Yu Kui.
For a mont, many people began to discuss the matter secretly.
Zhou Qing and Yang Chen returned to Donghuang Sect, and the news spread quickly.
At this point, Zhou Qing said furiously, “Master, this Huangdao Sect is really going too far. What do they take you for? Just because they invited you, you must go? What a joke! Just look at their attitude. At first, I thought Emperor Jue Ming was an impressive figure, but now I see he’s really disappointing.”
“This matter has nothing to do with Emperor Jue Ming. Although he’s not a good guy, he’s not comparable to these people.” Yang Chen shook his head.
He didn’t have any particular opinion about Emperor Jue Ming and didn’t think this matter was sothing he had arranged. If Emperor Jue Ming was just a little smarter, he would know that it’s impossible to win Yang Chen over, especially at this critical mont when the alliance was just established – it would be going against all reason.
But the people of Huangdao Sect did not have such intelligence and dared to invite him.
Huangdao Sect didn’t think deeply and didn’t know that if they mishandled this, it would be enough to cause a huge disaster.
“They really don’t consider the big picture.” Yang Chen rubbed his eyebrows.
If he had left with Yu Kui today and ultimately refused him, this would have created an image of him being unfaithful and trying to take advantage of both sides. At that ti, Huangdao Sect and Donghuang Sect would inevitably have differences, with the most frightening scenario being their hearts not being in alignnt.
His earliest grievances with the Huangdao Sect began when Jue Ming Great Emperor’s two less valued disciples tried to obtain the Slaughter God Spear in order to please him, eventually targeting the Starfire within him.
At that ti, he could already see that the Great Emperor Jue Ming was barely managing his subordinates, as they were acting without thinking things through.
“Master, what should we do now?” Zhou Qing asked.
“Let’s return to Donghuang Sect first. My stance should have been made clear, and Donghuang Sect should be able to see that.” Yang Chen spoke slowly: “Our best course of action now is to remain silent, not intervening in anything else!”
“Yes, Master!” Zhou Qing replied imdiately.
Indeed, the news spread quickly. In just half a day, the matter reached Ye Xu’s ears.
When Ye Xu heard from his subordinates about Yang Chen being invited by Huangdao Sect, he said, “What, Huangdao Sect dares to try to win over Yang Xilin at this critical juncture? This is utterly absurd. Yu Kui is known for acting without thinking, but for him to go this far! What choice did Yang Chen make?”
He was prepared that if Yang Chen were to be swayed, he would imdiately lead the Donghuang Sect mbers to turn against the Huangdao Sect.
This action was like digging their foundation from underneath, especially targeting the person that Donghuang Sect could least afford to lose right now.
“Sect Leader, rest assured, Master Yang is loyal to our Donghuang Sect without any doubt. Yu Kui first invited Master Yang to talk further, but Master Yang refused without hesitation. Later on, Yu Kui seed dissatisfied and put forth so conditions. Even after the threats and enticents, Master Yang did not give in!” one of his subordinates reported.
Upon hearing this, Ye Xu nodded with satisfaction, then said joyfully, “Young friend Yang’s unwavering loyalty to our Donghuang Sect is a great blessing. After this, we must value him more. Proclaim this: Yang Chen may be a Donghuang Sect vassal, but his status is no different from any mber of our sect. Moreover, he holds a very high position within our sect, and anyone who dares to humiliate him is against the Donghuang Sect!”
“Sect Leader, I will handle this matter. However, Yu Kui is truly too reckless and presumptuous. He even dared to openly threaten young friend Yang. I think it’s necessary to report this to the Great Emperor so that Yu Kui doesn’t cause more trouble at this critical mont,” the subordinate suggested.
Ye Xu rubbed his eyebrows, “Emperor Jue Ming has always been quite hands-off when dealing with his subordinates, and he doesn’t pay much attention to Yu Kui’s reckless actions. However, given the current situation where the alliance is about to be ford, we cannot let him get away with this. I will report this to the higher-ups, and you don’t need to worry about it.”
“Yes, Sect Leader!” The subordinate imdiately left to handle his tasks upon hearing this.
Watching his subordinate depart, Ye Xu sighed softly, “Ah, young friend Yang, you’re really a good prospect in all aspects, but why do you have no interest in Jinling and insist on choosing an unknown wild woman as your partner?”
Now, he really couldn’t find any faults with Yang Chen, except for this one flaw.
…
anwhile, Emperor Bai Wei erged from his short retreat, and one of the first things he did was to probe the soul beads he used to communicate with Yang Chen.
The mont his soul entered the beads, he imdiately sensed the ssage within.
“Oh? Interesting. This little guy found a clue so soon. Considering how cryptically he phrased his ssage, it’s likely related to so incident that recently occurred. I’ll have to look into this matter thoroughly. Teng Long… co here, tell about any unusual activities Yang Xilin has been involved in recently,” Emperor Bai Wei directly addressed the topic and inquired about Yang Chen’s recent abnormal activities.
