Chapter 570: Chapter 570: Never Allow the Ninth Faction to Erge [First Update] Chapter 570: Chapter 570: Never Allow the Ninth Faction to Erge [First Update] Li Xiaoyao, he was actually still alive! And he had even killed the strongest among the younger generation of the four major Sects.
Explosive news followed one after another. Just when the Guardians of the four major Sects joined forces to kill Li Xiaoyao, a mysterious woman in green appeared. With a casual move, she intimidated all four Sects and annihilated all the Elders and Disciples of the Da Lin Temple.
“Buzz~”
The cellphone vibrated on the desk. Looking down, it was Cheng Dongliang.
Cheng Dongliang did not expect the second call to get through so quickly.
“Director Chen, I…”
Before he could report the situation, Director Chen cut him off and took the initiative to ask, “Get in touch with Li Xiaoyao as soon as possible. I will find a way to get the botanical garden back from Gui Hai. You and Li Xiaoyao must maintain close contact in the future.”
Cheng Dongliang was stunned for a mont. Hearing Director Chen’s tone, it seed that he already knew what had happened in the botanical garden.
...
“I have already t Xiaoyao.”
“You’ve t him?” Now it was Director Chen’s turn to be flabbergasted. He asked, “Where did you et him? Where is he now?”
“You don’t know?” Cheng Dongliang felt as if he had thought amiss. After pondering for a few seconds, he relayed the happenings at the botanical garden exactly as they occurred.
After listening, the shock in Director Chen’s heart could not be expressed in words.
“Where are you? I’ll co to find you, and we can et in person to talk.”
“Okay, I will wait for you at ho.”
Half an hour later, the two t at the villa.
Director Chen seed outwardly calm, but the flashes of excitent in his eyes could not be completely concealed.
“Tell again what happened in the botanical garden.”
So Cheng Dongliang recounted the incident once more. After listening, Director Chen took out a pack of cigarettes, offered him one, and lit one for himself. Slowly exhaling a puff of smoke, he said, “To my knowledge, Gui Hai’s cultivation level is at least at the Spirit Condensation Realm, and it seems he is not far from the Nascent Soul Realm. This Li Xiaoyao was able to defeat Gui Hai of the Spirit Condensation Realm with cultivation at the Golden Core Realm. Tsk tsk, such strength, let alone in Ling City, even throughout the entire Lu Province, there are few who can compare to him.”
Cheng Dongliang did not expect Director Chen to hold such a high opinion of Li Xiaoyao. His heart was filled with delighted surprise upon hearing these words.
Director Chen looked at him with a smile in his eyes and said, “Old Cheng, we have known each other for so many years, I won’t keep secrets from you. I’ll be direct with you.”
“Go ahead.” Cheng Dongliang had a vague guess that what Director Chen was about to share with him could be a state secret, his excitent already reaching its peak.
Director Chen composed himself and said, “Currently, our Xuan Country’s major cultivation Sects and Martial Artists families are getting a bit too nurous.”
A bit too nurous?
Cheng Dongliang knew that with Director Chen’s position and status, none of his words would be said lightly. His statent about being too nurous probably held significant implications.
“What does Director Chen an?”
Director Chen’s eyes slightly darkened as he said, “The Eight Great Sects of Xuan Country, the oldest of which dates back 1,600 years. These Sects have been passed down from ancient tis, and we cannot intervene. However, at the very least, we absolutely do not allow for the ergence of a ninth great Sect.”
“Beneath the Eight Great Sects of Xuan Country are the 108 Sects. Among the top ten of these 108 Sects, so may not have the heritage of the Eight Great Sects. But if a Sect’s comprehensive strength, influence, and worldly impact have already shown signs of catching up to the Eight Great Sects, this is not a good phenonon.”
“Moreover, the official ranks of Xuan Country do not actually have that many talents.”
“Don’t think those big Sects are all that great; if they were united, they’d have probably tried to seize the throne long ago. Fortunately, they’re constantly in conflict with each other, which makes it easier for the state to manage,” said the Director.
“So, I hope you can win over Li Xiaoyao and get him to serve the state,” the Director said, enunciating each word deliberately.
Cheng Dongliang was profoundly shaken and nodded imdiately, “I will do my best.”
“Mm.” The Director patted his shoulder, speaking earnestly, “Old Cheng, all we can do in our lifeti is to do as much as we can for this country, to make it better, to let its people live in peace and prosperity. I don’t dream of being universally acknowledged while I’m alive or being rembered in a hundred years. As long as this world becos a better place because of my efforts, that’ll be enough for .”
…
The news about the botanical garden was completely sealed off, and the official explanation given to the public regarding the commotion was ongoing internal construction.
That very afternoon, the officials issued another announcent.
The botanical garden would continue to be free to the public after the several days of construction, and they would also provide Spirit Fruit.
Once this news was disseminated, the citizens of Ling City were overjoyed.
By the ti Li Xiaoyao left the botanical garden, a group had already entered, quickly clearing away the rubble.
Back at ho, Li Xiaoyao only saw Zhu Xiaoyue.
After looking around, he asked, “Just you?”
Zhu Xiaoyue leaned on the sofa, eyeing the transford Li Xiaoyao, her eyes like crescent moons.
“Suddenly becoming handso, I’m really not used to it yet,” she said.
In an instant, Li Xiaoyao was in front of her and lifted her from the sofa, saying, “Not used to it? Seems like I need to make you get used to it quickly.”
With a sweep of his mind, Li Xiaoyao realized that in this house, there was only Zhu Xiaoyue. He quickly figured out what was going on.
These won really know how to live in harmony, taking turns; Tang Tiantian yesterday, Zhu Xiaoyue today—a day for each, it seems.
…
After escaping the botanical garden, Gui Hai imdiately fled far away, heading for Da Lin Temple.
The battle with Li Xiaoyao played over in his mind like scenes from a movie. The black arrow that ca at him made him feel the proximity of death for the first ti.
Beneath Gui Hai’s feet were prayer beads enlarged several tis over, carrying him as he flew high in the sky.
He took out a Communication Jade Slip from his Storage Ring and imdiately tried to contact Yi Jie, but there was no response. Then he tried to contact Yuan Ling, the Guardian of Da Lin Temple in the Human Realm, but there was still no response.
No response from Yi Jie could an that he was in the Human Realm and their communication was blocked by it.
But no response from Yuan Ling made no sense at all.
“Elder Yuan Li, has sothing happened within the Human Realm?” Gui Hai asked urgently when he managed to contact soone else.
A voice, heavy with suppressed anger, rang in his mind through the Jade Slip, “That boy from the Li Family of Xuan Country, he killed Yi Jie. His accomplices also killed Yuan Ling and all the Disciples who participated in the Human Realm this ti!”
“What!” Gui Hai was profoundly shocked; he thought Li Xiaoyao’s words had been sowhat boastful, but now, Elder Yuan Li’s angry voice let him know that all of this had truly happened.
“How is that possible? That cannot be!” Gui Hai almost roared, “In this mundane world, who has such Cultivation Level, and who would dare do this to my Da Lin Temple?”
