Young Noble Be Monster Slaying-Chapter 843: Im Afraid CEO Chu Will Misunderstand

Of course, a few of them looked rather guilty.

Earlier, when everyone was frantically looting spirit plants and fleeing, some disciples from the Penglai Secondary Sect had managed to escape with fully matured spirit plants.

Others had taken the plants but hadn’t managed to flee. They now clutched them anxiously, afraid Daoist Cangsheng would hold them responsible.

However, Daoist Cangsheng clearly wasn’t in the mood to care. Compared to what Grand Ancestor Fuyou had taken, what they took was negligible.

Grand Ancestor Fuyou had dug up the very foundation of the Penglai Supreme Sect!

"The man who controlled us left word that all disciples of the Penglai Supreme Sect will be released in seven days, but only if you promise to stop pursuing," a disciple of the Penglai Secondary Sect said nervously.

Daoist Cangsheng stared into the distance in silence for a long time before finally saying, "Then I will wait seven days. Once all our disciples have returned... even if he hides at the ends of the world, I will pursue him and kill him. Not one of those who looted our sect will escape justice."

His voice trembled as he spoke. It was unclear whether his fury had driven him to the verge of coughing up blood. Regardless, all he could do in the end was rage.

The Noble Dharma was already a cultivator on the brink of ascension. Now that he possessed the Celestial Cosmic Ring, it was uncertain whether Daoist Cangsheng could even compete with him. The leader of the Dark King Sect was very good at hiding. If not, how else had he managed to evade capture for so many years? Even if his other strongholds were destroyed, he likely would not care. And as for Grand Ancestor Fuyou, he had hostages.

This Grand Ancestor Fuyou was extremely evil. If he set the disciples of the Penglai Supreme Sect away and held the ones of the Penglai Secondary Sect hostage, Daoist Cangsheng might have acted without restraint. But by doing the opposite, returning the disciples of the Penglai Secondary Sect and keeping the ones from the Penglai Supreme Sect, he had truly seized Penglai by the throat.

"The celestial beast Azure Dragon is severely wounded and has fled. We must find it first," Daoist Cangsheng continued. "Shenlong, organize the group here and lead them back to the original site of Penglai."

With that, he and the two other Eminent Ones, Daoist Cangqiu and Daoist Cangyun, flew off into the sky. The once-mighty Penglai Supreme Sect now had only four members remaining—just enough to fill a mahjong table, but far from enough for anything else. The lowest-ranking among them was Head Disciple Yang Shenlong.

Once the three Eminent Ones departed, Hong Jufeng finally let out a sigh of relief. Yang Shenlong’s aura was powerful, but it was nothing compared to Daoist Cangsheng’s.

Yang Shenlong looked at him and said, "Island Master Hong, please help to prepare some food, water, and medicine for us."

Many of them were injured, and the Penglai Supreme Sect could no longer even scrape together basic medicine.

"No problem," Hong Jufeng replied with a nod. Then he added, "But Young Master Yang, after you leave this time, please don’t come looking for my Starhold Island again."

"Hm?" Yang Shenlong frowned and looked at him.

Hong Jufeng straightened his back. He had expected this day to come. Being an undercover agent was exhausting, and he had always known he would have to confront the Penglai Supreme Sect eventually. He just hadn’t expected that moment to arrive so suddenly.

Now that the Penglai Supreme Sect had fallen in a single day while the Mount Shu Sect had acquired a legendary artifact, their influence was bound to rise. As one rose and the other declined, the title of the Top Immortal Sect in the human realm was likely to change hands.

If they continued to follow the Penglai Supreme Sect, they wouldn’t gain any benefits—more likely, they would just be drained dry. It was better to take this opportunity to draw a clean line between themselves and the Penglai Supreme Sect. He hadn’t dared to speak while Daoist Cangsheng was still present, but now that the Eminent Ones had left, he finally found the courage.

Even so, Yang Shenlong’s presence was no less intimidating. His gaze made Hong Jufeng’s heart skip a beat, but Hong Jufeng still summoned his courage and slowly said, "I’m afraid CEO Chu might misunderstand."

...

At that moment, Chu Liang was pacing anxiously outside a private chamber, muttering under his breath, "Why isn’t it done yet? Don’t tell me something went wrong."

Only two or three peaks on Mount Shu remained intact. The disciples of the Construction Hall were working tirelessly to rebuild, but even with overtime, restoring dozens of mountain peaks was an overwhelming task. With the entire sect crammed onto just a few peaks, even the Four Guardian Elders of the Mount Shu Sect didn’t have private rooms.

However, Jiang Yuebai had entered this private chamber alone.

"Is it done yet?" Chu Liang called into the room every so often.

"Don’t rush," the Whale-Riding Immortal replied lazily. "Things like this don’t happen quickly. You youngsters just lack experience."

"It’s not that I lack experience. It’s just... this time, it’s her. Of course I’m nervous," Chu Liang said as he clenched his fists. "I just hope it goes smoothly."

Just then, Daoist Yan appeared. The Whale-Riding Immortal immediately froze, and his expression turned slightly awkward.

However, Daoist Yan showed no intention of speaking to him. She simply raised her hand and gathered Dao essence from all directions.

As the master of the Cloud of Determination Great Dao, Daoist Yan couldn’t grant someone the comprehension of the Cloud of Determination Great Dao, but she could offer some assistance at a moment of enlightenment.

Take this moment as an example. Daoist Yan was currently intensifying the surrounding essence of the Cloud of Determination Great Dao.

Whoosh!

Boom!

A moment later, a streak of white light blasted out of the private chamber, tore through the roof, and vanished into the sky. And just like that, another one of the few remaining decent buildings on Mount Shu was gone.

But everyone who saw it smiled. "She succeeded!"

Jiang Yuebai’s figure floated out gently and landed before the crowd. She bowed slightly to Daoist Yan and said, "Esteemed Teacher, I am deeply grateful."

Earlier, when the Mount Shu Sect's Vessel of God had attacked, the air was saturated with the origin essence of the Cloud of Determination Great Dao. Jiang Yuebai was already at the pinnacle of the sixth realm and possessed a deep understanding of that Great Dao, so she immediately experienced a moment of enlightenment upon seeing the Vessel. After the battle, she took some time to attempt a breakthrough. And as expected, she broke through to the seventh realm.

A breakthrough this swift within the cultivation realms of the Heavenly Gate was expected from someone with a Transcendent Spirit constitution. It was only because several others from the younger generation had already advanced that she appeared slightly behind.

The Mount Shu Sect’s primary cultivation in the Dao of Sword had always harmonized well with the Cloud of Determination. Now that both Xu Ziyang and Jiang Yuebai had reached the Heavenly Gate through the Cloud of Determination Great Dao, it shouldn't be hard to ensure that the future Dao Master of this Great Dao would remain a disciple of the Mount Shu Sect.

Daoist Yan gave her a gentle smile and said, "Well done."

The Whale-Riding Immortal added, "The Mount Shu Sect’s Vessel of God will only unleash its full power when controlled by you all. Once I’ve wrapped up the matters here, I’ll leave the Vessel of God with the sect."

Though it was the Whale-Riding Immortal who schemed and labored to obtain the Vessel of God, Chu Liang had contributed greatly. Without him, the Whale-Riding Immortal would’ve ended up with just the sword hilt. It would be like holding a steering wheel with no car.

On the way back, the two had already agreed that once the Whale-Riding Immortal completed his business at the Divine Ruins Monastery, he would leave the Vessel of God at Mount Shu permanently as the guardian legendary artifact. Given the contributions of the Whale-Riding Immortal, he naturally had the right to use it this time.

Just as he finished speaking, the Whale-Riding Immortal’s eyebrows suddenly twitched. "Hm? Someone’s looking for me?"
