Chapter 10: Why Make Things Difficult For Him?

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

At the same time, on the platform where the Azure Yang Sect was entering the sect, Qing Yangzi and the seven elders had already turned into eight statues.

It was too much!

Seeing that it was already evening, the eight people’s faces all became somewhat ashen, as if their days were numbered.

This was especially the case for Qing Yangzi. He even had a few more strands of white hair now.

At this moment, let alone a person coming to the Azure Yang Sect, even if a dog came here!

He would welcome it in and treat it well!

“Senior… Senior Brother, did something happen?”

“Should I go out and look for him?”

The fire spiritual root branch’s Elder Qiu Yan’s voice was hoarse and low.

Qing Yangzi waved his hands hurriedly.

“Absolutely not. Today, we are all staying in the sect, just like in the past.”

“If we went out to search, it would be interfering with the heavenly secrets.”

“What was the point of bringing someone back by then?”

“We’ll just be fooling ourselves.”

Upon hearing this, Qiu Yan swallowed the rest of his words and turned to look at the mountain gate below.

He was an impatient person. This long wait was too torturous for him.

As time passed, the hearts of the eight people sank bit by bit.

Although the eight of them did not move, their hearts were actually suffering in the sea of bitterness.

Suddenly, Qing Yangzi spoke out coldly.

“Junior Brother Zhang, I recently sensed something. I believe a breakthrough is imminent.”

“Therefore, I’m prepared to enter seclusion for a period of time.”

“You will be the acting Sect Leader of the Azure Yang Sect during this period of time that I am in seclusion. What do you say?”

The moment he said this, First Elder Zhang Yan’s body went rigid.

A conspiracy! A conspiracy!

The other elders also subconsciously looked over.

A moment later, Zhang Yan replied softly, “Senior Brother, the Sect Leader is the symbol of the sect, how can you let it go so easily?

“Furthermore, all the matters in the sect are handled by me. What’s the difference whether you enter seclusion or not?”

“Junior Brother Zhang! Haven’t you always coveted my position as Sect Leader?” Qing Yangzi’s voice turned much harsher.

Zhang Yan’s tone remained calm, “Senior Brother, the position of Sect Leader was decided by Master. How would I dare to covet it?”

“I occasionally do something out of line just to give Senior Brother some motivation to cultivate.”

“In my heart, Senior Brother will forever be the Sect Leader of my Azure Yang Sect!”

Those words were like a heavy hammer that slammed down on Qing Yangzi’s chest. It was so close that he nearly spat out a mouthful of blood.

The expressions of the elders in the surroundings became slightly strange.

The 8th of the month had not passed yet?

But the panic was starting already?

Looking at Qing Yangzi glancing over at them, the few of them spoke up one after another.

“Senior Brother, I forgot to tell you something. Something happened to my family recently. I might have to leave the sect for a while.”

“Senior Brother, it’s been ten years since I visited my Dao companion. I heard that she gave birth to a child recently. I should go and take a look…”

…

A few elders fought to be the first to leave.

It all depended on speed now.

Be the Sect Leader?

Impossible.

If the sect were to be destroyed, the Sect Leader would definitely die.

Only by being an elder could one survive.

“Hmph! A bunch of good-for-nothings!” Qing Yangzi scolded out softly.

Although he knew that his junior brothers and sisters were not serious about it now…

He could not completely ignore it.

If the person who was meant to face the calamity did not appear today, the Azure Yang Sect would probably lose a few elders.

Just as he was deeply worried, Shui Rou suddenly said in a trembling voice, “Someone… someone has come!”

Her voice was not loud, but it was like a thunderclap in the ears of the others!

In the blink of an eye, everyone stuck their heads out of the platform and looked at the mountain gate in the distance!

If the previous scene was like watching a peerless fairy bathe…

At this moment, it was as if that fairy who had walked out of the pool naked!

Not only did she leave the pool, she even started to spin around!

Who could stand this?

Qing Yangzi and the seven elders’ eyes were almost popping out!

…

In front of the Azure Yang Sect, Chen Mu staggered.

After running for twenty miles, no matter how good his physique was, he was completely exhausted.

Not to mention that he had not slept for two days and two nights.

However, although he was extremely tired, his gaze was extremely firm.

Clink…

Clink…

Chen Mu walked into the mountain gate and ascended the stairs.

…

On the platform, Qing Yangzi sized up Chen Mu who had just entered the sect.

He was dressed in rough clothes and his body was stained with blood.

He looked exhausted and stumbled.

However, even at this point of decline, it still could not conceal that pair of eyes that were deep and bright like a river of stars!

That aura…

It was quite similar to him back then!

Rumble!

Qing Yangzi could only feel his mind rumbling non-stop!

One scene after another appeared in his mind!

Great waves washed away the sand, producing true gold…

The fog dispersed, and moonlight appeared…

After the violent waves subsided, a small boat slowly sailed out…

“It’s… it’s… it’s him!”

At this moment, he was incredibly excited, his body even trembling, his gray-white hair even more so curling up.

He had once wondered how many people would arrive on the 8th of the month, and how he would be able to distinguish the destined savior.

But now that he saw this person, he realized…

What was he worrying about?

Putting everything else aside, just that pair of beautiful and spirited eyes was enough!

Not to mention that he was the only one who came today, even if there were a hundred! Even if a thousand came!

He could still identify this person from the crowd!

He was dressed in a rough hemp garment, yet he stood out like a bright lamp in the dark night!

What if…

No, there was no if, it was him!

It could not be anyone else!

The ancestor was indeed extraordinary!

He had predicted today’s events over a thousand years ago!

The incompetence of the juniors had disgraced the founder!

Zhang Yan suddenly turned around while he was sensing such deep emotions.

When Qing Yangzi caught sight of this, he hollered out harshly!

“Junior Brother Zhang! What are you doing!”

Although his voice was not loud, it was like thunder in Zhang Yan’s ears.

As the First Elder, Zhang Yan normally did not hang around the Sect Leader. Now that he was suddenly yelled at, he was really shocked.

“Of course I’m going to welcome him into the sect. What else can I do?”

“Nonsense!” Qing Yangzi scolded coldly.

“Who are you? Who is he?”

“Do you want him to know that he is the person to face the calamity?”

Saying so, he glanced at the other elders.

“How have we been all these years ever since we learned of the ancestor’s parting message?”

“You all know it in your hearts!”

“If this child knew who he was, he would probably live in fear every day!”

“How can he cultivate in that state?”

The elders nodded in agreement.

Zhang Yan said, “Then what should I do?”

Qing Yangzi waved it off.

“Stop him! His identity is that of a late Immortal Seeker!”

“If you should reprimand, reprimand! If you should punish, punish!”

“Let him know that our Azure Yang Sect is not a random sect!”

“In short, apart from accepting him into the sect no matter what, you just need to perform as usual!”

Zhang Yan felt that it made sense and nodded immediately.

With a flash, he disappeared from the spot.

…

On the other hand, Chen Mu had just reached the tenth step.

At this moment, he really could not crawl anymore.

However, he did not dare to be negligent. Although he could not see anyone, he knew that there might be many big shots secretly observing him.

Steady!

Determined!

Handsome!

Chen Mu kept encouraging himself. At that moment, a figure in a black Daoist robe blocked his path.

He looked up slowly.

The person in front of him looked to be in his forties or fifties. He had a square face, a tall and straight body, and a stern and cold expression. He looked very much like the dean that everyone feared in high school in his previous life.

“It’s already the 8th of the month today. Why did you come here now?” The middle-aged man asked coldly.

Chen Mu’s heart stirred as he said weakly, “Senior, please forgive me… I encountered…”

“Shut up! Do you really think that my Azure Yang Sect is a place where you can come at any time?” Zhang Yan’s voice was extremely stern, shocking Chen Mu.

Just as he was at a loss, a soft sigh suddenly sounded from the distant horizon.

“Junior Brother, don’t make things difficult for him…”

The voice came closer and closer like a spring breeze, extremely gentle.

Chen Mu subconsciously turned to look.

A rainbow-colored cloud was drifting over from the horizon.

On top of the auspicious cloud, an old man with flowing hair and a sage-like appearance was looking at him with a benevolent gaze.

“This… This is an immortal?” Chen Mu was shocked.

After coming to this world, this was the first time he had seen a cultivator who could truly ride on the clouds.

Before he could react, the old man had already landed before him.

Subsequently, an indescribable power surged into his body. The fatigue from before was completely swept away!

Amazing! Too amazing!

Chen Mu was impressed!

“Junior Brother, one look and you can tell that this child has gone through untold hardships to come to my Azure Yang Sect. Why do you have to adhere to such worldly rules?” Qing Yangzi looked at Chen Mu with a pained expression.

He looked three times more benevolent than Grandma Li, who was the oldest in Stone Village!

Behind him, Zhang Yan’s face instantly turned as black as the bottom of a pot!

Damn it! He had fallen into a trap!

This dog of a Senior Brother!

He made him look like the bad guy!

It turned out that it was to make it easier for him to gain a good impression like this. He was pretending!

He was the Sect Leader after all. Did he not find himself disgusting speaking like this?

He even changed his clothes in such a short time and created the rainbow cloud!

He could only fool mortals!

Shameless! Utterly shameless!

Zhang Yan gnashed his teeth in hatred. He wished he could kill this Senior Brother with a slap of his Thunder Palm!

But at that moment, he noticed Chen Mu looking at him.

In that instant, the storm came to a stop and everything returned to tranquility.

“Senior Brother is right. I was wrong.”
