275: Little guy, you are quite possessive.

Upon hearing Lin Ye's words, everyone snapped back to reality.

That's right, the matter of joining a peak hasn't ended yet.

However...

Looking at the bloodstains left behind by Li Zifeng and those three, the newly admitted Disciples all shuddered.

The Saint is indeed worthy of his reputation!

While saying he is of the Righteous Path and must slay demons, he kills with a wave of his hand; that Li Zifeng was even turned into a human stick!

Performing such terrifying and ruthless methods, yet he remained completely indifferent.

The Saint must not be provoked!

This was the only thought in everyone's mind.

"Senior Peak Revered Master, Saint!"

Just at this moment, Ye Xiaoyao spoke up: "I still wish to join Qingyou Peak."

Oh?

Madam Miao turned her gaze toward Ye Xiaoyao. Someone wants to join Qingyou Peak?

This kid seems to have quite a few secrets; taking him under my wing wouldn't be a problem, but...

Madam Miao looked at Lin Ye, and the latter happened to look over at the same time.

Madam Miao's vermilion lips parted slightly as she transmitted a message to Lin Ye: "Whether to accept a Disciple or not is up to you to decide."

Upon hearing this, Lin Ye nodded.

He said to Ye Xiaoyao: "My Revered Master said that Qingyou Peak is not accepting Disciples at the moment, so you should choose another peak. If you want to challenge me, you can come anytime..."

Madam Miao: "..."

Upon hearing Lin Ye's words, Ye Xiaoyao's eyes held a hint of regret.

But since they didn't want to accept a Disciple, he certainly couldn't force it. Moreover, Lin Ye also said he could challenge him at any time.

Since that was the case, what was there to regret?

"This Disciple is willing to join Chuanyun Peak."

"Good!"

The Peak Revered Master of Chuanyun Peak naturally saw the potential in Ye Xiaoyao. Moreover, this Ye Xiaoyao was the one specifically noted; in other words, he was absolutely a top-tier existence in the talent test.

Being able to have such a Disciple was indeed a fortunate event.

Madam Miao looked at Lin Ye with her autumn-water-like bright eyes.

"Little guy, I couldn't tell, your possessiveness is quite strong."

"..."

Hearing his Revered Master's teasing tone, Lin Ye did not respond, his face full of righteousness! It was as if he hadn't heard anything.

This Disciple recruitment selection ended very quickly.

The newly admitted Disciples were full of excitement, though their eyes still held a trace of fear. The impression Lin Ye left on them was simply too deep; they couldn't forget it in a short time.

Seeing that everyone had joined their respective peaks.

Lin Ye stood up, intending to leave, but just at this moment, the Lord of Blissful Demons sent someone to notify Lin Ye to go to the main hall to discuss important matters.

Upon hearing this, Lin Ye said goodbye to Madam Miao and headed toward the main hall.

...

In the main hall of the Righteous Qi Sect.

At this moment, the Lord of Blissful Demons narrowed his eyes. The Ancestors had already gone to the Upper Domain, saying they were going to avenge Madam Miao.

It was estimated that news would be sent back soon.

The most urgent matter was the situation with the Wu Dynasty, as well as another piece of news: the Chang Sheng Lin Family had sent people down!

After this news reached the ears of the Lord of Blissful Demons, he immediately ordered many core Elders to go and investigate.

If the Chang Sheng Lin Family sent people to the Lower Domain, without a doubt, they must be coming for Lin Ye.

Therefore, these threats had to be nipped in the bud. Now, the Ancestors had all determined that Lin Ye was the future heir of the Righteous Qi Sect.

Such a person could not afford even the slightest mishap.

Rumble...

While he was deep in thought, the heavy doors of the main hall slowly opened, and that red-clad figure walked in slowly.

"Saint Lord."

Lin Ye bowed to the Lord of Blissful Demons in greeting.

"No need for formalities!"

The Lord of Blissful Demons went straight to Lin Ye and said: "Lin Ye, during this recent period, the Ancestors are not in the ancestral land, so your cultivation will be temporarily paused. However, I was thinking, you cannot just be idle, after all."

"So, I intend for you to go to the Sect's Forbidden Ground. The dragon trapping pillar that the Ancestors promised you is inside."

"Of course, after entering the Forbidden Ground, you might be unable to come out for half a year, so I want to ask for your opinion in advance."

"..."

Upon hearing this, Lin Ye looked up at the Lord of Blissful Demons.

Although the other party tried hard to conceal it and found a good excuse, Lin Ye easily deduced the problem.

The Ancestors were not in the ancestral land, and being sent to the Forbidden Ground for half a year—all these signs indicated that the Saint Lord intended to let him "disappear" for a while.

Nowadays, if one were to speak of Lin Ye's enemies, they could be said to be everywhere.

After all, the secrets Lin Ye displayed in the Lingxu Battlefield had already made countless people jealous.

And those who would strike at this time...

The Chang Sheng Lin Family!

"Saint Lord, if I'm not mistaken, the Chang Sheng Lin Family has sent people to the Lower Domain, right?"

"..."

Hearing Lin Ye directly guess the problem, the Lord of Blissful Demons sighed softly.

It is easy to dodge an open spear, but hard to guard against a hidden arrow.

If the Chang Sheng Lin Family were to confront the Righteous Qi Sect head-on, the Righteous Qi Sect naturally wouldn't fear them, but the fear was that the Chang Sheng Lin Family would play dirty.

Lin Ye was a peerless Prodigy; it was impossible for him to stay in the Sect forever. What if he were found by people from the Chang Sheng Lin Family while out training?

By that time, once the other party dispatched many experts, Lin Ye might be captured by that group of people before he could even send a message!

If the Ancestors were here, they could serve as Lin Ye's protectors.

Now, those Ancestors had gone to the Upper Domain to stir up trouble.

As for the foundation sleeping in the ancestral land, it was not yet time to unseal it.

Therefore, the Lord of Blissful Demons wanted to use the Forbidden Ground matter to keep Lin Ye in the Holy Land, but he didn't expect the other party to guess it.

Seeing the expression of the Lord of Blissful Demons, how could Lin Ye not know he had guessed correctly.

His face held a hint of a smile.

The Chang Sheng Lin Family!

If it were in a place like the Lingxu Battlefield, it would seem to be quite troublesome, but in reality.

He thought about the bronze coffin he had placed in his storage space, as well as the blood-colored rosary on his wrist.

Come, come, come!

Chang Sheng Lin Family, send as many people as you have!

But if he left at this time, then the matter of Revered Master-defying...

Forget it!

Business is more important!

Lin Ye gritted his teeth and said to the Lord of Blissful Demons: "Saint Lord, this Disciple wishes to go out for training."

The Lord of Blissful Demons: "..."

I knew it!!!

I told you about the Chang Sheng Lin Family sending people to the Lower Domain, and you would definitely go out; speak of the devil.

Just as the Lord of Blissful Demons was thinking about how to refuse Lin Ye, his eyes suddenly lit up.

"Very well, you going out for training is not a bad idea, but there is one thing you need to handle."

"Hmm?"

Hearing the Lord of Blissful Demons' words, Lin Ye asked in confusion: "I wonder what matter it is?"

"The Wu Dynasty—that fiancée of yours, she has recently fallen into a predicament due to the struggle for the throne, and previously discussed the intention of forming an alliance with us."
