41: Chapter 41 Returning to the Heavenly Origin Holy Sect, Elder Xiuwen's Questioning!

The System's notification sound suddenly rang out in Zhou Yuxuan's mind.

The next second, countless pure energy appeared inexplicably within his body.

Majestic energy overflowed from within his body, and a terrifying pressure raged in all directions.

Zhou Yuxuan cast a cold glance at the few people in the surrounding crowd who had wanted to be the first to cause trouble just now.

He could not help but let out a cold snort.

"Let's go!"

Zhou Yuxuan took Jin Qiaoer onto the green wood cloud boat, and the next moment, they flew rapidly in the direction of the Tianyuan Holy Sect.

"Respectfully sending off Your Highness the Saint!" Watching their Saint depart, the Disciples of the Tianyuan Holy Sect bowed respectfully, not daring to show any negligence.

After Zhou Yuxuan had been gone for a long time, the crowd straightened their bodies, each exuding an aura of confidence.

The inexplicably appearing pressure made those around them feel that this group of people was not to be trifled with.

They consciously moved away from them.

...

The next day, at the Tianyuan Holy Sect.

News of Zhou Yuxuan suppressing and killing the Disciples of the Guiyuan Sect reached the Sect.

Many Elders were shocked and angry.

In an instant, the previously harmonious Elders split into two factions.

Among them, a young Elder from the opposition faction said coldly.

"Hmph! The Saint has been acting too domineering lately. He actually suppressed and killed all the members of the Guiyuan Sect, which is under the management of the Haoran Divine Sect. Now, the Haoran Divine Sect has come to hold us accountable."

"If you ask me, although the Saint has good talent and strong strength, and even cleared the one-hundredth floor of the Tianyuan Holy Tower, the position of Saint does not suit him. He is too good at causing trouble for the Sect."

"..."

The Elders of the supporting faction listened to the words of the opposition Elders and shouted angrily, blowing their beards and staring.

"Hmph! The position of Sect Master has always been held by those with high strength. May I ask, if the position of Saint is not held by Yuxuan, who should hold it?"

"That's right! You young people want to abolish Yuxuan's position as Saint? Then put forward someone who can defeat Yuxuan and make us old bones convinced."

"..."

Sect Master Ji Shengyuan, sitting on the Sect Master's throne, was frowning as he watched the group of Elders arguing.

Regarding the matter of Zhou Yuxuan wiping out the Disciples of the Guiyuan Sect without a word, he was also very shocked when he first heard about it.

After all, that was a Sect managed by the Haoran Divine Sect. In terms of strength, the Haoran Divine Sect is not weaker than his Tianyuan Holy Sect; it can be said that they are evenly matched, both having a Saint to oversee them.

But in terms of influence, the Haoran Divine Sect can be said to be the most influential Sect in the Eastern Region.

Since its founding, the Haoran Divine Sect has established academies everywhere to train Disciples for free, and for some families from poor backgrounds, if a child with good talent for Cultivation appears in their family, they even provide them with many subsidies.

And Zhou Yuxuan killing the Disciples of the forces under the Haoran Divine Sect so inexplicably is equivalent to slapping them in the face. If they take action, it might affect the reputation of his Tianyuan Holy Sect, and even the forces under his management might be tempted to break away from the control of the Tianyuan Holy Sect.

Thinking of this, Sect Master Ji Shengyuan could not help but rub his aching head.

If it weren't for the fact that he knew Zhou Yuxuan was the Disciple of the Ancestral Master, even with the protection of his identity as the Young Master of the Zhou Family, he would have abolished this position of Saint without hesitation.

Just as Sect Master Ji Shengyuan was worrying about this matter, a True Disciple hurried over to deliver a message.

"Sect Master, Your Highness the Saint has returned!"

As the words fell, the Elders who were still arguing stopped.

They all looked at the Disciple who was delivering the message.

"Since the Saint has returned to the Sect, go and invite him over!"

"That's right! This Elder wants to ask him how he acts as a Saint. As a Saint, going out represents the face of the Sect."

"..."

The young opposition Elders all made sounds of dissatisfaction.

Just at this moment, a cold and indifferent voice slowly drifted over.

"Oh? Which Elder is dissatisfied with this Saint's actions?"

Zhou Yuxuan walked into the Sect's main hall alone at this moment, his heterochromatic eyes sizing up the Elders who opposed his actions.

"Yuxuan greets the Sect Master." After scanning the room, Zhou Yuxuan cupped his fists slightly and performed a simple salute.

Seeing such a perfunctory action, those young Elders were just about to speak out and reprimand him.

But Sect Master Ji Shengyuan discovered something amiss. He looked at Zhou Yuxuan's eyes in disbelief and said.

"Yuxuan, your eyes, have you Awakening some kind of Physique?"

Upon hearing this, Zhou Yuxuan just nodded faintly.

"So, Yuxuan, the strange phenomenon that appeared over the Sect that day was caused by you?"

An old man asked with eyes full of joy.

Zhou Yuxuan still nodded silently, unwilling to say more nonsense.

Seeing Zhou Yuxuan agree, the old Elders who supported him all revealed smiles.

Not bad! This is what their Sect Saint should look like. Breakthroughs should cause a big commotion, and whatever one does should cause a big commotion.

Otherwise, doing everything with timidity, where is the bearing of a great Sect's Saint?

Suddenly, a discordant voice rang out.

"Your Highness the Saint, even if your Physique is peerless and your talent is rare throughout history, it is inappropriate to wipe out Disciples from other Sects who have come out for training at every turn. This will bring trouble upon the Sect!"

The person speaking was a young Elder named Xiuwen.

Because he was young and only took eight hundred years to Breakthrough to the Immortal Realm, he was particularly favored by the Sect Master, who gave him an Elder position to sit in.

The reason why this Elder spoke out against Zhou Yuxuan was simple: he had taken in a Disciple with good talent and wanted to seek a path for his own Disciple. Since the Saint had caused a big incident, he wanted to use this matter to abolish his position as Saint, so that his own Disciple could sit in this position after completing their studies.

After his words fell, everyone's eyes fell upon him.

"Bring trouble upon the Sect? Eighteenth Elder, these words of yours are inappropriate, aren't they? Our Holy Sect's strength is similar to that of the Haoran Divine Sect, so how can this be called bringing trouble upon the Sect?"

"Moreover, the Saint only attacked because those Disciples of the Guiyuan Sect were disrespectful first and insulted the reputation of our Holy Sect. As the Saint, it was only right for Yuxuan to take action."

Several old men spoke one after another at this time.

Making the complexion of Xiuwen, who had spoken out, turn ugly.

"Eighteenth Elder, you feel that what this Saint did was inappropriate. Could it be that you are a spy sent by the Haoran Divine Sect?"

Zhou Yuxuan looked at Xiuwen, his gaze becoming cold and stern.

Although he didn't know why this name sounded familiar, daring to speak out against him meant it was time to teach these Elders a lesson.

When these words fell, everyone looked at Elder Xiuwen, who had always been unwilling to conflict with the Haoran Divine Sect, and their gazes instantly became cold and sharp.

Just at this moment, a cold notification sound rang out in Zhou Yuxuan's mind.

[Ding! The host has successfully changed the plot, causing the Sect Elders to become suspicious of the Revered Master of the Luck protagonist Qin Hao, and you have received the reward: Truth-Telling Needle!]
