C388 Great Anger
Zeng Jue said he was leaving, but in reality, it was no different from fleeing. He did not even bring his two lackeys with him and just left them behind.
After this incident, Zeng Jue's morals had been thoroughly corrupted to the core. Not to mention the people from other sects, even his fellow disciples looked down on him. They were embarrassed to be his partners, so they would only be despised by everyone in the future …
Since their boss had already left, it wasn't appropriate for Dong Xiao and Hu Jing to stay here anymore. They could only cover their red and swollen faces with their hands and run away. However, they were not going in the same direction as Zeng Jue.
After the farce ended, the surrounding crowd left one after the other. However, the content of their conversation did not leave Zeng Jue. It was just that the content of their discussions were not good words of praise.
Nie Zhen also took advantage of the crowd to leave the Spiritual Medicine Market.
Just as Nie Zhen left, the owner clapped his hands and shouted: "I remember! This person is the Infernal King, Nie Zhen! "
"Ah?" Brother, did you just know? " Hearing the shop owner's voice, a young disciple at the side laughed: "This person is currently famous in Nine Palace City, even many of my Jiugong Sect's younger generation are his admirers."
In this world, people worship individual heroism, and young people especially worship heroes. But Nie Zhen clearly met the requirements, so even if they were from different sects, there were still a lot of young people who praised Nie Zhen within Jiugong Sect.
The owner patted his chest and said, "Oh my gosh..." I actually managed to do this Infernal King's business … I even killed quite a few of them... "
The owner still had some lingering fear. According to the legend, Nie Zhen would kill people without blinking an eye. Not only were there not just one or two experts who fell at his hands, they were the kind of people who would never talk nonsense with him.
If Nie Zhen felt like he was cheating on him just now, he might destroy his own store at any moment.
However, from the looks of it, there seemed to be a difference between the real Nie Zhen and the legendary Nie Zhen … At least, it was not the same as the one in the legend …
When Nie Zhen returned to the Duobao Courtyard, he saw Yan Ruoxue waiting for him at the entrance of the courtyard.
"Xue'er, what's wrong?" Nie Zhen noticed that Yan Ruoxue's expression was a little unnatural. He thought that with Yan Ruoxue's personality, she shouldn't have come to the door just to wait for him, so he asked her about it.
Yan Ruoxue pursed her lips and smiled helplessly, "Young Master Nie, why don't you go and see your family's Great Sect Master? He doesn't seem to be in a good mood."
"Hmm?" Nie Zhen knew that Great Sect Master went to find Sovereign Tai Yi. If Great Sect Master was in a bad mood, then it meant that there was no agreement with Sovereign Tai Yi?
Nie Zhen nodded towards Yan Ruoxue, then walked towards Great Sect Master's room.
Before Nie Zhen could knock on the door, he heard Great Sect Master's angry voice from inside: "This Sovereign Tai Yi! I thought that since he is a Origin Stage Ranker, he should have a long-term vision.
With Zhuo Bufan's personality, he shouldn't have had such a big emotional reaction. From this, it could be seen that he had been greatly angered by Sovereign Tai Yi.
"Disciple Nie Zhen pays his respect to Master and all sect leaders." He knew that all the sect heads should be discussing important matters with Zhuo Bufan at this time.
When he heard Nie Zhen come over to pay his respects, the faint sound in the room suddenly stopped. Then came Zhuo Bufan's voice, "Oh, it's Nephew Nie. Come in."
With Zhuo Bufan's permission, Nie Zhen walked into the room and saw Wu Great Sect Master's face simultaneously turn serious. He knew that Zhuo Bufan and Sovereign Tai Yi probably didn't communicate very well today.
"Great Sect Master, this time you personally went to discuss Origin Sect and their collusion, I wonder what the result will be?" Nie Zhen didn't play around with those twists and turns, and directly opened his mouth to ask.
"Hey! Don't mention it! " When Sovereign Tai Yi was mentioned, Zhuo Bufan was angered to the point that his face revealed an expression of "exhaustion". He then turned to Nie Zhen and said, "Nie Zhen, you are still young now, so you should temporarily not interfere with these things. Calm down and cultivate is the way of the world, as for the matters between the martial institutions, it's better to let us old guys worry about it …"
And at this time, Third Sect Master and Zhong Ming said: "Boss, I feel that there's no harm in talking to Nie Zhen about this matter. Firstly, Nie Zhen is calm and steady, and is not as impetuous as ordinary youths. Secondly, even though he is currently my Duobao Sect's disciple, his martial strength is already comparable to a sect's elder's, and his Preparative Pill Sage is also, in terms of identity, status, he should know about this matter."
Nie Zhen hurriedly added: "That's right, Great Sect Master. Disciple is also a part of Duobao Sect, and furthermore, the original information regarding Pingsha Sect was brought back by disciple.
"Yeah, boss. I have confidence in Nie Zhen. Maybe he can advise us." Duan Rong also advised.
Zhuo Bufan thought for a moment, felt that what they said was reasonable, and said to Liu Tie in a deep voice, "Alright … "Nephew Nie, since you knew about it from the start, I won't go into details. I was just going to talk about the results …"
From Zhuo Bufan's expression, Nie Zhen felt that Zhuo Bufan seemed to have received some kind of blow on this matter and his spirit was a little sluggish.
Zhuo Bufan continued: Today, I went to the Jiugong Sect Palace to meet Sovereign Tai Yi and discussed with him about Pingsha Sect stepping into my three great empires. Unexpectedly, Sovereign Tai Yi actually said that he would turn a blind eye to this matter, and said that since they took the initiative to invite him, they can't stop him, and it's completely within the limits of the rules.
In fact, the conversation today was much more complicated than what he had described. Inside the Main Hall of the Middle Palace, he bitterly advised Sovereign Tai Yi, wanting to jointly punish the wolf that brought Origin Sect in, and to put an end to the matter of Pingsha Sect involvement in the three great empires.0
In the end, Sovereign Tai Yi was either talking to Wang Gu, or just talking to him. Whatever he said was his family's business, and he didn't violate any rules or things like that. Let alone people, he couldn't even fool ghosts.
Duan Rong said angrily: "Could it be that Sovereign Tai Yi still thinks that we are deliberately targeting Origin Sect, so as to avenge our personal grudges?!"
However, Nie Zhen said indifferently: "Not only that, I'm afraid Sovereign Tai Yi still has the idea of balancing the three great empires. He doesn't want my Duobao Sect to be the sole ruler."
Zhuo Bufan looked at Nie Zhen and praised, "Nephew Nie is indeed observant. I think that's what Sovereign Tai Yi meant!"
Liu Tie added: "After the two Jiugong Sect competitions, the spoils of the competition have all been obtained by my Duobao Sect, and after the competition, disciple has already handed the halberd over to Master, and used the Holy laughter Pill to help Great Sect Master breakthrough to the Origin Stage, my Duobao Sect strength has risen greatly, almost two Origin Stage experts, so Sovereign Tai Yi will definitely think that my position of first in the Jiugong Sect will not be preserved."
Third Sect Master and Zhong Ming said indifferently: "It's precisely because of this small mischief that caused Sovereign Tai Yi to turn a blind eye to the secret methods of the Origin Sect, and wanted to use Origin Sect to restrain my Duobao Sect right … Origin Sect is not sufficient, but with the addition of Pingsha Sect, it's more than enough. "
Zhuo Bufan clenched his fists tightly, and said hatefully: "Although this person looks like a Origin Stage Ranker, he is actually short-sighted! Using Origin Sect to restrain my Duobao Sect … Forget about Origin Sect and who exactly was the master of it, could this Pingsha Sect really be used as a tool to make use of?! Pingsha Sect is a sect called the Tiger Wolf School, once they gain a foothold in the Three Great Empires, then we really won't be able to do anything to them. He must be getting old! "
Fifth Sect Master and Zheng Ying let out a long sigh, "Eh... In front of the benefits, no one was immune to it … It's a pity that when we thought about the future of the three empires, we ended up with ungrateful consequences. "
At this moment, Nie Zhen also frowned, he also didn't expect Sovereign Tai Yi to be so much worse than he imagined, probably because he failed to win even two Jiugong Sect competitions, which gave Sovereign Tai Yi a huge blow.
Sovereign Tai Yi did not dare to take the two treasures for himself even if he had more guts. He originally thought that the disciples of Jiugong Sect and the alchemy experts would have no problem winning at least one of the championships, but who would have known that the two championships would be won by Nie Zhen.
No matter how magnanimous Sovereign Tai Yi looked on the surface, he was still a little frightened in his heart. Coupled with Zhuo Bufan's breakthrough and Zhuo Bufan's breakthrough, Sovereign Tai Yi's heart was thumping heavily towards the Origin Sect.
Therefore, when Zhuo Bufan saw Sovereign Tai Yi and brought up the matter of punishing Origin Sect, Sovereign Tai Yi found all sorts of excuses and even assured Zhuo Bufan that Origin Sect wouldn't go too far, asking Zhuo Bufan to pay more attention to the unity between the three empires.
After talking for an entire day, Zhuo Bufan's words were completely dry, and he couldn't shake Sovereign Tai Yi. He seemed to have made up his mind that he would stand on Origin Sect's side this time.
In the end, Zhuo Bufan could only leave in anger. When he returned to the yard, he started to scold Sovereign Tai Yi for being short-sighted and his words lingered in the air …
"Boss, it seems like this Jiugong Sect is unreliable as well. In my opinion, the only thing that we can rely on is ourselves. Regarding this matter of Origin Sect, we should have made the arrangements earlier!" Duan Rong said.
Zhuo Bufan's eyes narrowed, and said helplessly: "Now I have no other choice … … My Duobao Sect and Origin Sect have always had enmity, so others might not believe our words. Originally, I wanted to let my Jiugong Sect take the lead, but now … "
If Duobao Sect took the initiative to cause trouble for Origin Sect, it would be seen as a private grudge between the two sects. This was also where Zhuo Bufan was somewhat restrained.
