C2196 A Storm Is Coming
"Sect Leader, I can't help but panic. If we come at this time, I'm afraid our Yuxi Sect will be doomed this time!"
Wang Xiao's comforting words didn't affect the Third Elder at all.
The Third Elder's face was covered in sweat, and his face was full of despair. He thought of the forces of the entire Zhang Ling County that would arrive at the gate of the Jade Stream Sect in the future and shivered.
The Jade Creek Sect was at its peak, but it was proud of Yuxiao County. Even if all the forces of Zhang Ling County joined together, they would still be wiped out, and they would not be able to enter the eyes of the Third Elder.
But now, the Jade Creek Sect was a small force in Piao Ling County. Any small force in Zhang Ling County could bully the Jade Creek Sect.
Such a small faction had the treasure of an Ancient Sage. It would not gain anything and might even bring about a disaster.
"Isn't it just a small faction in Zhang Ling County? That's all." Wang Xiao waved his hand. He was not nervous at all, as if he did not put the forces of Zhang Ling County in his eyes at all.
"Chief, although Zhang Ling County is not as powerful as those immortal sects in the Ling Xiao Region, it is still a terrifying thing when countless powers join together. It is not something that those demonic shadows we met in the Palace of Yue could compare with."
The Third Elder said with a worried tone.
He had followed Wang Xiao to the banquet. Of course, he knew Wang Xiao's performance in the Duke of Yue's Palace very well.
Back then, Wang Xiao had monopolized three Golden Immortals by himself. He had turned the tide of the battle, and could be said to be incomparably brave.
Only those who had participated in King Yue's banquet knew about the inside story. After the banquet, everyone kept their mouths shut and kept quiet about the details.
The Third Elder was the same. Although he knew the details, he didn't mention it to the Second Elder or the Great Elder. He just kept it in his heart.
However, although Wang Xiao was incomparably brave and his performance in King Yue's Palace was incomparably shocking, the situation was different this time. He had to face almost the entire Zhang Ling County, and there might even be Immortal Sects of Yu Xiao Domain secretly participating.
After all, the news spread too quickly. In just two to three days, it had spread across the entire Zhang Ling County, and perhaps even to the Yu Xiao Region.
One must know that it was left behind by an Ancient Sage expert to come to the treasure.
In Yuxiao County, ancient sage experts were sufficient to establish immortal sects. Those immortal sects were able to absorb the inheritance of other ancient sage experts, and their overall strength could rise to a whole new level.
And to those ordinary immortal sects, the value of the inheritances of Ancient Sages was as boundless as the ocean. They only needed to obtain a single strand of the nine oxen, and they would be able to obtain endless benefits.
A single power definitely could not be greedy. A promise was more than enough to be given to Zhang Ling County's super powers and first-rate powers.
Thus, the forces of Zhang Ling County were not worried about not being able to get a share. As long as they participated, they would be able to obtain a piece of the pie.
There were even rumors that True Jade Ancient Sage's treasure was actually in the ancient battlefield. Countless experts had fallen in there. High grade Dao Arts, high grade pills, supreme treasures, spirit treasures and Virtuous Paragon True Treasures were everywhere. There were indeed more than ten true treasures.
Everyone had long been shocked by the news of True Jade's Ancient Virtuous Paragon Treasure. They naturally wouldn't doubt the authenticity of this news. They all believed it to be true and couldn't hold it in any longer.
"Third Elder, there is no need to worry. Eat well, drink well, and sleep well."
Wang Xiao did not say anything else when he heard this. He only consoled the Third Elder that he did not need to be nervous.
"Sect Master, your eyebrows are already on fire. If you don't come up with a plan, I won't leave."
The Third Elder glanced at Wang Xiao. He didn't care about his status as an elder and sat down on the ground.
"My eyebrows are on fire. How can we eat well and sleep well?"
The Third Elder added.
"It seems that you are not alone. Did First Elder and Second Elder ask you to come?"
Wang Xiao couldn't help but ask.
The Third Elder didn't say anything, which meant that he had tacitly agreed to it.
"You only need to convey a word." Wang Xiao was silent for a moment, then he said.
"What words?"
The Third Elder looked at Wang Xiao.
"With me, Wang Xiao, here, no one can shake the Jade Stream Sect!"
Wang Xiao looked at the Third Elder and said seriously.
The Third Elder also looked at Wang Xiao. Ever since he knew Wang Xiao, he had never seen Wang Xiao nervous about anything. He had always been full of confidence.
At first, he thought that Wang Xiao was arrogant and conceited, but later on, he realized that Wang Xiao had the right to be confident.
Wang Xiao had always displayed absolute confidence. He did not panic when dealing with matters, and even when the sky fell, he was still unable to shake Wang Xiao.
At this moment, it was as if the Third Elder had returned to the time when he was facing the three guardians of the devilish specters in King Yue's Palace.
At that time, no one thought that Wang Xiao could turn the tide. After all, Wang Xiao seemed to be only a mid Earth Immortal expert. How could he possibly be a match for three Golden Immortals?
However, the truth was that Wang Xiao had fought the three Golden Immortals with all his strength and turned the tide, reversing his battle record. Otherwise, he wouldn't be standing here right now. He would have turned into a corpse a long time ago.
Therefore, when Wang Xiao said those words, the image of Wang Xiao's invincible figure in King Yue Prefecture emerged in the Third Elder's mind.
If he had to use some words to describe his impression of Wang Xiao, it would be - unfathomable!
For some reason, the Third Elder was no longer as nervous as before. Perhaps he thought that he trusted Wang Xiao, but now he had some confidence in Wang Xiao. He believed that with Wang Xiao around, Jade Stream Sect would be safe and sound.
"En, I will pass on the Sect Master's words to the two senior brothers."
"However, should we send disciples to monitor the Nameless Lake?"
Above the Jade Creek Sect, a hundred miles away, in the middle of the Seeping River, the Nameless Lake was the entrance. The Bermuda Sect and the other factions who had spread the news would definitely know about it. Moreover, if the news were to spread, the Nameless Lake would naturally become a place of contention.
"There's no need, there's no need at all. Since they are willing to fight for it, let them fight for it."
Wang Xiao waved his hand when he heard this.
"En, then I will retire!"
The Third Elder nodded and cupped his hands at Wang Xiao before leaving.
After a while, Li Yan walked out of her room and came to Wang Xiao.
"Sir!"
Li Yan cupped her hands at Wang Xiao respectfully, as if she was talking to an elder.
After that, she seemed to want to say something but stopped herself. She just stood where she was.
"What's the matter?"
Wang Xiao seemed to have predicted something and asked directly.
"There are some matters in the sect that I might need to leave for a period of time?"
Li Yan looked at Wang Xiao and said.
"Is it Qu Liang who summoned you back?"2
Wang Xiao asked again.
"No, it's a message from a friend of mine. He said that the Startling Rain Sect hasn't been peaceful lately. So I... " Li Yan was afraid that Wang Xiao would think too much, so she looked at Wang Xiao's expression as she spoke. She didn't dare to continue.
"En, en. Go. There might be some trouble in the Shocking Rain Sect recently. I'll let you take a few days off to go back and take a look. After all, you're the Gold Medallion disciple of the Startling Rain Sect. Qu Liang Zhizun's head disciple, the Shocking Rain Sect has matters to attend to. You should go back. This is your duty, it is only natural."
Wang Xiao said indifferently.
"Yes, yes. Thank you, sir!"
Upon hearing this, a rare smile bloomed on Li Yan's face. Although it was only a fleeting smile, it was not hard to tell Li Yan's mood.
"Go!"
Wang Xiao said indifferently.
"Ok."
Li Yan nodded and was about to leave.
"Wait a moment!"
However, at this moment, Wang Xiao called out to Li Yan again. Then, with both of his fingers together, a sword qi shot into Li Yan's body.
"This sword qi can be used three times. When you encounter an unresolvable danger, use it."
Wang Xiao looked at Li Yan and said faintly.
"Yes, thank you, sir."
Li Yan once again cupped her hands towards Wang Xiao. A strange feeling arose in her heart, but she quickly suppressed it and left with the wind.
