YM778.TV Chapter 9
Even so, Xie Yixuan did not give up and tried to get close to her.
Shen Hai’s eyes turned and he already had some ideas in his heart. He walked to Xie Yixuan’s side and said softly, “Elder Xie, I really feel sorry for you.”
Xie Yixuan glanced at him. He had only known Shen Hai for a short time and had not interacted much with him. He was a little confused, “Why do you feel sorry for me?”
“You and the sect master are a perfect match, and your family background is so extraordinary. I think you are the most worthy of the sect master. I have high hopes for you two.”
Hearing this, Xie Yixuan’s face was filled with pride, and even his tone became much friendlier, “First elder, what are you saying?”
“But...”
“But?”
Shen Hai looked at Xie Yixuan and helplessly said, “Didn’t you notice that the sect master treats this kid very differently? She actually brought him here personally and even emphasized on his status and identity.”
Xie Yixuan sneered, “He’s not worthy. He’s only at level 2 of Human Realm. The sect leader would only be interested in him if she’s not blind.”
He didn’t take Ye Xuan seriously. Such a person wasn’t worthy of being his competitor.
Shen Hai sighed, “Maybe he’s not worthy, but the sect master has eyes for him. Have you and I ever been treated like this?”
These words somehow did make some sense. Xie Yixuan’s expression gradually turned cold, and he could not help but feel a sense of crisis in his heart.
Seeing that the fish was now on the hook, Shen Hai’s lips slowly curled up and he continued to adding the trimmings, “You see, if this brat’s tongue is glib some more, wouldn’t an otherworldly woman like sect master be easily deceived by him?”
Before he could finish her sentence, Xie Yixuan interrupted him through gritted teeth, “He wouldn’t dare!”
“Thank you for your kind reminder, great elder!”
Looking at Xie Yixuan’s appearance, Shen Hai knew that his plan had succeeded. He didn’t need to do anything, and someone would naturally settle Ye Xuan.
At this moment, everyone was gathered together. It looked harmonious on the surface, but there were undercurrents surging in reality.
Ye Xuan could feel an extremely cold gaze. He turned around and found that it was a young man about his age. Han Yue seemed to have introduced him as the eighteenth elder.
Xie Yixuan snorted coldly when he saw Ye Xuan looking at him. He was obviously not pleased.
Ye Xuan felt a little strange. He didn’t know how he had offended this person, but he didn’t take it to heart. After all, there were so many people present, and they were all extremely unconvinced of his sudden appearance.
“I’ve gathered all of you here today to choose a mountain for our sect. I wonder if anyone has any suggestions.”
The ancient map slowly unfolded in front of everyone, and they saw a few places circled in red. They were Cloud Waterfall, Hidden Mist Forest, Qixia mountain range, and Wu Ling Yuan.
“These places have more abundant spiritual energy. They’re suitable for the establishment of a sect.”
“How about the Cloud Waterfall? There are very few demonic beasts there. If the sect is built there, it can avoid attacks from demonic beasts.”
As soon as the second elder opened his mouth, the third elder objected, “But the Cloud Waterfall is very steep, and it’s very inconvenient to get in and out. If it’s a disciple who can’t ride a flying sword, it’s impossible to get over. I think it’s better to go to Wu Ling Yuan.”
The fifth elder hesitated and said, “But there are already a few sects around Wu Ling Yuan. The resources have been divided up. The competition is too intense. We have just been established, and we can’t compete with them. What if someone comes to find trouble with us?”
The fourth elder’s expression was cold as he said domineeringly, “I’ll beat up as many as they come. Whenever a new sect is established, people will come and find trouble. If you’re afraid, why establish a sect? You might as well go home and farm.”
His words seemed to be mocking the fifth elder’s cowardice. Fifth elder’s expression changed slightly, “What do you mean by that? Then tell me, which place should we choose?”
“Why don’t we choose Hidden Mist Forest?” the fifth elder said without hesitation, “There are many resources there, and there is no sect there.”
Everyone looked at him as if they were looking at a monster.
“There are many resources there, but there is no sect. Why don’t you think about why?”
Who didn’t know that Hidden Mist Forest was filled with fog all year round? Moreover, the ancient trees inside were intertwined with each other. The trees covered the sky and the Sun. It was like a maze, so it was easy to get lost in it.
It was said that many people would disappear every year, which gave it the name “Hidden Mist.”
“I think you’re going to make the disciples of Tai Qing Sect as dinner for the demonic beasts in the forest. The food has already been delivered to the door, so how can they not eat?” the second elder said sarcastically.
Everyone’s faces were red, and they were on the verge of fighting. Everyone had their own opinions, and no one could convince the other. Everyone hoped to choose a place they liked as the sect’s address.
Only Ye Xuan was the quietest among them and didn’t express his opinion.
“Elder Ye, what do you think?”
As soon as these words came out, the entire place fell silent. More than a dozen pairs of eyes fell on Ye Xuan at the same time, with their eager gazes.
Ye Xuan’s mind was wandering, thinking about how to complete the task and earn prodigal points. He didn’t expect Han Yue to suddenly call his name.
“I... I don’t have any opinion.”
“Which one do you think is a better position?”
Ye Xuan didn’t think too much and pointed casually, “Let’s do it here!”
He was referring to Qixia mountain range.
There were mountains and trees here, and part of the terrain was flat. There were not many sects in the surrounding area too, so it was a suitable location for a sect. The only drawback was that there were often demon beasts going out nearby.
“Qixia mountain range then,” Han Yue said after some thought.
