Chapter 299: Cultivating Just to Play Catch Up, Disband of the Sword Pavilion
This scene did not only occur in the Nie family.
In the great desolate region, the same situation also occurred in the Li family.
Li Zhengxuan was seen pacing back and forth in front of a cultivation room in the Li family’s mansion.
Suddenly, the door of the cultivation room opened. Li Mengxi, dressed in a black robe, looked at Li Zhengxuan, who was pacing back and forth in front of the cultivation room, with an unfriendly expression.
“Big Brother, what are you doing? Don’t you know how annoying cultivation is?”
Hearing Li Mengxi’s words, Li Zhengxuan stopped in his tracks. He turned around to look at Li Mengxi, and his eyes lit up.
“Aiyo, little sister, you’re finally willing to come out.”
“If you have something to say, say it quickly. Don’t waste my time.”
Li Mengxi looked at her big brother helplessly. Ever since he and Zhao Xuening’s brother, Zhao Ritian, had resolved their differences, his personality had become more and more eccentric.
“Little sister, a lot of big things have happened in Central Plains recently. Do you want to hear about it?”
“Big things?”
She could not help but feel puzzled. After seeing her little sister’s interest, Li Zhengxuan began to tell her about the things that had happened in Zhongzhou over the past few days. This included Su Yi’s deeds.
Initially, Li Zhengxuan thought that his little sister would be shocked when she heard that Su Yi had broken through to the heavenly tribulation.
However, to his surprise, Li Mengxi was still expressionless. This made Li Zhengxuan’s heart jump. Could it be that his sister was broken?
Or could it be that the suspicion in his heart was wrong? Did his sister have no other intentions towards Su Yi?
Li Zhengxuan waved his hand in front of Li Mengxi’s eyes and then said indifferently, “little sister, are you alright?”
Li Mengxi looked at Li Zhengxuan with a strange expression and sighed as she slowly said, “big brother, do I look like I have something on my mind right now? Instead of cultivating, you come here to bother me all day. Later, I’ll tell father that you’re lonely and want to find a sister-in-law.”
Before Li Zhengxuan could reply, a servant ran in from outside the courtyard and exclaimed when he saw Li Zhengxuan. “Hello, Young Miss. So you’re here, Eldest Young Master. The Old Master has been looking for you for a long time.”
Li Zhengxuan turned his head to look at the servant. An ominous feeling suddenly flashed through his heart as he asked. “Father? Why is father looking for me?”
The servant bowed and said hurriedly. “Eldest Young Master, the Old Master wants you to go on a blind date…”
Pfft–
Hearing this, Li Mengxi was really amused. She had not expected that her casual words would actually come true. She looked at her big brother and said with a smile, taking pleasure in his misfortune. “Big brother, go and find me a sister-in-law in peace.”
Li Zhengxuan’s face had already darkened at this time. He did not expect that this matter would actually come true.
His figure moved as fast as a gust of wind, and then he disappeared in front of Li Mengxi and the servant, leaving only a sentence that echoed in the courtyard. “Just say that I’m in closed-door cultivation and don’t have time for blind dates!”
“Eldest Miss, this…” The servant looked at Li Zhengxuan who had gone far away, his face full of bitterness, not knowing what to do.
Li Mengxi waved her hand and said indifferently, “go report according to my brother’s instructions.”
“Yes, Eldest Miss.”
As the servant left, Li Mengxi stood in front of the door of the cultivation room. Her gaze looked through the courtyard in the direction of the Central Plains.
It was not that she did not care about Su Yi’s matter, but Nie Ling had already told her through the immortal destiny seal, and even told her the news that Su Yi had not died.
This was also the reason why they had started to cultivate in seclusion crazily. No one wanted to be too far behind. At the same time, they also wanted to go to the central sky region, to that bigger stage.
It was not just Li Mengxi who was thinking this way. Whether it was Nie Ling or Zhao Xuening, they would occasionally go to the Central Plains to meet up and discuss their respective strength improvements.
Of course, this was something for another time.
Just as the three women were in closed-door cultivation for the past few days, another earth-shaking event came from the southern region of the great desolate.
The Sword Pavilion had actually disbanded!
At this moment, the main hall of the Sword Pavilion headquarters was filled with disciples of the Sword Pavilion. There were noises everywhere, and the position of the pavilion master was empty. Not only that, the position of the second-in-command, the third elder, was also empty.
The only influential second elder was facing the noisy disciples of the Sword Pavilion in the main hall, his scalp tingling.
“Second elder, the property of our Sword Pavilion can’t sustain the business operation at all.”
“That’s right, second elder. Previously, the pavilion master said that he would collect spirit stones for his own use. Now that the spirit stones have been handed over, the pavilion master has yet to return. What happened?”
…
Listening to the noisy disciples, the second elder of the Sword Pavilion felt a headache coming on. Back then, when Xuan Mingzi and Xuan Lingzi were around, he almost did not manage anything. In other words, he did not have the right to manage the affairs of the Sword Pavilion at all.
All the affairs were under the control of the two brothers, so he could not interfere at all.
That’s right, the second elder’s surname was not Xuan. Many years ago, the second elder of the Sword Pavilion was lucky enough to break through the realm and go to the central sky realm. At that time, his strength was just enough to become an elder, therefore, he became the second elder of the Sword Pavilion in name, but not in reality.
When he thought about how he had been living a meaningless life all these years, and how he realized that Xuan Mingzi had probably left the great desolate region, he was furious.
‘Damn it, I’ve been swallowing my anger for so many years, and now I’m left with a mess to deal with?’
The more he thought about it, the angrier the second elder became. He waved his hand and threw the teacup on the stage to the ground.
Bang–
“Stop making so much noise!”
The crisp sound of the porcelain cup shattering and a loud shout instantly silenced the entire Sword Pavilion main hall.
In the eyes of these disciples of the Sword Pavilion, the second elder of the Sword Pavilion was currently a little red-eyed, and his chest was heaving up and down violently.
The strength of a late-stage foundation establishment cultivator was released twice, and the atmosphere in the entire Sword Pavilion main hall instantly became solemn.
The second elder of the Sword Pavilion looked at the disciples with sharp eyes and said in a cold voice, “everyone, unfortunately, I have to tell you a piece of news. Our Sword Pavilion master abandoned us and left the great desolate region before the great desolate disaster arrived. He even cleaned out all the finances of the Sword Pavilion.”
“You have also seen the current Sword Pavilion. It is full of losses and bankruptcy everywhere.”
“The Sword Pavilion can no longer be maintained, and there is no point in maintaining it. After today, the Sword Pavilion will be disbanded. Everyone, go back and find your own homes.”
With that, the second elder of the Sword Pavilion slumped into his chair. This was the first time he had given orders in his many years as the second elder, but the order was to disband the Sword Pavilion.
It could be seen how ridiculous this was.
The second elder’s words caused the entire place to be extremely silent. Even the sound of a pin drop could be heard.
No one spoke anymore. Everyone knew very well that if they continued to maintain the name of the Sword Pavilion, it would only bring about sorrow. Perhaps disbanding the Sword Pavilion was the best route.
When the announcement to disband the Sword Pavilion appeared in the great desolate, it caused a huge uproar. Old Master Lin Yan, who lived in the Nie family’s mansion, held a portrait in his hands and was somewhat sad and happy.
The next few years in the great desolate region were peaceful and peaceful. Nothing major happened, nor did anything shocking happen. The Nie family’s trading company grew stronger and stronger, even suppressing the Thousand Treasures Pavilion in the great desolate region.
At the same time, Nie Ling also gained a younger brother.
These were all things that would come later. At that time, the three women were no longer in the great desolate region, and all the stories would continue to be told in the central sky region.
