Legend of the Great Sage

Chapter 1415: Li Liehuo



Chapter 1415: Li Liehuo

Ruan Yaozhu berated him righteously. “Not only do you all gather around to gamble, but you even go as far as to break the rules of the Myriad sect for the sake of a gamble, abusing the authority you possess. Is this something that we direct disciples should be doing?”

Ge Xing raised both hands and leaned backwards. “Err, junior sister, if you want to blame someone, blame Le Tian! This is all his horrible idea. There’s Pi Yangqiu as well. Those two old gamblers came up with a scheme to screw us over. We can’t just stand by and get ripped off without fighting back.”

He was in a weaker position, but he refused to concede. This had to do with a huge sum of Green Jade bookmarks, and there were so many other direct disciples standing behind him. He could not concede, nor was there the need to concede.

If Li Qingshan were a female cultivator and belonged to the first senior sister’s faction, then they could only pray that he would die from cultivation deviation. This conscription order would never take effect. However, of all the people to offend, this kid had severely offended Chao Tianjiao. They did not even have to try anything underhanded, so why would they let him go?

Then he pointed at Li Qingshan. “And this kid got a thousand Green Jade bookmarks from Le Tian, redeeming a heavenly tome right from the beginning. He’s gotten such a huge advantage, so how can there be no consequences at all?”

Li Qingshan gazed at the sky as if he could see the flow of fate. Curses and blessings came hand in hand. Everything he had been through since arriving in the Myriad sect mingled together, such that it was difficult to distinguish whether it was a curse or a blessing.

Ruan Yaozhu sighed gently and glanced at Li Qingshan. “I still must request you to take that back, senior brother. He’s very important to the Hundred Herbs garden.”

Ge Xing said, “That might be beyond my power. You’re welcome to use that Shen Yushu from before again. He should be very willing to return to the Hundred Herbs garden.”

Ruan Yaozhu raised her head. “Then we can only talk about this in the Direct Disciple hall.”

Normally, the Myriad sect was self-administered by direct disciples, so the Direct Disciple hall was the most critical facility in place. Once any major matters arose, or if there were any disputes between direct disciples, they would go into the Direct Disciple hall for discussion with all the direct disciples before coming to a final verdict.

It prevented all direct clashes. Internal struggles were definitely forbidden between direct disciples, even when it came to public duels. That was the most important rule of the Myriad sect. From a certain perspective, Le Tian’s gamble gave the direct disciples an opportunity to contend with one another.

“Is this really worth it, junior sister?” Ge Xing asked. She would be confronting them over an inner disciple, even if he had the talent to become a direct disciple.

“You are getting in the way of the interests of my Hundred Herbs garden, so of course, I have to hold my ground.”

“It’s useless. You won’t win even if you take this matter to the Direct Disciple hall.” They possessed an absolute advantage in numbers. Even if Le Tian and Pi Yangqiu stood forward, it would be very difficult to change the situation.

“You’ll only know when you try.” Ruan Yaozhu signalled Li Qingshan. “Let’s return to the Hundred Herbs garden for now.”

“Yes.” Li Qingshan knew he owed her very much, so he could not be bothered with putting up a show to turn her down. He was certain that he would pay her back for everything she had done with his own two hands.

Suddenly, he stopped and looked back at a black stone hall nearby.

A violent aura rose up and murderousness gathered like a billowy beacon of smoke, rising into the sky. It was flashy and flagrant, without any attempts to disguise it, like a primordial beast climbing out from a live volcano. He could clearly sense a hint of scorching heat!

On the huge and simple formation, a large foot extended out from the scorching, twisted gate of light.

“It’s the teleportation hall!” the female officer said. Her eyes lit up with admiration. “He’s returned.”

Ge Xing said in surprise, “Why’s he early this time?”

The Department of Military Provisions fell silent for a moment before erupting with cheers. “It’s first senior brother! First senior brother has returned!”

Li Qingshan felt very uncomfortable when he heard that phrase. Basically all of them would work against him by nature. Even that fool Chu Tian had actually been the first senior brother of the Myriad sect, so how was he supposed to explain that? Meanwhile, when he finally became a first senior brother himself, he only had a single junior brother, and he was expelled very soon afterwards.

Just recently, he had met a first senior sister, and she had already caused him countless problems. Now that he had run into a first senior brother, he was better off simply leaving first!

Li Qingshan was about to leave when Ge Xing’s expression suddenly changed. He said to Li Qingshan in surprise, “Junior brother Li, first senior brother is summoning you. First senior brother leads an army and returns to rest at regular intervals. He’s suddenly returned along this time probably because of you.”

The female officer basically found that to be unbelievable. She became filled with envy yet again. Just why did this kid deserve so much respect and special treatment?

However, Li Qingshan felt even more uncomfortable. He experienced an ill omen like trouble was waiting to happen.

“Let’s go together!” Ruan Yaozhu said, “I’m sure senior brother Li will ensure everything remains fair.”

“Senior brother Li!”

Li Qingshan immediately recalled that the name underneath Lin Xuan’s did indeed have the surname Li. Back then, he was not particularly fazed by it. There were plenty of people who shared the same surnames, and “Li” was not a particularly rare surname either, but now, he felt a little pained.

Arriving at the teleportation hall, he immediately saw the first senior brother, Li Liehuo.

Perhaps it was better said that they could not shift their gaze away from where he stood. There was a group of cultivators staring at him right now.

His appearance was simple and dignified, like a statue of a god carved in the ancient times. His long hair resembled fire, rising and curling about.

Under his scarlet armour, he was covered in muscles, but it definitely did not seem excessive. Instead, it was filled with an explosive sense of strength. He carried a huge blade on his back as he stood on the formation with his arms crossed before his chest. The scorching, twisted teleportation gate behind him illuminated his figure, making him seem even taller and larger.

As soon as Li Qingshan entered the hall, a pair of fiery-red eyes became fixed on him, intensifying the scorching sensation. He felt like he would be burned to ash if it were not for the phoenix’s bloodline. He stared back at him without any signs of weakness and reached a conclusion with a single glance.

I hate this guy!

“You’re Li Qingshan?” Li Liehuo asked with a smile.

With his smile, his simple face immediately became lively, while his dignified appearance became fervent, naturally giving people a good impression of him.

“I am.” Li Qingshan nodded, but he found him even more annoying.

“I’ve heard all about you. I’m certain you’re capable of making contributions to the battlefield, but this should be what you want, not something you are forced into doing because of others!” Li Liehuo glanced at Ge Xing. Ge Xing smiled awkwardly and shrank back a little.

Ruan Yaozhu beamed with joy. “Sure enough, senior brother is a reasonable and sensible man.”

Li Liehuo teased her. “Little Yaozhu, how do I compare to your senior sister Chao?”

We are Hosted Nov3l, find us on g00gle.

Ruan Yaozhu smiled. “Obviously not as great.”

Li Qingshan laughed aloud, making his voice boom through the hall.

“But the junior brother Li beside you wants to challenge your senior sister Chao.”

“I am deeply grateful for your generosity and righteousness, senior brother.”

Li Qingshan clasped his hands. Had he specially come back to serve as a “saviour”? But they clearly did not know each other. Was it because he had conflict with Chao Tianjiao that he especially admired him?

“I am neither generous nor righteous, nor have I especially come to help you.” Li Liehuo suddenly cut to the chase. “Kid, hand over the formation disc to the Xuanming dwelling, and you can return to the Hundred Herbs garden to cultivate in peace.”

Li Qingshan shivered inside. I knew it!

“What, don’t tell me you don’t have a dwelling, senior brother?”

“It’s because you’re still unworthy of it. You can stop with your slick opportunism too!”

Li Liehuo’s expression became a little sterner, and the violent aura that resembled a primordial beast flooded over once more.
