Things Never Go as One Wishes

Upon hearing this, the surrounding crowd erupted in uproar. Yue Qianchou had actually agreed to a one-on-one duel with Luo Qingtian, the Daluo Sect Master. Did Yue Qianchou really believe that his cultivation level could contend with Luo Qingtian, who mid Tribulation stage? Amidst the shock, everyone felt that this was a joke, a joke at Yue Qianchou's overestimation of his abilities, and a joke at Yue Qianchou's undeniable madness.

Ziyi obediently withdrew, and there was a hint of excitement on her face. She had never seen her Bi Changchun make a move, but seeing the disciple of the Number One Expert Under Heaven make a move would satisfy her curiosity, and she was very much looking forward to it.

Dongfang Changao frowned. Yue Qianchou, the disciple who was expelled from Fu Xian Island, was someone that the entire Fu Xian Island both loved and hated, seemingly with more love. After all, he had not done anything too outrageous to Fu Xian Island, and was even deeply appreciated by the older generation of Fu Xian Island. At a young age, he had already made a great name for himself in the Cultivation World. To be honest, the people of Fu Xian Island were very proud of him, and the younger generation of disciples even regarded him as an idol.

With such a talented and outstanding disciple, already included in the list of disciples that Fu Xian Island would focus on cultivating, it was believed that in a few years, Fu Xian Island would produce another prominent figure in the Cultivation World, bringing glory to Fu Xian Island. However, because of the now-extinct Qingguang Sect, Yue Qianchou was expelled from the sect by Feng Xiangtian in a fit of anger for arguing with the sect leader. After this incident, how many people on Fu Xian Island felt deep regret! But in order to maintain the sect leader's prestige, no one mentioned the matter again.

However, after the Qingguang Sect was wiped out, Yue Qianchou became famous in the Cultivation World outside Hundred Flower Valley with his self-created 'Star Flame Fire Art'. This caused a huge stir on Fu Xian Island, with everyone discussing it. Many people started mentioning Yue Qianchou again, and some even suggested bringing Yue Qianchou back to Fu Xian Island. Their reasoning was that Yue Qianchou had been expelled from the Qingguang Sect because of its questioning, and now that the Qingguang Sect was gone, no one would pursue the past anymore, so bringing Yue Qianchou back to Fu Xian Island was not unreasonable.

For this matter, Grandma Ma Jiu personally went to Feng Xiangtian. Grandma Ma Jiu said, "It is true that Yue Qianchou made mistakes before, but now that Qingguang Sect is gone, and his exposure of the Yan family father and son has benefited Fu Xian Island, it can be seen that he still cares about Fu Xian Island. At the same time, his exposure has also benefited the entire Cultivation World. It is most appropriate to take Yue Qianchou back to Fu Xian Island on this pretext."

However, Feng Xiangtian was concerned about Yue Qianchou's killing of the Daluo Sect Master's son and a group of disciples outside Hundred Flower Valley. Grandma Ma Jiu retorted bluntly, "Many people in the Cultivation World witnessed what happened. It was clearly the Daluo Sect that provoked us first, and they had agreed beforehand that neither side would pursue the other's responsibility. Moreover, Yue Qianchou fought against overwhelming odds with his lower cultivation level. Based on that alone, the Daluo Sect has nothing to say. If Yue Qianchou weren't now alone and helpless in the Cultivation World, how could the Daluo Sect have broken their promise and retaliated?" Grandma Ma Jiu added, "If the Daluo Sect really insists on holding this matter against us, I will personally go to the Daluo Sect and reason with those old fogies. I don't believe that brat Luo Qingtian can control everything in the Daluo Sect."

After a conversation, Feng Xiangtian, though reluctant to agree due to pride, was assured by Grandma Ma Jiu that she would find a way to ensure Yue Qianchou's return wouldn't damage the sect leader's reputation. Feng Xiangtian thus acquiesced. However, while Fu Xian Island was frantically searching for Yue Qianchou, he seemed to have vanished from the entire Cultivation World. Some on Fu Xian Island even speculated that the Daluo Sect might have secretly found Yue Qianchou and quietly killed him, as doing so Daluo Sect would be seen as breaking their promise. Although most wouldn't say it aloud, the fact remained. Because of Yue Qianchou's disappearance, the matter was almost forgotten.

However, just yesterday, news suddenly came from Hat Island that Yue Qianchou had appeared and was personally received by the Wu family head. This news quickly spread throughout Fu Xian Island, and so, the most senior retainer of Fu Xian Island Grandma Ma Jiu, the former sect leader Guan Dinghai, the chief elder of the Cultivation Pavilion Ou Sihai, the chief elder of the Alchemy Pavilion Guan Wei Wu family, the chief elder of Myriad Fragrance Garden Fei Denan, and a group of others, all went to find the sect leader one after another.

Feng Xiangtian was giving instructions to Dongfang Changao when this group of people suddenly appeared at their door. Both were taken aback, never expecting that Yue Qianchou, who had left Fu Xian Island years ago, would wield such influence. Feng Xiangtian didn't hesitate; it was something he had tacitly approved before. Besides, after Yue Qianchou returned to Fu Xian Island, his self-created profound fire technique, whether contributed or not, would ultimately become a product of Fu Xian Island, a great achievement for him as the sect leader. Therefore, he immediately ordered Dongfang Changao to carry it out.

At the same time, Feng Xiangtian immediately thought that the Daluo Sect might also be making moves, so he carefully instructed Dongfang Changao and told him to act according to the circumstances. Before leaving, Dongfang Changao asked the others, "If Yue Qianchou refuses to return to Fu Xian Island, what should I do?"

The group fell silent upon hearing this. From beginning to end, it had all been Fu Xian Island's wishful thinking; they had never considered Yue Qianchou's feelings. In their minds, Fu Xian Island was the most powerful sect in the world; who wouldn't want to be associated with it, and why would anyone refuse? However, Yue Qianchou often acted recklessly and frequently did outrageous things—they were all well aware of this. What if he didn't want to come back? They couldn't just forcibly bring him! What would be the point then?

After a moment of silence, Grandma Ma Jiu suddenly laughed, as if she had thought of a solution. The others looked at her questioningly. Grandma Ma Jiu smiled and said, "Back then, I could tell that the boy was quite different from ordinary people, so I did him a favor. As a result, he owed me a promise. I originally had another purpose for this promise, but now it seems I might have to use it on himself. Chang'ao, try your best to persuade him to come back. If he doesn't come back, ask him if he still remembers the promise he owed me Grandma Ma Jiu. Tell him that I, Grandma Ma Jiu, want him to come to Fu Xian Island to fulfill the promise I made to him back then."

"Such a thing is true? That makes things much easier!" Dongfang Changao Chang'ao, having received his orders, rushed over overnight. However, the events before him were truly unexpected. His polite and measured words were intended to buy Yue Qianchou some time. If Yue Qianchou agreed to return to Fu Xian Island, he would have a way to bring Yue Qianchou back. After all, the strength of the number one sect in the world was not to be underestimated. Once Yue Qianchou was on Fu Xian Island and his status as a Fu Xian Island was confirmed, the rest would naturally be handled by Grandma Ma Jiu, who had given her guarantee. Presumably, there would be a way to restrain Luo Qingtian.

But who would have thought that Luo Qingtian Yue Qianchou would agree to the challenge without hesitation? Dongfang Changao was now in a dilemma. He had just said on behalf of Fu Xian Island that he would not interfere in their private feuds. He couldn't very well slap Fu Xian Island in front of so many people. But if he didn't intervene, how could he explain it to the people in the sect who had entrusted him with important tasks... Now, he could only wait for an opportune moment to act.

Dongfang Changao retreated speechlessly. Chou Wuyuan clicked his tongue, not knowing what to say. Actually, he was also Myriad Demon Palace to target Yue Qianchou, but their ideas differed quite a bit from those of Fu Xian Island. What they valued was Yue Qianchou's mysterious fire technique that could kill people of higher levels. As long as they recruited Yue Qianchou into the Myriad Demon Palace, they were not afraid of not being able to extract anything from him.

However, as Dongfang Changao said, now is not the time for internal strife due to the invasion of foreign enemies. Moreover, to deal with the external enemy, the Righteous and Demonic paths of the entire Cultivation World have temporarily allied, setting aside their differences. The current Cultivation Alliance is no longer just between the Righteous Path and demonic paths; it also includes the demonic path. The current situation is that everyone, regardless of past grudges, must put them aside for now. Any issues will be addressed after the external enemy is defeated. Then, whatever they do will not violate that taboo that everyone in the Huaxia Cultivation World avoids. In worldly terms, it's about national righteousness—something neither the righteous nor the demonic can afford to offend.

Luo Qingtian, acting in the name of the Daluo Sect, provoked the Four Great Families first. Given the current state of the Cultivation World, this was undoubtedly related to offending something everyone taboo. Chou Wuyuan hesitation sided with the Four Great Families, using the opportunity to support Yue Qianchou. Who knew that with Dongfang Changao's intervention, this little madman Yue Qianchou would abandon the protection of the Four Great Families and challenge Luo Qingtian to a one-on-one duel? Did he really think Luo Qingtian was as easily intimidated as Zhu Xianxian? Wasn't this courting death?

In this way, not only Dongfang Changao, but even Chou Wuyuan longer interfere. The leader of a sect followed the rules, so Chou Wuyuan to interfere at this time.
