Su Chen gazed into the distance, his eyes deep. As it stood, this person seemed perfectly fine, everything appeared normal, so he decided to observe him further.
What a pity.
I thought I'd find out the result this time.
Su Chen didn't expect to know everything about himself immediately; even just a little bit would satisfy him.
He shook his head and looked away.
Three days later, the Haoran Sect sent people to take all the Disciple back, leaving only the other powerful members of the sect on the ground.
Su Chen did not leave, but his attention was no longer on Shuiyue City; his gaze remained fixed on Crescent Moon City and on Chunlan.
He wanted to see what unusual behavior the woman would exhibit next.
The Demon Race came with great force and almost destroyed Shuiyue City, but in the end all the Demon Beast inexplicably receded like the tide, and everything returned to normal.
It's incredibly bizarre.
Many people, seeing the momentum, thought another Human-Demon War was about to begin, but it turned out to be a false alarm.
Three Grand Unity Golden Immortal died in the battle around Shuiyue City. Thanks to the protection of their Great Elder Li Yaoguang, their Haoran Sect has never had Elder- level figure perish.
The others in the Haoran Sect also heard about Su Chen's deeds, and they all felt somewhat flustered at the prospect of challenging the Nine Stars Empire's Imperial Family.
The Nine Stars Empire is a true behemoth, something that the Haoran Sect can only look up to. If the Imperial Family wants to cause trouble for Su Chen's actions, the Haoran Sect will be in for a world of hurt.
This time, they gathered together again, their expressions grave as they discussed how to resolve the matter.
The Demon Beast have only just retreated, and the Imperial Family is busy cleaning up. Once these matters are resolved, they will likely come knocking on their door.
The Royal Family Imperial Family killed in public.
Haoran Sect had been a hot topic in Fengyang County recently, and because of this incident, many people were spreading rumors that Haoran Sect was suspected of treason, and there were quite a lot of people saying this.
"Or should we just go directly to the Imperial Family and apologize?"
One of the Elder couldn't help but speak up.
Yun Mo said directly, "I'll go?"
Su Chen made a mistake, and as the Sect Leader, he certainly bears responsibility. Therefore, it would be best for him to apologize to the Imperial Family. After all, only Li Liang died; it shouldn't be the Haoran Sect that should be blamed, right?
The Third Elder hesitated, though he really wanted to say that Su Chen's servants were Immortal Lord level experts.
Is it really appropriate to say something like that?
After all, he hadn't obtained Su Chen's consent, and thus exposed his Trump Cards without permission.
The Third Elder's eyes were filled with solemnity. He had thought a lot these past few days. Su Chen was definitely from a top-tier power. He had extraordinary talent and powerful protectors behind him. His background must involve Immortal Venerable.
How could someone like that possibly fear the Nine Stars Empire's Imperial Family?
Yun Mo turned to the Great Elder, who was not far behind, and asked, "Great Elder, what do you think should be done?"
The Great Elder remained silent for a long while before slowly saying, "Su Chen... isn't stupid. Besides, I can't see through him, so it's better to do nothing. Perhaps Elder Su Chen can handle it himself?"
Solve it yourself?
Everyone was filled with doubt. If the problem was solved, all would be well, but what if it wasn't?
Wouldn't they all die?
The dignity of the Imperial Family cannot be challenged. If anyone can kill members of the Imperial Family and get away with it, who will still respect the Imperial Family in the future?
Just like when Disciple of their Haoran Sect dies, they will definitely cause trouble. Otherwise, the Disciple of the Haoran Sect will not be protected in the future, and outsiders will think that the higher-ups of the Haoran Sect do not care about the lives of their Disciple, so it is okay to kill them.
And.
If this matter is ignored, the Disciple will definitely harbor resentment, and the same applies to the Imperial Family.
Therefore, this matter will certainly not end here.
The Third Elder immediately interjected, "I think the Great Elder is right. Su Chen definitely has the ability to solve this problem."
Everyone immediately looked at the Third Elder, their eyes filled with doubt. Everyone was so worried, so what gave him such confidence in Su Chen?
I don't think you two usually interact much.
The Third Elder coughed twice and said matter-of-factly, "Elder Su Chen is no ordinary person. To have such Cultivation Level at such a young age, he must have his own Trump Cards. He might not be afraid of the Nine Stars Empire."
His words caused the crowd's expressions to become even stranger.
He's not even afraid of the Nine Stars Empire?
How is that possible!
The Nine Stars Empire boasts several Immortal Lord level experts, and its Ancestor is even close to the Immortal Venerable level. In the entire Central Continent, there are very few who are not afraid of it.
Su Chen is definitely not among them.
Although Su Chen was exceptionally talented and extremely mysterious, they simply did not believe that he had Trump Cards that would allow him to be unafraid of such a person.
Just then, an anxious voice suddenly sounded from outside the door.
"Reporting to the Sect Leader, Elder Li Bi of the Imperial Family has come to visit."
Li Bi!
The Elder of the Haoran Sect felt a sudden jolt in their hearts, their eyes filled with a hint of panic. Li Bi was Clan Chief and also the garrison commander of Fengyang County. Although he did not have any real power and could not manage the affairs of Fengyang County, he was responsible for inspection.
If any violations occur within Fengyang County, he will report them truthfully and even has the authority to impose direct penalties.
The power may not be large, but it is very intimidating to some people.
Moreover, although he doesn't wield much power, his strength is terrifying. He is a genuine Immortal King, with strength comparable to that of Commandery Governor. For such a person to personally come to our door is probably quite extraordinary.
Yun Mo stood up. "Please let him in."
He walked out of the Council Meeting hall and into the Reception Hall, where he waited quietly.
However, Yun Mo was constantly thinking about how to Past this hurdle. Li Liang was ultimately just a nobody, and the Imperial Family wouldn't risk antagonizing his Haoran Sect over someone like him.
However, pressure is definitely present.
Soon, a figure with his hands behind his back walked in, and the entire reception hall was immediately enveloped in an extremely oppressive atmosphere.
The newcomer was dressed in luxurious clothes, exuding an air of superiority, and his eyes were full of disdain.
Upon seeing this, Yun Mo quickly stepped forward and bowed, saying, "Greetings, Elder Li Bi!"
Li Bi glanced at Yun Mo with disdain and snorted coldly.
This cold snort was like a thunderclap, instantly exploding in Yun Mo's mind, making him dizzy and causing his Sea of Consciousness to churn.
Yun Mo swallowed hard, his heart filled with horror.
Such formidable strength!
Li Bi said coldly, "Sect Master Yun is truly impressive. The Haoran Sect killed members of my Royal Family, and now they don't even respect my Imperial Family anymore?"
His tone was full of accusation, and the entire hall felt like an ice cellar, extremely cold.
Yun Mo quickly bowed and said, "Elder Li, that was just a misunderstanding, completely unintentional. My Haoran Sect is willing to make any compensation to appease the Imperial Family's anger."
"Bang!"
No sooner had he finished speaking than Li Bi raised his hand and waved it, sending Yun Mo flying backward and spitting out a mouthful of blood.
Li Bi's tone was full of disdain. "Compensation? Do you think my Imperial Family would even look at what your Haoran Sect has to offer? If you dare to kill someone from my Imperial Family, then you will have to pay the price."
"Even if Li Liang were Collateral Line of my Royal Family, or even if he were just a dog of my Royal Family, you are not allowed to touch him."
"Sect Master Yun, don't blame me for not giving your Haoran Sect a chance to live. Hand over the murderer who killed Li Liang, and you... Cultivation Level, and then hand over all the profits of the Haoran Sect for the next 100,000 years, and your Haoran Sect can continue to exist. Otherwise, after today, there will be no Haoran Sect in this world."
