The Flower Sect's Traitor, Far-fetched

Hearing this,

Yun Yun no longer refused.

She reached out and accepted the pill Azure Fairy handed her, then said in a deep voice, "Thank you for the support of the two Supreme Elders and all the elders. Yun Yun certainly won't disappoint you."

Seeing Yun Yun accept the pill,

everyone present gazed at Yun Yun, whose beauty and grace within the hall were peerless.

A trace of relieved smiles appeared on their faces.

Compared to Hua Jin,

Yun Yun was indeed more suited to the position of Flower Sect Leader.

Just then, a Dou Venerate elder seemed to recall something and couldn't help sighing. "I wonder whether Hua Jin would regret the decision she made if she saw the Flower Sect's prosperity today?"

Hearing the words "Hua Jin,"

the smile on Hua Fairy's face instantly vanished. Her willow brows rose, and she said unhappily, "It's such a wonderful day. Why bring up that ungrateful wretch?"

The reason Hua Fairy was so furious

was mainly that Hua Jin, who had been raised and nurtured by the Flower Sect since childhood, had ultimately chosen to leave the Flower Sect and join the Opposing Force, the Tianming Sect, for the sake of a man.

Seven days ago,

with the appearance of the Heavenly Dao Gold Ranking,

Azure Fairy and Hua Fairy, who had been in seclusion for many years, were both awakened and emerged from seclusion.

That day happened to be when Acting Sect Leader Hua Jin had forcefully demanded that the elders approve her proposal.

She wanted to bring the Six-star Dou Venerate "Demonic Flower Evil Lord" into a life-or-death battle with Yun Yun, with the victor becoming Flower Sect Leader... Her words also implied that Yun Yun's Dou Qi, which Granny Hua had left within her body, would be stripped away.

After learning everything,

Azure Fairy and Hua Fairy immediately flew into a rage.

They harshly berated the group of Dou Venerate elders and Acting Sect Leader Hua Jin.

The two of them had never imagined that after merely spending several years in seclusion without concerning themselves with sect affairs, Acting Sect Leader Hua Jin would fall in love with the Six-star Dou Venerate expert "Demonic Flower Evil Lord" from the Opposing Force, the Tianming Sect, while the sect elders had failed to stop her.

To Azure Fairy and Hua Fairy,

the Tianming Sect had coveted the Flower Sect for more than a day or two.

If not for the support of the two of them, the Intermediate Half-Saints serving as Supreme Elders of the Flower Sect, it would have long since been devoured by the Tianming Sect, whose overall strength far surpassed the Flower Sect and which possessed High-level Half-Saint combat power.

Now,

because of her selfish desires and jealousy toward Yun Yun,

Hua Jin had not only fallen in love and cooperated with an expert from the Tianming Sect, but had also tried to kill the successor chosen by Former Sect Leader Hua Yu.

She was truly unworthy of continuing as Acting Sect Leader.

Thus,

Azure Fairy and Hua Fairy immediately stripped Hua Jin of her position as Acting Sect Leader and demanded that she sever ties with Demonic Flower Evil Lord at once and never contact him again.

Although Hua Jin was extremely unwilling to accept the orders of the two Supreme Elders, Azure Fairy and Hua Fairy,

she was unable to resist. In the end, she agreed on the surface, then vanished from the sect the next day, her whereabouts unknown.

At first, everyone believed Hua Jin had been unable to accept losing her position as Acting Sect Leader for a time, so she had gone somewhere uninhabited to calm down.

But soon,

everyone was proven wrong.

A sect disciple had discovered Hua Jin together with Demonic Flower Evil Lord in the Tianming Sect's territory, and the Tianming Sect's disciples even addressed Hua Jin as an elder!

Clearly, Hua Jin's final choice had been to join the Tianming Sect.

Rather than sever ties with Demonic Flower Evil Lord.

Returning to the present,

Azure Fairy waved her hand. "Enough, enough. Let's not mention those unpleasant matters today. Everyone should think more about how the sect should operate from now on..."

At the same time,

Central Continent, Starfall Pavilion.

Xiao Yan, who was at the Two-star Dou Venerate Realm,

gazed at the familiar name "Yun Yun" on the Heavenly Dao Gold Ranking.

A graceful figure in blue and countless warm memories subconsciously surfaced in his mind.

There was Yun Zhi in the cave in the Monster Beast Mountain Range, Yun Zhi who had let him leave in the Tagor Desert, and Yun Yun in the rear mountains of the Misty Cloud Sect, who had embraced him in farewell...

"One-star Dou Venerate!" Xiao Yan murmured subconsciously. "I never thought Yun Yun would become Flower Sect Leader and even obtain Former Sect Leader Granny Hua's Dou Qi Inheritance..."

Thinking of how he had endured countless hardships over the years and survived countless brushes with death before barely breaking through to the Two-star Dou Venerate Realm,

Xiao Yan couldn't help clicking his tongue. Yun Yun's luck truly made him incredibly envious.

Beside Xiao Yan,

Yao Chen, who was at the High-level Half-Saint Realm,

was also gazing at the name "Azure Fairy" on the Heavenly Dao Gold Ranking, lost in memories of the past...

Seeing this scene,

Feng Xian, the "Venerable Wind," couldn't help shaking his head.

As expected of master and disciple, their habit of leaving romantic entanglements everywhere without taking responsibility had truly been carved from the same mold.

Central Continent, Tianming Sect.

Hua Jin, who had already betrayed the Flower Sect, was currently lying in her lover Demonic Flower Evil Lord's arms.

After seeing the Heavenly Dao Gold Ranking's description and rewards for the Flower Sect, her eyes filled with hatred. "Yun Yun, don't get complacent. One day, I'll kill you and take back everything that should have belonged to me."

"Whether it's that old woman's Dou Qi or the position of Flower Sect Leader."

"Demon Lad, you have to help me when the time comes..."

Hearing Hua Jin's voice from his arms,

a trace of speechlessness flashed through the eyes of Demonic Flower Evil Lord, who was at the Six-star Dou Venerate Realm.

Good grief, Hua Jin. You've already joined the Tianming Sect, yet you're still thinking about going back to inherit the position of Flower Sect Leader. That's truly far-fetched.

Although the Tianming Sect had the High-level Half-Saint Nether Old Demon guarding it, and he would soon break through to the Late-stage One-star Dou Saint or even higher under the Heavenly Dao Blessing,

it was clearly unrealistic to make an enemy of the Flower Sect, which had two One-star Dou Saints guarding it and a protective formation capable of withstanding attacks from a Two-star Dou Saint, for the sake of an insignificant Four-star Dou Venerate like Hua Jin.

The Tianming Sect had indeed wanted to swallow up the Flower Sect before.

But they weren't fools.

Given the Flower Sect's current situation, a conflict between the two great sects would only leave both sides crippled.

Therefore, unless the Tianming Sect had an overwhelming advantage in the future, it absolutely would not start a war with the Flower Sect.

Although this was what he truly thought,

he had yet to grow tired of Hua Jin, and Demonic Flower Evil Lord also knew that a Four-star Dou Venerate was useful to the Tianming Sect.

Thus, he still nodded with an evil smile and echoed her words. "Don't worry, Hua Jin. My Tianming Sect's overall strength is already greater than the Flower Sect's, and we'll soon receive the Heavenly Dao Gold Ranking's blessing as well... One day, I'll fulfill your wish."

Anyone with discernment knew that Demonic Flower Evil Lord was merely painting a pretty picture.

But to love-struck Hua Jin, his words moved her beyond measure.

Meanwhile,

above the Sect Leader Hall of the Tianming Sect,

several figures radiating powerful auras stood in the air.

Following the announcement of the Flower Sect's ranking rewards, the strongest expert in the Tianming Sect, the High-level Half-Saint "Nether Old Demon," Youyou, said, "If not for the appearance of the Heavenly Dao Gold Ranking, how could those two old guys from the Flower Sect have broken through to the Dou Saint Realm before this old man?"

Hearing this,

the Tianming Sect Leader beside him,

Nether Son, who was at the Peak Nine-Revolutions Dou Venerate Realm,

immediately picked up the conversation. "The Azure and Hua Fairies only managed to move ahead of Ancestor because they received the Heavenly Dao Blessing!"

"My Tianming Sect's overall strength is greater than the Flower Sect's. The higher our ranking, the richer the rewards should be. Ancestor only needs to wait patiently, and he'll be able to enter the Late-stage One-star Dou Saint Realm, or even higher..."

At this point,

Nether Son seemed to think of something.

His tone suddenly faltered, and his face filled with disappointment. "Unfortunately, I've tried to break through to the Half-Saint Realm these past few days but failed. Judging from the rewards received by the two Listed Sects before us, the Tianming Sect is destined to fall behind the Flower Sect in terms of the number of Dou Saints."

"That isn't your fault!"

Upon hearing this, Nether Old Demon patted Nether Son's shoulder and said earnestly, "It can only be said that no one expected the Heavenly Dao Gold Ranking to appear!"

"Besides..."

"Nether Son, you're not entirely without a chance. Under the Heavenly Dao Gold Ranking's blessing, you might advance directly to the Dou Saint Realm."

"It's still too early to draw a conclusion."
