Yun Shan's Yue Buqun Template

Chapter 187 The Yue Buqun Template of Yun Shan Seeing that Yun Shan was willing to talk, Xiao Lin was naturally willing to listen as well.

It's quite natural that Xiao Lin would be interested in the secrets of the Misty Cloud Sect that weren't mentioned in the Original Work.

After all these years, Xiao Lin has long since abandoned the Original Work's biased view of the Misty Cloud Sect.

It can be said that Xiao Lin still has a lot of goodwill towards the Misty Cloud Sect.

Of course, this includes Yun Shan as well.

Therefore, if possible, he naturally did not want Misty Cloud Sect and Yun Shan to follow the old path of the Original Work.

"My Misty Cloud Sect has existed for over 600 years since it was founded by Ancestor Yun Potian. I am the eighth sect leader in this generation!"

However, since more than three hundred years ago, my Misty Cloud Sect has gradually declined.

At this point, a touch of sadness appeared on Yun Shan's face.

"Is it the man-made disaster that you just mentioned, the one that happened more than 300 years ago, right, Sect Master Yun Shan?"

At this opportune moment, Xiao Lin spoke up and asked.

"Yes."

When Xiao Lin asked, Yun Shan nodded.

Then he spoke again.

"Just over three hundred years ago, during the final years of the reign of the third sect leader of my Misty Cloud Sect, we had two exceptionally outstanding predecessors who were both qualified to inherit the position of the fourth sect leader. However—"

"Crunch"

At this point, Yun Shan paused again, and his fists clenched involuntarily.

At the same time, Xiao Lin seemed to smell a hint of melodrama!

As expected, Yun Shan's next words confirmed his guess once again.

"After those two outstanding seniors competed for the position of the fourth-generation sect leader, one of them lost, but the defeated senior was not willing to accept it."

No!

He can no longer be called a senior of the Misty Cloud Sect; he should be called a traitor and a sinner!

It was precisely because of him that my Misty Cloud Sect declined!

Xiao Lin detected a hint of hatred in Yun Shan's words!

Of course, no one would have a good impression of a traitor.

Moreover, this was a traitor who caused the decline of the entire sect's power.

However, normally speaking, it would not be easy for a traitor who lost the battle for the position of sect leader to bring down the Misty Cloud Sect at its peak.

There must be more to this story than meets the eye.

After all, in the end, all the inheritances of the Misty Cloud Sect above the Earth Rank fell into the hands of the Heavenly Serpent Imperial Family!

Therefore, Xiao Lin reasonably guessed that this traitor of the Misty Cloud Sect must have colluded with the Heavenly Serpent Imperial Family, which led to the decline of the Misty Cloud Sect to this day.

After talking about the traitor, Yun Shan took a long time to calm down before finally regaining his composure.

"I suppose you've already guessed what happened next, Xiao Lin? That's right, the traitor who lost the battle for the fourth generation of Misty Cloud Sect Master colluded with outsiders to launch a surprise attack on my Misty Cloud Sect!"

As for who those outsiders were, my Misty Cloud Sect didn't know until now.

But judging from your description, Xiao Lin, that group of people is very likely the Heavenly Serpent Imperial Family.

Damn it!

The outcome of that Misty Cloud Sect Rebellion was that most of my Misty Cloud Sect's ancestors died in battle, including the third-generation sect leader and the soon-to-be-in-command fourth-generation sect leader.

At the same time, because of that traitor, all of my Misty Cloud Sect's Cultivation Method and Dou Technique above the Earth Rank have been lost!

Although my Misty Cloud Sect eventually repelled that group and killed the traitor, after that, the strength of my Misty Cloud Sect was reduced to less than one-tenth of its original strength.

Even the newly appointed fourth-generation sect leader was chosen from among the few within the Misty Cloud Sect, which was in dire need of rebuilding.

After recounting all the secrets of the Misty Cloud Sect in one breath, Yun Shan began to sigh repeatedly.

He bore the hope of reviving the Misty Cloud Sect, and naturally abhorred the things that had happened to the Misty Cloud Sect.

It was only then that Xiao Lin learned that the Misty Cloud Sect had actually suffered such a severe disaster!

It has been able to continue to this day even after such a disaster.

This shows that at its peak, the Misty Cloud Sect was undoubtedly a behemoth in the Northwest Continent.

This explains why the Heavenly Serpent Imperial Family, despite already possessing Earth Tier Cultivation Method and Dou Technique, still coveted the Misty Cloud Sect's heritage.

As for how that traitor from the Misty Cloud Sect colluded with the Heavenly Serpent Imperial Family, no one knows for sure now.

But that doesn't matter anymore.

The decline of the Misty Cloud Sect was ultimately caused by that traitor.

"So the Misty Cloud Sect has been through so much! Sect Master Yun Shan, it seems you've had a tough time too!"

At this moment, Xiao Lin suddenly realized that Yun Shan seemed to have taken a template from Yue Buqun in The Smiling, Proud Wanderer!

Both sects suffer internal strife and decline, and both bear the heavy responsibility of reviving their sects. In the early stages, he is a refined and elegant gentleman, but later he turns evil and becomes the enemy of the protagonist.

This flavor is just perfect!

"Ah, it's not a matter of hardship or not; it's my responsibility as the Misty Cloud Sect Master! If it weren't for the internal strife that plagued our Misty Cloud Sect more than 300 years ago, leaving everything in ruins, how could the tiny Jia Ma Empire have dared to establish itself within the sphere of influence of our Misty Cloud Sect!"

Just when Xiao Lin thought he had learned enough, Yun Shan dropped another bombshell.

Because the Xiao Household was also located within the territory of the Jia Ma Empire, he naturally knew that the Jia Ma Empire had been established for approximately 300 years.

This period of time indeed coincided with the decline of the Misty Cloud Sect.

He knew it! The Misty Cloud Sect was a behemoth back then. What gave the Jia Ma Empire the audacity to include the entire Misty Cloud Sect when it was founded?

Now, everything makes sense.

At the time when the Misty Cloud Sect was at its weakest, the Gama Imperial Family was established.

At that time, the Misty Cloud Sect was so weak that it was powerless to stop the Gama Imperial Family.

At the same time, there is also a strong possibility that the Misty Cloud Sect was too weak at that time, which meant that it was not only powerless to stop the establishment of the Gama Imperial Family, but also had to choose to actively join forces with the Jia Ma Empire!

This would be mutually beneficial for both parties.

The Misty Cloud Sect can use this opportunity to gradually overcome its weakness and prepare for a future revival.

The Jia Ma Empire can also rely on the Misty Cloud Sect's earlier prestige to intimidate all sides, and can also face challenges from all sides together with the Misty Cloud Sect.

At this moment, the fog of history was slowly lifted before Xiao Lin's eyes.

"I never imagined that there was such a relationship between the Jia Ma Empire and the Misty Cloud Sect!"

Xiao Lin nodded and spoke.

Clearly, Yun Shan also realized that Xiao Lin had guessed the relationship between the Misty Cloud Sect and the Jia Ma Empire.

Although Yun Shan was somewhat displeased with the Jia Ma Empire, he knew in his heart that for the Misty Cloud Sect at that time, this was the best choice.

Therefore, even today, although there are occasional frictions between the Misty Cloud Sect and the Gama Imperial Family, they still generally restrain each other.

Because they had been through thick and thin together.
