How Could He Just Kill Whoever He Wanted?!

Green Luo Continent, Zi Yue Valley.

Inside a palace.

The Zi Yue Valley Master, dressed in a deep purple palace gown, sat at the head of the table, her gentle eyes looking at the woman bowing before her.

"Disciple Cheng Yanhui greets Master."

The woman had sharp features, knelt upright, and spoke quite crisply.

She was born into a family of cultivators in the Green Luo Continent.

Although there are several Path Opening cultivators in the clan, there has never been True Person to oversee things, and for generations, people have been thinking about moving up the ranks.

Cheng Yanhui was the most promising descendant of the clan.

In order to replenish her Dao Foundation, the Cheng Family had previously paid a considerable "price" to obtain an opportunity for her to enter the [Dao-Nurturing Pool].

She certainly lived up to expectations.

At this Teaching Ceremony in Zi Yue Valley.

She immediately grasped the key to a lunar-attribute technique and subsequently defeated several of her peers in sparring sessions.

Such performance finally prompted Zi Yue Valley Master the initiative to accept disciples.

"Get up."

The Zi Yue Valley Master smiled and raised his hand, handing her a personal inheritance token, and softly instructed her:

"From now on, cultivate diligently and do not waste this talent."

"Disciple will humbly obey Master's Imperial Edict!"

Cheng Yanhui accepted the waist token with both hands and solemnly agreed.

Immediately, countless congratulatory voices rang out from all around.

She turned around and returned the greetings to each of the elders, though she couldn't quite suppress the joy in her eyes.

From now on, whenever someone mentions Cheng Yanhui, they should think twice!

But before she could be happy for long, she sensed that something was off about the atmosphere around her.

The congratulatory voices gradually faded away.

Several elders walked past her, all looking towards the palace gate.

'What's going on...?'

Cheng Yanhui around and saw a woman in a moon-white Daoist Robe standing there, holding a dossier, with a hint of anger in her eyes.

Heguang True Cultivator?!

She was startled and instinctively looked at her new master.

"Yanhui, come behind me first."

The Zi Yue Valley Master frowned slightly, saw the elders off, and then looked towards the door:

"Heguang, come in and talk to me."

Even if it's urgent, it doesn't warrant breaking the rules and losing your composure in front of your disciples.

Heguang True Cultivator entered the hall, glanced at Cheng Yanhui, and asked:

"You've already become an apprentice?"

The Zi Yue Valley Master nodded and said, "What is it you want to say?"

Only then was Heguang True Cultivator relieved.

The master-disciple contract in Zi Yue Valley is extraordinary.

Now that the agreement has been made, the other party is truly one of our own.

Important matters within the sect are also subject to certain restrictions, so there's no need to avoid discussing them anymore.

She immediately placed the file on the table and coldly shouted:

"What else could it be? Ye Li has really gone too far!"

"Ye Li?"

The Zi Yue Valley Master looked slightly puzzled:

"Didn't he already know when to stop?"

"That was specially made for us to see!"

Heguang True Cultivator unfolded the file and said through gritted teeth:

He has secretly come to the Green Luo Continent!

"Moreover, they destroyed Returning Balance Academy as soon as they arrived, and Perfected Mingzhang was beheaded in public. None of the alliance Manager who took over the case survived!"

"In addition, he declared in front of everyone that from now on, he would take over Green Luo Continent!"

"..."

Cheng Yanhui's grip on the waist token tightened slightly.

Returning Balance Academy?

A while ago, she was thinking that once she achieved success in her cultivation, she would go back and thank the person who had worked so hard to obtain this opportunity.

It's gone now?!

The Zi Yue Valley Master's expression also turned cold:

Is this true?

"Of course it's true!"

Heguang True Cultivator tapped his finger on the dossier, producing a dull sound:

"So many cultivators present heard it, how could it be false?"

The Zi Yue Valley Master took the dossier, carefully examined it, and her beautiful eyes gradually turned cold.

She was certainly aware of the reputation of Dao-Nurturing Pool.

Among her disciples, several had received nurturing from there before becoming her disciples.

She was not entirely unaware of the many rumors surrounding it.

However, since everyone benefited, and the academy had indeed done a lot for the Alliance Association, she had tacitly approved of it until now.

Now that Ye Li has arrived, he just killed the person?!

Who will dispose of Dao-Nurturing Pool in the future is another matter.

What she had previously tacitly approved of was suddenly overturned by a Palace Heir from another continent. How was she supposed to face this?

Not to mention.

The moment Heguang True Cultivator sent a letter on behalf of the Green Luo Continent, the other party acted in this manner.

Does he think he can completely ignore what the Green Luo Continent Alliance Association says?!

"... What was the reaction from the Jade Dais Palace?"

The Zi Yue Valley Master put down the scroll and asked in a deep voice.

Heguang True Cultivator sneered:

What other reaction is possible?

"Qin Fa has no shame whatsoever, and that Palace Master Yuchen has been deliberately causing his death; it's clear he doesn't intend to care!"

"I'm not going to get involved anymore..."

The Zi Yue Valley Master repeated it softly, his brows furrowing even more deeply.

After a moment's thought, she sighed softly, looked at the disciples behind her, and casually asked:

"Yanhui, now that you've entered the sect, why don't you tell me your thoughts?"

Cheng Yanhui's body stiffened slightly.

She was horrified by what she had just heard.

Perfected Mingzhang was someone she couldn't even meet in person in the past.

He was actually killed by a peer who had recently gained fame!

But meeting her master's somewhat fiery gaze, she quickly composed herself and bowed, saying:

"This disciple believes that this person has indeed gone too far."

"If it's just about investigating a case, why bring up taking over Green Luo Continent?"

"Everyone knows that the Dao Lineage currently in charge of affairs within the continent is our Zi Yue Valley."

"He didn't inform his master, nor did he consult with him; he simply wanted to take his place..."

She raised her head, her tone becoming increasingly firm:

Anyone who hears this should understand who he's targeting.

"From now on, if any family has any issues, should they listen to Zi Yue Valley, or should they first consult Supreme Clarity Palace?"

These words weren't entirely just to agree with what their master said.

She had just become a disciple of the Valley Master, and this was precisely the time when she needed to rely on her status.

If Zi Yue Valley loses its prestige at this moment, what benefit will she and the Cheng Family gain?

The Zi Yue Valley Master slowly nodded:

"Not bad, it's quite remarkable that you could think of these things."

Cheng Yanhui felt a little relieved and lowered her gaze again.

Heguang True Cultivator then sneered:

Even the newly initiated disciples can see it clearly, but Jade Dais Palace is still pretending to be confused.

Even if Ye Li becomes True Lord, what does it have to do with them?

"This Palace Master Yuchen is truly a spineless coward."

"When they see a particularly talented person, they feel like kneeling down and begging to be their dog!"

The Zi Yue Valley Master breathed a sigh of relief:

"Don't rush, let me think about it."

The relevant letters have been sent out.

If they remain inactive now that Ye Li has responded in this way, all cultivators in the world will only think that Zi Yue Valley's advice was a joke.

The Zi Yue's reputation, built up over millions of years... must not be ruined in her hands!

Just then.

A Manager arrived outside the hall, bowed, and reported:

"Valley Master, Perfected Chongyue requests an audience, saying he has urgent business to discuss."

"Chongyue? Let him in."

Before long, a burly man dressed in a brown robe strode into the hall.

Perfected Chongyue bowed respectfully and then began to speak about the Returning Balance Academy.

But before he could finish speaking...

Heguang True Cultivator pointed to the files on the table and sneered:

"You've come at the right time; we were just discussing this matter."

"I see... then I'll be frank."

Perfected Chongyue was initially surprised, then said in a deep voice:

"Ye Li's current intention is clearly to investigate and prosecute everyone involved in the Dao-Nurturing Pool!"

"But over the years, which Dao Lineage hasn't had some disciples who have gone there?"

"Not only does our Mountain-Subduing Sect have them, but your Guigu Valley has quite a few as well!"

"Does he intend to follow those lists and thoroughly investigate and punish all the disciples from each sect? Where would that leave the reputation of our Dao Lineage! Mountain Gate might as well rename our sect as Ye Li's backyard garden!"

"This is ridiculous!!"

Heguang True Cultivator immediately shouted coldly:

"What's wrong with the disciples having received this opportunity to cultivate?"

"At this rate of investigation, how can Green Luo Continent possibly have a peaceful life?!"

Chongyue nodded and said:

"Therefore, this matter cannot be delayed any longer."

"I would like to request that your esteemed sect send a Late Fortune-Mastery - True Person to summon Ye Li."

"The complete files and roster of the Returning Balance Academy should also be returned to the Green Luo Continent Alliance."

"Who should be investigated and who should be punished needs to be discussed and agreed upon by all parties! He can't just kill whoever he wants based on his own eyes!"
