Chapter 1088: Came to a Conclusion
Elder Su frowned again. Elder Yuan’s words made him feel a little uncomfortable. Golden Pill Sect established itself on its superior medical skills and medicine. It had always been upright in its practices, so plotting and scheming went against the sect’s nature. But since the Yuan family had lived in Qianzhong Ridge for so many years, it was inevitable for them to start thinking in and resorting to such ways. It was all about survival here after all.
Although Su Yizhi was a decent person, he was not pedantic. He also knew that there were some things in this world that could not be solved openly and honestly. With various sects scheming against each other for the treasure land, they would do whatever it took to come out tops. As long as it was not against the laws of nature, he would just pretend that he did not hear it.
Ling Chuxi did not argue or say much either. Her thoughts were running much deeper than Su Yifinger and the others’. If Golden Pill Sect’s enemies were indeed Senior Cang Yuan’s former enemy, then it was not something Golden Pill Sect would be able to contend with, not by revealing their full force all at once. The more Golden Pill Sect hid from their enemies, the more chances they had to fight the enemy. Even if they still couldn’t defeat them, they at least wouldn’t be annihilated like a thousand years ago—some of their bloodlines could still be preserved.
Of course, the Zhang family and the descendants of these sects had most likely been locked on by the other party. However, since the other party’s target was the Cang Yuan Sword, they would not invest too much energy in them. Just as the sword spirit said, the true enemy had lived against the heavens for more than ten thousand years. But no matter how strong he was, there was a limit to his strength. He would definitely have a weakness. Otherwise, he would not have used his divine consciousness to probe around for so long and still not be able to discover the Cang Yuan Sword spirit. As long as they were more prepared, they would have more confidence.
“That’s good. The matter is settled. I will announce this news to them tomorrow,” said Elder Yuan.
“In that case, I think we don’t need to act in the name of the Zhang family anymore,” said Zhang Shizhao. Since Golden Pill Sect had already returned, he was embarrassed to give out orders to the descendants as the Zhang head.
“I think the pseudonym of the sect should be Sword Heart Gang,” said Su Yizhi. Of course, he didn’t want the dignified sect descendants to live under someone else’s roof as a servant. Sword Heart Gang would be similar to a branch of Golden Pill Sect and thus, being under it would be equivalent to returning to the sect.
“Okay, then it’s settled,” said Elder Yuan excitedly.
“Oh right, Elder Yuan, tell them that as long as they perform well, they can cultivate in the sect’s spiritual treasure land for a period of time as a reward.” Ling Chuxi was inspired by the treasure lands of Flowing Clouds Sect and Celestial Sect, and thus had been thinking of finding a place with abundant spiritual energy in the sea of flowers to set up a forbidden cultivation area to motivate her disciples.
“That’s a good idea. This way, no one will be lazy anymore.” Elder Yuan’s eyes lit up as he nodded.
After settling this matter, Zhang Shizhao personally led Ling Chuxi and the others to the guest rooms to rest.
It was late at night, and the crescent moon shone down on with a gentle moonlight. In the elegant small courtyard, the osmanthus flowers gave off a faint fragrance. But Ling Chuxi had been replaying her speculations in her head and couldn’t fall asleep.
“Are you still awake?” Huangfu Qingjue’s familiar voice came from the other side of the door.
After breaking the seal and returning to his original appearance, the two of them were naturally embarrassed to be in the same room again.
