Chaos Heavenly Emperor Technique

Chapter 625: Chapter 625: Concern Leads to Chaos! (3 updates)

”A joke, a minor prince is nothing significant, but at such a sensitive period, Tianyang Prince Jing even doesn’t hesitate to send troops to the east, at this critical juncture, with Ling Feng still so brutally harming Nangong Yin, if it were to anger the Tianyang Royal Family, and war breaks out between the two countries, could you bear the consequences?”

Elder Liu said coldly, ”In my opinion, we should tie up Ling Feng and hand him over to the envoy of the Tianyang Empire, to be dealt with by their nation! If this could appease King Jing’s rage, it would also count as the kid atoning for his crimes.”

”Impossible!”

Wen Tingguang glared furiously, grinding his teeth as he spoke, ”If our Cangqiong Sect truly acted in such a manner, how would the people of the world view us? The National Guardian Divine Sect of the Sky White Empire would become a puppet of the Tianyang Empire?”

”Elder Wen, you speak utter nonsense! I am only considering the bigger picture!”

”The bigger picture? I think you are just seeking personal revenge!”

”A joke, I am utterly loyal to the Sect Leader and to His Imperial Majesty the Emperor, where would I have personal interests?”

”Liu! Hong! Zhang!”

”Wen! Ting! Guang!”

”Enough!”

Just as the two factions were arguing furiously, Yue Zhonglian let out a clear whistle, and at once, Wen Tingguang and Liu Hongzhang both backed away, bowing towards Yue Zhonglian and said with heads lowered, ”Sect Leader, forgive us!”

”As Elders, in front of the other Elders, to quarrel like fishwives in the street, what kind of decorum is that!”

Yue Zhonglian snorted lightly and slowly said, ”This morning, our sect has already visited the palace for an audience, and His Majesty the Emperor has entrusted the entire matter to the Cangqiong Sect to handle, may I ask, how do you interpret the Imperial will?”

”This...”

A group of Elders, silently without a word.

Siding with the Emperor is like accompanying a tiger, the matter was originally entrusted to the Cangqiong Sect to handle, but then there was the incident of Ling Feng castrating Nangong Yin’s ”little brother,” making it difficult to hand him over directly to the Tianyang Empire.

Of course, even if Ling Feng hadn’t intervened, the fact that Nangong Yin had the audacity to attempt to molest a female disciple of the Cangqiong Sect after being rescued, if the issue wasn’t handled properly, the Cangqiong Sect’s reputation would be completely ruined, and the Tianyang Empire would surely intensify their actions.

”The whole story, Lan’er has already told me in detail.”

Yue Zhonglian slowly stood up and walked out from his seat, passing by the Elders, he spoke slowly, ”Ling Feng, did nothing wrong!”

”This...” Liu Hongzhang’s expression froze, and he then clenched his teeth, as even Yue Zhonglian had spoken, he had nothing more to say.

”Sect Leader has shown great wisdom!” Wen Tingguang’s eyes lit up with joy.

Yue Zhonglian stood with his hands behind his back, speaking indifferently, ”Elder Wen, please do me the favor and invite our young friend Ling Feng here.”

”Sect Leader, Ling Feng is still young, involving him in this matter, I’m afraid could be inappropriate?” Wen Tingguang said with some concern.

”According to Lan’er, Ling Feng made a decisive decision, took resolute action, remained calm amidst change, and immediately had Lan’er escort Nangong Yin back to the Cangqiong Sect, showing that this kid is not only highly skilled in medicine but also a person of exceptional strategy and intelligence.”

Yue Zhonglian smiled faintly, ”I think, this kid must already have a solution in mind.”

”I understand.”

Wen Tingguang nodded, then bowed to Yue Zhonglian, ”Then I will go and handle this immediately.”

”Go ahead.” Yue Zhonglian returned to his seat, his gaze turning toward the Elders, he took a deep breath and slowly said, ”Everyone, you may all disperse as well, Elder Liu, dispatch some people to prepare to receive the envoys from the Tianyang Empire.”

”Subordinate obeys the order!”

Liu Hongzhang hurried forward to respond.

Before long, all the elders had left the hall, and only then did Yue Zhonglian reveal a hint of exhaustion, covering his mouth with a silk handkerchief to cough lightly. When he spread it open, the handkerchief was riddled with streaks of blood.

Even though Ling Feng had repeatedly cautioned not to overwork himself, how could he avoid it during such a troubled autumn...

”If it weren’t for the great battle with the Demon Clan back then, which heavily damaged our Sky White Empire, how would we now be under the thumb of the Tianyang Empire?”

Yue Zhonglian sighed lightly. After all, a weak country has no diplomacy!

...

Outside the study, Yue Yunlan and Qiaoqiao craned their necks from a distance. Suddenly, Qiaoqiao pointed at a gray-robed old man, giggling, ”Miss, Elder Wen has come out!”

Yue Yunlan’s beautiful eyes flashed, and she quickly leaped over, calling from afar, ”Yun Lan has seen Uncle Wen.”

”Miss Lan!”

Wen Tingguang, upon seeing Yue Yunlan appear, showed no surprise. Instead, he stroked his beard and laughed heartily, ”Looking for me to find out how the Sect Leader dealt with kid Ling Feng?”

”Yes.” Yue Yunlan bit her silver teeth, ”I think I have made it very clear to father. It was all because Nangong Yin wanted to plot against Senior Sister Fang; Young Master Ling only...”

”Ah, don’t say anymore. The Tianyang Empire is pressing us so hard, the Sect Leader has no choice.” Wen Tingguang feigned a look of utter disappointment and sighed, ”There you have it, the Sect Leader has asked me to capture that kid Ling Feng to await his fate.”

”What?” Yue Yunlan immediately furrowed her brows, ”How can this be? No, I must go and debate this with father! Moreover, Young Master Ling even... even saved his life!”

”Exactly, exactly!” Qiaoqiao nodded vehemently, ”Anyway, I think Young Master Ling did nothing wrong!”

”It’s no use, once the Sect Leader decides something, when has it ever been changed.” Wen Tingguang saw Yue Yunlan’s anxious look and secretly chuckled, but he kept a straight face and said, ”Miss Lan, you might as well go and bid farewell to kid Ling Feng now, who knows if the next time you see him will be on the execution ground.”

”That’s not possible!” Yue Yunlan quickly blocked Wen Tingguang’s path, ”Uncle Wen, I won’t let you capture Young Master Ling!”

”Hahahaha...” Wen Tingguang couldn’t help laughing out loud when he saw Yue Yunlan was so anxious her tears were about to fall, ”Miss Lan, your little schemes are plainly obvious, aren’t they?”

”What... what are you talking about?” Yue Yunlan bit her lip.

”The preoccupied are often chaotic; otherwise, with your cleverness, how could you not see that I am teasing you?” Wen Tingguang stroked his beard and chuckled, ”Rest assured, Miss Lan. The Sect Leader is not that muddled. Not only does he not blame Ling Feng, but he also greatly appreciates that kid.”

”Really?” Yue Yunlan finally let out a sigh of relief, furrowed her brows, and glared fiercely at Wen Tingguang, ”Uncle Wen, how could you tease Yun Lan like this!”

”Hahaha, I was just lightening the mood!” Wen Tingguang laughed heartily, ”I see that the Sect Leader is like a father-in-law favoring his son-in-law, ever more pleased as he looks on.”

”Uncle Wen... what nonsense are you spouting!”

Yue Yunlan’s cheeks turned red with embarrassment, she glared at Wen Tingguang, then quickly pulled Qiaoqiao and ran off as if fleeing.

”Miss Lan’s feelings are all too transparent, but that kid...”

Wen Tingguang recalled the scene when Yue Yunlan bid farewell to Ling Feng. That kid, not understanding a thing!

”Oh well, I’d better send the brat a message first.”

Wen Tingguang shook his head and smiled. Speaking of which, he hadn’t seen that kid for quite a while.
