Nine Dragons Saint Ancestor

Chapter 326: 326 Luoyi Sect

”Hmph, Sect Master Yu Shu really took in a good disciple, let’s wait and see!”

Seeing that there was no way to regain the upper hand at this scene, and since he couldn’t start a fight in the Moon Embracing Hall, Li Feng could only swallow his anger, waiting for a future opportunity to settle the score.

However, after Li Feng’s gaze made a round over Yun Xiao, confidence welled up in him once again. After all, this youngster only had the cultivation of the Meridian Rushing Realm Late Stage.

That unexpected trick Yun Xiao had just used must have been a surprise tactic to deal with Li Yue, who was at the Meridian Union Realm, and that’s why he suffered such a loss. If it were a head-on fight, Li Feng believed his disciple could certainly crush Yun Xiao like a dry twig.

The farce ended with Li Feng and Li Yue leaving with disheveled appearances, while Yun Xiao, the person involved, did not pay any attention to Li Yue’s glare as if wishing to devour him.

In Yun Xiao’s eyes, it was this guy who had offered his face to be hit. If Yun Xiao did not oblige, it would truly be letting down the earnestness of this master and disciple.

Seeing Yun Xiao’s unconcerned demeanor and then looking at Li Yue with almost unsteady breath from anger, it became clear who was superior. The people in the hall could not help but regard Yun Xiao with even higher esteem.

”Luoyi Sect, Sect Leader Jia Yi, has arrived!”

While everyone’s gaze was continuously moving between Yun Xiao and Li Yue, the ceremonial officer at the entrance of the main hall suddenly shouted, and everyone’s eyes lit up as two graceful figures stepped into the hall.

Among the three major sects of the Xuanyue Empire revered by many, the encounters with Jade Pot Sect and Qingshan Sect had already been witnessed. And now, the two women entering the hall belonged to Luoyi Sect, the third of these major sects.

Luoyi Sect carried itself in a low-key manner, not vying with other sects for power. It was rumored that this sect only took in female disciples, making some of the young men who wished to join sigh with loss.

Perhaps it was for this reason that Luoyi Sect carried a sense of detachment from worldly strife, and no one would lightly offend such a sect. Even Li Feng, Sect Master of Qingshan Sect, nodded in greeting to Sect Leader Jia Yi.

Perhaps you would only know the true power of this unassuming sect on the surface when you provoked Luoyi Sect.

Once, a family that thought highly of its own strength lusted after a female disciple of Luoyi Sect and attempted to use force to take her. In the end, their entire family was annihilated by Luoyi Sect.

After this incident, all the families and sects of the Xuanyue Empire no longer underestimated this all-female sect. So, when the two women entered the hall, they were greeted with smiles containing goodwill.

”Sect Master Yu Shu, long time no see!”

Ignoring the nod from Sect Master Qingshan, Sect Leader Jia Yi walked straight to Sect Master Yu Shu to greet him, which further soured Li Feng’s mood.

But it was their freedom to greet whomever they wished, and even though Li Feng was annoyed, he couldn’t intervene with verbal protests, only watching with a darkened face as Yu Shu engaged in a low-voiced, jovial chat with Jia Yi, unable to interject a word.

After exchanging pleasantries, Jia Yi’s gaze suddenly moved from Yu Shu to Yun Xiao, and she said with a laugh, ”This young man must be the first disciple Sect Master Yu Shu has taken in. Indeed, he is a dragon among men with an exceptional aura!”

For some reason, although the words from the Sect Leader of Luoyi Sect might not have been sincere, they warmed Yun Xiao’s ears far more than any flattery from the likes of Xuan Jiuding or Li Yue.

”Hanyi, come over here and get acquainted with your Junior Brother Yun Xiao!”

Just as Yun Xiao was about to humbly deflect, Jia Yi called over her disciple, pushing the slightly uneasy-looking young woman to the front.

”Ha ha, Yun Xiao, you must not underestimate your Senior Sister Hanyi. At such a young age, I’m afraid she is unmatched within the younger generation of our Jade Pot Sect!”

Yu Shu’s words contained a modest undertone. According to Yun Xiao’s sensing, this ”Hanyi” named Senior Sister probably had the cultivation of the Mid Stage of Meridian Union Realm at most. To say she was more formidable than Mo Qing from the Jade Pot Sect was not necessarily true.

”Junior Brother Yun Xiao, hello, I am Liu Hanyi!”

Hearing the continuous words from her teacher and Yu Shu, Liu Hanyi seemed to feel a bit embarrassed, but still generously reached out her hand. Watching this scene, the onlookers pondered for a moment, and many shifted their gazes toward Li Yue, the talented youth from Qingshan Sect.

Naturally, Yun Xiao did not think Liu Hanyi would want to test him like Li Yue did. He too reached out and held her slightly cool jade-like hand for a moment, feeling as comforting and enjoyable as warm jade in his hand.

Liu Hanyi seemingly had little experience with skin-to-skin contact with men, so the moment her jade-like hand touched Yun Xiao’s skin, her body slightly trembled, and a faint blush crept onto her face, she hastily withdrew her right hand.

The sudden sensation left Yun Xiao feeling somewhat at a loss, but the next moment, he regained his composure and pondered lightly, ”Sect Leader Hanyi must have had poor health as a child, right? Sect Leader Jia Yi is truly remarkable!”

This inexplicable remark by Yun Xiao made Yu Shu, who was standing by his side, slightly furrow his brow, while Li Feng, the Sect Leader of Qingshan Sect who was not far away, seemed to take some delight in the misfortune.

It appeared that both sect leaders somewhat regarded Yun Xiao as a frivolous playboy who couldn’t help but tease a beautiful girl when he saw one. Yu Shu was slightly better, but Li Feng was clearly looking forward to seeing Jia Yi and her disciple’s possible outburst.

Indeed, according to most people’s reasoning, bringing up the topic of a young girl’s health immediately after shaking hands upon their initial meeting seemed overly anxious and impetuous. This might have greatly lowered Yun Xiao’s image in the eyes of Jia Yi and Liu Hanyi.

Little did they know that what happened next completely astounded Li Feng and the other onlookers: right after Yun Xiao finished speaking, an extreme astonishment was revealed on Liu Hanyi’s pretty face.

”How... how do you know that?”

Liu Hanyi’s voice trembled. Her abnormal physique was always a closely guarded secret of both her and the Luoyi Sect, something that even her Sect Leader master Jia Yi had spent countless heavenly materials and earthly treasures and effort to barely control. Yet, unexpectedly, it was seen through by a youth in an instant.

”Sect Leader Yu Shu, this disciple of yours is extraordinary!”

Standing beside them, Jia Yi turned her head and spoke to the Sect Leader of the Jade Pot Sect. She naturally understood the meaning behind Yun Xiao’s previous words. It was not just the recognition of Liu Hanyi’s childhood constitution but perhaps also how such a constitution was being controlled, which would probably not escape the discerning eyes of this young man.

”Hehe, this disciple of mine loves to spout nonsense. Sect Leader Jia Yi, please don’t mind him!”

At this moment, Yu Shu showed no sign of his prior concern. Instead, he wore a smile. Although he didn’t know how Yun Xiao discerned the secret, it was somewhat flattering for the Jade Pot Sect.

Moreover, Yu Shu suddenly recalled how Yun Xiao had previously cured Li Shan of the Seven Evil Poisonous Flame. He suddenly realized that he was becoming less and less able to see through this nominal disciple of his.

Despite Yu Shu’s words that casually dismissed Yun Xiao’s comments as ”nonsense” and urged Jia Yi not to mind them, anyone in the hall could hear the pride in his tone. This couldn’t help but feel like a slap in the face for Li Feng and the disciples of the Qingshan Sect once again.

While they were looking forward to seeing how Jia Yi and Liu Hanyi would deal with Yun Xiao, the seemingly frivolous playboy, they did not expect him to steal the spotlight again. How could Li Feng and Li Yue swallow this indignation?

However, it seemed that the matter was far from over. While Jia Yi and Yu Shu were conversing, Yun Xiao’s gaze remained fixed on Liu Hanyi, which appeared quite impolite to the bystanders.

But because of his previous statements, Liu Hanyi merely frowned slightly at Yun Xiao’s rude gaze and said nothing more.

”Sect Leader Hanyi, forgive my directness, but your body does not seem to be completely cured. Do you suffer an attack on the first and fifteenth day of each month, and isn’t each episode extremely painful?”

A few moments later, Yun Xiao spoke gently, causing Liu Hanyi’s body to shudder sharply, and even Jia Yi, who had been talking to Yu Shu, abruptly turned around, her gaze fixed on Yun Xiao, filled with extreme disbelief.

Witnessing the state of the master and disciple, the crowd didn’t need to guess that Yun Xiao was right once again. The crowd’s curiosity now peaked about Liu Hanyi’s special constitution and what could be causing both master and disciple such agitation.

The Luoyi Sect’s reputation had always been extremely mysterious, and aside from Jia Yi, the sect leader, the other figures within the sect were unknown to them.

But now, a mere youngster at the Late Stage of Meridian Rushing Realm, with just a couple of sentences, had exposed the usually inscrutable Jia Yi and her disciple, earning Yun Xiao much attention in that moment.

”Yun Xiao, do you have a way?”

After staring at Yun Xiao for a long while, Jia Yi suddenly stepped forward and grabbed the youth’s shoulder, her voice becoming somewhat urgent.

Liu Hanyi was Jia Yi’s most favored disciple, perhaps because their names both contained the character ”Yi,” or possibly for other reasons. In any case, Jia Yi had exhausted all her efforts for Liu Hanyi’s physique and had barely managed to control it.

However, it was just a barely managed control. On the first and fifteenth of each month, Liu Hanyi’s abnormal physique would erupt suddenly. Every time she saw her precious disciple in such agonizing pain, Jia Yi wished she could take her place.

Yet for years, Jia Yi had tried every possible method and had even invited all the Spirit-grade Advanced Pulse Refining Masters that could be called upon in the Xuanyue Empire, but to no avail for Liu Hanyi’s condition.

Who could have expected that at the birthday celebration of the King of the Xuanyue Country, a youth whom she hadn’t paid much attention to would break through the mystery with his words? At this moment, Jia Yi seemed like a drowning person clutching at a lifeline, even more excited than Liu Hanyi, who was the person directly involved.
