Episode 117
Chang'er bid farewell to Bu Xu, lowering her head and continuing on her way. The bitterness in her heart gradually spread, almost overwhelming her desire to take Bu Xu to the demon palace. However, she was also clear-headed, knowing that humans and demons were not tolerated by the world, and that the demon palace was a place for demon cultivators, not her private property. Moreover, even if she wanted to give it to Bu Xu, her current cultivation level was insufficient. This demon cultivator had an endless cycle of fixed methods, and no one could break through! Furthermore, helping Bu Xu now would be like pulling up seedlings to help them grow, which might bring temporary benefits but would ultimately hinder future progress! If Bu Xu couldn't ascend to the heavens, it would surely become a source of regret.
"Where is your sister going?"
"Ah! It's Senior Gao. I've gone to Brother Chuxi's place. What's the hurry, Senior?"
"Oh, nothing else, just go wherever you want!"
"Senior brother, my family and I are also among those who were introduced by you, we're on your side. Why do you treat me like this, evading and avoiding me? Is it because you're dissatisfied with my family's insufficient background, which led to the suffering of imprisonment and implicated you?"
"Nothing! Nothing! It's just that I've been a bit busy lately and haven't had much time to chat with you, sister."
"If so, I have something to ask you, and I hope you can enlighten me, senior brother."
"Ah, yes, ah, Sister, please go ahead!"
Gao Wu Yu said with anxiety.
"Big brother, is our sect going to take action against my family's useless younger brother soon?"
"This, this, just... Junior Sister, to be honest with you, this matter is too important, even I, Senior Brother, don't know about it! Maybe Lin Jiang that guy knows a thing or two, but it's not certain!"
"Oh! Big brother is keeping a secret, just hiding it from little sister. Little sister already understands, the sect wants to make our family's insufficient brothers......"
"Hush! You're like a younger sister to me, don't dare speak nonsense about this!"
Gao Wuyou was shocked and lost his composure, hastily scanning all around him.
"Big brother, I'm not as lucky as you were in your first life-and-death experience and then suffered unjust accusations. Now I'm trapped in prison, but still managed to successfully break the secret of the Taichu Great Formation for our sect... but in the end, it's all futile..."
"Stop making noise, stop making noise."
Gao Yu was so frightened that his face turned pale, and he hastily interrupted Chang'er.
"Big brother is so tense, I wonder what's going on?"
"This matter is currently a taboo, it's not that your senior brother is hiding from you, those who know about this matter are the lowest level in our sect, besides you and me, there's no one else."
"Oh! Does Lin Jiang know? His master is also the sect leader!"
"It may have known, but it's already... already been eliminated! Others who knew were also... Alas! The rest are all gone!"
"Kill him?"
"Yes! As for your junior sister, I didn't kill her because Feng Cheng still has use to the sect. Killing you would only make Feng Shi-di go mad!"
"Why is that senior brother so energetic and lively?"
"What nonsense! Do you think I want Master to die?"
"No! My master is the great support of our family, how could I have such a heart?"
"Sister, it's possible that we need to set up a plan within our school, to deceive heaven and cross the sea!"
"Deceive heaven and cross the sea? Could it be......"
"Feng Shidi should be worry-free for now."
"Thank you, senior brother!"
Chang'er bowed in respect. Suddenly, a transmission talisman transformed into a blue bird and flew over, High Wuyou beckoned with his hand, and the talisman landed in his palm. High Wuyou held the talisman up to the heavenly gate and read it, his expression suddenly changing, he hastily said:
"Sister, Master has summoned me, I'm going."
"What's wrong, Big Brother?"
"Hmm, in any case, Master Feng is safe and sound, so you can rest assured, Sister!"
He finished speaking and drove the cloud to rise and fly towards the Yixiu Xianfu. Chang'e secretly cast a spell on Gao Wuyou's hair bun, sticking to it like glue, and followed him away. Seeing Gao Wuyou leave, Zhang Wuji let out a long sigh.
Chang'er returned to the place of the female Zhenren, and saw that she was indeed not there. She quietly retrieved a strand of her divine consciousness that had been separated from her, which transformed into a wisp of blue smoke and arrived in an instant. Chang'er carefully read the information obtained by her divine consciousness, and learned that recently, covert plots had been frequent, and the pressure exerted by the opposing faction within their alliance was quite heavy. Even the venerable ancestors of the Yixiu Sect felt deeply uneasy, but she did not obtain any further information about other matters.
"It's better to wait for a long time without worry and come again."
Chang'e tidied up the study of Taiyi Zhenren, then withdrew. She went to a place with no distractions, sat quietly in stillness and waited. It wasn't until near dusk that her senior brother Gao arrived.
"Aiya! You're like a younger sister, you scared your older brother to death!"
"Big Brother is also a great repair, how can I, a humble little sister, be under discussion? Is there any shocking theory? Can't Big Brother have something on his mind?"
"Alas! Don't hide it from you, Sister, I've got a headache!"
"What would make Shifu's head ache?"
"The old ancestor of the sect has handed over the Penal Hall to me, this matter is a great responsibility, so I have a headache! Haha!"
Gao Wu Yu burst out laughing, his voice filled with extreme joy.
"Congratulations, Master! Congratulations, Master! Tomorrow, I'll go to your house and ask for a copy of the cultivation manual as a gift!"
Chang'e was taken aback, then bowed her head and said.
"From now on, follow your senior brother, and he will surely make you famous and greatly increase your magical powers."
"Thank you, senior brother! With this, aren't you of the same status as our revered Master Taiyi Zhenren?"
"Indeed! In terms of actual power, haha, I'm not boasting, but I'm even above Master's daughter, the True Immortal!"
"Brother is indeed a young genius, how can the likes of Ben Lei and Feng Ming compare?"
"Hmm! Are you going with me to the Court of Penal Law for inspection?"
"Senior brother is busy, junior sister doesn't dare disturb him, takes leave and will come back in a few days to congratulate senior brother."
Chang'e returned. When she arrived at the residence of the Queen Mother of the West, all she heard was the Queen Mother saying:
"Hasn't Gao Yun come yet?"
"Returning to Master, Senior Brother Gao has not arrived yet."
"Good! Good! Good!"
Taiyi Zhenren called out three times, and then a sound of shattering porcelain was heard. Chang'er walked over and saw several disciples attending to the female Zhenren trembling with fear, so she quietly returned to her own quarters to meditate. When the noise outside stopped, she put the single strand of hair from Gao Wuyou's headdress into her ear. Everything that Gao Wuyou had in Yixiuxianfu was now in her ears.
“······“
The host's voice came from the way:
"The ancestors had a decree, ordering the high-ranking disciple Wu Yu to be the Grand Elder of the Penal Law Hall, in charge of penal law affairs, with a position equal to that of the Sect Master."
"Thanks to the ancestors' kindness, I, Gao Wu Yu, will do my best to complete the task, and work hard for the prosperity of our sect until my death!"
"Ah! Not bad."
"Without any worries, handling matters fairly and acting cautiously, although not being all-powerful, but with the help of several senior elders from the Criminal Law Temple, we will definitely do a good job in handling the affairs of the Criminal Law Temple."
Another elder said.
"There are several matters that need to be dealt with urgently. The ancestors have given orders, and the Grand Elder of the Punishment Hall, Gao Wuyou, has been summoned to go with me to the secret realm for discussion. Everyone else, retreat."
"Respectfully following the master's instructions."
Gao Wuyou said loudly.
After a faint rustling sound, another sound of the temple door closing was transmitted into Chang'er's mind. Chang'er understood that they had probably gone to the secret realm.
"The master is away, and I have just taken over the Law Enforcement Hall. I'm afraid of making mistakes and causing trouble, which would ruin important matters for our sect. I sincerely ask for your guidance, please teach me."
"Rest assured, you are now a senior elder of the Punishment Hall, with a status similar to mine. You will gradually learn about the affairs within the sect. However, there is one thing you must remember: the sect has many factions, and your inclination affects the overall situation, so be cautious! Be cautious!"
"The master is busy with major repairs, his disciple is foolish and ignorant. He still hopes for your guidance without hesitation, the disciple is deeply grateful."
"Haha, no worries. As the saying goes, 'don't forget the well digger when drinking water'. Your position as the head of the temple didn't come easily."
"Disciple understands. Thank you, Master, for your guidance!"
"Cough cough...... Has the Great Elder of the Law Enforcement Temple arrived?"
"Disciple Gao Wuyun pays his respects to the ancestors!"
"Alright, never mind. Master of the door, hand over the relevant matters!"
"Yes, I shall obey the law."
