Chapter 109: The Dilemma of Nian Ling Zong
The gate of Nianling Sect has been filled with the laughter of disciples in the past few days.
Although that duel did not result in life or death, the outcome had been decided and the matter was final, and no one could change it.
The Wild Blade Sect was defeated.
Therefore, they had reason to be happy, especially those who had gone out for training but were severely despised and looked down upon when they met the disciples of the Wild Blade Sect. The slightly older brothers and sisters felt even more proud, and walked in the sect with their backs straighter than usual.
Now it is their turn to be a spiritual master and enjoy unlimited glory!
But the elders were not as complacent as they appeared to be when seeing the disciples' behavior. They even had a vague sense of crisis.
Especially those elders who are the most powerful.
In the main hall, Xiao Ling had a worried look on his face, and Sect Master Zhu Ling and the three elders also looked nervous.
Because no one expected that after finally defeating the arrogance of the Wild Blade Sect, they would be able to trample them under their feet for the next hundred years. But just after passing this hurdle, they attracted an even more terrifying person!
King Yanxuan has set his sights on them!
In other words, they have set their sights on that Mr. Gu!
"Grand Elder...what should we do about this?"
This time, even Zhu Ling could no longer show the same calmness as before.
Because compared with King Yan Xuan, who has elite troops under his command, strong strength, and is favored by Emperor Riyan, the threat posed by the Huangdao Sect is not worth mentioning at all. King Yan Xuan can even crush both the Huangdao Sect and the Nianling Sect together as if they were bugs by himself.
King Yanxuan wants Emperor Lingzong to do things, and if they don't do it obediently, how good will the outcome be?
"I don't know either, but now is definitely not a good time to disturb Master Gu."
Xiao Ling was silent for a moment, then sighed.
Almost five days have passed since the Battle of Jingku Valley ended.
During these five days, Xiao Ling's mood became increasingly heavy. The pressure that King Yan Xuan gave him that day made him feel what it meant to be tyrannical and unquestionable!
It was a huge rock, big enough to crush him to pieces!
But on Mr. Gu's side, there are even more massive mountains!
The Nianling Sect was now caught in the middle, and no matter how it moved, it seemed to be in trouble.
"That King Yan Xuan actually wants you to go to that Master Gu and ask for a holy item... That guy really doesn't have the slightest bit of courage! If he had the guts, he should have gone there himself!"
After a while, the great elder Mu Chong slammed the table hard and cursed angrily.
"snort!"
The third elder Wu Rong sneered disdainfully, "If he dares to come to my house in person, I will admire him!"
——Let Xiao Ling go to Gu Heng and find a way to get a holy magic weapon and give it to King Yan Xuan.
This is what King Yanxuan asked for.
To be honest, Xiao Ling was naturally devastated, because even if Master Gu gave him the Qianlong Pill, it was in exchange for his apprentice entering the Thousand Swords Hunting Ground, and he himself couldn't tell how much luck was involved in it.
Just with this Qianlong Pill, the crisis of Nianling Sect was resolved, and the future was bright!
This kindness can no longer be repaid.
Then why should he ask Senior Gu for a holy magic weapon?
They're not doing charity.If we are not careful, both ends of the Nianling Sect will be in trouble and will be shattered to pieces!
And King Yan Xuan was indeed insidious enough. He did not intend to contact Gu Heng personally, but let Xiao Ling do it.
Xiao Ling had thought about telling Gu Heng about this matter directly and asking him for help. If he could help, then King Yan Xuan was just a bug. But after thinking it over, Xiao Ling decided not to do so.
Because he couldn't figure out Gu Heng's attitude!
Will the owner of the clinic teach King Yan Xuan a lesson for the sake of Sect Nian Ling's survival?
Not likely.
He even opened a clinic in the mortal world to treat mortals. It was obvious that he did not want to continue to get involved in the mess between cultivators. Perhaps for Gu Heng, "living in seclusion in peace" was the goal.
Of course, the female disciple named Qin Yiyao may be an exception.
Gu Heng probably didn't care about the life or death of Nian Lingzong at all.
This made the Nian Ling Sect particularly difficult. On one hand, there was the aggressive King Yan Xuan, whom they could not afford to offend. On the other hand, if they came to Gu Heng to ask for help with such a matter, it might backfire and they would first incur Gu Heng's dissatisfaction.
"...I plan to put off King Yanxuan's request for now."
Xiao Ling finally thought of a more moderate method - delay.
Drag King Yanxuan first.
"But," said the great elder Mu Chong, frowning, "what if King Yan Xuan can't stand our delay?"
Xiao Ling's eyes showed determination: "Then I will take a gamble and tell Master Gu about this!"
"At worst, I, Nian Lingzong, will be finished, and King Yan Xuan will never escape Master Gu's wrath!"
As soon as these words were spoken, the atmosphere in the hall turned cold.
Although the battle of Jingku Valley was won beautifully, King Yanxuan was under pressure from time to time, and they were still holding back their anger.
If King Yan Xuan really pushes too hard...
"Tomorrow, the Thousand Swords Hunting Ground will open."
Xiao Ling calculated the time. It had been a week since he last visited Gu Heng and handed him the jade token to enter the Thousand Swords Hunting Ground.
Tomorrow, the Thousand Swords Hunting Ground will be opened, and Nian Ling Sect has actually selected ten of its most elite disciples to enter and train for five days.
"Master Gu's disciples will also be here. I'm just worried that the ten disciples who are allowed in will offend her."
As Zhu Ling spoke, he glanced at Wu Rong who was looking embarrassed.
Wu Rong did not refute, because the fact was that his adopted grandson had offended Qin Yiyao and then something happened.
Although the subsequent development of this situation was really unexpected.
"You should tell the ten of them tonight that one more person will enter the Thousand Swords Hunting Ground tomorrow. Tell them to watch their mouths and hands!"
"If there's any trouble, we'll punish you according to the sect rules!"
Xiao Ling said in a cold voice.
The other four responded in unison.
The terrible trouble that Wu Jie caused must not happen again!
If it happens a second time, the consequence may not be a blessing in disguise, but death!
