Chapter 79 must be thoroughly investigated!
"Then let's finalize it now and have the people from the Northern Ridge Holy Land send someone over. What do you all think?" The Third Elder asked, looking at the large group of people.
"As long as the Northern Ridge Holy Land is willing to hand over the quota for the Tower of the Abyss, then of course we can let them come over. After all, reciprocity is the key to direct exchanges between sects." Elder Duanmu nodded.
He had actually agreed from the beginning, after all, the Tower of the Abyss was just too magical, and even the disciples from the Northern Ridge Holy Land might not have the opportunity to enter it, so this opportunity was very important.
"Third Elder, I find Elder Xing very suspicious! He doesn't care about his own sect, but instead thinks about other sects. There must be something fishy going on!" the Sixth Elder suddenly said.
"Sixth Elder, you can't say that. Elder Xing might have meant it unintentionally." Elder Bai pretended to defend the other party, but secretly winked at everyone.
"Didn't you see his pointed face and monkey-like features? Could it have been unintentional? He looks like a wicked person. He must have come to the Southern Spirit Sect to harm people!" The Sixth Elder said in anguish.
"Pfft, cough cough cough!" Lan Yue almost spat out her mouthful of spiritual tea, choking on it and her eyes welling up with tears.
"No, it's nothing, I just choked, you guys continue!"
She was just pondering how to secretly leak the information to the elders when she didn't expect the Sixth Elder to be so bold as to stand up immediately.
She used the same method she had just come up with but dared not use.
All I can say is that the Sixth Elder is truly awe-inspiring!
Of course, Lan Yue didn't think the other party had heard her thoughts; the cultivation world simply didn't have the ability to hear one's thoughts.
It can only be said that the Sixth Elder was probably driven to desperation; even without evidence, he had to arrest the person.
After all, Elder Xing was too anxious just now and revealed a very obvious flaw.
How could someone as devoted to the sect as the Sixth Elder possibly let this guy leave?
However, this reason is simply untenable and only arouses suspicion.
It seems she still needs to think of a solution...
"Sixth Brother is right. His appearance is indeed suspicious. You should leave for now, and I will send someone to investigate." The Third Elder nodded in agreement.
"Yes, the Sixth Elder has said everything I wanted to say. At this critical moment, he is thinking of other sects and not working for the benefit of the Southern Spirit Sect. Isn't this betraying his own sect? Third Elder, the sect must investigate this thoroughly!"
Elder Fang also spoke righteously.
As more and more elders stood up, Lan Yue, who was sitting there, was dumbfounded.
Seeing that Yunxi next to her was making a move, Lanyue also stood up and nodded.
"Alright, that concludes today's gathering. Now, you can prepare for the emergence of the ruins. Lan Yue and Yun Xi, please be careful when you go to the ruins."
The Third Elder quickly disappeared with Elder Xing.
Even after Lan Yue was taken back, she was still in a daze.
Was the matter resolved so quickly?
Why does it feel like the elders on the other side aren't the ones cheating, but rather the ones who are using cheat codes?
She wanted to remind them of two things during the meeting, but they handled them perfectly on their own.
Forget it, thinking so much is a waste of brainpower. As long as she can enjoy watching the drama unfold, why bother with all this?
"Shall we go to the ruins next?" Lan Yue asked curiously.
"There's still time for you to prepare, don't be in such a hurry." The Sixth Elder couldn't help but chuckle whenever he thought about what these little ones had done on Green Jade Mountain.
In all his years as an elder in the Southern Spirit Sect, he's probably only ever seen these few youngsters so arrogant, treating them as his protectors.
The Sixth Elder originally intended to take them to Lingyue Peak, but saw several familiar figures on the way, so he stopped nearby: "Go back first and prepare everything. Don't think that just because this is a relic within the sect, everything is fine."
"The ruins of Jue Ling Island have never been seen before, and even the sect has never seen them before. All the dangers are still unknown, so we must remain vigilant."
"Okay, thank you, Sixth Elder!"
The two little ones waved goodbye to the Sixth Elder and saw Li Bai and the others standing not far away, seemingly confronting the others.
Actually, calling it a standoff isn't quite accurate, because it was more like a small pink snake and a small gray eagle, both clinging tightly to Li Bai and refusing to let go.
Then the owners of these two spirit beasts stood awkwardly to the side, unable to be pulled away.
"Little Pink, I'm telling you, different species can't fall in love. No matter how much you like this little yellow chick, we can't get this excited!" Yan Xiao grabbed the pink snake's tail tightly.
"Little Grey, listen to your brother's advice, let's come back. Wouldn't it be better if you and Little Pink were a couple? Why are you all so interested in that little yellow chick? It's just an ordinary chick, it really can't be your wife!" Yan Fu also tried to persuade him earnestly from the side.
However, the little yellow furball that they both disliked was furious.
If it weren't for the fact that he was surrounded by humans and it wasn't inconvenient to reveal his identity, his head would probably be spitting fire by now.
"Chirp chirp chirp!" You're the little yellow chick, your whole family are little yellow chicks!
"Chirp chirp chirp chirp chirp!" Snake Seven, Eagle Five, what exactly did you two do?
The two little demons trembled with fear. They ignored the humans behind them and desperately tried to squeeze forward.
Li Bai was right in the center of the battlefield. If it weren't for the magic robes he was wearing today, his clothes would probably have been torn to shreds by these two little demons.
"How about this, junior brothers and sisters, if you're willing, we can buy these two spirit beasts so they can be together and you won't be so excited."
Li Bai felt a deep sense of loss; this was the first time he had ever experienced being fought over, except that the species were somewhat different—they were two spirit beasts.
Yan Xiao and Yan Fu on the other side hesitated. Although they had only recently bought the two monsters, they had developed feelings for them, having spent every day eating melons and playing together. They were really reluctant to sell them directly.
Actually, they were thinking that they could have just bought the little yellow chick.
But that little yellow chick is, after all, the senior brother's spirit beast, so he has to give the senior brother face.
So the two of them hesitated a lot.
However, the two little demon beasts did not hesitate at all. After listening to the discussion on the human side, they became even happier and pounced onto Li Bai's shoulder.
Young Master, Young Master! We've finally found you!
The pink snake wept with joy.
Young Master, I'm late!
The gray eagle looked guilty.
The little yellow fluffy ball: "..."
Seeing that she couldn't pull him away no matter what she did, Yan Xiao had no choice but to let go.
"Senior Brother, we bought these two spirit beasts, and although we haven't had them for long, we've already considered them our friends. If they like you, then we can only ask that you take good care of them."
Soon, Yan Xiao left with her brother, turning back every few steps.
A small pink snake and a small gray eagle remained here, each perched on Li Bai's shoulder, looking quite proud.
But the little yellow furball kept its back to them.
"We're back." Lan Yue, having just watched a grand show with Yun Xi, returned with a beaming smile.
Without any hesitation, the little yellow fluffy ball jumped directly into Yunxi's arms, even making soft, squeaky noises, just like it was tattling.
The two little demons opposite them stared wide-eyed in disbelief.
Is this still their majestic young master?
The two little demons who had finally found their young master were bewildered in the wind.
They haven't seen the young master for a while, so how come his gender has become a mystery?
Otherwise, why would it make such a sound?
The two little demons shivered.
It was only after Gu Zhu glared fiercely at the two little demons that they recovered.
Very good, this is the normal young master. The previous one must have been fake!
