Chapter 268: Nothing Can Be Said
Thousand Tribulations Senior Nun directly Dòngshǒu, killing the former Putuo Holy Lord.
The entire Putuo Holy Land was silent.
Everyone gazed at the scene before them, their expressions somewhat complex.
Yue Rou officially became the Holy Lord of Putuo Holy Land.
At this moment, Qin Yang also caught up to his master, Baiyun.
He had arrived at the Yuan family; with a single slap, the entire Yuan family vanished.
Then Baiyun employed a secret method to trace the Yuan family's bloodline.
Strands of killing light vanished into the void; Qin Yang could sense that each strand of killing light signified the disappearance of a life.
Annihilate completely.
This is the master's method.
After doing all this, Baiyun's gaze finally fell upon Qin Yang.
"Very good, you are about to enter the third level."
Qin Yang nodded, unable to hold back: "Master, what exactly is your background? You are certainly not an ordinary Xiūshì of Fanchén."
He gave Qin Yang an approving glance.
"You guessed correctly."
Baiyun smiled faintly.
"Master, what exactly is your identity?"
Qin Yang immediately asked.
"I won't tell you."
Baiyun's face bore a hint of a smile.
Qin Yang: "……"
It seemed the master still had no intention of telling him anything.
"I have taken on a disciple, passing my cultivation method to him; however, master, could you tell me what my cultivation method actually is?"
Qin Yang continued to ask.
Baiyun thought seriously for a moment, then, under Qin Yang's expectant gaze, said: "Your grandmaster forbids me from speaking."
"Grandmaster?"
Qin Yang staggered for a moment—did he even have a grandmaster?
"Is the grandmaster still alive?"
Qin Yang asked, somewhat surprised.
"In the whole world, hardly anyone could kill him."
Baiyun laughed,
his tone full of pride.
Qin Yang really wanted to ask who the grandmaster was, but seeing his master's demeanor, it was clear he wouldn't be told, so he simply refrained from asking.
"I know what you're thinking; you guessed right—I certainly won't tell you your grandmaster's identity, as it is of great importance and cannot be spoken of for now."
Baiyun said.
Qin Yang felt a tightness in his chest.
He was so angry he laughed.
As the Senior Brother of the sect, he didn't even know the sect's specific origins, leaving him utterly speechless.
"Do you have anything else you want to ask?"
"Shall I ask you?"
"No."
Baiyun said.
Qin Yang was speechless.
"Then I won't ask."
Qin Yang said with a helpless expression.
"Hehe, cultivate well—your peaceful days are few."
Baiyun laughed.
Qin Yang jumped in alarm, eyeing his master suspiciously: "Master, don't scare me—how could my peaceful days be few? No one in this world could threaten me, right?"
Baiyun smiled faintly, saying nothing.
Qin Yang pondered, then probed: "Master, if I can't win, will you lend me a hand?"
"No, by then I will likely have many opponents myself and won't be able to help you; you must only make yourself stronger. Moreover, many legendary figures have appeared on Lan Xing, and you get along well with them, so you could have them assist you."
"Alright."
Qin Yang let out a sigh.
Having seen what the master is, he simply refuses to speak of it.
Everything now requires him to explore on his own.
"Don't blame the master either; some things you must explore yourself to find the answers—the master telling you would be of no benefit, and knowing things in advance would also be of no benefit."
Baiyun chuckled lightly.
"Alright, I understand the big picture, can't be bothered with more talk—master, goodbye."
Having said that, Qin Yang turned and walked away.
Baiyun smiled.
He shook his head, Xiāoshī bújiàn.
Putuo Holy Land changed hands, the Yuan family was wiped out, but these two pieces of news were not as shocking as the news that Baiyun reappeared and killed two Sǎnxiān.
Those who originally wanted to act against Qin Yang now all laid down their arms.
They were uneasy in their hearts, and also felt somewhat relieved, fortunate that they had not taken Dòngshǒu earlier; otherwise, even if they had killed Qin Yang, Baiyun would come to their door.
"This old hag is really a dog, still alive."
"Yeah, nobody expected that his disappearance was like a deliberate trap, luring everyone to act against Qin Yang and Baiyun Guan; at the critical moment, he made a move, killed two Sǎnxiān, and wiped out the entire Yuan family."
Even such a top-tier Yuan family was wiped out.
That was Baiyun making a move.
If Qin Yang had taken Dòngshǒu, now definitely many people would be criticizing Qin Yang.
Even some would choose to take Dòngshǒu against Qin Yang, wanting to use this opportunity to kill him.
But what Baiyun did was different.
Those people basically said nothing, as if they didn't know the Yuan family had been wiped out.
This made Qin Yang unable to help sighing; indeed, only with strength can one be willful.
As long as you have absolute strength, no matter what you do, no one will dare to blame you.
Qin Yang came to Putuo Holy Land, staying here for two days.
Actually, he was helping Yue Rou hold the scene.
The Sǎnxiān masters of Putuo Holy Land were killed by Baiyun, now lacking sufficient foundation.
Qian Jie Shitai, although in mid-stage of the tribulation crossing, if encountering an extremely top-tier expert, still somewhat lacking.
With Qin Yang holding the fort, it's different.
Soon, Putuo Holy Land held a banquet, inviting various experts, to celebrate Yue Rou becoming the Holy Lord.
All invited sects came.
Top-tier sects had some reservations about Putuo Holy Land.
Letting a Nascent Soul stage become the Holy Lord, one doesn't know what Putuo Holy Land is thinking.
Now even the Sǎnxiān masters have been killed.
In their eyes, Putuo Holy Land is no longer considered a top-tier sect.
However, when seeing Qin Yang, Zhang Ling, and Zi Changsheng supporting Putuo Holy Land, many people's expressions changed.
With these few around, Putuo Holy Land truly isn't afraid of others.
Even without the Sǎnxiān, the support of these three forces makes them more terrifying than when they had the Sǎnxiān.
How about the Nascent Soul Holy Lord?
With such strong support, even if she is merely a Fánrén, no one dares to disrespect her.
Realizing this, they finally began to value Putuo Holy Land and Yue Rou. Their attitudes also became respectful.
Yue Rou could feel this change; she clearly knew this was brought by Qin Yang and others.
Otherwise, having lost the Sǎnxiān, Putuo Holy Land would have lost the qualification to be the top power in the world, and those people would not be so polite toward Putuo Holy Land.
A celebratory banquet, only ending three days later.
The affairs of Putuo Holy Land, dust settled.
As for the Yuan family's fate, no one bothered to ask.
Nobody wants to clash head-on with Qin Yang and company over a disappeared family.
Qin Yang clearly felt that the gazes of those people toward him had much less hostility.
Of course, it's not that their hostility toward him turned into a smile; it's just because Baiyun is present, they dare not reveal their hostility.
Qin Yang chuckled; the cultivation world is no different—bullying the soft and fearing the hard, no different from Fanchén.
