Chapter 65: Giving the Ghost Spirit Sect No Peace
The affair of Yan Family Fortress spread through the entire Yue Kingdom Cultivation World like a hurricane, and the first to be unable to sit still were the Seven Sects of Yue Kingdom.
Once the upper echelons of Yanyue Sect learned that Yan Taibai had handed over industries, Spirit Stone veins, medicinal gardens, and the like to Yanyue Sect, they had no further objections.
Furthermore, they guaranteed that the other six sects and the various cultivation families of Yue Kingdom would also have no objections.
This was the confidence of Yanyue Sect, the number one sect among the Seven Sects of Yue Kingdom.
Although they were still inferior to Ghost Spirit Sect—otherwise, how could Wu Shishu of Yanyue Sect have so easily allowed the cultivators of Yan Family Fortress to leave the Yue Kingdom Cultivation World?
The most important reason was still the disparity in strength.
Although the two countries were far apart, Ghost Spirit Sect still had the ability to make Yanyue Sect restless and plagued with constant trouble. And now, this was clearly the best result.
Of course, Yan Ruyan was still a significant source of trouble here, but fortunately, with Yan Taibai and Nishang Xianzi, and given that Yan Ruyan was already sensible and mature, she did not say much, merely practicing even more diligently.
She also promised not to leave Yanyue Sect as much as possible, and even if she did leave, she would not expose her identity.
Regarding this, Yanyue Sect naturally had nothing more to say.
As for Yan Family Fortress leaving Yue Kingdom, the Seven Sects of Yue Kingdom and the many cultivation families were completely indifferent.
On the contrary, they were quite happy, because a powerful family that competed for cultivation resources was gone.
However, what disappointed them was that the Yan Family Ancestor had given all these cultivation resources to Yan Taibai and Yan Ruyan in one go.
And with Yanyue Sect as their backer, it naturally would not be their turn.
However, Yanyue Sect did not monopolize it all; after Yan Taibai's tacit approval, they also distributed a portion to the other sects.
Regarding this, Yan Taibai was also helpless; after all, the Spirit Stone veins, medicinal gardens, and businesses left behind by the Yan Family were simply not things he, a Foundation Establishment Stage cultivator, could control.
If it were not for his master being Qiong Laoguai, the number one Golden Core Stage cultivator in Yue Kingdom, he would have long since been eaten down to the bones.
Likewise, with such a major event occurring, Yan Taibai's master, Qiong Laoguai, naturally rushed back at the fastest speed, and after successfully silencing many of the dissenting upper echelons of Yanyue Sect,
he called Yan Taibai into his cave dwelling to inquire about the specific situation.
Regarding this, Yan Taibai naturally told Qiong Laoguai everything that had happened, one by one.
Furthermore, he also intended to make Ghost Spirit Sect restless, thereby preventing them as much as possible from continuing to scheme against his little wife, Yan Ruyan.
And the method to make Yan Family Fortress restless was, naturally, to tell Qiong Laoguai that the Heavenly Luo Kingdom Six Demon Sects would invade multiple countries, including Yue Kingdom, Yuanwu Country, Cheqi Kingdom, and Jiang Kingdom, in about ten years or so.
In reality, this was the only method Yan Taibai had now.
"Where did you learn this information?"
After hearing Yan Taibai's news, Qiong Laoguai was incomparably shocked in both his heart and on his face.
He naturally believed this information, but he needed concrete evidence; otherwise, his belief alone was completely useless.
"Disciple learned partial information from the Ghost Spirit Sect cultivator who originally assassinated me, plus the intelligence the Yan Family has gathered over so many years, the news I've gathered while Slaying Demons and Eliminating Devils during this period, and finally, the analysis of the previous events. I dare not say I have ten parts certainty, but I am seven or eight parts confident."
Yan Taibai stated the excuse he had prepared, one by one.
"This matter cannot be made believable based on your word alone, especially since this matter involves you personally, making it even less credible. I presume you are aware of this. Therefore, I can only promise you that I will tell your Grand Senior Sister and personally head to Tianluo Country, Cheqi Kingdom, and Jiang Kingdom to investigate. Once confirmed, you will have performed a monumental service. This will be of immense benefit to both the Seven Sects and yourself."
Upon hearing this, Qiong Laoguai pondered for a moment and made his decision.
"Is it too dangerous for Master to go to Tianluo Country?"
After hearing Qiong Laoguai's words, Yan Taibai's expression changed, and he quickly said.
"Dangerous? Cultivation is dangerous everywhere. However, with my 'Invisible Evasion Technique', even if I encounter a Nascent Soul cultivator, retreating unscathed is not a difficult task, so you do not need to worry too much."
Qiong Laoguai shook his head and comforted him with great confidence.
"Then Master, please take extra care."
Seeing this, Yan Taibai did not try to persuade him further; he naturally could not rely on Qiong Laoguai alone, he also had to make preparations.
As long as he could make Ghost Spirit Sect restless and unable to attend to other matters, then naturally, Yan Ruyan and he would be safe.
This could be considered "borrowing a knife to kill."
If the matter of the Heavenly Luo Kingdom Six Demon Sects invading various countries were exposed, and specifically pointed at Ghost Spirit Sect, the other five Demon Sects would definitely not let Ghost Spirit Sect off easily.
Likewise, various countries would also dispatch disciples and elders to Tianluo Country to scout for information.
By then, Tianluo Country would become lively, especially Ghost Spirit Sect, which would inevitably be the top priority and be left restless.
In this way, the safety of Yan Taibai and Yan Ruyan would be greatly improved.
"You as well; during this period, go to the cave dwelling of Junior Martial Niece Nangong to practice, and do not practice in your own cave dwelling. Of course, my cave dwelling is also fine, it is up to you. But remember to be careful; Ghost Spirit Sect will absolutely not let you and the girl Ruyan off easily."
Qiong Laoguai also nodded and reminded him with an exceptionally grave expression.
Qiong Laoguai was even more aware than Yan Taibai of the trouble that would arise if this matter were exposed.
"Master, rest assured, this disciple understands the gravity of the situation and will definitely not act recklessly. I will certainly focus on cultivation within the cave dwelling."
Yan Taibai naturally agreed.
As for whether he would actually do it, he was not so sure.
After all, only when Ghost Spirit Sect was restless could he be safe here.
"It is good that you understand. As for the matters of Yan Family Fortress, you should also pay more attention, but remember that no matter what happens, wait for me to return or for your Senior Martial Uncle to come out of seclusion before doing anything. Do not act recklessly."
Qiong Laoguai spoke again about the matters of Yan Family Fortress. Nowadays, the series of industries including the Spirit Stones, other material veins, medicinal gardens, and shops of Yan Family Fortress were a big piece of fat meat.
Because of Yanyue Sect, the other sects dared not scheme against it, but within Yanyue Sect, there were at least eighty if not a hundred cultivation families, and since the status and position of Yan Taibai and Yan Ruyan were so special, they naturally all wanted a taste.
After all, with Ghost Spirit Sect around, no one knew if Yan Taibai could actually live until the Golden Core Stage, so if they didn't take a bite now, it would be too late when they wanted to later.
Qiong Laoguai was very clear about the intentions of these cultivation families.
Therefore, he worried that Yan Taibai would have conflicts with the various cultivation families of Yanyue Sect due to issues of interest.
If he were not in Yanyue Sect, the ones to suffer and be unlucky would, nine times out of ten, be Yan Taibai and Yan Ruyan.
Moreover, if they were pushed too far, there might even be a threat to their lives.
Such things were not impossible to happen.
After all, Yan Taibai's talent was too terrifying. Once offended, the consequences could be imagined.
Naturally, it had to be resolved in advance!
