Chapter 61: The Incident at Yaochi Sect (2/2)

In front of her, on a jade bed, a woman with a voluptuous figure and disheveled clothing lay sideways.

She appeared to be a middle-aged woman, yet she was extremely beautiful, possessing a mature elegance.

As the sect leader, she should have paid attention to her daily attire, but she seemed to care little about it.

Facing a large group of elders surrounding her, a few strands of thin gauze draped over her body, providing little coverage.

She looked rather disheveled.

Moreover, what was even more bizarre was that her pupils were actually gray!

It seemed as if she had lost her sight, staring blankly with her eyes wide open.

Upon hearing Dantai Ying announce her name, she frowned slightly, revealing a hint of impatience.

“What is the matter?”

Yaochi Sect leader Wen Ruyu spoke in a somewhat weak voice.

“The disciple just brought a man up the mountain, and he is currently in the disciple’s cave.” Dantai Ying reported respectfully.

As soon as these words were spoken, the surrounding elders erupted in an uproar.

“You actually brought a man up the mountain?! You have gone too far!”

“No wonder that disciple of Mo Lan is truly rebellious and unprincipled!”

“With such a disciple, Mo Lan still wants to inherit our Yaochi Sect? Simply a foolish dream!”

The elders took turns criticizing Dantai Ying, angrily denouncing her actions.

Some elders remained silent, looking at Dantai Ying with sympathetic eyes, but these elders were far too few among all the humans, barely a handful.

Yaochi Sect leader Wen Ruyu had encountered a setback in her cultivation three months ago, resulting in severe damage to her Spirit Body, leaving her blind and having lost most of her cultivation.

She was no longer able to fulfill the duties of sect leader and had to resign early.

Her two junior sisters, Gu Ruotong and Mo Lan, were the strongest competitors!

However, it was evident that Dantai Ying’s master, Mo Lan, was at a disadvantage now.

Seemingly bothered by the noise from the elders, Wen Ruyu waved her hand, signaling everyone to be quiet.

Although her cultivation had regressed, she still held some authority.

“Dantai Ying, bringing a man into our Yaochi Sect is a serious crime. You should know this.”

“You must tell me that you covered his eyes and have a matching reason.”

“Otherwise, you will be stripped of your cultivation and expelled from Yaochi, and that man will have his eyes gouged out!”

Wen Ruyu’s words were icy and unceremonious.

In the past three months, under the constant persuasion of the elders aligned with Gu Ruotong, Wen Ruyu had gradually been swayed.

Thus, even Dantai Ying had become a target of hostility.

Dantai Ying seemed to have been waiting for this moment; upon hearing the words, she immediately stood tall and declared:

“The disciple covered his eyes, ensuring he saw nothing.”

“Moreover, according to the disciple’s knowledge, this young man is about to join the Confucian Sect and become one of the Twelve Young Talents of the Confucian Sect in seven years!”

As soon as these words were spoken, the entire place fell silent.

Even Wen Ruyu’s lifeless eyes widened in surprise.

Gouging out the eyes of a Confucian Sect Twelve Young Talents…

At that time, there would be no Yaochi Sect left in the Spirit Martial Continent!

“Nonsense, how could a candidate for the Twelve Young Talents come here!”

“You rebellious disciple, how dare you boast! Where did you find this wild man?”

Several elders expressed disbelief and scolded her.

Dantai Ying let out a cold laugh:

“Absolutely true, because soon, another disciple from the Confucian Sect will visit, specifically to take this man, which is why the disciple invited him to the sect.”

“Moreover, the disciple can also confirm…”

Dantai Ying’s lips curled into a strange arc, seemingly looking forward to the elders’ reactions.

“The disciple can confirm that this young man has some special feelings for the disciple…”

The elders fell silent again, their gazes toward Dantai Ying filled with shock!

That was the Confucian Sect! One of the giants of the continent!

If they could utilize a Confucian Sect Twelve Young Talents, the benefits gained would be unprecedented!

Although Yaochi cultivators could never break their bodies and could not form partnerships with humans.

There had been many Yaochi Sect leaders in history who, relying on their charm, had manipulated various major forces at their fingertips.

Ultimately establishing the current status of Yaochi Sect.

As long as the final line was not crossed, this was not a taboo matter.

Dantai Ying was announcing that she had connected Yaochi Sect to the Confucian Sect!

This was equivalent to adding significant leverage for her master, allowing her to turn the tide in a disadvantageous situation!

Although there were some details that were problematic.

For instance, the interesting human was not Ning Wuxie, but her.

“…Is this true?” Wen Ruyu pondered for a long time before asking.

Her tone had lost the previous impatience, appearing serious and tense.

“Of course, it is true.”

At this moment, Dantai Ying held her head high, feeling quite proud.

“Then you should quickly return and invite him for a discussion!”

“Understood.”

Dantai Ying clasped her fists, turned, and strode away, swiftly flying toward her cave.
