Chapter 208: Addicted to Taking Disciples (Third Update)

The Cave Master of Broken Dragon Cave, looking even more unsightly, sternly exclaimed, “You’re damning me to death!”

“Senior, don’t you yourself know best about what you’ve done? At midnight, ghosts will come to claim your life.”

Of course, Ye Wenxin was not just bluffing. She saw the aura surrounding the Cave Master, already dark and tangible, as if countless tortured souls were crying out from him.

Ye Wenxin didn’t need to think to know that this Cave Master of Broken Dragon Cave was truly deranged, and his disaster was imminent.

He would surely meet an untimely death within the next few days.

The Cave Master’s expression grew even uglier. He wanted to say something more, but then he heard a report from the Azure Wings Sect disciple who had left earlier.

“Sect Master, we chased after the sword Qi just now, but the person was too fast and managed to escape. However, I can assure you, they are indeed from the demon sects!”

The report brought mixed feelings. Ye Wenxin recognized the leader of the reporting group; if she remembered correctly, this was a senior brother she knew from her Alchemy days, which meant he was also intentionally helping her.

The Sect Master of Azure Wings Sect frowned slightly, rather surprised, “That person was unharmed?”

The senior brother continued, “They took an arrow to the heart, but had very strong willpower. Based on appearance and demeanor, if there was no disguise, it was probably a woman.”

The Sect Master glanced at the Cave Master of Broken Dragon Cave, then solemnly said, “Very well, continue the investigation; we must seek justice for our Azure Wings Sect disciples.”

The disciple immediately complied and led the remaining members, splitting up to cover more ground.

The elite disciples were now busy, while many ordinary disciples remained in place. As the Immortal Sect Grand Tournament hadn’t officially ended, they were waiting for the Sect Master of Azure Wings Sect to announce the new champion.

Although “Ye Wenxin’s” sword intent had indeed intimidated everyone at the time, her overall performance in the tournament spoke for itself.

Especially during the duel with Xi Mengxuan from Beast Taming Garden, her mastery of the Sword Qi Technique left an indelible impression.

“Alright, let’s put this matter to rest. Once we capture the escaped demon sect disciple, the truth will be revealed…”

The Sect Master of Azure Wings Sect smiled at the sensible disciples and then gave a meaningful glance at the Cave Master of Broken Dragon Cave.

The Cave Master looked even more dissatisfied and retorted, “I’ve long heard that the Sect Master of Azure Wings Sect is exceptionally protective of his disciples. Witnessing it today, it’s truly extraordinary.”

“Hahaha, that’s a flattering view from the Martial World. If I don’t protect my disciples, who will? Don’t you agree, Cave Master of Broken Dragon Cave?” The Sect master laughed brightly.

It was impossible for the Azure Wings Sect to prosper so much without the likes of Fairy Fengya. On the other hand, it was also due to the Sect Master’s efforts that the Azure Wings Sect had been maintained so well.

The Cave Master of Broken Dragon Cave fell silent, somewhat intimidated by what Ye Wenxin had said earlier. He feared that Ye Wenxin might have truly seen through something, and thus chose not to dig his own grave any further.

Watching the Cave Master quiet down, the Sect Master of Azure Wings Sect’s gaze once again shifted to Ye Wenxin below the platform.

“Ye Wenxin, you are now the champion of this year’s Immortal Sect Grand Tournament. Normally, the champion would only receive a cultivation method manual, but considering you killed a demon cultivator, I will grant your wish, as long as it’s not excessive,” said the Sect Master, displaying the authority of a sect leader. He stroked his beard with a smile, as if already knowing what Ye Wenxin wanted.

Ye Wenxin bowed politely, then said, “I respectfully request for Zhu Jiangyou to be made an inner disciple.”

The crowd was stunned, not knowing who she was referring to.

Only Fatty, who had been carried over to watch the tournament, was dumbfounded; he knew it was his name, but he never imagined that his Big Sister would secure such a great benefit for him.

However, Fatty misunderstood. Ye Wenxin made this request because she did not want to become Fairy Fengya’s true disciple.

Although she had been tempted, she was aware that it was actually Fairy Fengya who had competed throughout the tournament, while she had merely been a spectator.

Even though Ye Wenxin became the champion, it brought her no real benefit. On the contrary, becoming Fairy Fengya’s new true disciple would attract excessive attention again.

She much preferred to pique Fairy Fengya’s curiosity, knowing that in this world, the most beautiful things were those that remained out of reach.

Therefore, Ye Wenxin was determined not to let Fairy Fengya achieve her goal of publicly announcing her as a disciple. Now that Fairy Fengya had resumed her own identity, Ye Wenxin was convinced she wouldn’t turn back for her!

Seeing the confusion on everyone’s faces, Ye Wenxin proceeded to introduce Fatty in detail. Fatty blushed, embarrassed by Ye Wenxin’s praise, yet he still felt self-conscious.

Little did he know that he had received some luck from Gu Aotian, and with a bit of effort, he could live a peaceful life, even if he didn’t end up with a harem.

This was Ye Wenxin’s way of thanking him for helping her humiliate Su Mei. Furthermore, integrating a Cozy Gang member into the inner disciple circle could give them more stability and strength.

“As you wish,” the Sect Master said, feeling even more surprised but readily agreeing since it was such a small request. He waited for Ye Wenxin to make her second request.

“That’s it. You can give me the manual now,” Ye Wenxin declared, ending her wish list, causing an uproar in the audience.

Everyone thought Ye Wenxin was an idiot for giving up such a great opportunity for better wishes, but Ye Wenxin merely scoffed at them.

She had once owned half the country and had seen all kinds of rare treasures; even if she wanted something, the small Azure Wings Sect might not be able to provide it.

“That’s it? Hahaha… Wenxin, you truly have great spirit!” The Sect Master laughed heartily, increasingly impressed by Ye Wenxin’s attitude.

But thinking carefully, even if Ye Wenxin had requested to become Fairy Fengya’s true disciple, while he could agree on behalf of Fairy Fengya, he could never persuade someone so devoted to cultivation.

“Wait a moment, Sect Master, I have one more announcement to make.” Hall of Teaching’s Elder Jin Xiaoqin suddenly spoke up.

The Sect Master, knowing that Gu Xiangsi had a good relationship with Ye Wenxin, wasn’t surprised by Jin Xiaoqin’s sudden interjection.

Moreover, Jin Xiaoqin was not only experienced and powerful, but also in charge of the Hall of Teaching. The Sect Master nodded in agreement.

Although Jin Xiaoqin had no good impression of Ye Wenxin and preferred the disciple named Ye Meijing, she thought of her own disciple Gu Xiangsi and decided to speak up.

“Ye Wenxin, are you willing to become my second true disciple?”

The audience was once again in an uproar, while Ye Wenxin showed a wry smile, feeling that these people had become addicted to taking her as a disciple.
