Chapter 600 Watched by All Parties (2/2)
And on the North Sea Dragon Subduing Hall’s side was a young man with bare arms who was wielding a red-and-gold staff. He was Ning Zhan.
The six people who had come to the Shengzhou continent together and joined the six great sects were all present except for Zhou Yuan and Luluo.
They simply nodded when they met each other’s gazes, but they did not exchange greetings.
“Even if the Cangxuan Sect is going to suffer, the Sacred Palace most likely won't fare much better,” a woman's voice sounded. She was one of the chief disciples from the Hundred Flowers Fairy Palace. From her voice one could tell she bore malice towards the Sacred Palace. Her group had also received a letter from Tang Xiaoyan notifying them that the Sacred Palace had attacked their Hundred Flowers Fairy Palace.
Liu Fu curled his lips and said, “I heard that a Cangxuan Sect chief disciple named Zhou Yuan had killed two chief disciples from the Sacred Palace? How true is this rumour? I have never even heard of the name Zhou Yuan before.”
On the Hundred Flowers Fairy Palace’s side, Zuoqiu Qingyu raised her long, beautiful brows. She slowly lifted her head to say, “The gentleman of the Heavenly Ghost Sect is wrong. The disciples of our Hundred Flowers Fairy Palace witnessed Zhou Yuan kill the Sacred Palace's third ranked chief disciple.”
Although she wasn’t a chief disciple, as a personal disciple of the Hundred Flowers Fairy Palace's sect master, her status was not considered low within the Hundred Flowers Fairy Palace. Thus, she did not fear Liu Fu in the slightest.
Liu Fu gave a slight smile. “Is that so? Seems like he has some strength, but he stirred up some trouble and made others suffer because of him. It seems that Zhou Yuan isn’t that impressive. He must have used some underhanded method or shameful tactic to win. It was nothing but a lucky victory.”
He swept his eyes over the courtyard not far away and remarked, “With eight chief disciples from the Sacred Palace gathered, they seem to be unwilling to let the matter go. Perhaps Zhou Yuan already knows, and that’s why he does not dare to show himself today.
“I really pity the other chief disciples from the Cangxuan Sect, especially Chen Ze of the Hongya Peak, whose arm was ripped off.”
The disciples of the other sects also nodded slightly in agreement. They were not familiar with Zhou Yuan; however, from their perspective, it was indeed wrong that Zhou Yuan’s fellow disciples had to suffer because of the trouble he had caused.
The most important thing was that Zhou Yuan, who had started everything, had still not shown up. It was inevitable for others to think that he was afraid of the power of the eight chief disciples from the Sacred Palace.
“Zhou Yuan is the number one person of our generation in the Cangmang continent. He is not the kind of person Liu Fu says he is. According to my understanding, if he knows about this, he will definitely come,” a voice suddenly sounded.
Many gazes shifted to the young man with a black cloth wrapped around his eyes on the Sword Seeker Sect’s side.
Having been refuted three or four times, Liu Fu acted a bit irritated. Face dark, he stared at the chief disciple from the Sword Seeker Sect and asked, “When did the disciples of the Sword Seeker Sect become so unruly?”
The chief disciple chuckled, “Junior brother Li is not a chief disciple, but he is the first non-Chosen of our Sword Seeker Sect in a hundred years that has been allowed to practice the sword in the sword prison, so chief disciple Liu Fu shouldn’t think of him as an ordinary disciple.”
Liu Fu's expression abruptly changed. He naturally knew that only the Chosen could enter the Sword Seeker Sect's sword prison. It was a place filled with fierce and sharp sword Qi—so sharp that it reached the bone. It was unbearable for chief disciples, but the blind man in front of him could practice in such a place?
“The Cangmang continent is a remote and desolate place, but there are still some talents.” Liu Fu's eyes were icy cold. When he glanced at Zhen Xu's expressionless face, hatred filled his heart. It was because Zhen Xu was also from the Cangmang continent and was now thought of highly in the Heavenly Ghost Sect.
Hearing the sarcasm in his voice, Zuoqiu Qingyu and Ning Zhan both looked at him coldly.
But Liu Fu didn't care; he just snorted and shifted his attention to the courtyard. “Hmph, I really want to see if the remarkable person you talked about dares to show himself today.
“Moreover...”
The corner of his lips curved in a ruminative smile. He thought, even if that Zhou Yuan dares to show up, there is no way he can escape unscathed. So this, for Zhou Yuan, is a hopeless situation.
