Master's Chief Disciple

Chapter 113 Beiyao Continent

A few people entered the hall and saw that the master was receiving a banquet. A few unfamiliar people were sitting in the hall looking at them and said in unison, "Greetings, Master!"

Seeing that all the disciples trained by the sect had reached a good level of cultivation, Feng Yichen smiled and responded, "Since you have come out of retreat, please take a seat."

One of them was Zhong Siyao whom they knew. She was wearing a long red and white embroidered dress and looked very beautiful.

Zhong Siyao asked Wen Qi and Gao Moqiu to sit next to her, "Here, hey!"

After everyone was seated, a few strangers discussed Xia Kui and the others who had just arrived, "The disciples of this sect master are so amazing."

"With such beauty, if you don't know her, you would think she is a fairy from heaven."

"The male cultivators here are too attractive."

"The strong immortal aura emanating from them means their cultivation is definitely not low."

At this time, another woman walked in from outside the hall. At first glance, it was Mu Huayan. She attracted everyone's attention as soon as she appeared.

Then the strangers started to discuss again, "This fairy should be the chief disciple of Master Feng!"

"There are probably not many people with such a beautiful appearance in the entire metaverse."

"Since she is the chief disciple, her cultivation must be no lower than that group of people just now."

Han Qixi also came in with Mu Huayan. Everyone only felt spiritual power from him, and there was no trace of demonic power leaking out.

Seeing this, Wen Qi asked Han Qixi to sit next to him, and Mu Huayan sat in the first seat on the right, next to Han Qixi.

Sitting on the left and right sides of Feng Yichen were four elders, namely Duan Qiuran, Ye Manli, Wu Xiwen, and Jiang Zilin.

Wen Qi saw Zhong Siyao was also here, maybe she knew something, "Who are these people?"

Zhong Siyao approached him and whispered, "The first person on the left is our Cangyun City Lord, Gu Lan. The next ones are Cangyun City's guardian Song Qianqian and the high priest Jiang Che. The remaining five are Cangyun City's entourage, and I don't know them either."

Wen Qi nodded repeatedly after hearing this, and then Feng Yichen introduced them to the disciples present one by one.

"I've heard of the reputation of the Shenyang Tianzong for a long time. Today I see that it is indeed well-deserved." said a handsome man in a red silk robe.

"Thank you for the compliment, City Lord Gu." Feng Yichen said.

"The sect master's disciples are all so highly skilled. I wonder if you could allow me to pick one or two of them to go back to the city with me to fight the enemy?" Gu Lan went straight to the point, and his eyes fell on Mu Huayan and Han Qixi.

The disciples present rolled their eyes when they heard this, and some secretly said, "Where do you think this is? You are allowed to choose!!"

"How can this person be so shameless? He really treats this place as his own home."

"If the Master and the elders weren't here, I would have beaten you so hard that even your ancestors wouldn't have recognized you."

Feng Yichen ignored his words and said, "In this battle of Cangyun City, our sect will definitely arrange disciples to go and defend against the enemy. City Lord Gu can rest assured."

"But Feng is confused, why would the demon tribe attack your Cangyun City?"

Gu Lan's expression was a little stiff after hearing this. Feng Yichen saw that he didn't reply, so he continued, "Cang Yun City is located in Bei Yao Continent. Let's not talk about Cang Yun City first. The independent cultivators of Bei Yao Continent alone are enough to resist the enemy. Why do they have to come all the way to our sect for help?"

Gu Lan's heart trembled when he heard this. He clenched his fists in his sleeves, but still smiled and said, "Master Feng, you don't know that the demons have frequently attacked Beiyao Continent in recent years, causing more than half of the independent cultivators in Beiyao Continent to die. The remaining independent cultivators were unable to resist the attacks of the demons, so they fled everywhere or hid in my Cangyun City. Although my Cangyun City also has many cultivators, they can't resist the million-strong army of the demons."

When Gu Lan said this, his bodyguard Song Qianqian kept pulling at his clothes, but he ignored her.

"Based on my investigation of Beiyao Continent, it is not as miserable as City Lord Gu said. There are four cities in Beiyao Continent, in addition to your Cangyun City, there are Molan City, Ziyou City, and Tianyuan City."

"Why? The great Beiyao Continent still needs a sect like me to protect it?"

Gu Lan's face became more embarrassed after hearing this. He then picked up the wine on the table and drank it all, then put it down with a snap. "Since Sect Master Feng is unwilling to help, I will not force you."

After saying that, he was about to get up and leave. Feng Yichen did not try to persuade him to stay, "Go ahead!"

Gu Lan angrily shook his sleeves and walked out the door, but was stopped by Song Qianqian, "City Lord, why don't you tell the truth? This is our only lifeline."

The woman was wearing a long blue and white dress. She was tall and had an outstanding appearance.

But Gu Lan still insisted on shaking off Song Qianqian's pull, but Song Qianqian turned around and asked Feng Yichen for peace, "Master Feng, I am Song Qianqian, the guardian of Cangyun City. The other three cities in Beiyao Continent have been occupied by the monsters. Only Cangyun City still has the strength to fight against the monsters, but we are just a spent force and can't hold on for too long. I beg Master Feng to send someone to protect us."

Zhong Siyao couldn't help but stand up in shock when she heard this, "What! Those three cities were breached so easily?"

"Hey, you can't be that serious." Wen Qi said in a low voice.

Zhong Siyao laughed awkwardly twice and sat down, "Sorry, you guys continue."

But Feng Yichen still didn't say anything, and kept sitting there playing chess with Jiang Zilin. The high priest Jiang Che beside him couldn't sit still anymore, so he stood up and cursed, "I think the first major sect in the entire Yuanjie is just a name in vain."

Jiang Zilin, who was standing by, thought he was being noisy, so he picked up a black chess piece and placed it on top of Jiang Che's head. This pressure made him breathless, and he was about to kneel down. The guardian Song Qianqian stepped forward and bowed, saying, "The high priest offended me just now. Please forgive me, Sect Master. Qianqian will apologize to everyone present on his behalf."

Feng Yichen ignored them and continued playing chess. After half an hour, Gu Lan still didn't tell the truth, so Feng Yichen and Jiang Zilin left the place. Before leaving, they said coldly, "Xiaoya, get out!"

Seeing that all hope was gone, Song Qianqian's legs went limp and she sat on the ground with an expression of despair and loss on her face.

Mu Xi and the others also left the scene. Xiao Ya came over and said to Song Qianqian, "Miss Song, please."

Song Qianqian thought to herself, "No, my friends are still fighting hard against the enemy in Cangyun City, I can't give up."

So he stepped forward and grabbed Mu Huayan who was about to leave, "Fairy sister, please save Cangyun City."

Mu Huayan looked embarrassed, but after a moment she pushed her hand away and said, "Without Master's order, I cannot make a decision on my own."

Song Qianqian fell to the ground, curled up her body and looked at the sky with empty eyes, "Miss Song..."

Mu Huayan held Xiaoya and shook her head, "Xiaoya."

Before leaving, Mu Huayan left a message, "Master just gave your city master a chance, but he didn't say a word."

Two days later, disciples passing by saw Song Qianqian sitting outside the main hall. She just sat there, staring blankly at the sky, while Gu Lan had been lingering at the gate of Shenyangtian Sect and had not left. The high priest Jiang Che was leaning against a big tree outside the sect. Both of them were waiting for Gu Lan to tell the truth, but they didn't know what the truth was.

"Master, Elder Jiang, Miss Song has been sitting outside the main hall and has not left." Xiaoya said when she came to serve tea.

Jiang Zilin paused while playing chess and said, "It's okay. Just send her some tea and food every day."

"Then City Lord Gu is really ruthless. He uses an entire city as a bet." Jiang Zilin continued.

Feng Yichen remained silent as usual, and it was almost always the King of Hell who was muttering in a mysterious way.

Two days later, Gu Lan, who was outside the sect, could no longer sit still. He was extremely panicked and said, "Let me in to see your sect leader. Let me in."

The disciples outside the gate stopped him from entering. At this time, Feng Yichen's voice came, "As long as City Lord Gu is willing to confess, our Shenyang Tianzong will naturally be willing to send people to protect him. Otherwise, City Lord Gu's city will really be lost."

"Please let me in, Master Feng. I will tell you the truth."

"Let them in!"

Upon hearing this, all the disciples made way for him.

This time, there were only Feng Yichen, Jiang Zilin, and Mu Huayan in the hall.

"What? You don't dare to speak? Do you need me to start for you?" Jiang Zilin said unhappily.

"I planned to defeat the other three cities in Beiyao Continent at the hands of the demons. It was because of me that they lost the three cities..."

Song Qianqian and Jiang Che, who were outside the door, heard this and ran in excitedly and yelled at him, "Why! Why did you do this?"

"What hatred do those three cities have against you that you would destroy them so cruelly."

Jiang Che grabbed him by the collar and started to curse him before punching him in the face several times, "Are you still worthy of being the lord of a city?! Gu Lan! You beast! Scum!"

Gu Lan remained silent in the face of these curses and fists until Feng Yichen spoke up to break the scene, "What is the purpose of destroying those three cities!!"

Gu Lan thought he could just get away with it, but Feng Yichen was so hard to fool. Jiang Zilin said, "I really admire City Lord Gu's ability. He destroyed three cities by himself. Tsk, no, in other words, this is called killing with a borrowed knife!"

When Gu Lan heard these words, he pretended to be calm, but he was actually very flustered. Seeing that he didn't say anything else, Feng Yichen and others didn't say anything more either.

Seeing Gu Lan trembling and walking out of the hall, Jiang Zilin's next words frightened him greatly, "City Master Gu, your Cangyun City is not simple. If our disciples suffer any harm there, our Sect Master Feng will not be merciful."

Jiang Zilin deliberately emphasized the three words "City Lord Gu". Gu Lan hurriedly knelt down and said in panic, "Little one, no, no, I will never let them suffer any grievances and will treat them well."

Gu Lan's action confirmed Feng Yichen and Jiang Zilin's guess. With his demeanor and momentum, he was definitely not Gu Lan himself, but just an impersonation. However, Feng Yichen did not expose him. He wanted to play the long game and catch a big fish.

"Mu Huayan, take a few disciples with you to Cangyun City for support. Remember not to be careless." Feng Yichen said.

At this time, Duan Qiuran walked in and said, "Sect Master, the group from Cangyun City is in danger, so one more person is needed to look after them."

Feng Yichen, who was playing chess, thought to himself, "This kid is quite clever. If he wants to go with Mu Huayan, he should just say no directly, instead of beating around the bush."

"Yes, it's settled!"

Duan Qiuran took the order and glanced at Mu Huayan before leaving. Then she was about to leave but was stopped by Feng Yichen, "Mu Huayan, stay. Your master has something to tell you."

After saying that, he put away the chessboard and winked at the King of Hell. He understood and said, "I wonder what's going on with the Black and White Impermanence. I have to go check it out."

After hearing these words, Duan Qiuran quickened his pace and left the place, with a lonely look on his face.

Feng Yichen said nothing, but took out a magic weapon from his ring and handed it to her, "This is the god-level magic weapon, the Ice Phoenix Bracelet."

Before Mu Huayan could touch the magic weapon, it attached itself to her wrist as if it had recognized its master, and then disappeared.

Mu Huayan raised her eyes and found that Feng Yichen had left the place. "You gave me the Qingli Phoenix Hairpin before, and now you give me the Bingfeng Bracelet..."

After she finished muttering, she finally understood the meaning of it. She felt a little happy for some reason, but she didn't understand why he left after giving her the gift.

In fact, Feng Yichen had to leave because he noticed some unusual movements of the stars in Ziheng Mountain.
