Chapter 40.2: Whose Misfortune
After saying this, Liu Feizhou asked in a calm and composed manner, "Alright, what exactly"s going on?"
There was clearly something off with this old lady. The way she was entrusting him with this matter made it clear that something big had happened. He had to get a clear idea of the situation before deciding whether or not to get involved lest he got wrapped up into some troublesome issue before he even knew it.
"I heard the Supreme Elder say that I can"t leave the Wuliang Sect. I"m not sure what exactly it"s about, but no matter what, I want Xiao Mei to leave first."
Liu Feizhou"s facial color immediately changed when he heard this. He carefully checked the surroundings but didn"t find anything out of the usual. Of course, if the Supreme Elder wanted to spy on them, there was no way Liu Feizhou could sense him with his level of spiritual strength.
"I still don"t know whether it"s a good thing or a bad thing, but regardless, I can"t feel at ease until Xiao Mei is first sent away."
If Liu Feizhou refused, she still had one more bargaining chip.
It was just that this bargaining chip"s risk and price were too great. Just as she was conflicted over pulling it out, Liu Feizhou said, "Isn"t it just a trip to the void sea? Alright, I"ll do it."
He felt uncomfortable seeing the crying expression on this old woman"s face. Her face was ugly from the start, so that scrunched up expression like she was about to cry but was holding herself back made her look unbearable to the sight.
"So when?"
"The sooner the better."
"But there"s still wind over the void sea right now."
"Just leave Wuliang Sect for now. You can bring Xiao Mei over to the void sea and wait for a little while."
Liu Feizhou lifted his brows. "Then how are you going to convince Xiao Mei to leave?"
Su Tingyun tugged up the corners of her lips. "Don"t you have drugs?"
Liu Feizhou: "…"
He suddenly had a feeling that Wei Yun really was going to die. But what did that matter? The opponent was the Wuliang Sect"s Supreme Elder. Anyone that was targeted by him, even he himself and his master, had no chances of survival, so much less Wei Yun.
As they were walking over to find Xiao Mei, something occurred to Liu Feizhou.
"I heard my master mention that the Supreme Elder of Wuliang Sect didn"t have much longer to live." That was why they had been willing to use a large sum to invite Master Dan over so he would refine a life-lengthening pill for the Supreme Elder.
The Wuliang Sect only had this one Crossing Tribulation Stage cultivator. If he died, Wuliang Sect would suffer great damage. During this last few years, due to that mysterious palace"s appearance, the Wuliang Sect was eyed by several powers like it was a piece of fat meat. There had been countless large and small conflicts so they were already a bit weary from dealing with all of this.
As long as Supreme Elder Gu Fengyang was present, the Wuliang Sect will remain one of the seven large cultivating sect. At most, those people only dared to nitpick at issues. They didn"t actually dare to make a move, lest they angered the Crossing Tribulation Stage cultivator and cause themselves to be destroyed. Even if their own Crossing Tribulation Stage cultivator fought as well and won, there"d still be heavy damage. No one was willing to lose eight hundred of their own to kill one thousand enemies.
Liu Feizhou slanted a glance at Old Madame Wei, still confused.
What relationship exactly would the Supreme Elder"s impending death have to do with Old Madame Wei? Even if he was going to possess someone, there was no way he"d pick such a talentless and ugly old woman.
It was very difficult to take over someone else"s body since it was completely going against the nature of the world. In addition, the cultivation level of the body being possessed couldn"t be too different from the cultivation of the primordial spirit, otherwise the body wouldn"t be able to take the pressure of the new spiritual consciousness and would explode. But if the cultivator"s level was pretty much the same, it"d be extremely difficult to take over that person"s body.
Since it was so difficult for possession to succeed, if a person could choose, they"d definitely find a young person with high cultivation level and innate talent whose mentality wasn"t that stable, that way it"d be easy to disturb their mental state and cause their primordial spirit to collapse…
Liu Feizhou looked at the old woman in front of him, then internally remarked, that"s right, it"s have to be a good-looking person. If he took over such an ugly person"s body, he felt that he"d die just from disgust.
In the next second, someone popped up in his mind.
Spiritual Master Lingwu, Su Lijiang.
The Supreme Elder had personally found him in the mortal world and brought him to Wuliang Mountain. He had managed to condense a golden core with seven stripes in just fifty years, so his talent was peerless and his looks were also extraordinarily handsome.
Liu Feizhou was stunned by his own thoughts. He felt cold sweat all over. There was a lot he wanted to say, but he didn"t dare to voice any of it.
