Chapter 1359: Master Is Here
Editor: Atlas Studios
“Sect Master—”
“Sect Master—”
A disciple of the Walkabout Sect cried out. He could no longer control the anger in his heart and surged forward.
A female disciple said indignantly, “Fight these beasts! Avenge the sect master!”
The young disciple at the side shouted angrily, “That’s right! Fight them to the death! At most, we’ll die! From the day we entered the Walkabout Sect, we’ve long disregarded life and death!”
Tears fell from Wei Ran’s eyes. She held the token in her hand tightly and roared in a choked voice, “All of you… stop!”
Everyone looked at her angrily.
Wei Ran wiped her tears and turned to look at everyone. With red and swollen eyes, she raised the token in her hand. “I, Yu Weiran, will take over as the Walkabout Sect’s… 27th… Sect Master!”
Her back was facing the Five Poison Sect’s Sect Master and the others. Her voice was choked, but it was also filled with immense grief and determination!
That was Senior Sister Wei Ran…
Her heart ached too…
The tsunami-like sadness drowned the disciples of the Walkabout Sect. Everyone’s hearts were like knives.
Seeing this, the few sect masters frowned in unison.
They were not pitying the disciples of the Walkabout Sect, but worried about the Ghost Concubine, who was lying in a pool of blood.
The new City Lord did not say that he wanted to kill her.
If she died just like that…
“Sect Master Doro.”
The Sect Master of the Seven Absolutes Sect said, “Don’t tell me you killed her? This was done by you alone. Don’t drag us down with you.”
The leader of the Sea Sand Gang said, “That’s right. We’ve been saying that enough is enough. When everyone stopped, she still had at least 50% of her combat strength.”
As one of Xiahou Yi’s earliest trusted aides, the Five Poison Sect’s Sect Master believed that he was valued more by the new City Lord.
He disdained everyone’s evasion and said shamelessly, “If you’re timid, you can leave first! At most, I’ll bring her back to the City Lord Manor alone!”
That wouldn’t do!
If she didn’t die and he brought her to see the new City Lord alone, wouldn’t the credit be his alone?
Everyone had their own thoughts and did not say anything else.
The Five Poison Sect’s Sect Master calmly came to the Ghost Concubine’s side, raised the dirty sole of his shoe, and stepped on Ghost Concubine’s face. “Hmph, get up if you’re not dead! Otherwise, I’ll kill your disciples! I’ll kill one with a shout!”
Yu Weiran said angrily, “Didn’t you agree that as long as my master resigns from the position of Sect Master, you won’t kill the disciples of the Walkabout Sect?”
The Five Poison Sect Master mocked, “They agreed. I didn’t.”
Yu Weiran flew into a rage out of humiliation. “You…”
The Five Poison Sect’s Sect Master said, “One!”
Before he could finish, a melodious sound of a zither suddenly came from behind everyone.
In this murderous world, it was like a gentle breeze and drizzle. It was so clean that it seemed to be able to cleanse one’s soul.
Everyone fell silent. Even time seemed to have stopped.
A pleasant man’s voice sounded casually. “There are so many men bullying a seriously injured woman. How shameless.”
The expressions of the sect masters darkened, especially the Five Poison Sect’s Sect Master.
He turned away coldly.
The others also turned around. In order not to block their sect master’s vision, the people in the middle consciously moved aside.
Everyone saw a dazzling carriage.
There was no coachman.
There were a total of three horses.
The leader was a black horse with a shining mane.
The people on the island did not know much about horses. If they were asked to recognize fish, they would recognize them.
Sihu raised its head valiantly.
As an energetic big food horse, not only did Sihu occupy the entire mountain, but it also included the Fire Slaughter Sect and the Walkabout Sect into its territory.
The route was quite familiar.
However, Sihu did not like to go to the Fire Slaughter Sect.
Every time it went there, it felt that the disciples there were like hungry ghosts reincarnated, staring at him and drooling.
When the Sihu saw the Ghost Concubine lying on the ground, it hurriedly shook off the harness on its body and rushed towards her.
The leader of the Sea Sand Gang said, “It’s someone from the Hundred Flowers Palace!”
The Sect Master of the Seven Absolutes Sect reminded, “Move!”
The Hall Master of the Arhat Hall looked at the horse running towards him, raised his fist, and suddenly smashed it at Sihu!
Clang!
The sound of the zither suddenly rose. The ears of the Arhat Hall master hurt, and his head felt like it had been pierced by a silver needle. It was so painful that he hugged his head!
Sihu ran over and dusted him off!
The others were not much better. The zither music just now pierced through everyone’s minds and everyone felt the pain of piercing their heads.
Only the Walkabout Sect disciples guarding the entrance of the Walkabout Sect, who were the furthest away, were not seriously affected.
However, those with high internal strength, like Yu Wei Ran, felt a little uncomfortable.
Ling Yun sat behind the curtain and stroked the zither as he said casually, “Since the Ghost Concubine is no longer a member of the Walkabout Sect, this matter has nothing to do with the Walkabout Sect. I advise you to close the door and return to your rooms. Don’t come out to watch the commotion!”
Yu Weiran looked deeply at Ling Yun and finally at her master. She said to everyone, “Return to the Walkabout Sect!”
The disciples of the Walkabout Sect retreated.
“Senior Sister… Sect Master!”
A young disciple asked, “We…”
Yu Weiran said seriously, “Didn’t you hear what Yun Lin said? Go back to your rooms and close the door!”
The Five Poison Sect’s Sect Master looked coldly at the carriage and looked through the golden bead curtain at Yun Lin, who was playing the zither. “Young Palace Lord Yun, you dare to barge into the tiger’s den alone. I respect you as a man. On account that you’re of the Xiahou family’s bloodline, I advise you to scram back to your Hundred Flowers Palace obediently, hide, and don’t cause trouble! After all, you’re no longer the successor of the City Lord Manor!”
Ling Yun said, “In that case, since my father is dead, I should be the City Lord. Why is it Xiahou Yi’s turn?”
The Sect Master of the Seven Absolutes Sect berated, “Shut up! Don’t insult the new City Lord!”
In the past, everyone was afraid of Ling Yun because he had Xiahou Qing’s support.
With Xiahou Qing dead, the new City Lord would not spoil the little b.a.s.t.a.r.d of the Hundred Flowers Palace.
Ling Yun said arrogantly, “Not only will I insult him, but I’ll also kill him.”
The Five Poison Sect’s Sect Master said coldly, “Little kid, you’re not capable, but you’re quite arrogant!”
Ling Yun said calmly, “That’s still better than you. There are no more than two types. You used them all to take advantage of others. You’re simply embarra.s.sing yourself. If I were your Luo family’s ancestor, I wouldn’t even be able to suppress my coffin!”
The Ghost Concubine had once embarra.s.sed the Five Poison Sect’s Sect Master in public in the martial arts compet.i.tion.
This had always been a thorn in the Five Poison Sect’s Sect Master’s heart.
He was already angry enough, but he was now humiliated by Ling Yun’s poisonous tongue.
The Five Poison Sect’s Sect Master was so angry that his face turned green!
The leader of the Sea Sand Gang spoke. His att.i.tude was still polite. “Young Palace Lord Yun, the Ghost Concubine is a wanted criminal. Please don’t make things difficult for us.”
Ling Yun pointed at the Ghost Concubine, who was protected by Sihu. He fiddled with the strings with one hand. “She’s the master I just acknowledged not long ago. Since you injured her, stay!”
With that, his left hand landed and he hooked the strings with his fingertips. The melodious sound of the zither suddenly changed!
Everyone felt an explosion of pain in their minds, and then their minds went blank right on the heels of that.
The surroundings suddenly fell silent. A distant, distorted, and unreal shout could be heard.
Something hot splashed on their face.
Something cold hit their shoulders.
“No—to—”
It was a distorted and distorted voice.
Boom!
The fists of the Hall Master of the Arhat Hall smashed into the Sect Master of the Five Poisons Sect and the Sect Master of the Seven Absolutes Sect.
The latter two instantly regained their consciousness. They looked around and saw that all the disciples had lost their minds and were killing each other under the control of the zither.
The leader of the Sea Sand Gang and the other sect masters had also fallen into “deviation”.
The three of them hurriedly woke them up with their internal strength.
The disciples he brought today could not be saved. Resisting the zither killer consumed a lot of internal strength. If there was any mistake, they might go berserk again.
The Hall Master of the Arhat Hall made a prompt decision. “Let’s go! Leave this place quickly!”
The Five Poison Sect’s Sect Master said, “I’m indignant!”
The Sect Master of the Seven Green Sect advised, “Save your life first! Sect Master Doro!”
He looked back at the Ghost Concubine in the pool of blood. The strong and young horse was licking her cheek, trying to wake her.
Occasionally, a few disciples who had fallen into madness would rush over and be knocked away by it domineeringly!
A trace of viciousness flashed across the Five Poison Sect’s Sect Master’s eyes. He pinched three poisonous needles and shot them ruthlessly at Sihu!
