Chapter 56: The Supreme Elder
Chapter 56: The Supreme Elder
When Wu Rong saw Zhu Ling's eyes change, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Very good, at least this seventh-grade elixir can make this bad-tempered sect leader calm down temporarily.
Zhu Ling took a deep breath, barely suppressing the turbulent waves in his heart, and said with a serious face: "Okay, Wu Rong, I will let your grandson go for now. I hope that next time, this kind of thing won't happen again! Humph!"
"But, this pill..."
His eyes were still fixed on the jade bottle in Wu Rong's hand, the fragrance of the elixir, the luster and patterns on the elixir...
Shit, I want it so badly.
Wu Rong looked at Zhu Ling's green eyes and knew that the sect leader had set his eyes on the seventh-grade elixir in his hand.
But he didn't want to give it.
"Master, there is one more matter that requires your decision..."
Wu Rong spoke in time, which instantly dissipated the greed in Zhu Ling's eyes. He cleared his throat and said majestically, "Anything else?"
"That senior's disciple wants to explore the Thousand Swords Hunting Ground."
Zhu Ling's face suddenly turned gloomy.
Thousand Sword Hunting Ground? That was the most precious place for cultivation of Nian Ling Sect. Ever since Nian Ling Sect designated the Thousand Sword Hunting Ground as their own place, no outsider had ever been able to enter it. Even the disciples with weaker talents in the sect were not allowed to enter, let alone the disciples of others.
Zhu Ling's face gradually tensed up, and his tone was slightly regretful. "Alas, this request is not easy to fulfill. Although my Nianling Sect cannot afford to offend such an existence, to let outsiders enter the most secret place of our sect..."
Wu Rong smiled mysteriously and whispered, "That senior is willing to pay a price to allow his disciple to enter."
"Besides, he wants you to come in person so that he can discuss it with you."
"...It's not impossible!"
Zhu Ling smiled instantly.
When he thought about the fact that the senior could casually give away seventh-grade elixirs as sugar pills, how much would he be willing to pay to allow his disciples to enter the Thousand Swords Hunting Ground?
Eighth-grade elixir? Heaven-grade magic weapon?
Thinking of this, Zhu Ling's heart started beating violently!
His breathing became a little faster, but he pretended to be calm and said, "But I still need to discuss this with the First Elder and the Second Elder... Wu Rong, don't tell anyone about this yet!"
After saying that, he turned and was about to leave.
Wu Rong hurriedly stopped him.
"metropolitan..."
His expression was very serious. "Sect Master, that senior lives in seclusion in the city. He deliberately asked you to go there this time. He must not intend to make it public. You also know that the tempers of these secluded masters are a bit... weird."
"It's best not to let a third person know about this. Otherwise, if the news leaks out and something goes wrong, our sect will be in danger..."
No matter why Mr. Gu opened a clinic in Yunling City and treated mortals, since he wanted to do so, it would be better to let him continue to do so, and no one else should disturb him. Otherwise, once the peace is disturbed, the consequences will be absolutely disastrous.
Upon hearing this, Zhu Ling's expression suddenly became serious.
As the leader of a sect, how could he not understand the meaning of Wu Rong's words?
He immediately said, "I know what to do, Third Elder, please relax."
After saying this, he flicked his sleeves and left.
Looking at his departing back, Wu Rong finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"Oh, it was so uncomfortable, I almost suffocated to death!"
Wu Rong wiped the sweat from his forehead and couldn't help but sigh.The aura from Zhu Ling just now was actually pressing down on Wu Rong. After all, he came here to call for punishment. If he didn't show enough aura, wouldn't he have no dignity as a sect leader?
But in the end he saved his grandson's life.
This is no joke, it's according to clan rules.
"However, this time it's really thanks to Mr. Gu. If it weren't for his kindness, I'm afraid this matter would have been a big trouble..." Wu Rong shook his head and turned to go to the sect's medical clinic to see the prodigal grandson who was seriously injured.
On the other hand, after Zhu Ling left in a hurry, he did not immediately go to Yunling City to find the reclusive master.
Instead, he came all the way to the main hall of the Nianling Sect, then went all the way down into the deep palace at the bottom of the hall, and finally came to the deepest secret room.
He opened the stone door.
Inside the secret room, a young man in snow-white clothes and with handsome features was sitting cross-legged on a cushion with his eyes slightly closed, as if he had fallen into a state of cultivation.
Hearing the sound, the man slowly opened his eyes and revealed a faint smile.
"Grand Elder, Sect Master Zhu Ling greets you."
Zhu Ling bowed slowly to the young man with an extremely respectful attitude.
The young man raised his hand and said, "What do you need to see me for?"
"Here's what happened..."
Zhu Ling told him everything about Jiang Wu in detail.
The more he listened, the sharper the look in the Grand Elder's eyes became. After Zhu Ling finished speaking, he snorted coldly, "Humph, that Wu Rong's grandson is really a disaster. He got lucky this time, but if he can't learn his lesson, it's better to kill him as soon as possible."
Zhu Ling said bitterly: "You are right."
"Wu Rong's way of handling this matter is also quite safe. This matter cannot be taken lightly. If used properly, it will be a great opportunity for our Nian Ling Sect!"
The Grand Elder narrowed his eyes, pondered for a moment, and then said, "Just do this for now. Don't rush to see Mr. Gu. Otherwise, it will seem that we, the Nianling Sect, are narrow-minded and short-tempered. Let him know that in order to allow his disciples to enter the Thousand Swords Hunting Ground, we also have to think carefully!"
"Wait three or four days, then you can go!"
Zhu Ling immediately understood what he meant when he heard it, and bowed, saying, "Thank you for your guidance, Grand Elder. I now understand."
Although Wu Rong told him that the fact that there was a hidden master in Yunling City must not be known to anyone else, such a major event must not be hidden from the strongest person in Nianling Sect, that is, the supreme elder who was at the half-step tribulation stage!
If we keep it secret, the consequences will be disastrous!
He had seen this supreme elder get angry.
The Supreme Elder of Nianling Sect has always been alive, and has tried to break through to the Tribulation Stage more than once, but he has always failed.
In fact, it is impossible for a mere three cultivators in the fusion stage to maintain the leading position of Nianling Sect within a radius of thousands of miles. The Supreme Elder is the main force that makes the final decision!
"Actually, this is what I wanted to tell you."
The Grand Elder's expression also became extremely serious at this time. He slowly sat up straight and said, "I will prepare to challenge the Tribulation Stage again soon. I originally thought that this matter might not have much chance of success, but now, there is a chance!"
"Since that senior could even give a seventh-grade elixir to Wu Rong..."
"In exchange for an eighth-grade elixir, his disciples can enter the Thousand Swords Hunting Ground. This is absolutely not a problem!"
"Since it is not convenient for me to come forward, this matter will have to be handled by you."
At the end of his speech, the eyes of the Grand Elder were filled with strong sword intent, as if he could pierce through Zhu Ling with just a glance.
"If this fails, not to mention you... Nianling Sect, I'm afraid it will also decline."
He sighed, as if a heavy burden was weighing on him.
Zhu Ling was puzzled. Before he could ask the reason, the Grand Elder looked at the stone wall and sighed, "The leader of the Wild Blade Sect entered the Tribulation Crossing Stage yesterday!"
