On this day.
An unprecedented scene unfolded above the Azure Cloud Sect.
Sect Master Luo Ze personally wielded his magic sword, hunting down Ye Yu.
Seeing this, some elders immediately stepped forward to inquire whether Ye Yu had engaged in any nefarious activities or colluded with demonic sect.
Luo Ze had only one reply.
“Get lost. This is a personal grudge; don’t interfere!”
Upon hearing this, the elders immediately turned and left.
Oh, it’s a personal grudge.
Then it’s nothing serious.
You all carry on.
However, Luo Ze’s words, overheard by some curious disciples, quickly ignited boundless speculation.
Luo Ze, the esteemed Sect Master of the Azure Cloud Sect, one of the five great sacred lands, held an incredibly lofty status.
What could possibly have happened, to make him disregard all decorum and chase after a disciple?
It must be noted here, the minds of gossipers are exceptionally clear and remarkably creative.
Soon, someone thought of a crucial link between Luo Ze and Ye Yu.
Azure Cloud Sect’s Saintess, Yun Roumu.
She is both Luo Ze’s disciple, and Ye Yu’s Dao companion.
Thus, it’s highly possible that something happened to her, which led to the animosity between Luo Ze and Ye Yu.
But what exactly happened?
Logically speaking.
The exploits of Ye Yu and Yun Roumu had spread throughout the Azure Cloud Sect, yet Luo Ze had never taken any public action.
This implied that Luo Ze might have been supporting their relationship as a couple.
So what could have happened to make Luo Ze so furious?
The only plausible answer might be: the Saintess was mistreated!
That’s right.
Previously, Ye Yu and Yun Roumu were not in the sect.
So they likely went out, and then something occurred.
As of now, this answer seems the most likely to provoke Luo Ze’s anger to this extent.
Upon considering this possibility, the disciples of the Dao Preaching Peak once again began furiously writing.
【The Untold Story of Me and the Saintess 2】, 【The Days Not Cherished】, 【Please Have Mercy, Husband】…
Half an hour later, Luo Ze and Ye Yu finally came to a stop.
Upon learning the full truth, Luo Ze showed no hesitation.
He immediately flashed to the spirit boat above Wuzhi Peak.
Upon seeing Yun Roumu in a black cloak, his expression turned very complicated.
Just as he was about to speak, Yun Roumu quickly made a shushing gesture.
Then she pointed at Xie Muling in the room.
Luo Ze turned to look.
He saw Xie Muling holding a pillow and pressing her face against it, taking deep breaths.
At that moment, Luo Ze was completely stunned.
What is she doing?
Who would hug a pillow and sniff it like that?
Luo Ze transmitted a thought directly: “Disciple, what is she doing?”
“I don’t know either. This is Ye Yu’s room. After he went to find you, Xie Muling rushed in here. She’s been staying here for a long time, constantly… sniffing around.”
“Could she be practicing some cultivation technique?”
Yun Roumu said these words, but even she couldn’t believe it.
But what other explanation could there be?
Luo Ze furrowed his brows tightly.
Silly disciple, which cultivation technique is practiced this way?
It’s obvious there’s something between her and Ye Yu.
In an instant, a love story played out in Luo Ze’s mind: A pair of deeply affectionate Daoist companions.
The man had been away for a long time and, even after returning, hadn’t spent time with her.
The woman couldn’t bear the pain of longing, so she could only smell his scent to ease her yearning.
Bastard! Ye Yu, how could you not even spare your senior sister from the same sect?
Luo Ze’s anger surged once more.
However, he did not disturb Xie Muling.
After all, he couldn’t even manage his own disciple’s feelings. Why interfere with someone else’s?
Luo Ze immediately shook his head.
He led Yun Roumu to the side, used his technique to seal her demon power once again, restoring her to her former appearance.
At that moment, Ye Yu also arrived.
Seeing Yun Roumu’s butterfly wings disappear, he let out a slow sigh of relief.
As expected, Luo Ze had a way to completely seal Yun Roumu’s demon power. This also saved a lot of unnecessary trouble.
But Yun Roumu’s expression was complex.
Her master hadn’t shown any surprise the entire time, so he must have known about her half-demon lineage all along.
But why didn’t he reveal it?
Before Yun Roumu could ask, Luo Ze took the initiative and said to Ye Yu: “You, come with me.”
Ye Yu felt somewhat puzzled.
But he didn’t question Luo Ze in front of Yun Roumu. Instead, he followed him as they flew to a secluded spot.
After they stabilized their positions, Luo Ze set up a soundproof barrier.
He began to recount the story regarding Yun Roumu.
That year, Luo Ze had gone out to visit a friend and encountered Yun Roumu, who was only 5 years old at the time.
She was separated from her family, alone and destitute.
Seeing her exceptional potential, Luo Ze had the thought of taking her in as his disciple.
From then on, Yun Roumu joined the Azure Cloud Sect, becoming Luo Ze’s direct disciple.
After years of careful teaching, Luo Ze was very satisfied with Yun Roumu, even believing that she could one day inherit his legacy.
But when she was 12 years old, Luo Ze suddenly discovered that Yun Roumu was emitting demonic energy.
Upon examining with his spiritual sense, he found out that Yun Roumu was actually a half-demon.
And a very rare type, the Chaos Illusion Butterfly.
Such a bloodline…Even if she were just a half-demon, she would be hunted by all kinds of cultivators.
Because Chaos Illusion Butterflies are too precious and too powerful.
In this situation, Luo Ze considered sending Yun Roumu to the Southern Barbarian Continent, where it would be a haven for the demon race.
But after thinking it over, he ultimately decided against it. Because half-demons, being unique, would easily be ostracized among pure-blooded demon clans.
Luo Ze didn’t want to see Yun Roumu being mistreated.
After all, having been by his side since she was young, he had long considered her as his own.
So after much thought, he decided to use secret techniques and artifacts to completely seal Yun Roumu’s demonic energy.
As long as the artifacts were intact, no one would be able to discern her true identity.
Later on, he even overcame opposition to push Yun Roumu into the position of Saintess.
This was also a means of protecting her. The title of Saintess among the five great sacred lands was quite prestigious.
It commanded respect across the entire Central Continent.
Of course, this didn’t rule out the possibility of crazies like the Blood Demon Sect’s leader, Que Yun.
Though such individuals were rare, they were a real headache when they appeared. It was also puzzling why Que Yun had such a vendetta against Yun Roumu.
Upon hearing this, Ye Yu blinked.
What else could it be?
Que Yun had found someone to deduce Yun Roumu’s true identity and wanted to refine her into a weapon spirit to enhance the quality of his artifact.
Naturally, Ye Yu wasn’t going to say this.
Because once he did, Luo Ze would definitely ask where they had encountered Que Yun and how they had escaped, leading to a whole series of questions.
To keep the system’s secrets safe, Ye Yu naturally kept silent.
Luo Ze sighed and, with a serious expression, said that nearly two hundred years had passed in a flash. He had long regarded Yun Roumu as his own daughter.
So, anyone who dared to bully Yun Roumu would definitely regret it for the rest of their life.
For some reason, when saying this, Luo Ze’s eyes were fixed intensely on Ye Yu. The killing intent was palpable.
It made Ye Yu quite unhappy.
Old Luo, I suspect you’re targeting me!
NICEEE!
