Chapter 352
The Liu Sisters have been sent back to the Liu House?” Yun Jiuge was aghast when she heard the news.
Why would they be sent back when all was going well? Moreover, they were potential talents who had gone through the Secret Realm experience.
“These are Elder Mo Hua’s orders.” Little Fatty sighed and continued, “When the gods are fighting, it’s the mortals who suffer. The disciples at Number Two Peak are not faring well too. We’re facing rejection everywhere, and they deliberately make things difficult for us when on a mission.”
Luckily, Bing Xinlian and he were both shielded by someone within the Sect so they were slightly better off. As for the normal disciples, they were the ones getting the brunt of it. But they were more united now than ever.
“Well it seems like Elder Mo Hua and Elder Bai Gu have both given this a lot of thought!” Yun Jiuge chuckled coldly.
She knew that the two Elders hated her, but not to this extent of even punishing the little disciples at Number Two Peak.
She reckoned that they did this to rouse resentment amongst the disciples of Number Two Peak so that everyone would put the blame on her for their bad situation.
Once the disciples of Number Two Peak joined as Inner Disciples, they would definitely put their heart and mind into going against her. By then her life would no longer be peaceful.
The good thing was that Yun Jiuge did not plan on staying in the Yin Corpse Sect forever.
“Actually, we have been secretly discussing it at Number Two Peak. We will not go to Mo Hua or Bai Gu’s Peak, and Qiu Ren’s Peak isn’t much better. So we’ve decided to enter the Sect Leader’s Peak with you,” Little Fatty told Yun Jiuge cautiously.
“Are you certain it isn’t actually you who wants to come?” Yun Jiuge narrowed her eyes at Little Fatty.
Since this fellow had an uncle who was a Steward at the Sect Leader’s Peak, surely he must have wanted to come to the Sect Leader’s Peak.
Truthfully, the Sect Leader’s Peak was too desolate, and it was easy to tell how it was about to fall apart. If Little Fatty were to bring in such a large number of disciples now, what things in the future be? There was uncertainty but this move would be beneficial to Little Fatty.
“I’m definitely coming over, but it’s all thanks to Senior Yun Jiu that I managed to convince them all.” Little Fatty giggled.
Yun Jiuge’s performance at the Secret Realm did not need further explanation. Needless to say, she was calm and resourceful. But more importantly, she was selfless, bonding all the Low-rank Disciples together as one instead of using them as ammunition.
The disciples at Number Two Peak felt that they would definitely have a better life if they followed her, better than being mistreated by other disciples from other peaks.
“Cut the crap! You say that it’s on my account, but I think it’s more like on his account.” Yun Jiuge raised her finger and pointed to her left.
Zi Shang happily played along by appearing from the shadows before slowly going back to hiding again.
Little Fatty’s eyes brightened for a moment, excited to the point that he stuttered, “Th-that’s your own Life’s Origin Yin Corpse?”
“Yup, a thousand-year-old one,” Yun Jiuge gladly added on.
Little Fatty got even more excited. A thousand-year-old Living Corpse was a heavenly treasure that could go head-to-head with the three Elders!
The Yin Corpse Sect was established for so many years, yet only three people had gained a Yin Corpse and eventually became persons of substance.
Senior Yun Jiu was still so young and had already arrived at such an amazing stage. His future seemed limitless, so mixing with him was definitely the right choice.
Yun Jiuge waited until Little Fatty had enough excitement, then asked unhappily, “Why does your uncle always go against me?”
“No no, this is just the type of person my uncle is. He’s also like that to me,” Little Fatty immediately denied, afraid that this would cause friction with his future boss.
“He also treats you like that? Hmm, I thought you guys were pretty close!” Yun Jiuge began to fish for information.
“Before I was born, my uncle had already been travelling and only came back to see us two years ago. Later on, he said that I had good aptitude and brought me into the Yin Corpse Sect. Normally, other than plying some information from him for trading, we rarely communicate,” Little Fatty said truthfully.
Yun Jiuge recalled Jin Chuan’s gloomy personality as well as his annoyingly serious expression. She could not see how he fit into the persona of a guy passionate about trading news, unless he had an ulterior motive.
Little Fatty did not want to discuss his uncle anymore and switched topics asking, “Oh yes, Senior Yun Jiu, I heard that you cured Senior Youyue?”
“Yes, I did!” Jiuge smiled and said inadvertently, “Your uncle spoke to me about this before too, it seems like he’s very interested in Senior Youyue! The both of them look quite compatible together anyway.”
“Haha, Senior Yun Jiu, please don’t make such jokes. How could my uncle be interested in Sister Youyue? He hates flirtatious, shameless women the most!” Little Fatty laughed out loud, because every time Si Youyue took in a male pet, his uncle would glare at them murderously.
“Thank god your uncle didn’t get into Hehuan Sect, otherwise, he would have been angered to death by now!” Yun Jiuge laughed as well. For him to use his body to help a poisoned woman he hated, Jin Chuan must be hiding something.
“Exactly!” Little Fatty also found his uncle weird. Even though he was in a Black Magic Sect, he expected the female disciples to keep themselves pure and pristine. Was it not a violation of the Sect rules!
Yun Jiuge chatted a little more with Little Fatty and saw him off once she had extracted information about the time the Liu sisters were sent back and the path they took.
“You want to save those two sisters?” asked Zi Shang, who had been listening in by Yun Jiuge’s side.
“After all, I was the one who dragged them down. So if I can save them, I will definitely do so!” Indeed, Yun Jiuge wanted to save the Liu sisters.
“Alright.” As long as Yun Jiuge wanted something, he would be happy to oblige, even if it was such a small matter.
At dusk, the dim sunlight washed over the land. On a rugged and steep mountain road, a horse carriage adorned with Spiritual Sealing Amulets sped through.
A small, thin sallow- skinned old driver with white sideburns flicked the whip from time to time, directing the unicorn spirit horse to change direction.
Beside the carriage were two sturdy middle aged full-fledged cultivators. They were all specially dispatched by the Liu Family to bring the Liu sisters back.
The short and pudgy one with brows arching down was Liu Yongfu.
The tall one with an intelligent looking face was called Liu Yonggui.
“The sky’s almost dark, quickly find a place to rest!” Liu Yongfu moved to beside the old driver riding the spiritual horse and shouted loudly.
“Master said that we have to try our best to rush home within five days!” The old driver replied awkwardly.
If they didn’t travel during the night, there would definitely be a few days of delay and no way they could make it home in time.
“Are you silly or what? Master only said to ‘try’, and not ‘must’. We’ll just give an excuse by then,” Liu Yongfu said frustratingly. His cultivation was five stages higher than the old driver so he had no respect for him at all.
The old driver was still somewhat hesitant.
Then, Liu Yonggui went up and advised, “Old Man Tie, listening to us is the right choice. Once we find a good place to settle down, we will let you enjoy yourself first.”
“Enjoy?” The old driver looked lost as he could not understand what there was to enjoy on this barren land.
“Silly man, don’t you get it yet?” Liu Yongfu pointed to the carriage with the Spiritual Sealing Amulets and said lecherously, “There’ll be two stunners here for you to play with, won’t it be enjoyment?”
The old driver was shocked and said immediately, “But these are our family’s eldest miss and second miss!”
