The Emperor of the Three Realms

chapter 113

Purple Sun Sect' – this name is a legendary existence of the sixteen kingdom alliance.    

The hidden sects were very mysterious in the eyes of the common kingdoms, and were sacred places that were sorely missed by others. If an ordinary practitioner could attract the attention of a hidden sect, then he would definitely become immortal, and the people nearby could also partake in his success.    

There was no shortage of hidden sects within the sixteen kingdoms alliance. But there are four that are considered the strongest – and the Purple Sun Sect is one of them.    

On this day, the sunlight had just shone on the holy place of the Purple Sun Sect.    

The surface of the water as smooth as a mirror presents an infinite view. It glittered as ripples moved across it, giving off a majestic feeling of purity to others.    

The lake is called Shuiyue Lake. There were interconnected islands within the lake, scattered everywhere like stars in the sky, or pawns on the chessboard. This was the place where the Shuiyue bloodline of the Purple Sun Sect was located.    

A gentle light enveloped Shuiyue Lake as good air surrounded the islands.    

At this moment, inside the jewel hall somewhere deep within the island, there was the headquarters of the operation of Master Shuiyue—    

A plaque was hung on the large door, marking the entrance to the hall. The word “Shuiyue” is engraved in it in the style of Chinese calligraphy used as a seal. It was majestic and majestic, with an artistic feeling about it.    

Inside the hall, Chu Xinghan stood with his hands hanging by his side, while Yu Jie and Long Juxue stood to his right. They all lowered their heads and looked down. No one dared to speak.    

A woman was sitting cross-legged on the lotus throne in front of them. She looked to be around thirty years old; her face was graceful, and a refined atmosphere could be found in her luxury.    

Except, when his eyes of justice opened slightly, those eyes were suffused with a shocking power as well as awe the one who saw it.    

“Xinghan, once again discuss the details of this issue from start to finish, and leave nothing behind. Yu Jie and Juxue, you two listen as well. You should fill the void if senior brother Xinghan misses any part.”    

The woman on the lotus throne was clearly Master Shuiyue.    

Chu Xinghan nodded, while thinking about everything he had in mind once again. He then took a deep breath, and carefully explained in detail everything that happened at the Second Crossing.    

Chu Xinghan specifically conveyed the words of the mysterious expert – he delivered without leaving a single word. He described everything as a whole and did not dare to make the slightest mistake.    

After Chu Xinghan finished, Master Shuiyue faintly raised her eyebrows, and looked at Yu Jie and Long Juxue, clearly seeking their affirmation.    

“Esteemed master, senior brother Xinghan has been meticulous enough. That was how the mysterious expert spoke. Jiang Chen was indeed very arrogant. He had not respected Master Shuiyue's bloodline since the beginning.” Yu Jie gritted his teeth with anger directed at Jiang Chen as he recalled the battle.    

“Omong blank like this need not be pronounced.” Master Shuiyue snorted softly. He was also very dissatisfied with Yu Jie's inability to finish things.    

If Yu Jie was able to handle this matter firmly and cleanly, Chu Xinghan might not need to make a move, and perhaps even that mysterious expert would not be able to arrive on the scene in time.    

Of course, this is just a hypothesis.    

When he considered the situation as a whole, Master Shuiyue was completely disappointed by Yu Jie's incompetence.    

At the core of it all, Master Shuiyue was a highly biased person and protected flaws and mistakes. He already knew of the dispute between Jiang Chen and Long Juxue. With his biased personality, he would definitely attack on behalf of Long Juxue.    

Although Chu Xinghan had delivered the mysterious expert's tone of voice seriously, but Master Shuiyue was proud and alone her entire life. Who has he ever been afraid of?    

How could he possibly turn a blind eye to his disciple's matter just because of some threatening words?    

“Xueer, the strange phenomenon of heaven and earth triggered when you were born. What does this mean? That means you are a talented martial dao genius. In the end, the martial dao practitioners of our generation must cleanly break the bonds that hinder us. Therefore, if you do not take revenge for your family's grievances, it will surely leave a shadow in your heart and affect your training in the future. Your master will keep this matter of your revenge in my heart.”    

Long Juxue was used to being timid and knew that Master Shuiyue would spoil her. He sobbed a little, slowly. “Xueer has no family or protector now. I can now only rely on my esteemed master to act on my behalf.”    

Master Shuiyue had been practicing for over half her life, and her reputation as a biased person was well-known throughout the sect.    

“Who is this Jiang Chen so that he can force a large Swordbird army to fight for him and not fear death?”    

Even someone as strong as Master Shuiyue was unable to understand the matter. We should know that it is not a matter of having great power to force spirit beasts and fowl into battle.    

There were people who were adept at mobilizing spirit beasts to fight within the sect, but each sect had its own unique method.    

Some utilize written talismans, and others use secret spells or other mysterious control arts. Of course, there were people who used their divine abilities to dominate spirit beasts in order to become their own fighting power.    

But no matter which sect, it was a secret that would not be disseminated.    

Even within the vast Purple Sun Sect, there was hardly anyone who possessed this power. The Purple Sun Sect was almost like a blank piece of paper in the arena of spirit beasts forcing to fight.    

Therefore, Master Shuiyue was rather curious about this Jiang Chen.    

However, even though he was curious, Master Shuiyue still placed more emphasis on Long Juxue's genius. Innate constitutions such as the blue phoenix constitution were also among the few when making general observations about the history of the Purple Sun Sect.    

What does it mean to be born with such a constitution?    

“Xinghan, your master gave you a mission. Investigate Jiang Chen's origin, but remember, don't take action against Jiang Chen.    

Master Shuiyue gave her orders to Chu Xinghan, but after all he was a biased person. He cares about those two. Although he preferred Long Juxue, he could not possibly send Chu Xinghan to his death.    

After all, among his students, Chu Xinghan was still one of the top three geniuses. Since the mysterious elder had spoken, it was highly inappropriate for him to send his disciples to take action against Jiang Chen.    

There would be less doubt as long as they just investigated and did not take action.    

“Xueer.” Master Shuiyue looked towards Long Juxue again. “Although this Jiang Chen knows some unorthodox ways, in the end, his potential is still inferior to yours. Even if he had experienced some unintentional encounters, it was still nothing compared to the constitution you had since birth. You will definitely leave it in eight to ten years.”    

The meaning of Master Shuiyue's words was veiled; what she really wanted to say to Long Juxue was that your “lord would eventually help you get revenge.”    

However, as a master, he could not send another strong disciple to kill Jiang Chen, as this would probably pose a fatal disaster for the other disciples.    

Long Juxue was a smart person and she nodded, “Honored Master, the grudge between Jiang Chen and your disciple is truly irreconcilable. Your students will receive guidance from esteemed teachers starting today and will learn the divine abilities of esteemed teachers. Then it will be as easy as killing a dog when I meet Jiang Chen in the future.    

Master Shuiyue nodded in satisfaction. “You have a built-in constitution, okay. Your potential and understanding are top class. Xue'er, if you kill Jiang Chen through the efforts of others, you will definitely leave a slight stain on your training. This stain might affect you as you upgrade to a higher level in your Martial Path in the future. You have an innate constitution, and your master is far below you in terms of potential. There might even come a day in the future where you claim the highest power rank in the entire Purple Sun Sect, not to mention being the head of the Shuiyue.” bloodline    

Long Juxue slightly thinned her lips and her pretty head leaned slightly. “Xue’er will definitely train diligently in order to fulfill the kindness of the esteemed Master, and get the face of the Shuiyue.” bloodline    

Needless to say, Long Juxue was quite skilled at comprehending the human heart. He knew from Master Shuiyue's words that this esteemed teacher deeply valued Shuiyue's bloodline, and was eager to shine with pride and glory throughout the Purple Sun Sect.    

It was true, Master Shuiyue smiled in satisfaction when she heard those words. “It would be great! I traveled hundreds of kilometers to become the first person to arrive in the Eastern Kingdom to form a teacher and disciple bond with you. This is the action I am most proud of in my life. Xueer, you will train with me from today onwards.”    

Yu Jie, who was listening below, felt a little envious and jealous. We should know that even though he was one of the ten great disciples of the Shuiyue bloodline, it was highly unlikely for him to receive personal guidance from a respectable teacher. It was basically up to him to practice after the master took him in.    

On several occasions she received some pointers from her master, Yue Jie was so excited that she could not sleep for several days.    

Long Juxue's incredible magic was indeed different from the others. The venerable master wanted to keep Long Juxue by his master's side for personal supervision. This was a treatment that even senior brother Chu Xinghan did not enjoy.    

Chu Xinghan was expressionless as he did not feel that there was anything inappropriate here.    

There are thousands of things waiting to be done in the Eastern Kingdom.    

Unknowingly, a month had passed since the Second Crossing battle. The internal turmoil had basically been resolved thanks to the connections and charisma of Princess Gouyu, as well as the assistance of the other dukes.    

Eastern Lu had fallen in the Long family rebellion, and his only son, Eastern Lin had been saved by Jiang Chen. Eastern Lin naturally ascended the throne, becoming the new king of the Eastern Kingdom.    

Further clarity was also slowly given regarding the situation in the capital. The followers of the Duke of Soaring Dragon who deserved to be executed, those who had to be pruned were trimmed down, and those who had to be marginalized were marginalized.    

The Pill King's garden, for example, the spirit medicine power that depended on the duke, disappeared completely from the Eastern Kingdom's historical record. All the members of the Pill King Garden were immediately executed and displayed in public, without exception.    

As for the Hall of Healing, due to the fact that he had been at odds with the Duke of Soaring Dragon before, his position rose higher along with the incoming waves. They were the leading heavyweight players in the kingdom in the spirit medicine market. After this fight, their position once again rose higher and further cemented their position as the leading heavyweight boxer.    

A strong spirit throughout the Hall of Healing and a sense of optimism seeped into the hall.    

However, hallmaster Song Tianxing of the Hall of Healing could not feel happy within him.    

This was because the senior executives of the Hall almost unanimously turned against their own side in the chaos created by the Duke of Soaring Dragon and directed their anger at the third hall master, Qiao Baishi. The immediate consequence of the action was Qiao Baishi's resignation letter.    

There would be none of the three heaven-defying pills without Qiao Baishi. Without those three otherworldly pills, the orders the Hall of Healing had received earlier would be a joke in comparison.    

Although they could cancel the order and return the savings, once a heavyweight spirit medicine company like the Hall of Healing started to return the deposits, the, this means they will face unprecedented attacks on their reputation and public perception.    

Therefore, Song Tianxing could not be happy at all.    

It seemed like the royal family was heavily dependent on the Healing Hall at the moment, but that was because the royal family had just gone through tremendous chaos and suffered a great loss. They need the power of the Hall.    

Speaking alone, if the Hall wanted to expand, they would still have to rely on spirit medicines and various products.    

Without the three spirit medicines of Qiao Baishi, it was almost impossible for the Hall of Healing to expand any wider.    

Song Tianxing deeply regretted his actions and what happened that night. Apart from a few loyal supporters of Qiao Baishi, almost all senior executives had cursed Qiao Baishi, and wanted to hand him over for the Duke of Soaring Dragon's duties.    

Song Tianxing also showed doubt at that moment and did not resolutely support Qiao Baishi.    

The act of misplacing one step results in all of its steps being wrong.
