Chapter 1599 1602, The Old Woman
In theory, power was above Hong Lei.
Li Qiankun and the others looked at him in awe and greeted him one after another.
“Eh! Why does the person next to that special envoy look like... Xue Yu?”A junior was bowing and bowing, when he suddenly realized that there was a person standing next to the middle-aged man with his hands behind his back.
Looking at him closely, he looked very much like Xue Yu!
Xue Yu was looking down at the people from the Xue family coldly.
Hearing that, Li Yue, who was originally cold, immediately looked up with a hint of surprise on her pretty face.
He had actually returned? And he was accompanying another special envoy!
Hong Lei did not know Xue Yu, and only knew that he was a junior that Tian Zhenyuan knew. He did not care, and said to Tian Zhenyuan, “Special Envoy Tian.”
Tian Zhenyuan asked, “Hong Lei, what happened on this island? Why did the Xue Family Leave empty-handed overnight? As the number eight faction, surely they would not be attacked by some evil enemy and escape overnight, right?”
Hong Lei said casually, “It’s nothing. I persuaded them to leave the Twin Stars Island.”
Eh? Su Yu’s eyes flashed with a cold light as she turned to look at Hong Lei.
Tian Zhenyuan was startled. “Persuaded to leave? What’s your reason for persuading them to leave?”
Hong Lei said, “I can’t gather all the starlight grass.”
Hearing this, Tian Zhenyuan frowned. “The deadline for submitting the Starlight Grass is one month later. You actually persuaded them to leave early?”
Hong Lei curled his lips nonchalantly, “It’s just a small Xue family. What’s the big deal about asking them to leave in advance?”
“How dare you!”Tian Zhenyuan was furious, “What do you want the other factions that trust the Sword Pavilion to think? If they could be expelled without the deadline, who would dare to stay in the Sword Pavilion’s sea area? Collecting the starlight grass on time, neither in advance nor delaying it was the bottom line of the Sword Pavilion!”
“Those who delay the payment of the starlight grass will be expelled!”
“Special envoys who collect the starlight grass early, do you know what the crime is?”
Expulsion of a sect!
In order to prevent the special envoys from abusing their power, the sword pavilion had already set a rule that the special envoys were not allowed to change the collection date without permission. Those who violated the rule would be expelled from the sect.
Hong Lei was displeased. He narrowed his eyes and said, “Special Envoy Tian, these rules are useless. Many of our senior brothers and sisters have tried to blackmail the lower families for benefits, but we haven’t seen how the higher-ups are going to deal with them. Why do you take them so seriously?”
Tian Zhenyuan’s expression was solemn. He took out his communication jade pendant and solemnly entered the information.
“What are you doing?”Hong Lei panicked and asked.
Tian Zhenyuan said, “What do you think?”
“Tian, are you deliberately going against me?”Hong Lei was furious. “Calling you special envoy is for the sake of your master. If you really piss me off, do you believe I won’t tell you to get the hell out of the Sword Pavilion Right Now?”
Tian Zhenyuan said, “With you? Even if your master is the Peak Master of the first sword peak, he did not use all his power to interfere with the appointment and removal of the entire sect, right?”
Hong Lei sneered. “Of course not with my first peak, but what about the young master of the Sword Pavilion?”
With a swoosh, Hong Lei took out a sword-shaped jade pendant with a special snake-shaped mark on it.
Looking at this object, Tian Zhenyuan was shocked. He narrowed his eyes and said, “The young master’s personal jade pendant? This thing rarely leaves young master’s body, why would it be in your hands?”
“Hehe, of course it’s to carry out some special missions for young master!”Hong Lei proudly put it away and said, “What do you think? Do you think I can persuade young master to expel you, a special envoy, from the sect?”
Tian Zhenyuan glared at him, but his finger stopped at the jade tablet and could not continue to type.
This was related to his future. How could he dare to be careless?
His gaze changed for a long time. Tian Zhenyuan turned to Su Yu and said, “I’m sorry, I couldn’t help you.”
His intention to persuade Su Yu to join the sword pavilion was extinguished.
It was good enough that Xue Yu did not hate the sword pavilion. How could he still be willing to join the sword pavilion?
Su Yu said, “It’s okay, as long as you know who it is!”
Su Yu stared at Hong Lei coldly and memorized his face.
“Who is he?”Hong Lei sensed Su Yu’s gaze and threw him an unfriendly look.
Tian Zhenyuan thought for a moment and said, “No one. He’s a friend I met by chance.”
He turned his head and shot Su Yu a look, telling him to leave quickly.
However, how could Li Qiankun, who was below, be willing to let Su Yu, this big trouble, go? He said, “Reporting to special envoy Hong, he’s the second young master of the Xue family, Xue Yu!”
Hong Lei sneered. “No wonder he looks at me like that! Even your father is afraid of me. What does a puny young master like you count for? Get lost!”
Li Qiankun’s face changed. He flew to Hong Lei’s side and transmitted his voice, “Special Envoy Hong, you can’t! This kid has amazing talent. If you let him go, he will be a threat in the future. Why Don’t you take the opportunity...”
He made a gesture of cutting his throat!
Hong Lei thought for a while, he shook his head and said, “If it’s not necessary, it’s best not to move!”! The expulsion of the Xue family had already caused a big impact. If they killed the young master of the Xue family, the other forces would be terrified and leave the Jian Xuan Sea area. I would be a sinner. At that time, the punishment for me would not be to expel the sect. Do you understand?”
“Moreover...”hong lei said disdainfully, “What does talent count for in front of the Jian Xuan Sea Area? “There are more than a hundred forces in the Jian Xuan Sea area. The number of geniuses who are qualified to enter the Jian Xuan Sea area can be counted on one hand. How can he become a Scourge? “You are worrying over nothing!”
Hearing this, Li Qiankun was extremely disappointed. However, when he recalled Su Yu’s amazing potential, he knew that if he was let go this time, he would definitely become a great scourge in the future.
All of a sudden, he looked at his daughter, Li Yue, who was focused on looking at Su Yu. His heart moved and he said, “Special Envoy Hong, you might not know this, but this child is not only a disaster to the Xue family, he is also a disaster to special envoy Hong if he is kept alive!”
“A disaster to me? How Do You Mean?”Hong Lei asked.
Li Qiankun said, “Special Envoy Hong, you might not know this, but this child has been pestering Yue\'er for many years. He has used dirty methods to deceive yue’er many times, and Yue\'er is young and ignorant. She was actually moved by his flowery words. If I did not stop him, I’m afraid that they would have already privately decided on marriage!”
“Is there such a thing?”Hong Lei’s face darkened as he looked at Li Yue.
What made him extremely unhappy was that Li Yue was staring at Xue Yu. Her eyes were filled with a gaze that was different from the other men’s.
Hong Lei recalled that when Li Yue accompanied him these few days, she was often absent-minded and treated him with indifference. He could not help but come to a sudden realization.
No wonder Li Yue would be like this. It turned out that Xue Yu had deceived Li Yue’s heart!
Anger rose from his heart. Killing intent flashed in Hong Lei’s eyes as he stared at Su Yu and said, “Xue, this special envoy is now suspicious of you. You are related to Hua Manlou, the flower picking bandit that Jian Xuan has recently wanted. Come with me!”
As he spoke, he grabbed Su Yu’s shoulder.
Bang --
Tian Zhenyuan attacked angrily and shouted, “Are you crazy?”
“Tian, I advise you to mind your own business. Otherwise, you will be in Big Trouble!”Hong Lei threatened.
Tian Zhenyuan said angrily, “Hong Lei, Think Twice before you act. If you bring bad influence to Jian Xuan, young master won’t be able to protect you!”
Hong Lei was already burning with jealousy, so he naturally wouldn’t listen to his opinion. He spat out a few sword lights in his palm, forcing Tian Zhenyuan back as he said coldly, “Mind your own business?”
At this moment, an old and warm voice drifted over from afar.
“Hehe, this place is still very lively. I just happen to have a question.”
An old woman with white hair rode on a black turtle and came over.
Everyone was stunned. They didn’t know who she was.
However, the aura of a galaxy overlord from her shocked them.
The arrogant Hong Lei also stopped his attacks and looked at the old woman.
“Who is the owner of this place?”The old woman looked at everyone and asked.
Li Qiankun quickly stepped forward and cupped his hands, “I wonder which senior has come to Double Star Island. I Am Li Qiankun!”
The old woman ignored Tian Zhenyuan and Hong Lei and walked towards Li Qiankun, “You are the owner of this place, right? Well, I have something to ask someone. If you can answer, you will be rewarded.”
Hearing that there would be a reward, Li Qiankun was overjoyed.
To be able to get to know an existence at the level of an overlord of the galaxy was already something he could only wish for. To receive a reward again, that would be a pleasant surprise.
He could not help but secretly think that once the Xue family left, the Li family’s luck would turn for the better!
“Please speak, senior. If this junior knows, I will definitely tell you everything I know.”
The old woman nodded, “Alright, this old woman came to Twin Star Island to visit a faction called the Xue family. However, when I went to the Xue family just now, I found that they were all empty. I asked a few ordinary people, but I could not get the gist of it. Since you are the owner of this place, you should know the reason, right?”
While she was speaking, Li Qiankun’s face gradually stiffened. In the end, his face remained as still as a wooden stake.
This overlord of the galaxy was here to pay a visit to the Xue Clan?
The old lady looked at him in astonishment. “You don’t know either?”
Li Qiankun’s face gradually turned pale. He clasped his fist and asked, “May I know if senior and the Xue Clan are...”
The old lady glared at him coldly. “It’s fine. I’m only here to invite a master appraiser to join the constellation Pavilion! Why? Do you have something to hide?”
Upon hearing the words ‘it’s fine’, Li Qiankun heaved a sigh of relief, and his expression softened significantly.
However, upon hearing the latter part of the sentence, it was as if a mountain had suddenly appeared in his heart, suffocating him.
Star Pavilion? How could they not know of the mysterious organization whose name shook the sea of constellations?
Furthermore, this person had specially come here to invite a member of the Xue Clan to join the Star Pavilion. Furthermore, he was the most important appraiser among them!
It was rumored that every single appraiser was an important figure whose name shook an entire region.
Their standing was on par with the clan head of a certain island in the sword pavilion!
And there was such a figure in the Xue Clan!
Cold sweat dripped down from Li Qiankun’s forehead.
The old woman frowned slightly, “I don’t know anything! I’ll ask someone else!”
She looked around and locked her gaze on Hong Lei, “Tell Me.”
Hong Lei’s expression turned slightly ugly, and he subconsciously lowered his head, not knowing what to say.
“What About You?”The old woman raised her brows, looking slightly displeased as she stared at Tian Zhenyuan.
Tian Zhenyuan looked at Hong Lei and sighed, unable to say anything.
“What’s going on with all of you?”The old woman was a little angry. In the end, she locked her gaze on the unremarkable Su Yu who was beside Tian Zhenyuan. “Speak!”
Su Yu looked at her and said, “The Xue family has already been expelled from Twin Star Island. You’re too late.”
After getting the answer, the old woman flicked a small pocket toward Su Yu, which contained ten thousand absolute beginning coins.
10,000 absolute beginning coins? Everyone was shocked. who was this person? He was so generous?
“Why?”The old woman frowned deeply. She had delayed for a while before she set off. She did not expect that the Xue family had already left.
Su Yu said calmly, “The starlight grass is not enough for 100. It has been expelled.”
The old woman was surprised. “Starlight Grass? As far as I know, there is still a month before the deadline. Why is he expelled now?”
After thinking for a moment, the old woman sighed. “I’ll ask Jian Ruxiong later. This sword pavilion is becoming more and more unruly.”
Hearing this, everyone was shocked!
Who was Jian Ruxiong? The founder of the Sword Pavilion was also the current Sword Pavilion Master.
This old woman in front of him actually called Jian Ruxiong by his name!
Tian Zhenyuan said solemnly, “Senior! Please pay attention to your words. The name of the Sword Pavilion Master can not be casually said!”
The old woman was not angry either, the old man smiled. “He is not a good person, but he is good at grooming disciples. At least, he has a few loyal disciples! “However, even if Jian Ruxiong himself is here, he still has to address me respectfully as Lord. So what if I call him by his name?”
