Chapter 900: Su Youwei’s Grievance!
“We invite Immortal Ye to become the Sword Sect’s sect master to restore the sect!”
Even though there were only nine people from the Ninth Peak, their voices were incredibly loud and clear, and they practically shook the entire Sword Sect.
With them taking the lead, the remaining Sword Sect disciples could not help but kneel to Ye Chen. Even Elder Heaven Sword who survived was no exception.
With the death of Ling Xuanzi and the peak masters of the First Peak to Eighth Peaks, their fear towards Ye Chen had reached an extreme.
Moreover, Ye Chen killing Ling Xuanzi proved that his ability surpassed Ling Xuanzi’s. With this person leading the Sword Sect, they would definitely be stronger than before.
Therefore, in such a situation, how could they not know what to do?
“We invite Immortal Ye to become the Sword Sect’s sect master to restore the sect!”
A dense mass of people knelt on the ground, and their low and thunderous voices converged together at this moment before completely enveloping the entire Sword Sect, causing even heaven and earth to tremble.
Ye Chen scanned the crowd. There was no warmth in his eyes. In reality, he was not interested in the position of the Sword Sect’s sect master at all.
His silence caused the hearts of the people kneeling on the ground to sink, as if the temperature in the surroundings had cooled.
Seemingly having guessed what he was thinking, Ye Wushuang took a deep breath in and chuckled, “Big brother, just be the Sword Sect’s sect master.”
He did not have any feelings towards the Sword Sect, but he was filled with guilt towards the Ninth Peak.
Especially Elder Qing Xuan, who was willing to fall out with the Sword Sect for him. Therefore, Ye Wushuang did not wish to see the Sword Sect being destroyed because of Ling Xuanzi’s death.
Moreover, even if the Ninth Peak left, they would have to establish another sect. Instead of that, it would be better to consolidate the Sword Sect’s resources.
Elder Qing Xuan looked at him gratefully when he heard that. He looked at Ye Chen in anticipation.
Ye Chen finally smiled when he met everyone’s gaze, “To be honest, I’m not interested in the position of Sword Sect’s sect master…”
Elder Qing Xuan’s eyes dimmed immediately. Subsequently, he heard Ye Chen say calmly, “However, if the Sword Sect changes its name to Ninth Peak, I might be interested in taking on the position of peak master!”
“Thank you, Immortal Ye!”
Elder Qing Xuan immediately bowed deeply. How could he not know the meaning behind Ye Chen’s words?
This meant that from now on, there would be no First Peak to the Eighth Peak. There was only the Ninth Peak in the entire Kunlun Ruins. The Ninth Peak would be the Sword Sect, and the Sword Sect would be the Ninth Peak!
“Great, amazing!”
Hua Ling was so excited that she jumped up and down. She hugged Mengmeng again and kissed her on the cheek, “No one will bully our Ninth Peak again!”
Mengmeng looked upset and started punching and kicking her, “Let go of me, woman…”
“The Ninth Peak will be established in three days. By then, I’ll need to trouble Elder Qing Xuan to send an invitation to the sects in Kunlun Ruins!”
Ye Chen flicked his finger and a bottle of medicinal pills shot out immediately. It landed in Elder Qing Xuan’s hand, “These are Regeneration Pills. They can help Elder Qing Xuan recover!”
“Thank you, peak master!”
After Elder Qing Xuan accepted it, he looked at Elder Heaven Sword and asked, “Peak master, what should we do about this person?”
With that, everyone immediately looked at Elder Heaven Sword. He had already been scared out of his wits. He had lost an elder’s majesty.
“Immortal Ye, peak master, s-spare me…”
Elder Heaven Sword’s heart skipped a beat when he met Ye Chen’s gaze. He knelt on the ground without saying anything.
“After the Ninth Peak is established, it’ll lack a guardian. If you’re willing, let me plant a soul restriction on you!”
Ye Chen looked cold, “If you’re not willing…”
Before he could finish, Elder Heaven Sword shuddered and agreed without another word, “Yes, I am willing…”
He was secretly filled with bitterness.
He was, after all, an unparalleled powerhouse. He was also a supreme powerhouse that could suppress an area in the Kunlun Ruins, yet he had been reduced to guarding the sect.
“Release your soul!”
Ye Chen conjured a seal out of thin air. He channeled his True Origin Energy and inscribed a talisman in the air. As his brush moved like a dragon and a snake, a talisman appeared in the air and turned into a soul contract.
“Go!”
Ye Chen pointed at Elder Heaven Sword. The seal turned into a dark gleam and shot into his forehead.
Elder Heaven Sword’s body trembled before a look of fear and despair appeared in his eyes.
To his horror, Ye Chen had forcefully placed a restriction on his soul. To his despair, his life would be in Ye Chen’s hands from now on.
“From now on, no matter if it’s Elder Qing Xuan or the people of the Ninth Peak, seeing him is like seeing me!”
Ye Chen said while standing with his hands behind his back, “If you have any rebellious thoughts, I can make you wish you were dead!”
Plop!
Elder Heaven Sword fell heavily to the ground, his face ashen as he agreed, “This humble one understands!”
After that, Elder Qing Xuan ordered Gu Quan and the rest to start reorganizing the Sword Sect. After everyone dispersed, only a figure stood silently in the distance.
Ye Chen’s expression turned grim when he saw the person’s face clearly. Surprise flashed through his eyes, “Why are you here?”
Who else could it be but Su Youwei?
He did not expect to meet Su Youwei in the Kunlun Ruins. Moreover, she was in the Sword Sect. Su Youwei even had the cultivation base of a master.
Su Youwei’s heart trembled when she met his calm gaze. She clasped her fingers tightly together and said uneasily, “I… I…”
Then, she seemed to feel that she had lost her confidence. She hurriedly took a deep breath in and said, “Where’s my sister? Aren’t you afraid of being scolded by me for bringing Mengmeng to such a place?”
“Your sister…” Ye Chen frowned.
“What happened to my sister?”
Su Youwei’s expression changed immediately, “Ye Chen, make yourself clear. What happened to my sister?”
“It has nothing to do with you!”
Ye Chen could not stand her tone. His gaze turned cold, “If you don’t want to die, stay put!”
With that, he left.
Su Youwei watched him leave silently. Suddenly, she cried, “Why? Why do you treat me like I’m nothing? How did I offend you?”
She suddenly felt wronged!
The first time she met Ye Chen was when she rushed to Tiannan from Yang City. From that moment on, Ye Chen treated her coldly.
In the past, when the Su family was still around, she might have been able to rely on her family background to be arrogant towards Ye Chen.
However, ever since she witnessed Ye Chen destroying the Su family, she was only afraid of him. She dared not be disrespectful anymore!
To her, she had already tried her best not to provoke Ye Chen. She had also changed her arrogant and willful personality. However, Ye Chen still treated her coldly.
“What does my life and death have to do with you? Who do you think you are, Ye Chen?”
She wiped her tears and ran out of the Sword Sect.
