Chapter 214 A Fierce Fight
Lan Yue was very interested in this suggestion, after all, this person was the pinnacle of the cultivation world!
Although her master is indeed very powerful, her master's master must be even more powerful! If she can get on the good side of him, she won't be afraid to announce her name when fighting in the future!
From now on, if you get into a fight, just shout, "My master is the Supreme Elder of the Southern Spirit Sect! If you're not convinced, I'll have my master beat you into submission!" Wouldn't that be cool?
At this moment, the Supreme Elder was still unaware of what this clever little devil was thinking about that would make him lose face again. Instead, he was extremely enthusiastic and distributed all the little trinkets he had found in the Futian Secret Realm.
"These are just trinket trinkets, not worth mentioning!" The Supreme Elder said very modestly.
However, the elders around could tell that the item their master had taken out was worth more than a top-grade spiritual artifact and could be classified as a spiritual treasure.
Above spiritual artifacts are spiritual treasures, which even some ordinary grandmaster-level weapon refiners might not be able to create!
Moreover, what kind of place is the Futian Secret Realm? This is the legendary place where immortals fell, and what you find here must be ancient spiritual treasures!
Ancient spiritual treasures are even rarer, and are priceless and unavailable throughout the entire cultivation world!
So what did Master say? They're all just trinket? Is he already impatient to steal their apprentices?
They simply didn't want to admit that this was their master.
The Fifth Elder hurriedly sent a message to his Ninth Junior Brother, Guangji, telling him not to hide outside with the Sect Master and to come back first, otherwise their daughter and disciple would be lost!
The elders were filled with doubt and uncertainty. Before they could come up with a solution, they saw Lan Yue's eyes sparkling, as if she wanted to say something.
Oh no! This little guy is actually interested!
Before they could stop them, they suddenly heard a violent coughing sound outside the door, along with the sound of a cane slamming hard on the ground.
"You old man Xu, how dare you abduct my two grandsons right in front of me! How dare you commit such a heinous act!"
The insect shaman walked over angrily, coughing as he did so, his old face flushed red with rage.
He finally managed to confirm that the twins were his lost grandsons, but when he happily came to find them, he heard something unexpected.
This old man actually tried to kidnap his beloved grandson and granddaughter!
The Supreme Elder on the other side was stunned, and even the group of youngsters below looked surprised.
Especially the twin brother and sister, who still haven't reacted, staring blankly at the figure of the insect witch.
"You two have suffered all these years. That damned Wujin, he was the one who wanted to marry into our Insect Valley, but he dared to do such a thing and even stole you two away!"
As the insect shaman explained the reason for the two little ones' disappearance, tears streamed down his face.
After all these years, he has finally found the person!
Although he didn't use bloodline secret techniques to confirm it, the auras of the two little guys in front of him were so familiar that he couldn't possibly not recognize them.
"You are... my maternal grandfather?" Wu Tianya's body trembled.
Wu Tianyu, on the other hand, was perched behind her sister's shoulder, peeking out with her head slightly.
"That's not right. Father clearly said before that my maternal grandfather was just an ordinary person who accidentally stepped into a cesspool and died."
The words sounded so familiar that everyone instinctively looked over.
Even the Second Elder was surprised and uncertain. For a moment, he thought Lan Yue was just gossiping again. Otherwise, how could there be such a bizarre death as stepping into a latrine?
Wu Tianya muttered to herself, while the insect shaman opposite her twitched at the corner of his mouth. He coughed even more violently, and anyone who didn't know better would think he was about to collapse.
Wu Tianya realized that what she said was somewhat inappropriate, but she was too shocked before and often listened to Lan Yue gossip, so she didn't have any taboos and just said it directly.
Now Wu Tianya was filled with regret. She shouldn't have brought this up. Her grandfather must have searched for them for a long time, but they believed the other person had fallen into the latrine. How unfilial they were!
"Grandfather, I…" Wu Tianya's face was a little pale.
"Children, don't blame yourselves. This is all the fault of your damned father. It's not your fault. You have always been your grandfather's grandchildren!"
What grandson and granddaughter? That Wujin married into the family; this is his own grandson!
"It is because your grandfather failed to protect you that you have suffered so much for no reason," the old worm shaman said, his voice choked with emotion.
When he realized that the twins were his grandsons, he learned about the general situation from the other elders of the Nanling Sect.
Knowing that the two children had a very difficult past and had been hunted down by many people in the Western Regions, they fled to the Southern Regions and were rescued by the elders of the Southern Spirit Sect.
He would always remember the kindness shown to him by the Southern Spirit Sect! If it weren't for the elder who saved the children, he couldn't even imagine what would have happened to his two grandsons.
The twins opposite the old shaman were deeply moved by what he said, and their eyes welled up with tears.
They did struggle for a long time in the clutches of their so-called father before finally finding a chance to escape. However, they never expected that their father's new wife would never let them go and directly hired someone to kill them, asking a powerful force in the Western Regions to come and hunt them down.
They had almost given up hope of the world, but they never expected to come to the Southern Spirit Sect, meet such warm companions, and have such a loving master.
"Good children, come back with Grandpa after the competition. I'll definitely make sure to give you a good meal." The old man was still crying.
However, the twins opposite them hesitated. They had already decided where they would go for training after the inter-domain competition.
Now that he's suddenly going back, he'll probably have a hard time seeing these friends again.
Seeing his two grandsons hesitate, the old shaman opposite him felt a buzzing in his mind, almost causing it to explode.
"Old Xu, was it you? Did you secretly say something to my two grandsons?" Old Chong was furious. He felt that his two grandsons disagreed because of this old man. He was enraged.
"It really wasn't me."
The Supreme Elder was quite helpless. He hadn't done anything at all, and he had only been here for a short time. He had only just said that he was taking on a disciple. He couldn't possibly put all the blame on him, could he?
He's completely innocent! If the two little ones really became his disciples, he'd be willing to accept it, but right now he hasn't even gotten a single apprentice yet, and this old man has ruined everything!
"I don't care, it's definitely you, you old bastard, prepare to die!" The insect witch charged straight at him.
Two figures at the pinnacle of the cultivation world started fighting, and the surrounding area was instantly plunged into darkness, with sand and stones flying and insects chirping.
Even the twins were stunned. They hadn't said anything yet! Grandpa, wait! That's not how it is!
They were about to rush over when they were pulled back by the other elders of the Southern Spirit Sect.
"Wu Tianya, Wu Tianyu, you two little ones, don't be anxious. Don't be fooled by the fact that Senior Insect Witch and my master are fighting fiercely, looking like they're about to fight to the death. Actually, this is just normal communication between the two of them," the Sixth Elder said with a helpless smile.
This is how the two old people have communicated all these years; they can fight over anything, and they've gotten used to it.
"If they fight for three days and three nights, maybe everything will be fine," the Fifth Elder said with a smile.
He was thinking that three days and three nights would be the minimum; the Supreme Elder had once fought with the Insect Witch for a whole month.
However, since the Insect Witch had two grandsons present this time, he felt that the other party should restrain themselves.
"Don't worry, just go about your business. The final competition is in a few days. Let me give you a heads-up, this competition might show you the real battlefield."
The Second Elder also offered words of comfort.
The little ones were finally relieved, especially the twins, who breathed a sigh of relief.
"Wait, seeing a real battlefield, you don't mean we'll have to lead an army to deploy troops, do you?" Li Bai directly accepted a similar task, but back then he intervened to stabilize the order around the Southern Spirit Sect. Now it seems that the competition between the North and South regions will also involve this kind of battlefield?
The second elder on the other side remained silent, because he couldn't explain things clearly until the match officially began.
"You little ones should get some rest, especially Lan Yue. Don't stay up late these nights, go to bed early and get enough energy."
"Although meditation can also induce sleep, the body's true repair still requires sleep." The older the Second Elder got, the more he understood this principle.
Now he has started to focus on health and takes naps every day.
Lan Yue, on the other hand, was somewhat surprised. How did the Second Elder know that she stayed up all night every day?
She was clearly just eating melon seeds by herself—no, she was secretly eating melon seeds with Yin Xue!
