Chaotic Lightning Cultivation Chapter 248-249

Chapter 248: Large Affair

Though the Lightning Eagles were having the upper hand, they were helpless if a YuanYing cultivator really wanted to escape. They could only watch as Old Devil Feng disappeared into the horizon with his Wind movement spell. After the Lightning Eagles chased him for a while, they gave up on the chase and returned to where Lei Shan'er was. What followed after the end of this intense battle, was the ocean's surface littered with countless of feathers and carcasses.

While the battle on the Green Bamboo Island was considered intense, it also can't really be considered to be very intense. After all, they did not make a large commotion on the Green Bamboo Island and quickly left, without anyone being alerted. However, the effects of this battle were extremely huge.

Old Devil Feng's initial intention was to come to the Eastern Ocean stealthily and get rid of SongZhong surreptitiously. Then, he would leave silently, and not make a huge commotion.

However, Old Devil Feng never expected SongZhong to be so difficult to deal with. As such, when they were escaping, there were many cultivators who saw him. At that moment, Old Devil Feng was only concerned with chasing SongZhong and did not silence them.

After what had happened, this news can no longer be kept under wraps. Together with the fact that Mu ZiRong, whom he kidnapped, had an esteemed status, he did not dare to be too unbridled at such a moment. Since he was unable to conceal the information, he can only release Mu ZiRong. As such, Huo ** also found out about this news.

Following which, the Mystical Sky Yard whipped up a commotion in the Eastern Ocean under Huo **'s lead. They had directly presented this matter to the Alliance head of the Eastern Ocean Alliance.

The Eastern Ocean Alliance head was a completed YuanYing stage loose cultivator, called Sectless DongHai. He did not have a sect and was a loose cultivator. Together with the fact that he was powerful and amicable, he was made the Eastern Ocean Alliance Head of the Eastern Ocean.

Of course, as a completed YuanYing cultivator, Sectless DongHai will not have the time to manage the Eastern Ocean Alliance. He would usually be in seclusion, to prepare to assail the FenShen stage. Thus, management of the Eastern Ocean Alliance fell onto the shoulders of the four vice heads.

These four vice heads are the YuanYing cultivators from the various sects. There are two righteous and two devil cultivators. However, they usually were unwilling to manage the mundane affairs of the Eastern Ocean. They rather cultivate bitterly in their own residence. As such, all the affairs in the Eastern Ocean were managed by the JinDan cultivators.

However, such a big commotion had happened this time, which concerns a YuanYing cultivator, Old Devil Feng. The JinDan cultivators would no longer be able to handle such a matter anymore. Thus, Huo ** directly alerted the Eastern Ocean Alliance head and four vice heads.

After they have heard Huo ** and Mu ZiRong's explanation, they were all enraged, criticising Old Devil Feng for being so shameless. Even the two devil YuanYing cultivators also stood on the side of the Mystical Sky Yard. They then rushed to the Green Bamboo Forest, wanting to seek an explanation from Old Devil Feng.

The reason why they would do this is because there's a bottom line to the unspoken rules of the Eastern Ocean Alliance. Old Devil Feng had obviously passed that bottom line this time round. If they did not teach him a lesson, all the YuanYing cultivators from the other sect would probably also come to the Eastern Ocean to kill the elites from the other sects. If that's the case, wouldn't the Eastern Ocean fall into a mess?

If the Eastern Ocean Alliance were to fall into a mess, the number of demonic beasts they kill would also be affected. If the mission of killing the demonic beasts were to be affected, it may possibly result in a demonic beast tide. If the demonic beast tide were to occur, all of the sects in the Vast Mountain, be it devil or righteous, will definitely suffer.

Thus, Old Devil Feng's despicable actions had already upset everyone's interests. As such, all five of them, regardless devil or righteous, to be opposed to his actions.

In fact, Old Devil Feng knew that his actions this time would definitely make him a public enemy. It is just that he hated SongZhong far too much, to the point he was not able to endure it, thus risking such course of actions. But even if this was the case, Old Devil Feng was not willing to blow the matter up, lest troubles find him. Thus, he planned to execute the plan in secret to get rid of SongZhong. Even if the Mystical Sky Yard were to question him in future, he would deny it for sure. While he would still face the ire of the Mystical Sky Yard, he would not be public enemy for sure.  

However, this matter had already exceeded Old Devil Feng's realm of control. While he managed to trick SongZhong, he was unable to kill him and even leaked news out. Old Devil Feng was no idiot either. Seeing how matters had been ruined, he dare not continue to stay in the Eastern Ocean, and had long escaped.

As such, when the authority of five came to the Green Bamboo Island to interrogate Old Devil Feng, all they could find were the remnant JinDan cultivators.

While they were not able to apprehend Old Devil Feng, they still have to get matters straight so they can give the Mystical Sky Yard an explanation.

As such, in the main hall of the Green Bamboo Island, an emergency meeting took place. The head of the meeting was naturally the Eastern Ocean Alliance head, Sectless DongHai. He was an amiable looking old man, easily mistaken for a rich merchant if one does not inspect him carefully.

On the sides of Sectless DongHai were the four vice heads of the Eastern Ocean. To his left were the two devil cultivators, one was a scrawny and cold man like a rock. The other was a fierce looking burly man dressed in robes. To his right were the two righteous cultivators, one male and the other female. The male was a suave and charming middle aged man. However, the female was an old lady holding a walking stick with a dragon's head. Her hair was completely silver and she had a look of viciousness on her face, not resembling a righteous cultivator at all.

Besides the five, there were also Mu ZiRong and a licentious female cultivator from Thousands Desire Sect, called Cui'er. Cui'er is the one in charge of this place.

After sending the unnecessary people away, Sectless DongHai said calmly, "Today, Huo ** from the Mystical Sky Yard is pitting charges against Old Devil Feng from your Thousands Desire Sect for bullying a junior and killing the elite of the Mystical Sky Yard, SongZhong, for no reason. Let me ask you, is this true?"

"This?" Cui'er frowned for a moment before quibbling, "Reporting to seniors, that SongZhong indeed came to the Green Bamboo Island to seek trouble. In the end, he met senior uncle Feng who comes here occasionally. That SongZhong was only taught a lesson by senior Uncle Feng because he was extremely rude!"

"Full of nonsense!" As Huo ** heard that, he scolded, "Old Devil Feng obviously received the news of the Naked Skinning Witch, thus waiting for him there! My poor SongZhong was duped by that witch, thus falling into the trap of the Thousands Desire Sect!"

"Daoist brother Huo!" As Cui'er heard that, she could not help but snicker, "This Green Bamboo Island is the property of my Thousands Desire Sect! Who asked that darn fatty to overestimate himself and come snatch it?"

"Bullshit!" Huo ** scolded, "The Green Bamboo Island is obviously a public property of the Eastern Ocean Alliance. Since when did it belong to your Thousands Desire Sect? My junior nephew received an Eastern Ocean Island Head Warrant because he killed the Black Shark King. If he wants this island, it would belong to him. What rights do you have to chase him away?"

"This~" As Cui'er heard that, she was rendered speechless.

The Thousands Desire Sect was indeed not the legitimate owner of the Green Bamboo Forest. Now that she was in front of the five figures of authority, she was unable to stand on any moral grounds. As such, Cui'er really had nothing to retaliate with.

Being a sharp person, the moment Huo ** saw that Cui'er was speechless, he intensified his argument, "My SongZhong had came to the Eastern Ocean Alliance only for a few months and he had already repelled the Lightning Eagle King away, killed the Black Shark King and saved tens of cultivators. His contributions are extremely outstanding! However, someone with such outstanding contributions did not die in the hands of demonic beasts but was backstabbed by those beasts from the Thousands Desire Sect! Furthermore, it was a YuanYing cultivator who took action personally. He is only a foundational cultivator! This Thousands Desire Sect bullied him with their despicable actions. This is truly infuriating! I plead for justice to be served!"

This sly old fox spoke until tears rolled down, making him seem extremely emotional. As such, the five head and vice heads began to feel empathetic for him.

"Hmph!" Sectless DongHai did not even give Cui'er a chance to reply before asking, "You, speak truthfully, did Old Devil Feng take action personally to deal with SongZhong? Did he, or did he not?"

Now that things have developed to such an extent, Cui'er dare not face the wrath of the few YuanYing cultivators. She could only reply meekly, "He did!"

"Dammit!" As Sectless DongHai heard that, he cursed with rage, "He actually took action personally? This Old Devil Feng is too shameless!"

"That's right, how can he do this?" The male righteous cultivator said with anger.

"Totally despicable!" The only female YuanYing cultivator also scolded, "Old Devil Feng is too despicable, we cannot let him off so easily!"

"Not just Old Devil Feng!" Sectless DongHai pointed at Cui'er and scolded, "Your Thousands Desire Sect as well! You do not have the ability to kill an ambassador from the Eastern Ocean Surveillance Corps and can only backstab others, despicable to the extreme!"

Cui'er was scolded till her neck shrinked in, and dare not retort at all.

Huo ** who was by the side did not forget to fuel the flames. "Alliance head, we can leave punishing them for later. I hope that you will be merciful and save SongZhong first! That poor child, even if he is dead, we should find the complete corpse so we can bury him properly!"

In truth, Huo ** was not concerned with SongZhong's life or death. He just wanted to use SongZhong's death to agitate the five head and vice heads further, so as to secure the greatest benefits for the Mystical Sky Yard. Especially Mu ZiRong, as SongZhong's wife, she should have full claim to SongZhong's entire inheritance. While the rest were negligible, there were only four Eastern Ocean Island Head Warrants. This is something which is related to the possession of a spiritual island. Under such circumstances, if he were to secure the Green Bamboo Island with SongZhong's death, this would be the best!

Chapter 249: Celestial QingYun

Sectless DongHai naturally did not know about Huo **'s scheme. The moment he heard Huo **'s concern for SongZhong, he thought that Huo ** was concerned about his junior. Thus, he looked towards Huo ** with gratification and asked Cui'er, "Speak, where is SongZhong? Is he dead or alive?"

In fact, for those who were present, in their hearts they had already determined that SongZhong was dead for sure. After all, he was only a foundational cultivator. How would it be possible for him to escape from a YuanYing cultivator? In fact, it was already considered extremely surprising for him to escape the Green Bamboo Island.

Under such assumption, Huo ** and Mu ZiRong had readied themselves to start bawling their eyes out the moment Cui'er confirmed SongZhong's death. They must definitely ensure that this matter blows up big.

However, never did Huo ** and Mu ZiRong expect that after Cui'er hesitated for a moment, she gritted her teeth and said, "Reporting to seniors, SongZhong did not die!"

"Ah?" Everyone present exclaimed as they heard that.

Especially Mu ZiRong and Huo **, who were filled with a face of incredulity. As for Mu ZiRong, her heart was raised all the way to her throat as she thought, 'This trouble maker still isn't dead? If he comes back alive, I will definitely be played to death by him just because I abandoned him.'

As Sectless DongHai heard that, he questioned in joy, "Then where is he?"

"Saved by Lightning Eagle King, Lei Shan'er!" Cui'er said carefully.

"En?" As everyone heard that, they gasped in doubt.

As for Sectless DongHai, his eyes widened as he asked in shock, "Lei Shan'er saved SongZhong? Did I hear wrongly? Since when did Lei Shan'er become a kind hearted person?"

"He should have been caught by Lei Shan'er right?" The old lady suddenly said.

"No no no, not caught, saved!" Cui'er quickly explained, "Senior uncle said that just when he was about to capture SongZhong, Lei Shan'er suddenly appeared and attacked him with all her might. Then, she brought SongZhong away. Senior Uncle Feng had personally heard Lei Shan'er call SongZhong 'little highness'. This can be seen as SongZhong isn't a human, but a spy which the Eastern Ocean sent!"

As everyone heard that, they were first stunned before snorting in disdain. Sectless DongHai could not help but laugh coldly, "Little one, who are you trying to fool? If SongZhong is a spy, would he kill the Black Shark King?"

"Huo ** also could not help but laugh coldly, "SongZhong was born in the Mystical Sky Yard and his parents were also from the Mystical Sky Yard. Furthermore, his father was the disciple of our previous sect master and SongZhong was personally named by our previous sect master. If you say that he is a spy from the Eastern Ocean, why not you just accuse everyone in the Mystical Sky Yard for being a spy?"

"This is not the only ridiculous matter!" Another devil YuanYing cultivator added on with a frown, "That SongZhong is only a foundational cultivator, it is impossible for him to escape from a YuanYing cultivator. He is probably killed by Old Devil Feng. Why bother weaving such lies?"

"That's right, even if you guys are going to lie, make a better one. Such explanation of yours is an insult to our intelligence!" Another devil cultivator grumbled.

With everyone present doubting her, Cui'er was helpless at what to do either. Thus, she could only say, "Seniors, this, this is what senior uncle Feng instructed me to say! He is my senior, I will naturally follow whatever he asks me to say!"

As she said that, everyone here understood that even Cui'er herself did not believe what Old Devil Feng said. This was just something far too absurd. In these few thousand years, the demonic beasts from the Eastern Ocean had never sent a spy before. This time, when Old Devil Feng had shamelessly bullied a junior, he also audaciously accused SongZhong of being a spy. Furthermore, SongZhong was someone who had killed an ambassador! Who would ever believe this?

Huo ** could not help but lament bitterly, "Senior, this Thousands Desire Sect is just too despicable! They were obviously the one who secretly launched an ambush. Now, they still want to accuse my dear nephew for being a spy? My goodness, they are just too despicable to the extreme! I hope that senior will bring justice to us all!"

Sectless DongHai was also angered greatly. As he heard that, he replied without hesitation, "Don't worry, justice will definitely be served!"

Sectless DongHai and the four vice heads began to discuss the matter via telepathy. Not too long later, they came to a conclusion and Sectless DongHai announced solemnly, "With regards to the despicable actions of the Thousands Desire Sect. the five of us have discussed and came to a conclusion - The whole Eastern Ocean will brand Old Devil Feng as a wanted criminal. As long as he appears in the Eastern Ocean Alliance, he will be killed on sight!"

As Cui'er heard that, she revealed a bitter smile on her face. In fact, this arrest warrant is not extremely strong. Rather than calling it an arrest warrant, it should be called a restriction warrant. After all, it only prohibits Old Devil Feng from entering the Eastern Ocean. However, the meaning behind this is not small. The moment he is deemed a criminal by the Eastern Ocean Alliance, Old Devil Feng would definitely lose a great deal of face. A cultivator as powerful as himself is most afraid of having his dignity besmirched. Furthermore, it was also as good as the Eastern Ocean Alliance giving him a tight slap.

Of course, just slapping Old Devil Feng isn't enough. Thus, after pausing for a moment, Sectless DongHai continued, "Furthermore, since SongZhong placed his Eastern Ocean Island Head Warrant here, this place would belong to him. Now that he isn't here, this place shall be monitored by his wife, Mu ZiRong. All of you from the Thousands Desire Sect better scram out of here. If anyone of you dares to make a scene here after this, don't blame me for being merciless!"

As Cui'er heard that, she was startled as she lament bitterly in her heart. You have to know, this Green Bamboo Island is not an ordinary spiritual island; whatever the Naked Skinning Witch said was the truth! There were indeed Golden Earth Dragon Vines under this island. Furthermore, they were all extremely old. Thus, this is definitely one of the most precious spiritual island in the Eastern Ocean!

Now, they would have to give such a precious island to the Mystical Sky Yard just like this. Cui'er, being the person in charge, will no longer have a chance to reap any benefits out of this island. It would be a lie to say that she did not feel the heartache.

The problem is, all five head and vice heads were now glaring at her coldly. What could she have done as a mere JinDan cultivator? Furthermore, they were in the wrong and she did not have anything to retort. Helpless, Cui'er could only agree and evict all disciples from the Thousands Desire Sect. Very quickly, the disciples from the Mystical Sky Yard had rushed over to occupy the Green Bamboo Island. As for Mu ZiRong, she was the island's head wife in name. As long as SongZhong does not appear, she would be the owner of this island.

With regards to this ending, Huo ** and Mu ZiRong were extremely satisfied, thanking the five head and vice heads continuously. After they settled the matter, they did not stay any longer and flew away to their respective dwellings. Mu ZiRong would naturally stay on the Green Bamboo Island while Huo ** returned to his own Hundred Flowers Tower to send this piece of news back.

In the inner courts of the Mystical Sky Yard, Daoist HuoLong was in his bedroom with his seventh concubine.

After reading Huo **'s letter, Daoist HuoLong was notified that SongZhong had passed away and Mu ZiRong inherited the Eastern Ocean Island Head Warrant. With regards to this, he was both shocked and elated. He was shocked by the fact that SongZhong died and elated about the great benefits from the Green Bamboo Island. Of course, he was also a little regretful. With regards to SongZhong who rose like a shooting star, Daoist HuoLong actually placed a great deal of importance on him. Now that he's dead, he definitely felt regretful.

But just when Daoist HuoLong was feeling complicated and wanted to go to bed with his concubine, his face tightened as he looked behind to see a black clad figure. This person actually entered his bedroom without making a single sound.

Daoist HuoLong was startled. It must be understood that he was deep within the Mystical Sky Yard, not only was this place full of traps and restrictive spells, there was also the protection of a formation. Together with the patrolling disciples, it was as if he was in a crucible! Just how did this person appear here? Why was Daoist HuoLong not able to notice her with his strength? Only until she intentionally let out her aura, did he realize her presence.

As this unknown person appeared, Daoist HuoLong began to feel nervous. He then hugged his concubine and asked cautiously, "Who are you, why did you barge into the Mystical Sky Yard?"

"It's me!" The sound of a female's voice sounded.

After Daoist HuoLong heard that, he relaxed and replied with a bitter laughter, "So it was you? Why did you come and find me at such a time, in such a manner? Do you want to scare me to death?"

"It is something urgent!" She said calmly.

"Oh!" As Daoist HuoLong heard that, he frowned, "Something that can make you so anxious is definitely important right?"

"Naturally!" She replied slowly. Then, she turned around and closed the door.

As Daoist HuoLong saw that, he laughed bitterly. Then, he turned to his concubine and said, "Go back and rest, I do not need you to serve me tonight!"

"Yes!" That concubine did not dare to say anything else and left quickly.

After she left, the mysterious person shut the door and formed seals with her hand, laying down a huge restriction on the room to prevent people from eavesdropping.

As Daoist HuoLong saw that, he could not help but laugh bitterly, "Elder sister, at my place, you do not need to be that careful. There will be no one eavesdropping for sure!"

"It's best to be careful!" The mysterious person said that, At the same time, she sat in front of Daoist HuoLong and took off her mask, revealing her beautiful face. If there was someone present who was familiar with her, they would definitely be shocked. Because this person is the elder sister of Daoist HuoLong, the head of the Jade Pearl Pavilion, Celestial QingYun!
