At this moment, Zhu Yushan noticed that Wu Ye did not seem to care about the golden scepter. His face was a little embarrassed.
However, he looked excited after hearing that Wu Ye agreed to let him take back the golden scepter.
“Thank you, senior. If you come to the Great Zhou someday, I’ll definitely welcome you.”
Wu Ye nodded with a smile. Then, he waved his hand and said, “In that case, it’s about time for me to leave. Sect Leader Lu, we’ll meet again if we’re fated.”
As soon as he finished speaking, Wu Ye used his movement technique and finally transformed into a streak of light that headed toward the distant mountains.
After Lu Fang saw Wu Ye’s carefree figure, his expression carried a trace of admiration and respect.
A man at such a young age already had this kind of mentality.
He was unbothered just now when he was faced with such a huge temptation from He Chen’s secret.
How carefree of him.
He was truly an immortal!
“You’re a family member of the Great Zhou Empire, right?”
Lu Fang sized up Zhu Yushan and asked.
Only the Great Zhou Empire had the foundation and resources to be able to reach the early stage of the Nascent Soul Realm at such a young age.
After all, the sects today were no longer the same as they were a thousand years ago. They were gradually declining, and they were nothing to the immortal empire.
“Sect Leader Lu, you have good eyesight. I’m indeed a direct descendant of the imperial family.”
Zhu Yushan replied politely.
“Sect Leader Lu, isn’t that gentleman just now a senior of the Yin Corpse Sect?”
Zhu Yushan asked curiously.
When he had just entered the Yin Corpse Sect, he saw Wu Ye paint the Heavenly Star Talisman in the sky.
It was as if heaven and earth were in Wu Ye’s hands. His strength was simply unfathomable!
“Hehe. If he really is a disciple of the Yin Corpse Sect, I’ll be happy even after my death.” Lu Fang said with a bitter smile while shaking his head.
“Oh, I see…”
Zhu Yushan’s eyes narrowed slightly, flashing with a hint of contemplation.
He was curious about the identity of the mysterious Wu Ye.
When he returned to the Great Zhou, he would definitely investigate this person’s information.
Zhu Yushan did not waste any more time. He put away the golden scepter, thanked Lu Fang, and rushed back to the Great Zhou.
He did not mention the theft of the golden scepter because this matter had to do with the imperial family’s dignity..
Once it was exposed, the Great Zhou’s dignity would be lost. There would also be some bad effects.
Therefore, Zhu Yushan and Lu Fang only nodded their heads slightly. With that, everything was over.
The Yin Corpse Sect began their final purge in the following month.
After all, the Witch Poison Sect had been in the Yin Corpse Sect’s forbidden area for three years, but no one had noticed anything unusual.
This meant that the sect’s internal structure had been completely nibbled away.
Lu Fang’s power had gradually been whittled away.
In the end, Lu Fang still used his formidable strength to purge the entire Yin Corpse Sect.
In this month’s internal strife, some fled while some died.
The Witch Poison Sect existed in name, but in reality, it had died!
However, the subsequent development of this matter was somewhat bizarre.
The surviving members of the Witch Poison Sect who escaped from the Yin Corpse Sect’s secret realm did not have much hatred toward the Yin Corpse Sect. Instead, they began to search for the sign of Wu Ye.
The most exaggerated thing was that those people even thought they were right and made up a set of rumors.
Rumors were flying about Wu Ye’s knowledge of the secret of the treasure map. As a Soul Formation warrior, he wanted to keep this secret treasure inheritance for himself.
The news of the destruction of the Witch Poison Sect caused quite a stir among the demon sects and evil forces.
When they heard that a man suppressed the Yin Corpse Sect with an invincible stance, all the forces expressed their shock.
It should be known that the Yin Corpse Sect had been around for more than a thousand years. Although there had been an internal conflict, it still had a deep foundation and many powerful experts.
The Yin Corpse Sect was especially good at talismans and spells. All kinds of methods were mysterious and unpredictable, which made it difficult for ordinary people to stop them.
However, a young man suppressed this kind of powerful sect alone.
All the forces were guessing the identity of this young man right away.
In particular, the Great Zhou Empire began to investigate Wu Ye’s identity, which made everyone more convinced of the rumors of the Witch Poison Sect.
There were even several sect elders who personally went to the Yin Corpse Sect and asked Lu Fang about Wu Ye’s background.
In this regard, Lu Fang could only smile helplessly.
The reason was that he really did not know the young man’s background.
…
In the meeting hall of the Sword Control Sect.
Zhang Qishan sat at the top, whereas the elders of the Sword Control Sect sat on either side.
“The mysterious treasure map, the mysterious young expert, the Witch Poison Sect, the Yin Corpse Sect, and even the Great Zhou Empire are actually closely connected.”
Zhang Qishan placed the message in his hand on the table and sighed emotionally.
Back then, two black-robed men had barged into the Sword Control Sect’s Black Cave Cliff.
Those two refined corpses were obviously related to the Yin Corpse Sect.
At this point, the matter was crystal clear. Those two people were the Yin Corpse Sect’s traitors and the members of the Witch Poison Sect.
They probably came to the Sword Control Sect for that incomplete treasure map.
However, the two of them suddenly became greedy and wanted to steal a sword master’s corpse.
“It turned from the Yin Spirit Sect a thousand years ago to the Yin Corpse Sect a hundred years ago. It almost became the Witch Poison Sect a few days ago. Despite being a thousand-year-old sect, it has now become so chaotic. It’s really regrettable.”
“I heard that the Witch Poison Sect master, He Chen, even murdered his own grandfather. It’s simply insane.”
“Fortunately, the Witch Poison Sect has already been destroyed. Otherwise, if the Yin Corpse Sect had been taken over by the Witch Poison Sect, the entire Northern Spirit Realm would have been thrown into chaos.”
“But then again, that mysterious cultivator is really powerful. He suppressed the Yin Corpse Sect alone!”
“I heard that even the sect master of the Yin Corpse Sect was guided by him and improved on the talisman technique.”
“I don’t know who that mysterious cultivator is. If I can meet him in my life and discuss with him, I’ll definitely gain a lot.”
The elders discussed one after another.
Zhang Qishan frowned slightly. He was also thinking about the identity of this mysterious cultivator.
Back then, the Ghost Daoist barged into the Sword Control Sect and helped the Blood Soul Demon Master break the seal. In the end, he was killed by a mysterious expert.
A few years ago, the two black-robed men tried to steal the sword master’s corpse, but they were also killed by the mysterious expert.
Were these two things related to the rumored mysterious cultivator?
In the herb garden.
Just as the outside world was speculating about the identity of this mysterious cultivator…
Wu Ye was lying on a bench. He had a sweet-tasting medicinal pill in his mouth and was humming a light tune.
His eyes were slightly closed as he leisurely basked in the sun.
It was as if everything had nothing to do with him.
Wu Ye was not so stupid as to tell the cultivation world that he was the mysterious cultivator.
Was he not happy with such a leisurely and relaxed life now?
To him, cultivating immortality was just relaxing!
He nursed spirit plants every day, practiced alchemy, and strolled around to sign in.
Such a simple life was too comfortable..
