Chapter 794: Done in One Go

3 views 06.03.2025

Shi Qingwu walked quickly, her heart filled with immense worry.

She had left him alone outside, facing a group of elders from the Hundred Refinements Sect...

Especially among them was Sun Zimei, a man of high cultivation and ruthless methods. Dealing with him would be as easy as pie for Sun Zimei.

She knew Sun Zimei all too well. If he wanted to deal with someone, he would surely ruin their reputation and make their life a living hell.

Thinking of this, Shi Qingwu felt a sour taste in her heart.

If that were truly the case, then it would be her fault for bringing this upon him.

Unconsciously, she quickened her pace.

From her secluded chamber to the courtyard where Yi Feng resided, she had to pass by the Hundred Refinements Sect's prison.

She stopped.

She decided to take a look inside.

Given Sun Zimei's methods, it wouldn't be surprising if Yi Feng was already locked up in the prison.

Since she was passing by anyway, it wouldn't hurt to check.

If he was indeed inside, the sooner she got there, the sooner she could alleviate his suffering.

However, as soon as she reached the entrance of the death row, she heard a piercing wail that seemed to tear through the sky.

"Damn you all! Let me out! I'll kill you!!!"

The familiar voice made Shi Qingwu shudder.

Was that... Grand Elder Sun Zimei's voice?

How could that be?

After all, Sun Zimei, as the Grand Elder of the Hundred Refinements Sect, possessed cultivation that was at the pinnacle of the sect. Aside from her, no one in the entire sect could rival him.

How could he be in the death row?

Shi Qingwu moved forward uncertainly, trying to hear more clearly.

But the next moment, a heavy thud silenced the wail.

Shi Qingwu shook her head. She must have misheard.

This death row could hold the wails of anyone, but it was absolutely impossible for it to be Sun Zimei's.

She must have misheard!

Shi Qingwu prepared to continue inside, trying to find any trace of Yi Feng.

However, as soon as she stepped into the death row, before she could take two steps, she saw two figures emerge from around the corner at the end of the corridor.

Upon closer inspection, it was the sect's Fourth Elder and Fifth Elder.

Shi Qingwu frowned, her expression darkening.

After all, the Fourth and Fifth Elders were both Sun Zimei's men!

They had always been at odds with her, and she had suffered many setbacks at their hands.

Now that she had run into them, they would surely cause trouble for her.

Thinking that she might get entangled in their schemes, Shi Qingwu immediately turned to leave.

After all, her top priority now was to find Yi Feng, and she didn't want to be delayed by these people.

Out of the corner of her eye, she noticed that the Fourth and Fifth Elders had also seen her.

Shi Qingwu prepared to summon her strength and vanish on the spot.

But in the next moment, the Fourth and Fifth Elders flashed before her like lightning, kneeling down with a loud "thud"!

"Greetings, Sect Master!!!"

Their booming voices nearly shook the prison roof off.

Shi Qingwu was also startled by the sudden outburst, trembling slightly.

Then, she stared blankly as the two kneeling elders began showering her with concern.

"Sect Master, are you feeling better?"

"How's your health? Did you encounter any issues during your seclusion?"

"Sect Master, your complexion is glowing! Coming out of seclusion, you look even more radiant than a lotus emerging from the water!"

"Exactly! The Sect Master's grace is unparalleled. This seclusion has only enhanced your extraordinary beauty!"

"With the Sect Master here, our Hundred Refinements Sect will surely unite as one and soon ascend to the peak of the Nine Realms!"

Shi Qingwu was completely dumbfounded by their sudden flattery.

She stared at them with a head full of questions.

Weren't these two Sun Zimei's men?

They had never shown her a friendly face before.

What was going on today??

Had they lost their minds??

Shi Qingwu opened her mouth but decided not to ask why they were acting so strangely. Instead, she asked, "Do you know where Yi Feng is?"

Although these two were acting oddly, for Shi Qingwu at this moment, finding Yi Feng was the most important thing.

Upon hearing Shi Qingwu mention Yi Feng, the eyes of the Fourth and Fifth Elders lit up like lasers!

"Of course we know!!!"

Their simultaneous roar nearly shattered the skull of a nearby guard.

After all, at this moment, Yi Feng's courtyard was packed with experts. Not only were there elders from the Hundred Refinements Sect, but even elders from the Tianba Sect's main branch were so numerous that some had been forced to wait outside the courtyard due to lack of space!

As for lower-ranking elders like them, they didn't even have the right to get close!

They had originally come here to vent their anger on Sun Zimei, as it was this guy who had initially put them on the wrong side of Yi Feng.

Unexpectedly, they ran into Shi Qingwu, who had just emerged from seclusion!

"Sect Master, follow us!" The Fourth Elder grinned from ear to ear, bowing respectfully.

Damn, they had really hit the jackpot!

Shi Qingwu followed the two in a daze.

She was completely baffled by their bizarre behavior.

What... was going on?

Had something major happened while she was in seclusion?

As she followed the two, Shi Qingwu's mind was filled with questions.

Before she could figure it out, she had already arrived at the outskirts of Yi Feng's courtyard with the two elders.

However... the area outside Yi Feng's courtyard was now densely packed with people.

Seeing the scene before her, Shi Qingwu froze in place.

Because...

Among these people were not only the sect leaders and high-ranking elders of sects like the Tiansen Gate, Sunset Temple, Tianren Gate, and Baixin Sect—all of equal standing to the Hundred Refinements Sect—but even influential elders from the Tianba Sect...

What... was going on???

Shi Qingwu was completely stunned, frightened out of her wits, and unable to react in time.

Had the Hundred Refinements Sect somehow provoked the hatred of so many sects during her seclusion?

Shi Qingwu trembled with fear, her heart filled with dread.

She opened her mouth to say something, but before she could, the Fourth and Fifth Elders let out a stern shout!

"What are you all staring at?!"

"Our Sect Master is here, make way immediately!!"

As soon as the words left their mouths, Shi Qingwu's heart sank. She was about to scold the Fourth and Fifth Elders!

These two idiots, as elders of the Hundred Refinements Sect, couldn't they recognize the identities of these people?!

If they wanted to die, they shouldn't drag her down with them!

But before Shi Qingwu could speak, the crowd in the courtyard immediately parted, clearing a path for her!

"Greetings, Sect Master Shi!"

Not only did they make way, but they also bowed to her respectfully.

Shi Qingwu rubbed her eyes. Was she hallucinating???

At the same time, the people inside the courtyard heard the commotion and began to emerge.

At the forefront were two ancestors from the Tianba Sect.

Shi Qingwu stopped rubbing her eyes and took a sharp breath, her back stiffening.

Good heavens... why were these two great figures here???

Shi Qingwu was about to bow in greeting, but before she could...

The next moment.

The two Tianba Sect ancestors stood before her.

Under her stunned gaze, they clasped their hands and bowed.

"Greetings, Sect Master Shi."

Done in one go.
