The Sect Leader Who Isn’t Dead?
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
When Feng Yun saw that Bai Ye wanted to have a face-to-face talk, he was still shocked and at a loss. Suddenly, he noticed that there was another person beside him.
“We agreed to talk face to face. Why are you so surprised?” Chu Bai looked at the wind and clouds in front of him. This guy didn’t seem to be used to his teleportation.
“Don’t talk so much. Where have you been? I haven’t seen you for the past few days. Freedom King has already taken over more than half of the territory nearby. Moreover, there were some hidden mineral veins in the mountain that we didn’t find. Now, they all belong to him.”
Feng Yun was also very anxious now because he had already lost a lot of money. He had to recover his funds immediately.
Yan Gexing had directly lost a sect, which meant that he had spent tens of millions to buy a sect for Dugu Wenjian. This was unacceptable to them, so they were very anxious now.
“What’s the big deal? It’s just a loss of something. Actually, it’s not a big deal. If he wants those places, just give them to him. Anyway, the territory is so big.
Can’t we just expand outward?”
Chu Bai opened the map and looked at it. There were still many territories outside. There was no need for them to stay in such a small area. After all, expanding outward was the path of development in the future.
“You make it sound so easy. Now that the internal department is already in chaos and we still have to expand outwards, where would we have enough manpower?” Feng Yun was already in a terrible state. After all, there were too many things in his sect.
“Is that so? What could be happening internally? Alright, alright, we’ll talk next time.”
Chu Bai couldn’t be bothered to continue talking about these things. He turned around and ran to the other side of the sect.
However, when he returned, he realized that something was wrong. The people in the sect did not show any special expressions when they realized that he had returned. Instead, everyone just casually greeted him.
Chu Bai immediately sensed that something was wrong.
“What happened? Let’s go back and take a look first.”
Chu Bai went straight to Casanova, who was dealing with some matters.
“What’s going on now? Why do I feel like the atmosphere in the sect is strange?”
Chu Bai asked.
The Playboy stood there and wiped the sweat off his forehead.” You’re finally back. The Great Elder has been stirring up trouble in the sect for the past two days. He took out all his assets and handed them over to everyone.” “Now, the entire sect listens to the Great Elder. After all, he has already grasped the cultivation methods of many people. To others, the Great Elder is equivalent to their master.”
Casanova quickly explained. After all, everyone had come here to become stronger. They still had some cohesion, but they had more hope in becoming stronger.
Now that the Great Elder could easily increase their strength, these people naturally trusted the Great Elder very much.
“So it’s just a small matter. I thought these people had betrayed me. Since it’s not that big of a deal, there’s nothing to say.”
Chu Bai returned to his room and immediately squatted down to check under the bed.
This was because he had always had an uneasy thought in his heart. When he had fought with the sect master in the Heavenly Water Sacred Land, he had been a little panicked.
Because that scene was too realistic, Chu Bai had once suspected that the sect leader had crawled out from under the bed and resurrected.
Chu Bai laid on the ground and looked under his bed. In the darkness, he saw the sect leader’s corpse lying there quietly, but it looked lifelike, like a living person.
Moreover, the sect leader’s eyes were not closed. Those beautiful eyes were staring at Chu Bai carefully, looking him in the eye.
After Chu Bai and the sect leader looked at each other, Chu Bai even suspected that they weren’t dead. He directly pulled Jun Ling’s shoulders and dragged her out.
After dragging the sect leader out and placing him beside the bed, Chu Bai felt that he was a little perverted, like he was playing with a doll.
However, he still stretched out his finger and placed it under the tip of the sect leader’s nose. He wanted to see if the sect leader was alive or dead and if he was still breathing. After all, he looked too alive.
After Chu Bai placed his hand there, a gentle breeze suddenly blew over, scaring Chu Bai so much that he quickly retracted his hand. When he turned around, he realized that the window wasn’t closed.
“I don’t know who opened my window. I was scared to death.” Chu Bai sorted out his emotions and continued to place his finger there to see if the sect master was alive or dead.
He placed his hand there and felt it carefully. It didn’t seem like he was breathing. However, the moment he pulled his hand back, he suddenly felt another gust of wind.
Chu Bai was so shocked that his entire body was trembling. Could it be that this sect master wasn’t dead?
Because Jun Ling had already taken the poison, it was very likely that she had already died. However, after so many days, her corpse had not disappeared. That was why Chu Bai was very confused about this matter. That was why he was here to observe whether the sect master was dead or not.
However, after the series of actions just now, Chu Bai was a little uncertain.
Chu Bai wasn’t sure if this guy was dead or not.
However, Chu Bai maintained the principle of finishing the blow. He took out his weapon and prepared to slash a few times.
However, Chu Bai waved the weapon in his hand and hacked left and right. After hacking a few times, he realized that he couldn’t damage the corpse.
Jun Ling’s corpse was as hard as a rock, which shocked Chu Bai. After all, his weapon could ignore defense. He didn’t expect the sect master’s corpse to be so hard even after he died.
“This woman can’t have turned into a zombie, right? Only the skin of a zombie can be so hard. Even that person in the Heavenly Water Holy Land couldn’t block it…How can the sect leader block it?”
Chu Bai stuffed the corpse back under the bed in horror. At the same time, he ran to the door and took a few deep breaths. After taking a few breaths of fresh air, he finally calmed down.
“Looks like I still have to go and have a chat with First Elder.”
Chu Bai knew very well that only the Great Elder knew the Sect Leader’s secret. After all, this old fellow had been in the sect for a long time and was very clear about it. It was easy to know if the Sect Leader was dead or not.
The Great Elder was in high spirits in the sect. He was reprimanding his disciples and teaching everyone. When he noticed Chu Bai’s arrival, he quickly shivered.
Thinking back to the few exchanges he had with Chu Bai, the Great Elder was filled with fear. When he thought back to what happened last time, he still had lingering fears.
“Sect Master is here?” First Elder Jin Huang went up to Chu Bai in a fluster. He started to speak to Chu Bai as if he was trying to curry favor with him.
When the other addresses saw this scene, they finally reacted. It seemed that the person the Great Elder was most afraid of was actually Chu Bai..
