Chapter 26: 26

In Gengchen Xianfu, in addition to the head family ruled by the Fengshan clan for almost generations, there were eight major palaces of heaven, earth, yin, yang, sun, moon, star, and four seasons. Each palace had several main lines. And there were dozens to hundreds of branches, and countless small branches. Liao Tingyan was a disciple of Clear Sky Valley, a small branch under the main line of Red Maple in the Palace of Four Seasons.

This line of Red Maple had been in the hands of the Xiao family for nearly a thousand years. The elder who provoked Sima Jiao and was killed in the Three Saints Mountain was an older elder in the line of Red Maple. He also belonged to the Xiao family.

“Patriarch, you finally figured it out. You must seek justice for Shiye (grandpa)!” Xiao Huaying knelt down beside the middle-aged man with his eyes closed.

The middle-aged man was Xiao Changlou, the head of the Xiao family. He looked even younger than some of his sons and even grandsons. He had been in closed door cultivation for three hundred years and hit the Mahayana (Saint) realm, but he hadn’t succeeded.

“Just ask for justice?” Xiao Changlou still had a plain tone toward his great-granddaughter. His family was huge, and the number of grandchildren he had were uncountable. It was impossible for him to care about every one of his descendants. Xiao Huaying in front of him was only a teenager he met three hundred years ago before closed door cultivation. After a period of time, he had some impressions of this man.

“Yeah!” Xiao Huaying looked up at him, “Even though the Dao lord Cizang is Shizu, he can’t insult our Red Maple line like this. Shiye went there just to investigate the situation. So how can he be killed? Isn’t this a slap in the face of the Xiao family! Moreover, Shiye had used soul capture once before, so now that he died, he really left us!”

Xiao Changlou stood still, and said lightly, “What about hitting the Xiao family in the face? Just relying on his surname Sima, no one will say anything even if he kills anyone.” 

He glanced at the young child and said in his heart. The Sima clan, the Fengshan clan with only one person left, was truly in decline. From the master of Gengchen Xianfu to the… prisoner.

Xiao Huaying didn’t seem to expect that he would say this. For a moment, he looked a little nervous and said, “But should Shiye’s death be forgotten just like that?”

“I told him long ago that if he has been holding a grudge about the Xiao family member who was madly killed by Sima Jiao five hundred years ago, he will die in his hands sooner or later.” Xiao Changlou waved his hand, “Okay, leave.”

Although Xiao Huaying was still in grief and was unwilling, he didn’t dare to say more, and went on aggrieved.

When he went out, the grievances on his face were swept away and turned into resentment. He had been listening to the legend of the origin of Gengchen Xianfu since he was a child. The Sima clan was almost accompanied by the prosperity of Gengchen Xianfu. He was indeed fearful of the once powerful clan, but after all, he had never experienced the dominance of the Sima clan in previous generations. He was completely unable to understand the tolerant mentality of Patriarch. In his opinion, a powerful master should be at a disadvantage against a big family.

“Go, go to Clear Sky Valley!” Xiao Huaying twisted his eyebrows fiercely, and took his attendants to Clear Sky Valley.

He couldn’t deal with the Dao Lord Cizang, but he could always find someone else to vent her anger. Well-informed people like them, already knew what happened on the Three Saints Mountain. He had already figured out the identity of the only disciple who survived.

The people with some place in the sect and several major palaces all knew that the unpredictable and murderous master was suspected of seeing a female disciple. The female disciple’s cultivation level was low, and her seniority was even lower. She was just an ordinary disciple of Clear Sky Valley. They didn’t dare to see Sima Jiao who had just gone crazy, so they went to Clear Sky Valley.

When Xiao Huaying arrived at Clear Sky Valley, he found that this little branch was very lively, with people coming and going. He even saw Master Zhenxu, the leader of Shi who had a good relationship with Clear Sky Valley. The person was a generation level higher than him. When he was there, Xiao Huaying cursed. He knew that he might not be able to do anything.

This master was also really ridiculous. He was willing to serve the Sima clan, and to this day still assumed a loyal dog posture. Xiao Huaying slandered, the current head of the Shi was actually not in the top position. At first, they were just as servants of the Sima family. Later, there were fewer Sima family members, and only one person was left to toss to maintain the purity of the bloodline. So the head of the original Sima clan was gradually replaced by the Shi clan.

Shi Zhenxu’s face was amiable, but no one would think that such a mighty man really had this attitude towards anyone. The master of Clear Sky Valley, Dong Yang, sat with Shi Zhenxu early in the morning, and the stormy waves in his heart had not subsided for a long time. 

The information wasn’t clear, but Shi Zhenxu told him the current situation. The disciple he accepted stayed by his ancestors’ side. As the saying goes, if one person achieves immortality, even chickens and dogs ascend to heaven.* In this short half-day, so many people had sent gifts, and their quiet place, which was usually not cared for by people, had become the most eye-catching place.

Dong Yang didn’t have much ambition, and his joy was far less than panic.

“Don’t worry, Dong Yang. It’s a good thing that the disciple you taught has this ability. If she can still be with Shizu in the future, Clear Sky Valley will have no worries about the future, or can make Clear Sky Valley directly become a main line.” Shi Zhenxu smiled, “Now Shizu is still on the Three Saints Mountain, I dare not bother you. Maybe the head will take you to visit your disciple with you in a while. You have to do well.”

In his words, there was a sense of support from the head of the family. Dong Yang naturally understood, so he respectfully said, “Yes, Master, Dong Yang understands.” He was really worried.

The four-season’s palace’s Yuan’s line, the eighteenth son of the Yuan family’s, Yuan Zeng, was sitting in the dark room with complex expressions. He sat there pondering for a long time after hearing the news of the Three Saints Mountain. He didn’t expect that the spy he had inserted into the Three Saints Mountain before would have such good luck. There were so many forces in Gengchen Xianfu, so many people were arranged to enter, and in the end only Liao Tingyan he arranged was left, which was really ridiculous.

When Yuan Zeng heard some actions of the head of the family and other palaces, he knew what those people were thinking. Whether it was protecting Sima Jiao on the face or secretly trying to kill Sima Jiao, there was only one purpose, and that was to get the benefits. But he was different, his only purpose was to destroy Gengchen Xianfu.

The most direct way to destroy Gengchen Xianfu was to destroy Sima Jiao. What he had was an advantage that no one had, a woman who made Sima Jiao treat her differently.

Liao Tingyan’s bone-eroding poison would pain her for a day, so she could only obey his control for a day. Even Sima Jiao couldn’t save her.

(If one person achieves immortality, even chickens and dogs ascend to heaven,*- used to refer to people who play dishonest tricks.)
