Chapter 580: Coming to the Door
Translator: 549690339
The atmosphere outside Jiang Yi’s cave abode was extremely oppressive.
If Jiang Yi was in seclusion, then Peng Feng and the others would not disturb him.
If he was careless and disturbed Jiang Yi, the consequences could be serious.
Under normal circumstances, the so-called death seclusion could not be interrupted at will. It needed to be completed.
If he was disturbed, there was even the risk of him going berserk.
Although there might not be such a disaster, he had to be wary.
When martial artists were in seclusion, they were often the most vulnerable to being targeted by their enemies. They had to make preparations in advance to be foolproof.
Of course, secrecy was the best protection.
For example, the Chu Emperor Cheng Hui, although there were rumors that he was in seclusion, no one knew his whereabouts.
As long as he was still around, South Chu would be stable, but recently, they had been extremely low-key.
Jiang Yi’s current situation was special. Peng Feng and the others were not sure of his exact situation, so they did not dare to act rashly for the time being.
However, a layer of haze floated in everyone’s hearts.
The main reason for inviting Jiang Yi out of seclusion was to face the threat of the Manhuang tribe leader. If the tribe leader didn’t come, they would be punished for disturbing the Sect Master’s seclusion.
But now, everyone could only hope that the Manhuang Tribe King would not come.
Otherwise, when Jiang Yi was in seclusion, no one in the Ancient Gods Clan could resist the unparalleled might of the Manhuang Tribe King. The three of them retreated helplessly. Tang Yiming hesitated.”Master…” Peng Feng turned to look at him.
“Cult Master, did you have something important to do and left alone without telling anyone?” Tang Yiming asked softly.
When Peng Feng and Hong Biao heard this, they both fell silent.
It was not impossible for him to act in secret under the guise of seclusion.
But the problem was, if that was the case, where was Jiang Yi now?
Other than him, was there anyone else who knew his whereabouts or could contact him?
If Jiang Yi really had a plan, it was normal for him to keep it a secret. But generally speaking, there would always be some backup measures just in case.
For example, now, the threat of the Wilderness was hidden and could arrive at the city at any time.
Was there any way to inform Jiang Yi?
Peng Feng slowly let out a breath of turbid air. ” The current situation is unclear. We can only wait and see. We should pay attention to the movements of the Wilderness and inquire about the whereabouts of Deputy Sect Leader
Chen…” Especially keep an eye on Xie Buxiu, Ning Jiuwei, Su Wei, and Zhang Tianheng.”
After a slight pause, he ordered,”lf the Wildlands make a move, remember to spread the news. If the sect leader is outside, he can know about our situation as soon as possible.”
“Yes.” Tang Yiming and Hong Biao nodded silently.
After returning to the Black Tortoise Hall, Tang Yiming instructed his trusted disciple, “”Summon Black Tortoise 5 to come here.”
After a while, a handsome but dispirited young man with dark circles under his eyes appeared in front of Tang Yiming.”Greetings, Chief.”
“No need to be polite. Take a seat.” Tang Yiming looked at Su Wei in front of him and said in an even voice, “Have you heard the news from the Wilderness?” “I’ve heard of it, but I don’t know the details.” Su Wei nodded.
Ever since he entered the Black Tortoise Hall, he had displayed astonishing talent in internal affairs.
Even Tang Yiming approved of him in private.
After Su Wei entered the Black Tortoise Hall, he didn’t rely on Chen Luoyang to act recklessly. Instead, he was diligent and low-profile. No one could find any fault with him, and everyone had to give him a thumbs up for his job.
At the same time, he only diligently completed the work assigned by Tang Yiming, the head of department, and never overstepped his boundaries.
However, it was precisely because of this that Tang Yiming’s vigilance never lessened while he admired him.
The young man with panda eyes in front of him was steady and capable, neither anxious nor impatient.
In the past, the Ancient Gods Clan in the Divine Lands was almost in charge of the internal affairs. After arriving in the Mortal World, he was under the control of others. The huge difference did not have any negative impact on Su Wei.
While he was diligently completing his duties, he was constantly familiarizing himself with everything within the Red Dust Ancient Gods Clan.
Tang Yiming was the Black Tortoise Hall Chief of the Red Dust Ancient Gods Clan, so his talent in this area was naturally not to be underestimated.
Although he did not have any substantial evidence, he was certain that Su Wei already had a hidden strategy in his heart and was just waiting for the time to strike.
The nail that Chen Luoyang had planted in the Black Tortoise Hall didn’t look eye-catching, but it was extremely solid.
“The Wildlands might invade the territory of our supreme-ruler Sect. The Sect Master is in seclusion right now. Unless it’s absolutely necessary, we shouldn’t disturb him.” ” Right now, many things are pressing, ” Tang Yiming said calmly. ” We still need Vice Sect Leader Chen to lead the way. Everyone, come up with a plan and prepare to defend against the enemy. ‘
“You’re right, Chief.” Su Wei cupped his hands.
Tang Yiming glanced at him. ” However, Vice Sect Leader Chen has left the headquarters for a long time. He hasn’t returned for a long time. We can’t find him to make a decision. This isn’t a solution.
Su Wei understood the other party’s meaning. He did not pretend to refuse, but said solemnly,” I understand what you mean, Chief. In this troubled time, we need to unite and fight against the enemy. If I had a way to contact you, I wouldn’t hide it. But I really don’t know where you are. ‘
Tang Yiming quietly looked at Su Wei in front of him.
Whether it was this person or Zhang Tianheng from the Divine Devil Palace, the ” Cult Master ” that came from the Divine Lands was different from the ‘
Cult Master ” that the people of the Ancient Gods Clan in the Mortal World had.
If this matter was strictly investigated, it could be properly discussed.
However, the prerequisite was that Jiang Yi himself had to express his feelings.
Jiang Yi had always been in seclusion, and Chen Luoyang was extremely powerful in the sect. Thus, everyone turned a blind eye to it.
After almost a year, most people had gradually gotten used to this and became numb to it.
However, after Chen Luoyang left the headquarters and there was no news for two months, some people in the sect started to feel lively again. The way Su
Wei, Zhang Tianheng, and the others addressed Chen Luoyang as ‘Sect Master’ also became harsh to the ears.
However, Tang Yiming did not have the intention to pursue these minor details. He only quietly observed Su Wei.
“The sect cannot be without rules for a day. There are many big and small matters waiting to be decided, ” Tang Yiming said indifferently.” Cult Master is in seclusion, and Vice Cult Master Chen is traveling far away. It’s inevitable that the cult will be without a leader. It’s not a solution to continue like this for a long time. If Vice Cult Master Chen doesn’t come back, we can only consider reactivating the Demon and Devil Alliance.
Before Chen Luoyang, the Deputy Sect Leader, was present, and when Sect
Leader Jiang Yi went into seclusion or went out for a long period of time, the Ancient Gods Clan was used to having the four hall masters, the various elders, and the higher-ups form a God-Devil Union to discuss the major matters of the Judicial Sect.
Su Wei knew that Tang Yiming was hinting at him to pass a message to Chen Luoyang.
“I can’t interfere in such a major matter.” He bowed to Tang Yiming.
Su Wei looked Tang Yiming in the eye. ” I’ve also heard some rumors about Cult Master being outside and the Connate Tomb. I can’t be sure if it’s true or not. However, if the news is true, I believe Cult Master will return soon. As for now, it might be because of some special reasons that delayed the trip.
Tang Yiming nodded calmly.”lf that’s the case, then that’s for the best. If Deputy Patriarch Chen contacts you, please ask him to return as soon as possible.”
“Don’t worry, Chief. I understand.” Su Wei bowed.
Watching Su Wei leave, Tang Yiming’s gaze was gloomy and uncertain as he fell into deep thought.
Time flew by, but the Ancient Gods Clan became more and more anxious.
There was no response from Jiang Yi’s seclusion.
They weren’t sure of Chen Luoyang’s whereabouts.
The Ancient Gods Clan waited and waited, but in the end, they received the news that the Wilderness had declared war!
The Lord of the Wilderness, the Overlord, Wo Longsha, challenged the leader of the Ancient Gods Clan, Jiang Yi.
He was arrogant. He knew that Jiang Yi was in seclusion, so he didn’t attack the headquarters of the Ancient Gods Clan directly. Instead, he sent out the challenge letter early. Then, he passed through the territory of the Ancient Gods Clan leisurely as if he was touring the mountains and rivers, leaving enough time for Jiang Yi, the ruler of the Ancient Gods Clan, to come out.
Unfortunately, the Ancient Gods Clan was still like ants on a hot pan.
It took him seven days to travel from the border of the Wilderness and the Ancient Gods Clan to the headquarters of the Ancient Gods Clan. He had given the Ancient Gods Clan enough time.
However, the problem was that there was no movement from Jiang Yi, the leader of the Ancient Gods Clan.
The door of the cave abode was tightly shut, showing no signs of coming out of seclusion.
At this moment, it wasn’t just Peng Feng, Tang Yiming, and Hong Biao. The other high-ranking experts in the headquarters, such as the Azure Dragon Hall’s Chief Lian Buyi, the other Martial Saint Peak Great Elder Du Qiming, and even Elder Gao and the other elders, had all arrived outside Jiang Yi’s cave abode.
Everyone bowed together and invited Jiang Yi out of seclusion.
However, after seven days, there was still no movement from the cave abode.
The people of Ancient Gods Clan looked at each other and felt that it was very tricky.
Something was obviously wrong.
It was unknown if Jiang Yi had suddenly entered a state of seclusion, cutting off all sounds from the outside world, or if he had used the excuse of seclusion to leave behind an empty cave abode.
The opinions of the higher-ups of the Ancient Gods Clan were divided into two groups.
On one hand, he was considering breaking through forcefully and opening the cave abode, while on the other hand, he was hesitant.
If Jiang Yi was really in closed door cultivation and this forced breakthrough disturbed him, the consequences could be severe. If there were serious consequences, the Ancient Gods Clan would collapse before the Manhuang Tribe King came.
Time passed day by day.
After seven days, when the sun rose again on the horizon, there was also a figure walking in the sky and visiting the headquarters of the Ancient Gods Clan.
As the tall figure stepped forward, the surrounding world seemed to tremble.
“Jiang Yi, come out and see me.”
The voice of the newcomer did not sound loud, but it seemed to echo in every corner of the world.
In the headquarters of Ancient Gods Clan, Peng Feng, Du Qiming, and the other high-level experts all looked solemn, looking at the tall man who stood in the air like a pillar.
They were naturally extremely familiar with the person who had just arrived.
The Lord of the Wilderness, ‘Overlord’ Wo Longsha.
Although he was young, he was one of the top ten experts of the Red Dust Devil Dao with Jiang Yi, the leader of the Ancient Gods Clan. His reputation was even greater.
“Jiang Yi, I won’t make things difficult for the Martial Saint since someone from your sect killed my subordinate. We are both lords of this place, so let us settle this..”
