Chapter 509: Bu Yu Taoist returned to the sect without saying a word
Lu Yang watched the departing Body Fusion cultivators with a worried look, his brows furrowed and his mind uneasy.
"What's wrong? Can't bear to see them go? Want them to propose to you?" Meng Jingzhou teased with a smile. Ever since the celebration ended, there had been a constant stream of people coming to propose to Lu Yang, something Meng Jingzhou had noticed and envied.
Now, seeing Lu Yang staring longingly at the departing suitors, Meng Jingzhou couldn't help but laugh.
Lu Yang slowly shook his head and voiced his concern, "I'm worried they'll find out that proposing to me is a way to get close to Master. Then even more people will come."
Meng Jingzhou: "..."
Serves you right for asking too many questions!
With the memory of a Body Fusion cultivator, if they can't remember what they've done to offend someone, it speaks volumes.
Lu Yang thought that with his master's knack for making enemies, it wouldn't be surprising to hear one day that he had died violently outside.
To prevent such an accident, Lu Yang kindly suggested, "Master, have you considered writing your will in advance? I'm afraid you won't have time to write it when you're about to die."
Bu Yu Taoist gave his little disciple a meaningful look, thinking that Lu Yang's way of speaking had a touch of his second disciple's style when he formed his Yin-Yang Golden Core.
"Have you seen your second senior brother?"
"Second senior brother? No, isn't he in the Golden Buddha Kingdom?" Lu Yang didn't understand why his master asked that.
"Never mind."
Many disciples had come to watch Bu Yu Taoist. Back then, Bu Yu Taoist had been forced into seclusion for ten years and never showed his face. The eldest senior sister, believing Lu Yang's slander, released Bu Yu Taoist and sent him out to tell stories and promote the Seek Tao Sect. Since then, Bu Yu Taoist had never returned to the sect.
The previous two generations of disciples had only heard of the sect master but had never seen him.
Even in Lu Yang's generation, only Lu Yang and Meng Jingzhou had seen Bu Yu Taoist; Tao Yaoye, Man Gu, and Li Haoran had never met him.
"I heard the sect master is back. Let me see, let me see!"
"Isn't Yun Zhi the sect master?"
"Finally, I get to see the real sect master. When I was on a mission outside and introduced myself as a disciple of the Seek Tao Sect, people first asked if I was a disciple of Bu Yu Taoist. Only after confirming I wasn't would they let me in."
"Have you all never seen the sect master?"
"Have you?"
But no matter how meticulous the plan, there are always unexpected events. One day, the truth came out, and the Fourth Elder discovered that one of his senior brothers had been impersonating Ye Qianqian. Enraged, he searched everyone.
Seeing the situation turn bad, Bu Yu Taoist stuffed the unfinished letters under the Great Elder's bed.
As expected, the Fourth Elder fought with the Great Elder, only to find out later that it was Bu Yu Taoist's doing.
"Fourth Senior Brother, as a Confucian cultivator, practices the way of the gentleman, is rigid in his actions, and not quick-witted. It's easy for him to be deceived by women when he's out. Rather than let him be deceived by outsiders, it's better if I deceive him first. That way, he'll be more cautious in the future... uh, I mean, it's better to be deceived by a family member than an outsider." — This was Bu Yu Taoist's explanation before he got beaten.
The Great Elder still shuddered at the memory, knowing how ruthless scholars could be when they got serious.
"Since you're back, let's have a meeting. There's something we need to discuss with you."
The Great Elder gathered everyone: Yun Zhi, the eight elders, Bu Yu Taoist, Lu Yang, Meng Jingzhou, Tao Yaoye, Man Gu, Li Haoran, and Qin Yanyan.
The eldest senior sister was also in the sect. She watched her master get beaten without any intention of intervening.
Her reason was also valid — "I'm not at the Body Fusion stage; I can't beat them."
It was clear that the eldest senior sister really didn't want to get involved.
All the members of the Heavenly Court Sect were present. They looked at each other, heavy-hearted and silent, creating a tense atmosphere.
In fact, it was because the Sixth Elder was present, making it inconvenient for everyone to speak.
After listening to the Great Elder's explanation through divine sense, even Bu Yu Taoist, known for his trickery, was dumbfounded.
"So, the Heavenly Court Sect causing all the recent commotion is you guys?"
"It's us," the Great Elder corrected.
"...Not to mention you didn't get my consent before making me the Heavenly King Guardian of the Heavenly Court Sect. Being the Heavenly King Guardian is fine, but why did you name me the Growth Heavenly King based on my improved 'Shrinking Technique'?"
Grandpa Ba spread his hands, speaking reasonably, "You weren't here, so we had no choice. Besides, our Heavenly Court Sect values democracy. Your title was agreed upon by everyone except you."
Bu Yu Taoist was furious, veins bulging, "Democracy my ass! Who's the leader, the eldest senior brother or you? I want to get to the bottom of this!"
"Your eldest disciple."
"Growth Heavenly King sounds pretty good."
