C9 He Had Written It down in Advance
In the Celestial Sword Hall.
The brightly lit Celestial Sword Hall was still filled with disciples of the Heaven Grade and the four elders. Of course, Ye Jingxian was also there.
The atmosphere was as depressing as ever. Everyone's face was filled with nervousness. They would often chat with the people around them in an attempt to relieve the tension, but they would always glance at the entrance of the hall.
Every time they looked at the empty door, their nervousness would increase. It was until Ye Dongling's bell-like voice sounded.
"Grandfather!" Ye Dongling's figure appeared at the entrance of the hall.
Everyone immediately went up to greet her.
"How is it?" Ye Jingxian asked.
Ye Dongling smiled. She stretched out her hand from behind her back, and a bamboo tube appeared in her palm. She showed it to everyone as if she was praising them, "It's here!"
"I didn't expect that kid to have a High Grade Earth Level Spirit Gathering Pill."
"Thank goodness the Sect Master is so cunning …"
"Hmm?" Everyone's noses twitched as they looked at the disciple who spoke.
Ye Tianxing quickly corrected himself, "Luckily the Sect Master is wise and smart. He came up with such a trick and stole the Spirit Gathering Pill in advance …"
"Can you speak?"
Ye Tianxing corrected himself again, "You came up with such a brilliant plan to steal the Spirit Gathering Pill in advance. If that kid gave the Spirit Gathering Pill to Bi Zhuang personally, we would be punished …"
"Shut up!"
It could be seen that the atmosphere in the Celestial Sword Hall had become lively after Ye Dongling's appearance. Ye Tianxing had made three mistakes in one sentence, and Ye Jingxian did not even bother to pursue the matter.
At the same time, there were also voices of doubt, "What if this is fake?"
Everyone was stunned. They had never seen such a high level item like the Earth Level Spirit Gathering Pill before. Even if it was fake, no one present could tell.
At this moment, Ye Dongling spoke.
"You guys have not interacted with that trash much, so you don't understand him. He is a person who is afraid of death. Before he does anything, he will not take the risk unless he has absolute confidence in it. Even if the chances of success are eighty percent, he will not take the risk.
If he can't take out the Spirit Gathering Pill, he will definitely run away in seven days. But now that seven days have passed, he hasn't run away. That can only mean that he can take out the Spirit Gathering Pill."
"Dongling, I'm not targeting you. What if you get the fake one?"
Ye Dongling had no choice but to recount what had happened just now. Although she had given her first kiss to that trash, it was disgusting, but in order to make everyone feel at ease, she still carefully recounted every detail.
"Masks? What masks?" The first person was still asking.
"That guy has been in the Celestial Sword Sect for three years. He has to have some dignity, right? He can't just go out without covering his face!" Another disciple laughed.
"Alright." Ye Jingxian stopped everyone, "Since we are sure that guy can take out the Spirit Gathering Pill, and Dongling didn't find any other pills in his room, then this is the Earth Level Spirit Gathering Pill. Let's take this opportunity to broaden our horizons."
Then, she gestured for Ye Dongling to open the bamboo tube.
Ye Dongling opened the bamboo tube and held the five pills in her hand. She then showed them to the crowd with a proud expression on her face.
"They look familiar." Zhung Qiu frowned slightly as he looked at the pills in Ye Dongling's hand. He felt that they looked familiar, but he could not recall them.
"They also look familiar. They look exactly like the things I threw away yesterday." Lin Changhe teased.
"Since we have the Spirit Gathering Pill, we don't have to worry about the Big Blade Sect anymore, right?" Some people looked at Ye Jingxian.
"No." Ye Jingxian shook her head. "Earth Level Spirit Gathering Pills are not immortal pills. Even if we take five pills together, we might not be able to reach Bi Yuesheng's level in one night. Let's get past this obstacle first."
Although Ye Jingxian had decided to hand over the pills to Bi Zhuang, the man's words enlightened her.
"Grand Sea, before dawn, you go and get three pills that look similar." He said.
"Do you want to?"
Ye Jingxian smiled and nodded. "Your speed is the best. Hurry up and go."
Seeing Li Dahai's back as he left in a hurry, Ye Jingxian smiled and narrowed her eyes. She looked at the darkness outside the hall and said, "Shen Feixue, I once swore that I would make you beg for death!"
Now that she had stolen Shen Feixue's item that could balance the Celestial Sword Sect, Ye Jingxian could kill him now. However, it would be too easy for him if she did that.
He did not plan to let Shen Feixue die so easily!
The people of Celestial Sword Hall were too excited to go back to their rooms to rest. They chatted with each other in the hall and felt relaxed.
They were all discussing how to torture Shen Feixue when the sun rose.
Li Dahai, who had left earlier, also returned to the Celestial Sword Hall at two o'clock in the morning. The red sun climbed up the top of the Celestial Cloud Mountain and shone brightly in the hall.
The people who had stayed up the entire night were not tired at all. They were filled with anticipation for what would happen next.
"Reporting to the Sect Master, Master Bi of the Big Blade Sect is heading towards the Celestial Sword Hall."
Bi Yuesheng had come personally?
Ye Jingxian's heart skipped a beat. Previously, he had asked Li Dahai to make three pill-like pills. He had planned to trick Bi Zhuang into not recognizing the High Grade Earth Level Spirit Gathering Pill.
Now that Bi Yuesheng had come personally, was that old man still going to lie to him?
Ye Jingxian did not know. He could only take one step at a time. His heart was tight, and he had to put on a sincere smile. It was unbearable.
"Hahaha, Brother Ye, it's been a long time since we last met. You have become a lot younger again." A loud laugh came from outside the hall. A burly figure appeared at the entrance of the hall. Bi Yuesheng, who had a face full of stubble, laughed so hard that his facial features were twisted together. He stepped into the hall.
Although Bi Yuesheng had a big head and a thick neck, he looked like a butler. Ye Jingxian did not dare to slight him. He went up to him and said, "Brother Bi, your son is a hero. You are worried that he won't be able to do such a small thing? Why did you come here personally?"
Following Ye Jingxian's guidance, Bi Yuesheng walked towards the guest seats and said, "Ah, Brother Ye, you might not know this, but twenty years ago, I went to Yongle City with my father. I saw that thing once in the Mysteries Pavilion Headquarters."
These words made Ye Jingxian feel as if he had fallen into an ice cave. He wanted to use a fake to deceive him, but Bi Yuesheng had seen it with his own eyes, so he could not lie!
He could only obediently hand it over.
How could Bi Yuesheng know what Ye Jingxian was thinking? She continued to say, "Whenever I think of the High Grade Earth Level Spirit Gathering Pill, the image of my father talking in the Mysteries Pavilion will always appear in my mind. Every word is still fresh in my mind.
"Seven days ago, I heard from Zhuang'er that Brother Ye wanted to give me the Earth Level Spirit Gathering Pill. I couldn't sleep at night for the past seven days. Every time I closed my eyes, I would see my father's figure. That's why I couldn't wait to come here."
"To be honest, I don't care about the effects of the Earth Level Spirit Gathering Pill. What I want to do is to reminisce about my deceased father."
Remembrance!
Ye Jingxian clenched his teeth in hatred. Bi Yuesheng's ability to make a name for himself was getting better and better.
Even so, Ye Jingxian still had a fake smile on his face as he nodded and bowed.
After another round of agreement, the two of them finally entered the main topic.
"Who is that Shen Feixue?" Bi Yuesheng asked.
You don't know who she is, do you? Ye Jingxian cursed in his heart. He didn't believe that Bi Yuesheng didn't ask about her before coming here, but he still smiled and introduced Shen Feixue.
Bi Yuesheng shook his head with a regretful expression after hearing this, "It's a pity that Zhuang'er is very satisfied with Dongling, but he was delayed by this person."
Seeing this, Ye Jingxian immediately followed up, "Dongling also admires your son's character. I think that the two of them will be willing to marry each other."
"But she has an agreement with Shen Feixue."
"What's so difficult about that?" Ye Jingxian smiled and took out a meter-long yellow envelope from his sleeve, "As long as Shen Feixue signs this marriage annulment certificate, then the marriage between Dongling and Ling will happen naturally."
"I heard that Shen Feixue is a stubborn person. Will he sign it?"
"He will!" Ye Jingxian nodded confidently.
"If that's the case, then we will be a family in the future. I only need four Earth Level Spirit Gathering Pills, and the rest will be your betrothal gifts."
"It's a deal." Although Ye Jingxian was smiling on the surface, he was unable to calm down in his heart. He had tried his best to facilitate the marriage between Bi Zhuang and Ye Dongling, and all the problems had returned to the original point. There was no need to use five Earth Level Spirit Gathering Pills to return the hundred Yellow Level Spirit Gathering Pills.
However, the problem was that according to the original agreement, the five Earth Level Spirit Gathering Pills should have belonged to the Celestial Sword Sect, but now they had become one.
This Bi Yuesheng was indeed cunning!
Thinking about it again, the one hundred Yellow Level Spirit Gathering Pills had not been returned, and the marriage had been arranged, achieving the purpose of marriage. Moreover, he had obtained a free Earth Level Spirit Gathering Pill.
It seemed like she had made a profit! Why did the more she thought about it, the more she felt like she was losing money?
"Sect Master, Shen Feixue is here."
Ye Jingxian put down the worries in his heart and looked at Shen Feixue who was walking slowly towards the door with a worried expression. He could not help but feel inexplicably happy, "Young Master Shen, your face looks very bad. You didn't rest last night, did you?"
Shen Feixue did not even want to look at Ye Jingxian, who had a completely different expression from before.
"I lost the item." As he spoke, he found an empty seat and sat down.
"Isn't it important?" Lin Changhe knew the answer and almost couldn't help but laugh out loud. However, he started to admire Shen Feixue a little. She knew that the Spirit Gathering Pill was missing, yet she still dared to come to the Celestial Sword Hall.
Shen Feixue lowered her head and replied in a low voice, "Luckily."
Pfft ~
Finally, a disciple of the Celestial Sword Sect could not hold it in anymore and laughed out loud.
Shen Feixue's current state was vastly different from three days ago on the Sword Platform. The arrogance from before had been completely wiped out.
'Trash is still that trash!'
Amidst the laughter, Shen Feixue slowly raised her head and looked at Ye Jingxian, "Actually, I came here today because I have something to clarify with Young Master Bi and the head of the Big Blade Sect."
"Just put it aside for now!" Ye Jingxian smiled and the envelope appeared in his hand again. With a wave of his hand, the envelope flew towards Shen Feixue, "Put your fingerprint on it."
Seeing Shen Feixue bent over to pick up the envelope and was about to open it to check, Ye Jingxian continued, "You don't need to look. This is the marriage annulment letter. The general meaning is that you feel that you are not worthy of Dongling, so you don't want to burden her, and you want to destroy the marriage. From now on, you two have nothing to do with each other."
"But..."
"There is no 'but'. After you sign the contract, you will no longer have any relationship with the Celestial Sword Sect. You can leave the mountain freely."
"You misunderstood me." Shen Feixue shook her head and took out a small envelope from her bosom. "I mean, I wrote it in advance and I have already signed it with my fingerprint."
"At least you know what's good for you." One of the disciples took the envelope from Shen Feixue and said, "So you had already thought about it and decided to protect your life. However, you can leave the mountain, but you can forget about living after you leave the mountain!"
After the disciple passed the envelope to Ye Jingxian, the latter impatiently opened it. He wanted to see how Shen Feixue would admit defeat.
However, after taking a glance at it, the smile on his face froze. He glared at Shen Feixue and asked, "What is this?"
"It is a divorce letter!" Shen Feixue's indifferent smile once again filled her face. "Ye Dongling is the woman I, Shen Feixue, don't want!"
