Chapter 131 Chen Wan'er, the Nosy One
Upon hearing Gao Huohuo's arrangements, Li Wen's admiration for her grew even stronger.
He never imagined that he would not only become the sect leader of the Blood Demon Sect, but also have the potential to develop and expand the sect into a powerful force.
This was a long-cherished dream he had kept hidden in his heart for many years!
Who could have predicted that meeting Gao Huohuo would bring a glimmer of hope for all of this to come true?
Even his cultivation level increased rapidly because of the contract he formed with her. This kind of adventure was simply like a dream.
Immediately afterwards, Gao Huohuo flipped her wrist and threw out a storage bag, which landed steadily in Li Wen's hand.
"This contains cultivation resources. The most important thing right now is to focus on improving our cultivation and securing the position of sect leader."
Other trivial matters can be handled by subordinates.
As for those who disagree with you, find a pretext to send them away tomorrow.
"Don't worry, it won't be long before they come crying back to you, begging for your hand. At that time, your position as sect leader will be as secure as a rock."
Gao Huohuo's words seemed to have a magical power, and Li Wen could already see himself sitting on the throne of the sect leader, receiving the worship of everyone.
Full of anticipation, he respectfully bid farewell to Gao Huohuo and rushed back to the Blood Demon Sect to begin making arrangements.
Gao Huohuo then flashed to the place where the Jade Stream Flower grows.
A year has passed, and the Jade Stream Flowers have bloomed a few more times. As the branches sway, there is no trace of Su Ruoyun's visit.
Gao Huohuo didn't waste any time. He reached out and picked all the flowers, swallowing them all at once.
Although one-third of his soul was separated, there were no obvious external injuries on the surface.
But she still felt weak all over and listless.
Back at their cultivation place, they saw that Chen Wan'er had already broken through to the fifth level of Foundation Establishment.
Gao Huohuo took out some pills and invisibility talismans and handed them to her, whispered a few words of advice, and then sent her to the Blood Demon Sect.
After arriving at the Blood Demon Sect, Chen Wan'er immediately contacted Li Wen using her supernatural powers.
Li Wenxin understood immediately, knowing that this was a capable helper sent by the adults to assist him.
He immediately summoned one of his men, whispered a few words in his ear, and the man hurriedly left after receiving the order.
Before long, the newly appointed First Elder and Third Elder of the Blood Demon Sect walked out of the sect side by side.
The Grand Elder looked bewildered and muttered:
"Didn't the sect leader send the two of us to receive the spirit stones offered by the sects below?"
Where is everyone? We've been waiting for ages, and haven't seen a soul in sight.
The Third Elder also frowned and shook his head helplessly:
"I'm puzzled too. This is really inexplicable."
"Hmph, recently, the sect leader has been particularly fond of that kid Li Wen."
He's the one who relays everything; we elders are practically useless, not even as good as a disciple.
The elder looked displeased, and his words were full of sourness.
"Who can argue with that? We've struggled and fought our way up in the Blood Demon Sect for so many years, and now we've ended up in this state. It's truly frustrating."
The Third Elder sighed deeply, his heart filled with resentment.
The two were complaining back and forth when suddenly a clear, slightly mocking voice came from the side:
"You have no ability yourself, yet you blame others."
Look at your cultivation levels, you're all so old, and you haven't even reached the Nascent Soul stage.
How dare you stand here sighing and complaining about not being valued?
The First Elder and the Third Elder looked in the direction of the sound and saw a young female cultivator in the Foundation Establishment stage standing gracefully with a hint of arrogance in her eyes.
Upon seeing that the other party was merely a minor character in the Foundation Establishment stage, the two were instantly enraged.
The elder glared angrily and shouted, "You ignorant brat, what business is it of yours what we're talking about here?"
"You, a mere Foundation Establishment cultivator, dare to meddle in the affairs of us Golden Core cultivators? You're simply asking for trouble!"
Chen Wan'er's lips curled up, revealing a carefree smile:
"I, Chen Wan'er, am naturally a busybody, and I can't stand hypocritical and pretentious people like you."
"What, you think you're so great just because you're at the Golden Core stage? Go ahead and kill me if you dare!"
Upon hearing this, the Third Elder felt that the female cultivator was extremely arrogant and simply didn't know her place.
"Fine, since you're determined to die, then I'll grant your wish!"
After saying that, he suddenly swung out a palm, his palm energy surging and accompanied by a whistling wind, directly striking Chen Wan'er.
"Hmph, serves you right for meddling in other people's business. Now your life is in danger. Let's see how arrogant you are then!"
The Grand Elder also crossed his arms and snorted coldly.
Like the Third Elder, he thought that Chen Wan'er would surely die on the spot after this palm strike, so he didn't look at her again.
Unexpectedly, Chen Wan'er stood firmly in place, not only unharmed, but also laughing even more unrestrainedly:
"So you're talking about Golden Core cultivation? You can't even beat a mere Foundation Establishment cultivator like me. You're utterly trash, a disgrace!"
Having said that, she took light steps, turned around, and gracefully left.
Once she reached the corner, Chen Wan'er quietly affixed an invisibility talisman and vanished without a trace.
When the First Elder and the Third Elder came to their senses and realized that Chen Wan'er was nowhere to be seen, they were furious and stood there cursing loudly.
Before they could exchange more than a few words, the two of them felt a sharp pain inside their bodies.
The spiritual energy was like a wild horse, rampaging and causing chaos in the meridians.
"What...what's going on?"
The elder was terrified, his face turned pale, and he quickly sat cross-legged on the spot, circulating his spiritual power to desperately resist.
The Third Elder was also sweating profusely, his hands trembling as he tried to suppress the raging spiritual power within him: "Could it be that girl's doing?"
It took the two of them a full hour to barely recover.
The First Elder looked up at the Third Elder and asked weakly, "Third Elder, were you also experiencing a disturbance in your spiritual energy just now?"
The Third Elder nodded repeatedly: "Yes, First Elder, you too?"
The two exchanged a glance, and at the same time, a name came to mind—Chen Wan'er.
It was already suspicious that a Foundation Establishment cultivator could withstand a full-force attack from a Golden Core cultivator and emerge unharmed.
Now that they have both suffered this misfortune, it seems that someone must have deliberately plotted to harm them.
"We shouldn't stay here any longer. If Chen Wan'er returns, we'll be in trouble," the First Elder said worriedly.
"But...but we haven't completed the task assigned by the sect leader. If we go back like this, we might be punished."
The Third Elder frowned, looking troubled.
"Alas, the sect leader has been unwell lately, and his temperament has become increasingly unpredictable. Who knows what will happen when he returns?"
The Grand Elder shook his head helplessly.
"Elder, you were promoted by the Sect Master himself, why don't you go and plead with the Sect Master on your behalf?" the Third Elder suggested with a headache.
"Hmph, you've got a good plan, why don't you go yourself?"
"You've been in the Blood Demon Sect for just as long as I have. Does the Sect Master not even give you this much face?" the First Elder replied irritably.
The reason he was promoted by the sect leader was entirely due to his ability to be flexible and adaptable over the years, as well as his ability to read people's expressions.
That's how he caught the sect leader's eye and climbed his way up to the position of Grand Elder.
The Third Elder sighed heavily: "If it were before, perhaps there would still be a possibility."
But now, the sect leader won't even see me; what face do I have left to save?"
The elder's eyes darted around, and he suddenly thought of someone:
"By the way, if we're talking about who the sect leader trusts the most right now, it has to be Li Wen."
He's always by the sect leader's side; asking him for help with this little thing shouldn't be a problem, right?
The Grand Elder had high hopes, but when the two returned to the Blood Demon Sect and heard that the Sect Master had once again gone on a killing spree, killing several people, they were immediately terrified.
The two dared not delay and quickly sent a telepathic message to Li Wen, signaling him to come out and meet them.
Li Wen received the telepathic message and walked out unhurriedly.
Seeing the disheveled state of the First Elder and the Third Elder, he secretly laughed to himself.
The thought of these two men bowing down and begging him made him even more grateful that he had chosen to follow Gao Huohuo.
