Chapter 2877
The Last Resort
“Alright. Sect Lord Ling’s words are trustworthy, truly an example of a sect lord should be. Hahaha. This one is impressive, very well then, we’ll come and visit again for the marriage proposal three days later. Sect Lord Ling must think about it carefully, a great event of a sect, we’ll see each other again, hahaha.”
Chu Wang left after that and the remaining elders bid their farewells as well.
A beautiful middle-aged lady came out from the back of the hall.
“Yanyu, are you really planning to push Little Yun to the pits of hell?” The lady bit her red lips and said with a pale expression.
Ling Yanyu’s expression darkened and replied:
“Dear, do you not understand me? Am I such a despicable person? Even though Little Yun is not my blood daughter, we’ve already treated her as one after so many years. Would I push my daughter down to the pits of hell? The schemes of the Blood Tool Sect are clear as day. Our Earthly Fire Heavenly Lightning Sect has only one entry to the Profound Connection Divine Palace and that’s Little Yun, she’s exceptionally talented and will certainly shine brightly in the Profound Connection Divine Palace. Rationally and emotionally, I will never allow Little Yun to face such a risk and send her into the Blood Tool Sect.”
Ling Yanyu’s expression was uglier than his wife. As the lord of the sect, there were limited choices for him to choose. He couldn’t just live for himself.
“But… they are obviously pressuring us, the nine great sects came together to our sect, they may really use force if we do not submit to them.” Yang Le was not an unreasonable woman.
As the wife of the sect lord, she’s pretty insightful. This mattered someone she regarded as her own flesh and blood, so she was unable to stay calm. She also understood that the Blood Tool Sect and the nine great sects were exhibiting their might. The Blood Tool Sect gained tremendous power in recent years, everyone wanted to have good relationships with them.
Chu Yunji travelled out and trained in the wild for several hundred years and came back with great results, becoming invincible in the Tian Xing Boundary, overpowering all the other prodigies. The Blood Tool Sect that was previously weak suddenly rose up to the main stage of the Tian Xing Boundary, becoming as powerful as the top ten sects.
At present, Ling Yun was the goddess of the Tian Xing Boundary. Naturally, she became the target of Chu Yunji. A hero must be accompanied by a beauty. For Chu Yunji, only Ling Yun was qualified in the whole Tian Xing Boundary. Plus, the Blood Tool Sect’s position would rise further with Earthly Fire Heavenly Lightning Sect as the stepping stone. Moreover, Ling Yun obtained the entry to the Profound Connection Divine Palace, if she married into the Blood Tool Sect, there would be an additional entry and the fame of the Blood Tool Sect would rise further.
Most importantly, by stepping on the Earthly Fire Heavenly Lightning Sect, the Blood Tool Sect would certainly become one of the strongest sects in Tian Xing Boundary in the future. Of course, the ambition of Chu Yunji, the ambition of Blood Tool Sect wasn’t as meager as this.
Now, they’re able to move the nine great sects to support them, obviously, they were leading them to pressure the Earthly Fire Heavenly Lightning Sect. It was also a way to show the other sects what would happen if they go against them. Since the Blood Tool Sect’s history was weak, it needed to have a good foundation to stand firmly in the Tian Xing Boundary, it needed recognition from all others.
Meaning that, Chu Yunji’s marriage proposal was extremely political. Of course, Ling Yun was exceptionally beautiful, it was killing two birds with one stone. The rise of the Blood Tool Sect was unstoppable.
“That’s what I’m worried about, the Blood Tool Sect is at its prime, the nine great sects have great relationships with them. We can only survive from the cracks between all that, we’ll be in deep trouble if they act with force.” Ling Yanyu said quietly with a solemn expression.
It was the most difficult time for him as the lord, as he can only watch his disciple being sent away helplessly, it’s a savage decision. However, if he didn’t do it, the Earthly Fire Heavenly Lightning Sect would face a perilous situation. The Blood Tool Sect was in its heyday, they wanted to show others what they’re made of, they’ll without a doubt eliminate those who stand in their way.
“I have an idea, I wonder if it will work.” Yang Le said as her eyes shone.
“Tell me.” Ling Yanyu looked at his wife with a heavy expression.
“Let’s first agree to the marriage, then, we’ll have Little Yun leave this place in secret to train herself, when the time comes for the Profound Connection Divine Palace, we’ll see what fate has in store for her, I think Little Yun will not get bullied by that fella.”
Ling Yanyu’s expression was heavy, it’s not a bad idea, however, what if Blood Tool Sect does not accept it? What if they become unreasonable? Ling Yanyu had thought of all the scenarios.
“What you said is not unreasonable, but, it’s not as simple as you think. The Blood Tool Sect is not simple. This Chu Yunji is said to have the ability to challenge his elders. It’s not easy to get past him. It’s troublesome now that the Blood Tool Sect has the support of the nine great sects. That’s a bad, bad move, I will never do it until the very last second.”
Ling Yanyu obviously did not have any choice, he needed to make this decision as the lord of the sect.
“Let me think about it for two more days.” Ling Yanyu sighed.
“It’s fine, master. I am willing to marry Blood Tool Sect’s Chu Yunji.” Ling Yun appeared.
Ling Yanyu and Yang Le looked at her with a complicated expression, feeling saddened.
“No. The Earthly Fire Heavenly Lightning Sect will never allow you to suffer.” Ling Yanyu said.
Ling Yun gave a faint smile and shook her head.
“This is not suffering, no woman does not fantasize marrying a great hero. Chu Yunji is pretty handsome and powerful. He’s a good candidate in the whole Tian Xing Boundary. There are many ladies that will fall over for him. I only need a man that’s exceptionally talented and strong that I can rely on. Chu Yunji fits it pretty well, isn’t it?”
