At that time, the Three Elders explained to Direction East and Fang West about the events that had transpired, of course portraying the Xiao Family as extremely violent, claiming that it was only due to the desperate resistance of the Three Elders that they managed to drive the enemy away. The battle had been quite brutal.
Fat Elder was already in a very sorry state because of Guan Yue, and both Short Elder and Tall Elder showed signs of post-battle disarray after some makeup.
Once Direction East and Fang West nodded in agreement, Fat Elder instructed Short Elder to find Guan Yue and tell him to stop his nonsense. Otherwise, the Fang Family would not rest until they settled things with him!
Short Elder sighed and reluctantly went to find Guan Yue.
Naturally, Short Elder spotted Guan Yue immediately, so he quickly approached him. At that moment, Guan Yue was recovering his cultivation. The earlier confrontation with Fat Elder and Tall Elder, both experts from the Mysterious Heaven Realm, had taken quite a toll on him.
Seeing Guan Yue, Short Elder wasted no time and simply said, "Guan Young Master, I hope you won't reveal the truth about the Fang Clan Leader's family matters for at least a year. Just promise me one year, and I will resolve the related issues. For the sake of our Fang Family, I hope you can agree. After all, you will soon become our Fang Family's son-in-law. A year later, you can tell them the truth. That way, you can ease your conscience. After a year, you can shift all the responsibility onto me; I will bear the burden of this deception."
Guan Yue had many thoughts swirling in his mind; he also had his own shortcomings in handling this matter, which led to such an outcome. If he hadn't set up formations at Fang Hanshan's place, this situation could have been entirely avoided. He felt he had indirectly harmed Madam Fang. Thus, Guan Yue nodded and said, "Second Elder, I promise you. I won't mention the truth of the incident within a year. When the time comes, I will take on my responsibilities."
Guan Yue's last statement left Short Elder stunned: What? He wants to take on his responsibilities? This declaration indicated that this young man was indeed commendable. He was willing to take action and accept consequences; Fang Hanshan's son was fortunate.
Thus, Short Elder and Guan Yue reached a verbal agreement. Both parties were acting for the sake of the Fang Family, while Guan Yue was primarily concerned for Fang West.
Due to Fang West's mother's unfortunate incident, their planned marriage was postponed. At this point, Fat Elder no longer restricted Guan Yue's freedom of movement.
However, Fat Elder did not cease his efforts against Guan Yue; he subsequently sought out his backer: Hall Master Hai Buyun of Tai Shun Pavilion and Ocean Rhythm Hall.
"Hall Master, I've been feeling quite distressed lately," Fat Elder said while clutching his round belly with a fawning smile on his face and adopting a very respectful demeanor that piqued Hai Buyun's interest.
"Oh? With Elder Fang's strong support at our Tai Shun Pavilion, isn't your Fang Family always in control? What troubles could you possibly have? Could it be that your two brothers are planning a rebellion?"
"Hall Master Hai is joking. Naturally, I can control my Fang Family; however, recently an outsider has caused chaos within our family. This person is also set to become Fang Hanshan's future son-in-law. Recently, Fang Hanshan broke through to the Mysterious Heaven Realm; he is indeed a significant combat power for our Fang Family. I certainly do not wish to harm him. But this outsider has gotten involved with Fang Hanshan's daughter. And she is only sixteen years old yet has already broken through to the Breaking Heaven stage; she is truly a rare talent for our Fang Family in a century. I cannot bear to harm her either. In the future, she will surely become another expert in our Mysterious Heaven Realm. After much consideration, I can only ask Hall Master to help me eliminate this Guan fellow so we can resolve this issue once and for all; otherwise, it may lead to internal strife within my Fang Family."
"Fang Hanshan's daughter broke through to Breaking Heaven at sixteen?" Hai Buyun asked.
Fat Elder secretly regretted saying too much; hadn't he just pushed Fang West into Tai Shun Pavilion's spotlight?
He could only force a bitter smile and say, "Yes, Hall Master; Fang Hanshan's daughter is just over fifteen years old and still has three months until she turns sixteen." He dared not deceive Hai Buyun.
Sure enough, Hai Buyun laughed and said, "Then hurry up and arrange for that girl to report to me. At Tai Shun Pavilion, we will definitely help her grow faster. If she achieves something, it will be a great asset for your Fang Family. In your Fang Family, she can only develop naturally, and it’s very likely that this good seedling will be buried."
The Fat Elder muttered, "In your place, she can only reach the Mysterious Heaven Realm as well. Isn't that the same as in our Fang Family?" At this moment, the Fat Elder's hatred towards Fang West had diminished significantly; he had redirected all his animosity towards Guan Yue. On the contrary, he truly believed that Fang West was a more outstanding talent than himself. He wanted her to stay in the Fang Family indefinitely, as that would ensure five disciples at the Mysterious Heaven Realm would emerge from the Fang Family.
For many years, the Fang Family had relied on the Three Elders to hold everything together. Now that Fang Hanshan had finally broken through to the Mysterious Heaven Realm, if Fang West also broke through to the Mysterious Heaven Realm, their Fang Family would surpass Tai Shun Pavilion and Ocean Rhythm Hall in terms of Xuantian Realm Cultivators. At that time, he wouldn't have to hand over all the good things to Tai Shun Pavilion anymore.
"Haha, Elder Fang, you are truly ignorant. Who told you that our Tai Shun Pavilion can only cultivate your niece to the Profound Heaven Realm? Do you know there are many realms above Xuantian Realm Cultivators? You haven't even heard of Transformation Realm, have you?"
Hai Buyun's tone was already quite rude. He was very angry about any actions or words that belittled Tai Shun Pavilion, especially from someone like the Fat Elder.
Transformation Realm? The Fat Elder had truly never heard of this term. Was it possible that Mysterious Heaven Realm was not the peak for disciples? Could Xuantian Peak still continue to break through?
"How come I haven't seen a single Transformation Realm disciple in the Dragon Python Celestial Domain for hundreds of years? Could it be...?" The Fat Elder exclaimed in surprise as if he had thought of something.
"Yes, they are no longer in our Dragon Python Heaven Domain; they have all gone to Wasteland Sacred Continent." Hai Buyun admired the Fat Elder's ability to grasp concepts quickly and his expression improved considerably.
"Oh, do we have hope of going to Wasteland Sacred Continent too?" The Fat Elder asked curiously. In truth, he didn't really want to go to Wasteland Sacred Continent because he was very satisfied with his current life—dominating in the Fang Family and having everything under control. It was just that Guan Yue made him uncomfortable.
"When you reach the peak of Mysterious Heaven Realm, you'll know whether you can enter Wasteland Sacred Continent. At any other time, you cannot be certain about this matter. It's very mysterious." Hai Buyun sighed heavily. Now Hai Buyun was also at High-Quality Mysterious Heaven Realm and just a step away from reaching the peak of Mysterious Heaven Realm, but even now he still didn't know if he could enter Wasteland Sacred Continent.
"So there is such a thing?" The Fat Elder casually replied and did not bring it up again because he had no interest in Wasteland Sacred Continent.
"What about my Fang Family's matters?" The Fat Elder brought the topic back.
"Tell me about that kid's situation," Hai Buyun said casually.
The Fat Elder said casually, "That kid's surname is Guan; his name is Guan Yunfei. He is currently seventeen or eighteen years old and at the middle stage of Breaking Heaven."
"Alright, alright, no need to say more. I'll have Old Qiao take care of him; let him go tomorrow," Hai Buyun impatiently interrupted the Fat Elder.
"Hall Master, may I finish what I was saying?" The Fat Elder genuinely felt frustrated. This Hall Master was just relying on Tai Shun Pavilion's reputation to act arrogantly here. If it weren't for Tai Shun Pavilion's face, who would care about Hai Buyun?
"What else do you have to say?" Hai Buyun was also getting angry. This guy couldn't even handle a Breaking Heaven disciple and came looking for help for such a trivial matter; he really didn't understand how this guy usually bullied those weaker than him while being afraid of those stronger.
"This kid named Guan is particularly strange. I once wanted to deal with him personally but ended up trapped in his formation instead. Then he released me from the formation but could still control me, making me unable to resist at all. This matter has left me puzzled; that's why I came to seek help from Hall Master."
Fat Elder finally completed his statement, then looked very seriously at Hai Buyun, hoping to see what expression would be on his face at that moment.
"Is it true that Guan Yunfei has such abilities? Could he really be at the Breaking Heaven Realm?" Hai Buyun furrowed his brow.
"Absolutely true," Fat Elder affirmed.
Hai Buyun stood up from his seat and began pacing back and forth, his brow tightly knitted as he muttered to himself, "Seventeen years old, Breaking Heaven Realm, formations, controlled, middle grade of the Mysterious Heaven Realm?"
"No, Old Man must go and personally experience the methods of this young man with the surname Guan." After thinking for a long time, Hai Buyun suddenly stopped and said decisively, startling Fat Elder.
"Lord Hall Master, you want to personally go to my Fang Family? If you were to visit, it would be an honor for my Fang Family, and we would surely shine brightly. But if you are going to deal with that young man with the surname Guan, please do not say it was my idea; after all, I do not wish to offend Fang Hanshan right now." Fat Elder was shocked by the decision of the Hall Master. Could he be thinking of coming to my Fang Family to extract some benefits? At the same time, he was worried that if the Hall Master personally dealt with Guan Yunfei, it would provoke Fang Hanshan. So he preemptively warned Hai Buyun.
Hai Buyun chuckled and said, "No, it absolutely has nothing to do with you. I really just want to meet this young talent."
The fat man was taken aback: What? So the young man with the surname Guan has become a talent in his eyes? What on earth is going on?
As expected, the suggestion from Huangfu Jiayin was accepted by the elders of the Dao Zhen Sect. These elders were even more aware than Huangfu Jiayin that if they continued to delay, the Dao Zhen Sect would only face a dead end. Yet in this struggle, there was still a glimmer of hope to escape their predicament!
However, they forcibly kept Huangfu Jiayin within the Dao Zhen Sect. Every time a meeting was held, she was given a seat to express her opinions and make suggestions.
Indeed, after a sudden attack on the headquarters of the Dao Zhen Sect, the Truth Sect, and the city officials, a storm surged in Holl City. After several days of disputes, most of the attention turned towards several powerful factions, including the Tai Dou Pavilion.
