Chapter 701: Chapter 701
Yin Mountain Territory, the tumultuous Blood Sea, blood evil shrouds heaven and earth, rarely visited by Immortal Gods since ancient times.
Above the quiet Study Sea, the figure of Bai Jin emerged, carrying a fruit basket, smiling cheerfully, and calling out: "Jie Sect’s Bai Jin has come to visit Ming He Sect Master!"
The vast Blood Sea was boundless and at this moment silently split apart; the ocean was divided into two halves, with blood gushing and not a single drop crossing over. Two groups of Asuras walked out from the divided Blood Sea, one group enchantingly lovely and incomparable, the other fiercely ugly and peerless.
An ugly Asura riding a Blood Qilin came forth from the midst, dismounted the Qilin, bowed with clasped hands, and with a ninety-degree respectful bow, said: "Asura King Bo Xun obeys the Sect Master’s command to come and welcome Emperor Gouchen."
Bai Jin responded with a smile, "Thank you, Asura King."
Bo Xun, the Demon King, stood up, stretched out a hand beside him, and said: "Emperor, please!"
Following Bo Xun, Bai Jin entered beneath the Blood Sea, the whole parted pathway flanked by respectfully standing Asuras, a powerful and solemn scene.
In Bai Jin’s heart, doubts arose, this felt more like a show of power than a welcome.
Next to the Sea Eye of the Blood Sea, stood a large palace, covering a vast area, with towering interior pavilions, impressive and atmospheric, yet quite deserted.
Bo Xun led Bai Jin in front of the great palace, respectfully saying: "Emperor, the Sect Master dislikes disturbances, even I am not allowed to command entry, please proceed by yourself into the palace."
Bai Jin nodded and smiled, saying: "Thank you, Asura King."
Bo Xun, riding the Blood Qilin, turned and left, vanishing into the tumultuous Blood Sea.
Bai Jin adjusted his clothes, with a somewhat apprehensive heart, walked towards the Shura Hall; the current situation was the Bull Demon King wronging Princess Iron Fan, and as the Princess’s maternal family, it would already be polite not having come over with one sword strike.
Stepping into the palace gate, a wave of spacetime enveloped Bai Jin, and in the next moment, he instantly arrived in a garden, looking around, the garden had no trace of blood, instead, it was planted with beautiful flowers, ahead was a clear pond with lotus flowers blooming all over, as if returning to the Heavenly Court.
An emaciated old man in green clothes was sitting by the pond, holding a sharp Killing Sword, honing it on a green stone.
Bai Jin looked towards the pond, his eyes involuntarily twitching twice, the water in this pond contained terrifyingly matchless Sword Qi, even he did not wish to touch it, below the Sword Tao Saint, Ming He is respected.
Bai Jin set the fruit basket on a table beside, bowed and said: "Disciple has come to see Uncle Master!"
Ming He Sect Master calmly said: "Come sit!" Follow current novels on novelFɪre.net
Bai Jin walked over, found a stone casually beside the pond to sit on, and guiltily said: "Since the Divine Enthronement, I have been busy with the affairs of the Three Realms, defining the order of the Three Realms, treating the creatures of the Three Realms kindly.
However, I have neglected my fellow disciples from the past; I just learned that a fellow disciple fell to the Lower Realm, claimed a mountain as king, and was even fortunate enough to become related to the Sect Master.
This is indeed a joyful event, which should have been grandly celebrated, announced to the Three Realms, but due to my negligence, I was not aware, and only today have I come to visit, which truly shames me."
Ming He Sect Master paused his sword sharpening, set the Longsword aside, and asked, "What do you think of this garden?"
"Made as if spring breeze drunkening the flowers, causing the butterflies to fuss and the bees to buzz.
The one who built this garden must also possess a kind and beautiful heart."
Ming He Sect Master nodded slightly, a rare smile appeared, reminiscing, "This garden was built by Luo Cha when she was a child, back then she was innocent and cheerful, pestering me to help her build this garden, there’s nothing peculiar here, all the flowers and plants were collected by Luo Cha herself."
Bai Jin sat next to him, enviously said, "I really envy the uncle master, having such a well-behaved and sensible daughter."
Ming He Sect Master smiled stiffly, then slowly exhaled and said, "During the Sealing God Battle, as Heaven and Earth clashed, I confined her to our house to prevent her from being involved in the calamity.
After the Calamity passed, she went to play in the Primordial Land, and I did not put much attention on it, thinking she would return after a few decades, but once she left, she never returned.
When I went out to find her, she happily told me while holding an ox demon that this was her chosen husband. Do you know how I felt at that moment?"
A flash of annoyance, even anger, passed through Ming He Sect Master’s calm eyes.
Bai Jin nodded and said sorrowfully, "I can understand that feeling, though I don’t have a daughter, I have three female disciples whom I treat as my own daughters.
If one day Jingwei suddenly brought a man in front of me, saying she wants to leave me and stay in his arms, I might even feel like killing someone.
It’s like I painstakingly nurtured a lush cabbage, sheltered and weeded for her, then one day I come back to find a pig has uprooted it."
Ming He Sect Master couldn’t help but look at Bai Jin, nodding in agreement, "You actually understand me indeed, it is precisely that feeling; I almost lost control and killed that stupid ox with a sword."
"The sect hierarch really has a good temperament to have restrained, I am far from comparable, disciple is convinced."
Ming He Sect Master sighed and said, "I can’t bear it! Luo Cha was insistent since she was young, and she stuck to her choice. If I had really killed that stupid ox, she would have hated me for life.
But I could see that this ox was no good at all, so I persisted in my opposition to their union, which eventually led Luo Cha to choose him, and she never returned to the Blood Sea."
Bai Jin unconsciously glanced at the nearby Killing Sword. It’s really the favor of the Heavenly Dao that the Bull Demon King is still alive. With outward lamentation, he said, "How pitiful the hearts of all parents are under heaven!
Uncle master, sometimes there is no right or wrong in love, a glance lasts for ten thousand years, a meeting lasts for a lifetime, love itself has no reason, nor a right or wrong choice."
Ming He Sect Master nodded and said, "Maybe so! But the facts have proved I was correct."
His eyes revealed a trace of murderous intent: "When Luo Cha completely cuts off her affection for the Bull Demon King, I must dismember him thoroughly."
Bai Jin firmly said: "There’s no need for the sect hierarch to act, when I heard what Kui Niu had done, I also shivered in anger. After reporting to the master, I will press him into the Judicial Temple, and he’ll be subjected to the family law of Jie Sect. Unless forgiven by Princess Iron Fan, he will never be released."
Ming He Sect Master frowned unpleasantly and said, "Bai Jin, are you still trying to save him?"
Bai Jin said grandly, "Uncle master, wrong is wrong, right is right, since it was Kui Niu who erred, I won’t deny it. You said to kill him, and I have absolutely no objection, I could even make a full ox banquet.
Uncle master, our feelings are the same, you care for Princess Iron Fan, I too regard Princess Iron Fan as a sister-in-law, I despise Kui Niu for bringing shame to Jie Sect."
"Then let’s kill him."
"Although we are both extremely enraged, we cannot act impulsively. We all want to flay him and obliterate his Divine Soul.
But since he is still Red Boy’s father, in the future when Red Boy grows up and learns we killed his father, he will surely take up a Longsword to seek revenge, leading to another tragedy."
