Cultivation: the Rise of a Live-In Son-In-Law-Chapter 273 - 271: Red Cloud: "The Five Poison Sect Leader... Was Truly Injured by You!" Jiang Lingyue Visits the Red Cloud Sect

Chapter 273: Chapter 271: Red Cloud: "The Five Poison Sect Leader... Was Truly Injured by You!" Jiang Lingyue Visits the Red Cloud Sect

Those who do not know how to drink will likely not find joy in drinking.

Lu Ye did not see anything resembling a fondness for alcohol in the Red Cloud Fairy, who was simply a novice with flushed cheeks from being choked.

"Who said I couldn’t?"

The Red Cloud Fairy raised an eyebrow, tilted her head back, and took a gulp...

"Cough cough cough!"

Sure enough, the burning liquor seared her throat, making her cough violently.

After coughing for over ten seconds, the Red Cloud Fairy finally calmed down and said somewhat dejectedly, "You were right, I indeed cannot drink."

After a brief pause, she turned to Lu Ye and inquired.

"Lu Xuan, are you... unharmed?"

Lu Ye calmly responded, "Why do you ask?"

Sighing softly, the Red Cloud Fairy gazed intently at Lu Ye’s face: "No outsiders here, no one knows who infiltrated the Five Poison Sect and dared to confront the Five Poison Sect Leader."

"I... am aware."

"Oh?" Lu Ye showed interest and asked, "Whom does the Sect Leader think it is?"

"You!" The Red Cloud Fairy spoke bluntly, her gaze complex as she stared at Lu Ye and softly said, "I did not expect you to venture alone to the Five Poison Sect."

Seeing Lu Ye’s slight confusion as if wondering why she had come to this conclusion.

Then, the Red Cloud Fairy explained the earlier suspicions in her mind fully.

"Considering the above information, throughout the Northern Territory, aside from you, I can’t think of anyone else who could have done it."

"How is my analysis?"

After listening, Lu Ye pondered momentarily, then nodded and said, "Logical and convincing."

"Indeed, worthy of a Sect Leader."

Since the Red Cloud Fairy had already analyzed it this way, Lu Ye did not deny being the person involved.

The Red Cloud Fairy fixed her gaze on him: "So... it really is you?"

"You’ve guessed so precisely, if I were to deny it, would you believe it?" Lu Ye said indifferently.

"Of course... not." The Red Cloud Fairy shook her head, seemingly wanting to drown her sorrows in alcohol, but recalling the discomforting sensation in her throat, she gave up.

However, what puzzled the Red Cloud Fairy was...

Wasn’t it said that the Five Poison Sect Leader had supposedly achieved the genuine Grandmaster status, and this person infiltrated the sect and even fought the Sect Leader?

How is he appearing completely unscathed?

Could it be that he has reached the realm of being able to withstand a Mortal Realm Grandmaster?!

With the person involved right before her, she could not suppress her curiosity any longer.

After a moment of thought, the Red Cloud Fairy asked in confusion, "It’s rumored across the Northern Territory now that the Five Poison Sect Leader has become a Grandmaster. You fought him; is this true?"

"Indeed, he is undoubtedly a true Mortal Realm Grandmaster First Layer." Lu Ye nodded, "Moreover, he has already started refining the exclusive Grandmaster method, the power of Origin Veins."

This news was originally spread by Lu Ye.

Now the Red Cloud Sect Leader was inquiring, if she can be convinced and spreads it...

It would certainly cause great distress to the Five Poison Sect Leader.

Upon hearing this, the Red Cloud Fairy was shocked—did the Five Poison Sect Leader truly break through?!

"This matter is too significant; I must immediately convene the sect elders for a meeting discussion!"

The Red Cloud Fairy swiftly stashed the wine gourd into her storage ring and said, "I’ll come find you after I’ve finished this."

With that said, she rose into the air, ready to leave the next moment.

"Wait..."

Stopping the Red Cloud Fairy who was in mid-air, Lu Ye said, "Doesn’t the Red Cloud Sect have the Sect’s Treasure? If possible, it’s best to keep it with you."

The Red Cloud Fairy lowered her gaze to Lu Ye below and asked, "Why? The Sect’s Treasure is generally kept in the sect’s crucial area and is rarely taken out."

Lu Ye remained calm, as if discussing a trivial matter.

"Since I could infiltrate the Five Poison Sect and attack the Five Poison Sect Leader, I wouldn’t put it past him to do such a thing."

"He has become a Mortal Realm Grandmaster; without the Sect’s Treasure at hand... truly encountering him would be extremely dangerous."

Suddently, the Red Cloud Fairy’s face turned solemn.

Such words carry weight; if the Five Poison Sect Leader were to attack her, surviving three moves would be considered a victory!

"Thank you for the reminder, Master understands." She cast a deep look at Lu Ye, her attire fluttering in the wind as she vanished the next moment.

Watching the Red Cloud Fairy leave, Lu Ye felt the Heaven and Earth Source Qi filling up again and similarly returned to the cave to begin cultivation.

With the Five Poison Sect Leader achieving Grandmaster status, he too must break through this realm promptly!

...

Meanwhile, at the Wuxiang Sect.

"What? The Sect Leader of the Red Cloud Sect has taken in a new disciple and plans to hold the disciple acceptance ceremony in three days?"

In the Wuxiang Sect grand hall, upon hearing this news, the Sect Leader of the Wuxiang Sect fell into contemplation.

The Five Poison Sect Leader seems to have broken through, and recently, news has circulated that several small factions were mysteriously massacred overnight...

Not a single chicken survived the cataclysm across the entire sect.

With such developments, other forces realized the necessity of aligning with top-tier forces in the Northern Territory.

Although on the surface the top forces of the Northern Righteous Dao appear no longer a match for the Five Poison, these forces have deep-rooted legacies.

Aside from robust Mountain Protection Arrays, they also have the Sect’s Treasure!

"Since the Sect Leader of the Red Cloud Sect plans to accept disciples, our Wuxiang Sect cannot pretend ignorance. Therefore, arrange for elders to lead, take disciples from each peak, prepare ample gifts, and immediately head to the Red Cloud Sect to extend congratulations!"

After some thought, the Sect Leader of the Wuxiang Sect made a decision.

...

The Third Peak.

"Senior Sister Yu, Senior Sister Jiang, the sect has sent a message that inner and true disciples wishing to attend the disciple acceptance ceremony at the Red Cloud Sect can follow the flying boat to the Red Cloud Sect."

In front of a small courtyard, a hurried disciple cupped their fist and spoke.

After speaking, he didn’t linger much but continued to notify the next location.

Beside the small courtyard, Jiang Lingyue walked out curiously: "The Sect Leader of the Red Cloud Sect accepting a disciple?"

Yu Yu thought for a moment and said, "The Sect Leader of the Red Cloud Sect accepting a disciple, in fact, news about this had already spread a few days ago, and many major sects have heard of it."

"I heard that person completed, in less than a day of joining, a task known for its deadly difficulty and notorious among countless Red Cloud disciples—the Ten-Star Task!"

"Now, within the major sects, that Red Cloud Sect disciple named Lu Xuan has already become a notorious figure."

Jiang Lingyue was shocked; Lu Xuan?

From Senior Sister Yu’s tone, this appears to be an extraordinary person; could this person be even stronger than Su Wan, Senior Sister of Red Cloud Sect?

After all, she is not a member of the Red Cloud Sect and does not quite understand the specific difficulty of the Ten-Star Task in the Red Cloud Sect.

However, hearing this, Jiang Lingyue was slightly inclined to visit the Red Cloud Sect to witness and broaden her horizons.
