Supreme Emptiness-Chapter 412 - Isnt the Master the Same

Chapter 412: Chapter 412: Isn’t the Master the Same?

Chapter 412: Chapter 412: Isn’t the Master the Same?

The outsiders all said that the Desires Sect practiced dual cultivation and harbored all sorts of filth.

But the Supreme Sect Master knew very well.

This was just the surface.

The Desires Sect was a sect that cultivated the mind, and the joy between men and women was only the pursuit of some disciples.

Elders, Sect Masters, and Supreme Elders pursued pleasures of a higher level.

The Desires Sect Master especially so.

To this day, no rumors of any improper relations between the Desires Sect Master and any man had ever reached his ears.

In terms of purity, he was by no means inferior to the Spirit Beast Sect Master, Gong Caiyi.

“So it was you, it’s been a long time!”

The Supreme Sect Master quickly concealed his anger, displaying a warm, jade-like demeanor:

“The last time we met, it was three years ago, wasn’t it?”

“I hope you’ve been well.”

Yue Mingzhu sighed heavily.

What she feared had come to pass.

She couldn’t feign ignorance any longer.

She cast a light glance at him and said indifferently:

“What does the Supreme Sect Master want with Jiang Fan?”

“With such a murderous look, did Jiang Fan do something to harm the Supreme Sect?”

“To provoke you to take action personally?”

What she had said earlier, that she didn’t like the Supreme Sect Master, was not a lie.

The reason being.

Aside from when they were both young, and the Supreme Sect Master had relentlessly pursued her.

The main reason was that he was narrow-minded.

Many times, matters between disciples should be resolved by themselves.

If not, the elders could intervene.

But this Supreme Sect Master… would often jump out to protect his disciples.

A matter that wasn’t too significant would become a big issue.

Making neither side look good.

She had repeatedly instructed the elders of the Desires Sect.

To restrain their disciples and avoid getting too close to the elite disciples of the Supreme Sect.

To avoid conflicts of interest that could prompt the Supreme Sect Master to step in.

And here it was.

For some unknown reason, the Supreme Sect Master had once again jumped out to block Jiang Fan.

Without the slightest regard for his identity as a Sect Master.

How could Yue Mingzhu like such a person!

The Supreme Sect Master’s face stiffened for a moment, but he laughed: “You’re joking, how could a Sect Master like me find trouble with a mere disciple?”

Jiang Fan looked at him with a strange expression.

Do you even believe what you are saying?

Just for defeating a few of your disciples, you reported me to the Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion.

He rubbed his nose and asked in confusion: “Then why did the Supreme Sect Master stop me?”

The murderous look from earlier was clearly not fake.

The Supreme Sect Master stood there for a moment, stunned.

After two deep breaths, an idea struck him, and he turned and shouted: “Li Shiqian! Come over here!”

Huh?

Squatting in the distance, watching the scene with excitement.

Prepared to witness firsthand how Jiang Fan would be severely punished, kneeling and crying for mercy, Li Shiqian.

Was momentarily stunned.

This tone… sounds so familiar?

Hesitant, she walked over nervously, saying: “Sect Master.”

The Supreme Sect Master kicked her to kneel on the ground and said: “Do you know why I brought you here?”

“You slandered and framed Jiang Fan, showing no remorse, and even threatened him in my name!”

“Now start kowtowing and apologizing!”

Li Shiqian blinked her eyes.

Wait!

Didn’t you bring me here to watch you punish Jiang Fan?

Making me kneel and kowtow.

What does this mean?

“What are you standing there for?” The Supreme Sect Master pressed her head, making her kowtow three times.

Giving Li Shiqian stars in her eyes.

This sequence was all too familiar!

Always promising to take revenge for her with murderous intent.

Only to turn the blade on her!

She couldn’t hold it in any longer.

Tears of grievance streamed down her face as she began to cry.

“Boohoo… Boohoo…”

The Supreme Sect Master turned to Jiang Fan and said: “Jiang Fan, you have seen it.”

“She is crying in repentance, she must be sincerely remorseful.”

“Let it go this time, and don’t hold it against her.”

Uh—

Jiang Fan rubbed his nose, looking bewildered: “This… really isn’t necessary.”

“Vice Pavilion Master Ye already punished her, and Senior Brother Hua even brought her to apologize to me.”

“There’s really no need for this.”

He even felt a bit sympathetic towards Li Shiqian.

The matter had already passed, and he had not pursued it, yet the people of the Supreme Sect insisted on holding Li Shiqian accountable.

The Supreme Sect Master said with a serious face: “This is to make an example of her, to serve as a warning to others!”

“Li Shiqian’s actions not only tarnished the reputation of our sect but also violated the conduct of the Supreme Sect.”

“Any form of apology is not too much!”

Jiang Fan helped Li Shiqian up and said:

“Alright, alright, you don’t need to make things difficult for her anymore.”

“I have long since let it go.”

“Take her back to rest.”

“Her head is bleeding from the kowtowing.”

As he spoke, he took out some healing ointment and applied it to her forehead.

Li Shiqian cried even harder.

She threw herself into Jiang Fan’s arms: “Boohoo… Junior Brother Jiang…”

The Sect Master and Senior Brother treated her so badly.

Yet even an enemy showed more concern for her.

No, he wasn’t an enemy anymore.

Jiang Fan was the one who truly cared for her!

Uh—

Jiang Fan was a bit flustered.

He patted her shoulder and comforted her with a few words.

Then he said: “Supreme Sect Master, is there anything else?”

“My friend and I have to continue our journey and cannot afford any delays.”

The Supreme Sect Master sighed.

He had wanted to say a few more words to the Desires Sect Master, but she had been avoiding him all these years.

Even meeting her was difficult.

Thankfully, with his maneuvers today, he had managed to restore his image in front of the Desires Sect Master.

“You may go, have a safe journey!”

He watched as Jiang Fan and Yue Mingzhu rode Bai and disappeared into the vast snowfield.

Only then did he come back to his senses.

Just in time to hear Hua Xiangchen muttering, barely audible: “And you told me to watch carefully.”

“You’re just like me.”

Grit—

The Supreme Sect Master clenched his fist.

The little brat dared to talk back?

But he had no face to confront him and could only pretend not to hear, silently returning.

Li Shiqian wiped away her tears and followed without a word.

Hua Xiangchen consoled: “Junior Sister, don’t be sad.”

“We’ll find another chance to deal with Jiang Fan.”

Hearing this.

Li Shiqian quickly distanced herself and said: “You go by yourself, don’t involve me.”

She was scared.

Hua Xiangchen said awkwardly: “Junior Sister, you can’t blame me and the Master.”

“It’s all Jiang Fan’s fault…”

Before he could finish, he was interrupted by Li Shiqian.

“Don’t speak ill of Junior Brother Jiang!” Li Shiqian glared at him in disgust.

Hua Xiangchen was stunned.

Wait, I’m speaking in your favor!

How did I become the bad guy here?

“Junior Sister, Jiang Fan is the reason you ended up in this predicament!” Hua Xiangchen reminded her heavily.

Li Shiqian snorted lightly and, after hesitating for a moment, said:

“Actually… think about it carefully, it was my fault.”

“I should have apologized in the first place.”

“If I had, none of this would have happened.”

“This isn’t Junior Brother Jiang’s fault.”

“He’s a good person, someone truly worthy of associating with.”

Ah?

Hua Xiangchen was dumbfounded.

So, Jiang Fan became a good person.

Then doesn’t that make me the bad guy?

He complained: “Master, did you hear what Junior Sister Li just said!”

The Supreme Sect Master walking ahead paused and turned his head to say:

“Xiangchen, you should try to befriend Jiang Fan more in the future.”

The disciple who the Desires Sect Master personally accompanied on a mission must be someone she valued highly.

To gain the Desires Sect Master’s favor.

He could start with this young disciple.

Hua Xiangchen was stunned once again.

He felt as if the world had changed dramatically overnight.

Li Shiqian was a bit skeptical.

The last time Hua Xiangchen’s attitude changed suddenly, it was because he discovered how strong Jiang Fan was and decided to make an example of her.

This time, why did the Sect Master’s attitude change?

She thought of the girl riding Bai and muttered:

“Could it be that the Sect Master has his eyes on Jiang Fan’s woman?”

With a woman’s intuition, she felt that Jiang Fan and that woman couldn’t just be ordinary friends.

The Supreme Sect Master’s ears twitched.

His heart skipped a beat.

But recalling their seniority, he chuckled:

“What are you thinking?”

“That woman is the Desires Sect Master, Yue Mingzhu!”

“How could she have anything to do with a mere disciple?”
