Chapter 104: The Joyful Union Sect’s Unusual Movement
Without the system causing trouble, this period of time was very peaceful. Su Yan had returned to his old days. However, the good times did not last long.
One day, a messenger jade slip flew into the room, and Bai Shuixin’s voice sounded.
“Yan’er, come and see me at once.”
This scene was very familiar. It seemed that a few months ago, his Master had summoned him in the same way.
“At that time, she wanted me to pick up my junior sister and bring her back to the sect. What does she want me to do this time?”
Su Yan thought his Master had something for him, perhaps another mission. But when he arrived at Bai Shuixin’s residence, he found that something seemed to be wrong.
“Eldest Senior Sister, Third Senior Sister, Little Junior Sister, did Master summon you too?”
Su Yan was a little surprised. In the spacious room, Xiao Wu, Ling Ling, and Lin Qingyue were all there. They each occupied a corner of the room. Seeing Su Yan enter, they all smiled and greeted him.
Xiao Wu said, “You were also summoned by Master, Junior Brother. It seems something big has happened.”
Ling Ling said, “I haven’t heard of any major events recently. Could it be an unknown secret matter?”
Lin Qingyue did not participate in the discussion. Instead, she waved at Su Yan and said with a smile, “Senior Brother, Senior Brother, come over here. I have a spot for you.”
Hearing the summons, Su Yan walked over to Lin Qingyue and sat down.
Seeing this, Ling Ling’s eyes turned cold, and Xiao Wu’s eyes flickered.
Su Yan didn’t notice the change in their expressions. He looked up and said curiously, “Why did you stop discussing? What did Master summon us for?”
“I’m not in the mood anymore,” Ling Ling said coldly.
“Let’s just let Master say it herself,” Xiao Wu’s expression was listless, having lost the interest to speak.
Su Yan found it very strange. They had been so enthusiastic just now. Why had they suddenly fallen silent?
“You’re here.”
A clear female voice sounded. Su Yan only felt a blur before his eyes, and Bai Shuixin appeared before them.
“Master!”
The few of them stood up and bowed in salute.
“There are no outsiders here. Sit down. No need for formalities.”
Bai Shuixin gestured with her hand, then walked to the main seat and sat down. She said, “I’ve called you here this time because the sect has a mission. This mission is unusual and extremely dangerous, even involving a Spirit Transformation cultivator.”
Hearing this, Su Yan was extremely shocked. A Spirit Transformation cultivator was a top-tier power in the cultivation world. To be involved with such an existence, what did she want with him? Even his senior sisters wouldn’t be of any use, right?
Xiao Wu said with a puzzled expression, “We shouldn’t be qualified to participate in a mission of this level, right?”
Xiao Wu knew her own limits. She was only at the third realm of the immortal path. Even with all her secret techniques and magic treasures, at most, she could only fight with a fourth-realm cultivator.
A great Spirit Transformation cultivator was a terrifying existence of the eighth realm. How could she possibly be their opponent!
“Don’t worry. You are all my precious disciples. How could I let you go to your deaths?”
Bai Shuixin explained, “This mission is not for individuals. It involves the entire sect. You are not the main force and will not even go to the main battlefield. You are just going to cheer them on. Someone will naturally deal with that person.”
Under Bai Shuixin’s explanation, everyone understood the specific situation of the mission.
It turned out that the opponent this time was none other than the Joyful Union Sect. They had provoked someone they shouldn’t have, and the immortal sects had decided to teach them a lesson and besiege them.
“Fight the Joyful Union Sect? That’s great!”
Hearing this, Su Yan’s eyes lit up. The Joyful Union Sect was notorious. As long as they were beautiful men and women, they all hated this sect deeply. But because the enemy was powerful, they were helpless. Now that someone was taking the lead, how could they miss the opportunity to beat a drowning dog!
“Yan’er, don’t make a noise. Continue to listen to me.”
Bai Shuixin gestured with her hand, and Su Yan felt his head being tapped. He quickly and obediently closed his mouth.
Bai Shuixin continued, “The Joyful Union Sect has become more and more ostentatious these years, acting without any scruples. It’s time to teach them a lesson. This is also the opinion of all of us.”
The Joyful Union Sect was a demonic sect that specialized in training beautiful men and women to be sent to the major sects to stabilize their own status.
But there were only so many beautiful men and women, and they wouldn’t just fall from the sky. As a demonic sect, the Joyful Union Sect naturally used dishonorable means.
The men and women who could be bought with money would not be of high quality. The Joyful Union Sect liked to steal and snatch people the most. Sooner or later, something would happen.
And so, the Joyful Union Sect had recently been looking for cauldron candidates and had accidentally abducted the child of an immortal sect elder. This had made her furious, and she had called on her friends to crusade against the demonic sect.
“Immortal Qingxu is also an old-timer in the cultivation world. She has a very high reputation in the various immortal sects. Our sect has responded to her call and decided to contribute, to boost her momentum.”
Bai Shuixin looked at the few disciples before her and said, “I’ve called you here this time to have you act together and go and see the world. Although you won’t go to the important battlefield, the level of danger is still very high. Xiao Wu, as the Eldest Senior Sister, you must protect your junior brother and junior sister well.”
“Your disciple understands!”
Xiao Wu glanced at Su Yan and said with determination.
Bai Shuixin then instructed them on many other matters.
Su Yan learned that the reason for besieging the Joyful Union Sect this time was not only because the daughter of an immortal sect elder had been captured, but more so because the Joyful Union Sect’s actions were outrageous and had already angered the heavens and the people. This incident was just a spark that had ignited the powder keg.
“The various immortal sects have three objectives in this operation. The first is to rescue the captured hostages. The second is to suppress the Joyful Union Sect. The third is to deter the demonic sects. The process may not be smooth. You must be very careful.”
Hearing this, a strong sense of vigilance rose in Su Yan’s heart. So it wasn’t just the Joyful Union Sect, but also the demonic sects watching from behind?
Thinking carefully, it was very normal.
Although they were nominally cauldrons, if they were lucky and were taken a fancy to by a demonic sect big shot, they would become their bed partners. Then, with a little pillow talk, it would be a matter of course to protect their own sect.
As for being a cauldron, they had already been sold by the sect. Why would they still protect the sect…
“The Joyful Union Sect’s brainwashing methods are superb, and there are too many strange and wonderful techniques in the cultivation world.”
Su Yan walked out of the room with a heavy heart.
Xiao Wu followed and said softly, “Are you worried, Junior Brother? Are you scared? Don’t worry. As long as I’m here, no one can hurt you.”
Ling Ling also walked over and patted her chest. “And me!”
Lin Qingyue’s face was slightly red, but she also expressed her feelings.
“Although my strength is weak, I will also work hard to protect Senior Brother.”
Hearing the three of them, Su Yan didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. It was one thing for his Eldest Senior Sister and Third Senior Sister, but what was his little junior sister joining in for?
“I’m not scared. It’s just the first time I’ve encountered something like this, so I’m a little nervous.”
Looking at the three women before him, Su Yan was very moved in his heart.
Someone cared about him, someone swore to protect him. This was something he had never encountered before.
