Chapter 1897 - Difficulties
“Senior Brother, you don’t seem to be surprised by this matter,” Chen Feng asked with puzzlement when he saw Lin Yun’s expression.
The reason why he smiled was because he was the mastermind who hung Zhang Yue on the tree. So how would he be shocked by something he did?
“Those who humiliate naturally have to be prepared to be humiliated. He deserved it, so why would I be surprised? Let’s go and look at him,” Lin Yun said indifferently, and he led the Indigo Thunder Peak’s disciples to the Profound Maiden Courtyard.
“How was he discovered?” He asked.
“Hehe, that’s a coincidence. He was discovered by a disciple passing by, not by the Profound Maiden Courtyard’s disciples.”
“That person wanted to remove him from the tree, but Zhang Yue had a restriction ced on him, and he yelled not to let anyone touch him,” the Indigo Thunder Peak’s disciples shared.
“Oh?” Lin Yun feigned not to know about this matter.
“That’s true. Even a Quasi-Saint can’t do anything about it. When the Profound Maiden Courtyard was opened, this matter was instantly known to everyone within the Heavenly Dao Sect in less than half an incense of time.”
“Senior Brother, hurry up, or we won’t have space to watch.” The Indigo Thunder Peak’s disciples urged.
It was just as they said. The surroundings were filled with people when they came to the Profound Maiden Courtyard. Everyone from the two pces, three courtyards, and a hundred and eight peaks was here. The Profound Maiden Courtyard’s gates couldn’t bepared to the Heavenly Dao Altar, so this ce was packed with people.
Lin Yun’s group found a spot and saw Zhang Yue hanging naked on an ancient tree by a rope.
“It’s really Senior Brother Zhang Yue!”
“Hahaha, look at the tortoise doodle on his face! Hahaha!”
“Wait, words are written on Senior Brother Zhang Yue’s back!” Someone spoke out.
“‘I’m sinful and shouldn’t have peeked on the Dragon Origin Great Saint showering.’”
“Hahaha, are you serious?!”
“Hehe, Senior Brother Zhang ispletely exposed… It turns out to be so small…”
“Hahaha!” Everyoneughed aloud because this scene was too interesting, and they could not endure it.
“Stopughing! All of you, stopughing!” The Dao Yang Pce’s disciples around Zhang Yue roared with their faces pale.
“What’s the matter? He peeked at the Dragon Origin Great Saint showering, and we can’t talk about it?”
“Those from the Dao Yang Pce really have a fiery temper.”
“Heh, a saint’s disciple? He’s still stripped and hung on a tree. Wasn’t he awe-inspiring yesterday?” Those who the Dao Yang Pce usually bullied spoke up.
“Quick, get me down!” Zhang Yue struggled on the tree with shame on his face.
“Hehe, it’s him!” Right then, the Profound Maiden Courtyard’s gate opened, and a series of chuckles resounded as the Profound Maiden Courtyard’s disciples came out. They already couldn’t hold back their curiosity a long time ago, but they had reservations before because of their master.
“He’s really stripped naked.”
“Speaking of which, don’t you think that Senior Brother Zhang’s butt is really white and round?”
“So small…”
“Hahaha!” The Profound Maiden Courtyard’s female disciples were a lot bolder and would asionally sneak a peek before discussing amongst themselves.
“Cover me up!” Zhang Yue said with shame covering his face.
“Senior Brother, we can’t touch you. If we do, the shackles on you will break, and your life will be in danger. The elders have already gone to look for a saint. So bear with it for now,” the Dao Yang Pce’s disciples helplessly said.
The few Quasi-Saints who came were so furious that they wanted to throw out a mouthful of blood while looking at Zhang Yue. But they discovered that they couldn’t touch Zhang Yue at all or cover him up. Thus, they could only return to the Dao Yang Pce and invite a Saint Elder.
“The Dao Yang Pce’s Saint Elder is here!” Someone eximed.
Right then, three figures enveloped in saint aura descended from the sky. They all donned blue robes, and the one leading was the Saint Elder of the Dao Yang Pce, Tu You, also known as the Nether ughter Saint Sovereign.
“Master, save me!” Zhang Yue yelled upon seeing the Saint Elder.
“Tu You, your Dao Yang Pce better give me an exnation for what happened today. Hanging in front of my Profound Maiden Courtyard’s gate buck naked. What are you guys trying to do?” Before Saint Elder Tu You was going to make a move, a woman came out from the Profound Maiden Courtyard.
“Serene Dust Great Saint!” An exmation resounded from the surroundings, and everyone became quiet. The Serene Dust Great Saint was notorious within the Heavenly Dao Sect, and she had crippled a few saint’s disciples in the past. She was infamous for her brutality.
Ye Xinyan was standing beside her, and she soon discovered Ye Qingtian, who was amongst the crowd. But the other party seemed to be avoiding her by shifting his gaze away the moment their eyes bumped. She discovered that Ye Qigntian wasn’t like the rumors, making her fall into deep thoughts.
Saint Elder Tu You wore an awkward expression, and said, “Serene Dust Great Saint, someone is clearly behind this. Zhang Yue is my disciple, and I believe he won’t do something as humiliating as this.”
“Last night, an intruder was discovered by the patrolling elders, and I suspect that person did this.” This matter concerned the face of the Dao Yang Pce, and Saint Elder Tu You could only toughen his scalp despite the fury zing within his pupils.
“Master, save me! I’m innocent!” Zhang Yue yelled from the tree.
The corner of Lin Yun’s lips twitched within the crowd. Everyone knew that someone had done this to Zhang Yue, but that wouldn’t affect Zhang Yue bing aughingstock within the Heavenly Dao Sect. Zhang Yue was ranked within the top ten amongst the saint disciples in the Dao Yang Pce, possessing the mespirit Saint Physique. This meant that he had excellent prospects ahead of him.
But the fact that he was humiliated in this way proved that he was a piece of garbage. Thus, despite his talent, he was destined to be aughingstock within the Heavenly Dao Sect.
Lin Yun wore a faint smile as he watched from the crowd.
“Serene Dust Great Saint, I’ll investigate this matter well and give the Profound Maiden Courtyard an exnation,” the Nether ughter Saint Sovereign said. Before the Serene Dust Great Saint said anything, the Nether ughter Saint Sovereign released an outburst of saint aura before reaching out with his finger.
Crimson threads also appeared on Zhang Yue’s body. When the threads appeared, the Serene Dust Great Saint and Nether ughter Saint Sovereign reached out, grabbing a portion of the crimson threads.
“The Soul Locking Threads… This is an ancient method. Zhang Yue, what happenedst night, and who did you offend?” The Nether ughter Saint Sovereign asked coldly.
Zhang Yue was putting on clothes and quickly replied, “Master, I was cultivatingst night within the Dao Yang Pce the whole time. I was already hanging on the tree when I woke up.”
His reply made the Serene Dust Great Saint’s face sink with a cold light shing across her pupils. But just when she was about to make a move, the Nether ughter Saint Sovereign pped Zhang Yue, and he roared, “How dare you lie before the Serene Dust Great Saint! If you stayed within the Dao Yang Pce the whole time, no one could bring you away without causing amotion!”
He was signaling to Zhang Yue that the Serene Dust Great Saint hated liars the most, and Zhang Yue would lose at least a limb if the Serene Dust Great Saint made a move.
The p made half of Zhang Yue’s face swollen, and tears rolled down his cheeks. Most importantly, a Great Saint and a Saint Sovereign’s attention was on him, and the pressure they gave off nearly made him copse. In the end, Zhang Yue looked at the Nether Azure Saint Sovereign and begged, “Master, I have my difficulties. Can I tell you about it when we get back?”
“Speak!” The Serene Dust Great Saint said without any expression on her face. When she roared, she gave off a powerful saint aura that made Zhang Yue throw out a mouthful of blood, making his face pale. But even when facing immense pressure, Zhang Yue still gritted his teeth and said nothing.
The Nether ughter Saint Sovereign’s eyes flickered. He sensed that there must be a story, and his face changed.
“Tu You, your disciple is pretty stubborn to keep his mouth shut even when I asked him to speak!” The Serene Dust Great Saint turned to coldly look at the Nether ughter Saint Sovereign.
Facing the Serene Dust Great Saint’s unhappiness, the Nether ughter Saint Sovereign could only toughen his scalp and said, “Zhang Yue, speak up. With me around, you don’t have to be afraid of anything.”
“I… I… I have my difficulties…” Zhang Yue was on the verge of crying and lowered his head.
