Xiao Xiaojin shook his head and said helplessly, “Long Xue recruited many sea demons in the sect, and many elders are demons now. The sects near Green Cloud Immortal Sect disliked it and sent elders to complain to our sect head, who is under great pressure.”
Xiao Jinting was speechless. When Dongcheng Yang agreed to take Long Xue, Xiao Jinting had a bad feeling, but he didn’t expect Long Xue to cause so much trouble.
Xu Muan propped his chin on his hand and listened to the conversation, adding, “Dongcheng Yang looks forward to your return to the sect. Whenever he meets me, he asks when you will be back.” He hadn’t been in the sect for a long time. Since Xiao Jinting left the sect, Xu Muan stayed with Li Yi at the Li house.
Xiao Jinting said, “Really? I didn’t know he misses me so much. Since he advanced to Nascent Soul, or earlier than that, Dongcheng Yang had been wary of him. Did he think Xiao Jinting can save the sect?”
Xiao Xiaojin asked, “Father, are you going back to take a look?”
“Well…”
When Xiao Jinting hesitated, Xiao Xiaojin received a message. “Father, the sect head knows that you are back, and he asks you to help him.”
Xiao Jinting was speechless.
When Xiao Jinting and Xu Muan went back to Green Cloud Immortal Sect, Dongcheng Yang went to the gate and greeted them.
He said excitedly, “Senior Xiao, Mr. Xu, you finally come back.”
“I haven’t been away for long.” One year was nothing to Nascent Souls.
Dongcheng Yang nodded and said, “Senior Xiao, you’ve been away for a short time, but Ms. Long is difficult. I feel that time is crawling these days.”
Xu Muan looked at Dongcheng Yang and said, “Mr. Dongcheng, you look haggard, but you are still a handsome man.”
Dongcheng Yang smiled wryly and said helplessly, “Elder Xu, please don’t make fun of me.”
Xu Muan said innocently, “Mr. Dongcheng, I mean it. I heard many cultivators have a crush on you.”
Dongcheng Yang said with a burning face, “Mr. Xu, you are kidding me.”
Dongcheng Yang took Xiao Jinting to the zoo. Xiao Jinting found quite some demonic beasts were gone. Two demons that had not transformed into humans sat there and ate the beasts with gusto.
The two sea demons put down the half-finished beast and swiftly sneaked away at the sight of Xiao Jinting.
Dongcheng Yang said bitterly, “Ms. Long brought into the sect a few trusted followers, who kept eating the beasts in our zoo. They almost ate up all the beasts.”
Xiao Jinting was speechless.
Dongcheng Yang took Xiao Jinting to a lake.
The Fairy Lake of Green Cloud Immortal Sect was a place where the sect kept the aquatic plants and precious fish. When the mist went up, the lake looked like a fairyland.
“The Fairy Lake is our sacred place. Long Xue’s followers bathed here and ate up the spiritual fish and plants in the lake.”
The lake used to be rich in spiritual Qi, and countless lotus flowers bloomed in it, but now the water was murky, and a few withered lotus leaves were floating on the surface.
Long Xue and her followers were sea demons and liked water, but there was only a lake in the sect, and they didn’t have enough places to entertain themselves.
Xiao Jinting followed Dongcheng Yang to a palace. The latter said, “Ms. Long’s followers like drinking. One day, they got drunk and started a fight. They crushed the palace.
Xiao Jinting was speechless. Dongcheng Yang had invited a wolf into the house.
Dongcheng Yang said with dismay, “Senior Xiao, Ms. Long Xue and her followers are too difficult.”
Looking at the depression on Dongcheng Yang’s face, Xiao Jinting rubbed his nose helplessly. The head of Green Cloud Immortal Sect used to be refined and composed, but now he looked depressed and anxious like a poor old man.
Dongcheng Yang said eagerly, “Senior Xiao, please help me. If this continues, the sect will be ruined by them.”
Xiao Jinting was lost for words. He thought Long Xue had caused too much trouble.
He said helplessly, “Mr. Dongcheng, Long Xue is so ferocious that I can’t keep her under control.” Long Xue was the tyrant of Nebula, and she killed countless demons to be the queen. Both humans and demons in Nebula were scared of her.
Dongcheng Yang grabbed Xiao Jinting by the sleeve and said eagerly, “Senior Xiao, that’s not true. Everyone knows that you beat off the Deity Transformation of Ice Palace.”
Xiao Jinting said helplessly, “Mr. Dongcheng, that is only a rumor, and it’s not true. Rumor has it that I have three heads and six arms, but I have only one head and two arms.”
Dongcheng Yang turned chalk-white as if it was the end of the world.
Xiao Xiaojin crossed his arms and said confidently, “I have an idea.”
Xiao Jinting looked at him and asked, “Son, do you have any good ideas?”
Xiao Xiaojin said leisurely, “Make someone marry her.”
Xiao Jinting was speechless. It was a good idea to give the trouble to someone else. Some blind guys with odd tastes had a crush on Long Xue, but was she willing to marry one of them? If this woman wanted to marry someone stronger than her, she had to marry those Deity Transformation cultivators.
Dongcheng Yang’s eyes lit up, but soon they dimmed.
Xiao Jinting glanced at him and thought, “Dongcheng Yang might have realized that it’s not easy to make someone marry such a ferocious woman.”
Xiao Xiaojin asked in confusion, “Why don’t you say anything? Don’t you like my idea?”
Xiao Jinting said helplessly, “Son, we can’t make her marry as we like.”
Xiao Xiaojin shook his head and said, “But she’s old enough to get married.”
Xiao Jinting was lost for words. How to get Long Xue to see things that way?
He looked at Xu Muan and thought things would be easier if Long Xue was half gentle as Xu Muan.
