After Defying the Villain’s Fate for Nine Lifetimes, the Heroines Turn Mad!

Chapter 114



Seeing the Jiuyan Old Ancestor staring straight at him, sometimes smiling and sometimes nodding, Jiang Chen became even more convinced that the old man was ill!

The plot was collapsing.

Neither in the original story nor in the nine cycles of reincarnation had there ever been a plot where the Jiuyan Old Ancestor wanted to take him as a disciple.

There was something wrong with the Old Ancestor’s character setting.

Fortunately, Jiang Chen had gotten used to the collapsing plot.

After a brief shock, he replied, “No matter what happens and no matter the outcome, my master is only Xiao Hongyi!”

These words once again silenced everyone.

Standing still, Xiao Hongyi was incredibly moved.

No matter how many lives, no matter how negligent she had been as a master, her eldest disciple had never given up on her.

This further confirmed her decision to take Jiang Chen away from the Jiuyan Sect!

Although the Old Ancestor’s behavior was somewhat abnormal, she really didn’t want Jiang Chen to continue staying in this place full of misunderstandings.

As for Lin Feng, she would find another way to deal with him.

The elders and disciples of the Ninth Peak still looked at Jiang Chen unfavorably, but at least at this moment, they admired him.

This was an incredible opportunity for a cultivator, yet Jiang Chen had directly refused!

With his actions, he embodied the saying, “Once a Master, always a Master.”

It was also worth it for Xiao Hongyi who would rather burn her own phoenix blood to save him.

Gu Changqing, however, was skeptical, thinking that Jiang Chen must be up to some trick…

As for the Jiuyan Old Ancestor.

He wasn’t surprised by Jiang Chen’s response.

He knew better than anyone the deep bond between Xiao Hongyi and Jiang Chen, the master and disciple.

The reason he offered to take a disciple was simply to make a statement.

A statement for Jiang Chen to see, as well as for that mysterious power helping Jiang Chen.

Moreover, if this matter spread, it would also have a deterrent effect, preventing the sect’s higher-ups from arbitrarily punishing Jiang Chen.

“Well then, I, as the Old Ancestor, indeed have no reason to snatch a disciple from the younger generation,” the Jiuyan Old Ancestor conceded readily.

He closed his eyes slightly and then said, “Everyone, leave the main peak.”

Although they did not understand why, the crowd hurriedly left.

Regaining the ability to move, Xiao Hongyi wanted to take Jiang Chen and leave the Jiuyan Sect immediately.

But just as she was about to act, she realized that the phoenix fire within her had disappeared, and her consciousness became blurry.

“Jiang Chen, let’s return to the Ninth Peak first,” she said while struggling to hide her discomfort.

“Okay.”

Jiang Chen had no objections.

The master and disciple walked side by side in silence.

As they walked, Jiang Chen noticed something was off.

The aura belonging to Xiao Hongyi suddenly vanished, leaving only a scorching residue.

He stopped abruptly and turned his head to look.

Xiao Hongyi stared blankly ahead, his expressionless face and hollow eyes resembling those of a puppet.

Occasionally, trails of phoenix fire would rise from her pale skin.

Jiang Chen felt a pang of pain in his heart.

He knew that the time of Blood Burning had ended. At this moment, Xiao Hongyi had completely lost her consciousness and reduced to a mere vessel for the phoenix blood.

Yet, even so… If he walked, Xiao Hongyi would follow. If he stopped, Xiao Hongyi would stop as well.

It was an instinct. An instinct that seemed to have taken countless years to develop.

“Sigh.”

Jiang Chen let out a long breath and took a step forward, lifting Xiao Hongyi up with both hands.

“Master, I’ll take you back,” he whispered softly.

Xiao Hongyi couldn’t hear him. Though she couldn’t hear him, she still instinctively rested her head against Jiang Chen’s body.

The next second.

Jiang Chen stepped on an azure lotus, shortening three steps into two, and in an instant, he left the main peak to head toward the Ninth Peak.

Behind him followed a group of Ninth Peak elders and disciples, chasing after him as if injected with adrenaline.

“Jiang Chen! This is an act of impropriety! Put down the master of the Ninth Peak at once!” the Great Elder of the Ninth Peak Lu Yang shouted as he pursued.

Suddenly.

“Boom!!”

A thunderous noise that shook the heavens and the earth erupted.

Lu Yang and the others were startled by the sound and stopped to look back.

What they saw left them as if they had seen a ghost.

The main peak, hundreds of feet tall, had somehow detached itself from the ground and was slowly rising into the air, bringing with it countless rocks and soil, instantly filling the sky with dust and smoke.

Then.

“Boom!!”

Another earth-shattering noise, even more violent than the last.

When the dust settled, everyone could see clearly.

The main peak had fallen!

It lay overturned on the ground as if it had been flipped over!

“As I always keep my word, it must be overturned since I said I would overturn the main peak!” the voice of the Jiuyang Ancestor came.

“…gulp.”

Lu Yang and the others swallowed hard.

Too brutal, too impulsive!

That was the main peak, hundreds of zhang tall and the face of the sect!

And now, old Ancestor had overturned it just like that!

The most shocked were the Sect Master Gu Changqing and the others from the main peak who had just woken up from their daze.

They stood dumbfounded, their hair disheveled by the hurricane caused by the overturning of the peak.

The only question in their minds was:

With the main peak gone, where should they go?

Although the Jiuyan Sect had other unnamed peaks, without exception, all were barren.

Were they supposed to sleep on the streets until the reconstruction was complete?

Suddenly, eleven figures of Supreme Elders appeared in front of Gu Changqing.

In fact, the sky-covering red net capable of destroying the sect had already been shattered by the Supreme Elders.

They had not shown themselves earlier because the Old Ancestor had emerged from his coffin, and they dared not steal the limelight from the Old Ancestor.

But at this moment, the main peak had been overturned by the Old Ancestor?

This was a huge deal!

One of the Supreme Elders, with a stern face, pointed at Gu Changqing’s nose and scolded loudly: “What on earth have you done as the Sect Master to enrage the Old Ancestor to this extent?!”

“I… I don’t know either!” Gu Changqing said with a look of grievance.

Right now, he still didn’t know what he had done wrong.

As the Sect Master, he only wanted to help the sect eliminate hidden dangers and show his worth.

That’s why he had Jiang Chen arrested and questioned after obtaining conclusive evidence.

But now…

The main peak was gone, and so was the Hall of Enforcement.

Was he wrong?

Glancing at the overturned main peak, Gu Changqing felt that he must have been wrong.

But the question was, where exactly did he go wrong?

Blinking blankly, Gu Changqing began to doubt his life.

The only thing he was sure of now was that he had underestimated the Ninth Peak!

He had thought that the Ninth Peak had only three madmen.

Little did he know, there was an even crazier master of the Ninth Peak, as well as the equally abnormal elders and disciples of the Ninth Peak!

In short, there was not a single normal person in the Ninth Peak. They were all madmen!

Just as this thought settled, the voice of the Jiuyan old Ancestor emerged in everyone’s minds again.

“Li Fadu has overcorrected, harshly punished the sect’s genius, and is stripped of his position as the elder of the Hall of Enforcement and Sword Peak.”

“Gu Changqing has failed in his duties, to be imprisoned in the sect’s dungeon for over a month.”

“The Hall of Enforcement is the foundation of the sect and must not be neglected.”

“From now on, Jiang Chen, the first true disciple of the Ninth Peak, will take over the Hall of Enforcement! No one is to interfere with the affairs of the Ninth Peak!”

“Violators will be expelled from the sect!”

The entire Jiuyan Sect was filled with question marks!

Jiang Chen taking over the Hall of Enforcement? What kind of joke was this?

“Those who object will also be expelled from the sect,” the Jiuyan old Ancestor said again.

After a brief silence, apart from the Ninth Peak, the Peak Masters, elders, and disciples of the other peaks bowed and shouted in unison.

“…We will respectfully comply with the Old Ancestor’s decree.”

‘In the future, I must stay away from those madmen of the Ninth Peak,’ Gu Changqing decided in his heart as the corner of his mouth twitched.
