Chapter 1328: Chapter 1327: An Incomparably Correct Choice
Were it not for Su Changfeng, how could they have their current fortunes? Moreover, they each still have a Red Fruit that they haven’t consumed yet, leaving room for their strength to improve. Moreover, if they wish to grow stronger in the future, they must rely on Su Changfeng.
"Do you know why the Pavilion Master of Lingxiao Pavilion exists?" At this moment, Han Xue suddenly walked up to Yin Zhengyuan and asked faintly.
Yin Zhengyuan frowned, why does the Pavilion Master of Lingxiao Pavilion exist? Naturally, it is to govern Lingxiao Pavilion; could there be any other purpose?
"Han Xue, what do you mean? Are you deliberately stalling for time?" Yin Zhengyuan spoke coldly.
Han Xue sighed with some helplessness. Since she set foot in Tuo Shi, some memories in her mind have resurfaced. She recalled many things, including the meaning of Tuo Shi’s existence and the significance of Lingxiao Pavilion and Shangyun Pavilion.
But perhaps only she knows these things now, because so much time has passed, and Tuo Shi is no longer the Tuo Shi of old.
"You are no longer fit to be the Pavilion Master of Lingxiao Pavilion. From today on, you will start as an ordinary disciple." Han Xue said.
Upon hearing this, Yin Zhengyuan laughed even harder. This Han Xue, who does she think she is? A mundane woman who just arrived in Tuo Shi, claiming such absurd words—what could she possibly meddle in Tuo Shi’s affairs?
"Han Xue, are you crazy? How could a woman like you meddle in Tuo Shi’s affairs?" Yin Zhengyuan said with disdain.
Han Xue took a step forward without haste, but that one step brought her directly in front of Yin Zhengyuan, as if she had used some mystical technique!
Yin Zhengyuan’s eyes widened. He had not expected that the ordinary-looking woman in front of him would possess such prowess. Even he could not discern Han Xue’s movements; in merely a blink, Han Xue stood before him.
Yin Zhengyuan instinctively retreated a few steps, initially trying to distance himself from Han Xue, but was horrified to find that no matter how he stepped back, Han Xue remained in front of him, even though it seemed she hadn’t moved at all.
"What’s going on? Who... who are you?" Yin Zhengyuan looked at Han Xue, terrified, finally realizing that Han Xue’s intent to punish him was not just boastful talk.
"The Pavilion Master of Lingxiao Pavilion exists not for personal gain, but to lead and charge into battle." Han Xue said flatly.
An indescribable pressure enveloped Yin Zhengyuan in an instant. The next moment, he felt his body lifting into the air, akin to a kite with a broken string, flying straight backward.
The opponent was merely a mundane woman, yet she left Yin Zhengyuan, the Pavilion Master of Lingxiao Pavilion, with no room to resist. In fact, he couldn’t even see how Han Xue made her move.
The scene before him was completely beyond Yin Zhengyuan’s understanding.
But the pain in his body told him it was all real; he had indeed been defeated by a mundane woman.
Bang!
A heavy thud sounded.
Mu Tian and Wu Wen gasped in disbelief. They originally thought Han Xue might merely have a match against Yin Zhengyuan and did not dare to act recklessly unless it was dire.
The outcome far exceeded their expectations; Han Xue could actually crush Yin Zhengyuan, and judging by his current state, it was evident he no longer had any combat power.
So Han Xue, with a single move, incapacitated Yin Zhengyuan, the Pavilion Master of Lingxiao Pavilion.
"Master, this... this..." Wu Wen blinked, unable to believe his eyes, but the truth was laid bare before him: Yin Zhengyuan lay there, still disheveled.
"These two as a couple are terrifying, I reckon no one in Tuo Shi can stand against them. It seems our previous choice was immensely correct." Mu Tian said with fear lingering in his heart.
Wu Wen took a few deep breaths, barely stabilizing his emotions, and said, "Master, it wasn’t really our choice; it was just our good fortune to be chosen by Su Changfeng."
"Yes, yes, you’re right. It was our good luck." Mu Tian nodded repeatedly. Indeed, it was Su Changfeng who approached them proactively, and all they did was agree to Su Changfeng’s proposal.
But likely, no one would refuse such an opportunity, attributing it to sheer luck.
"That Yin Zhengyuan really asked for it. Now, being punished like this by Miss Shen, who knows what he’s thinking?" Wu Wen said with a smile.
Although he hadn’t encountered the highest domains of Tuo Shi, he knew of many schemes Yin Zhengyuan executed to protect Yin Lulu. Indeed, many in Tuo Shi were discontent, but most could only suppress their grievances due to his status.
"Karma returns inevitably. All the mistakes he made in Tuo Shi over the years were bound to cost him someday." Mu Tian said lightly.
Because of Yin Lulu, Yin Zhengyuan resorted to many underhanded tactics. Previously, people might have feared his status, but now it’s different.
The structure of Tuo Shi is destined for a profound upheaval due to Han Xue’s presence, something no one can possibly prevent.
By this time, Han Xue had already walked up to Yin Zhengyuan, whose body shrank instinctively, his face unable to hide the terror.
For years, as the Pavilion Master of Lingxiao Pavilion, he possessed immense strength and feared no one, but as he watched Han Xue approach step by step, an uncontrollable chill emanated from his bones.
The woman before him seemed capable of claiming his life at any moment, instigating an uncontrollable fear within him.
"You... you stay back! I’m telling you, I’m the Pavilion Master of Lingxiao Pavilion. Are you planning to oppose all of Tuo Shi?" Yin Zhengyuan tried to use Tuo Shi to intimidate Han Xue.
"Don’t be afraid; I won’t do anything to you. But from this moment on, you are no longer the Pavilion Master of Lingxiao Pavilion." Han Xue looked down at him with a calm gaze.
Yin Zhengyuan laughed arrogantly. Having been the Pavilion Master of Lingxiao Pavilion for so long, he naturally wouldn’t easily relinquish his position. Moreover, Tuo Shi’s affairs aren’t something that anyone can interfere with, let alone by a mundane woman.
Even if she had formidable strength, Tuo Shi’s matters weren’t something she could decide with her power alone.
"Heh, who do you think you are? This is Tuo Shi; what right do you have to make Tuo Shi listen to you?"
Han Xue suddenly crouched down, speaking calmly, "You should be grateful that today’s Tuo Shi isn’t as strong as it once was, otherwise I would unhesitatingly deal with you!"
