Transcending Heavens: Starting with the Ancient Tomb Sect

Chapter 140 Arrangement

The Taoist brother has become a senior master?

Having already suffered the loss of her family, Yelü Yan was deeply distressed, and the series of events that occurred that night left the young woman utterly exhausted.

Hearing his second brother's conversation with his savior, Yelü Yan was overcome with emotion and fainted.

"!"

Before losing consciousness, Yelü Yan seemed to see the Taoist priest instinctively helping her up.

"Be careful!"

Yue Que instinctively grabbed Yelü Yan, who was about to fall over, and Yelü Qi finally reacted.

After quickly taking his younger sister in his arms, he carefully checked her over, worried that something might have happened to her during her escape.

While Yelü Qi was carefully taking care of his younger sister, Yue Que and Xiaolongnu stood quietly by and watched.

Actually, when Yelü Yan collapsed, apart from Yelü Qi, who had his back to his sister and didn't see it, Xiaolongnu saw everything.

Little Dragon Girl just stood there without moving, watching the other person fall straight down.

If it were just her and Yelü Yan present, Xiaolongnu would simply watch the other fall down and then sigh in a calm and ethereal tone.

While Yue Que was observing Yelü Qi, Xiaolongnu was observing Yelü Yan, who had long been destined to be taken under the wing of the Ancient Tomb Sect and become her senior sister Li Mochou's little disciple.

After observing them for a while, Yue Que and Xiaolongnu realized that the brother and sister were not simple.

She had arched eyebrows and a slender figure. Because she still had a childlike air about her, even though she was dressed in women's clothing, she had the appearance of a tomboy.

Even when facing her savior, Yelü Yan subconsciously felt a sense of rejection towards Xiaolongnu.

As expected of a woman who could completely ignore Yang Guo in the original work, she now adopts almost the same attitude towards Xiaolongnu.

Little Dragon Girl thought to herself: This Yelü Yan is different from the other junior disciples.

Despite being orphans of the same royal family, Yelü Yan and Wanyan Ping possessed vastly different personalities; truly, environment greatly influences character.

"how?"

Yue Que gave Xiaolongnu an inquiring look.

This is quite unusual.

Little Dragon Girl blinked and expressed her feelings.

Yelü Yan was quite different, and Yelü Qi was even more extraordinary.

Compared to Yelü Yan, Yelü Qi was the object of Yue Que's greatest interest.

It is truly rare to find someone who can maintain composure and remain rational despite the annihilation of their family, without being swayed by their own hatred and anger.

It should not be underestimated at any time.

He was too clear-headed.

To say that one would remain unmoved even if Mount Tai collapsed before them would be an exaggeration, but it's not far off.

In any large family, such a person would be a direct descendant whom they would invest heavily in cultivating.

To put it simply, he is a talented person with vision, shrewdness, and ability.

They have their own internal scales, and it's actually very difficult for outsiders to influence them.

He sees things too clearly, subconsciously analyzes the pros and cons, and uses restraint and rationality to control himself.

I will not let my emotions dictate the decisions I have already made.

Humans are too calm.

In this respect, his junior brother Yang Guo was definitely not as good as him before. He also liked to suffer from mental exhaustion and his emotions were volatile.

After all, his junior brother Yang Guo's father, who was a prince, had passed away long ago, so he never had the opportunity to see the world from a higher perspective.

Now, with the help of his senior brother Yue Que, junior brother Yang Guo has the opportunity to open his eyes to the world and even begin to experience it firsthand.

Yang Guo is probably too caught up in the intense competition to think about anything else right now.

Given that the brilliant strategist Huang Rong had no other choice, she would definitely devote a great deal of effort to cultivating her son-in-law Yang Guo.

If in the past Huang Rong was afraid that Yang Guo learned too much, now it's probably Madam Guo who's afraid that Yang Guo has learned too little.

Hey!

That book was the one Yang Guo hadn't finished reading on Peach Blossom Island; this time, he'll finish it all at once.

Martial arts, military strategy, Confucian classics, and so on.

Yue Que couldn't help but laugh at the thought that his junior brother Yang Guo would experience the intensity of studying for the college entrance examination.

Of course, Yelü Qi also had his shortcomings.

The downside is that while his aptitude for martial arts isn't terrible—he's only slightly better than the Da Wu and Xiao Wu brothers—Yelü Qi is genuinely dedicated to rigorous training, and his final results are quite remarkable.

The Wu brothers, Da Wu and Xiao Wu, like to slack off during martial arts training.

"But what should we do with you, Yelü Qi?"

Yue Que was mentally planning his arrangements for Yelü Qi, constantly analyzing the potential benefits.

Despite the polite address of "Uncle-Master" just now, Yelü Qi has quite a few thoughts on his mind.

Yue Que could tell that when Yelü Qi called out "Uncle-Master," he meant it for his sister, Yelü Yan.

She's your junior sister's martial aunt too!

As a disciple of the Old Rascal, Yelü Qi was considered an outsider of the Quanzhen Sect, making his background quite complex.

Whether Zhou Botong did it intentionally or accidentally is really hard to say.

But based on Yue Que's understanding of Zhou Botong, anything that passes through his hands starts to become absurd in its subsequent development; Zhou Botong is like a source of pollution.

The same applies to the Nine Yin Manual and the story of Ying Gu.

Things would have gone smoothly if things had proceeded normally, but after Zhou Botong's internal fighting, things snowballed.

It now seems that Yelü Qi is not in much better shape.

"fine."

After carefully examining his sister and finding no major problems, Yelü Qi realized she had simply fainted due to excessive grief, which relieved him, though the sorrowful look on his face remained.

But Yelü Qi's mood wasn't much better.

It was both a sorrow for the family's fate and a worry for his younger sister's future.

Based on his understanding of his sister's personality, there were big problems to come.

Meeting such an outstanding young man, especially one who has saved her life, at her age is not a good thing.

If nothing unexpected happens to the family, then things are fine.

But now—

Yelü Qi felt that the person his sister had met was not at the right time.

Yelü Qi knew very well what kind of person his younger sister, Yelü Yan, was.

He was very opinionated, and sometimes even his older brother couldn't do anything about it.

The couple who saved his brother and sister's lives were a perfect match, clearly lovers. Yelü Qi wasn't surprised that such a celibate sect like the Quanzhen School would have such a person.

After all, he himself is an example.

"Since your sister is alright, let's find a place to rest for a while."

Yue Que looked around and felt that the current location was still not good, so he decided to change places.

Four people were sitting around a fire in a spot near a mountain stream.

After her breathing stabilized, Yelü Yan, who had been unconscious, regained consciousness.

At this moment, she was leaning against her second brother, Yelü Qi, like a wounded little animal staring blankly at the campfire, with only pale yellow light shining on her face.

"Where are you planning to go next, junior disciple?"

As Yue Que poked the fire with a stick, he glanced at Yelü Qi, who was sitting on the other side.

Heading north?

-

That's like a lamb being led to the jaws of a tiger.

Even if Yelü Qi ran to Kublai Khan now, he wouldn't get a good outcome.

At that moment, Yelü Qi actually had very few options left.

The only options are to either hide or head south.

In fact, Yelü Qi only had one path if he wanted to rise to prominence.

Yelü Qi remained silent, feeling a subtle pressure looming over him. He subconsciously began to analyze the pros and cons and weigh them in his mind.

"Are you just going to run away like this? Instead of seeking revenge?"

Seeing that Yelü Qi had begun to ponder, Yue Que spoke up directly, deciding that as his senior uncle, he would make arrangements for his junior nephew.

"No!"

Before Yelü Qi could react, Yelü Yan had already stood up and said earnestly, "Of course we must take revenge!"

The hatred for killing one's father is an irreconcilable hatred!

""

What's more, it was a blood feud that wiped out his entire family.

Yelü Yan was also very calm, but her second brother was far too calm.

This behavior displeased Yelü Yan.

After expressing her opinion to show her attitude and some dissatisfaction with her brother, Yelü Yan hung her head and muttered, "But we are no match for the Golden Wheel Monk and his group."

As the daughter of the prime minister, how could Yelü Yan not know the power of Esoteric Buddhism?

Thus, she only dared to call him the Golden Wheel Dharma King, but not the Tantric sect, or the Buddhist sect, let alone the other high-ranking members of the Mongol direct line who were vying for the position of Great Khan.

Yue Que indeed heard that expectation and request in Yelü Yan's words.

Especially when Yelü Yan looked at him, the glint in her eyes told Yue Que her expectations.

"Sister, you!" Yelü Qi reacted immediately and stood up instinctively.

Seeing that Yelü Yan was interested, Yue Que readily accepted the offer and replied, "As your senior uncle, I can help you."

""

"Nephew, even if you wanted to hide or join the ranks of other high-ranking Mongolians, you wouldn't have the chance."

"You will face endless pursuit!"

Yue Que directly shattered Yelü Qi's illusions, saying seriously, "Because you, Yelü Qi, are a disciple of the Quanzhen Sect."

.

"?"

Yelü Qi, a disciple of the mischievous Zhou Botong, was taken aback upon hearing this, but quickly realized what he meant, his expression changing. Could it be—

"Not long ago, two disciples of the Golden Wheel Monk fought against the Quanzhen Sect in Zhongnan Mountain."

"Because they encountered the Red Serpent Fairy Li Mochou, they suffered a great defeat."

"The losses were considerable, which led to a series of subsequent actions."

"It was because of this discovery that I and Long'er and the others headed north to prevent any accidents from happening."

"Unfortunately, I didn't expect this—"

Yue Que shook his head again as he finished speaking, his face filled with sighs and regret.

Yelü Qi was stunned, his eyes glazed over, thinking to himself that it wasn't just a power struggle among the higher-ups, but also a matter of sectarian conflict? Then he remembered that when he stopped Nadarba earlier, he had subconsciously used the Quanzhen Sect's martial arts and the Empty Fist.

In some cases, religious conflict can be even more terrifying than power struggles.

Yelü Qi suddenly realized that he had no other choice.

Even with his usual composure, Yelü Qi almost lost his composure at this moment.

Yelü Yan, however, perked up her ears and gleaned from Yue Que's words a crucial point that led to their crushing defeat: the Crimson Serpent Fairy.
