Xuan Shan chuckled and didn't suspect anything.
“Uncle Ye, if you wish to observe the illusion techniques of our Heavenly Illusion Peak, you will need my master’s permission first. My master and several other elders are already waiting for you in the sect’s main hall. You can discuss it with them then,” Xuan Shan said with a smile.
Indeed, as a direct disciple, she couldn't represent Tianhuan Peak to let Ye Liuyun see their techniques, so Ye Liuyun still needed to talk to Tai Shu and the others.
However, Ye Liuyun knew that Xuan Shan couldn't make the decision, which is why he said he wanted to come and observe the Dharma. Since Xuan Shan couldn't make the decision but didn't refuse, she would definitely be asked to discuss it with the higher-ups of Tianhuan Peak. And her identity was rather special in the Supreme Response Sect.
She was certain that the higher-ups at Tianhuan Peak would take her seriously. Once they did, they would summon other high-ranking members to meet with her. In that case, she would definitely be able to see the guy who assassinated her, thus saving her the trouble of finding a reason to search Tianhuan Peak.
The majority of cultivators on Tianhuan Peak are female, because most of the practitioners of illusion techniques are female. The male-to-female ratio on Tianhuan Peak is approximately four to six.
There are four Nascent Soul cultivators on Tianhuan Peak, two men and two women.
Ye Liuyun followed Xuan Shan into Tianhuan Peak. Upon seeing Ye Liuyun, the disciples of Tianhuan Peak along the way all showed surprised expressions.
"Look, isn't that Elder Ye of Medicine Peak, the Goddess's husband? What's he doing here at Tianhuan Peak?" The disciples on the road stopped and looked at Ye Liuyun in surprise.
Looking over at the main hall, the three elders and several other disciples had already arrived.
"Master, what brings Elder Ye to visit our Tianhuan Peak so suddenly?" Xuan Nuo, the eldest disciple of Tianhuan Peak, asked.
When Tai Shu saw her eldest disciple asking a question, she immediately replied.
"He said he wanted to come and observe the illusion techniques of our Tianhuan Peak. This is no small matter, so I called you all over to discuss it with him."
Everyone was taken aback.
“What? Observe the Dharma of our Tianhuan Peak? How can this be allowed? The Dharma is the inheritance of our Tianhuan Peak. Let outsiders observe it. Isn’t that the same as spreading the Dharma out?” Xuan Nuo directly expressed his opposition.
Although Li Yue didn't know Ye Liuyun's true purpose in coming here, she certainly wouldn't allow Ye Liuyun to observe the Tianhuan Peak's techniques.
Because of the methods she used to kill Ye Liuyun, the Myriad Manifestations of the Universe is one of the core inheritances of the Heavenly Illusion Peak.
"He wants to observe the illusions of our Heavenly Illusion Peak. Could it be that he just guessed it was related to Heavenly Illusion Peak and wants to confirm whether it was someone from our Heavenly Illusion Peak who did it by observing the illusions? If that's the case, then I can't let him succeed." Li Yue muttered to herself.
After a moment of thought, Li Yue spoke up.
“Senior Sister Tai Shu, you must not agree to this. The inheritance of our Tianhuan Peak must never be passed on to people outside the sect.”
However, the other two core elders did not immediately object.
The two of them glanced at their senior sister, then lowered their heads and fell into deep thought. If they disagreed, they should directly refuse her invitation to visit Tianhuan Peak to avoid an awkward situation later.
Since their senior sister had agreed and even asked them all to come and receive them, it meant that their senior sister had other intentions. After all, they also knew that their Tianhuan Peak had begun to decline.
If they could befriend Ye Liuyun, they might be able to maintain their current position, so they guessed Tai Shu's thoughts.
Seeing that the two core elders remained silent, Li Yue frowned deeply.
"Elder, Second Elder, what exactly do you two mean by this? This is a big deal! Why don't you speak up?" Li Yue asked.
However, the Grand Elder of Tianhuan Peak simply shook his head slightly.
“Junior Sister Liyue, please don’t be impatient. We will certainly not allow the inheritance of Tianhuan Peak to fall into the hands of others. However, let’s meet this Junior Brother Ye first, since you know that Junior Brother Ye’s identity is different from ordinary people.”
After he said that, Li Yue had no choice but to patiently wait for Ye Liuyun to arrive.
Soon, Ye Liuyun arrived at the main hall under Xuan Shan's guidance.
When Ye Liuyun entered, Li Yue was filled with extreme shock.
"Damn it, this kid is really not dead? How did she dodge my Myriad Manifestations?" Although Li Yue's face showed no reaction, one of her hands clenched into a fist slightly.
Ye Liuyun is not dead, which means her mission failed, but she has already reported to the Reverse Immortal Alliance that Ye Liuyun has been killed by her.
But now it turns out that her assassination attempt failed, and she doesn't know how to explain it to her superiors.
She looked left and right and couldn't see any flaws, or that it was someone else pretending.
Given the complete silence within the sect, she had no choice but to accept this reality. However, there was still a way to salvage the situation: she could simply kill Ye Liuyun again.
As soon as Ye Liuyun entered, she glanced at everyone and then looked away, because she already knew who it was, but she couldn't show that she had recognized them yet.
"Haha, what an honored guest! I never expected that Junior Brother Ye would personally come to visit our Tianhuan Peak. Our Tianhuan Peak is truly honored."
"Nice to meet you. I am Tai Shu, the mistress of Tianhuan Peak." Tai Shu took the initiative to lower herself and stepped down from her throne to greet Ye Liuyun with a smile.
This Tai Shu exuded a seductive aura. She was born with a charming nature, not an ordinary constitution. So when she got close to Ye Liuyun, she unconsciously spread a unique charm that disturbed Ye Liuyun's mind.
"What a beautiful woman." This was Ye Liuyun's first reaction upon seeing Tai Shu.
"Please forgive me, Senior Sister Tai Shu. I have only recently become an elder of the Medicine Peak and do not yet know all of you senior brothers and sisters. Yesterday, Junior Nephew Xuan Shan came to my place to congratulate me on behalf of Tianhuan Peak, which is why I have a reason to visit Tianhuan Peak." Ye Liuyun bowed politely to Tai Shu.
After exchanging pleasantries, Tai Shu quickly introduced her junior brothers, sisters, and disciples.
Ye Liuyun only gave a perfunctory greeting and showed no unusual behavior when facing Liyue.
After exchanging greetings, Li Yue finally felt completely relieved, because she couldn't see any sign that Ye Liuyun recognized her in his eyes.
"It seems I was overthinking it. But why isn't this guy dead?" Li Yue forced a smile and greeted Ye Liuyun before lowering her head to ponder.
As for Ye Liuyun, she kept sneering inwardly.
"I scared the hell out of you, you damn bitch," Ye Liuyun muttered to himself after looking away.
After a few polite exchanges, Ye Liuyun sat down.
"Junior Brother Ye, I already know why you've come, but I'm afraid this matter will be difficult to handle," Tai Shu said bluntly.
Ye Liuyun wasn't actually after the Tianhuan Peak's inheritance; he was just looking for an excuse to identify his target and, in a way, to alert the enemy.
"Hehe, Senior Sister Tai Shu, I only understand one principle: everything has its own price. Your difficulty is simply because you're unsure if I can afford the price," Ye Liuyun said with a smile, his eyes narrowed.
Chapter 524 A Hundred Mistakes (5000 words + 4000 monthly votes bonus chapter)
Ye Liuyun's words were quite interesting. She was telling Tai Shu and the others that she had the confidence to observe the inheritance of your sect, and it was just a matter of whether they were willing or not.
However, Ye Liuyun said this in order to mislead Li Yue and make her completely relax.
Actually, Ye Liuyun shouldn't have been the first to come to Tianhuan Peak. She should have gone to other factions first before coming to Tianhuan Peak. But since she's already here, she can only make things difficult and alert the enemy.
Tai Shu fell into deep thought. After a moment of hesitation, she asked.
"Really? Then I wonder how much Junior Brother Ye can offer to observe the inheritance of our Heavenly Illusion Peak?" Tai Shu asked.
Tai Shu had to admit that if the benefits were enough, observing this method wasn't out of the question. It all depended on whether Ye Liuyun could hit their sore spot and make it impossible for them to refuse.
But Ye Liuyun certainly never intended to actually inherit their legacy.
"Haha, Senior Sister Tai Shu, you don't need to be too nervous. I'm not here for your core inheritance. I just need to see some ordinary illusion techniques. Senior Sister Tai Shu, look, I've cultivated a pupil technique that can cast illusions." Ye Liuyun suddenly revealed his Myriad Flower Pupil.
When Tai Shu saw Ye Liuyun's Myriad Flower Eyes, she was stunned.
"This? Isn't this the Myriad Flower Eyes? My God, Junior Brother Ye, you actually managed to cultivate such a demanding secret technique successfully?" Tai Shu couldn't help but stand up.
The Myriad Flower Eyes technique isn't particularly rare, but it has extremely demanding requirements. Tianhuan Peak also possesses this method, but no one has successfully cultivated it to this day.
Ye Liuyun was stunned when he saw that Tai Shu recognized his eyes.
"This? Senior Sister Tai Shu, you know about the Myriad Flower Eyes?" Ye Liuyun asked doubtfully.
Tai Shu chuckled.
“This method isn’t particularly rare; most forces that are even slightly skilled in illusion techniques have it in their collections. However, the soul strength required for this eye technique is far beyond what ordinary illusion practitioners can achieve. I tried to cultivate it myself, but unfortunately, I failed,” Tai Shu explained.
She had cultivated it herself, so she knew how difficult it was to master the Myriad Flower Eyes technique; the chances were probably even smaller than recruiting disciples with special physiques.
Seriously, if Ye Liuyun could come to their Tianhuan Peak, Tai Shu would definitely give Ye Liuyun special attention and even make him Tianhuan Peak's successor.
Because the inheritance of Tianhuan Peak depends on how strong your soul power is, the stronger the better.
But it's probably too late to say all this now.
Ye Liuyun was frustrated. She had thought that the Myriad Flower Eyes was some rare technique, but it turned out to be a very common one.
"I see. Senior Sister Tai Shu, you already know the purpose of my visit. I only want to look at ordinary methods. That shouldn't be a problem, right?" Ye Liuyun said with a smile again.
Tai Shu fell into deep thought again, because it wasn't impossible for her to use an ordinary method. She was now considering whether to take the opportunity to ask Ye Liuyun for benefits or to let Ye Liuyun watch for free to form a good relationship.
After seeing Ye Liuyun's Mangekyou Sharingan, Liyue suddenly had a bold guess.
"This kid actually managed to master such a demanding eye technique. Does that mean he possesses an extremely strong soul? Damn it, I miscalculated. His soul strength is probably far beyond that of an ordinary person. He might have used an illusion technique on me within the myriad phenomena of the universe to make me think he's dead," Li Yue analyzed to herself.
Li Yue's analysis makes sense; otherwise, it wouldn't make sense. She certainly wouldn't have thought of the fact that Ye Liuyun is immortal.
However, she still didn't believe that Ye Liuyun's visit to Tianhuan Peak was just a coincidence. She didn't believe it, so she still couldn't let her guard down.
“If it’s just observing ordinary methods, that’s fine. Junior Brother Ye, please wait a moment while my two junior brothers and I discuss it,” Tai Shu said with a smile.
After she finished speaking, she stood up and went into the side hall next door with the two core elders, as they needed to discuss things privately.
Ye Liuyun understood this principle, so he waited patiently. As for Li Yue, she was not a core elder. Like Ye Liuyun, she was promoted from a core disciple and was not a personal disciple.
Therefore, they do not have the authority to handle major issues, but they still have a voice.
After the other elders left, the atmosphere in the main hall suddenly became strange, because Ye Liuyun was looking at Li Yue with a smile.
Li Yue felt uneasy under Ye Liuyun's gaze.
"What's with that look? It's like he's flirting with me," Li Yue said, feeling a little uncomfortable.
Li Yue was stunned by Ye Liuyun's frivolous gaze. She could see nothing else in Ye Liuyun's eyes except male lust for females.
"Elder Ye, why are you staring at me like that? Is there something wrong with me?" Li Yue asked after enduring for a moment.
Ye Liuyun smiled and said this after Li Yue spoke.
"Haha, it's nothing. I just feel that Elder Liyue and I both rose from core disciples to elders, so we get along quite well."
But Liyue doesn't think so.
"This guy? He's obviously a lecher. Having Xuanmiao as his wife isn't enough for him, he actually wants to seduce me. But is he doing it on purpose or unintentionally?" Li Yue wondered to herself.
However, Li Yue suddenly had other ideas. Since the assassination attempt failed yesterday, she definitely had to continue the mission, otherwise she wouldn't be able to explain it to her superiors.
"Hehe, yes, it's definitely very difficult for an ordinary disciple to be promoted to a sect elder. I was just lucky," Li Yue replied.
Seeing that this woman was willing to talk to him, Ye Liuyun had another idea in his mind.
"This woman is definitely plotting how to kill me again. I might as well pretend to be a lecherous man and seduce her, then find a reason to lure her to Tianduan Ridge and kill or subdue her silently. But will she believe me?" Ye Liuyun pondered in his heart.
Both of them were now putting their minds to work and considering the problem very carefully.
"Then we two should get to know each other better," Ye Liuyun said with a smile, his eyes narrowed.
Li Yue was stunned again. She was now convinced that Ye Liuyun was a lecherous man, and she really couldn't tell whether Ye Liuyun knew her identity.
So we need to see first. If after a while she's fine, then it's probably because she's too nervous.
Soon, Tai Shu and the other two came out; they had already reached a conclusion.
"Junior Brother Ye, the three of us have finished discussing it, and we've decided to let you observe ordinary cultivation methods for free," Tai Shu said with a smile.
As soon as she said that, Ye Liuyun knew what Tai Shu was thinking. She wanted to curry favor with her, but Ye Liuyun was determined to play along.
"Really? That would be wonderful. Thank you in advance, Senior Sister Tai Shu," Ye Liuyun said with a chuckle.
"It's alright. I just hope that if Junior Brother Ye becomes successful in the future, he won't forget about our Tianhuan Peak," Tai Shu said.
The three of them decided to curry favor with Ye Liuyun in exchange for future favors.
"Haha, definitely." Ye Liuyun nodded.
Tai Shu then instructed Xuan Shan to lead Ye Liuyun to their Tianhuan Peak's library, so that she could look at the ordinary cultivation methods.
Ye Liuyun was definitely going, and he even watched for a while as a formality.
Before leaving, she asked Tai Shu and the others for their contact information, including Li Yue's.
After obtaining her contact information, Ye Liuyun calmly left Tianhuan Peak. Li Yue truly couldn't tell that Ye Liuyun had come for her.
That evening, the Reverse Immortal Alliance learned that Ye Liuyun was not dead, which made Tianyuan happy for nothing. He was so angry that he scolded Liyue and ordered her to find a way to kill Ye Liuyun again.
Li Yue had no other choice but to find another opportunity. She began to mobilize the other secret forces of the Reverse Immortal Alliance to monitor Ye Liuyun.
After visiting Tianhuan Peak, Ye Liuyun went on to visit the various factions that came to congratulate him on becoming an elder, leaving no one out.
In a few days...
"Having visited so many factions, could it be that I'm just overthinking things? Or is he using these visits to find someone to assassinate him? That should be the case, after all, illusion magic isn't a particularly rare technique." A few days later, Li Yue dispelled her doubts.
Now that the suspicions have been cleared up, she needs to start thinking of ways to kill Ye Liuyun again. However, she will definitely not use the same method to assassinate Ye Liuyun again. It's too risky. If the other party has an ambush, it would be too much of a loss to risk her own life.
She felt she needed to wait until after the inauguration ceremony of the new leader of the Taishang Ganying Sect was over.
As for Ye Liuyun, she had actually been waiting for Li Yue to assassinate her again, but unfortunately, that woman was too cautious and never came.
