Dusk.
The last glimmer of the setting sun was just above the horizon.
In the dim room of the Yan Yue Immortal Sect, a row of white candles was lit again, casting a ghastly glow on the faces of the elderly on both sides of the long table.
Huang Yuan stood with Su Huai at the entrance of the dim room, looking at him with an indescribable expression.
"Are the female disciples of our sect and that humanoid snow spirit no longer satisfying you?"
"Or is it that after breaking through, even your taste has changed, and now you won't even let go of a female snake, and it's such a... slender snake..."
"?"
The small snake ring on Su Huai's finger immediately looked towards Huang Yuan, with its scarlet eyes flickering.
Su Huai's eyes widened as well.
"Old Huang, I advise you to be cautious with your words!"
Huang Yuan coughed lightly and hurriedly pushed open the door of the dim room and slipped in first.
The elders in the room stood up from their seats in unison and bowed their heads to Su Huai as a sign of respect when they saw him enter.
There were also many changes in the seating in the room.
The seat of the Holy Son that Su Huai sat in last time has been removed, and the seat that has been empty for a long time is now occupied by a kind-looking old man.
Next to him, there was a chair that was exactly the same.
Under the guidance of Huang Yuan, Su Huai sat on that chair and then turned his head, showing a smile to the old man next to him.
This was the first time in this life that Su Huai met with the Great Emperor of Yan Yue.
He could see that the Great Emperor of Yan Yue in front of him was just a Dharma body.
"Sorry, Daoist friend Su..."
"Recently there has been some chaos in the Immortal Realm, and the Crying Ghost Abyss may also have noticed it. The Ghost Emperor of the Mountain Dome is coveting, and I can't extricate myself, so I can only meet you in the form of a Dharma body."
"Please forgive me..."
Su Huai saluted the Great Emperor of Yan Yue.
"Your Majesty is too polite. Although Su Huai has luckily broken through, he is still the Holy Son of Yan Yue. You can call my name directly."
The Great Emperor of Yan Yue smiled and stroked his beard.
"No matter what, congratulations on your ascension to the realm of the emperor!"
As soon as the voice of the Great Emperor of Yan Yue fell, more than a dozen elders in the room also shouted in unison: "Congratulations on the Holy Son's ascension to the realm of the emperor!"
Su Huai thanked them one by one with a twist of his mouth.
Now that his cultivation has changed, Su Huai's status and speaking rights have also been raised to an absolute height.
Those elders who were not familiar with him in the past were a bit flattered, only Chen Tailu from Yao Ling Peak was full of entanglement.
Chen Tailu is an old man of the Yan Yue Immortal Sect, and he is a person who truly cares about the sect. It is impossible for him not to be proud of Su Huai's breakthrough, and the sect has two emperors.
But this Holy Son's character is really...
He knew about the abnormality of his own little apprentice these days, and as a closed-door disciple, how could he not care!
Yesterday, Chu Siyu went down the mountain and did not return to the mountain gate late at night. He was taken aback at the time and hurriedly wanted to go down the mountain to find her.
But he didn't expect that just as he left Yao Ling Peak, Huang Yuan stopped him and told him about Su Huai's situation and that Chu Siyu was with Su Huai.
Chen Tailu was both happy and angry in his heart.
That girl Chu Siyu is only sixteen or seventeen years old, a jade-like age!
This morning, when that girl came to the alchemy room to listen to his lecture, even her mouth was swollen!
The red mark on the neck is particularly conspicuous!
It seems that she has suffered a lot.
Su Huai, do you know that you will go to jail if you do this!
Su Huai could feel the resentment coming from Chen Tailu, and he knew that this old man must have known that he had completely abducted his precious apprentice. He didn't know what kind of psychology it was, but he not only smiled at Chen Tailu but also raised his eyebrows.
Chen Tailu was so angry that he almost spat out a mouthful of old blood.
"Cough..."
Huang Yuan saw his old friend's face turning red with anger, and he couldn't help but explain for him.
"Today's meeting is presided over by the Holy Son, in addition to announcing the Holy Son's breakthrough, there should be other important matters to discuss?"
Su Huai then withdrew his gaze.
"Indeed..."
"This gathering is mainly to discuss with everyone how to deal with the matter of Tian Han Palace."
The elder of Quan Yi Peak, Gu Han Shan, was the first to react. "Does the Holy Son mean... to start the war directly?"
"No!" Su Huai knocked on the table.
"The matter of the medicine man can only confirm that the great elder of Tian Han Palace, Qian Sihai, is the principal offender for the time being. As for what role Tian Han Xian Di played in this... it is still unknown."
"If Tian Han Xian Di did not participate, everyone will be delighted, and Qian Sihai has no place to escape."
"But if he did participate, there is a second solution to this matter, and we can be a fisherman."
Huang Yuan frowned and asked, "The struggle between the snipe and the clam, the fisherman benefits... but where to find the clam?"
Su Huai sighed:
"Great elder, Qian Sihai is not you!"
"Not everyone is willing to be ordinary."
"No matter whether Tian Han Xian Di is the real mastermind behind the scenes, the snipe and the clam have already been ready..."
The elders present are not foolish, and with a slight reminder from Su Huai, they all figured out the key points.
For a while, the sound of inhaling in the dark room continued to ring out, and even the flame of the white candle on the table fluttered.
Su Huai knocked on the table again, focusing everyone's attention on himself.
"So, the first thing we need to do now is to determine the position of Tian Han Xian Di."
"Then decide whether to be the fisherman or not."
"By the way, I already have some immature plans in my heart about this matter."
The Great Emperor of Yan Yue, who had been silent all the time, nodded and made a final decision: "You can speak out, and the Yan Yue Immortal Sect will unconditionally cooperate with your actions."
Su Huai nodded and continued:
"First, the immortal sect needs to send a friendly exchange application to Tian Han Palace."
Chen Tailu interrupted: "If Tian Han Palace clearly states that the sect is in turmoil and refuses to communicate, what should we do?"
Su Huai pulled the corner of his mouth: "I have been prepared for this matter, great elder, those disciples of Tian Han Palace should still be detained in the immortal sect, right?"
Huang Yuan nodded in response: "As you requested, they have been detained in the guest residence of the sect, using the reason that Zhang Zhen Tian has fallen and no one is protecting them to return to the sect."
"Isn't that okay, then I will escort those disciples of Tian Han Palace back to the sect and exchange some ideas with Tian Han Palace."
"As one of the four major sects, they cannot stop their own disciples from returning to the mountain, otherwise... who will be willing to go to Tian Han Palace for cultivation in the future?"
"I have worked hard to escort their disciples back to the mountain, and they must invite me in for a cup of tea, right?"
Chen Tailu asked again: "What if they refuse to let us escort and send someone to pick them up?"
"They won't..."
"The Immortal Realm is so dangerous, sending someone to pick them up? The person who comes to pick them up may die on the way... It's also very normal."
"Just like refining elixirs, sometimes when refining, the furnace explodes, right, old Chen?"
Chen Tailu shrank his head.
He was particularly active today, knowing that the plan proposed by Su Huai, this old schemer, would definitely not have so many loopholes, but he still argued.
Now that Su Huai has said this, the implied meaning is: "Old Chen, if you argue with me again, be careful when refining elixirs in front of the disciples in the future!"
How dare he argue again!
In case he really explodes the furnace while demonstrating alchemy to the disciples one day, then his old face will be completely lost.
Seeing that Old Chen finally settled down, Su Huai put his hands in his arms, glanced at him.
"If everyone has no objections, the notice can be issued later."
"In seven days, I, the Holy Son, will set off for Tian Han Palace."
"Yes!"
