BXBX NOVEL Chapter 94: Victim Card
It had shaken the whole Empire and the relationship between the many Sects and especially the Major Sects had worsened. A destruction of such level could only be done by either the Major Sects or the Empire itself. There was also the third option that some Sects had banded together to destroy the Wind Flower Sect, but it was unlikely as others believed.
The Heavenly Sect Federation was the most shaken and was under immense pressure as they were the so called protectors of Humanity and the one who enforced laws. Now that such a incident happened right under their nose, the public was enraged and pressured them to find answers.
Of course, they went to investigate the ruins of Wind Flower Sect and did a thorough research, coming to a conclusion that many Nascent Soul Realms were involved in the destruction of the Wind Flower Sect\'s destruction.
That only put more pressure on the Major Sects and the tension between them grew. The Heavenly Sky Sect blamed other three Major sects that they did this to lower their standing. And the other three Major Sects blamed Heavenly Sky Sect.
All in all, it was a tension filled atmosphere in not only the Major Sects but even the other lower sects as they were afraid they would also get annihilated. However, the chaos was controlled by the Heavenly Sect Federation and nobody used violence.
However, even with all of this, the Heavenly Sect Federation still prepared for the Annual Sect Tournaments while investigating about the Wind Flower Sect. In fact, the Venue for Jade Province Tournament Qualifiers was the Green Silk Town as it was the closest to the Wind Flower Sect.
This way, the Heavenly Sect Federation was able to investigate easily while also holding the Annual Sect Tournaments.
It didn\'t take long after the announcement of venue that the Green Silk Town began to fill with many people, coming from all over the Jade Province. Even under the solemn atmosphere, the people were happy and excited for the tournaments.
In the Lan Inn, on the top floor, a meeting was taking place. It consisted of 15 beautiful women who could cause chaos among men if they went outside together. However, they were now just sitting together and discussing something.
Ning Xi held her wine gourd in one hand as she said.
"The Tournaments starts tomorrow. What is the plan?"
Hearing her, Song Junwan smiled that looked anything but smile and said.
"We\'re going to play the Victim Card, of course. My whole Sect was destroyed by four Nascent Soul Realm Cultivators for some unknown reason. I could only escape with you few people and seek revenge in future. Even now, my injuries hasn\'t completely healed."
Lan Ming nodded and said.
"Yes, and while running away we encountered Master Shen, Sect Master of Divine Harem Sect who helped us in resisting the four Nascent Soul Realm Cultivators and also took us in. This will show how our Sect was destroyed and how we have joined our Saviour\'s sect. Although this will make Master in Spotlight as a genius who could fight Nascent Soul Realm at Core Formation Realm, it will atleast make them wary of Master and not disturb him, not outright atleast. As for underhanded methods..."
Lan Ming\'s voice trailed off as she looked at Ying Yue who was sitting in the corner of the couch. A wry smile appeared on her face as she prayed for the people who would go against her.
Ying Yue smiled feeling her gaze and said.
"You can leave everything related to shadows to me. I can assure you that they won\'t even have a chance to get close to Master."
Her tone was filled with arrogance but nobody could say anything. Ying Yue was a monster everyone was wary of, especially after her training outside in wilds and three weeks of training with Shen Yu.
She was at the Peak of Foundation Realm and could breakthrough to Core Formation Realm any moment she wanted. However, she was waiting.
She alone wasn\'t the one who grew strong in this one month of intense training. Xiao Lan sat on Ying Yue\'s side, playing with red strings that looked like normal red coloured thread.
She was at the Peak of Qi Refining Realm, proving to be the greatest prodigy of Divine Harem Sect. She had taken a time of just a month to cross two Major Realm and was standing at the peak of second Major Realm.
Ning Xi nodded and said.
"Yeah, this girl always gave me creeps and I don\'t want to be the only one to have creeps. Anyways, I kinda understand what you\'re planning to do with this whole Wind Flower Sect, so tell me one thing. Are you all going to reveal yourself tomorrow?"
Lan Ming thought for a moment before replying.
"I\'m not sure about that. It depends on what first round of qualifiers is. If possible then I don\'t want to reveal ourselves tomorrow and wait for the Final of Qualifiers."
Ning Xi chugged a mouthful of wine and said, looking at the beautiful wooden ceiling.
"So you want to announce in a big audience, huh. Alright, I\'ll arrange tomorrow\'s match to be in our favour."
Song Junwan leaned forward and asked with a smile.
"I\'m guessing you\'re going to introduce a single player match, right? That way, we can send Sister Xiao or Sister Yue."
Ning Xi grinned and gave a thumbs to Song Junwan.
"Hehe, Exactly. I\'m the manager of these Qualifiers of Jade Province so I was given the opportunity to make the match. I actually had something in mind already and it matches perfectly here."
