Chapter 225 - The Elder; Qin Wentian's Investigation Begins



Just then, another disciple asked, "Hey, how are you so sure that they are from the Heaven Oracle Sect?"

The disciple from earlier raised his head and looked at the disciple who had asked him the question.

The disciple remained silent for some time, and soon everyone\'s attention was on his reply.

"Well, don\'t you guys remember the commotion that happened a few days ago? All of the sect\'s higher-ups came to our peak."

"There were some cultivators from outside too who were heading somewhere alongside them. And one of these cultivators was a young man with whitish-silver robes, and the clear and distinct symbol of a sect - The Heaven Oracle Sect."

"And today, the disciples who are sitting in the Blue Moon Courtyard, have very similar robes like those of the disciple\'s."

Everyone around him slowly nodded their heads as they digested this new information.

"So those two are from the Heaven Oracle Sect? But why would they come here?"

The disciple then replied, "I can only see one reason - the same reason why all the Sect higher-ups and other cultivators came to the Seventh Peak."

One of the disciples opened his eyes wide in surprise while saying, "To investigate Knag Bai\'s death!?"

The disciple nodded, "Yes, that\'s what I think. Though I can\'t say for sure, because I don\'t think they would need to come back for this reason."

"Hm? Why?" 

The disciple pursed his lips, "Well, let\'s be realistic, no matter how good or talented Kang Bai was, in the eyes of Heaven Oracle Sect, he was just a normal disciple. I don\'t think they would come back to investigate him and give him \'justice\'. Even that day they only a disciple of our age came, this shows how casual they were regarding this whole matter."

Few disciples nodded again when they heard his words.

Just then -

"Kids! Go back to your cultivation abodes!"

The disciples turned around, only to find an elder staring right at that with his nose scrunched his, and eyebrows crossed in a frown.

This elder didn\'t seem to be in a good mood.

The disciples didn\'t need heavenly comprehension talent to tell this, and thus, in no time, the place turned empty once again as the disciples scurried away.

The elder\'s face relaxed a bit as he moved to the next group.

After some time, having kicked all the nuisances, the Elder finally sighed as he moved and went to sit just outside the Blue Moon Courtyard.

As he stared at the setting sun, the courtyard\'s gate was suddenly pushed open and a disciple came out.

It was Ji Yi.

She was still in a boy\'s disguise and cupped her fist at the Elder.

The Elder nodded his head and asked, "Miss, how can I help you?"

Ji YI gave a slight smile and replied, "Elder, please tell that top -"

Suddenly Ji Yi\'s words came to a halt as she stared at the Elder with her eyes opened wide in shock.

"Did you just call me a ... Miss?"

The Elder shrugged and asked again, "Miss, how can I help you?"

Ji Yi pursed her lips and calmed herself before thinking about what she needed to ask for.

Somehow she shuttered the words out of her mouth, "Elder… Please start sending the top disciples who participated in the Second Round of that event, and were present within the dungeon that day."

The elder nodded his head, "When should I start sending disciples here?"

Ji Yi replied, "You can send one disciple today, and the remaining you can start from tomorrow. We will try to finish everything as soon as possible."

The Elder nodded his head and stood up.

Without any more words, he headed straight towards the Elders Hall of the Seventh Peak.

However, just after a few steps, he suddenly came to a halt.

Without turning back, the Elder said, "Lil\' girl, there are times when one must control their emotions no matter what. This will be my first and last warning for you - keep that killing intent to yourself."

Ji Yi immediately retracted the slight killing intent within her eyes.

Staring at the back of the Elder, she narrowed her eyes.

"Who is this old man? Not even Sect Leader Su was able to tell the difference, how was he able to find out about me?"

"Also… those disciples… they really think we\'re mortals and can\'t hear their gossip?"

Taking a deep breath, she calmed herself.

\'I hope this old man doesn\'t speak around too much, or he won\'t see the next day\'s sun. Hmph!\'

Turning around, Ji Yi returned back to the courtyard and closed the door.

She looked around and soon found Qin Wentian sitting near one of the windows.

This window was the only one that was open, and it was facing the other side of the Seventh Peak - the Gracious Mountain Range forest.

Ji Yi had a tender smile as she came close to Qi Wentian, putting her hands on his, she asked, "What is it, Senior Brother? What is worrying you?"

Qin Wentian shook his head, "Nah, it\'s alright. I am just thinking about the Sect Leader Su\'s words."

"Hm?" Ji Yi frowned.

"Tell me, Ji Yi, are the chances of me being the Sect Leader, really that low?"

Ji Yi remained silent for a few minutes and then replied, "Senior Brother, what Sect LEader Su said is indeed true - however, it doesn\'t mean that whatever he said will definitely happen in the future. There\'s a long road to walk, and only the most persistent will reach the end."

Qin Wentian nodded his head with a slight smile, "Ji YI, this is what I love about you - you never fail to keep me motivated and you\'re always there to clear my thoughts and strengthen my resolve."

Ji Yi gave a love-filled smile.

However, just before she could say anything -

*knock* *knock*

"Seniors, I have been sent here by an Elder regarding the incident."

The door of the courtyard was knocked and a voice entered the open hall.

Ji Yi straightened herself and looked at Qin Wentian.

Seeing him nod, Ji Yi said aloud, "Enter."

The gate of the courtyard opened, and a disciple came in.

He came in front of the two and cupped his fists.

"Greetings, Seniors. I am Zheng Xiang.. I was ranked last in that round, and am here to cooperate with you on Brother Kang Bai\'s death investigation."
