Chapter 243 - A Bad Prenomination
Ye Tian Yun had decided to let go of the mission, however that didn\'t mean he had given up.
Since Sect Leader Su had made it very clear that he won\'t allow Ye Tian Yun and Xiao Ming together in the list of members who would be going on the mission.
Thus, Ye Tian Yun had no choice but to choose the one which gave him more probability of finding a way to get out of the sect.
Even though he did notice the disappointment in the eyes of the other three, he didn\'t feel anything.
Truthfully, he didn\'t give a flying fuck or milligram of shit about what others thought of him. So whatever he was doing, he wasn\'t doing it on a whim.
Rather, he saw through all his options and what he cared about was the end result - he didn\'t care about the disdain and disappointment in others\' eyes, especially if they were from the Gracious Sword sect.
\'There\'s no need to waste time by getting affected by what dead people think of me.\'
To Ye Tian Yun, almost the whole sect was nothing more than a walking corpses. Not because he was hallucinating, but because he knew at what level of trouble this sect was going to face in the coming future.
Thus, he didn\'t need to care about their opinion.
But to people other than him, this was a grave matter of disappointment.
Letting out a sigh, Sect Leader Su changed the direction of the conversation.
He looked at Elder Lai Chang and asked, "What\'s up with those brats from the Heaven Oracle Sect? What was that kid\'s name? Is he still around?"
Ye Tian Yun\'s ears suddenly perked up at the mention of Heaven oracle Sect.
\'What are that sect\'s disciples doing here? And who is it?\'
He was quite intrigued.
Elder Lai Chang replied to Sect Leader Su, "Yes, Sect Leader. Qin Wentian and his other fellow disciple Shi Yi are both in the sect."
As soon as Elder Lai Chang said their name, Ye Tian Yun\'s eyes opened wide in shock.
He wasn\'t expecting to hear two familiar names from the Middle Heavens here in this sect.
He knew Qin Wentian. And he was sure that the Qin Wentian in his mind and the Qin Wentian currently in the sect were the same.
How?
Because of the disciple with him - Shi Yi.
A slight killing intent flashed through his eyes, but he immediately controlled his emotions. There was no need to make the other three people in the hall curious about the relation between him and those two.
Sect Leader Su, who was most sensitive towards killing intent, missed it because he was too focused on Elder Lai Chang\'s reply.
He asked again, "Their work is still not done?"
Elder Lai Chang gave a wry smile, "Actually… these two are getting on my nerves."
Sect Leader Su and Peak Master Duan couldn\'t help but let out a smirk.
"What\'s going on?" Sect Leader Su asked.
Elder Lai Chang replied, "Sect Leader, those two are very arrogant, they are treating our sect as their property, and worst of all - they are clearly not serious about the investigation."
"It\'s like they are just trying to spend more time here and delay things as much as possible."
Sect leader Su shrugged, "Then what\'s the problem with that? Are they interfering with the Sect Management?"
Elder Lai Chang shook his head, "No, Sect Leader. They are harassing the disciples - sometimes they join friendly spars and beat our disciples to a pulp, sometimes they make the disciples stand in front of their courtyard in the name of interrogation, and worst of all - they keep on disturbing the cultivation of the disciples."
Sect Leader Su frowned, "You didn\'t warn them not to?"
Elder Lai Chang nodded, "I did warn them, Sect Leader. But they have someone\'s permission which is why they are acting however they want."
Sect Leader Su was confused, "Someone\'s permission? Who can permit them to act however they want in our sect?"
A wave of slight anger could be sensed at the end of his voice.
Elder Lai Chang didn\'t reply; rather, he stared straight at Sect Leader Su with a blank expression.
Confused at this, Sect Leader Su turned his head and saw that both Peak Master Duan and Ye Tian Yun were staring at him.
It was then it dawned upon him.
"Cough-cough, I didn\'t give any such permission." Sect Leader Su clarified.
Peak Master Duan waved his hand, "Elder Lai Chang, let them do whatever they want, don\'t bother with them - Heaven Oracle Sect is still a big deal for us."
Elder Lai Chang nodded his head and didn\'t say anything else.
Ye Tian Yun, on the other hand, saw the silence in the hall as a chance and asked the question that was currently bugging him a lot, "Sect Leader, why are people from the Heaven Oracle Sect here?"
Sect Leader Su didn\'t hide anything from him while replying, "You know about Kang Bai, right? The disciple who sacrificed his life for the sect in the Inner Court Entrance Hunt?"
Ye Tian Yun nodded as the scene of him slitting Kang Bai\'s throat flashed in his mind. It was a refreshing memory.
"Last month, his father came to the sect, and with them, there was a disciple of the Heaven Oracle Sect. Qin Wentian is that disciple."
"He was here to investigate the death of Kang Bai."
Ye Tian Yun frowned when he heard those words. A bad premonition welled up in his heart.
Taking a slight breath, he asked, "So.. did he find anything?"
Sect Leader Su shrugged, "Not really, but they did visit the site."
As soon as Ye Tian Yun heard those words, his heart dropped.
\'Shit! Heaven Oracle Sect now knows I am in the Lower Heavens!\'
