Chapter 582: 493 Chapter 582: 493 Witnessing this scene, Chi Yang, who initially found it somewhat difficult to address the Sect Master, surprisingly found the words slipping out more smoothly.
Even Xuan Qing had recognized the other’s identity, so could his own face really be more important than Xuan Qing’s?
“No need for such courtesy.”
Shen Yi was not fond of these formalities; most of his interactions with the Pure Moon Sect involved Elder Liu.
Now that an unfamiliar elder had arrived, it was highly likely that Elder Liu was inconveniently unavailable.
“This is a letter for Sect Master Shen from Liu Shiqian, please take a look.”
Elder Chi Yang stood up straight, foregoing further small talk. After all, being an elder of the White Jade Capital, groveling before such a young Returned Void Cultivator was not something the old man could bring himself to do.
Moreover, after reading the letter, the Sect Master probably wouldn’t be in the mood for pleasantries.
An opponent that even Liu Shiqian found troublesome would likely be enough to rob Sect Master Shen of peace.
However, Elder Chi Yang didn’t see the expected vigilance on Sect Master Shen’s face.
Shen Yi glanced down slightly, seriously scanning the content of the letter.
Then he looked up and said softly, “Thank you for your trouble, Elder Chi Yang.”
Chi Yang hadn’t intended to get involved in this matter, but seeing Shen Yi’s calmness, he couldn’t shake the feeling that perhaps Shen Yi hadn’t understood the letter’s content. Could it be that Elder Liu had once again used his usual cryptic language, or did he deliberately minimize the situation to spare Sect Master Shen?
With these thoughts, he couldn’t help but add, “You might want to send a message to the subordinate forces as soon as possible to make arrangements; otherwise, when those demons free up their hands, it could lead to unnecessary losses.”
“It could be a loss so great that it’s tough for you to accept,” Elder Chi Yang instinctively emphasized.
Shen Yi stood up and walked towards the outside of the hall: “Let’s go.”
“Go, go where?” Chi Yang looked on, perplexed.
Shen Yi fell silent for a moment, then looked back at him, puzzled.
The letter from Elder Liu was about the trouble caused by the revelation of the affair involving Ke Shisan’s slaying.
If there’s trouble, it must be dealt with.
Where else could he possibly go?
As their eyes met, Chi Yang stood there, stunned… If he hadn’t misunderstood, Sect Master Shen was planning to find Liu Shiqian?
Only at this moment did he finally understand why Elder Liu had such faith in the young man before him.
No wonder the two of them dared to stir up such a big mess on their own.
One was bolder than the other!
A Returned Void Cultivator was now willing to get involved in matters that even the White Jade Capital found vexing; either Shen Yi had gone mad, or he himself had.
“Elder Liu didn’t mean that! Don’t get me in trouble!”
Chi Yang instinctively wanted to grab him but immediately remembered the disparity in their statuses and quickly retracted his hand.
“He wanted you to hide and ensure Nanyang Sect’s safety first.”
As the words fell, Shen Yi’s eyes flashed with strangeness, and without responding, he glanced outside the hall.
The implication was obvious.
Where could he hide? The issue of slaying two Dragon Descendants, once revealed, was bound to lead to relentless pursuit.
Moreover, Shen Yi still planned to continue the slaying.
Ke Shisan was simply too useful; after experiencing the aid of such a demon prodigy, he really didn’t want to hear the common demons chattering for a thousand years and producing nothing of value.

Rather than watch helplessly as Liu Shiqian faced the pressure from the Dragon Palace alone, it was better to take advantage of his current strength to pull on the banner of the Pure Moon Sect a bit more.
Chi Yang turned his head back blankly, watching as not a single person among the Nanyang Sect, including Xuan Qing, questioned Sect Master Shen’s decision.
It seemed he had misunderstood something.
Shen Yi didn’t appear to be that sort of “Sect Master;” his status within the Nanyang Sect was identical to that of the six Union Dao Realm giants of the Alliance Sect.
