Chapter 144: Zu Fei’s Past
Talking about a few other things together with Shu Yao, Xuan Hao manged to find out that she is actually the current Sect Master of the Spring Flower Sect! Other than that, she also told Xuan Hao the reason why Zu Fei had been so hostile towards her, and it was not something Xuan Hao had expected.
Apparently, both of them had been members of the Spring Flower Sect in the past, but later on, Zu Fei had decided to quit and ended up joining the Flying Sword Sect due to some of the rules inside the sect at the time being way too strict for her.
Back then, the Spring Flower Sect did not accept any male disciples and was a rare sect with only female disciples and elders in it! They also had several rules that didn’t allow for any of the female disciples to get a dao companion and it just so happened that Zu Fei had met Feng Chen, the current Sect Master on a trip outside.
She had fallen for him almost instantly but knew that she would never be able to be together with him if she stayed in the Spring Flower Sect, so she ended up leaving the sect and joined the Flying Sword Sect as an honorary elder, slowly working her way up to her current position.
The reason why she was so hostile to Shu Yao, was partly due to the fact that most of the rules that had forced her to leave the sect in the past had been lifted under her rule as Sect Master of the Spring Flower Sect.
But this in itself, was not what brought about the earlier hostility of Zu Fei… What truly brought the hostility of Zu Fei, was the fact that she flirted with Feng Chen at every possible moment that they met in the past!
According to what Shu Yao said, Zu Fei was jealous because she flirted so openly with Feng Chen while she did not have the ability to do that as openly.
“Hah…” Xuan Hao let out a sigh when he observed Shu Yao’s expression when she explained this with a clearly jealous look on her face whenever she talked about Zu Fei spending her time together with Feng Chen as the Vice Sect Master.
These two are both equally dangerous, I think it is a good idea that I warn the Sect Master when he gets out of secluded cultivation…
Thinking about this, Xuan Hao felt that he was quite lucky.
At the very least, he did not have someone that troublesome to deal with and only had to worry about both of his disciples growing up well.
“Looks like the disciples are returning now that things have calmed down, I will return to my pavilion to check up on my disciples. You can look for someone called Elder Song, he will help you find a place to stay.” Sensing a few people walking over in the direction of the pavilion that they were currently staying in, Xuan Hao informed Shu Yao before taking his leave.
The fact that he threw aside the trouble of dealing with Shu Yao to Elder Song, did not bother Xuan Hao in the slightest.
Elder Song should be able to deal with Shu Yao without any problem until the Sect Master returns from his secluded cultivation…
Like this, Xuan Hao made his way back towards his pavilion, putting his full trust into Elder Song’s ability.
Shu Yao did not mind this arrangement either as she remembered the elderly man that she had seen Xuan Hao talking with on the way to the pavilion was called Elder Song.
Locking onto his location with her divine sense, Shu Yao made her way in the direction of Elder Song just as the first disciples took the first step inside the now empty pavilion to resume their earlier lectures.
…
Xuan Hao made his way back to his pavilion, but Chu Yang and Qing Yi had still not arrived yet, so he decided to finally go to one of the libraries and check if any of the two mystical rank materials he had gotten were useful for anything that could help either himself or his disciples.
He had already ignored looking into it for quite some time by now and decided that it was finally time to look into what use they had, if the Flying Sword Sect even had any records on them in the first place…
…
Around the same time that Xuan Hao made his way over to one of the nearby libraries of the Flying Sword Sect, Qing Yi and Chu Yang were both walking back towards the Mountain Peak where Xuan Hao’s pavilion was located.
“Do you think master managed to calm down Vice Sect Master Zu Fei? From what I heard she is quite unreasonable whenever she gets angry, I even heard that only the Sect Master can calm her down! Both Core Elder Wang Hu and Wang Lan failed when they tried in the past!” Looking in the direction of the Vice Sect Master’s Mountain Peak as she made her way through the sect together with Chu Yang, Qing Yi could not help but ask as she saw the earlier fighting had stopped.
“Hm… I think that it might have been the Sect Master’s guest that finally decided to act after being attacked by Vice Sect Master Zu Fei for the past hour or so… From that alone, she should also be stronger than the Vice Sect master Zu Fei!” Coming to his own conclusion, Chu Yang thought that it was the Sect Master’s guest that had finally taken action to deal with the Vice Sect Master.
No matter how tolerant the Sect Master’s Guest was, she would definitely get tired if someone kept attacking her unreasonably for one hour straight…
“True… I would most likely have attacked back the moment I got attacked by someone…” Thinking about it, Qing Yi could not help but agree with what Chu Yang said.
If it were her, there was no way she would just allow someone to attack her while only defending herself if she had the means to fight back!
“Ah, Qing Yi, do you know what that is?!” As Qing Yi thought about how she would respond in the same situation as the Sect Master’s guest, Chu Yang called out to her and even pulled on her robe, causing Qing Yi to turn around and look in the direction that Chu Yang was looking.
“This is…”
