Chapter 148: Smash and Grab
Elder Demon Devourer made his way out of the Elder Pavilion with Qing Yi and Chu Yang following closely behind him, still not sure about what had just happened other than the fact that this Elder Demon Devourer was angry at Elder Song due to him not delivering the young girls medicine on time.
The path they were walking on was leading deeper into the sect where the Core Elder’s Mountain Peaks and personal housing was located, this was also not that far away from where Xuan Hao’s Mountain Peak was located.
Qing Yi and Chu Yang both noticed this as they followed behind Elder Demon Devourer.
“Is Elder Song perhaps one of the higher ranked elders?” Chu Yang could not help but ask as he looked at the different mansions scattered around them, each had a powerful aura leak out from inside, either stemming from the defensive formation in place or the person cultivating inside.
“I don’t know, he might also just be running an errand for another elder that ended up delaying him.” Qing Yi did not really know much about the Elder Song that they were looking for and had not really stopped to think about the fact that he might actually be a strong elder from the Flying Sword Sect.
But then again… Looking at the angry Elder Demon Devourer charging ahead while cursing at Elder Song every few seconds, Qing Yi felt that this Elder Song might not be a strong elder from the Flying Sword Sect.
If he really were, how could Elder Demon Devourer have the courage to curse him so openly without fear of getting beaten up? At least from what Qing Yi could tell when the other elders in the Elder Pavilion teased him, Elder Demon Devourer should just be a normal Inner Eder in the sect.
With that in mind, Elder Song should also be an Inner Elder just like him or maybe even an Outer Elder!
“Hmph, that bastard is up there! You brats wait here for a moment I will be back soon!” Stopping in front of a small hill with a beautiful mansion situated on top of it, Elder Demon Devourer told both Qing Yi and Chu Yang to stay as he made his way up the small hill.
Crash!
“Old bastard Song! I know you are in there!” Reaching the top of the hill, Elder Demon Devourer was not planning to wait for even a second as he smashed the door to the mansion and made his way inside under the flabbergasted gaze of both Qing Yi and Chu Yang.
“How does he even know that Elder Song is there in the first place…?” Looking up at the destroyed entrance to the mansion, Chu Yang could not really comprehend how Elder Demon Devourer managed to find out where Elder Song was located.
Perhaps he already knew where he was beforehand?
Seeing that Qing Yi did not have an answer to his question, Chu Yang could only think that Elder Demon Devourer had known the location of Elder Song beforehand.
But even then, what about the elder who owned the mansion? Would he not be enraged upon seeing someone suddenly smashing the front door and entering without permission?
…
Elder Song was currently in the process of finishing the last few things before Shu Yao could settle into the dwelling or mansion that she had chosen to stay in when he suddenly got a message on his communication talisman from his best friend, Elder Demon Devourer, asking him where he was currently.
Not thinking much about it, Elder Song told him where he was and that he should be able to come to the Elder Pavilion in a bit to have the chess match that they had agreed on before the whole thing with the Vice Sect Master happened.
Like this a few minutes went by as Elder Song was about to leave the mansion, he suddenly heard the angry voice of his old friend Elder Demon Devourer.
“Old bastard Song! I know you are in there!” Following this, the main entrance to the mansion in front of him flew open and crashed into a nearby wall.
“Old Demon, what on earth are you doing!?” Not understanding why his good friend would suddenly come running and even smash the main door, Elder Song had a confused look on his face as Elder Demon Devourer made his way over to him and grabbed him by the neck before starting to berate him about the fact that he had forgotten to deliver the young missy’s medicine on time.
Elder Song also seemed to have realized the reason for his friends’ anger and felt a bit embarrassed, how could he forget to deliver his granddaughter’s medicine!
Shu Yao standing by the side observed the two of them with a slight smile on her lips, not intending to interfere in the slightest as she watched Elder Demon Devourer grab hold of Elder Song and carry him out of the mansion before he could explain the situation to Shu Yao.
“No need to worry about it Elder Song, I’m already fine with this place. You can just go and do what you delayed so far…” Sending over a message through her divine sense, Shu Yao did not take up anymore of Elder Song’s clearly busy schedule and decided to be a good guest.
Elder Song let out a sigh of relief upon hearing Shu Yao’s message and would have bowed gratefully in her direction if he were not getting carried away by Elder Demon Devourer at the moment.
“Looks like it would be quite interesting if the Flying Sword Sect and Spring Flower Sect really merged with each other…” Thinking about how uptight and strict most of the disciples and elders from her sect were, Shu Yao felt that it might be a good change of pace if they could interact with the more… Lively elders of the Flying Sword Sect…
“All I can do is hope that Fengfeng agrees…” Thinking about Feng Chen who would ultimately have the final say in whether the two sects would merge together, Shu Yao could not help but feel a bit nervous.
The amount of time and effort she had used on convincing the upper echelons of the Spring Flower Sect to this merger was not small and now all she could do was hope that Feng Chen would agree.
At the very least, it seemed like the elders from the Flying Sword Sect would not be difficult to get along with in the future…
