Chapter 240 - 237 Going to Sea
In the midst of the sky, all was silent. The various masters from the major sects who had earlier advocated punishing and suppressing Ye Xuan had suddenly fallen silent, as if they had taken mute medicine, devoid of any momentum from before.
"This..."
Murong Yun and Zhang Wuchen exchanged glances, but in their hearts, there was a secret delight. Ye Xuan, by himself, had intimidated the heroes, leaving the masters of the major sects unable to utter a word. Such an imposing scene was something even Ling Jingtian had never achieved.
Now, this man and dragon duo truly possessed a shocking aura. Just Ye Xuan alone was capable of defeating the Bright and Dark Ming King, and coupled with a Flood Dragon whose strength was not in the least inferior, if they joined forces, it would likely shake heaven and earth.
Although there were many people here, it might be enough to trap Ye Xuan, but it would certainly come at a high cost, with at least half suffering losses, and it was still uncertain whether they could detain Ye Xuan.
However, it was clear that no one present wanted a scenario where both the fish and the net were lost. Even the Wildfire Sect wasn’t willing, let alone the other sect masters who were just here to add fuel to the fire—they were only looking to strike while the iron was hot. If there were indeed a risk to their lives, they definitely wouldn’t take the risk.
"Hehe, Ye Xuan, there’s no need to be so tense. No matter what, we are still allies, and even if there are some spies among us, it hasn’t come to the point of crossing swords. We have no intention of fighting you," said the Great Elder of Xingyun Pavilion with a benevolent smile towards Ye Xuan.
"That’s right, this matter, after all, involves your personal grudge with the Wildfire Sect, we won’t meddle any further," expressed the Sect Master of Earth Evil Sect, indicating his stance of staying out of the affair.
"That’s right, Ye Xuan, you are the great hero who exterminated the Black Demon Sect. How could we misunderstand and be at odds with you? It was all a misunderstanding just now, we’ll go and clear the battleground. We won’t accompany you any further."
The tense situation rapidly disintegrated. After all, it was the Wildfire Sect’s treasure that Ye Xuan had stolen; it had nothing to do with them.
In midair, the various sect masters who had been confronting Ye Xuan quickly found various excuses to disperse. Soon, only the people from the Wildfire Sect were left.
