Chapter 979: Old Swine
There might be quite a number of daoists in the world dressed like this, but one so young, so outstanding, and able to enter the underground prison of Myriad Heaven Palace so easily, there was only one.
The current Temple Master of Infatuation Daoist Temple, Yun Jianyue.
Li Yu looked at Yun Jianyue and hurriedly gave a daoist salute. But before he could ask anything, Yun Jianyue spoke first, “This humble daoist has learned of Zhu Xia’s matter, which is why I hurried here like this.”
Back then, someone from Mount Xi had escaped and brought the news to the Divine Capital. At the time, Li Yu had only thought of having Chen Chao handle this matter, so he did not have anyone notify others. But while Chen Chao was rushing over to Mount Xi, he still informed this young Temple Master of Infatuation Daoist Temple.
With the strength of one person, facing the leading sect of the Great Peace Dao lineage was, no matter how one looked at it, not something easy. Myriad Heaven Palace was not Purple Leaf Grotto, it was truly not something that could be flattened just by saying so. However, Yu Xiyi was still at the Northern Frontier. Within Great Liang territory, whether Chen Chao wanted to mobilize a great army or summon a group of cultivators to rush to Mount Xi, he could do so. It was just not suitable. So in the end, Chen Chao only informed Yun Jianyue.
The matter would remain between the two of them and would not blow up too big. And with Yun Jianyue, this matter could probably be handled.
Li Yu said with emotion, “For Daoist Yun to come is truly beyond expectation.”
The Myriad Heaven Palace Lord also said, “It was originally a family matter, yet in the end it alarmed Daoist Yun. Truly shameful.”
Yun Jianyue opened the cell door and shook his head. “The affairs of Mount Xi indeed should not involve this humble daoist, but this humble daoist does have some personal ties with Zhu Xia. If she were to be harmed like this, this humble daoist would also find it hard to bear.”
