Chapter 471: Sun Xiaoyang Visits the Yixin Sect (Part 1)
Chapter 471: Sun Xiaoyang Visits the Yixin Sect (Part 1)
Yao Ping'an spoke with a deep voice, his tone filled with surprise and shock.
"Yixin Sect's Starlight Chief?"
Fang Che abruptly lifted his head, his eyes shooting out a sharp light: "Are you sure?"
"Absolutely sure!"
Yao Ping'an affirmed: "I saved him! Although his appearance has slightly changed, in the eyes of a healer, these changes are insignificant. Even if he had changed more, I could still recognize him at a glance."
"Starlight Chief, I'm hearing about this for the first time..."
Fang Che took a deep breath and said: "Yao Miracle Doctor, it's not that I don't believe you. But the Heavenly Escort Bureau is now involved in a huge matter. They have always followed the law, and the escort leaders are all honest. Moreover, they cooperate with the Guardian Palace, so I must be cautious."
"That's natural."
As Fang Che spoke, Yao Ping'an, on the contrary, felt relieved.
Conversely, if Fang Che had believed him directly, Yao Ping'an would have felt it was unbelievable.
"Heavenly Escort Bureau... In terms of escort capabilities, they are currently the undisputed number one in the seventeen southeastern continents. Their business volume is enormous, and the goods they handle daily can be described as mountains and seas..."
Fang Che pondered, his brows furrowing tighter: "Yao Miracle Doctor, for this matter, I need solid evidence."
"I can't provide that. I don't have any evidence on hand."
Yao Ping'an shook his head decisively: "After discovering Starlight Chief, my heart has been pounding. Because my shop is located right across from the Heavenly Escort Bureau. If Starlight Chief had found me, he would definitely target me. So, I also plan to move out tomorrow."
"Yao Miracle Doctor, you must understand that false accusations come with responsibility, especially for such a major matter. Once it's exposed, it will likely cause a huge uproar. This is the inner city of the White Cloud Continent! So, before the matter is thoroughly investigated, you cannot leave my sight!"
Fang Che's tone was steady, but his words carried an undeniable command.
"Of course."
Yao Ping'an said: "Although I'm old, in matters of eradicating evil and upholding justice, I can still hold my ground. I'll stay wherever you arrange for me, Fang Leader."
Fang Che smiled bitterly: "It seems you don't even have money for accommodation?"
Yao Ping'an laughed: "Yes, I'm indeed short on funds."
"I'll arrange your accommodation. But before that, there are many things you need to clarify to me, or I still won't fully trust you."
Fang Che's warning was solemn.
"Fang Leader, I'm willing to speak without reservation."
Yao Ping'an's heart settled.
It seemed that using Fang Che to inform the upper echelons of the Guardians would be a successful move to uproot the Yixin Sect's branch!
"When did you save Starlight Chief? Where was it? What cultivation level was he at? What position did he hold? What injuries did he have?"
Fang Che asked.
I didn't even know that you had saved Starlight Chief, and you actually saved him...
"It was about five years ago when I was collecting herbs in the Cloud Peak Mountains. Someone fell from a cliff, their bones shattered, and their internal organs ruptured... It seemed they were knocked down in a battle. Luckily, their body got caught on a tree and didn't fall to the ground."
Yao Ping'an's choice of location was quite clever.
The Cloud Peak Mountains were not far from Fang Che's familiar Hundred Pestilence Peak.
Of course, it was also not far from the White Cloud Continent.
"Then I urgently treated him. His cultivation level wasn't particularly high, just at the martial general level, but his self-healing ability was astonishing."
"Among the items he carried, there was... So, I inferred that he wasn't a righteous cultivator. But I still saved him, after all, I'm just a healer."
"Then... I learned his name, Starlight Chief. He was from the Yixin Sect."
"After Starlight Chief woke up, he expressed his gratitude a thousand times over. He promised to repay me, and this person indeed kept his word, later even sending me some Yixin Sect's pills. I must say, those pills were quite effective. They helped me cure numerous patients."
Yao Ping'an said: "After that one farewell, we haven't met for many years... I never expected to meet again in the city of the Guardians..."
He shook his head and sighed, his face filled with wistfulness and memories.
His expression was genuine as he sighed: "It's truly... fate..."
Fang Che's face turned solemn.
If someone from the Yixin Sect, like Mu Linyuan, heard what Yao Ping'an said, they would likely spit in his face.
What he said was complete nonsense.
But to those who didn't know the truth, it was absolutely convincing.
Because, among his words, there was one point that was completely correct, and that was... the current leader of the Heavenly Escort Bureau was Starlight Chief of the Yixin Sect!
Once this identity was confirmed, everything else would be considered entirely true!
Even if it wasn't true, it didn't matter anymore.
As long as the Guardians took action, they would never come back empty-handed! Moreover, they would be thrilled to catch a big fish.
This was the fatal blow.
Fang Che pondered, muttering: "Cliff... Starlight Chief... Yin Xiu, Escort Bureau..."
He seemed to be deeply pondering, confirming the authenticity of this matter.
Yao Ping'an waited calmly.
He wasn't in a hurry.
Because this was an ironclad fact! Don't worry if you don't investigate, once you do, you'll know everything I said is true!
I'm delivering a huge merit to you on a platter.
Don't want it? Hehehe...
Fang Che stood up and slowly paced in the narrow room, his brows tightly furrowed.
He muttered: "The Heavenly Escort Bureau is now a massive organization... If something really goes wrong, Yao Miracle Doctor, this is no small matter. It will sweep across the southeast... Moreover, countless merchants will immediately suffer losses, and once trouble starts, the losses will be in the billions.
Yao Ping'an spoke with a grave tone, "So, I didn't dare spread the news either. Currently, the only person we can truly trust is Fang Che."
Fang Che's expression was a mix of conflict, worry, and anxiety. He sighed deeply and said, "It's truly... an intricate web. Who could have imagined that the Grand Escort Leader of the Heavenly Escort Bureau is actually the demon head of the Yi Xin Sect? If it weren't for the Miracle Doctor saving my life, we would have all been deceived by him. If we had let him continue his schemes for a long time, the consequences would have been unimaginable."
This statement indicated that Yao Ping'an's claim about the Miracle Doctor saving Starlight had been completely believed.
Yao Ping'an's heart immediately settled.
He then spoke in a low voice, "Moreover, Fang Che... have you noticed that the escort leaders of the Heavenly Escort Bureau all have very similar cultivation levels? It's as if they are all from the same sect..."
Fang Che turned his head in shock, his eyes flashing with a look of extreme astonishment. He stared at Yao Ping'an, his body stiffening.
After a long pause, he said, "Do you mean... they are all from the Yi Xin Sect?"
Yao Ping'an replied, "I have no evidence."
Fang Che had already thought it through and spoke urgently, "Indeed... If you want to establish an escort agency, how could one person manage it alone? If you recruit from the Jianghu, there's a risk of internal strife. But if they all belong to the same sect, it's a different story."
"They are already in a superior-subordinate relationship..."
His voice grew more hurried as he spoke.
The more he spoke, the more his eyes shone with conviction.
Yao Ping'an's heart was completely at ease.
Fang Che then said decisively, "Since this is the case, Yao Miracle Doctor, you must relocate your Revive Spring Clinic. You can't stay here any longer."
Yao Ping'an asked, "Then where should I go?"
"I'll make the arrangements!" Fang Che declared. "For the time being, I'll book a guest room for you at the Four Seas and Eight Directions Tower for a month. If you wish to settle down in the White Cloud Continent, I'll provide you with a house. If you plan to travel the four seas and save lives, I can only offer you a sum of silver for your living expenses..."
Having achieved his goal, Yao Ping'an stroked his beard and smiled, "There's no need for a house or silver. After this matter is resolved, I'll leave the White Cloud Continent and continue wandering the Jianghu, saving lives. With my medical skills, I can alleviate the suffering of countless commoners in the mortal world. It would be a meaningful life."
"The Miracle Doctor's deeds are truly virtuous."
Fang Che admired, "Since this is the case, we must not delay. Tonight, you can move to the Four Seas and Eight Directions Tower."
"Good."
"As for these medicinal ingredients, I'll send someone to move them to the Guardian Hall after dawn. It's safer to keep them there than at the Four Seas and Eight Directions Tower."
Fang Che spoke with thorough consideration.
"That's excellent." Yao Ping'an wasn't concerned about such a small amount of medicinal ingredients.
He didn't feel any regret about leaving them behind.
Do you really think I'll continue treating patients? Haha!
These past few days of treating patients have consumed many of my precious elixirs... Treating these ordinary people is so tedious, and they don't even deserve such high-grade elixirs.
If it weren't for observing the Heavenly Escort Bureau and luring Fang Che here, I wouldn't have wasted my resources like this.
"Then let's leave now."
Fang Che stood up, frowning, "Yao Miracle Doctor, this matter is significant, and I need time to consider the next steps. After all, I can't report to just anyone at the Guardian Hall. I'll also need to find an opportunity to contact a highly reliable superior to handle this."
"In the meantime, I hope you'll stay out of sight and avoid meeting anyone. And most importantly, don't discuss this matter with anyone. It's for your safety."
Yao Ping'an nodded, "Of course, I'll cherish my life."
Fang Che continued, "After I report to my superiors, they will definitely want to meet with you, the Miracle Doctor, to understand the situation further. So, I must ensure I can find you at any time."
He looked at Yao Ping'an apologetically, "Yao Miracle Doctor, this might restrict your freedom, but it's necessary. I hope you can understand."
Yao Ping'an smiled, "How could an old man like me not understand such matters? Rest assured, I've already prepared. I'll stay at the Four Seas and Eight Directions Tower until this is over. I won't go anywhere else. You can trust me, Fang Che."
His thin face revealed a determined smile, "Exterminating evil and upholding justice is indeed the duty of the Guardian Hall, but we are also willing to contribute our meager strength."
Fang Che stood up solemnly, "The situation is not yet clear, but Yao Miracle Doctor's sincere intentions are understood. On behalf of the people of the White Cloud Continent, I thank you for saving lives."
He bowed deeply.
Yao Ping'an quickly stepped back, "Fang Che, your words are too kind. I've only provided information; it doesn't warrant such a grand gesture, let alone a life-saving favor."
"It's the least I can do. Your noble act will shine through the ages!"
Fang Che spoke solemnly, "Please, let's go! We'll head to the Four Seas and Eight Directions Tower now, and I'll escort you there while it's quiet and deep."
"Thank you, Fang Che."
Fang Che led Yao Ping'an to the Four Seas and Eight Directions Tower and directly booked a suite, paying ten thousand taels of silver in advance.
"This guest's dietary requests should be fully accommodated by the Four Seas and Eight Directions Tower. The expenses will be deducted from this ten thousand taels, and if there's a shortage, I'll send more."
"With Fang Che's assurance, we at the Four Seas and Eight Directions Tower will take good care of the guest."
"Thank you."
"You've worked hard, Fang Che."
After sending Yao Ping'an into the room, Fang Che spoke with him for a while longer, clarifying some doubts and confirming details once more.
This serious attitude made Yao Ping'an even more delighted.
Although lying was not easy, for someone like him, a seasoned old fox, it was a piece of cake.
Finally, Fang Che left with a heavy expression.
Watching Fang Che's departing figure, Yao Ping'an also had a grave look, as if he was worried about the state and the people.
But in his heart, he was laughing excitedly.
Seal God Palace, your super branch, your hope for upgrading your sect, is now nothing but ashes!
If I'm finished, you still think you'll be fine?
Ha ha ha ha...
...
Fang Che walked in the night breeze.
His heart was boiling with anxiety, and he kept thinking.
Who is this Yao Ping'an?
He must be from the Only Righteous Sect! And this is definitely an internal struggle within the Only Righteous Sect!
This matter must be resolved as soon as possible, but... should it be handed over to the Guardians or the Seal God Palace?
After much thought, he decided to notify both sides.
The Guardians would be on standby, while the Only Righteous Sect would act first.
He believed that Dongfang Sansan would understand his intentions.
So, he immediately went home and entered his study. A report was swiftly written.
The Golden Horned Dragon appeared again.
Ye Meng was stunned.
There was such a big event.
Looking at the extremely detailed report that 'Shadow' had delivered, which silently landed before her eyes.
Outside, the sound of Fang Che practicing his sword technique continued to be heard.
Ye Meng's heart raced, and she opened the report.
'Starlight exposed... Yao Ping'an, Four Seas and Eight Directions Tower... Fang Che is already contacting the Only Righteous Sect...'
The details were overwhelming.
Her heart pounded so hard it almost jumped to her throat.
Ye Meng didn't dare to delay.
She immediately began working, organizing, and summarizing the information, waiting for dawn to send the message after Fang Che left.
This news was simply... too shocking.
It could be described as earth-shattering!
Fang Che practiced his sword technique until the wee hours of the morning, then came in to wipe the sweat, preparing to rest.
He looked somewhat preoccupied.
But he forced a smile, and Ye Meng, feeling his pain, stepped forward to comfort him.
Fang Che pushed her down and began to work...
It seemed like he was venting his fears.
Ye Meng knew that Fang Che must be feeling very uneasy, so she tried her best to cooperate, hoping to give him some comfort...
...
Morning.
Fang Che opened the communication jade.
The Seal God Palace had not yet replied.
Fang Che was annoyed.
What was going on with that old man?
When he wasn't needed, his messages were frequent, but now that he was needed, he was nowhere to be found.
But this matter couldn't be delayed! It had to be resolved quickly!
Without waiting for a reply from the Seal God Palace, he decisively began reporting to the Heavenly Escort Bureau.
"Master, something terrible has happened!"
...
On the side of the Only Righteous Sect.
The Seal God Palace was now humbled to the ground, yet glorified to the sky.
He never thought that his small Only Righteous Sect would one day welcome a great person!
The Supreme Head himself, had come personally!
To inspect the Only Righteous Sect!
When Fang Che sent thethe Yin Yang Realm message, it was just past midnight, and the Seal God Palace was in seclusion.
In the morning, after coming out ofofofthe seclusion, he immediately encountered the great person.
When Duan Xiyang suddenly descended upon the Only Righteous Sect, the Seal God Palace was so stunned that he almost had a heart attack.
Why did this big shot come?
And with Yan Beihan and Aunt Hong.
The Seal God Palace didn't find it strange that Duan Xiyang knew how to find such a hidden headquarters; with Duan Xiyang's status, a simple inquiry would suffice.
"Greetings, Supreme Head."
The Only Righteous Sect knelt.
"Rise, this time I just happened to pass by and decided to take a look." Duan Xiyang didn't put on airs.
In his eyes, the Seal God Palace's status was not enough to warrant any airs.
In the hall.
Yan Beihan marveled, "Palace Master, this headquarters of the Only Righteous Sect is quite grand, you must enjoy this."
These words made the Seal God Palace break out in a cold sweat, andhehe"Least we lose face for the headquarters... I had to put on a brave face and build it a bit more grand."
Aunt Hong looked around with great interest.
The Seal God Palace carefully accompanied them, bowing deeply, like a eunuch serving the emperor, leading the three to a comfortable room and quickly serving them tea.
Duan Xiyang sat there, squintched his eyes, leaned back, and put on a relaxed demeanor.
This trip was mainly to accompany Yan Beihan, and Duan Xiyang himself had no interest in the Seal God Palace.
He didn't even bother to look at it.
If not for that disciple called Ye Meng, Duan Xiyang might not have even heard of the Seal God Palace.
Yan Beihan smiled gently, showing a lofty demeanor, neither too distant nor too close.
Just right to show the vast difference in status"Palace Master, how has the Only Righteous Sect been doing lately?" Yan Beihan sipped his tea and asked lightly.
"It's been fine, mainly there's been no activity. Following the Deputy Vice President's instructions, the Only Righteous Sect is now mainly lying low, and I don't dare to make any moves without permission."
The Seal God Palace sat straight, showing great respect.
"Hmm, has your disciple Ye Meng contacted you recently?" Yan Beihan asked casually.
"Ye Meng?"
The Seal God Palace's heart skipped a beat. Why was this lady asking about Ye Meng again?
The Five Spirit Toad had long warnedof Ye Meng's news, but with these three great figures here,, he dare to take out the communication jade to check the and's message.
