Chapter 979 979: Elder Kui's Fury!
"Reporting to Elder Kui, the incident happened today! Sect Master Gu personally led our eight hundred elites from the Hundred Knowledge Hall, along with two elders..."
Under the intimidating pressure from Elder Kui, Supreme Elder Nie Dewu forced himself to speak despite being drenched in virtual sweat.
He recounted everything from the earliest Blood Ganoderma incident to today's complete defeat of Gu Yuansheng.
After Elder Kui listened, he was furious. With a wave of his sleeve, he sent Nie Dewu and Great Elder He Shengfeng flying out of the hall. They tumbled awkwardly outside, their Qi and blood churning, continually coughing up blood.
"Useless fools!!"
Elder Kui roared, transforming into a gust of red wind, glaring intensely at the two on the ground: "For all the prestige of your Hundred Knowledge Hall as a subsidiary of the Tianji Pavilion, how could you handle things so incompetently? Not only did you let an unremarkable Demon Moon Alliance snatch the treasure, but you also got completely annihilated by a mere brat? Did Gu Yuansheng live all these years for nothing? And all your subordinates, are they just drunken wastrels?!"
"Cough, cough..."
Struggling on the ground, Nie Dewu coughed up blood, fearfully saying: "Elder Kui, indeed, we were ineffective, but that boy in Binhai is truly sinister. So young, yet his combat power is unfathomable. Even Elder Mian from the Main Pavilion suffered because of him..."
"How dare you retort!"
Elder Kui stepped forward, seemingly about to kill Nie Dewu with a finger.
"Elder Kui, spare us! We owe the Main Pavilion an explanation. I, He Shengfeng, am willing to take responsibility and make every effort to rectify the impact..."
He Shengfeng hastily knelt at Elder Kui's feet, speaking tremblingly.
"You?"
Elder Kui's anger was yet to subside: "How do you plan to rectify it?"
"From what I see, no matter how extraordinary that brat in Binhai is, he couldn't possibly slaughter over seven hundred people alone. Sect Master Gu was naturally proud and arrogant, and Elder Mian might have underestimated the enemy. It is known that arrogance leads to doom, so—"
He Shengfeng tried hard to analyze the possible reasons for their failure, as he had only heard about it and hadn't witnessed the battle himself.
Merely using his imagination, he couldn't fathom how Jiang Feng could have killed so many people, presuming there was negligence on the part of Gu Yuansheng and others.
"He Shengfeng, I know you; you're the second in command of the Hundred Knowledge Hall, right?" Elder Kui suddenly said coldly.
"Replying to Elder Kui, I am unworthy, serving as the Great Elder of the Hundred Knowledge Hall..." He Shengfeng quickly said.
"Very well! From now on, I appoint you as the acting Sect Master of the Hundred Knowledge Hall! I want you to bring that brat from Binhai to me at all costs. I want to see how extraordinary he can be, committing such outrageous acts at just over twenty!"
"I will not fail!!!" He Shengfeng was overjoyed as the day he had anticipated had finally arrived.
"I haven't finished! If you also fail, bring your head back to see me!" Elder Kui snapped harshly.
"Uh..." He Shengfeng was suddenly taken aback, his face turning into an expression of utter dismay!
"Ming Long!"
Elder Kui suddenly shouted angrily.
"Here!"
As soon as the words fell, a masked middle-aged man mysteriously appeared beside Elder Kui.
"From now on, you'll accompany He Shengfeng and Nie Dewu back to execute the mission! I want that brat from Binhai captured alive! If you fail, don't bother coming back!" Elder Kui bellowed wrathfully.
"By your command!"
The man called Ming Long accepted the order, instantly turning to He Shengfeng and Nie Dewu, giving a commanding shout: "Move!"
"Yes, yes!"
He Shengfeng and Nie Dewu then clambered to their feet, following the man named Ming Long as they timidly departed.
...
Nanzhe, Lake Heart Island.
The sky gradually dimmed to dusk.
After a lengthy burial and packing, Demoness and her group were finally all set to depart.
"Xiao Feng, we're all ready. We can leave now." Demoness said as she approached Jiang Feng.
"Mm, I have arranged for someone to pick us up, and they should be here any moment." Jiang Feng nodded.
He had already called Feng Yueji beforehand, explaining the situation with the Evil Moon side.
Feng Yueji was extremely shocked when she heard Jiang Feng had "incorporated" an assassin alliance.
Jiang Feng conveniently handed over the task of liaising with the Demon Moon Alliance to her.
As his only disciple, controlling the Fengyu Group, one of the top three elite groups in Binhai, organizing arrangements for two or three hundred people was not a difficult task for Feng Yueji.
Once Jiang Feng finished speaking, it wasn't long before the roaring of engines came from the horizon.
Looking up, they saw a giant aircraft flying over the set course, slowly descending over Lake Heart Island.
Faithfully executing Jiang Feng's orders, Feng Yueji didn't hesitate. When Jiang Feng requested her to pick people up, she promptly chartered a large aircraft and personally came to Lake Heart Island!
When the aircraft landed, Feng Yueji, stylishly dressed as a female CEO, descended gracefully from the boarding ladder.
Her graceful figure, adorned with black silk stockings, slender high heels, all highlighted her cool and alluring aura.
However, stepping onto the idyllic, otherworldly small island for the first time, Feng Yueji was also pleasantly surprised, her beautiful eyes curiously scanning around.
Soon, she saw Jiang Feng and quickly called out with a smile: "Master!"
Jiang Feng nodded, then proceeded over with Demoness and the others.
"Allow me to introduce, this is my apprentice, Feng Yueji. When you reach Binhai, you will work by her side; she will arrange everything properly." Jiang Feng introduced Feng Yueji to Demoness and the others.
Disciple?
The women of the Evil Moon present never expected Jiang Feng to have a female disciple.
Moreover, this female disciple was also stunningly beautiful and carried her own charisma.
"Hello, President Feng."
Demoness extended her fair hand, taking the initiative to shake hands with Feng Yueji.
"You're the Fox Master Demoness, right? Master told me about you over the phone. Since we are of similar age, there's no need to call me President Feng. Just call me Yue Ji."
Feng Yueji smiled as she shook hands with Demoness: "From now on, we're on the same side! With me, Feng Yueji, in Binhai, you won't be mistreated, and that's a promise!"
Demoness hadn't expected Feng Yueji to be so agreeable; the two outstanding women felt a mutual sympathy upon meeting.
Demoness smiled and said: "Alright! Yue Ji, then we'll rely on you. We'll give our best for you and Xiao Feng in the city, truly moving forward and entering a new life."
