" Ten Thousand Demons Sect, Nine Hell sect's Ning Luo, has come to congratulate you! "
A sudden shout from outside completely shocked everyone in the main hall.
" "Another one …"
"He really is here …"
"Ning Luo …"
Some of them were looking forward to the show, while others waited. Their gazes were all directed towards the entrance.
"Why is he here?"
Yuan Hong had received orders from the sect head and the elders to come here and pay his respects. However, he hadn't heard that Ning Luo was also allowed to follow him here.
Exterminate the Silence also frowned. It felt like the Myriad Demons Sect was up to something. If they were to disturb the Pure Wind Temple, it would be terrible. Just as he was about to take action, he was stopped by his Shakyamuni.
" "I'll just wait and see."
The Shakyamuni was indeed a capable senior. With a single glance, he could tell that the story behind it was wrong. That was why his expression didn't change, and he continued smiling like a flower.
Ning Luo had already arrived at the main hall. When she saw the old man sitting at the very top, she immediately cupped her hands and greeted him.
" "Martial Uncle Fa Wang, the first disciple of the Nine Nether Master, has come to offer his birthday congratulations."
His words were very different from what Yuan Hong had said previously. Of course, everyone felt comfortable listening to his words.
"Good, good, good! "As expected of a young hero. As expected of the head disciple of the Nine Nether Realm."
Yuan Hong did not know about what happened last night, so he was slightly stunned by the Shakyamuni's three cheers. However, Ning Luo was well aware of the meaning behind those words and couldn't help apologizing.
"This disciple has just arrived at this place and is causing trouble for the Shakyamuni."
"Sigh!" Young people are good at martial arts, so it's normal for them to fight. "
He had originally wanted to tell his master about this matter when he came back last night. He had been worried that his master would pursue this matter, but now that it seemed like it was all unnecessary thoughts, he secretly let out a sigh of relief.
" That's right! "When you came, did you know that the disciples of Blood Heaven Sect had also come?"
The Shakyamuni had a smile on his face as he looked at Yuan Hong. The moment their gazes met, the Shakyamuni's eyes seemed to shine brightly. He was not angry, but he still managed to frighten Yuan Hong.
" Blood Heaven Gate? "Could it be …"
"Junior brother Ning Luo!" "Long time no see."
Yuan Hong knew that the Shakyamuni's gaze just now was to ask him to explain the situation. Without waiting for Ning Luo to finish, he stood up.
"Greetings, Shakyamuni!"
Yuan Hong walked to Ning Luo's side and first clasped his hands at the Guardian King, then turned around and began to chat about family matters.
" I wonder if Junior Brother Ning Luo has returned to his sect after parting ways with them at the hunting grounds? "
Yuan Hong was thinking that if he were to admit defeat, Ning Luo wasn't a fool to be compared to him. How could he not understand this?
" "Thank you for your concern, Senior Brother Yuan Hong. I was in trouble on the way, so I decided to lend a helping hand and escort them all the way here."
"Oh …" In that case, even if you weren't ordered to come, you still wouldn't be able to represent the Nine Hell sect. "
Only now did the crowd understand the whole situation. Yuan Hong was here to offer his birthday congratulations, and as for Ning Luo, she was here to protect her friend.
"I am the eldest disciple of the Nine Underworlds Gate." I am the eldest disciple of the Nine Underworlds Gate.
" "But …"
" Alright! I am very happy that the two of you are here.
Something was wrong with the Guardian King, so he didn't stop the two from quarrelling. Otherwise, it wouldn't benefit him much if things got out of hand.
Ning Luo and Yuan Hong were both elites of the younger generation, and even more so elites among elites. However, in front of their elders, they still restrained themselves. Each of them clasped their hands and took their leave, returning to their seats.
Yuan Hong had just sat down at his seat when he suddenly heard a burst of laughter beside him. He turned around and saw that it was Xuanyuan Yu and Lie Changfeng.
" "The Tenth Brother of the Blood Heaven Sect is powerful indeed."
"That's right. To think that there would be people who do not dare to offend like you."
The tone of these two people were very cunning. They didn't want the Ten Thousand Devil Sect to lose face in front of everyone, so they could just sit back and enjoy the show.
"You all …" Yuan Hong's brows tightened as he suddenly recalled Ning Luo's exchange with the Shakyamuni. Only now did he realize how rude the two of them had been to him.
"You two, I assume that you two have not experienced enough of what happened last night. Could it be that you want to try again?"
It was impossible for him to know about the two of them. However, he was only asking so to probe them out.
As expected, when Xuanyuan Yu heard this, she flew into a rage and immediately slammed the table. But Lie Changfeng who was beside her was quick to react; he was on the same rope as Xuanyuan Yu, how could they not help each other out?
" Young Hall Master, you should first record down this debt, and then, it will not be too late to seek them out for revenge. "
Xuanyuan Yu knew what Lie Changfeng meant. It was the Clear Wind Temple right now, so if they really got into an argument, it would be useless. In the end, she coldly harrumphed and ruthlessly took her seat.
At this moment, Yuan Hong started to make plans in his head. Ever since Ning Luo gained his fair share of insights into the Dao, his strength had increased by the day. If this were to continue, it would be even harder to deal with him.
Ning Luo sat beside Monk. Monk glanced at him and reminded him.
" "Brother Ning Luo, I'm afraid your senior brother here has a bad heart."
On the hunting grounds, Yuan Hong had already started plotting against her. Yet, now that he was arguing with her, Ning Luo's heart was clear as a mirror.
" Thank you for your warning, big brother Monk.
Actually, the purpose of the birthday celebration was to increase the relationship between the several great powers who gathered together and carried out the birthday celebration.
Because the older generation's era was about to pass, the various large sects had all sent out their own disciples, which would let them witness the following major events. After all, these were all disciples with bright futures.
After the birthday celebration ended, Clear Wind Temple decisively invited everyone to stay. But even so, there were still a few disciples who left. As for Xuanyuan Yu and Lie Changfeng, they disappeared the moment the meeting ended.
No one needed to ask to know the reason. They had lost to Ning Luo last night, how could they have the face to stay behind today?
As for Yuan Hong, he was also bidding farewell to the Shakyamuni, claiming that there were many troublesome matters in his sect and that he needed to leave immediately.
Since he had already said so, the Shakyamuni would not keep him any longer. He just needed to send off the guests. When they were about to leave, Yuan Hong walked past Ning Luo and gave her a ruthless smile.
" "Farewell, Junior Brother Ning Luo."
Ning Luo had called him senior just now, but that was just to give face to the rest of the world. Now that they were all gone, there was no need to give him any face.
"I won't send you off."
With that, he turned around and walked into the crowd in search of Hua Wushuang. Only Yuan Hong glared fiercely at Ning Luo before he coldly snorted and walked away.
