Great Immortal With Boundless Mana

Chapter 302: Thousand Year Zhu Fruit

Yun Changfeng silently watched Shui Yujun, observing the changes in his handsome face. Amidst his ease, Yun Changfeng also felt a hint of sympathy for Shui Yujun.

Being publicly humiliated in front of many disciples of the Heavenly Immortal Sect, Shui Yujun's accumulated prestige of several hundred years would be shaken and questioned.

Regardless of the reasons, Shui Yujun's grandiose actions failed to resolve the situation with Gao Xian, and instead, he was publicly slapped in the face by Gao Xian. This was a disastrous defeat.

Others would not analyze the rights and wrongs of the situation; they would only see Shui Yujun as incompetent.

To be honest, Yun Changfeng was somewhat surprised by this outcome. He had not communicated with Gao Xian beforehand about this matter.

The main reason was to prevent Gao Xian from getting into trouble and implicating him.

Facing the statue of the Heavenly Venerable Xuanming, he couldn't lie. He needed to discuss this matter with Gao Xian, but Shui Yujun's use of rhetoric made it difficult for him to explain clearly.

Shui Yujun also looked at Yun Changfeng. Now, he could take a gamble and directly question Yun Changfeng.

Only Yun Changfeng was relevant to this matter, while Gao Xian was irrelevant.

However, doing so would be too dangerous. If he couldn't overthrow Yun Changfeng, he would have to leave.

Shui Yujun weighed the pros and cons and decided to cut his losses in a timely manner. He bowed to Yun Changfeng and said, "Senior Brother, I was wrong about this matter."

Yun Changfeng sighed. His gaze swept over Shui Yujun's many allies, but how to deal with Shui Yujun was a difficult problem.

"As a Daoist of the Kun Sect, I have made such a big mistake. I truly have no face to continue serving as the Daoist of the Kun Sect."

Shui Yujun cupped his hands towards the many Gold Core Perfected Beings and said, "I will go into Closed Door Training for thirty years."

Before Shui Yujun could finish speaking, Ma Qianjun, the head of the Thunder Court, loudly said, "Junior Brother Shui, this matter absolutely cannot be done."

Tong Wenjun, the Daoist of the Fire Sect, also stepped forward and said, "The position of the Daoist of the Kun Sect is of great importance. It is a heavy responsibility entrusted to Junior Brother Shui by the sect. We cannot disregard the sect's affairs because of your personal matters..."

The other Gold Core Perfected Beings who had a good relationship with the Shui family also stood up, one after another, advising Shui Yujun not to resign.

Shui Yujun's face was bitter. "I suspect my fellow disciples and have committed such a mistake. I have no face to face the upper and lower levels of the sect. There is no need for you all to persuade me."

Tong Wenjun said to Yun Changfeng, "Senior Brother Yun, we can't really let Junior Brother Shui resign. The Eastern Wasteland is undergoing great changes, and the Wanling Sect is also watching closely. At this time, the sect cannot afford to be in chaos..."

Tong Wenjun wore a bright red Magical Robe. She had an ordinary appearance and figure, but her eyes were fiery red and exuded a powerful aura.

She spoke straightforwardly and had an irresistible dominance, like a raging flame sweeping over, giving a strong sense of oppression.

Yun Changfeng pondered for a moment and nodded. He said to Shui Yujun, "The position of the Daoist of the Kun Sect is of great importance, and it is a critical moment for the sect. Junior Brother Shui cannot easily resign."

By publicly making this gesture, Shui Yujun was asking his allies to stand up for him.

From his understanding of Yun Changfeng, he is still willing to consider the overall situation. Even if he wants to suppress him, he will carefully consider the consequences.

However, Yun Changfeng easily let him pass, which is somewhat unbelievable.

Shui Yujun's face showed a ashamed expression, "Senior Brother, I was really wrong this time. But everyone is right, this matter is of great importance, and I cannot resign so easily. That would be irresponsible to the Sect."

Yun Changfeng smiled in his heart. This old guy is really not polite, he immediately took the opportunity to step down.

Just now, several Dao Zheng members came out to speak for Shui Yujun. They are not all allies of the Shui family, but no one wants to break the current balance of power.

The main reason is that Qing Xuan and Qiu Shui have gained too much momentum, making everyone wary.

If he were to be aggressive, people would definitely feel dissatisfied and suspect that the Yun family wants to dominate the Azure Cloud Sect.

It is easy to push down Shui Yujun, but it will cause people to lose trust and loyalty. This kind of loss cannot be compensated by a position in the Kunbu Dao Zheng.

Yun Changfeng calmly weighed the pros and cons, and then gave Shui Yujun a way out.

But he couldn't just let Shui Yujun go like that. He said, "Junior Brother, you were indeed wrong this time, and you must compensate Gao Xian."

Shui Yujun nodded, "Senior Brother is right, it should be so."

He was about to state the compensation conditions, but Yun Changfeng said, "I heard that Junior Brother obtained three Thousand Year Zhu Guo in the Fire Palace. Gao Xian, as a Rogue Cultivator, has an unstable foundation. These longevity-enhancing and body-strengthening spiritual items are just right for him."

Everyone looked at Shui Yujun. Yun Changfeng's words were understated, but they knew that Thousand Year Zhu Guo was extremely precious.

It is said that Shui Yujun almost died in the Fire Palace for a few Zhu Guo.

Shui Yujun noticed Yun Changfeng's cold expression, and it was obvious that this was the condition given by the other party, and he couldn't refuse.

"Just as Senior Brother said."

Shui Yujun agreed readily, with no unusual expression on his face, but he felt extremely bitter in his heart. He paid a huge price for three Thousand Year Zhu Guo, and almost died in the Fire Palace.

He originally wanted to use the Thousand Year Zhu Guo to increase his lifespan, improve his foundation, and prepare for the late stage of the Advance Grade Gold Core.

Now, all these plans have fallen through.

It can be said that one wrong step leads to a multitude of wrong steps.

Yun Changfeng continued, "Gao Xian entered the mountain alone, without any support. He is already at the Foundation Establishment late stage, but he doesn't even have a decent Magical Item..."

The more Shui Yujun listened, the more he felt something was wrong. He hurriedly said, "I will supply Gao Xian with five hundred High Grade Spirit Stones."

"Junior Brother is generous." Yun Changfeng felt that it was almost enough. Even though Shui Yujun is wealthy, this cut would still hurt him, and it wouldn't be easy to bear.

Yun Changfeng then said to Gao Xian, "Shui Dao Zheng is not against you personally, so don't hold any grudges. We are like a family in the Shenxiao True Transmission, so don't let any rifts arise because of this..."

"I will follow the teachings of the Dao diligently."

Gao Xian and Yun Qingxuan had a casual relationship, but he couldn't be disrespectful towards Yun Changfeng. After all, Yun Qingxuan and Yun Changfeng were his seniors.

This time, Yun Changfeng failed to defeat Shui Yujun, and he was somewhat regretful. However, this was actually a good thing for him.

If Shui Yujun stepped down, he wouldn't gain any benefits and would instead become a thorn in the side of the Shui family.

Now, he had received compensation from Shui Yujun, which was truly in his hands. Of course, he would have to be polite to Yun Qingxuan when he returned.

Knowing Yun Qingxuan's personality, how could he possibly accept his things? That would be too vulgar!

Gao Xian accepted the storage bag handed to him by Shui Yujun with a polite and courteous attitude, appearing sincere and without any grudges.

Shui Yujun also expressed his apologies formally, saying, "I made a big mistake this time. It was all thanks to Junior Brother's magnanimity. I am truly ashamed..."

"You are being too harsh. Everyone makes mistakes."

Gao Xian said seriously, "I have great respect for Dao Zheng and Shui Shouzuo. I would never be disrespectful..."

Many Gold Core Perfected Beings saw Gao Xian's sincere attitude, and their expressions were somewhat complicated.

Gao Xian was the big winner this time, and his sincere and honest appearance seemed convincing, but lacked persuasiveness.

Due to this incident, all other routine ceremonies were naturally canceled.

Finally, Yun Changfeng, on behalf of the Sect Leader, gave each of the Shenxiao True Disciples a gift.

After the other Shenxiao True Disciples left, Yun Changfeng said to Gao Xian, "You have suffered injustice this time. However, the situation in the Sect is complicated, and it is not easy to deal with Shui Yujun."

He reminded again, "Shui Yujun is narrow-minded and will definitely hold a grudge against you. He is cunning and will not trouble you for the time being. But you must be careful of him."

Taking advantage of Shui Yujun wouldn't be so easy.

Gao Xian naturally understood this principle and nodded in agreement.

Yun Qingxuan was calm and indifferent, while Yun Qiushui was unrestrained and carefree. Their father was a formidable figure, with deep schemes and great calculations.

In front of Yun Changfeng, Gao Xian always tried to speak as little as possible.

"Of course, he wouldn't dare to cause trouble within Azure Cloud Sect."

Yun Changfeng smiled and said, "Once you form your Gold Core, you won't have to worry too much about Shui Yujun."

He reminded again, "The Thousand Year Zhu Guo is a good thing. After you go back, make good use of it and don't waste it. After all, Shui Yujun risked his life to obtain it, hahaha..."

Speaking of this, Yun Changfeng laughed happily, and Gao Xian also smiled, saying, "Thank you, Master Uncle."

There was no need to be polite with family.

Yun Changfeng patted Gao Xian's shoulder affectionately and said with some emotion, "There will be major changes within the Thousand Year. Shui Yujun and the like are despicable and incompetent. The future of the Sect will depend on all of you..."

Gao Xian was filled with enthusiasm by his words, but he gradually calmed down when he returned to his residence on Xuan Du Peak.

His Master Uncle Yun was good at coaxing people. He could draw a perfect and enticing picture, and if he were in his previous life, he could have been a master of pyramid schemes.

Of course, Yun Changfeng had also given him great benefits and genuinely valued him. It couldn't all be just empty promises.

Gao Xian opened the storage bag given by Shui Yujun, and the three bright red fruits inside caught his eye. The five hundred High Grade Spirit Stones shimmered and sparkled, looking beautiful no matter how he looked at them.

He had already killed four Gold Core cultivators, and the combined amount of Spirit Stones they had didn't even come close to this.

Mainly because the Gold Core cultivators from the Eastern Wasteland were really poor, no wonder they were so eager to enter the Ming Continent.

Gao Xian wasn't obsessed with wealth, but seeing so many High Grade Spirit Stones, he couldn't help but feel excited.

Five hundred red High Grade Spirit Stones were placed on the bed. Together with the four hundred High Grade Spirit Stones he had saved up, Gao Xian lay in the pile of Spirit Stones, feeling uncomfortable physically but extremely satisfied in his heart...

The feeling of becoming rich was truly amazing.

Gao Xian carefully examined each Spirit Stone several times before putting them into two storage bags close to his body.

He took out the Thousand Year Zhu Guo, which looked like a hawthorn fruit coated with syrup, with a shiny surface.

Yun Changfeng had said that the Thousand Year Zhu Guo didn't need to be mixed with other Spirit Medicines and had the best effect when swallowed directly.

After thinking for a moment, Gao Xian decided to go to the underground meditation room. No one would dare to disturb him within the Sect, and it wouldn't hurt to be cautious.

He closed the meditation room, activated the formation, and then consumed one Thousand Year Zhu Guo.

The fruit was sweet and sour, with a lot of juice, and surprisingly delicious.

The Thousand Year Zhu Guo quickly transformed into a rich and hot Spiritual Qi that spread throughout his body. Gao Xian's consciousness sank into his sea of knowledge, and he operated the Great Five Elements Technique while Lanjie operated the Five Elements Harmony Technique.

By operating the three hundred and sixty universes in this way, Gao Xian completely assimilated the Spiritual Qi of the Thousand Year Zhu Guo.

Gao Xian felt refreshed and comfortable all over. He took out the Wind Moon Treasure Mirror and saw that his lifespan had increased by fifty years.

The Thousand Year Zhu Guo could actually increase his lifespan by so much. No wonder Shui Yujun was willing to risk his life for it.

He couldn't help but sigh. Yuying, Yujun, they were all his benefactors! He wished he could thank them in person...
