Only My Way

The next day, early morning.

Ling Wuyuan, who was eating breakfast, was ultimately shocked by the bad news.

"Ah??"

"The matter is already over??"

"What do you mean 【Shadow Listening Pavilion traitor】 has already been taken back for serious education, and those evil cultivators who dared to lure their members to betray the sect have already been personally executed on the spot by the 【Shadow Listening Pavilion Master】 as a warning to others??"

"Did anything happen yesterday??"

Faced with the bad news from Pei Yiman.

Ling Wuyuan, who originally wanted to continue leveling up using a whetstone, immediately felt extremely grief-stricken about the current situation.

Especially after realizing that he hadn't even been able to participate in yesterday's large-scale excitement.

That kind of grief and sense of loss.

Immediately received a super boost!!

What is currently happening, for Ling Wuyuan, is essentially somewhat similar to missing an important wild monster while playing a game, and even missing two rounds of wild monsters in a row!!

Although it can't be said to be a major setback.

It is definitely extremely regrettable!!

Directly causing him to lose large amounts of experience points!!

And facing his doubts, Pei Yiman, who was equally clueless about the truth of the matter, could only relay all the information she knew to Ling Wuyuan.

"I don't know the specifics."

"I only know that, according to 【Shadow Listening Pavilion】, the strong people they sent out, after searching and tracking for several days, finally managed to find the target after going through all kinds of hardships yesterday, and through subsequent exchanges, they quickly discovered that the reason why their people betrayed the sect was entirely due to the bewitchment of three evil cultivators and certain reasons that could not be revealed to the outside world (Deng Yong, Tang Shucheng, Yang Zhengyu: "Killing people to cover up the ugliness, right? What kind of team is this? Purely a black car!!")…"

"In short, 【Shadow Listening Pavilion】 said that the truth of the matter is very complicated, involving many extremely secret things, and it is said that it even involves some major long-standing entanglements within their sect (Di Zixuan: Yes, family members, long-standing emotional entanglements are also major entanglements.)… However, now, thanks to their efforts, the matter has finally been salvaged."

"Currently, in order to express their apologies, although their traitor has not yet caused any impact on you, the compensation that 【Shadow Listening Pavilion】 promised before, they still intend to pay as agreed, only hoping that we can understand their situation and not continue to delve into the relevant issues…"

After listening.

Ling Wuyuan only felt that he was somewhat speechless.

There was no way, although 【Shadow Listening Pavilion】 did have faults.

But the attitude they showed really didn't have any problems.

It could even be said to be quite considerate and dutiful.

Even Ling Wuyuan had to admit that the other party was indeed trying their best to make amends.

Not only did they notify him of the relevant news in advance.

They also managed to nip the problem in the bud before it actually affected him.

Besides this.

They were even going to give a large amount of compensation as agreed!!

To be honest.

Faced with this incredibly thoughtful service attitude.

Even Ling Wuyuan only wanted to give a five-star rating.

Thus.

After pondering for a moment.

He could only reply somewhat helplessly:

"…Okay."

"…Tell them that this matter is completely over, as for the so-called compensation, there's no need, just consider it as me repaying Elder Di Zixuan of their side for gifting me the floating rune warship back then."

Although Di Zixuan's floating rune warship did bring him some trouble.

But to be honest, that thing was indeed quite useful, and Di Zixuan really didn't intend to harm him.

So, as things stand, since the other party hadn't caused him any harm, then, even if he could sense that the truth of the matter was bound to have some hidden secrets, and was definitely not as simple as 【Shadow Listening Pavilion】 had stated, Ling Wuyuan still decided not to pursue the matter, and just consider the favor repaid.

After all…

He didn't even need to think carefully.

He could judge that the so-called repentant traitor must have some special relationship with Di Zixuan.

Otherwise.

Even if the other party knew that he had that floating rune warship on hand.

It would definitely not be easy for the other party to find something corresponding to it…

Just like that.

While responding to Pei Yiman.

Ling Wuyuan also silently shook his head and muttered to himself:

"Every family has its own problems…"

As a simple and pure person.

Although he didn't want to use his brain too much in these aspects.

He just wanted to be simple and straightforward, and kill, kill, kill all the way to solve all his worries.

But he ultimately always had a very clear understanding of many things.

Especially after combining it with his kind of mysterious intuition.

Most of the time, even if there was no substantial evidence, he could still piece together a pretty good picture.

Pei Yiman, who was far away in 【Southern Domain】.

Had no extra opinions regarding his answer.

Even though the compensation promised by 【Shadow Listening Pavilion】 was very, very tempting, even a super force would be tempted.

In her opinion, those things originally belonged to Ling Wuyuan.

Since the other party wanted to give up, then she naturally had no objections.

Moreover…

Hearing Ling Wuyuan's statement.

His statement that he owed Di Zixuan a favor.

Even though she was far away in 【Southern Domain】, a trace of contemptuous smile towards 【Shadow Listening Pavilion】 still appeared on Pei Yiman's lips.

No one understood better than her what it meant for Ling Wuyuan to admit that he owed the other party a favor…

As a guy who truly meant what he said and clearly distinguished between gratitude and grudges.

For Ling Wuyuan.

A favor directly meant that he could be asked to do something that didn't violate his own position and his own beliefs, including some things that sounded quite dangerous or even immoral.

After all.

Ling Wuyuan was not afraid of danger at all, nor did he have much morality, he was simply acting according to his own ideas.

Perhaps, at this current stage, with Ling Wuyuan's current strength, asking him to take action once would still not be able to change too much for a super force of the scale of 【Shadow Listening Pavilion】.

But what about ten years later, a hundred years later…

Therefore, losing the favor from Ling Wuyuan.

In the near future, it would definitely be a loss that would make 【Shadow Listening Pavilion】 feel heartbroken!!

Regarding this.

Pei Yiman had absolute confidence.

Moreover, it was worth mentioning that, just like Ling Wuyuan, Pei Yiman could also sense that 【Shadow Listening Pavilion】's answer was full of many extremely unreasonable factors.

For example: Their people were actually bewitched?

What are you kidding me here!?

Who are those people??

Those were top cultivators with strength reaching 【Original Appearance Realm】, were they existences that could be easily bewitched by others??

Are you kidding me here??

Thinking of this.

In Pei Yiman's eyes.

An extremely obvious killing intent immediately appeared…

But she understood even more that since Ling Wuyuan didn't want to pursue the matter, then things really could only end here.

To put it bluntly, she didn't think that the secrets within could be hidden from Ling Wuyuan…
