Great Love Immortal Venerate: Why are all my fairies yandere?

Chapter 399: 220. Mu Qianyan’s Dilemma

Heavenly Dao Sect, the previous Holy Maiden…?

An Yulan’s sudden self-introduction left everyone present stunned in their tracks.

They had not expected that An Yulan would hold such an identity.

Jing Lixue looked towards Lin Qingque for the first time and saw her ponder for a moment before nodding subtly without any change in her expression.

It seemed then, her identity was likely correct.

Could it be an impersonation?

Possible, but there was no need for that.

After all, a lesser-known former Holy Maiden had no need for it.

Jing Lixue’s gaze fell on An Yulan.

‘The former Holy Maiden of the Heavenly Dao Sect?’

Xu Yuan’s eyes flickered slightly as he sensed the cultivation technique aura of the Heavenly Dao Sect emanating from her on purpose. Not denying nor confirming, he just looked at An Yulan and asked, “So, Saintess An, is there a reason for your visit?”

An Yulan gave a slight smile.

“What do you think, Xu?”

Xu?

All the women present felt a stir in their hearts.

Especially those among them with more intricate thoughts and deeper schemes, like Tian Liuli, Jing Lixue, and others, they grasped the implication behind this change in address.

Her choice of address meant she came today in the capacity of the Heavenly Dao Sect, not the Demon Sect.

In other words, whatever she was here to discuss today was likely personal. Even if it was official business, it was related to the Heavenly Dao Sect, not the Demon Sect.

“How should I know? My current connections with the Heavenly Dao Sect are quite limited,” Xu Yuan spoke indifferently.

An Yulan quietly observed him, and after a moment, she smiled lightly, “Is that so? If you say it is, then let it be so.”

“However,”

Her tone suddenly shifted, “The matter I am about to discuss may relate to the Heavenly Dao Sect. You might want to hear it.”

“Sorry…”

Xu Yuan shook his head.

“It concerns Master Mu. Are you really not interested?”

An Yulan’s eyelashes fluttered gently.

Master Mu? Mu Qianyan?

Xu Yuan’s mind replayed the scene in Dawn City, where the woman in the white dress floated ethereally, radiantly beautiful, her cold light turning into a bolt of lightning that cleaved the dark clouds and struck down the Return to Void Great Divine Communicator.

He frowned in thought; according to his memory, at this time, there shouldn’t have been any significant events related to Mu Qianyan.

Or was it because of her previous intervention that this current predicament came about?

“You may speak,” Xu Yuan said intently.

Despite not knowing what had occurred, it was related to Mu Qianyan, and he was willing to listen.

“Since the battle in Dawn City, Master Mu’s situation within the sect has been precarious. After all, Xu, you should know as well that the Heavenly Dao Sect values alignment with the heavenly way for success.”

“So? Are you implying that you will punish her?”

Xu Yuan’s lips curled up, clearly not quite believing her.

The Heavenly Dao Sect truly valued acting on behalf of the heavens, but an individual capable of exhibiting the strength nearing a True Person in Return to Void under certain circumstances constituted an unbeatable presence in this era void of True Persons in Return to Void.

Even if the Heavenly Dao Sect truly intended to punish her, did they have the capability or the audacity to do so?

After all, this world ultimately revered the strong.

“There indeed are voices of dissatisfaction within the sect regarding Master Mu’s actions that day, but due to her power, even the Sect Master does not dare to go too far. It’s just that…”

“Just what?”

Xu Yuan raised his eyebrows, looking at her.

“Just that, that belongs to the past.”

An Yulan let out a soft sigh, “Now, with the imminent major war between humans and demons and inside the Black Horn Domain, there is a Return to Void Great Divine Communicator who holds an old grudge against Master Mu.”@@novelbin@@

So that was it…

Xu Yuan suddenly understood.

At such a critical moment, the Black Horn Domain would be an essential battleground for both factions.

After all, the mere presence of three Return to Void Great Divine Communicators from the Demon Sect could sway the tide of battle significantly.

If there were only one Return to Void Great Divine Communicator, humanity might still hesitate, but when the other side of the scale included three Return to Void Great Divine Communicators alongside dozens of Primordial Spirits, the outcome would be entirely different.

“Thus, Master Mu’s standing within the sect is quite unfavorable now.”

An Yulan sighed softly.

“Why didn’t you say so earlier?”

Xu Yuan frowned slightly.

“I only just found out myself,” An Yulan said, rubbing her forehead with a hint of a headache,

“If it weren’t for that Return to Void ancestor of the Demon Sect speaking of it himself, I wouldn’t have known about this either,” she said with a wry smile.

“What do you expect me to do?” Xu Yuan asked.

Truth be told, if it were the Heavenly Dao Sect facing such trouble, Xu Yuan wouldn’t be too concerned.

But it was Mu Qianyan, after all.

Yet, given his current circumstances, what could he possibly do?

“In the upcoming battle for the position of Saint Heir, help me achieve it, and you must aim to secure the position for yourself as well,” An Yulan spoke earnestly.

“With that, our side would have at least two Saint Heirs. Using two Saint Heirs to compete against one Return to Void Great Divine Communicator is the only way to have a possibility of success.”

…

Within the City Lord’s Mansion, Mo Xianxian looked at the charming girl in the mirror, her hands cupping her face, a contented smile on her lips.

“I originally intended to find an excuse to motivate him, but now, there’s no need to search for one,” she murmured, “Considering the favor you’ve done for me, I’ll refrain from troubling you for now.”

However, if possible, it would be best to eliminate An Yulan first.

That way, even if Xu Yuan became a Saint Heir, the idea of opposing that Return to Void Great Divine Communicator would be untenable by himself.

Consequently, he would have to seek her help.

Of course, if An Yulan happened to succeed as well, it wouldn’t be a big problem.

As long as she showed opposition, it would suffice to eliminate one of the two.
