Evil Master and Disciple

Chapter 1373 No chickens or dogs left behind

Ever since he learned from Ling Yunzhi that Xuan Yingzhe had participated in the struggle for the throne back then and supported Yun Yi Shangren, Ye Fuyou had been depressed as if his wife had died.

As he said, he couldn't understand why the Shadow Master would support the second-in-command instead of himself.

His cultivation level surpassed that of the second-in-command, his prestige was higher than that of the second-in-command, and his influence within the Cloud Sea Sect was also greater than that of the second-in-command.

Since I am better than the second brother in every way, why doesn't the Shadow Master support me?

Ye Feng could sense the sorrow of his senior master in the sea of ​​souls.

Having spent so much time with his senior uncle, he knew that sensing his senior uncle's emotions was something his senior uncle valued highly.

The fact that Xuan Yingzhe supported Yun Yi instead of him made Ye Feng sense the sorrow in his senior uncle's voice. Ye Feng knew that his senior uncle must care a lot about this matter.

Ye Feng said, "Senior Uncle, although I am not old and have not experienced what happened between you and the Sect Leader back then, I think I can answer your questions."

How could you possibly answer my question?

"Actually, this matter is not complicated and is easy to understand. It's just that those involved are often confused while bystanders see clearly. Master Uncle, you are involved, which is why you can't see it clearly."

"Oh, talk about it."

Ye Feng glanced at Yue Yinling and the others who were talking to Tu Jiulong and Yang Qianxue, and estimated that it would be difficult for these people to finish their pleasantries anytime soon.

So Ye Feng said to Ye Fuyou, "Master Uncle, you must have heard the conversation between me and Sister Yinling in the inn room the day before yesterday."

Although Xuan Ying belongs to Ying Tang, it is independent of Ying Tang. Xuan Ying members obey the sect leader's orders, and at the same time, they are a sword hanging over the heads of successive Yun Hai Sect leaders.

For thousands of years, Xuan Ying has never been loyal to the leader of the Yunhai Sect, but to the Yunhai Sect itself.

Therefore, the considerations of the Shadow Masters are different from those of ordinary disciples and the Shadows of the Three Shadow Divisions; they are protecting the foundation of the Cloud Sea Sect.

My dear elder brother, if I may say something you don't like to hear, after spending so much time with you, I've come to know you quite well. You are a great ruler, but not a wise one.

At that time, the war between the righteous and the demonic forces had just ended, and the Yunhai Sect had suffered heavy losses in the war. What the Yunhai Sect needed at that time was a wise ruler, not a powerful one.

To put it bluntly, you are suited to conquering new territories and building empires. However, you are not suited to maintaining them.

This can be seen from those who follow you, such as your third senior uncle, who is known as the God of War of Burning Heaven. He is suited for combat, not for governing a sect.

The second senior uncle was different. He was calm and reserved, with a broad vision, especially in the cultivation of the younger generation of disciples, where he devoted himself to the best of his ability.

Looking at the entire history of the Yunhai Sect, how many sect leaders have valued the cultivation of the younger generation of disciples as much as Second Master Uncle?

At that time, the Yunhai Sect needed to recuperate and recover its strength as soon as possible from the war between the righteous and the demonic forces. Second Uncle was more suitable than you for this task.

As it turns out, Xuan Ying's choice back then was the right one.

"Senior Uncle, ask yourself honestly, if you had become the Sect Master of Yunhai Sect back then, could you have done as well as Second Uncle? Would Yunhai Sect be as powerful as it is today?"

Ye Feng's words completely baffled Ye Fuyou.

He finally realized why the Shadow Master had supported the second brother back then.

Yes, I am stronger than the second brother in terms of cultivation.

However, in terms of cunning and shrewdness, and the means to handle affairs, he was far inferior to the second brother.

If he had taken the position of sect leader back then, he didn't think he could have done better than the second brother. The Yunhai Sect would have gradually recovered, but it would never have been as prosperous and powerful as it is now.

"Hey……"

Ye Fuyou sighed softly.

This sigh was filled with endless vicissitudes, and also a hint of indescribable relief.

For over two hundred years, he harbored extreme hatred in his heart.

So in the stone cell, he carved so many words of resentment and curses.

After being away for more than half a year, the hatred in his heart gradually disappeared.

Seeing that Ye Fuyou had stopped speaking, Ye Feng withdrew his mind from the Sea of ​​Souls.

He wasn't good at comforting people, and didn't know how to comfort his senior uncle.

However, he believed that his senior uncle was no ordinary person and that he would be able to figure things out and completely let go of the past.

After withdrawing his mental focus, Ye Feng asked Tu Jiulong, "Uncle Tu, it's almost midnight. Are all our people in position? What's the situation at Cloud Mist Manor now?"

Tu Jiulong nodded and said, "According to the intelligence we have, there are more than 120 people in Yunwu Manor, of whom more than 80 are cultivators who have reached the Sky Soaring Realm. The manor lord is named Situ Yunwu, a cultivator in the Celestial Realm. Our people have now surrounded Yunwu Manor."

Ye Feng asked, "Surrounded? How many of us are there?"

Tu Jiulong said, "Originally there were eleven people, but now with the five of you, there are sixteen."

Ye Feng's eyes widened, and he said, "Wait, Uncle Tu, I don't understand. You mean that the sixteen of us surrounded more than a hundred people from Cloud Mist Manor? I thought I had picked a soft target, but I didn't expect to kick a steel plate! Is it too late for me to go to another battlefield?"

Yang Qianxue chuckled and said, "Junior Nephew Ye, you don't need to worry. Although there are more people in Yunwu Manor, there is only one cultivator in the Celestial Realm, Situ Yunwu. If we can't even deal with them, then we old guys have lived for nothing all these years."

Tu Jiulong interjected, "You little guys haven't experienced real combat yet. When the fighting starts, just stay on the periphery and provide support. Also, tonight's operation needs to be swift and decisive."

The battle must be ended within the time it takes to drink half a cup of tea; show no mercy. After all, there's no need to leave survivors in this kind of situation. Regardless of who the opponent is, whether they are a cultivator or a mortal…

Ye Feng and the other young people looked at each other in bewilderment.

Tu Jiulong's words were already very straightforward.

In short, it can be summed up in four words: not a single chicken or dog was spared.

Shangguan Lan and Miao Xiaorou looked somewhat unnatural.

They grew up within the sect and were taught to uphold justice and act righteously.

Now, the fact that they were asked to slaughter the entire enemy family, sparing not even mortals, put some psychological burden on the two women.

In contrast, Ye Feng, Yue Yinling, and Yun Shuang'er were more open-minded.

Especially Yue Yinling, who was a member of the Shadows herself, was already used to this kind of killing to cover up wrongdoing.

Although Ye Feng came from Earth and had received higher education, he was also very clear that such things could not leave any survivors.

Although Ye Feng felt it was somewhat cruel, tonight's actions were not something he could control.

Moreover, Shen Feiyang captured his master, and all the things he has been planning over the years have been aimed at the Yunhai Sect.

This is the enemy.

Kindness to the enemy is cruelty to oneself.

Ye Feng cares for all living beings, but this does not include his enemies.

Yun Shuang'er, who rarely spoke, suddenly asked, "Uncle-Master Tu, how do you plan to deal with... Zen Master Sihai?"
