Chapter 1155: Visiting Gong Yue, Shang Honghua’s Injury, Whoever It Is Will Have to Die

The Three Clarity Daoist Sect was an ancient immortal orthodoxy in the Immortal World, and they had a long history. It was said that its Forefather once received guidance from the Three Clarities, the most powerful elites among Immortals, and obtained three Immortal Scriptures, which created the orthodoxy.

The Three Clarities were no ordinary elites among the Immortals. Their great cultivation could be considered the best in the Immortal World, and almost none was comparable to them, except those from the Primordial Realm.

It was a great blessing for an ordinary cultivator to obtain guidance from one of them.

Yet, the Three Clarity Daoist Sect’s Forefather managed to obtain guidance from all the Three Clarities, which was a rare opportunity.

Therefore, the Three Clarity Daoist Sect Forefather was regarded as the Immortal World’s Fourth Clarity.

Later, the Three Clarity Daoist Sect Forefather gave himself a name — Master Daoist Miao Qing!

In ancient Immortal times, Master Daoist Miao Qing possessed excellent talent and strength. He could even go against those in the Primordial Realm, but none knew whether he succeeded. Even until this day, it is one of the mysteries in the Immortal World.

Standing before the gate of the Three Clarity Daoist Sect, Chu Kuangren recalled the Three Clarity Daoist Sect records and was slightly puzzled. “Is it a rare opportunity for Master Daoist Miao Qing to get guidance from all Three Clarities?”

“Moreover, the guidance involved three Immortal Scriptures that could resonate and even merge. Could the Three Clarities have done it purposely…”

However, Master Daoist Miao Qing must be outstanding to obtain guidance from the Three Clarities. Unfortunately, he had passed away. Otherwise, Chu Kuangren would mentally spar with him and discuss the insights into the three Immortal Scriptures.

Besides, if the Three Clarities deliberately taught Master Daoist Miao Qing the three Immortal Scriptures separately, it made him even more curious about the merging of the three Immortal Scriptures.

“Brother Chu.”

At that moment, Gong Yue walked out of the gate and greeted Chu Kuangren. She had come to welcome him.

“Greetings, Sister Gong Yue.”

Chu Kuangren smiled. “Thank you for welcoming us.”

“Not at all, Brother.”

“By the way, where’s Honghua?”

“Um… Honghua is in closed-door meditation,” said Gong Yue with a smile.

Chu Kuangren frowned. Although Gong Yue hid well, he did notice her weird expression.

“Did something happen to Honghua?” Chu Kuangren asked sternly.

“Well…”

Gong Yue was silent for a while before she sighed. “Brother, let me take you to my place first.”

“Alright.”

Chu Kuangren nodded.

With that, he and others followed Gong Yue into the Three Clarity Daoist Sect, where they met some cultivators from the sect along their way.

Although subtle, Chu Kuangren noticed that Gong Yue’s status was not high in the Three Clarity Daoist Sect as some disciples did not greet her when passing by.

However, Chu Kuangren was not surprised to see that.

The Jade Clarity Immortal Sect was only a branch of the Three Clarity Daoist Sect and one with modest strength. Therefore, when the Fragmented Immortal Worlds converged and the ancient immortal forces merged, it was inevitable for the Jade Clarity Immortal Sect to lose the status they had in Planquilon Immortal World.

Like Gong Yue, the Planquilon Academy’s Dean was also in the same predicament. Without Chu Kuangren, the current Planquilon Academy would have merged into Inkstone Academy instead of becoming the nineteenth branch of the Hundred Academy.

Soon, they arrived on a mountain peak following Gong Yue. Compared to some of the caves and auspicious lands in the Three Clarity Daoist Sect, which were full of spiritual qi and medicinal herbs, the mountain where Gong Yue lived was shabby.

Its spiritual qi density was not even one-tenth of those in the caves and auspicious land. Such mountains could be found everywhere in the Three Clarity Daoist Sect.

“The condition here is poor. I’m sorry I can’t provide more for you, Brother Chu,” Gong Yue said with a bitter smile.

She used to be the Jade Clarity Immortal Sect Master, but she was only the Three Clarity Daoist Sect’s administrator now.

“I’m here to visit my old friends. After all, mountains are famous not for their height but for their Immortals; waters are miraculous not for their depth but for their dragons. Although the room is shabby, my values will not allow me to think so.” Chu Kuangren chuckled.

Gong Yue was stunned for a moment before she chuckled. “Brother Chu, you’re magnanimous. No wonder Honghua admires you so much.”

“Where’s Honghua?”

“I’ll go get her.”

Gong Yue got up and went to get Shang Honghua.

When Shang Honghua saw Chu Kuangren, she felt a little embarrassed. “My King, you’re here.”

“Do you still see me as your King? I’m here to visit you, yet you lied about being in closed-door meditation.”

Chu Kuangren snorted, and his gaze grew stern as he noticed that something was wrong with Shang Honghua.

She was injured, severely injured!

Her foundation might be affected if she was not treated in time. Even if her injury healed, her cultivation talent would be significantly reduced.

“You’re injured. How did that happen?”

“It’s just a minor injury,” Shang Honghua said while rubbing her nose.

“Shang Honghua!” Chu Kuangren raised his voice, and his expression was solemn. “Tell me. What’s going on?!”

Startled by Chu Kuangren raising his voice, Shang Honghua then told him everything that had happened.

It turned out that Shang Honghua had not been valued since she returned to the Three Clarity Daoist Sect with Gong Yue. For one, she was not a Heavenly Champion, and secondly, she cultivated the Divine Nine Wind Fury Scripture that Chu Kuangren had given her and not any of the Three Clarities’ Immortal Scriptures.

However, those were not what the Three Clarity Daoist Sect was concerned about.

After all, there were many disciples in the sect, and not everyone could be prioritized in training.

Shang Honghua did not care about it either. However, she later defeated a Three Clarity Daoist Sect Heavenly Champion in a duel.

She thought the Three Clarity Daoist Sect would value her after she demonstrated her strength and talent.

Unfortunately, the Heavenly Champion she defeated was a descendant of a Three Clarity Daoist Sect’s elder, and he suppressed the matter through his connections so that Shang Honghua remained unvalued.

Since then, he often oppressed Shang Honghua, and he even used a trick in a Daoist School try-out that caused Shang Honghua to suffer a serious injury.

That was pretty much what happened.

Chu Kuangren’s expression remained solemn after learning about the incidents.

However, the coldness in his eyes had grown more intense as if they were two unmelted icebergs. It was shuddering.

After explaining the incidents, Shang Honghua raised her head to glance at Chu Kuangren before quickly lowering her head like an ostrich.

She was a little scared, feeling as though she had done something terrible and her parents had found out.

“Now you’re afraid, huh? Why weren’t you afraid when you decided to hide the matter from me?” Chu Kuangren growled.

He suppressed his anger and looked at Shang Honghua. Then, he said sternly, “Sister Gong Yue, it’s one thing for her to hide it from me, but another for you to do that as well. How are you going to explain to me should something bad happen to Honghua?”

“It’s my fault.”

“King, I told her not to tell you,” said Shang Honghua.

“Brother Chu, Honghua was worried that you’d make an enemy of the Three Clarity Daoist Sect because of her. After all, the Three Clarity Daoist Sect…”

Gong Yue tried explaining to him that the Three Clarity Daoist Sect had a good background and was watched over by an Arch Gilded Immortal. With Chu Kuangren’s current cultivation level, he could not afford to have a conflict with them.

“Nonsense!”

Chu Kuangren bellowed before Gong Yue could finish her sentences. “They’ve hurt my people, and you want me to sit back and watch?!”

“Whoever hurts Honghua will have to die!”
