Chapter 748: Chapter 049: The Secret of the Artifact Refining Alliance (5)

Chapter 049

At first, Leng Yun would discuss major issues with Hai Xiaoyao out of concern for public opinion. However, as Hai Xiaoyao kept telling him to make his own decisions, over time Leng Yun stopped considering Hai Xiaoyao’s opinions...

Hai Xiaoyao’s authority as the Alliance leader was gradually usurped by Leng Yun, but Hai Xiaoyao didn’t care at all! Because even if Leng Yun openly asked for his position as the leader, he would agree without a second thought...

It wasn’t until Hai Xiaoyao’s senior disciple was killed for no reason that Hai Xiaoyao exploded in fury. His senior disciple had been killed in public by Leng Yun’s disciple...

The reason given was that Hai Xiaoyao’s senior disciple had attempted to insult a female disciple under Leng Yun’s tutelage! Then, he was beaten to death by Leng Yun’s other disciples...

However, Hai Xiaoyao knew his disciple better than anyone else. The senior disciple had been taken in from a quiet small mountain village, was the oldest, the most composed, and had a character most similar to his. Normally speaking not even a word, how could he possibly attempt to insult another woman...

On the contrary, because of the senior disciple’s androgynously handsome features, he had often attracted countless women’s covetous glances. If he hadn’t been taken in by Hai Xiaoyao and become his disciple, he would likely have been snatched away by young ladies from great forces because of his looks...

As for that female disciple of Leng Yun, she had a questionable reputation to begin with! Only after investigating did Hai Xiaoyao find out that she had harassed his senior disciple more than once...

Although Leng Yun was his senior brother, Hai Xiaoyao was naturally unwilling to let his senior disciple’s wrongful death go unaddressed, so in anger, he confronted his senior brother, resulting in a big quarrel and a parting on bad terms...

After that incident, there was a period when Leng Yun and Hai Xiaoyao hardly spoke when they met, both fuming and stewing with anger...

Although this matter caused some unpleasantness between them, it wasn’t too serious and could only be considered a beginning. A hundred years later, the Artifact Refiners’ Grand Assembly in Lianqi City arrived as scheduled...

Several of Leng Yun’s personal disciples aimed determinedly at the top rankings! Unfortunately, in the end, the first and second places were taken by Hai Xiaoyao’s two disciples, while Leng Yun’s disciples only secured the fourth and fifth places...

The third place was taken by a young master from an Artifact Refining Family. Leng Yun, struck by admiration, publicly offered to take that man as a disciple...

However, he was rejected on the spot, and the man declared that he would only take Hai Xiaoyao, or Hai Xiaoyao’s disciples, as his master—otherwise, he would never accept a mentor...

This incident caused Leng Yun to lose face completely, and his hatred for Hai Xiaoyao deepened several folds...

Not long after, Hai Xiaoyao’s two outstanding disciples were tragically killed in their respective Artifact Refining Rooms, and Hai Xiaoyao discovered there were problems with his own body...

As a result, he sent the three from Zi Yunshan to the Artifact Refining Alliance in Wutu City on the pretext of training, assigning them the positions of Alliance leader, Vice Alliance leader, and Elder, and instructed them not to return to Lianqi City lightly...

Initially, Zi Yunshan and the others didn’t understand why their master had done so! It wasn’t until later, when they sent people to gather information, that they learned their master was suffering from a dire illness and was in constant seclusion...

The three were startled and realized something was wrong! After much effort and time, they finally found a way to sneak into the Artifact Alliance and meet their master, who was already a spent force...

This Broken Sword was the one their master had entrusted to the three of them! He additionally enjoined them that as long as the Broken Sword remained unrepaired, they must not return to Lianqi City...
