I Can Recognize Everything, But the Information is Wrong-Chapter 116 - 103 Bell_2

As he spoke, Elder He, who had been closing his eyes to rest, suddenly opened his eyes:

"There’s no misunderstanding. The Heart Inquiry Sect has said, if any Blood Sect Devotee from the Yao Yue Sect comes, kill on sight. Even if it’s just a white-robed disciple, detain on sight —

I’m afraid as soon as Brother Xing’s letter is delivered, the people of the Heart Inquiry Sect will not be able to suppress their rage and will come to kill."

Tian Lin glanced at Elder He’s face and noticed a sword wound on his cheek.

Clearly, Elder He had also had a major fight at the Heart Inquiry Sect.

And the reason he was able to return was not because the Heart Inquiry Sect let him go, but because he escaped with his own abilities.

"Speaking of which, the Heart Inquiry Sect has always stayed out of worldly affairs, why do they detest the Blood Sect Devotees so deeply that they are willing to fall out with our Yao Yue Sect?"

Elder Feng frowned in confusion, and Elder Xiao, who stood next to him, scoffed:

"This is all the fine work of our Sect Leader Xing! If it weren’t for the fear that the Yao Yue Sect would fall apart, I would have taken a group of people and fought it out with him."

A thought occurred to Tian Lin who stood nearby.

Setting aside the illusion on the tenth step for now, he remembered that in the illusion on the nineteenth step, Zhou Qing was killed by a Blood Sect Devotee.

Since everything in the illusions actually happened a thousand years ago, it means that the death of Zhou Qing at the hands of the Blood Sect Devotee, and Zhou Shoufan becoming an orphan from a young age, really occurred.

Since the Heart Inquiry Sect was founded by Zhou Shoufan, it’s not surprising that everyone in the sect despises the Blood Sect Devotees deeply.

"We can’t do this, we can’t do that, so my disciple is detained and I, as his master, am supposed to play the coward?"

Elder Xiao became angrily embarrassed and stood up once again.

Elder Feng immediately replied, "It’s not impossible for Xiao Shidi to go to the Heart Inquiry Sect, but to avoid irreversible consequences, it’s best to extend courtesy before resorting to force."

"What do you mean ’extend courtesy before resorting to force’?"

Elder Feng explained, "Send a disciple to the Heart Inquiry Sect to personally deliver your letter —

The Heart Inquiry Sect dislikes only the Blood Sect Devotees, right? As long as they know that your Baihua Peak isn’t filled with Blood Sect Devotees and understand that you, Elder Xiao, also abhor the Blood Sect Devotees, they will most likely give you face."

Elder Xiao nodded slightly; indeed, he detested the Blood Sect Devotees and was not fond of the red-robed disciples in the sect.

"This may not be appropriate."

A jolt went through Tian Lin’s heart, and to avoid having this onerous task fall upon himself, he decisively said:

"Disciple has heard that the Daoists of the Heart Inquiry Sect are quite eccentric; once they’ve resolved on a matter, they absolutely refuse to change it. I’m afraid just a letter —"

He was racking his brains for a suitable reason when Elder Feng said, "Whether it will be successful or not, we won’t know until we try."

Tian Lin was momentarily speechless. Elder Feng spoke lightly, but for the disciple tasked with delivering the letter, this ’try and see’ was not easy at all.

"If it really doesn’t work, I’ll go to the Heart Inquiry Sect and fight once my injuries have healed. If they refuse to surrender the person, I’ll slaughter every man, woman, and child in the Heart Inquiry Sect!"

Elder He sounded excited as he spoke, making Tian Lin suspect he was simply eager to kill, rather than rescue anyone like Han Yue.

"That won’t do!"

Elder He’s words forced a decision from Elder Feng, who stood up and directly ordered Tian Lin:

"Nephew Tian, you are now the head disciple of Baihua Peak. According to reason, when there’s an issue with younger brothers and sisters of the peak, it’s your responsibility to deal with it. So this task of delivering the letter, you’ll have to take it on, okay?"

At this point, what more could Tian Lin say?

He nodded, but then said, "In a few days, it will be the time for the sect’s grand competition. Should the disciple wait until after the competition to depart?"

Elder Feng, however, waved his hand and said:

"I will make the decision on this. You don’t need to participate in the life-or-death competition. As long as you can bring Han Yue back from the Heart Inquiry Sect, not only will your position as the leading disciple of Baihua Peak be preserved, but I will also gift you a flying sword and a Flying Boat."

He observed that upon entering the cave, Tian Lin’s attention was first drawn to the swords, guessing that Tian Lin was very eager for a flying sword.

And the so-called Flying Boat was merely essential for Tian Lin to deliver messages quickly. Otherwise, they couldn’t possibly expect Tian Lin to travel across half of the Heart Inquiry Sect by horseback, could they?

Moreover, if Tian Lin appeared too destitute, it would inevitably tarnish the grandeur of the Yao Yue Sect.

"In that case, the disciple shall depart early tomorrow morning."

Seeing that his refusal was futile, Tian Lin simply accepted the task.

On the other side, Elder Xiao said to Tian Lin, "You return to Baihua Peak first, and I will find you later this evening."

Tian Lin left the cave and found that Zhao Si was still there waiting.

He looked at Zhao Si in confusion and heard him say, "Brother Tian, Brother Shang has asked me to wait for you here."

Tian Lin followed Zhao Si from behind the mountain and outside the official residence on the shaded side of Moon Pond Mountain, he saw Shang Yu.

Shang Yu looked at Tian Lin and smiled, saying, "Why does Brother Tian look so troubled? That doesn’t seem like the demeanor of Baihua Peak’s leading disciple."

Zhao Si, leading Tian Lin, was stunned and couldn’t help but sneak a peek at Tian Lin’s expression.

He couldn’t discern Tian Lin’s emotions from his expression, and throughout the idle chatter on the way, he felt that Tian Lin seemed to be in a good mood.

Therefore, Zhao Si didn’t understand why Shang Yu said Tian Lin had a worried look—Tian Lin always had a neutral expression. His face remained the same throughout the day; whence came this troubled expression?

"My position as the leading disciple was something I picked up easily, not earned through risking my life like you, Brother Shang;

yet now you have become the Deputy Hall Master of the Law Enforcement Hall, a position much higher than that of leading disciples of other peaks. Why do you also look unhappy?"

After Tian Lin asked, Zhao Si again cast a stealthy glance at Shang Yu.

He saw Shang Yu smiling all day long, looking genuinely merry; how could it be that in Tian Lin’s eyes, Shang Yu was also discontent?

As he sneaked a peek at Shang Yu, to his surprise, Shang Yu was also squinting back at him.

Zhao Si was startled, and hurriedly bowed to Tian Lin and Shang Yu, "If the two Immortal Masters have matters to discuss, this servant shall take his leave first."

Tian Lin and Shang Yu watched Zhao Si walk away, and when they saw no one around, Shang Yu sighed with hands behind his back:

"Yes, indeed, Brother, your position as leading disciple was relinquished by Elder Xiao, and my position as Deputy Hall Master was stuffed into my lap by the Sect Leader. But our aspirations do not lie here; how could we possibly be happy?"

As he spoke, he led Tian Lin into the garden.

This was Moon Pond Mountain, and Tian Lin was not afraid that Shang Yu would do anything to him.

He followed behind Shang Yu and spoke frankly, "Brother Shang is busy with many affairs and surely would not seek out his little brother for a casual chat without reason, right?"

Shang Yu stopped under a tree, turned his head to look at Tian Lin and said:

"I heard from the Second Steward that you had been to Elder Liu’s Daoist Temple on the night of his departure. Does that mean you had seen Elder Liu before he left?"

"That’s correct. At that time, I sensed something amiss in the atmosphere of the sect and was afraid that a change in the Yao Yue Sect might affect me, so I wanted to clarify my master’s attitude towards the Blood Sect Devotees—

However, I didn’t anticipate that before I could decide whether to leave the Yao Yue Sect, my master would be the one to leave first."
