Chapter 224: Its Nothing, No Way, I Have A Cold?

Chapter 224: It's Nothing, No Way, I Have A Cold?

Although Chu Kuangren's actions seemed very outrageous at this moment, every decision he made was with a suitable amount of restraint except for that angered rampage at the Murong clan.

Looking at Chu Kuangren, Second Forefather felt a sense of relief.

From his perspective, Chu Kuangren was a very exceptional person.

He may be a little young, but his judgment was already on par with all of the Sect Leaders before him. It could also be due to his remarkable strength which made his style of leadership stand out when compared to the other Sect Leaders. He would do things on quite a grand scale and still produce an excellent effect in the end.

"My Black Heaven Sect shall prosper without fail!"

The Black Heaven Second Forefather muttered as he stared at Chu Kuangren's back.

After returning to the Illusive Mirage, Chu Kuangren gave Murong Xuan the Soul-Healing Pill.

Murong Xuan was excited as he held the medicinal pill in his hand. He looked at Chu Kuangren with a grateful expression and was prepared to kneel.

However, Chu Kuangren immediately supported him instead.

"What are you trying to do?"

"Sect Leader, not only did you protect my mother's remains from being humiliated by others, but you've refined a Sage-grade pill for me as well. You've shown me such kindness and care, I don't even know how to repay and thank you for all of this," Murong Xuan replied as his eyes turned red.

"You used to address me as your Elder Senior Brother, and now you call me Sect Leader. No matter my status or position, shouldn't this be something that I'm supposed to do anyway as your senior? If you're grateful for all I've done for you, then work hard and contribute more to the Black Heaven Sect in the future."

Chu Kuangren said as he patted Murong Xuan's back.

"This life I have will belong to the Black Heaven Sect forever."

"Alright, just focus on healing your injuries for now."

Murong Xuan then took the Sage-grade pill to recover from his wounds.

On the same night.

A surge of sword qi suddenly shot into the sky from the Illusive Mirage.

Chu Kuangren, who was resting that time, looked at the source of that sword qi with a slight grin. "It seems that the medicinal pill's effects are not bad. Not only did it completely restore Murong Xuan's spiritual mound, but it has strengthened his spiritual energy as well."

In some sense, Murong Xuan's injury was a blessing in disguise.

When Fairfrost Sage and Gujiang both came out from one of the pavilion halls and saw the sword qi's source, both of them looked at each other and could not help but marveled in surprise.

"I can't believe the damaged spiritual mound has been restored. This marks an end to one of the most difficult age-old problems in the alchemy world."

"Chu Kuangren's abilities are truly extraordinary."

Both of them were amazed.

They now had even more respect for Chu Kuangren's alchemy skills.

Shortly after.

Chu Kuangren and the others returned to the Black Heaven Sect.

Elder Ruyan and the other elders first thought that they were under attack by some enemy when they saw the gigantic Illusive Mirage. They hurriedly alerted everyone and almost activated the Great Sect Protection Formation, causing a big ruckus everywhere.

Only when they saw Chu Kuangren and a few other people coming down from the Illusive Mirage did they put their guard down and welcomed his group.

Meanwhile, in the direction of the Towering Heaven Palace, a fiery blazing light suddenly rose into the sky. It was the Godly Phoenix, Lil Red that had sensed Chu Kuangren's return and rushed out to greet him.

"Where have you gone, Brother? Why did you leave me here alone?" The Godly Phoenix came before Chu Kuangren and snuggled its head with his body to express how much it missed him.

Chu Kuangren caressed her neck and comforted her.

"Sect Leader, what... What the hell is this?"

Elder Ruyan and the others could not help but gulp when they saw the towering buildings on the Illusive Mirage as they went forward to Chu Kuangren to greet him.

This Illusive Mirage was just too astonishing.

"It's just a Fairy boat. Not like you haven't seen one before."

Chu Kuangren simply replied.

Elder Ruyan and the others could not help but look at each other as they took a look at the Illusive Mirage which was more than thirty miles long.

'Can you even call this thing a boat?'

"Alright, so... Sect Leader, where should we land or park this thing then?" Elder Ruyan asked, implying that such a valuable item must be properly kept and guarded.

Matters regarding where the Illusive Mirage would be parked, the type of people assigned to keep watch of it, the number of cultivators required to guard it, were all things that needed to be considered.

"It's alright, you can just leave it in my possession."

Chu Kuangren pointed to the Yin and Yang ring on his finger. With a command from his mind, the huge Illusive Mirage shrunk rapidly and turned into a spot of light which was kept in Chu Kuangren's Yin and Yang ring.

That sight shocked everyone once again.

For a normal Yin and Yang ring, having dozens or hundreds of square meters was considered quite good. However, seeing that Chu Kuangren was casually keeping the gigantic thirty miles long Illusive Mirage into his Yin and Yang ring, how big could the space inside it possibly be!

Everyone had no idea.

After all, Chu Kuangren's Yin and Yang ring was a Legendary grade item. It was one grade above the Illusive Mirage and possessed an incredibly vast interior space.

Not to mention a single Illusive Mirage, but it could even hold up to tens or hundreds of Illusive Mirages without trouble.

If not for the fact that living beings could not be stored within it, Chu Kuangren would have stored everything and everyone in the Black Heaven Sect within it and brought them along with him.

"Ah... It's nothing, it's just a piece of cake."

Elder Ruyan took a deep breath and calmed herself.

'Isn't this just but a mere Fairy boat that was the size of a whole city?'

'Isn't this just but a Yin and Yang Ring that can store a Fairy boat that was the size of a city?'

'So what?'

'Is it more shocking than Chu Kuangren creating twelve Sage Techniques out of the blue?'

"Is it more stunning than Chu Kuangren killing two Sages?"

"Oh, by the way, Elder Ruyan, this person here is Fairfrost Sage, who shall be a part of our Black Heaven Sect from now on. She likes to be clean, so I hope you can find a place that's neat and tidy for her to live in."

Chu Kuangren then introduced Fairfrost Sage to everyone.

'What?'

Everyone was once again dumbfounded.

'There's a Sage who wants to join the Black Heaven Sect?'

"This is great news."

"Haha, I recall that Master Gu joined the Black Heaven Sect because of our Sect Leader. Now that we have another Sage in our ranks, this is splendid news indeed."

Several elders were so excited that they could not contain their delight.

"It's nothing. It's really nothing..."

Elder Ruyan continued to tell herself that in her heart.

After that, she left with Fairfrost Sage.

"Sect Leader, I want to find a proper and suitable place for my mother to rest in peace. I shall dismiss myself first," Murong Xuan said.

"Alright, go ahead."

Then, Chu Kuangren discussed with a few elders about the recent changes and happenings in the Azure Dragon Domain.

From that discussion, he realized that a few changes had indeed happened.

For example, after news that Chu Kuangren had killed both of the Murong clan's Sage spread to the Azure Dragon Domain, each of the sage orthodoxies was utterly stunned.

Ever since then, almost no one dared to go against the Black Heaven Sect.

"Now that the Black Heaven Sect has gained an unprecedented level of fame, the disciples have started spewing nonsense that we're going to conquer the whole Azure Dragon Domain."

"Haha, these immature brats still do not know any better it seems."

"Then again, with Black Heaven Sect's current fame, it's not impossible to expand our territory if we wish to do so. Wait, we certainly can if we wanted to."

Having listened to the opinions of the elders, Chu Kuangren fell into deep thought. He then told everyone, "My fellow elders, I wonder if anyone has heard of the phrase, 'those whom God wishes to destroy, he first makes mad'?"

Everyone looked at each other and shook their heads blankly.

"Black Heaven Sect may be very famous now, but we should be on the highest alert especially at this moment. If we were to make a decision that's too aggressive or over the top, it'll cause a backlash from the other sage orthodoxies instead."

Chu Kuangren said.

At that, the elders all started to ponder.

"Besides, we'll need to strictly enforce the discipline of the inner disciples too. What nonsense is that about conquering the whole Azure Dragon Domain? Are they trying to create more trouble for me? I already have a lot of headaches from managing the Black Heaven Sect, let alone the whole Azure Dragon Domain. Anyone can feel free to do it if they want to."

"Let them revise and memorize the precepts of our sect once more and conduct monthly checks to test them. Enforcer Elder, I shall leave this task to you."

"This not only applies to them but our satellite states and vassal forces as well. Send someone to warn them not to take advantage of the Black Heaven Sect's fame now. If they were to disobey our warning, then we shall execute one as a warning to others."

Chu Kuangren continued to discuss with the elders for several more hours.

That was the first time he had taken part in the discussion about the sect's internal affairs. His leadership, wit, and opinions had impressed and relieved some of the elders there as well.

"He's far better than that sluggish Sect Leader Xuan Qi we had."

One of the elders lamented.

Within the depths of the Black Heaven Sect and inside one of the cottages, Honorable Xuan Qi suddenly sneezed. He then uttered confusingly, "No way, can a Boundary Sage catch a cold?"
