Yang Shu Mei Ying

Chapter 16 Part 1

Jun Shuying took a few days to recuperate his martial arts in the pool of water, but the effect wasn't big. His internal injuries were not a problem, but he could not fully recover his internal force. Sometimes, it would even reduce. He needed to deal with the Sect's matters. And everything in this cave reminded him of the absurd things that had happened here.

After Jun Shuying left the cave, he wanted to destroy this place filled with bad memories. But he considered that he may use this cave again in the future. After all, the pool water was a rare precious thing. He had Gao Fang send people to block the cave. Out of sight, out of mind. He would consider it as destroyed and nonexistent. Although Gao Fang was puzzled, he still followed orders and blocked the cave.

Jun Shuying returned to the Sect during the most chaotic time in Tianyi Sect. Some sect members were already suspicious about his disappearance for so many days. There were all sorts of rumors. The most popular was that he was seriously injured by Qing Lang and was about to die. The people with traitorous hears would not miss this opportunity. They couldn't want to expose themselves.

Jun Shuying returned to the Sect and immediately cleared the enemies with lightning speed. He tortured several branch leaders in public to death. The bloody scene made people shudder. For a time, everyone in the Sect was more submissive to Jun Shuying and followed his every order.

The sun was shining brightly at noon. The side hall was wide and bright. The trees outside the window were blowing and wafted an osmanthus fragrance. Such a peaceful and leisure atmosphere reminded the people that Canglang Mountain had such a wonderful springtime.

"Sect Master, these are the accounts of each branch in the recent months. Take a look. There is a lot more money coming in. After killing a few restless branch leaders a few days ago, the rest are a lot more honest." Gao Fang placed a ledger in front of Jun Shuying.

Jun Shuying picked it up and randomly turned a few pages. He pushed it away. "I'm assured with you doing these things. You don't have to show me anymore." He rubbed his forehead with a lazy expression.

Gao Fang's hand pressed against the wooden table and he frowned. "Although I'm very happy that you believe me and it makes me happy, this isn't like you."

"Oh?! Then what is like me?" The rebellion in Tianyi Sect was pacified. Jun Shuying seemed to be in a good mood and faintly smiled as he asked.

"Sect Master is suspicious. You wouldn't let anyone else do anything. You have to do it yourself to be at ease. These few days...... You seem to be a lot lazier."

Jun Shuying's smile turned grave. His face changed and he coldly snorted. "Gao Fang, you're getting bolder."

Gao Fang held the ledger and backed away a few steps. He chuckled. "Because Sect Master didn't turn people into mummies at the drop of a hat. You're not so scary anymore." As he left, the jingling bells drifted away.

Jun Shuying's face sunk. His hands on the table clenched. One didn't know what he was thinking. After a moment, he stood up and opened a secret door on the wall. He disappeared behind the secret door. The door shut and left behind a silent room.

The fifteenth day of every month was the day that every branch leader would come pay respects to the Sect Master. This rule was set from the first day of the creation of Tianyi Sect. Even during this internal unrest, this rule had not been abandoned. At this moment, every branch leader was sitting upright and majestically. They gave reports one by one. Jun Shuying sat on a couch and listened. He faintly praised or darkly reprimanded before warmly appeasing.

The branch leaders were used to being dominating outside, but they were like mice in a cat's mouth here. They were jittery. After each report, each branch leader had a forehead full of cold sweat, as if they had just experienced a war.
