"Oh, he's my friend, Su Yuan. He just happened to be here to join in the fun.”
Li Hongye quickly stood up and smiled.
"So you are a friend of the Head Deacon. However, for such a grand event to have a mortal present, it is somewhat disappointing. Can you ask your friend to leave?”
Seeing that Li Hongye was just an old Great Spirit Master on the verge of death, Xi Yuanjia didn't take it to heart.
Li Hongye was stunned.
According to the rules of the past years, mortals should not come to such an occasion. However, the sect did not specifically stop them. Basically, it could be considered as tacitly agreeing to let mortals come here to join in the fun.
However, it was also allowed for outer sect disciples to force mortals to leave. This was not the first time this had happened.
Some outer sect disciples simply couldn't stand the appearance of mortals in such an occasion. Usually, as long as they told the elders of the sect, mortals would be chased out.
Who would care about the feelings of a mortal?
If Su Yuan was kicked out, no one would say anything. At most, Li Hongye would be embarrassed.
Su Yuan was also stunned. Why was he sitting here so unsightly?
"Mister Su is just a mortal friend. Senior Brother Xi, why do you have to make things difficult for him?”Li Shilan was also stunned. She stood out with an unhappy expression.
If Su Yuan was her friend, she could just tolerate it, but Su Yuan was Li Hongye's grandfather's friend.
Bullying Su Yuan was bullying Li Hongye, which was equivalent to bullying Li Shilan.
"Junior sister, you're being too serious. I just don't want to see a mortal stay here. I think this small suggestion should be nothing if I report it to the elders of your sect.”Xi Yuanjia said with a smile.
"That's right. How can a mortal be involved in such an occasion? Let him go.”
"That's right. We just don't want to see mortals present. It's extremely disappointing. As guests, this request isn't too much, right?”
The few outer sect disciples beside him also echoed.
Indeed, it was only natural for cultivators to let mortals leave. Mortals were not qualified to come to such an occasion.
"What happened?" At this moment, a middle-aged man walked over and said.
"Acting Elder." Li Hongye bowed respectfully when he saw who it was.
A substitute elder was a Spirit King level master. In the sect, he was a substitute elder, and his status was second only to the elders. Naturally, he had a lot of power.
"Acting elder, on behalf of Towering Palace, I suggest that your esteemed sect chase the mortals out. It's really not suitable for mortals to be here, and it'll spoil the mood." Xi Yuanjia wasn't afraid at all when he saw the person who had come and suggested straightforwardly.
Upon hearing this, Li Wenmao frowned slightly. He looked at Su Yuan and then at Li Hongye, and immediately understood the general situation.
It wasn't the first time cultivators had asked mortals to leave. Normally, it was fine if they didn't say anything, but if a cultivator asked, it wasn't too much to chase them out.
Indeed, in the eyes of cultivators, letting mortals go out was a very common thing, and it was even an unimportant matter.
It was like chasing away a fly. There was nothing wrong with it.
"Is he your friend?" Li Wenmao asked Li Hongye.
" Yes," Li Hongye replied honestly.
"Since the guests have requested it, let your friend out.”Li Wenmao didn't ask further and ordered directly.
"But…"
"What's wrong? Do you still want to defy orders?"
Li Wenmao looked displeased. As a substitute elder, he had great authority. This was just a trivial matter, a matter of a word.
"Yes, sir." Li Hongye struggled internally. Feeling the mocking gazes of the outer sect disciples, his eyes were filled with bitterness.
Although he had lost face, it was nothing. He would just endure it.
"Why can't mortals stay here?”At this moment, a calm voice rang out, causing everyone present to be stunned. They all looked at the young man who spoke.
"Why? Just because you are a mortal and this is a gathering place for cultivators, you have no right to be here.”Li Wenmao looked at Su Yuan and sneered.
A mere mortal actually dared to talk back. He really didn't know what was good for him. It was even a little ridiculous.
"There are still quite a few mortals ahead. Why can they stay here, but why can't I? Could it be that the Incineration Moon Sect also had to look at other people's faces?" Su Yuan laughed and his voice became louder.
As soon as he said this, the surrounding cultivators looked over.
Li Wenmao's expression also changed and he became somewhat furious. His gaze towards Su Yuan was faintly filled with killing intent.
If a cultivator wanted to kill a mortal, it would be as easy as crushing an ant. This mortal actually dared to challenge the authority of the Incineration Moon Sect. This was absolutely unforgivable.
"This is the Incineration Moon Sect, not a place you should stay. Please mind your words and actions and leave this place immediately.”Li Wenmao said coldly.
"Please don't be angry, Acting Elder. This disciple will take him away from here.”Li Hongye was also shocked. Where did a mortal like Su Yuan get such confidence from?
Not to mention him, even Li Hongye didn't dare to talk back to him. Otherwise, his future days wouldn't be easy.
Now that Su Yuan was talking back, he had already offended the acting elder. If he really got angry and casually killed Su Yuan, Li Hongye might not be able to protect Su Yuan.
Seeing Li Hongye's troubled expression, Su Yuan didn't mind. He didn't want to stay in such a place. He didn't want to bother about it. He didn't like crowds to begin with.
Logically speaking, these people did not even have the right to speak in front of him. He was also an old monster who had lived for more than 10,000 years. If he really cared about it, he would lose his status.
"Hmm?" Just as Su Yuan was about to leave, a flash of light suddenly appeared.
Su Yuan paused and took out a voice transmission talisman from his pocket. A spirit rune suddenly appeared in front of his eyes.
"Master, are you in the Incineration Moon Sect? Disciple is here to find you."
Seeing this, Su Yuan raised his eyebrows and looked at Li Hongye." This is one of my disciples. He's here too. I won't reply. Help me reply."”
"Alright." Li Hongye was stunned. He had naturally seen the spirit rune as well, and he found it strange that a mortal like Su Yuan had a disciple.
He was probably a mortal disciple.
"I'm sorry, I'll wait for my disciple.”Su Yuan turned his head and smiled at everyone.
"Hehe, a mortal disciple still putting on such airs. I really gave you face.”
"That's right. When your disciple comes, get lost together. This is not a place for you mortals.”
"You're just a mortal. I'm already giving you face by talking to you nicely.”
Hearing the mocking words of the crowd, Su Yuan calmly sat down and casually ate the spirit fruit as if it had nothing to do with him.
"The genius disciple of the Ten Thousand Flower Sect, Elder Bai Yixiao, has arrived.”
A short while later, a shout came from afar, causing the entire place to boil. Soon, everyone's gaze turned over.
