Chapter 159 CHAPTER 158: The Devil Cultivator Joey!
At that time, before she completed her words, the door suddenly opened and Jiu You entered the room. Then she spoke, "Sister Hai Yun, I am back. How is big brother Joey?"
Hai Yun, the Floral lady kept glaring at Joey.
"Tch tch, why is she here right now?" Joey murmured with disappointment.
"Shameless! I am leaving." Hai Yun said. Then, she quickly ran out of the room.
"Big Brother Joey, you are finally awake." Jiu You said happily. Then, she quickly ran toward him and hugged him tightly.
"You'er, I am fine now. You have finally formed your human form. How do feel now?" Joey lightly taped on her back and said.
"Big brother Joey, this body is great. Now, I can finally walk easily like you humans. Heeheehee, it is more convenient than my giant nine-headed snake form." Jiu You replied cheekily.
"Alright, you can let me go now," Joey said.
Then she released her hands.
At that time, a guard of the Black Tiger Tribe came before the door and spoke, "Joey, You are summoned by the elders' councils of the Black Tiger tribe. Please, follow me."
"That is fast. I have just woken up." Joey murmured. Then, he replied, "Alright, I will come with you." and he thought, "Hmm! Let's see what they want to say to me."
At that time, Jiu You suddenly transformed into a small snake and entered inside his robe.
"Alright, I am ready. Let's go." Joey said.
Then they both left the room for the hall of elders' councils.
---------------------------------------------------
Twelve people were currently inside the hall of elders' councils. Du Shan was among them sitting on the seat especially for the guest. Two ladies and 8 men sat on the elders' chairs. Lastly, a stunning lady sat on the most luxurious chair of the room. She had a beautiful tattoo of a black tiger with white stripes on it. She was the Grand Elder of the Black Tiger tribe. Even though she had the looks of the young lady, she was the oldest member of the tribe.
They were currently discussing the matters of Joey.
"Chieftain Du Shan of the Yaksha spirit tribe. Can you tell us a bit about that unconscious boy that my tribe girl Hu Biyu brought yesterday?" The Grand Elder asked. She was leaning on her luxurious chair lazily.
"Grand Elder Hu Jing, it is my honor meeting you here today. " Du Shan cupped his hands and greeted her politely like a junior meeting his senior. (Hu=tiger, Jing=peaceful or tranquil)
" You must be talking about my young master, Joey. " He replied.
"Du Shan, from what I remember you and your tribesmen were the humble servants of the Theravada Buddhist Monastery. What is going on? How is this boy with unknown origin suddenly becoming your master?" Grand Elder Hu Jing asked with confusion.
"Oh about that, there has been a conflict between my Yaksha Tribe and the Theravada Buddhist Monastery." Du Shan replied. Then, he started telling them the whole story of the conflict between the Yaksha Tribe and the Theravada Buddhist Monastery. Also, about their exiled to a remote village while sealing all of their memories and cultivation bases. Then, he told them about meeting Joey and his friends in their village all of a sudden after a decade of living as a mere commoner. And about how Joey unsealed all of their memories and cultivation bases.
"I understand. Then, you and your Yaksha tribe make a pledge to follow him after that." Grand Elder Hu Jing added.
Du Shan nodded his head.
Grand Elder Hu Jing looked around all the elders and said, "Everyone, what do you think? "
A petite-looking old man with white hair and a long white beard stood up and said, "Grand Elder Hu Jing, I think this boy's origin seems to be a bit mysterious. I have already bought all of his personal information from the Hundred Intelligence Pavillion paying a heavy sum. But, do you all want to know what I find out from that information. You can all check it out yourself ."
He took out ten pieces of paper from inside his space ring and passed them to the Grand Elder Hu Jing. Then she carefully started reading all of them and put them inside her space ring. She frowned slightly and quickly returned back to her normal expression again.
"Alright, I will tell you. There was absolutely no information about him before he suddenly appeared on Mount Chamfu. Also, he has become the public enemy number one of our Shén Shèng World. Especially the Theravada Buddhist Monastery and the Mudan sect have already joined hands together to search for him and his groups. Everyone has marked him as the evil cultivator who feeds on the life essence of the 12 young ladies of the Mudan Sect. He has even killed the Sangharaja of the Theravada Buddhist Monastery. My best suggestion is to make them leave immediately. Otherwise, our Black Tiger tribe will bore the hatred of all the cultivators." The petite-looking old man said. ( Shén Shèng means divine, hallow, holy or sacred)
A middle-aged-looking lady among them stood up and said, " I don't quite agree with you, Elder Hu Chao. Yong master Joey had saved my daughter Hu Biyu from being a disgrace. So, he is a benefactor of mine. Also, he had helped us protect the dignity of our Black Tiger from those evil monks that like to act all benevolence. " This lady looked a bit like Grand Elder Hu Jing.
"Oh, that is making me more suspicious. Why would a devil cultivator like him help our princess Xu Biyu? He must have some ulterior motives." Elder Hu Chao, the petite-looking old man made a wild guess.
"Hmph!" A middle-aged-looking lady snorted and said, "Elder Hu Chao, don't make any speculation without any facts. "
Then, she looked at Grand Elder Hu Jing and said, "Mother, I know the whereabouts of a white tiger."
"Hah! " Grand Elder Hu Jing stood up and exclaimed. Also, a big commotion started among the elders.
She waved her hand toward them and the room became silent again.
