Shan Jing had been in charge of Xian Tian Palace for almost two hundred years, and she had accumulated a lot of power.
Even though he still looked calm, his imposing manner had already caused Modest Wind Elder Yue Zhengbo and Kanshui Elder Shentu Hou to almost not dare to look him in the eye.
However, Gantian Mountain Elder You Hao was still calm.
” I don’t deserve to be called capable. I only hope that I can protect the talented young people so that they won’t die prematurely and be harmed by people who only care about their own interests.
The Lihuo Elder Shan Song had a mocking expression on his face. He wanted to speak, but considering the fact that the Palace Lord was seated in the center, he eventually kept his mouth shut.
“Senior Brother You is right. Aren’t we old people only thinking about the continuation of our palace’s inheritance?” The Palace Master’s tone was calm. However, I wonder if Li Huo’s grandson, Zhong Jie, is considered a talented young man?”
“Of course it counts. I’m not afraid, ” Gantian Elder You Hao said calmly, Among the rising talents of the past few decades, Shan Zhongjie can be ranked in the top three. ‘
He had a high evaluation of Shan Zhongjie.
However, when Elder Li Huo and Elder Zhenlei heard this, their hearts skipped a beat. They felt that something was wrong.
To be fair, after the death of Yue Zhengbo’s last disciple, Zhang Mao, Shan Zhongjie was the most outstanding person in Xian Tian Palace.
He wasn’t very old, but he had already reached the 16th level. His potential was obviously not at the bottom yet.
He was a prominent figure in Xian Tian Palace who could compete with the other top disciples of the other sacred grounds.
Although he was not as famous as the Ancient Gods Coach Bu Yi, Cheng
Yingtian of Southern Chu. Shen Tianzhao of the Heavenly River. and the other heroes of the mortal world, the heroes of the mountains were still very famous in the mortal world.
This was under the circumstances where he kept a low profile like the Xian Tian Palace, but he was still famous in the world.
In Xian Tian Palace, only Shentu Jingran and a few others could be compared to him, but they were clearly inferior.
Among the younger generation of Xian Tian Palace, Shan Zhongjie was the undisputed number one.
Even before Zhang Mao died, Shan Zhongjie was only slightly inferior to him.
Gantian Elder You Hao’s ” top three ” evaluation seemed to be encouraging, but it was actually a bit belittling.
Shan Zhongjie’s grandfather, Elder Li Huo Shan Song’s expression darkened. However, he did not get angry. Instead, he revealed a suspicious expression.
” Who are the top three in Senior Brother You’s heart? ” The Palace Master asked calmly.
“Mountain hero can sit three and look two.” Gantian Elder You Hao said calmly, ” Although Zhang Mao is extremely talented, he died early. Although he has let Junior Brother Le down, it is hard to say whether Zhang Mao can still secure the second place. As for the first place…”
“It’s undoubtedly Wang Zhang,” he said indifferently.
Li Huo Elder Shan Song’s pupils contracted like a sharp needle as he stared at the young man behind Gantian Elder You Hao.
There were a few disciples standing behind You Hao. One of them was called Wang Zhang, and Shan Song recognized him.
However, the other party had never been outstanding. Not to mention Shan Zhongjie, he was far inferior to Shentu Jingran and the others.
But at this moment, this ordinary-looking Wang Zhang, under the gaze of Elder Li Huo Shan Song, was calm and collected, causing Shan Song to instantly be on guard.
He could tell that the other party didn’t have the confidence to confront him because of Gantian Elder You Hao.
Wang Zhang’s confidence was bursting from within, and it was based on his absolute confidence in his own strength.
Old Ghost You hid such a card?
Behind Elder Li Huo Shan Song, a young man was also staring at Wang Zhang, who was seated in the south.
He was Shan Song’s grandson, Shan Zhongjie.
Wang Zhang calmly looked over and met his gaze. He nodded slightly and then retracted his gaze.
Shan Zhongjie wanted to compete with the other party.
However, he kept calm and waited for the Palace Master’s decision.
The Palace Master glanced at Wang Zhang indifferently, not having any intention of asking his grandnephew to compete with him.
“I’ve always trusted Senior Brother You’s judgment.”
“Since Senior Brother You said that Wang Zhang has the same talent as Zhang Mao and Zhongjie, then he’s probably not bad.”
However, why hide such a beautiful jade?
Senior Brother You’s ability to teach disciples was naturally good, but it was inevitably inconvenient to act in secret and use elixirs, treasures, and books. If there were any shortcomings, wouldn’t it delay Wang Zhang’s cultivation?
For disciples with potential, BenGong has never been stingy with investment.
Since Wang Zhang is talented, then from now on, he will be used the same as
ZhongJie.”
She stood in the middle and looked down at him. She said indifferently, “Regardless of bloodline, only those who are capable can take over. I agree with this point.”
“It’s indeed a pity that a beautiful jade is covered in dust, but it’s better than being broken by someone.” Gantian Elder You Hao said, ” It’s a bit lacking in expenditure but it can still be overcome. It’s better than being attacked from behind and losing your life. ‘
“So, what do you think, Senior Brother You?” The Palace Master asked calmly.
“Zhang Mao’s lesson is still fresh in my mind.” Gantian Elder You Hao said, We have to investigate this matter thoroughly. Once we get to the bottom of it, we will return the truth to Zhang Mao and let the thousands of disciples in the palace feel at ease. ‘
The black-robed white-haired old man stood with his hands behind his back. He didn’t look at the Lihuo Elder Shan Song, but at the Palace Lord Shan Jing.
“No matter who it is, killing a disciple of the palace for their own selfish motives should be investigated and cannot be tolerated.”
The Palace Master smiled.
” In the end, it turns out that someone is using young disciples as chess pieces. They say it in a dignified manner, but in reality, they only want my position.
Her younger brother, Li Huo Elder Shan Song, finally spoke again. He sneered,” Zhang Mao’s early death was also a great pity for me, but I never thought too much about it. Now that I think about it, I suddenly realize that he might have lost his life because he wanted to be someone’s chess piece to plot against his superiors. It’s really a pity for his talent.
Elder Modest Wind Yue Zhengbo’s face was filled with grief and indignation.”Shan Song, the truth is there. How can you quibble?”
“You Hao can forge as much evidence as he wants.” Elder Li Huo Shan Song laughed coldly.
Gantian Mountain Elder You Hao’s expression remained calm.
He didn’t look at the Lifire Elder Shan Song, he only stared at the Lifire Empyrean and shook his head,”Junior Sister Shan, you missed the chance to abandon the car to save the commander.”
The old man changed the way he addressed her and no longer addressed her as Palace Master. The Fuxi Palace fell silent.
‘ I’ve always been unwilling to damage the harmony in the palace and cause internal strife, ” the Palace Master said indifferently. ” But now it seems that Senior Brother You was the one who couldn’t hold it in and wanted to rebel. ‘ She finally stood up from the futon.
“In that case, I can only bring order out of chaos and return the palace to its former glory.”
Gantian Mountain Elder You Hao stood quietly on the spot. Although his seat was lower than the central main seat, his body seemed to be extremely tall. He didn’t look up to the palace lord at all.
” I do want to rebel against you. Only by rebelling against you can the Xian Tian Palace be restored to its rightful position.
Behind the two of them, the same Innate Eight Trigrams appeared. They were at loggerheads, not giving in to each other.
You Hao said, ” Ever since you became the Palace Master, you have been abusing your power and favoritism. You have done things that are against the law and you have not even been able to maintain the most basic fairness. You have allowed your Shan Family to plunder the public property of the palace, suppress other disciples, and even harm talented young disciples. You have tried to turn Xian Tian Palace into the territory of the Shan Family. Do you think that only a few of us want to rebel against you? You must know that a just cause enjoys abundant support, while an unjust cause has little support.”
“A just cause has many helpers?” The Palace Master said indifferently. Do you have a lot of people supporting you? Gao Xinping, Fang Ming, Lu Jian, Li Chuan, and Zhang Heting?”
The five names were the five outer sect elders who had secretly returned to Xian Tian Palace to support Gantian Elder You Hao.
‘ Hiding and sneaking back, not even being able to do it openly. Is this what you mean by ‘a just cause has abundant support The palace lord asked.
On the other side, in the east seat, Elder Li Huo Shan Song sneered as he took out a small bell and shook it.”Senior Brother You, this is what it means to have a just cause.”
The bell rang, and three groups of people entered the Fu Xi Palace.
The person in the lead looked somewhat similar to Shan Song and Shan
Zhongjie. He was Shan Song’s son and Shan Zhongjie’s father, Shan Jifeng. Like Lu Jian and the others, he was the guardian elder of one of the eight outer sanctum factions.
Other than Lu Jian and the other three, the other three outer sect elders were all present.
The people following behind the three from Shanji Peak were their most capable managers and palace disciples.
“Senior Brother You’s martial arts are extraordinary, Jifeng and the others are naturally not a match for him.” The Palace Master said indifferently, ” But after meeting them, I believe Senior Brother You should understand what it means to have a just cause and have many helpers. Since you have attained the Dao, you can do it openly. There is no need to secretly play tricks. ‘
As they spoke, more people could be seen walking into the hall. They lowered their heads and followed behind Shan Jifeng and the others.
Modest Wind Elder Yue Zhengbo and Kanshui Elder Shentu Hou could vaguely recognize that some of these people were the subordinates of Lu Jian, Gao Xinping, and the other five outer sect guardian elders. They had clearly sided with the palace lord.
The black-robed Gantian Elder You Hao looked calm.
He looked at the empty northwest seats.”Looks like Junior Sister Xue didn’t attend the meeting. She went to look for Li Chuan, Lu Jian, and the others.”
Elder Xue Hongxun of Mount Gen in the northwest was a trusted aide of the palace lord. He had been in seclusion for a few days and had yet to come out, so he was unable to attend today’s meeting.
However, it seemed like it was a different matter now.
“In order to preserve the vitality of the palace, I have no intention of bloodshed. I won’t take their lives.” The Palace Master said, ” For today’s chaos, only the chief culprit will be killed. As long as the rest repent in time, they can all be spared.
As she spoke, her dignified gaze swept across Modest Wind Elder Yue Zhengbo and Kanshui Elder Shentu Hou.
“You two should make your decision early, or else don’t blame me for disregarding the feelings of fellow disciples.” Elder Shan Song chuckled.
Elder Modest Wind Yue Zhengbo suddenly smiled.”Shan Song, you and I no longer share the same sect. However, Brother Priest still has some sense of justice in his heart.”
Shan Song’s expression did not change, but his heart sank.
Elder Zhenlei, Mu Chao, held the broken eight trigrams disk in his hand and sat silently on the northeast seat. He had not spoken for a long time.
“Brother Priest.” Li Huo Elder Shan Song called out.
Elder Zhenlei remained silent.
Just as You Hao and the others had said, the Shan Family had become more and more outrageous in the Xian Tian Palace.
However, Mu Chao respected the authority of the Palace Master, so he kept trying to persuade him.
But with Zhang Mao’s death, Shan clan’s ambition was revealed, it had stepped on his bottom line.
Deep in his heart, he believed that the evidence in front of him was not fake and that Shan Song could do such a thing. However, he was not sure if the palace master, Shan Jing, had already known and acquiesced, or if she had just found out and was protecting the Shan family.
Gantian Elder You Hao had always been on bad terms with the Palace Master and Zhenlei Elder Mu Chao had also seen it. Now that he had revealed his true intentions, only You Hao himself knew how much he wanted to do.
“Brother Priest is not feeling well, you can go down and rest.” On the central main seat, the Palace Master said indifferently, “”Some rebels can be broken with a snap of the finger..”
