Chapter 1343: Chapter 841: Compensation (Part 2)
"Well, that’s a good thing, isn’t it? Zhenzhen’s cultivation in Extreme Emotion Sword Dao and Sadness Sword Dao must have greatly advanced this time?"
With the support of the Shocking Sword, the news became increasingly explosive, its heat rising like wildfire, spreading further with the Instant Sword Net.
This was one of the important reasons why Xie Lanyin couldn’t suppress the incident’s heat.
But Xie Lanyin no longer had the time to focus on these matters; she looked towards the site of descent, stopping President Xiao Yunhe of the Committee from engaging in fierce combat with Bu Yingshu.
Xiao Yunhe privately messaged, "You injured Zhang Yu too severely this time; his spirit root spilled out, reportedly completely destroyed beyond recovery."
Xie Lanyin: "I didn’t hurt him!"
President: "Didn’t hurt him? Are you implying you were counterattacked by a Divinity Transformation?"
Xie Lanyin: "How could I possibly lose to Divinity Transformation?"
President: "So you’re admitting you injured him?"
Xie Lanyin: "I..."
Xiao Yunhe didn’t give Xie Lanyin a chance to argue, directly privately messaged, "Go apologize to Zhang Yu and compensate him."
"Compensating is the greatest sincerity and the quickest way to resolve the matter."
Reluctantly, Xie Lanyin looked at Xiao Yunhe, seeming to say, me? A Level 6 Sect Staff and Void Refining Cultivator, to apologize to a Divinity Transformation Cultivator from the Lower Realm, a Level 4 Sect Staff? Apologizing is one thing, but compensating?
Xiao Yunhe continued privately messaging, calmly saying, "Vice President Xie, you should understand that the most important thing for the Committee is balance. If everyone acts recklessly, fighting and injuring without any consequence. Then why have sect laws? Why have me as the President?"
"When I was young, like you, I relied on power and cultivation, often injuring others without thought. At that time, I thought, these people, lower in realm, weaker in strength, less powerful, with fewer assets, I could fight as I pleased, why should I defer to them? Why should I compensate?"
"Later, I understood, this is called rules, this is called balance. Maintaining rules and balance lets those below listen to us, willingly build the sect, serving Kunxu."
"Often, not acting is more beneficial than acting."
As he spoke, Xiao Yunhe’s gaze shifted slightly, before him, a long string of messages appeared on the Spirit Realm interface.
He sent the content to Xie Lanyin, urging various sect enterprises to swiftly repair the Spirit Realm.
Xie Lanyin immediately said, "This has nothing to do with me! Zhang Yu, holding the Immortal Inheritance, surely caused this trouble..."
Xiao Yunhe said, "Xie Lanyin, you’ve reached this position, do you really think... who caused it is important?"
"I’ve already questioned True God about the Mist Realm Spirit Realm’s condition; they have no solution."
"Now, only Zhang Yu can swiftly repair it, but he is seriously injured."
"This hole you created, clean it up yourself. Compensate and treat, let him recover the Spirit Realm quickly."
Though their private conversation proceeded at lightning speed, exchanging massive amounts of data instantly.
From Bu Yingshu’s perspective, it took too long.
"Xiao Yunhe! Are you going to protect her?!"
Xie Lanyin felt Bu Yingshu’s tiger-eyed gaze and the silent pressure from Xiao Yunhe, her mind frantically thinking of a strategy.
At this moment, another message appeared before her.
Seeing the name and information, Xie Lanyin was shaken, for it was a Soul Cultivator Child under Bai Gusheng, named Kurong Child.
Although he had no Sect Affairs Officer status, most times he represented Bai Gusheng’s will, and his Ascension Stage cultivation commanded respect in the Spirit Realm.
Xie Lanyin quickly replied: "I don’t know what’s the matter, why would you have time to seek me out."
Kurong Child’s projection appeared before Xie Lanyin, speaking in a way only she could see and hear, "It’s necessary to find you, you’re the key figure now, complaints against you have sparked before Heavenly Monarch’s presence."
"Moreover, Ten Thousand Laws Immortal Clan specifically sent a protest letter, luckily suppressed by Heavenly Monarch."
At this, Kurong Child paused, then sternly said, "Xie Lanyin, Heavenly Monarch tasked you with revitalizing the development area, promoting industry growth, these are the top priorities, who allowed you to halt the Spirit Realm?"
Xie Lanyin hastily explained: "I didn’t destroy the Spirit Realm."
Kurong Child coldly understood: "Does telling me this matter? Xie Lanyin, did you use your brain entirely for asset operation, leaving none for the development area here?"
"Heavenly Monarch wanted you to prevent Ten Thousand Laws from intervening, not to kill Zhang Yu."
"Zhang Yu, whether injured or dead, whether Immortal Inheritance affected the maze’s state or attracted stronger Ten Thousand Laws sect members, will only complicate things further, such a simple truth, do you not understand?"
Xie Lanyin had never felt so wronged as at this moment.
She could only explain: "I realized Zhang Yu could control Corpse Items, trying to stop him from mastering Void Refining Corpse Items, to gradually erode power and keep Ten Thousand Laws from interfering in the development area’s industry..."
"Enough." Kurong Child waved a hand, saying: "Now, let’s not talk about irrelevant things. Apologize and admit your mistake, or visit and compensate, immediately have Zhang Yu repair the Spirit Realm."
"If you lack money, I can help you."
Looking at the loan link sent by the opposite party, Xie Lanyin felt unwillingness.
Meanwhile, Kurong Child continued saying, "Today’s events are all your own decisions, unrelated to Heavenly Monarch, clean up your own mess, or suffer the consequences."
