Now he is no longer as weak as before. When faced with things, he can only focus on self-preservation and do whatever it takes to be safe. For him, even if he goes to the frontline battlefield, he can still deal with it calmly and get a lot of credit easily. Why not?
This is what he thinks, but others don't think so. After all, no one has the ability to predict the future like him.
At this time, everyone was in a dilemma, whether they wanted to go or not, and whether they wanted to go or not had their own pros and cons. Danger also means opportunity, and you can get more credit, but wouldn't it be worth it if you lose your life?
But if you don't go, you are a little unwilling. Everyone is a monk in the Danjie stage, and some are even in the late Danjie stage. Naturally, they are very confident in their own strength. Even if they encounter danger, they should be able to run away when they are defeated. Lose.
After some intense thinking and weighing, someone was finally the first to respond and expressed his willingness to go, followed by the second, third, and more.
Seeing everyone's enthusiasm, the two Nascent Soul Stage Ancestors suddenly looked satisfied. After a brief discussion, they finally made a decision. Gu Xing from the Spirit Beast Mountain family and Huo Changgeng from the Main Sect family went together.
"Let's talk about another thing." Seeing that the matter was settled, Ancestor Chi Ling coughed lightly and continued,
"This is a happy event. After so many years, our sect has once again added a monk at the Dan-Jie stage. It is really gratifying."
Having said this, he turned around to look at Mo Juren in the distance, his eyes filled with brilliant words,
"I guess everyone is familiar with this kid. Even if they haven't met him, they know him more or less. He has broken through to the core formation stage at less than a hundred years old, and his future prospects are limitless."
More than limitless, this guy is simply a monster.
Of course, everyone present was no stranger to Mo Juren, and they had already heard about it. In the past, I only thought that he was just a genius at best, with a fast cultivation speed, and the seedling of a Fu Dao master.
Things are different now. The battle in the Divine Weapon Pavilion three days ago has been widely spread, which has completely subverted everyone's understanding. A monk who had just entered the pill-forming stage made Yang Wanshan, who was in the late stage of pill-forming, disgraced and lost all face. This kind of achievement is probably going to be unbelievable.
Like the ancestor of Chi Ling, the elders of the Spiritual Beast Mountain lineage in the alchemy stage are all very happy. This is a true rising star of the sect. As long as there are no accidents along the way, he will definitely be able to grow into a pillar of his lineage in the future.
However, the members of the main sect, including Master Xuanhuo, were full of complicated thoughts.
It's neither happy nor unhappy. After all, the sect is not monolithic and factions are everywhere.
The Yuling Sect belongs to a major demon sect, and it is quite common for fellow sects to fight for their own interests. It’s not just the demonic path. The world is as black as crows, so is the righteous path an exception? It's just that it's relatively subtle and not so explicit.
No matter if Mo Juren is excellent, they will not be able to take advantage of it, and may even become competitors.
The matter of Tianhua Building is not a secret, everyone has long been tacitly aware of it. The opponent had a brawl in the Shenbing Pavilion, apparently to take revenge on Yang Wanshan, but in fact he was not the only one who was embarrassed. Which member of the main sect had a bright face?
Of course, these are all inner thoughts, but they cannot be shown on the surface. I can only squeeze out a smile against my will and congratulate Mo Juren.
"Ancestor is so complimentary. This disciple is just lucky and managed to make a breakthrough. In every aspect, he is far behind my fellow senior brothers and sisters. I will have to rely more on your support in the future." Mo Juren stood up and smiled. Everyone bowed their hands, but the conversation suddenly changed:
"Of course, if any senior brother or sister has an opinion about Mo, they can take the initiative to put it forward. As long as it is right, it is acceptable. However, those who rely on their own strength to secretly plot against Mo are also the most I really want to think clearly, we are not soft persimmons and can be manipulated by others."
Everyone present knew what this meant. The elders of the Spirit Beast Mountain line seemed to be smiling, but the people opposite them suddenly became ugly.
Mo Juren's words were extremely rude. He would just point his nose at the other person and scold him for being shameless, but he would also do some sneaky things.
They are all monks in the alchemy stage, and they are also ancestor-level beings at home. They are respected by everyone on weekdays. How can they tolerate this? Even though someone sneered and asked:
"Junior Brother Mo, is there something in your words?"
"Who are you?" Mo Juren narrowed his eyes. He was worried that no one would fall into the trap, so he took the initiative to stick his head over.
"I am Huo Changgeng, from the main sect Wanling Valley, the family teacher Gu Shuangpu, and now I am the Supreme Elder..."
"Just say it yourself, there is no need to move your master out." Mo Juren looked at the person in front of him, it was the middle-aged man who looked at him with fear when he came in just now. He glanced at the other party coldly and said again,
"Mo once stayed in Qiling Mountain for a while, and had a close relationship with fellow Taoist Gu Yushan. I admired his "bold and sincere" character very much. But I didn't expect that he would have a junior brother like you. It’s so blind.”
"Mo, what do you mean?" Huo Changgeng's face suddenly darkened when he heard that the other party suddenly pointed the finger at him.
"What do you mean? Don't you know it in your heart? Don't tell me that Yang Wanshan's uncle and nephew set up a trap to frame Qi Yunxiao and intended to get involved in Tianhua Building. It has nothing to do with you."
"Stop spouting nonsense. What does this matter have to do with Huo?" Huo Changgeng obviously had no intention of admitting it. However, Yang Wanshan's expression changed slightly when he heard this.
"Yang Xiong has told me everything a long time ago. If it hadn't been for your many hints and temptations, his uncle and nephew might not have been so attracted to Tianhua Tower so quickly. Although they are hateful, they are just pawns to be used by you. . You are the real mastermind and the culprit, and you still have the nerve to question Mo. Don’t you feel guilty for being so shameless?"
"You...you..." Huo Changgeng never expected that Yang Xiong would reveal everything so quickly. Fortunately, he had discussed with Yang Wanshan two days ago to find a way to rescue him as soon as possible. To avoid torture.
If you hold on for a few more days, will the other party really want to kill you? Now it's okay, all the secrets have been told, which is equivalent to tearing away the last fig leaf and putting everything on the table.
"What are you doing? You have done something sneaky and you still don't admit it. You are quite thick-skinned. When I get to the main sect in the future, I would like to ask Brother Gu. How could a respected and honest elder like Elder Gu accept you like this?" A despicable person as a disciple?
Oh, by the way, you are just a registered disciple? Could it be that Lid behaves despicably on weekdays, so he is not recognized by his elders and has not become a regular employee until now? "
"You surnamed Mo..." Huo Changgeng was about to explode with anger. His expression was changing. The other party's words were too merciless, and every sentence was like a knife piercing his heart.
Speaking of which, being a named disciple has always been a worry for him, but unfortunately, no matter how hard he tried over the years, his master never mentioned that he would be accepted as a direct disciple.
The man surnamed Mo is really hateful. He just rubs salt into his wounds. How vicious is his intention?
"Okay, please shut up." Seeing that the atmosphere was getting worse and worse, Master Xuanhuo on one side couldn't help frowning and immediately stopped him.
"We are all monks at the Dan Formation stage, and we are fellow disciples. If we have any matters, we can discuss them in private. Wouldn't it be ugly if we brought it up to the conference? You are also noisy and abusive in front of so many fellow disciples. If you spread the word, you are not afraid of making people laugh. ?”
"Fellow Xuanhuo, what you said is wrong. Monks in the Dan Formation stage are also human beings. It doesn't hurt to have a quarrel. It just so happens that everyone is here. If you have any grievances, say it to your face. Talking about it can avoid causing bigger misunderstandings. It just so happens that Let us two old guys also listen to it, and comment on them by the way." Ancestor Chi Ling also said with a chuckle.
"This...makes sense." Upon hearing this, Master Xuanhuo's eyes flashed slightly, and he couldn't help but secretly thought, this old guy is really a protector, and he is obviously going to support him.
Although he didn't pay much attention to these common things on weekdays, some people still knew that the alchemy monks who came with him did not have a fuel-efficient lamp and were not very peaceful.
"Boy Mo, tell me what's going on? I'll explain in advance that you must tell the truth without any lies. Otherwise, not only will I not help you, but I will also punish you for disrespecting your brother. Of course, if it's true, No matter what kind of grievances you have suffered, just speak out, I promise to make those who dare to bully you pay the price they deserve."
Ancestor Chi Ling's seemingly indifferent words immediately caused a drastic change in the expressions of everyone on the main sect's side. This bias was too obvious, and he was clearly trying to support those surnamed Mo.
Although no one was involved in the affairs of Tianhua Tower, they were all involved in the revival of Wanbao Pavilion, and everyone had a certain share in it. Wanbao Pavilion and Tianhua Tower compete openly and covertly, and it is difficult for them to completely separate them.
"Ancestor Qi, this matter is a long story, and it starts from five years ago..."
Mo Juren did not hide anything and immediately told the whole story from beginning to end. Including how Huo Changgeng vigorously supported Wanbao Pavilion, how he secretly instigated the Yang family's uncles and nephews, and how he set up a trap for Qi Yunxiao and planted poisonous insects on him, etc.
The matter is very clear and everyone will understand it as soon as they hear it. Of course, everyone already knew it, and they were just pretending to hear it for the first time, especially the elders of the Spirit Beast Mountain family, who all showed expressions of indignation after hearing it. Some people with a bad temper immediately stood up and asked coldly.
It's so hateful, they are still brothers from the same sect, they just left the sect and traveled around for a while. You are better off, you actually secretly attacked other people's property, and you still used such despicable methods, don't you feel ashamed?
If everyone is acting in such chaos, wouldn't it mean that there will be chaos within the sect? Or is it that the main sect is biased against the monks of the branch sect and does not treat them as their own people at all?
Even Master Xuanhuo also frowned after hearing this. He is not a direct elder of the sect, but a person who surrendered after the defeat of the Zijin Kingdom. He is not close to the Danjie disciples who came with him.
However, after all, he was still the leader, and he was entrusted by all the families when he set out. He couldn't really ignore it, but he felt a little unhappy.
Are things really hateful? It is indeed disgraceful to attack a fellow disciple. However, it is far less sensitive than imagined. Whether it is the righteous path or the demonic path, there is always only one rule to follow, which is strength.
So what if they are in the same sect, there have been many things like fighting for power and killing each other, it is not new at all. If you are not strong enough, you will naturally not be able to protect your own property. Even women, if they are taken away by others, it is understandable.
However, all of this has an important prerequisite, and that is that the strength is not enough. If you still provoke someone who is strong enough, you will only be asking for trouble.
But this was the case with Mo Juren. He had indeed been away for more than thirty years, and there was no news from him at all, as if he had disappeared. After all, other people traveling around need to at least send back some information occasionally.
He didn't, and there was no clue at all, which was why others had the illusion that something might have happened.
However, no matter how many reasons there are, one cannot deny the fact that he is back safely and his strength is improving by leaps and bounds. Then, none of the above is true.
Not only is the opponent getting stronger, but he also has so many backers behind him. How can you not pay the price for provoking such a person?
After being interrogated with a slap in the face, the monks of the main sect's alchemy stage naturally looked ugly.
However, the most uneasy people inside were Yang Wanshan and Huo Changgeng. As for the others, they just felt that they were losing face, so they were not that worried.
The resurgence of Wanbao Pavilion is just normal business competition, and the other party cannot blame them for this.
Mo Juren naturally knew this, so he focused his main focus on Yang Huo from the beginning. As long as the two men were severely punished, his goal of establishing power would be achieved.
From the beginning to the end, he clearly remembered his purpose. Whether it was fighting or insulting, they were just means. The purpose was to establish authority and shock, so as to make those who dared to plot against him feel more fearful.
Today, with so many monks at the stage of forming pills present, it is definitely the best time. As long as he surrenders in front of so many people, it will be a lifelong stain, and he will never be able to hold his head up for the rest of his life.
"Fellow Xuanhuo, what do you think?" After listening to Mo Juren's story, Patriarch Chiling also looked gloomy. He did not comment immediately, but asked to the side.
What else can Master Xuanhuo say? The other party obviously intends to support him to the end, but he is unreasonable. What can he do? Are you going to fight each other for the sake of two people who have nothing to do with you?
It didn't matter to him, so he could only make peace with it as much as he could, and forget about the rest.
After thinking for a while, he replied:
"The uncle and nephew of the Yang family and Mr. Huo have indeed done their best, and they must give a satisfactory explanation to Little Friend Mo. Of course, this matter has just begun after all, and it has not caused much damage. As fellow disciples, Little Friend Mo should also act accordingly Give some tolerance and understanding.”
