Chapter 167: Infighting

The investigation operation ended up finding nothing.

The barbarian sorcerers who destroyed Jinpeng Castle were as evaporated from the world, and it was difficult to find any trace.

During the exchange with the Chixia Sect monks who came to participate in the investigation, Wang Cheng also learned that in less than half a day, another sect more than 10,000 miles away was also attacked by barbarian sorcerers.

However, the sect was much stronger than Jinpeng Castle and had better luck. After the mountain protection formation was broken, it actually waited for reinforcements in time.

In the end, although the sect suffered heavy losses, it defeated the barbarian sorcerers with the help of reinforcements, and even killed several barbarian sorcerers who were unable to retreat.

If there was no such comparison, perhaps the surviving foundation-building monk in Jinpeng Castle would still swallow this breath.

But now with this comparison, this foundation-building monk named Xu Jinmao could not swallow his breath.

So, when the investigation team gave up on the investigation and returned to the ruins of the mountain gate of Jinpeng Castle, preparing to help the fallen monks and mortals of Jinpeng Castle collect the corpses, Xu Jinmao began to question Wei Chengshan, the leader of the alliance in front of Wang Cheng and other seven leaders.

"President Wei, what do you think of this devastated scene? What do you think of the so-called power of the Hezhong Sect to destroy the barbarians, and now how many barbarians have been destroyed? As the leader of the [Eight-Plan Alliance], you have witnessed the barbarians slaughtering members of the alliance with your own eyes, but you have no way to deal with the barbarians. Don't you feel ashamed?"

The voices of words full of grief and anger floated over the Jinpengbao Mountain Gate.

Xu Jinmao's eyes were red and glaring at Wei Chengshan, completely looking like he was throwing out.

After the destruction of Jinpeng Castle, he, the elder of Jinpeng Castle, has become the commander of the bare feet. Even if he wants to rebuild Jinpeng Castle in the future, he will no longer have the ability and may only be a casual cultivator.

So he is now barefoot and not afraid of wearing shoes, and he has nothing to be afraid of or jealous.

Faced with Xu Jinmao's shouting, Wei Chengshan's face was gloomy and ugly, and he didn't know how to answer.

When he summoned various factions to establish the [Eight-Plan Alliance], he was to unite to fight against the threat of barbarian sorcerers.

As a result, the Barbarian Warlock is indeed here now, but his so-called alliance has not been able to form any help in the Barbarian Warlock's attack.

This result undoubtedly slapped him hard and gave him a great warning.

The prestige he had just established through the suppression of the seven major sects, then it was completely dispersed, and even made people wonder whether this alliance still had the need to exist.

But it is obviously not a solution to remain silent.

I don’t know if Wei Chengshan secretly sent a message to him. As one of the two deputy leaders of the [Eight-Plan Alliance], Li Xuan, the head of the Chixuan Sword Sect, suddenly looked at Xu Jinmao and said, "Fellow Daoist Xu, calm down first. We are very sad and regretful about the experience of Jinpeng Castle, but it would be too far-fetched to put the responsibility for this matter on the leader of Alliance Wei!"

"The order of the leader of Wei to draw monks from various sects to form a reserve team is not wrong. The number of barbarian sorcerers is several times stronger than that of a single sect like us. If there is no similar number of people, even if you arrive at the scene in time, it will be difficult to save people, and you may even be in danger."

"What's more, it's not that Li's attack on fellow Daoist Xu. With the situation where Jinpeng Castle was broken and killed in less than half a day, even without the order from the leader of Wei to draw fellow Daoist Xu, Jinpeng Castle would not be able to hold on until we and the rescuers arrived!"

Xu Jinmao was already angry, but when he heard Li Xuan's words, his chest almost exploded.

He shouted angrily and anxiously: "What does Fellow Daoist Li mean? It means that the reason why my Jinpeng Castle was destroyed is that our Jinpeng Castle is too weak? Since that's the case, why did you invite me Jinpeng Castle to join this shit [Bafang Alliance]?"

When Li Xuan heard his shout, he replied calmly: "Mr. Li didn't say that. Fellow Daoist Xu, you are sad and angry because of the destruction of the sect. Li can understand it, but it is better not to say anything like this that affects unity!"

"Let you go..."

Xu Jinmao's face was so ferocious that he was about to curse.

But at this moment, his ears moved, as if he had heard something. Suddenly his face narrowed, and he turned to sneer and glared at Wei Chengshan and said, "Okay, Alliance Leader Wei is such a good method. He was ashamed of his heart and dared not answer my doubts, so he instigated the lackeys from his disciples to bite people randomly to change the topic? Such insulting behavior of the villain is exactly the same as the leader of Alliance Leader Wei's previous forced several sects to send people to Chishamen!"

After saying that, he didn't look at the gloomy faces of Wei Chengshan and Li Xuan in an instant, and bowed to Xiao Fu, Zhou Yuru, Wang Cheng and others and said, "Dear Masters, Xu, please ask everyone, if Wei Chengshan's previous order is not wrong, then why do you have to summon the monks of various sects to his Chishamen to gather, instead of the weaker Jinpeng Castle or Yufeng Gate?"

"From the perspective of defending the attack of barbarian warlocks, aren't we small sects more guards than the sects with late-stage monks in the foundation building stage?

"If Wei Chengshan is really selfless, shouldn't he let the monks assigned to the eight sects be stationed in small sects like our Jinpeng Castle? Why should he be stationed in Chishamen who have a second-level top-grade mountain protection formation and seven or eight foundation-building monks?"

Xu Jinmao was hoarse at the top of his lungs, his tone was extremely excited and angry.

After hearing what he said, Xiao Fu, Zhou Yuru and the several foundation-building monks present changed their expressions, and their eyes at Wei Chengshan became subtle.

"Enough!"

Wei Chengshan finally couldn't remain silent anymore.

He interrupted what Xu Jinmao wanted to say again with a loud shout. He looked at Xu Jinmao with cold eyes and said in a deep voice: "Fellow Daoist Xu, Wei can understand your current mood, but if you want to rely on others' sympathy and splash dirty water on Wei and slander Wei, then don't blame Wei for being rude!"

After saying that, he glanced at Zhou Yuru, Xiao Fu, Wang Cheng and others, and said in a low tone: "All the leaders are knowledgeable and sensible people. They should be able to understand that Wei's efforts to make the alliance bigger and stronger. The destruction of any sect in the alliance will greatly damage the power of the alliance. How could Wei want such a thing?"

"This time, Jinpeng Castle was destroyed so quickly. It was indeed because Wei was a little unthinkable. He did not expect that the power of those barbarian sorcerers was so powerful."

"Next, Wei will learn from his lessons and gather the people from all sects to divide his troops to garrison Dilingmen and Yufengmen to help the two sects fight against the demon barbarians together!"

Sure enough, as soon as these words came out, the monks from the Diling Sect and the Yufeng Sect all relaxed their expressions and showed joy in their eyes.

On the contrary, the monks from the three sects of Kuimu Sect, Jinhong Sect and Chixuan Sword Sect all changed their faces slightly, and their eyes showed unpleasant expressions.

Especially Zhang Kui, the head of Kuimu Sect, had a faint sense of anger in his eyes.

The Kuimu Sect itself has five foundation-building cultivators, and the head Zhang Kui also has the cultivation level of the middle stage of foundation-building. This kind of strength was originally in the middle of the eight sects in the [Eight-Plan Alliance].

But now that he thought that Jinpeng Castle had not even been able to hold on for half a day, and his own sect was to be transferred away a foundation-building cultivator to help others guard the mountain gate, Zhang Kui, the head of Kui Mu Sect, could no longer be as calm as before.

His eyes flashed with anger and he wanted to open his mouth to say something.

But when he was talking, he suddenly held back and turned to Wang Cheng.

Just now, Wei Chengshan only mentioned the Diling Gate and Yufeng Gate in his words, but there was no Qingyun Gate.

Zhang Kui thought that if he was Wang Cheng, he would definitely say something.

So he planned to wait for Wang Cheng to speak out and then follow suit according to the situation.

However, after Wang Cheng felt the gaze from him, he just sneered at the corner of his mouth and said nothing.

Wei Chengshan is indeed a good method, understands human nature and has a clear understanding of human nature.

At this time, the words directly reversed the adverse situation, making the Earth Spirit Sect and Yufeng Sect, which were originally sad because of the destruction of Jinpeng Castle, and the intention of retreating, become the most loyal supporters of the [Eight-Plan Alliance].

Wang Cheng knew that when he spoke out against him at this time, he would not only fail to achieve any effect, but would also attract the displeasure of Xiao Fu, the head of Diling Sect and Zhou Yuru, the head of Yufeng Sect, and make enemies for him for nothing.

Therefore, it is impossible for Zhang Kui to expect him to speak out.

However, Wang Cheng is not a vegetarian, so he would not let Wei Chengshan bully him like this.

He stood there as if he was not concerned about his own affairs, but secretly sent a message to Xu Jinmao "instructions".

Why say "again"?

Because Xu Jinmao's previous remarks were what Wang Cheng taught him, otherwise he would only be swearing and slapping at Li Xuan, the head of the Chixuan Sword Sect, and how could he see everything clearly and find the true master Wei Chengshan.

At this time, he received Wang Cheng's voice transmission "instruction". Xu Jinmao, who had just been shocked by Wei Chengshan's words, looked blue and white again, and then he sneered and laughed: "Hahaha, Alliance Leader Wei is such a good method. According to you, should Diling Sect and Yufeng Sect still thank me Jinpeng Castle? Thank you for the destruction of my Jinpeng Castle, and have you won them this benefit?"

Speaking of this, he looked at Zhang Kui and Wang Cheng, the heads of Kuimu Sect with a sarcastic look, and said with a sarcastic look, "What about Kuimu Sect? What about Qingyun Sect? Are you 100% confident that you can hold on to reinforcements under the attack of barbarian sorcerers? Or in the heart of the leader of Wei, the two heads and your sects are not as important as Di Ling Sect and Yu Feng Sect?"

After saying this, Wei Chengshan's face became extremely ugly. Even Xiao Fu, the head of the Diling Sect and Zhou Yuru, who thought they would have benefited, also looked ugly.

It’s not that they didn’t understand the intention of Wei Chengshan to make the decision just now, but Wei Chengshan’s decision was indeed very beneficial to their respective sects, so they remained silent.

Now, as soon as Xu Jinmao opened his mouth, he directly put them on the fire and roasted them, as if they were standing on the corpse of Jinpeng Castle to celebrate.

Although this is true.

"Fellow Daoist Xu is so serious. Wang believes that Alliance Leader Wei definitely has no such idea."

Just when everyone looked ugly and didn't know how to refute Xu Jinmao, Wang Cheng suddenly spoke righteously and rejected what Xu Jinmao said.

Then he changed his subject and looked at Wei Chengshan and said, "But Fellow Xu's words are not completely unreasonable. There were only three foundation-building cultivators in this sect. If people were drawn out, if a barbarian attacked, the sect would be in danger. So please allow Elder Xu Jinfeng from this sect to return to the mountain gate to take charge!"
