Chapter 877 Separation(1/3)
Qianxue Zhoujie, Qiandao Sect.
In a grand palace like a beautiful palace.
Elder Shen, who was born in the Shen family and in the Ascension Realm, holds real power, is discussing matters with a group of elders.
Not long after, Elder Zheng, wearing a Taoist robe from Qian Dao Sect, with half-white beard and hair, and stern eyebrows, pushed open the door and entered with an angry look on his face.
There was silence in the hall for a moment.
Elder Shen looked around and waved his hand, "You go out first and we will discuss this later."
"yes."
All the elders and teachers exited the hall.
The palace door was closed, and only Elder Shen and Elder Zheng were left in the palace.
Elder Zheng said directly: "How do you plan to deal with Yan Zhizhou's matter?"
Elder Shen frowned, "How to deal with what? What does Yan Zhizhou's matter have to do with my Qian Dao Sect?"
Elder Zheng sneered, "People in the light don't tell secret things, don't tell me, you don't know anything."
"That ship is really just the Guishui Gate opening?"
"Those disciples gathered together to seek fame, power, and profit. As for the people and families in Qianxue Prefecture who have the greatest fame, wealth and power, who are they?"
"How is it possible that your Shen family and the Qian Dao Sect don't have anything to do with each other?"
Elder Shen remained silent.
Elder Zheng saw this and sneered:
"It's useless if you don't tell me. I checked and found that there are traces of your Shen family on the back of that ship. And on that ship, many disciples of Qian Dao Sect have been there..."
"Elder Zheng..." Elder Shen's face darkened and he said coldly, "Don't slander and say such irresponsible things."
Elder Zheng sneered, "Whether it is slander or not, you know it yourself. I used to think that you were a selfish and greedy person who was pursuing fame and wealth, but I didn't think so. You have lost your Taoist heart to this point, harboring filth and evil behind your back, and acted like a pig. Something worse than a dog..."
Elder Shen slapped the case angrily and screamed: "That's enough!"
Elder Zheng looked tough.
Elder Shen took a breath, suppressed his anger, pointed at Elder Zheng and said:
"Mr. Zheng, I am so tolerant to you just for the sake of your Zheng family. Don't push yourself too far!"
"What do you mean by pushing the envelope?" Elder Zheng retorted, "I don't distinguish between right and wrong. Wearing the same pants as your Shen family and being your Shen family's dog and horse, you can't push the envelope? Is this the duty of the elders of Qian Dao Sect?"
Elder Shen said in a cold voice: "Elder Zheng, please be careful what you say."
"If you don't speak carefully, what can you do? Let me ask you, what are you going to do about Yan Zhizhou?" Elder Zheng said with a cold face.
Elder Shen didn't want to talk about this matter at first, but seeing Elder Zheng's attitude of not giving up until his goal was achieved, and fearing that the matter would become a big deal, he said impatiently:
"My ancestor has already planned this matter."
"What's the plan?" Elder Zheng asked.
Elder Shen's expression changed, and he sighed slightly, "The matter about Rouge Zhou was caused by an oversight by my Shen family. Originally, it was just a convenience for Guishuimen, but I didn't want them to be so presumptuous and act recklessly..."
"It's more convenient?" Elder Zheng's eyes were sharp. "I'm afraid the profit and water that your Shen family made from this is not small. Is it because you eat too much and just turn a blind eye?"
Elder Shen did not answer, but asked: "Which family does not pursue interests? Your Zheng family does not pursue interests?"
"At least I, the Zheng family, will not seek such benefits."
"Okay, okay, your Zheng family is noble, and then what?" Elder Shen sneered, "What do you think, do you want to ask me about the Shen family's sins?"
Elder Zheng: "Of course I can't ask about the sins of your Shen family. But I am the legal elder of the Qiandao Sect. I have to take care of those disciples who have been on the Rouge Boat and violated the sect's rules."
Elder Shen suppressed his anger and said, "What do you want?"
Elder Zheng said: "Abolish your cultivation and be expelled from the sect!"
Elder Shen slapped the table and said angrily: "Nonsense!"
He was so angry that his hands trembled, "Who are they? They are all... the geniuses of all the major families. Everyone's spiritual roots are of the highest quality. They are the top 'pearls' among the monks in the world. How can they If you can just say no, then give it up? Who gave you the courage?"
"Besides, what time is it now?"
"The Sword Discussion Conference is coming soon. If you abolish them, who will fight for my rank in Dao Sect? To fight for profits? To fight for the share of Qianlongling Mine?"
Elder Shen frowned and accused, "You are such a short-sighted person, why don't you take the overall situation into consideration at all?"
"So?" Elder Zheng sneered, "You just want to cover them up like this?"
"This is not a cover-up..." Elder Shen sighed, "They are still young. Who doesn't make some mistakes when they are young? Always give them a chance to change."
"What's more, I think you should know how important this sword discussion conference is. Compared with the interests of the sect, what are these small things?"
Elder Zheng's eyebrows were sharp, "Is this a trivial matter?"
"I said, compared with the interests of the sect..."
"Open your mouth for the family's interests and shut your mouth for the sect's interests. They are all interests. Where do you put the monk's 'morality'?"
"Let's put 'morality' aside first..."
"Why put it aside?" Elder Zheng asked, and then his voice became cold, "Once something like morality is put down, can it be picked up again?"
Elder Shen waved his hand impatiently, "I can't talk to people like you."
Elder Zheng also looked like he was playing the piano to a cow, "So, this matter is settled like this?"
Elder Shen said: "Da Xing does not care about meticulousness. In order to take care of the overall situation, these matters will not be pursued, and..."
Elder Shen didn't want to say anything at first, but at this time he had to lower his voice and warned Elder Zheng: "My ancestor has already agreed on this matter, so don't make matters worse."
Ancestor...
Elder Zheng's eyes revealed deep disappointment:
"You are... a small gain at the expense of a big gain..."
Elder Shen was impatient: "I said this is taking the overall situation into consideration, how can it be possible to lose a big thing for a small thing?"
Elder Zheng shook his head and said slowly: "Placing more emphasis on profit and forgetting righteousness. If things go on like this, all the sects of the aristocratic family will be those who pursue profit and forget righteousness..."
"Eating profits to get rich, exploiting them, big families and big sects will sooner or later monopolize all benefits and inheritance, and become a behemoth, causing the cultivation world to be divided up and down, and the people to live in dire straits."
"This is a sign of the corruption of heaven. It looks prosperous, but the building will collapse. It's just a matter of sooner or later."
"Here we go again, here we go again, the building is about to collapse, alarmist talk..." Elder Shen was impatient, he raised his arms and said proudly:
"Look at the borders of the Qianxue State, look at our Qiandao Sect, the Yuyu tower, the high clouds and the mist, how could it not be like an immortal family? How can it be corrupted?"
Elder Zheng said indifferently: "The jade world only has its appearance, and the clouds and mist float in the sky. The prosperity of external objects cannot cover up the corruption of the human heart."
"You are still like this..." Elder Shen spat out four words, "Unreasonable!"
He waved his hand and said, "I don't have time to talk to you about all this. There are still important things to discuss at the Dao Discussion Conference. If Elder Zheng is free, please help. If not, don't mess around here. , otherwise..."
Elder Shen sneered, "I'm afraid you won't be able to hold your position as an elder for long..."
"No need." Elder Zheng directly threw a jade slip in front of Elder Shen, "I quit!"
Elder Shen was stunned, "What did you say?"
Elder Zheng said word by word: "I said, I won't do this as a bad elder of the Dao Sect!"
Elder Shen's face was ashen. He picked up the jade slip that Elder Zheng threw to him. When he saw the two big words "Resignation" on the jade slip, he immediately looked shocked and said angrily in disbelief:
"How unreasonable, you... do you know how many monks there are outside, trying to get a job in our Qian Dao Sect, but you actually, actually..."
Elder Zheng sneered, "Your Qiandao Sect's temple is too big, and my little Buddha is not worthy of it."
After saying that, he waved his sleeves and left.
"stop!"
Elder Shen shouted immediately, then calmed down, looked at Elder Zheng, and said slowly:
"Don't forget, I, the Daoist Sect, have made an agreement with your ancestor of the Zheng family. You can leave, but your Zheng family's formation must be passed down."
Elder Zheng looked solemn, "Ancestor just agreed to think about it. In the end, it is up to me to decide whether to pass it on or not."
"What's more, my Zheng family's Bagua Thunder Formation is extremely strong and has a bad character. The disciples of Qian Dao Sect don't have the character to learn from it!"
"Absurd!" Elder Shen pointed at Elder Zheng and said, "You, the Zheng family, don't think too highly of yourself. I, Qian Dao Sect, am a giant in Qian learning, with a gathering of geniuses and talents from all over the world. My disciples, Qian Dao Sect, are not worthy of learning from me? Who can? Matching school?”
Elder Zheng sneered, "Tianjiao? The structure is despicable, he is selfish, and he indulges his own selfish interests. What can he do even if he has a heavenly spiritual root? He is just a cancer at the top of his cultivation level."
"In the future, poison will be spread throughout the world, causing imbalance in the way of heaven and causing great disasters. If you lead the Taoist sect, you will be the place to support bandits! For such a sect, please forgive Zheng for being insensitive!"
"Okay, okay," Elder Shen said angrily, "Our Qiandao Sect is one of the four major sects of Qianxue. It is very powerful. If you are missing one person, it is only a drop in the bucket. On the contrary, you... today's decision, you have to do everything possible." Don’t regret it!”
Elder Zheng glanced at Elder Shen with disdain, walked away without any regrets.
Elder Shen was left alone, flipping up the table and slamming the table in the main hall, feeling helpless and furious.
Ever since he became the true elder of the Qian Dao Sect, no one has ever dared to disrespect him so much, and no one has ever abandoned the respected elder position of the Qian Dao Sect like a piece of shit.
Elder Shen was furious.
