The southern provinces are mountainous, but they are not the magnificent and vast mountains that stretch thousands of miles, but the low mountains that protrude from the flat ground and are steep and beautiful.

The so-called low is of course just relative.

The headquarters of the Wuzu Gate is located in the suburbs of Yunchuan City, on a mountain about 600 meters high.

This mountain is also named "Five Ancestors" and has almost become a symbol of the Five Ancestors' Sect.

The buildings are either gorgeous and exquisite, simple and elegant, or simple and atmospheric, and are scattered between the mountains, scattered in a variety of places, surrounded by trees and flowers blooming, which is beautiful.

If you look down from a high altitude, you will find that the layout of the headquarters of the Five Ancestors is not unruly.

On the contrary, those buildings are arranged in a certain formation and once they encounter attacks from foreign enemies, they can immediately form a ten-sided ambush.

At the top of the Five Ancestor Peak, there is a Taoist temple.

It covers a small area, with a blue-gray whole body and an ordinary shape. There is a plaque hanging at the door, with three ancient seal scripts written on it with powerful brushstrokes of "Five Ancestors".

The Five Patriarchs’ Gate is on the Five Patriarchs’ Peak, and the Five Patriarchs’ Gate is in the Five Patriarchs’ Gate.

Many years ago, the five masters of Huajin founded the current Five Patriarchs in this Taoist temple.

If the Five Ancestor Peak is a symbol of the Five Ancestors, then the Five Ancestors Temple is its soul.

The Five Patriarchs' Temple strictly abide by Taoist rules and built the Three Qing Halls, the Jade Emperor Pavilion and the Four Imperial Palaces.

At this moment, in the Sanqing Hall in the middle, Liang Hong sat cross-legged on a cushion and told the senior officials in the door that he had paid homage to Lin Chong.

As a famous sect in the martial arts world, although the Five Ancestors do not have super strong men at the Danjin level, there are many masters of Huajin.

They all gathered in the Taoist temple, and they couldn't even sit in the Sanqing Hall, and some of them could only stand outside.

"So, what Alliance Leader Lin means is to let us trade a letter of fame?"

After the leader finished his narration, a middle-aged man with a thin figure and a demeanor spoke in a deep voice.

"President Lin did not say it clearly, but Duan Zhaonan explained it."

Liang Hong nodded: "I think it makes sense."

"I have heard of the rumors outside recently."

The middle-aged man looked around: "Everyone is his own, and I don't hide it. According to reliable information, the reason why those rumors spread more and more intensely was mainly because Zhenwu Sect and Wuji Sect were fueling the fire."

The crowd suddenly had a commotion, but it quickly subsided.

Since they can be among the top leaders of the Fifth Ancestors, who is not well-informed?

The Zhenwu Sect and Wuji Sect spread rumors and slander Lin Chong is almost equivalent to a semi-public secret.

“There is nothing new under the sun.”

Opposite the middle-aged man, another tall young man with a cold expression and dark eyebrows couldn't help but sneer: "If you don't have the brightness, you'll be silly; if you don't have the hardness, you'll be soft. The martial arts world has always been like this, and we're not surprised."

As soon as this sentence was spoken, many people nodded in agreement.

"It is easy to hide from the open gun, but it is difficult to defend against hidden arrows. Alliance Leader Lin is still too careless. He should have clarified it from the beginning, rather than being involved in the whirlpool of public opinion like now and cannot get out of it."

"Who said no? Alliance Leader Lin finally underestimated the despicableness of Zhenwu Sect and Wuji Sect."

"Ahem, please be careful with your words!"

"I want to remind everyone that this is the grudge between Alliance Leader Lin and Zhenwu Sect and Wuji Sect. It has nothing to do with our Five Ancestors. Everyone should remain neutral and not take sides."

"You don't feel conflicted when you want to stay neutral and want to use the power of others?"

"Are you reminded me and you were wrong?"

"Shut up the timid guy!"

"The surname is Pan, who do you think is timid and afraid of things?"

A fierce quarrel suddenly broke out in the Sanqing Hall.

The senior officials were divided into two factions, clearly distinguishing themselves from each other, constantly attacking each other with words.

A few of them had bad tempers left their seats, rolled up their sleeves, pointed at the opposite side and cursed. If they hadn't been held tightly by the people next to them, they would have performed a full martial arts movement.

This chaotic scene is the best manifestation of the contradictory mentality of the Five Ancestors.

They hope to break the shackles, achieve the long-cherished wish of ancestors of all generations, and become an hidden sect that runs alongside the Wuji Sect, Zhenwu Sect, Tianlong Sect, Donghua Sect and others;

But at the same time, they were afraid that after taking that step, they would arouse the anger of the existing hidden sects, which would cause a catastrophe to the Five Ancestors.

In short, they want both bear paws and not fish.

Seeing that the situation was about to get out of control, Liang Hong frowned and held his forehead with his hands, feeling a split headache.

"Shut up!"

The voice with anger was like thunder, echoing in the hall.

Seeing that the head of the sect was angry, everyone who was arguing endlessly immediately shut their mouths.

"I call you to a meeting, not to listen to your quarrels."

Liang Hong looked around, his eyes as sharp as a knife, as if he wanted to penetrate the hearts of the people: "Since you don't agree, then vote."

After saying that, Liang Hong clapped his hands.

Several disciples walked into the hall, one of them held a ballot box in his arms, while several others were holding paper and pen respectively.

They placed the ballot box on the floor in front of Liang Hong and sent paper and pen to the senior management of the Five Ancestors.

After doing these things, he retreated silently.

"If you agree to cooperate with the Wu League and agree to trade the letter of honor, just draw a circle on the paper."

Liang Hong wrapped his arms around his chest and his spine straight: "If you oppose cooperation with the Wu League and ask for continued neutrality, you will draw a fork."

Everyone couldn't help but look at each other.

Even though they had serious confrontation with each other's ideas, they felt that the decision Liang Hong made was a bit ridiculous.

"Master, I also agree with the vote, but..."

The middle-aged man on the left showed hesitation and immediately said in a deep voice: "Do you guys discuss it first?"

"This matter is decided quickly and cannot be delayed."

Liang Hong cut the railway firmly: "The longer you drag it, the easier it is to miss the opportunity, so it is better to cut the mess quickly. You can follow your original intention and vote for yourself."

The middle-aged man opened his mouth and said nothing.

"Let's get started."

Liang Hong's eyes closed slightly, as if an old monk had entered into meditation. His plain words came out of his mouth: "Give you five minutes to consider, and count the votes in five minutes."

Everyone held paper and pen and exchanged their eyes in secret, and the atmosphere became stiff and dull.

"I'll do it first!"

The tall young man sitting opposite the middle-aged man smiled, spread the paper on the ground, drew a large circle, and folded it and threw it into the ballot box.

Seeing this, some swaying senior management became increasingly shaken.

Five minutes passed in a flash.

The last senior executive of the Five Ancestors' Sect finished voting, and Liang Hong finally opened his eyes.

"Okay, I'll start counting votes now."

Without any delay or help from others, Liang Hong personally opened the ballot box, took out the voting paper from it, and showed it to everyone: "Agree, one vote."

"Oppose, one vote."

"Oppose, two votes."

"Agree, two votes."

“Agree, three votes…”
