Shang Tianxiang's words were too serious, and another elder Han Minglin who had always stood by Shang Tianxiang immediately echoed: "That's right, Lao Pei, you said he is the sect master, but he came to this place.
We haven’t even seen Zong’s face for such a long time. Is he trying to be arrogant or is he secretly afraid to see us?”
Indeed, Ye Dong only met the three elders Pei Xingyun, Wei Hongru and Zhou Lin, and the four hall masters, and then never saw anyone except Xingyunfeng again.
However, the reason why he didn't see her was not because he was being arrogant or because he had some evil intentions, but because he was too lazy to see him, and secondly, he had been in seclusion during this period, thinking about ways to defeat the Wuji Sect.
However, Shang Tianxiang and others used his behavior as an excuse to attack Pei Xingyun and others.
No matter how well-educated Pei Xingyun is, he couldn't help but feel a trace of anger on his face when he heard Shang Tianxiang and Han Minglin deliberately slandering each other.
With a cold smile, Pei Xingyun said: "Elder Shang, Elder Han, so you suspect that I have colluded with the sect leader to seek the position of sect leader?"
Shang Tianxiang shrugged his shoulders and said: "Lao Pei, don't worry, this is just our guess, but we still believe you. After all, we have been friends for hundreds of years, and your contribution to our sect is obvious to all.
.”
When it comes to the power of words, Pei Xingyun knew that he was no match for Shang Tianxiang and the others. If Pan Chaoyang faced them, he might have a chance of winning. However, Pan Chaoyang was only the hall leader after all. If he spoke in this situation,
That is the following crime, which is unforgivable, so Pei Xingyun interrupted Pei Xingyun and said: "You have said all the good things, Elder Pei, now that you have said it here, you don't have to hide it for three days.
After that, the day when Wuji Sect comes to visit, tell me how you prepared to face this challenge?"
Shang Tianxiang then smiled slightly and said, "Okay, then I'll tell you my plan first."
After glancing at everyone again, Shang Tianxiang said slowly: "First of all, I am going to put those nine Wuji Sect disciples back!"
As soon as these words were said, the expressions of Pei Xingyun and others changed. You must know that those nine people killed more than ten disciples of the Cihang Sect, and if you include the Faceless Crazy Sword who had already defected to the Wuji Sect.
Seven disciples, that is, nearly twenty disciples died in the hands of the Wuji Sect.
However, now, Shang Tianxiang actually wants to release these nine murderers. This is tantamount to showing weakness to Wuji Sect!
Although they were angry, Pei Xingyun and others did not speak, waiting for Shang Tianxiang to finish speaking.
In response to everyone's silence, Shang Tianxiang nodded with satisfaction and said: "Don't get me wrong, although the Wuji Sect is very powerful, our Cihang Sect is not afraid of them, but if we really break up with the Wuji Sect,
Come, if a war breaks out between our two major sects, not only a dozen disciples will be implicated, but all the disciples!"
"Therefore, what I am doing is to calm things down, reduce major issues to trivial matters, temporarily tide over the current crisis, and then wait until our sect becomes stronger, and then seek revenge from the Wuji Sect for today's revenge!"
Faced with Shang Tianxiang's high-sounding reasons, Pei Xingyun really didn't even feel like arguing anymore. He smiled coldly and said, "Elder Shang, according to your wishes, let's not even participate in the Wuji Sect's challenge.
Just admit defeat and surrender, and then we will take all the disciples and join the Wuji Sect honestly like the Longhua Sect in the Xuanwu Continent?"
A trace of murderous intent flashed through Shang Tianxiang's eyes: "Lao Pei, don't worry, listen to what I have to say. This time the Wuji Sect's declaration of war was signed by both of us on the same day, so naturally it is impossible not to fight.
Just admit defeat, and if you can trust me, I will personally come forward to fight against the Wuji Sect!"
"you?"
Pei Xingyun was very clear in his heart. Not only had Shang Tianxiang set his sights on the position of sect leader for a long time, he had even considered all the steps to become a sect leader.
It is clearly written in the Wuji Sect's battle letter that the target of the challenge is the sect leader of the Cihang Sect, and if Shang Tianxiang fights against him, he will become the sect leader!
Before the fight even started, Shang Tianxiang had the idea of releasing the murderer of the Wuji Sect, which showed that even if he really faced the Wuji Sect, he could not sincerely want to fight for the honor of the Cihang Sect.
And a large part of his purpose of taking the initiative was to defeat the war and surrender to the Wuji Sect!
Because in that case, just like Longhua Sect, with the support of Wuji Sect, he can legitimately take the position of sect leader.
Pei Xingyun's guess is completely correct, this is exactly what Shang Tianxiang really thinks!
In fact, Shang Tianxiang has the ability and ambition to be the chief elder of Cihang Sect, but with Liu Jian's existence before, no matter how courageous he is, he will not really commit the crime and usurp the position of the sect leader.
But as the Liu family was wiped out, Liu Jian took his granddaughter and left the Cihang Sect. This gave Shang Tianxiang a glimmer of hope. This challenge from the Wuji Sect gave him another huge opportunity, which he could take advantage of.
Sit on the throne of the sect leader!
Pei Xingyun was so angry that he actually had a smile on his face and said: "Old Shang, apart from the two Supreme Elders, you are the strongest among us. It is naturally a good thing that you are willing to fight in person. However, in case,
What if you lose?"
Shang Tianxiang slammed the table heavily and said righteously: "If we lose, we can only bear the humiliation and surrender to the Wuji Sect first. But don't worry, a gentleman will take revenge. It will not be too late in ten years. I will definitely work hard to develop the Cihang Sect.
When the time comes, we will work together to overthrow the Wuji Sect and restore the glory of the Cihang Sect!
Shang Tianxiang's ambition was finally safely exposed!
There was silence in the room. Even the two elders and five hall masters who had known Shang Tianxiang's plan in advance were too smart to speak at this moment. Several people's eyes quietly roamed the faces of Pei Xingyun and others. Obviously,
It’s to see their reaction!
"Bah bang bang!"
Suddenly, a burst of applause came from outside the door, and then a clear voice sounded in everyone's ears: "What a person who endures humiliation and works hard! Elder Shang, how can you be so loyal in this critical moment of our sect?"
What a blessing this sect is! However, you seem to have forgotten one thing. The sect leader of Cihang Sect is me, Ye Dong. Until I die, it is not your turn to make the decision on these matters!"
The closed door of the hall suddenly opened, and Ye Dong walked in step by step with a stern face!
