Lan Fenghuang just nodded slightly, looked at the four elders and said, "During this period, several elders have been busy."
An elder on the left half-opened his eyes with a haughty attitude, "Leader, do you know your sin?!"
Lan Fenghuang frowned slightly, "Elder Wu, please speak frankly!"
An elder next to Elder Wu sneered: "Our sect was invaded by foreign enemies, and the leader did not lead the people in the sect to resist, but instead he was in a close relationship with this Han man. Is he not guilty?"
The surrounding ordinary believers who had come to greet Lan Phoenix tightened their encirclement.
The loyal men around Lan Fenghuang did not have the numerical advantage, so they panicked and drew their weapons first.
She immediately stopped her words and tried her best to stay calm and said: "The Sun Moon God Sect and the Baicao Sect have a large number of people. Our sect has no other choice but to defend according to the danger. We can only find a way to eliminate this fight.
This Mr. Xu, no, he is now the leader of the Five Mountains Sword Sect. He has personally made an agreement with Dongfang Bubai, the leader of the Sect, that the Sun and Moon Sect will not attack us again for at least one year.
Otherwise, why would they and the Baicao Sect suddenly withdraw? Have the elders thought about it?"
Most of the people surrounding them were bewitched by a few elders. When they heard Lan Fenghuang's explanation, they were immediately a little suspicious.
Elder Wu forcefully paused the snake-shaped iron staff in his hand, and coldly snorted: "Fart, the scum of the Demon Sect and Baicao Sect were clearly repelled by me and others. Even with this young Han boy next to you, you can fight with them."
Dongfang Bubai makes a promise?!"
These people have been in the deep altar for a long time, and the information in the mountain was originally blocked. In addition, they were determined to suppress the authority of Blue Phoenix. Naturally, it was impossible to admit that the credit for repelling the enemy was caused by Blue Phoenix.
"So these elders just don't believe what this leader said?"
The four elders all sneered, and their cronies around them also laughed.
Someone directly said to Xu Yin: "This Han man is handsome, but he deceived the leader into all kinds of confusion. I heard that you want to marry him as your wife. Haha, don't this Han people know that the leader
You can't get married?"
Lan Fenghuang didn't have a good temper. Someone dared to do something like this. She immediately swung her whip and knocked the sarcastic person to the ground.
The man screamed, and without checking the wound, he poured out the medicine from the bottle and swallowed it hastily.
The Blue Phoenix whip is poisonous, as every believer knows.
Just as she was about to be whipped for the second time, another elder said coldly: "Why, don't you allow others to talk about what you do?"
"Then according to Elder Yuan's wishes, the members of this sect can spread rumors and slander the leader at will? In this case, it is better for the four elders to assume the position of leader!"
The four elders looked at each other with a hint of a treacherous smile.
They do not want to compete for the position of leader, because the Five Poison Cult is similar to primitive shamanism.
The leader was randomly selected by the priests during the sacrifice to the military leader Chi You, and they were all quite young children.
These selected children will be taught and practice special poisonous skills from an early age. When the previous leader dies, they will naturally take over.
However, where there are people, there are rivers and lakes. The leader is determined by traditional customs and has the highest authority in the church in name. No one dares to risk violating tradition and blasphemy by deposing the leader and establishing himself.
Therefore, as a secondary authority, the four elders must suppress the leader in order to stabilize their power.
They have been in office for a long time and have a wide network of contacts. If the leader has a weak character or does not practice poisonous skills well and is not strong enough, he can only be a puppet and be manipulated by others.
But in fact this is not the case. If there are no accidents in the inheritance of the leader, usually the previous leader will abdicate around the age of sixty to seventy, and the successor leader will be in the prime of life at the age of forty.
Successors of this age have often achieved great success in their poisonous skills and have managed a certain team. Coupled with the legacy of the previous leader, they are enough to compete with the families in the sect that have lasted for several generations.
However, Lan Fenghuang's succession was an accident. The previous leader had an accident and died prematurely.
Lan Fenghuang succeeded to the position of leader in his early twenties, but his poison skills had not yet been fully developed, and his own team had not yet been established.
The fact that she can maintain this level of independence instead of becoming a puppet of the four elders is enough to prove that her personal wisdom far exceeds that of ordinary people.
In fact, if she is given a few more years to practice her poisonous skills to a certain degree, and then she can continue to fight against these four elders, she will definitely gain the upper hand!
The four elders naturally realized this, so they immediately seized the moment of crisis for the sect and tried every means to embarrass her and suppress her power and reputation.
The leader, Elder Wu, said: "The leader has spoken seriously. He actually doubts our four loyal ministers so much? We cannot bear this crime. We only ask the leader to kill us to show his loyalty!"
As he spoke, the four elders secretly smiled cunningly and took the initiative to kneel down to Lan Fenghuang.
Immediately, some of the elders’ confidants shouted to the unsuspecting churchgoers: “The four elders are loyal to protect the church, but the leader of the church doesn’t distinguish between right and wrong and wants to kill them!”
"How could the leader do this! When our sect was attacked by the Han people, we didn't see her in the sect. It was only thanks to the command of the four elders that we were able to stop those guys. The elders are all heroes, how can we kill them just as they say!"
"Don't you know? The leader has been bewitched by that Han man. There is nothing he can't do!"
More and more congregants came closer with dissatisfaction. They could not see everything that Lan Fenghuang had done in the Central Plains. They only saw that the four elders had contributed a lot some time ago.
In addition, the Demon Sect's attack on the Five Poison Sect was somewhat related to Lan Fenghuang's help to the Holy Aunt, so many people in the sect were complaining.
However, they have forgotten that precisely because of the close relationship between Lan Fenghuang and the Holy Aunt, foreign trade within the church has become more frequent in the past few years, and they are mostly cared for by the Holy Aunt's subordinates. They are rarely bought by cunning Han traders at low prices for their hard-earned refining.
The seedlings came out.
The life within the clan is becoming more and more prosperous, and the population is also increasing, which is something that none of the previous leaders have been able to achieve!
When Lan Fenghuang saw this, she felt panicked. Suddenly she felt a pair of big hands holding her hand, and a warm current came up, which immediately made her feel a lot more at ease.
No matter what, we can't let the believers think that we are killing heroes indiscriminately.
She quickly went to help the four elders, and at the same time said loudly with her inner strength: "This leader has absolutely no intention of this! It's just a moment of anger, the four elders must not misunderstand!"
She had just held Elder Wu's arms, but Elder Wu secretly used his strength to pull Lan Fenghuang to the ground, making her embarrassed and embarrassed in front of the congregation!
Lan Fenghuang was shocked. Her skills were still low and she was unprepared. She was about to suffer a big loss when suddenly a strong force supported her waist, and then two palms penetrated from the waist, and then a burst of energy came out from the two palms.
Shocked outside!
Elder Wu whispered softly, and felt an overwhelming force coming from his arms, lifting him up, but he was unable to resist.
After getting up, Elder Wu noticed a man standing behind Lan Fenghuang. He had a pair of cold and narrow eyes, shining with light, and a smile on his lips, looking humble but not easy to mess with.
