Zhang Ke turned to look at a few people and smiled at Bi Luo.
He also saw Bi Luo's small movements very clearly, and he was naturally moved in his heart.
He then spoke:
"The sect has five mountains and twelve peaks, and most of the disciples of the sect come from them.
The sect has developed rapidly over the years, accumulated countless resources, and created many golden elixir masters.
But because of this, great hidden dangers have been laid.
As long as you are human, you will always have selfish motives, and this is something that no one can avoid.
Now in the sect, who doesn't know that the internal resources are piled up like a mountain, so naturally they are working hard to seek benefits for the disciples.
Patriarchs are also human beings, and they also have their favorite disciples and disciples. Of course, they are not exempt from vulgarity.
Moreover......"
Zhang Ke suddenly asked Zhenjun Chongxiao:
"How many people are there in the sect now, the True Lord Yuanshen?"
True Lord Chongxiao pondered for a moment and said:
"The Patriarch of Tianya, the Patriarch of Lieyan, the Patriarch of Xinghe, and the Patriarch of Jiuren.
And Fei Lei, Furong, your master, I..."
After a brief pause, he added: "As well as Senior Brother Rizhao, there are nine people in total."
Zhang Ke glanced at his master and saw that she was not surprised at all, understanding that perhaps this was a secret that only the True Lord level knew.
"Oh! So, it was originally rumored that Uncle Rizhao failed to advance to Yuanshen, just so that he could hide in the dark."
True Lord Chongxiao nodded and said: "That's exactly it!"
"Now there are nine True Lords in our sect, if it weren't for the fact that we have received a lot of benefits in recent years.
I’m afraid that with the strength of the master’s sect, we simply can’t afford it, right?”
True Lord Yuanshen consumes a lot of resources, especially the True Lord who has just advanced and is not yet able to go out into the void.
Daily practice requires more support from the sect.
True Lord Chongxiao seemed to have some realization:
"You mean that some people are worried that resources will be exhausted by the ancestors, and deliberately indulge their disciples?"
Zhang Ke nodded and said:
"This may be just one of the reasons. You don't care about the disciples from Wanshou Mountain causing trouble to the sect.
Then in the future, if other people follow this example and lie down on the sect to suck blood, how should you punish them?"
True Lord Chongxiao felt a chill in his heart. It seemed that he had taken this matter lightly after all.
Zhang Ke added: "In my opinion, the biggest problem facing our school now is unfairness.
This has little to do with the disciples of Wanshou Mountain.
If the wind catching platform had not played its due role, the disciples of Wanshou Mountain would never have dared to be so unscrupulous."
True Lord Chongxiao felt his face was burning. A junior pointed out his shortcomings in front of his face, which made him feel embarrassed.
True Lord Yue Gui looked on and wanted to laugh. This was the first time she had seen her senior brother so embarrassed.
True Lord Chongxiao tried his best to argue:
"I have informed the headmaster of all these matters, but he just doesn't care. I..."
Zhang Ke intercepted and said:
"Uncle Master is now the True Lord of Yuanshen. Why does the Headmaster dare to be so contemptuous? Why don't you see the Headmaster being slack on other Patriarchs?"
True Lord Chongxiao was speechless. He had just advanced to the Yuanshen level and had not yet truly established his position.
After a moment of silence, he asked: "In your opinion, how should we handle this matter?"
Zhang Kesen said calmly: "Kill if you need to, and punish if you need to. What's so difficult about this?"
True Lord Chongxiao said:
"That's easy to say. As you said, if the Patriarch is secretly involved, how can we coordinate the relationship?"
Zhang Ke said meaningfully:
"Uncle Master! Now you are also the True Lord of Yuanshen! Who dares to really not care about your opinions?
My master, Grandmaster Xinghe, and Uncle Feilei will all be on your side.
Uncle Master does not need to go into battle personally on this matter, he can just leave it to his disciples to handle it openly.
Anyway, the disciple now has a bad reputation and is the deacon of Catching Tower, so no one can say anything.
Even if the ancestors are unhappy, haha! I can still hold on now."
True Lord Chongxiao pondered for a moment and suddenly said:
"Ruyi! This matter involves two points, Ten Thousand Beast Mountain and the Headmaster. What are you going to do?"
Zhang Ke smiled slightly: "Uncle, don't worry! Disciples will never seize the position of headmaster!"
"Ahem—!"
True Lord Chongxiao couldn't help coughing twice after hearing this.
How could this guy guess what he was thinking all of a sudden?
Turning around and seeing the strange look in Zhenjun Yuegui's eyes, he hurriedly explained:
"Hahaha! Well, don't get me wrong!
That's not what I meant, I just wanted to ask Ruyi if there is anything that needs my help."
Zhang Ke smiled and said: "Uncle Master really needs some help with this matter."
True Lord Chongxiao was startled and asked, "What do you need me to do?"
"This disciple wants to go to the Wind Catching Platform to check some information, and may also need to get some things.
But now the disciple’s authority is insufficient, and the master uncle is required to issue an entry and exit voucher.”
"It's easy. Just ask if you need anything. You can control everything up and down the storm platform."
Bi Luo asked from the side: "Senior brother! What about me? What should I do?"
Zhang Ke scratched his head a little, and he didn't know what the master was doing by calling Bi Luo here.
True Lord Yuegui said:
"Bi Luo! Just stay with Ruyi and learn how your senior brother does things."
Bi Luo said a heavy 'hmm' and stood next to her senior brother with a smile on her face.
Her affection for Zhang Ke was clearly seen by True Lord Yue Gui, but Zhang Ke didn't seem to have this intention.
In line with the idea that the wealth should not go to outsiders, she wanted to set up a match to see if the two could get together.
...
Early morning five days later.
The warning bell of Xiantian Yiqi Sect suddenly rang.
"Boom——!"
"Boom——!"
"..."
The bell rang six times in a row, and some Xiantian Yiqi Sect disciples who heard the bell rushed towards the sect.
The last time the bell rang was a hundred years ago.
At that time, the bell was rung because Zhang Ke was trapped by the Shenyi Sect and the sect was preparing for war.
Six bells ring, which means that all inner disciples of Xiantian Yiqi Sect and above will be summoned.
After these years of development, the number of disciples within the sect has reached five thousand.
Except for the disciples who were traveling and in retreat, all the others rushed to the Ziwei Hall in Danxia Mountain.
In addition, nearly two hundred golden elixir masters and several ancestors in the sect have also incarnated here.
Master Mingxiao, who was in seclusion in a quiet room, was stunned when he heard the sound of the bell.
The warning bell will ring only in matters of life and death.
Moreover, there will be no more than five people in the entire Xiantian Yiqi Sect who are qualified to ring this bell.
The leader is Mingxiao, the Presbyterian Church is Canghai, the Wind Catching Tower is Chongxiao, the Discipline Academy is Wanlin, the Affairs Hall is Wangyang, etc.
Even the lords of the mountains and peaks do not have this authority.
The most important thing is that no one reported the bell to me this time.
The meaning contained in this is worth pondering.
After the bell rang, Master Mingxiao said in a deep voice: "Here comes someone!"
Outside the quiet room, a disciple outside responded: "Disciple is here!"
"Let's find out who rang the warning bell?"
"yes!"
Not long after, the disciple returned again and answered outside the quiet room:
"Headmaster! This is the warning bell that Master Ruyi, the deacon of the Catching Tower Chongxiao, ordered to ring."
Headmaster Mingxiao suddenly felt a little pain in his head.
Master Ruyi has always acted boldly, and I don't know what trouble he is going to make this time.
As my mind turned, I remembered something, and I couldn't help but feel my heart skip a beat.
‘Isn’t it about the Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain matter?’
He knows the real person Ruyi quite well.
This person is quite stubborn in nature, and he hates evil as much as he hates it, and he will retaliate with anger.
Moreover, due to his many years of operation, he has many friends and disciples, and now he has considerable influence within the sect.
Even I was a little afraid of him.
After pondering for a moment, he said in a concentrated voice: "Please come over, Master Qingju from the Mountain of Beasts!"
"yes!"
...
In the Ziwei Palace.
For an hour, thousands of disciples stood in the hall in darkness.
In the center, Ding Xiaoxiao stood at the front, with more than twenty rows of Feilai Peak disciples standing behind her.
Beside her were Ye Zhengqing, Fan Chunlai and more than thirty other Jindan masters.
When Ding Xiaoxiao was born, there was a vision within a hundred miles, and Lord Jiuren believed that she had a unique Taoist body.
After years of careful training, Ding Xiaoxiao has lived up to expectations, and at this time his cultivation has reached the Golden Core Dragon and Tiger realm.
Therefore, after the death of Master Feilai Peak of Rizhao, Ding Xiaoxiao has taken over as the peak master of Feilai Peak.
The Conjuration Masters used to be the most powerful faction in the sect, but now they are far behind the Talisman Masters.
At the very edge of the left side of Feilai Peak, stood the Bijia Peak disciples headed by Guan Yu.
Behind him are numerous talisman masters, whose number is more than 20% greater than that of Feilai Peak disciples.
After Fei Lei, the master of Bijia Peak, advanced to become a true king, according to the usual practice, he had to step down as the peak master.
Otherwise, a group of Jindan Realm real people are meeting, and a Yuanshen Zhenjun is sitting there. It is expected that both parties will not feel very comfortable.
Therefore, after Fei Lei Zhenjun resigned, he designated Guanyu as the master of Bijia Peak.
This decision surprised many people.
Guanyu has a calm temperament, and many disciples of Bijia Peak know this best, and they don't know why they chose him to be the peak leader.
And only some insiders know the inside story.
Guanyu's master Yue Gui Zhenjun's lineage produced a Zhenjun with nine golden elixirs.
His junior brothers Ruyi Zhenren and Biluo Zhenren are not only powerful, but also have many friends and have great influence in the sect.
In addition, Feilei Zhenjun believes that the current momentum of the sect's Talisman Master is too strong, and a calmer peak master is needed to buffer it.
So Guanyu was chosen as his successor.
In addition, among other factions, the disciples from Ten Thousand Beast Mountain probably have the most.
Master Qingju was also standing at the front of the team, frowning as he thought about what Headmaster Mingxiao had just said to him.
Although it was just a few simple greetings, he could already hear that Headmaster Mingxiao meant to tell him to be careful.
Behind him, many disciples from Wanshou Mountain were standing in an awkward manner, talking loudly and noisily.
It is completely different from the neat and solemn queues of other factions.
Master Qingju listened to the noisy voices behind him and felt that his thoughts were frequently interrupted.
Impatiently: "Shut up, everyone!"
The loud shout was like thunder, startling many disciples of Wanshou Mountain.
They looked at each other, not daring to speak louder, but they gave some pointers to the female colleagues around them.
Almost all the disciples looked at the disciples from Wanshou Mountain with disgust.
And not only did they not feel ashamed, but they became proud of themselves.
Master Qingju took a deep breath and decided not to interact with these people.
Since he was taught a lesson by Zhang Ke three years ago, he has become much more at ease in the past two years.
