The great elder looked at him inexplicably, with surprise, satisfaction, and a strong look of expectation. However, there was a trace of anger on his face and he reprimanded: "Young people are impetuous by nature. With your talent,
Entering the Nascent Soul Realm is just around the corner, so why rush it? On the contrary, if you lose your own life because of it, that is the real loss outweighing the gain!"
"The lesson taught by the Great Elder is that this disciple was indeed reckless this time." Lin Tian accepted the reprimand humbly, and then defended himself by saying: "It's just that I know that the Cangnan Competition is coming soon, and the sect master has high expectations for me. If
But if I am at the peak of the Golden Core Realm, I am not sure that I can deal with the top genius disciples of those first-class forces, so I thought of giving it a try to see if I can break through to the Nascent Soul Realm, so that I can live up to the expectations of the sect master!"
Hearing Lin Tian's words, the Qinglei Sect Master was slightly startled. He looked at Lin Tian with a look of relief and approval, but then blamed him: "Even if I have high expectations for you, you can't take risks like this!"
Lin Tian lowered his head in shame and said in a weak tone: "Actually, apart from this, there is another reason why the disciple is so desperate."
"Oh? What's the reason?"
This time the person asking was the Great Elder.
Lin Tian raised his head hesitantly, and his eyes happened to fall on the third elder. Then he quickly looked away, lowered his head and said, "It's nothing, it's my own fault."
But who among the people present is not a mature person?
Just this look from Lin Tian was enough to explain a lot of things!
The third elder who was glanced at by Lin Tian suddenly changed his face when he saw the elder's eyes looking towards him. The mood that was originally excited because Lin Tian was seeking his own death suddenly became extremely bad.
, even a little scared!
Meng Tianhua, the Ninth Elder and the Sixth Elder all had a flash of shock and excitement in their eyes. They were shocked because they understood what Lin Tian meant, and excited because they saw the importance that the First Elder and the Sect Leader attached to Lin Tian.
At this time, Lin Tian suddenly pointed the finger at the third elder. What will happen next, they know with their butts!
People say that ginger is still hot when he is old, but now they feel that Lin Tiancai is like a little fox, and they have become a little white rabbit!
"What's going on?"
Seeing the different expressions on the elders' faces, the great elder immediately frowned and asked.
The question from the great elder was more like a reminder to the third elder. He wanted to run away right now, but he knew that if he really did that, the great elder could catch him with one hand.
He was captured like a little chicken, and with so many elders present, even if he tried to quibble, it would be of no use!
Thinking of this, even though the murderous intention towards Lin Tian in his heart had risen to an unprecedented level, he still had no choice but to bite the bullet and take the initiative to explain: "Great Elder, this is how it was. When I first entered the profession,
At that time, because I saw that he was able to cultivate to the middle stage of Jindan realm as a casual cultivator, I doubted that he could
It could be an undercover agent sent by other forces to our Qinglei Sect. In view of this, I want to hand him over to the Law Enforcement Hall for interrogation. If he has no problem, naturally nothing will be done to him, but if there is a problem,
It can be regarded as ensuring the safety of our Qinglei Sect, so that no one can sneak in and become a hidden danger."
The third elder's words can be said to be impeccable, and he directly claimed that his position was for the good of Qinglei Sect, not for other reasons.
In this way, even if the great elder blames him, it is not easy to convict him. After all, he is doing it for the good of his sect.
However, he forgot that he was not the only one present. As soon as he finished speaking, Meng Tianhua snorted coldly: "Third Elder, won't your conscience hurt when you say this? You just didn't want to do it at the beginning.
It's just for Lin Tianduo to compete for a spot as a disciple of the Qinglei lineage, and that's it.
So you suspect that he is an undercover agent sent by other forces. The head brother was also present at that time, as well as all the elders. Even if I can't tell whether he is an undercover agent from other forces, can't they still tell?
If there are any other skills in his body, we will know once we explore them!"
"Hmph! If he is really an undercover agent sent by other forces, don't you think he is unprepared? If you don't want us to find out the skills in his body, we just need some magic weapon to cover it up, but you are so eager to
If he is recruited into the sect, doesn’t it mean he has already colluded with him?”
The third elder immediately dismissed Meng Tianhua, and instead accused Meng Tianhua of colluding with other forces to work as an undercover agent.
Seeing the two people arguing here, the elder's face turned cold, and he suddenly shouted in a deep voice: "Shut up!"
The Third Elder and Meng Tianhua both immediately fell silent. They could argue with the Qinglei Sect Master. After all, they were both peers, but they did not dare to resist at all when facing the First Elder.
After the First Elder gave a cold shout, he suddenly turned his head to look at the Third Elder, and said in a deep voice: "The reason why I let you take charge of the Law Enforcement Hall is because you are relatively selfless in many matters, and you should be able to handle law enforcement fairly.
Tang, but now it seems that you have disappointed me so much."
As soon as these words came out, the third elder's expression suddenly changed drastically. He could be dismissive of what others said, but when the great elder said these words, he believed without a doubt that as long as the great elder said a word, he, the so-called law enforcement officer,
The identity of the church elder can be removed immediately!
Thinking of this, he hurriedly bent his legs, knelt down on one knee, and said in an extremely passionate and excited tone: "Great Elder, from the moment you appointed me as the elder of the Law Enforcement Hall, I have always adhered to a business-like attitude.
, including Lin Tian’s entry this time, the same is true. I
There is absolutely no selfish intention. If the great elder punishes me for this, I have nothing to say, but I will inevitably feel a little uncomfortable in my heart. I have dedicated my life to the Qinglei Sect until my death. No matter how the great elder punishes me, at least I will
Be able to have a clear conscience!”
The third elder said these words with great emotion, just like if the elder really punished him, he would be punishing a hero who was loyal to the Qinglei Sect.
The Fourth Elder on the side also stood up and spoke for him at this time: "Elder, what the Third Brother said is right. He has indeed worked hard and made great achievements over the years. Moreover, after he took charge of the Law Enforcement Hall, the number of mistakes made by the disciples in the sect has become more and more frequent.
Young Master, I still ask the Great Elder to look into this matter clearly."
The First Elder's expression remained unchanged, always filled with frost. After hearing what the two men said, he stared at the Third Elder with sharp eyes and asked in a condescending cold voice: "Are you threatening me with your achievements?"
"Disciple doesn't dare! I have no intention of threatening the Great Elder. It's just that the disciple will inevitably feel a little innocent and aggrieved." The third elder lowered his head and said, as if he was really wronged by this matter.
"I am not an indiscriminate person between right and wrong. Merit deserves reward, guilt deserves punishment. If you make a mistake, you will not be exempted from punishment just because you have merit. But equally, if you have merit, you will not be exempted from punishment.
Say you made a mistake, but don't reward you
Rewards, I have practiced as a casual cultivator to the middle stage of the golden elixir realm. Except for a Qi refining method spread to the outside world, there is no aura of any other techniques in my body. I don’t believe you can’t tell this.
Do you still want to quibble now?"
The great elder snorted coldly and said without mercy.
The third elder was shocked. In fact, he had already felt it at the beginning. It was just because of selfish reasons that he didn't want Lin Tian to get started so easily. What's more, Lin Tian dared to openly challenge the address they gave, which made him feel sad.
It is inevitable that there will be some scientific research, and since he has been in charge of the Law Enforcement Hall for so many years, his prestige is not even lower than that of the sect leader!
A person who has been in a high position for a long time will naturally feel that his self-esteem is damaged if one day he is despised by the people below him, especially for a person like the Third Elder who is petty. However, despite all his calculations, Lin Tian did not count this time.
The situation created by the breakthrough even alarmed the great elder!
