Hearing this, Elder Xuanyin showed a faint smile, stroking his long white beard and said nothing.
The other palace masters also showed cryptic expressions.
Sweat broke out on Gouzi Mo's forehead, and he just hoped that Lin Lang would never do anything outrageous again.
In fact, other hall masters also wanted to know how Elder Xuan Yin would answer. Or they wanted to see what the upper echelons of the shrine's attitude towards Changliu Hall was.
Although there is a high probability that I gave up.
But no matter what you say about Changliu Hall, with the hard power of the disciples of the sect, it can still be ranked among the middle-ranking divine eagles. Is it just because Changliu Hall is a gathering place for thorns, just because the disciples include the hall master?
, have you ever made an unforgivable mistake?
Maybe it's more than that.
Elder Xuanyin thought for a while, then suppressed his smile and spoke slowly.
"It's simple, because it's not worth it."
"not worth?"
Lin Lang raised his eyebrows slightly: "Is it the disciples of Changliu Hall who make you feel unworthy of training, or does the master of the hall make you feel unworthy??"
"Not worth it."
Elder Xuanyin slowly shook his head.
"The entire Changliu Hall, from the master Gou Zimo to all the disciples in the hall. From the mountains, rivers, vegetation and terrain, to the history, culture and humanities in the distance! Even the glorious past, or the unknown future, are not the same.
...It’s worth paying for this precious spot from the Shrine!”
Elder Xuan Yin spoke eloquently, and Gou Zimo's expression on the chair finally wavered, revealing unprecedented complex and sad emotions.
These words were like thousands of needles piercing his heart.
It can't kill people, but it can kill people's hearts.
Even Sun Mu on the side lowered his head unconsciously. Xuan Yin's few words had already denied everything about Changliu Hall.
Lin Lang nodded slightly.
No wonder Elder Xuan Yin directly took away the quota in Changliu Hall. No wonder Changliu's disciples lived in such a miserable life. They lacked a large number of weapons, pills, and skills. They had no chance to practice. Even their living conditions were only self-sufficient.
.
Now it seems that the senior officials of the shrine have completely given up on Changliu Hall. It is no wonder that the master of Changliu Hall and his disciples are in such misery.
"You must be new to Changliu Palace. Haha. Changliu Palace is such a place. Although the shrine cannot provide you with many resources, you have less fights and can live a comfortable life."
"Don't worry. Slowly, you will get used to this kind of life."
Elder Xuan Yin lowered his eyebrows, making it impossible to see his expression clearly.
Are you used to this kind of life...
Lin Lang clenched his fists.
Although he came to a place like Changliu Hall, no one around him made progress, and Master Gou Zimo took the lead in not doing anything. But he still hid in the house every day and practiced hard and seriously.
Lin Lang also believed that there must be such a person in Changliu Palace.
People who are unwilling to follow the crowd, unwilling to be comfortable, and are motivated.
But if the shrine continues to treat Choryuden like this, and the people underneath have no ability to change, those people will die there.
One of the thirty-six halls of the shrine, it sounds nice to say it. But it is the laughing stock in the eyes of all the other halls. The dignified master of the shrine has to bow down to apologize for his laughter when he comes here. He cannot get any respect from others, and he himself
There is no dignity at all.
Lin Lang couldn't figure out what exactly caused the current situation in Changliu Hall, but he couldn't sit still and wait for death.
Lin Lang had only been a member for a few days, and he said he wanted to speak out for the Changliu Palace, but he didn't believe it himself.
For yourself.
Yes, that's right.
Looking at Gou Zimo, who had never shown such a complicated expression, and Sun Mu, who looked heavy, Lin Lang realized that maybe things were not irreversible yet.
So Lin Lang made up his mind and said to Elder Xuanyin.
"I think what the palace is doing is inappropriate."
What the Shrine did was inappropriate.
These seven short words made all the palace masters present stay in place, and even Elder Xuan Yin was slightly stunned.
The majesty of the Shrine cannot be challenged, and the practices of the Shrine cannot be corrected by others.
What's more, this is the wish of the upper-level elders of the shrine, the disciples of the masters of each hall, and even some people who stay in the hall.
There is no need to do unnecessary things for Changliu. This is the consensus of everyone, and it has gradually become the tradition of Sun Yao Shrine.
Gou Zimo's body shook violently.
At some point, Elder Xuanyin had removed his control over him, but he just sat there with his whole body stretched straight and did not stop Lin Lang who was standing beside him.
"Young man, do you know what you are talking about? Could it be that we elders are not considering what you are considering?!"
Elder Xuanyin said, already releasing a touch of pressure.
This is not the pressure of momentum or realm, but the absolute detachment and confidence of someone who has been in a position of power for a long time.
Even the palace masters on the side had ugly expressions on their faces. No one dared to stand up and speak.
If he accidentally angers the one in front of him, any master of the thirty-six palaces will be a mortal in his eyes.
Just by meeting Elder Xuan Yin's eyes, Lin Lang felt like an ant in front of the mountain. He was so small and powerless. It was already a miracle that the mountain could hear his voice.
But that's enough.
Instead, Lin Lang took a step forward and worked hard to overcome the discomfort in his heart.
"You are right. The elders and senior officials of the shrine must have considered everything before making such a decision."
"You have considered the interests of the shrine, everyone's public opinion, and the value of the development of Changliu Hall. However, you have only failed to consider the feelings of us Changliu people."
"There are many of us who are willing to make progress, practice, and realize our own values. You have just ignored the feelings of these people."
"Today, I am speaking on behalf of these people! Elder, do you still think this is right? Or is it that the shrine has discovered that the higher-ups have made mistakes, but no one dares to stand up and correct them?
?!"
Lin Lang spoke calmly, but he felt very unsatisfied in his heart. He was also a disciple of the Sun Yao Shrine, and he was also a talented and ideal person. He should not be reduced to this just because he made some mistakes.
Humans are not like humans, and ghosts are not like ghosts. Gou Zimo's decadent appearance of drinking and engaging in prostitution all day long is a reflection, or a microcosm, of the future of Changliu Hall.
After Lin Lang said this, the palace masters on the side were all stunned.
Since the Emperor of Heaven came to power, there is absolutely no second person in Sun Yao Shrine who dares to talk to the elders like this.
This kid...is a little too courageous!
But what everyone didn't expect was that Elder Xuanyin didn't get angry. Instead, he held his belly and laughed.
"Hahahaha...hahahaha..."
Elder Xuanyin laughed so hard that he was out of breath, with tears squeezing out of the corners of his eyes, and everyone was confused.
"Okay, okay!"
"What you said is not unreasonable."
Hearing Elder Xuanyin's words, Lin Lang's eyes lit up.
"But...it lacks some convincing."
"Well... I haven't seen any of your so-called Changliu Hall disciples who are motivated, ideal and ambitious in all these years."
"I have been waiting for more than ten years for someone who dares to stand up and speak for Changliudian."
Xuanyin wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes, neither fully affirming nor completely denying Lin Lang's words. Instead, he had some appreciation for Lin Lang personally.
Lin Lang frowned, not knowing how to refute.
"Let me give you the simplest example. Look at the two people next to you."
"One is the master of Gouzimo Hall of Changliu Hall. He was so majestic in the past! During the heyday of Changliu Hall, his arrogance was as arrogant as anyone present! But what about now?? Hey
! Mud can’t hold up the wall..."
"Where's the guy next to you? If I remember correctly, his name should be Sun... Mu, right? He used to be the proud son of Fengjian Palace. But for the sake of a woman's departure, he was willing to fall to this level. Five years.
I haven’t made any progress in my cultivation during this time, and I feel embarrassed even if I say that I am a disciple of Sun Yao Shrine.”
Elder Xuanyin shook his head as he spoke. In the not-too-distant past, Changliu Hall was a place that everyone longed for. The master of the hall, Gou Zimo, was also full of courage and talent. In just a few years, he almost succeeded
Lead the Changliu Hall to the upper temple.
After hundreds of years of precipitation, the layout of the thirty-six temples in the shrine has long been fixed or even rigid. It is impossible to see the location of the temples moving for decades. But Gouzimo did it.
Under his leadership, Changliu Hall was at its peak and had a glorious past. Therefore, Elder Xuanyin was still very partial to Gou Zimo in his heart. It was a pity that something like that happened and made him give up on himself.
Gave up long-term stay.
After listening to Elder Xuanyin's words, Lin Lang fell silent.
Indeed, the two people next to him are typical representatives of Changliu Hall today. If people like them do not make changes, the attitude of the upper class towards Changliu will not change.
"So, you two don't have anything to say?"
Lin Lang patted Gou Zimo on the shoulder, but Gou Zimo still buried his head on the table, not even daring to raise his head.
Elder Xuanyin also sighed slightly.
"Hahaha, I didn't expect that a young disciple in Changliu Hall would be more ambitious and courageous than you! Gou Zimo, Gou Zimo, no wonder you let your disciples stand in your way twenty years ago
In front of me, I will die for you!"
After Shui Ziping, the master of Chunshui Palace, said these words, the entire palace immediately became quiet.
Shui Ziping looked around and realized that he had said something wrong. Just when he was about to explain something, he felt a murderous aura rising from the opposite side.
Lin Lang also took a few steps back in fright.
The Gou Zimo in front of him disappeared instantly, and then appeared in front of Shui Ziping.
Everyone felt a cold light flash in front of their eyes, and a cold sword came out from Gou Zimo's hand, slashing straight at Shui Ziping's neck. His eyes were like lightning, making people dare not look into them. His expression was also dull.
It was as if he had changed into a different person, revealing unprecedented coldness and arrogance.
The speed is so fast that people have no time to react.
Not to mention that Lin Lang didn't see clearly, almost no one among the more than 20 palace masters present could clearly see Gou Zimo's movements, and they could only feel the hair on their backs standing on end.
The two disciples behind Shui Ziping were so frightened that they sat on the ground.
This killing intent... is so terrifying!
But just when the sword blade just touched Shui Ziping's hair, Gou Zimo's body suddenly stopped. He couldn't cut downwards no matter what.
"If the elder wasn't here... I would kill you!!"
Gou Zimo's words were as cold as ice, causing bursts of cold sweat to break out on Shui Ziping's forehead. He struggled with his throat to say something. However, he found that under Gou Zimo's murderous intention, his body even
Hard to move!
We are both palace masters, so is the difference in strength so big?
Shui Ziping found it difficult to accept such a result. He must have been unprepared, it must be like this!! How could little Gouzimo ride on my head??!
Elder Xuanyin finally stood up at this time. He was the one who stopped Gou Zimo's behavior just now. Otherwise, Shui Ziping would have been crippled even if he didn't die!
"Okay, okay. We are all from the palace, why would you say such hurtful words? Zimo, you are the same. After so many years, your temper has not changed at all!"
Elder Xuanyin looked at Gou Zimo with burning eyes. He remembered that Gou Zimo was even more so when he was so high-spirited that he even dared to point his sword at the master of the upper temple.
Lin Lang looked at the performance of the two people in surprise.
Gou Zimo seemed to be hiding another side of his personality that was completely different from his current one. As for Elder Xuan Yin, although he was blaming the two palace masters, his eyes when he looked at Gou Zimo were a little different.
It’s like...appreciation??
Lin Lang started to look at this drunken master again. At least judging from his behavior and Elder Xuanyin's attitude towards him, he was definitely not what he is now! So what happened to make him fall?
So far?? He couldn't figure it out, so Lin Lang decided to ask the disciples of Changliu Hall after he went back.
Elder Xuanyin came out to smooth things over. Gouzi took several deep breaths before calming down the anger in his heart.
Then he took back the long sword in his hand, and his expression softened a lot. Just when he was about to walk back, he was grabbed by Shui Ziping.
"etc!!"
Shui Ziping, who suppressed the fear in his heart, suddenly became angry. What is his identity? The master of the Chunshui Palace! In front of so many people and so many palace masters, Gou Zimo almost wiped his neck? From now on.
Where else can I put my face?
"Um?"
Gou Zimo raised his eyes slightly and looked at Shui Ziping who was full of anger.
"Put the sword on my neck, and you just want to let it go??" Shui Ziping's face was a little ferocious. He couldn't swallow this tone so easily, especially when the target was Gou, who was despised by everyone in the palace.
Zimo!
"If you keep your mouth shut, I won't attack you. Get out of here!"
Gou Zimo said lightly, and then shook off Shui Ziping's arm.
However, this time Shui Ziping provoked Gou Zimo again, but Xuan Yin did not stop him.
