Although Liao Yan's words were low-pitched, they were like a bolt from the blue. As soon as he said them, there was a sudden silence all around!
And it’s a bit eerily quiet!
Then everyone present, including the five elders, looked at each other in shock, some of them unable to believe their ears.
The words expected to push this event to a climax were not spoken by Liao Yan. What followed was... such an abrupt expulsion order!
how so?!
For a moment, everyone was puzzled and their eyes turned to Liao Yan in the center of the VIP table.
"Sect Master, this..." Old Man Situ Chuan was the first to stand up and hesitated when he stepped forward. However, before the old man could speak, he was mercilessly interrupted by Sect Leader Liao Yan.
"The meaning of this seat has been decided, no need to say more!" Sect leader Liao Yan finally looked a little ugly, and every move he made was abnormal. Then he looked around at the guests and repeated what he said before: "Everyone, please come back.
!”
This time, people who came from all over the place finally lost their composure, especially those important people within a hundred miles of the VIP table. They all looked embarrassed, as if someone had slapped their ears in front of them.
However, due to the power of Liuyun Sect and Liao Yan, although these old monsters were full of complaints, they did not dare to argue face to face. After pondering for a few breaths, someone finally came forward angrily and said goodbye to the top management of Liuyun Sect.
Leave.
"Since it's inconvenient for you, I'll take my leave first!" The bearded leader of the horse gang was the first to walk up to Liao Yan, bowed his hands, and then led his men out of the square dejectedly. Chaozong
Walk along the mountain road under the door.
"Sect Master Liao, see you later!" The head of the Zhao family also led the people away. When he left, he was somewhat embarrassed.
"See you soon, Master Liao!" The old woman from the Feng family showed some resentment on her face when she left, perhaps because she was a female.
"The green mountains will never change and the green waters will always flow. Sect Leader Liao will cherish it!"
"There are many disturbances today. I will hide the village and prepare a generous gift for a visit another day. See you soon, Master Liao!"
"Okay, let's go too..."
…
In just a few dozen breaths, a large area of VIP seats was vacated, and a moment later, almost everyone except the Liuyun Sect members had left.
It can be said that everyone was disgraced by leaving in this way. However, under the constraints of Liuyun Sect's power and past friendship, although these people left in a very embarrassed manner, they did not cause trouble. At most, they were somewhat honest.
People who are upset only speak with some obscure dissatisfaction.
But there is no doubt that after today, Liuyun Sect's influence within a hundred miles radius will suffer a big blow. After all, among the people Liao Yan "driven away" just now, there are many well-known people within a hundred miles radius.
Big shots, Liao Yan made them lose face like that, no matter how generous they are, they will still have grudges in the future.
"Deacon Fei, please take people to disperse the people outside the square and ask them to leave the Yunwu Mountains immediately..." In front of the collapsed arena, Liao Yan sighed helplessly and ordered Deacon Fei behind him that the matter was over. Things are ultimately irreparable.
Fortunately, the five elders and some senior members of the sect were all reasonable and thoughtful people, and they did not mess around. They all stood quietly where they were.
As time went by, they gradually realized that a major event seemed to have happened in the sect just now. If it hadn't been the case, Liao Yan, who had always kept the sect in order, would not have driven people away unreasonably and made such a move. As for actions that may damage the sect's prestige...
"Junior brother, our Liuyun Sect seems to be in trouble." In the corner of the VIP table, Qi Zheng frowned slightly. Even though he was gentle and elegant, he had worries on his face at this moment.
But this is not surprising. Qi Zheng has been an elder of the Liuyun Sect since he was a child and has long regarded this place as his home, so his feelings for him are naturally deep.
"Maybe that's really the case..." Beside Qi Zheng, Shen Chen sighed. His face didn't look too strange, but in his heart, there was already a storm, and the deacon ran away in a panic. After arriving, for some reason, Shen Chen had a very bad premonition, as if something was about to happen.
Soon, the villagers within a hundred miles who came to watch the grand competition of Liuyun Sect were driven away by Deacon Fei. Due to the large number of people, Shen Chen and the others stood in front of Zixia Palace and looked around. , there were already queues of people on the mountain roads going down the mountain. Shen Chen could even see the figures of Wang Hao and Wang Zixin, one old and one young. The two of them were forced to leave, while they kept looking back. The eldest brother He came from far away, but in the end he didn't meet Shen Chen. Wang Yue was somewhat unwilling to meet him.
Watching this scene from a distance, Wang Yue was very anxious at the foot of the stone steps, but he couldn't change anything. There were too many people coming down the mountain. Even if he chased them, he couldn't squeeze in front of the old and the young.
"Okay, now all disciples listen to my order and enter the Zixia Palace. I have something important to announce!"
After the outsiders left, Liao Yan spoke again, his voice loud and deep, reaching everyone's ears.
And his words immediately rekindled a little hope in the hearts of many people. The sect master said that he wanted to announce an important thing, could it be that thing... Many disciples were thinking this way, but they were a little uncomfortable. Understand, why would my sect master announce such a good thing behind closed doors...
However, some elders of the sect, such as the five elders, are not as optimistic as they are. Anyone with a discerning eye can see that when Liao Yan said those words just now, his tone was very serious. It was definitely not like he was going to announce something good. .
"Sect Master, is it because of me..." At this time, Shen Chen also walked up behind Liao Yan and asked in a low voice.
I don't know why, but he became more and more uneasy, always feeling that some disaster was about to happen...
"Hey, brat, you should quickly enter the Zixia Palace. Don't ask any more questions. I will handle it myself!" Liao Yan sighed and looked at Shen Chen with a somewhat complicated look.
When Shen Chen heard this, he immediately didn't know what to say. He turned around and followed a group of disciples towards the Zixia Palace.
"Deacon Fei, please take someone to inspect the places where disciples, disciples live and frequent activities, and try not to make any mistakes. I need one stick of incense for all disciples, no matter who they are, to come to Zixia Palace!" Liao Yan then turned his attention to Deacon Fei, who had already returned after leading people to disperse the onlookers.
"Yes!" Deacon Fei nodded respectfully, and then led many people to search around.
"Let's go in too." After Deacon Fei left, Liao Yan looked at the five elders and several hall masters and sighed, "I hope that by doing this, I will not become a sinner of Liuyun Sect..."
Hearing such sighs and following Liao Yan towards Zixia Palace, the five elders and others all looked at each other with heavy hearts.
……………
Zixia Palace is the largest building built since the Liuyun Sect was founded. It looks like a large temple on the outside, but inside, it is also magnificent, with a space supported by dozens of large pillars, with a space of nearly It is more than a hundred feet wide and more than ten feet long. It can accommodate thousands of people at a time, which is no problem.
And here, it has always been a specific place where the sect's senior officials announce important decisions or hold some grand events. The monthly distribution of body tempering pills to the disciples is also done here. However, right now, in the lobby of Zixia Palace, The atmosphere seemed a bit tense and heavy.
In just one stick of incense, almost all the disciples of the Liuyun Sect had arrived. Thousands of faces were all nervously looking at the sect leader Liao Yan standing in the middle of the hall with his hands behind his hands, quietly waiting for the sect leader to announce the "big event". "…
"Is everyone here?" The time for burning incense passed quickly. Liao Yan took a long breath, then turned around with a heavy face and asked Deacon Fei next to him.
"For the information of the sect master, as long as the disciples who have not come down from the mountain are all here!" Deacon Fei replied respectfully. Just after the competition, most of the people in the sect have not dispersed in the square. This is actually a process for him to inspect. A lot more relaxed.
"Okay! Next, I will announce something. Everyone in the sect, no matter who they are, will listen to me. If there is any violation, the sect rules will be severely punished!" Liao Yan's eyes narrowed and he looked around at the same time. , the tone of voice was also raised a few points, and an unprecedented aura erupted from the whole person, and the strength of the twelfth level of the Blood Fusion Realm was fully revealed.
Many disciples in the sect were so frightened that they shivered. They had never seen this sect leader be so severe.
"Sect Master, just say it doesn't matter. I will give you my full support!" Old man Situ Chuan stood up on behalf of the five elders at this time. They had already sensed the seriousness of the situation. If they, as the five elders, did not agree with Liao at this time, If Yan works together, the other disciples will be even more difficult to restrain.
"We all listen to the orders of the sect master, no one dares to disobey!"
As expected, as soon as Situ Chuan finished speaking, the disciples and disciples around him responded one after another.
"Very good. From now on, I want you to remember something... Our Liuyun Sect does not have Shen Chen. No matter in front of anyone, you must remember this!"
Liao Yan's voice was like thunder, shaking the hearts of everyone present. However...compared to the voice that Liao Yan forced out with all his blood, it was the words he said that made everyone present stunned and dumbfounded.
What happened to Shen Chen? Why did the sect master suddenly deny his existence? And the whole sect was kept secretive about it. Could it be that he had caused some big trouble outside... For a time, similar questions filled almost everyone present. A person's brain.
"Sect Master, there is no need for this. I understand your kindness, Shen Chen, let me go!" At this time, Shen Chen also stepped forward, looking at Liao Yan in a calm voice.
Now that things have come to this, how could he still not know what happened? What Shen Chen didn't expect was that the people from Nether Palace... would come so quickly! It seems that the news of the old guy's death caused quite a stir there. …
And when he thought of that behemoth that even he, the direct descendant of a wealthy family, had no choice but to leave his hometown and flee, Shen Chen felt chills in his heart, from head to toe. He knew that if he continued to stay here, what would happen to Liuyun Sect? For this ordinary small sect, it will be an unbearable catastrophe!
In the past few months, all the things that have happened around him have given Shen Chen a strong sense of belonging to this small sect. He never wants to see such a scene. Even if he dies, he cannot harm these things that have great influence on him. Kind person.
"Haha... brat, you can't leave. That person from the Netherworld Palace has already arrived at the back mountain of Yunlan Peak. If the deacon hadn't been so smart and pretended to be crazy, you now... I'm afraid your head would have been in a different place..." Liao Yan Secretly whispering in Shen Chen's ears, he reminded him with a wry smile.
"Forget it, let me handle it. Such a strategy of concealing the truth, if handled well, maybe your kid can still have a chance of survival," Liao Yan then sent a message to Shen Chen, "Otherwise, do you think you can run away?" What..."
Shen Chen was silent, the Liuyun Sect was located at the foot of Yunlan Peak, with bottomless abyss on both sides. The back mountain had been blocked, and there were only three ways to go down the mountain in front. If the other party knew of his existence, they would just summon him With manpower, it would be easy to hunt him down.
At this time, Liao Yan had already started his plan to conceal the truth without any explanation. He looked at the disciples around him and said solemnly: "I hope you will bear in mind what I just said. Someone will come to ask about Shen Chen's whereabouts later. This has nothing to do with you, just pretend you don’t know him!"
Then, Liao Yan turned his attention to the deacon who came down to report before, and said calmly: "Where are they?"
"Waiting in the lecture hall at the top of Yunlan Peak." The deacon said respectfully.
"Okay, the five elders will follow me up to meet with them for a while. The rest of them will do whatever they have to do. Again, if anyone leaks the news, don't blame me for being ruthless!"
A murderous look appeared in Liao Yan's eyes, and then he turned around and walked towards the outside of Zixia Palace. Seeing this, the five elders followed him with solemn expressions.
But at the same place, Shen Chen's eyes were red, his chest seemed to be blocked by something, and he couldn't speak. Liao Yan's plan of concealing the truth was very risky, and he could only pray silently in his heart that nothing would go wrong.
