Chapter 107: Chapter 66: The Demons Hold a Meeting

Regarding Yin Sect Leader’s response, Qian Sanjiang didn’t dare to reply.

He knew he had misspoken.

Yin Sect Leader snorted. This Qian Sanjiang was still somewhat old-fashioned.

Since the last time they eliminated the Heavenly God Sect’s stronghold and the Ximen Family, and Fang Che credited the achievements to Su Yue, it became quite clear to Yin Sect Leader and others that the so-called beloved brother Su Yue had undoubtedly died long ago.

This was obvious.

Otherwise, Fang Che wouldn’t have been so bold as to leave a breach that could be exposed at any time.

This also meant that what Fang Che said in Bibo City about the ’beloved brother protecting the family fortunes’ was all sheer nonsense.

But on this matter, Yin Sect Leader didn’t say anything.

In his view, Yemo’s actions made perfect sense and were to be expected. What was the big deal about usurping a family’s assets?

Even when they had initially sent people to kill the entire Su Family, it had become very clear.

What was the use of a dead man’s name now?

It was an honor for Su Yue!

If we, the members of Wei Wo Zheng Sect, were still bound by those so-called virtues of benevolence and righteousness... how could we get anything done?

For one’s own sake, all living beings could be killed.

As for the bigger picture... that’s for the higher-ups to worry about.

Even I, the Yixin Sect Leader, don’t have the right to concern myself with the big picture, let alone Yemo...

Of course, right now he didn’t have time to reply to Fang Che.

Because Yin Sect Leader was in a meeting.

On the other side.

Heavenly God Sect Leader Kou Yifang, San Sheng Sect Leader Guan Shan Du, Mingguang Sect Leader Gu Shanfeng, and Yemo Sect Leader Hai Wuliang were all looking at him.

Now, the Inspector of Wei Wo Zheng Sect from the Southeast had convened the five sect leaders to come together to discuss matters.

Especially since recent events had been quite strange.

The long-planned attack by Yixin Sect was somehow inexplicably thwarted, and the seedlings of both San Sheng Sect and Heavenly God Sect, as well as their families, were bizarrely exposed.

All these events seemed to point to something unusual.

A meeting had to be held.

Therefore, under the convocation of the Southeast Patrol Envoy, the five major sect leaders gathered here to brainstorm and determine where the problem lay.

Just as they were talking back and forth, Yin Sect Leader received a message and even took it out to look at.

"Is Sect Leader Yin occupied with something?"

Yemo Sect Leader Hai Wuliang, looking at Yin Sect Leader, sneaked in a jab: "Perhaps you should attend to that first?"

Hai Wuliang wasn’t actually sensing anything; mainly, he and Yin Sect Leader had always been at odds, and the Yemo Sect was the biggest competitor to the Yixin Sect.

Now that the Inspector was here, and this guy dared be distracted? Who else but him should report this?

Yin Sect Leader felt somewhat guilty and sinisterly said: "This leader is just receiving a message. Does Sect Leader Hai really need to be so anxious?"

"With the Inspector still here, you start acting rashly, dealing with your petty and trivial affairs as if he doesn’t exist. Yin Sect Leader, you are clearly showing no respect for the Inspector, which is a crime of great disrespect!"

Yemo Sect Leader Hai Wuliang, always at odds with Yin Sect Leader, immediately pounced on the opportunity: "Sir, with such conduct from Yin Sect Leader, it’s clear he harbors wild ambitions and cannot be allowed to remain. I propose that he be stripped of his position for investigation!"

Yin Sect Leader was furious: "Hai Wuliang, have I desecrated your family’s tomb or something?"

"I cannot stand your disrespect towards the leader!"

Just as the two were about to start arguing.

The Inspector looked troubled.

He knew these two were always at odds.

He quickly intervened: "Stop it! Don’t argue. Our current priority is to think about how to deal with the situation at hand."

"Your five sects each had a presence and have recently been encountering frequent incidents, which must have a reason."

"How do you view the situation at Baiyun Martial Academy?"

Kou Yifang took a deep breath, his eyes flashing with fierceness, and said: "After I kill that Fang Che, I’ll cease my actions!"

Guan Shan Du also nodded: "I can’t let go until I kill that Fang Che."

Gu Shanfeng and Hai Wuliang curled their lips, somewhat reveling in schadenfreude, looking on with a cold eye as if saying, "Eh, it’s none of our business!"

"What does Sect Leader Yin think?" The Inspector, non-committal, turned to ask Yin Sect Leader.

Yin Sect Leader pondered for a moment and said: "I actually think that the directions taken by the two sect leaders are a bit off. Perhaps we should temporarily give up on Baiyun Martial Academy."

"How so?" Both Kou Yifang and Guan Shan Du were perplexed.

"That Fang Che must be a genius of the Guardian, but oddly enough, he lives outside, and furthermore, the significant events of both sects were oddly ruined by his hands..."

Yin Shen Palace said, "How could there be no reason behind this? It’s one thing if the plan had simply failed, but to have the would-be assassins discovered and have the family exposed, that’s even more bizarre."

"You think about it, is it not because he lives outside that you wanted to kill him, right? Ask yourselves, would they allow such a genius to live outside if they weren’t absolutely certain of their capability to protect him?"

Yin Shen Palace had the look of a wise man, "How obvious is this!"

The two Sect Hierarchs looked uneasy but slowly nodded their heads.

The words of Yin Shen Palace made a lot of sense.

"Therefore, I believe... that this Fang Che, fundamentally speaking, is just bait. There is only one reason for placing him there: to provoke our hatred and lure us into attempting to kill him."

"With the Guardian Hall of Bibo City filled with experts like clouds and the massive presence of the Martial Arts Academy, no matter how many people we send, they can handle it."

"Moreover, they can also ensure Fang Che’s survival; as long as we seek revenge, they can easily set a trap at any time and place, using such bait to kill our people in batches."

"Because, if Huo Churan were truly one of their own, they would definitely not attempt an assassination, right? So your people are doomed to be exposed in batches, a group goes and a group dies. If we continue, the outcome will be the same. This is for sure. Even if we send someone of Monarch Level, it is still the same!"

Yin Shen Palace pondered deeply and said, "Eliminating geniuses like guardians is something we in the Yixin Sect have done quite a bit, but this time... we will not participate. Even if the San Sheng Sect and the Heavenly God Sect wish to continue, our Yixin Sect does not want to meddle in these muddy waters."

"It’s too dangerous! It’s like seeking one’s own death! Falling into their net willingly!"

Yin Shen Palace concluded.

Kou Yifang and Guan Shan Du’s faces changed dramatically.

They nodded slowly, "Brother Yin... makes a valid point."

And the Inspector looked at Yin Shen Palace with eyes full of appreciation and admiration, nodding slowly, "Sect Leader Yin’s words are reasonable; please continue."

"Thank you for the praise, my lord."

Yin Shen Palace bowed respectfully and said, "In my view, a mere Fang Che, with only Wuzhong cultivation, no matter how much of a genius he is, what can he really achieve? To reach the Heavenly Weapons Ranking, wouldn’t it take hundreds of years?"

"Why obsess over such a small fry? Even if he could cover the sky with one hand in the future, is it necessary to send people to their deaths in his trap right now?"

"To involve the forces of two major sects over a talented student, even alarm the Sect Hierarchs... how foolish."

"Not touching him for five years, what does it matter? After five years without any action, how much vigilance will they retain? Once Fang Che leaves the Martial Arts Academy after five years and takes up a post elsewhere, any one of us could easily crush him!"

"A mere five years for him to struggle to improve, how far can he get? Could he become invincible? Even if he reaches Emperor Level, isn’t he still easily crushed?"

"Why insist on acting now? By that time, what grudges can’t be avenged?"

Yin Shen Palace sighed deeply and said earnestly, "I urge the two Sect Hierarchs to think thrice. Matters concern the great enterprise of the Main Sect for a thousand autumns; we must not act rashly."

The two men nodded silently.

Yin Shen Palace said, "Take our sect for instance, we suffered a setback at Tiexue Palace, which indeed seems suspicious, but... with the world being so vast, is there only one Tiexue Palace? Why be fixated on one moment, one place?"

"The future will surely present opportunities for us to do whatever we wish."

Yin Shen Palace spoke confidently, "Just like Hai Sect Leader of the Yemo Sect, who knows only jealousy and the destruction of talent, resorting to extreme measures to strike and scheme against us, do I really have to respond? The innocent clear themselves, that’s all. Hai Wuliang’s ranting like a rabid dog, I don’t even bother to care!"

Speaking to this point, Yin Shen Palace addressed the Inspector, "My lord, I have been contemplating over these years why our sect has developed so slowly? I finally know the reason; it is because of people like Hai Wuliang. They bully their own kind and endlessly scheme against their own people, but when facing outsiders, they are nothing but spineless, worthless cowards. I recommend eliminating such scum to cleanse the atmosphere of our Main Sect."

Hai Wuliang became furious, "Yin Shen Palace, what nonsense are you spouting?"

Yin Shen Palace remained composed and fearless, "What’s wrong, did I speak falsely about you? Your despicable scheming against me just now, could the Inspector not see your malicious intent? See your wolfish ambitions? It’s just that we have not bothered with you. We have thrown you aside like a pile of dog feces, when a mad dog barks, do people really need to argue back?"

Hai Wuliang was nearly exploding with rage!

But, he found himself at a loss for words.

Indeed, he was purposefully finding fault just now.

"You’re the dog feces! You’re the mad dog! Your whole family are mad dogs! Yin Shen Palace, you motherf..."

He stopped mid-sentence because the disapproving gaze of the Inspector had turned towards him.

At this crucial juncture, one more word was one more mistake.

He could only swallow his anger begrudgingly.

The Southeast Patrol Envoy scolded, "Sect Leader Hai, so eager for internal strife?"

Hai Wuliang held back his breath in his chest, almost exploding, but he said in a subdued voice, "I wouldn’t dare."

Inside, Yin Shen Palace was extremely proud.

I am truly a genius of an era.

Yin Shen Palace was inwardly pleased.

Originally wondering how to protect Yemo, and now, without having to expose anything, the problem was perfectly resolved.

Furthermore, Hai Wuliang was suppressed, and at the same time, Kou Yifang and Guan Shan Du were put in their place, all the while owing him another favor.

Within the Five Sects of the Southeast, his own Yixin Sect had subtly secured a leading position.

And in the heart of the Inspector, the impression was set: someone who "sees the bigger picture, cares for the greater good, plans without oversight, and schemes far-reaching."

What was most valuable was the hat placed on Hai Wuliang.

Leaving a very bad impression on the Inspector!

It was a stroke of genius!

With this move, I and my Yixin Sect were winning big.
