The Supreme Martial King Shocking All Realms
Chapter 1983 - Chapter 1983 Chapter 1979 Strict Punishment_1

Chapter 1983: Chapter 1979: Strict Punishment_1 Chapter 1983: Chapter 1979: Strict Punishment_1 He could not tolerate any of this.

In his eyes, no matter how great Yang Chen was, he was still an outsider to the sect, and when it was critical, he should submit to his command within the Cloud Sky Sect.

He wanted to be above Yang Chen, only then would he be satisfied.

Once Yang Chen became a Guest Elder, he would no longer be in charge, instead, it would be Yang Chen. In addition to the Moon Zither Saintess’s involvement, he could not let this happen. In his eyes, the Moon Zither Saintess belonged to him, and he could not let her go.

Yang Chen’s appearance made him feel a strong threat, and he had long wanted to get rid of Yang Chen. How could he tolerate Yang Chen having such an enormous status and promotion?

It must be said that Guangsheng was overthinking.

If Yang Chen knew what Guangsheng was thinking, he would definitely think that Guangsheng had a problem with his brain. He never intended to cause trouble for Guangsheng, nor did he compete with Guangsheng.

Even he did not take Guangsheng seriously. As for the matter with Moon Zither Saintess, Yang Chen does not think he will develop feelings for her.

But who would have thought that Guangsheng would pick a fight with him at this time?

Yang Chen did not speak, and the other powerful Palace Masters could not sit still.

Hundred Yin Venerable shouted angrily, “Guangsheng, what do you mean!”

Guangsheng saw his master questioning him and tasted fear in an instant. He knew that without a reasonable explanation, he would not be treated lightly today.

But since he had already stepped forward, he had a prepared statement, “Master, as well as the Martial Uncles and Martial Aunts here, I admit that my words might be a little reckless, but I absolutely disagree with Yang Yi becoming a Guest Elder. In our Cloud Sky Sect, it is an extremely sacred position. Anyone who can become a Guest Elder of our Cloud Sky Sect is either a loose cultivator Nirvana Stage expert who has made immense contributions to our sect or a loyal Enlightenment Realm expert to our Cloud Sky Sect.”

“As for Yang Yi, what virtue and ability does he have? With True God Stage strength, he has just arrived not long ago in our Cloud Sky Sect and is now taking on the role of Guest Elder. You know, I, Guangsheng, have devoted so much time to the Cloud Sky Sect, fighting tirelessly for the sect and achieving countless merits, yet even now, I haven’t even earned an Elder position.”

“Fine, let’s not talk about my merits, but each of us here has contributed a lot to the sect, and it’s difficult for us to earn a position. So why does Yang Yi get the Guest Elder title like it’s a handout? It’s not fair to us; it’s not fair to everyone!”

Yang Yi’s statement did touch on a critical point.

That is to incite and fan the flames.

He ignited the emotions of many people and then led other people to start discussing, controlling a sufficient amount of public opinion.

Once that public opinion was controlled, he would have essentially gained control of many invisible forces.

Now many people were indeed being incited by Guangsheng.

“Yes, what makes him so special? I have contributed a lot within the sect, so why does Yang Yi get to become a Guest Elder just like that? Wouldn’t that be denying all of our contributions?”

“I will not allow it, if Yang Yi becomes a Guest Elder, then what have I been doing in the Cloud Sky Sect for all these years?”

“It’s unfair.”

A group of people started discussing, making Guangsheng’s expression become increasingly delighted.

He knew that as long as he controlled the public opinion, not even the Nirvana Stage experts could ignore the opinions of the others just for Yang Chen.

But Yang Chen thought Guangsheng was out of his mind.

Indeed, controlling public opinion seemed like a clever tactic, and those Nirvana Stage experts would not ignore the opinions of others because of Yang Chen.

However, Guangsheng forgot that those who truly control the truth have always been in the minority.

Those onlookers are now being incited and emotional, and they could turn against Guangsheng in the blink of an eye, accusing him of being a wallflower, which is meaningless.

Guangsheng’s biggest mistake was to go against the choices of several Nirvana Stage experts at this critical moment. This was a slap in the face of those Nirvana Stage experts.

Maybe Guangsheng didn’t notice it, but Yang Chen saw it clearly. Now these Nirvana Stage experts were angry, and they were trying their best to suppress the anger in their hearts.

But Guangsheng didn’t even realize it, and Yang Chen couldn’t help but feel sorry for him.

Guangsheng was pleased with his control of public opinion, “Martial Uncles and Martial Aunts, you should have seen it as well. Most people are not particularly supportive of Yang Yi becoming a Guest Elder…”

“Shut up!” The Nine Heavens Palace Master’s voice was cold, “Guangsheng, do you still respect me as your Martial Uncle?”

Guangsheng was stunned, “Martial uncle, you…”

“Hmph, you want to use the merit system to determine positions? I’ll tell you, you guys have indeed contributed a lot to the Cloud Sky Sect over the years, but does the total contributions equal the enormous contribution Yang Yi brought to the sect just once?”

“I appreciate the trivial things you all do for the sect, but I apologize, these tasks are something anyone can do. Can any of you do what Yang Yi did for the sect? As long as you can, I will immediately promote you three levels and personally take you as a disciple, training you to become the future Young Sect Master!” shouted the Nine Heavens Palace Master.

With that one statement, everyone’s fire was extinguished.

Yes, who among them could do what Yang Chen did?

One statement made them find psychological comfort. What were they unhappy about? Because Yang Chen could do things that none of them could do. In that case, why would Yang Chen not be entitled to a better position?

The Nine Heavens Palace Master had lived for so many years, and it would be a strange thing if he couldn’t suppress this wind direction.

He said, “Furthermore, it is even more foolish to judge one’s position based on the time spent within the sect. Is there anyone here who has been in the sect longer than this seat, but whose cultivation level is terrible? Are you saying that I, the Sect Leader, should give up my seat? What a joke!”

When Guangsheng heard this, he knew things were terrible because fewer and fewer people were supporting him, while more and more people were accusing him.

“Guangsheng is really too much, inciting and fanning the flames, almost making me think that Yang Yi has done something wrong.”

“What’s wrong with Yang Yi? The last time Yang Yi made a move, he defended the face of our Cloud Sky Sect, and this time, he might be able to seize control for our Cloud Sky Sect. Why shouldn’t we be grateful to him? And for what reason could he not hold a higher position?”

Guangsheng’s heart thumped, knowing that he was bound to suffer some punishment.

As expected, Hundred Yin Venerable said at this moment, “Sect Leader, this sinful person dares to talk nonsense. I will punish him severely. Someone, take him away.”
