Seeing that everyone had laid their cards on the table, the Great Elder decided not to pretend anymore. He slammed the table and stood up.
“Young man, don’t be too arrogant!”
“Back then, when seniors like us were pouring our blood and sweat for the Heaven Earth Sect, all of you were still little kids!”
“Qingyue, I’ll stop here today. If you want to monopolize that treasure, don’t blame the three of us for falling out!”
After saying this last sentence, the Great Elder suddenly flicked his sleeves and turned to leave.
Seeing this, the Fourth Elder and the Eighth Elder also snorted coldly and stood up to leave.
After completely walking away, the Eighth Elder asked with lingering fear, “Great Elder, isn’t it not good for us to fall out with that b*tch like this?”
“After all, that batch’s strength is still unknown.”
“If you’re not confident, you’ll always feel uneasy.”
When he recalled the scene of Xiao Qingyue killing everyone that day, the Eighth Elder’s face was filled with worry.
The Great Elder was actually a little uncertain, but when he thought of how he did not have much life span left, his eyes immediately became firm.
“Don’t panic. The reason that she was so brave that day was most likely because she used some secret medicine or secret technique. She could only temporarily increase her strength at a huge price.”
“And now, it should be very difficult for her to unleash that strength again.”
“Otherwise, with her personality, she would most likely not be able to help herself when we laid our cards on the table.”
“But think about it. When we laid our cards on the table just now, that b*tch didn’t even dare to let out a fart. She only dared to let her subordinates speak. This means that she’s still filled with fear of us.”
The Great Elder said logically, but in fact, he did not dare to believe everything.
However, he had no choice. In order to obtain that treasure and reach the Soul Formation realm, he could only choose to take the risk.
The other two elders did the same and did not say anything else.
In the conference room.
Xiao Qingyue sat on the main seat, her entire face dark.
Just now, the Great Elder had directly fallen out with her and threatened her in public, causing her Sect Master to lose all her dignity and face.
“Sect Master, that old man was so disrespectful to you just now. Why didn’t you directly suppress him and use him as a warning to the others?”
The elder of the Treasure Herb Hall asked angrily and in confusion.
His protective behavior seemed to be because he was unhappy for Xiao Qingyue, but in fact, he was also secretly testing Xiao Qingyue.
He wanted to use the method of reading people’s expressions to test if the strength Xiao Qingyue displayed that day was special or normal.
Xiao Qingyue was naturally not stupid to be able to become the Sect Master of the Heaven Earth Sect.
She knew why the elder of the Hundred Herb Hall asked this, so she explained to him,
“The three of them are Senior Elders of the Heaven Earth Sect after all. We have to give them some face that they should have. We can’t be too ruthless.” “Otherwise, it will be detrimental to the stability of the sect.”
“However, if the next three people are still so stubborn, don’t blame me for not being as polite anymore.”
After saying this last sentence, Xiao Qingyue did not give her subordinates a chance to ask again. She directly left the sect’s meeting room with a thought.
She had no choice. She was not Chen An. She could not do what he did and suppress everyone alone.
Therefore, in the face of the elders’ falling out and the confusion of her subordinates, she could only choose to leave a little aggrievedly, lest she expose the fact that she was lacking in confidence if she stayed for too long.
Heaven and Earth Palace, in the Sect Master’s cave abode.
Xiao Qingyue was frustrated. As soon as she returned to her room, she took off all her clothes and lay on the bed. She wanted to close her eyes and rest for a moment to relieve all the troubles she had encountered today.
However, when people calmed down, the troubles in their hearts would only be magnified infinitely. They would keep thinking about it. The more they thought about it, the angrier they became. The more they thought about it, the angrier they became. When they thought about it, they would become extremely uncomfortable.
How annoying!
‘Those old fogeys only knew how to cultivate in seclusion in the past. I, the Sect Master, am in charge of everything!’
‘Now that he saw that there were benefits, he wanted to forcefully interfere and take a share!’
‘How shameless!’
‘No, I’m just a puppet Sect Master. Why should 1 be so angry?’
‘That treasure belonged to that thief, and the true Sect Master position was also his. These troubles should be annoying him. He could not stay behind the scenes and enjoy the fruits of his labor!’
Xiao Qingyue suddenly thought it through and sat up from the bed. She took out the voice transmission talisman that she had exchanged contact details with Chen An and sent him a voice transmission.
“Someone doesn’t know the immensity of heaven and earth and wants to snatch the treasure left behind by your ancient Heaven and Earth Xuanhuang Sect.”
“Who?”
Chen An replied almost instantly.
Xiao Qingyue continued to transmit her voice, “Great Elder, Fourth Elder, Eighth Elder.”
Chen An asked, “Just the three of them?”
Xiao Qingyue replied, “Yes.”
After a moment of silence, Chen An mercilessly attacked.
“You can’t even handle these three people well. You even have to trouble me, the person behind the scenes who’s in charge of enjoying the results. You’re really a lousy Sect Master.”
“You…!”
Xiao Qingyue was furious.
Chen An felt that she wanted to work but did not put in any effort, so he frightened her and said,
“If you can’t even do such a small thing well, 1’11 change the position of Sect Master to someone else. You can be a vase in the future.”
Xiao Qingyue fell silent for a moment.
Chen An was right.
She just wanted to work but not do her best and could not bear to see Chen An reap the fruits of her labor.
Seeing that she was silent, Chen An quickly said again..
