I stared at He You Tian blankly.
His aura is still high, and his strength remains so strong.
It's still faintly visible that his eye tail has added some fine wrinkles. During this period, He You Tian has become much older.
He may have been in seclusion and relinquished his powers, but the effort he had put in was still considerable.
For the Si Guo Mountain, He You Tian has paid too much.
Even before, when he blocked that blade for the second elder, it was also for the benefit of the Si Guo Mountain... It was to preserve the second elder's dignity.
The reason why I had to step in, even if the second elder did not agree, I would still challenge forcefully... It was to make everyone shut up and accept my return.
If the second elder could not easily receive it, his dignity and honor would certainly be tarnished.
He You Tian, however, defused everything.
The second elder's dignity has been preserved, and thus the facts are established.
"Bang!" I kneel heavily on the ground, my voice choking and trembling: "Shen Shen, greet Master Brother!"
This is not kneeling to anyone at the Si Guo Mountain; I am kneeling to He You Tian!
He You Tian stunned, he slightly shook his head, and his eyes were full of compassion.
"Your child, even if some mistakes are made, are just small mistakes, why should you kneel down?"
"It's okay to admit the mistake. Kneeling down would make it seem like I'm too strict." He You Tian reached out to help me up.
I took off the chestnut-colored jar I was carrying on my shoulder and threw it directly outside!
Songs room's limbless and broken body fell in front of me with a splash. It was covered with symbols, stopping the blood flow.
The head of Song Fang rolled and rolled to He You Tian's feet.
"On the day of the disappearance of Xian Shen, he caused the Si Guo Mountain to bear an undeserved burden, and placed an unequal burden on Master Brother. Therefore, Xian Shen should kneel."
"This person, is in a blood feud with Master Brother. Xian Shen will personally kill him! Particularly the return of the body, please Master Brother check it out!"
My voice was choked with emotion.
He You Tian's face froze for a moment, he widened his eyes, and stared fixedly at Song Fang's head!
The monks in the scene all started to whisper and discuss who the dead person was.
There are still people who are discussing non-stop, about my previous strength being so powerful, even though I used the Summoning Four Divine Beings spell to enhance it. I was able to match the second elder in terms of aura, despite using the increase in strength that it brought. My understanding of my cultivation is at what level? I have improved so greatly in just a few months. How could this be possible?
He You Tian remained silent for a long time.
Apart from the eyes of these disciples and the elders, I noticed another set of eyes.
It was from a very distant position, the location where He You Tian had appeared previously.
A figure in white stood silently there, long flowing hair blowing gently in the breeze, and a calm countenance.
Si Yan.
He You Tian's arrival is related to the commotion I caused, and perhaps it is also related to Si Yan.
"Xian Shen, you can get up."
He You Tian finally spoke.
I slowly stood up.
"He You Tian asked, "Little Brother, Xian Shen has returned to the Mountain Gate. Are you, have any objection?"
Even as the Second Elder serves as the Acting True Man, He You Tian's question seemed to imply that He You Tian was more like the True Man in charge of the sect.
"I heard everything that Xian Shen said."
"Since Gucheng has not made a move, Yunjin Mountain has provided a guarantee, Juqu Mountain has also, under the reminder of Xian Shen, eliminated the trouble of plague and evil spirits. Xian Shen has done so many things outside that he has made my Si Guo Mountain famous."
"So, Xian Shen should not be questioned. He should be properly welcomed and entertained upon his return."
"Hm, as for the twin monk that Xian Shen mentioned, it is indeed necessary to invite them to sit in the mountain door. According to Xian Shen's intention, Tian Shou Dao Ren's head should be sent as a gift of Xian Shen bringing him home. That head they cannot appropriate privately, but if they have already sent it and some disciple has intercepted it, what calculation is the disciple making? It is worth pondering."
"Perhaps, it's not definite that the twin monk really said Xian Shen was the one who ordered the killing of Tian Shou Dao Ren. They might have left a bigger face for themselves in the public eye."
He You Tian's words were more coherent and reasonable.
At this time, Xiang Ke stumbled and stumbled towards us.
"It's a blood letter! It's the blood letter of Zhu Xiang Dao Ren!" He handed the letter respectfully to He You Tian.
"Brother Second, this is a letter from Tang Wu Tian to you. Please read it."
He You Tian did not reach out to take it.
The Second Elder, slightly panting, took the tiny piece of cloth from Xiang Ke's hand.
"What did Tang Wu Tian write?" He You Tian suddenly asked.
"Reverend Meng and Er Laureate, please read, my name is Tang Wu. I wrote this letter to display my godly intentions, I have no evil intentions. I am not an outsider of Si Guo Mountain. Yunjin Mountain vouches for me. If anything happens to me upon my return to Si Guo Mountain, Si Guo Mountain can ask Yunjin Mountain for an account. Old Man Tang Wu will give Si Guo Mountain an account."
The scene was even more tumultuous.
The faces of the elders gradually revealed a sense of shame.
He You Tian slightly closed his eyes, looking equally complex, shaking his head and said: "Little Brother of Si Guo Mountain, to return to the mountain gate, needs a vow from a fellow Daoist sect. This cold heartedness will hurt Little Brother's feelings and this shameful act will tarnish the soul of Meng Yi ancestor in heaven."
"Today's matter, Xian Shen is at fault for his recklessness."
"Brothers and sisters, your mistakes lie in being conservative and inflexible."
"I do not want to hear anything that hinders the unity of Si Guo Mountain."
"All, disperse."
He You Tian raised his hand and waved his sleeves to dispel the crowd!
Throughout the entire process, He You Tian did not spare a glance at Wu Ling.
From the beginning to the end of He You Tian's appearance, Wu Ling dared not say a word. He had been hiding behind the Fourth Elder the whole time.
Just like... a mouse afraid to show its light.
At that time, Sun Zhuo was at least brave enough to do anything openly. At least, the surface work of Sun Zhuo was done extremely well, leaving no room for criticism.
Wu Ling, however, made mistakes everywhere.
I did not speak about anything else. As for the old Gong giving Wu Ling a big gift, and when the twin monks were invited, some petty behaviors he would naturally expose it to everyone.
Wu Ling was too confident. After stepping on me, he thought he had completely expelled me from Si Guo Mountain, and that's why he dared to do such things.
Overconfidence often leads to consequences that are difficult to bear.
Shortly after, the disciples dispersed.
Even the elders left.
Only He You Tian, myself, and Xiang Ke remained on the steps.
"Xiang Ke, why don't you leave? Are you afraid of the third Elder punishing you?" He You Tian asked.
"No...No..." Xiang Ke denied it immediately.
After that, as if he had taken a huge burden off his chest, he said, "I've been guarding the mountain gate. The subsequent punishment would just be being expelled from the mountain, but I wasn't expelled before. Little Brother has returned and displayed such great power, and Grand Elder He has come out of seclusion. How could my master punish me?"
"It's just that the disciples have mixed emotions. They feel happy but also disappointed."
"Are you disappointed with the mountain door?" He You Tian asked.
"Disciple... I dare not..." Xiang Ke bowed his head deeply.
"I understand Xiang Ke's emotions at this moment."
Although He You Tian had seemed to bring everything back to a full circle for others, Xiang Ke was the one who suffered after I fell out of favor. Including those who were good friends with him, such as the previous Zhu Yaya, were all affected and suffered together while guarding the mountain gate. Their relationship completely collapsed.
The hearts of people can be wounded.
I have a place where I can stick to and bear it.
Xiang Ke was now relieved, but his heart was swaying and he couldn't bear it anymore.
How many people in Si Guo Mountain think like Xiang Ke?
"The external evil has not been eliminated yet." He You Tian sighed slightly.
"The external evil still exists, and that's why Si Guo Mountain's hearts are unstable. Xiang Ke, that's why you dare to go down the mountain but don't dare to speak up. You want to go down the mountain voluntarily, but I He You Tian, as the Grand Elder, forbid you from going down the mountain!"
"If all the disciples lose hope in the mountain gate, it would fulfill the oracle of Tian Ji Dao Ren from hundreds of years ago! Xiang Ke, do you understand?" He You Tian's tone was serious.
Xiang Ke was stunned, muttering:"External evil...this...how is it possible...Sun Zhuo has already...that external evil, who is it?"
