This time, the reason why Xu Lingchong came out of the inner sect of Soaring Sky Pavilion was that, firstly, Kang Ming Ming had repeatedly begged him to bring him to Spirit Jade Hall so that it would be convenient for him to do things in Spirit Jade Hall in the future. Secondly, he had also received information from Kang Ming Ming, saying that the ignorant newcomer in the secular world, Lin Yi, had suffered a big loss this time and was sent to Dead Mine No. 10 by Meng Jueguang. So, on a whim, he came out to watch the show.
Unexpectedly, before he could see the show, he ran into this matter. Lu Bianren, this ten-thousand-year-old coward, actually wanted to change the mine for Lin Yi. He was just a mere Third Pavilion Master of Welcome Pavilion, did he really think that he was a big shot!
"Who was it just now that said that he wanted to change the mine for Lin Yi? Was it you, Pavilion Master Lu San? "Xu Lingchong curled his lips and looked at Lu Bianren, but there was undisguised disdain on his face.
"Yes, it was me." Lu Bianren braced himself and said.
"Oh, so it was really Pavilion Master Lu San who said it. Then I don't understand, since when can a mere Third Pavilion Master of Welcome Pavilion intervene in the affairs of Spirit Jade Hall? Could it be that Spirit Jade Hall has already been annexed by Welcome Pavilion, or has Spirit Jade Hall been annexed by your Repent Cliff? "Xu Lingchong sneered and said aggressively.
"Hehe, look at what Young Master Xu is saying. Welcome Pavilion is so poor and shabby, even if it is annexed, it should be our Spirit Jade Hall annexing them!" Dai Wuchang echoed with a smile. Although he was frightened by Lu Bianren just now, now that he had Xu Lingchong to back him up, he naturally didn't have to worry about Lu Bianren's expression anymore.
Although they were both independent departments, Welcome Pavilion and Spirit Jade Hall were nominally at the same level, but Welcome Pavilion could only manage a group of new disciples who had just entered the sect, while Spirit Jade Hall was in charge of the entire north island's money bag. Even the three pavilions attached great importance to it. The appointment of the Pavilion Master of Spirit Jade Hall was completely not on the same level as the appointment of the Pavilion Master of Welcome Pavilion. The status of the two could not be mentioned in the same breath.
"Haha. I actually hope that Young Master Xu's words are true. If Pavilion Master Lu San really has the ability to annex Spirit Jade Hall, then I'll have to burn incense and worship him. When I become the new deacon next month and take over Reflection Cliff, won't I be in charge of Spirit Jade Hall then? That's just wishful thinking! "Kang Zhaoming chuckled behind him.
"Dream on! You're practically a toad lusting after the flesh of a swan. Oh, that's not right, the toad should be a certain Third Pavilion Master! "Xu Lingchong and the others immediately burst into laughter.
Listening to these people's unbridled mockery, Ye Zichen's heart skipped a beat. Lu Bianren's face darkened involuntarily. Although he did not have the confidence to contend with Xu Lingchong, it was related to Lin Yi's future, and even more related to his insistence all along. In the end, he still looked firm and said in a sonorous voice, "Young Master Xu must be joking. I'm not meddling in the affairs of Spirit Jade Hall. But Spirit Jade Hall originally has this special case. The newcomers in the tenth mining area can be changed to other mining areas at their discretion, and Lin Yi is a newcomer in my Welcome Pavilion, so I request to change the mining area for Lin Yi, not exceeding my authority. "
"Oh? There's such a special case in Spirit Jade Hall? Dai Wuchang, you're the person in charge of the mining area contract, so you should be the clearest about this matter. Tell me about it. "Xu Lingchong raised his eyebrows and looked at Dai Wuchang.
"In reply to Young Master Xu, I've been working here for some years, but I've never heard of such a special case. Why don't you ask this Pavilion Master Lu San to point it out to me face to face? Which section and which article in the regulations of Spirit Jade Hall is this special case he's talking about?" Dai Wuchang looked serious, looking at Lu Bianren with a sneer.
"You!" Lu Bianren's face involuntarily turned green. He choked until he couldn't speak for a long time.
This so-called special case in the tenth mining area was actually something that everyone had agreed upon for a long time. From top to bottom in Spirit Jade Hall, everyone knew that there was such a thing, and they all knew that it was reasonable to do so, but it had never been written into the regulations. Dai Wuchang deliberately saying so now was clearly nitpicking.
"Oh. Turns out that Spirit Jade Hall doesn't have such a rule at all. It's just that Pavilion Master Lu San deliberately fabricated it for convenience! Luckily Dai Wuchang is here today, or else this young master would really be deceived by you. I've always heard how useless Pavilion Master Lu San is. Now it looks like the rumors are wrong. He's actually quite sinister! " Xu Lingchong pretended to be angry. He naturally knew about the special case in the tenth mining area, but since the other party had already taken the initiative to deliver a handle to his door, it would be a waste not to make use of it!
"Don't you slander me!" Lu Bianren was not a person with a sharp tongue to begin with. Now that Xu Lingchong and the rest joined hands to scold him, he immediately had no way to refute. He could only look at Dai Wuchang with a cold face and said, "Junior Apprentice Brother Dai, since you insist on seizing a chicken feather as an arrow of authority, then I can't do anything about it. Wait for me to find Deputy Hall Master Tong Fei to come forward. At that time, let's see what you have to say!"
As he spoke, Lu Bianren was about to turn around and leave with the bitter Senior Apprentice Brother. Dai Wuchang's face suddenly changed.
Although there were no loopholes in what he said just now, anyone with a discerning eye knew that he was deliberately helping Xu Lingchong to scold Lu Bianren. The reason was actually not tenable. And the more crucial point was that Deputy Hall Master Tong Fei came from the Profound Secrets Pavilion. Towards the Soaring Sky Pavilion's Xu Lingchong, these arrogant and despotic young masters, he had always been unable to tolerate it. If this matter really spread to Tong Fei's ears, he, Dai Wuchang, might be implicated, and even turn to start investigating him. That would be playing big!
Dai Wuchang immediately looked at Xu Lingchong for help. However, before he could speak, Xu Lingchong had already taken the initiative to speak, "Wait!"
Lu Bianren originally didn't want to pay attention to him, but due to the other's deep background, he could only patiently stop his footsteps. He turned his head to look at Xu Lingchong and said, "Is there anything else?"
"There's nothing else. I just want to tell you Third Pavilion Master Lu a sentence." Xu Lingchong smiled with ridicule and said, "If you go to find Tong Fei to change the mining area for Lin Yi, then I won't stop you. But after I go back, I will tell my grandfather that the people of Blue Cloud Pavilion are getting more and more outrageous. They are obviously sitting in the position of the Third Pavilion Master of the Welcoming Pavilion, but they stretch their hands into the Spirit Jade Hall. Their power is simply monstrous and they look down on everyone. Shouldn't we talk to the Elder Guild and reorganize the three pavilions like three years ago?"
Hiss!
Hearing this, Lu Bianren couldn't help but suck in a breath of cold air. Looking at the complacent Xu Lingchong, his expression was uncertain.
