It was precisely because the Sacred Palace didn't have the slightest advantage at the level of quasi-Saint Great Venerates that they were so passive in today's meeting that was completely composed of quasi-Saint Great Venerates. In fact, they had been overshadowed the moment they arrived.
According to the great sovereign, the Sacred Palace should have contributed the least, so the Sacred Palace should have received the least benefits.
"That's right, those who put in more effort should get a bigger share. Otherwise, it wouldn't be fair," the other supreme sovereign chimed in.
"I also agree." A third great sovereign chimed in.
One after another, quasi-Saint great sovereigns chimed in. Of course, these people were all from the Supreme Deity Sect and Liwang Sect.
Nine Heavens and the Myriad Beast Valley had already reached an agreement with the Sacred Palace, so they naturally wouldn't add insult to injury. In the face of these great sovereigns' insistence on fairness, Xiao Sheng and the other three remained calm and composed. Their faces didn't change in the slightest, nor did they refute, as if none of this had anything to do with them.
Seeing that Xiao Sheng and the other three had no intention of speaking, the great sovereigns' eyes flashed with confusion. What was the Sacred Palace great sovereign doing? Could it be that they didn't understand the meaning behind his words?
Xiao Sheng and the other three remained silent. In the end, the first great sovereign to speak looked directly at Xiao Sheng.
"Brother Xiao Sheng, does the Sacred Palace think we're right?"
Since Xiao Sheng and the other three remained silent, they had no choice but to make things clear. Xiao Sheng looked indifferently at the great sovereign and said calmly.
"What does it mean to contribute the most, and what does it mean to contribute the least?"
"This naturally depends on the strength of each side. The stronger side will naturally contribute more, and the weaker side will naturally contribute less." The great sovereign chuckled.
It was obvious that the Sacred Palace was the weakest among the five great sects, especially in the Quasi-saint Great Venerate realm. Xiao Sheng smiled when he heard this.
"In that case, does everyone think that my Sacred Palace contributed the least in this battle?"
Since they had already come to this point, there was no harm in getting straight to the point. Therefore, Xiao Sheng did not beat around the bush and spoke very directly.
Xiao Chen asked straightforwardly. Upon hearing this, the supreme venerate replied with a smile on his face.
"I don't think there's a need for me to say this. Everyone present should have seen that the Sacred Palace has indeed contributed the least in this battle. After all, your Sacred Palace did not contribute at all to Ku Gui and Wan Shan. However, since we are allies, we will naturally not treat the Sacred Palace unfairly. I believe that the benefits that should be given to the Sacred Palace will not be small. What do you say, brother Xiao Sheng?"
The meaning was very clear. Xiao Sheng said indifferently. "In that case, let's see what the four great sovereigns think. I believe that the four great sovereigns will be very fair."
Xiao Sheng could not be bothered to waste his breath on this person. Since he was already prepared, he would directly throw the matter to Jiang Taishen and the other three. Moreover, when he said this, Xiao Sheng deliberately included the Lion Sect.
The Myriad Beast Valley originally did not want to participate in the distribution of benefits this time. Now that Xiao Sheng had said this, it was obvious that the Lion Sect was also included and the four of them would decide.
Unaware of the hidden meaning in Xiao Sheng's words, the great sovereigns present all looked towards Jiang Taishen and the other three.
Xiao Sheng was right. Although the distribution of benefits this time seemed to be decided by the great sovereigns present, in reality, only Jiang Taishen and the other three had the right to decide.
It was also because of this that the Sacred Palace was in such a passive position. The Sacred Palace did not have people at the level of Jiang Taishen, so they naturally did not have the right to speak and could only follow the arrangements of others.
As expected, Jiang Taishen calmly said under everyone's gazes.
"Everyone is right and very reasonable. However, I feel that since we are all allies, we should advance and retreat together. Although the Sacred Palace did not contribute much in this battle, they have worked hard even if they did not contribute much. Therefore, the benefits that should be divided will not be small."
Jiang Taishen paused as his gaze fell on Xiao Sheng and the other three. After pausing for a moment, Jiang Taishen continued.
"How about this, the Sacred Palace will get one supreme-grade spirit vein and ten mid-grade spirit veins from the Night Ghost Pavilion and the Evil Sky Hall. As for the pills and talismans, they will all be given to the Sacred Palace. After all, we are all allies and there are some things that do not need to be so clearly divided."
Xiao Sheng, Randeng, Bing Lian, and Mengjie's eyes flashed with anger when they heard Jiang Taishen's words. As for the great sovereigns of the Supreme Deity Sect and Liwang Sect, they all cupped their hands together and said.
"We agree with the great sovereign's benevolence."
The great sovereigns all agreed with Jiang Taishen's words. Moreover, from their expressions, they seemed to think that Jiang Taishen was being very benevolent and that the Sacred Palace was benefiting greatly.
However, even Ming Yan could tell that Jiang Taishen's allocation was blatant bullying.
He had directly skipped the distribution of benefits for the other three great sects and directly decided on the Sacred Palace's share. Moreover, from beginning to end, Jiang Taishen had not mentioned a single secret realm or secret cultivation area.
In other words, the various industries and cultivation resources of the Night Ghost Pavilion and the Evil Sky Hall could not be obtained by the Sacred Palace, let alone secret realms. They did not even have a single secret cultivation area.
The Night Ghost Pavilion and the Evil Sky Hall had a total of four secret realms and eighteen secret cultivation areas. However, these did not seem to have anything to do with the Sacred Palace.
As for the so-called supreme-grade spirit veins, pills, and talismans, they were not of much use at all.
It seemed very generous of him to give all the pills and talismans of the two great sects to the Sacred Palace, but everyone present knew that these things were of little value.
This was because pills and talismans could be refined by oneself, but secret realms and secret cultivation areas were the foundation of a sect's development.
Without secret realms and secret cultivation areas, a sect could not develop at all. Relying on pills and talismans alone? That was simply a fool's dream.
They had originally thought that no matter how greedy Jiang Taishen and the others were, they wouldn't give any secret zones to the Sacred Palace, but they should at least have cultivation secret zones. Who would have thought that Jiang Taishen wouldn't even give any secret zones to the Sacred Palace, as if the Sacred Palace couldn't do anything about it. It was no wonder that Xiao Sheng and the others were furious.
After working so hard for so long, they did not even get to eat the scraps and only drank the soup. Anyone would be furious if they were in Jiang Taishen's shoes.
Therefore, Randeng also said in a low voice, "Isn't the great sovereign's actions a little too much?"
