Tiger Subduing Peak, Conference Hall!
As long as there were people, there would be conflicts!
Although the conflicts within the Giant Sword Sect were not as cruel as those within the Hundred Chi Gate, there were still intense internal conflicts.
Furthermore, unlike the conflicts within the Hundred Chi Gate, the internal conflicts within the Giant Sword Sect were mostly between the internal and external clans.
This was because the development of the Giant Sword Sect was very similar to the development of the clans.
The ones who truly controlled the power and resources of the sect were the Sect Leader's faction and the Doyen Peak's faction with the surname Wu.
However, as the Giant Sword Sect's overall strength continued to increase, some geniuses who joined the Giant Sword Sect and had exceptional talent and potential who were not surnamed Wu gradually became dissatisfied with the Wu Clan controlling the sect after gaining strength that was not inferior to the Wu Clan.
After a hundred years of development, those geniuses who were not from the Wu Clan had all ascended to the upper echelons of the sect. As they grew stronger, they gradually joined forces and started to fight with the Wu Clan for control of the sect.
Among them, there were more than a dozen peak masters who were Martial Emperors and Martial Kings sitting on the west side.
"Oh!"
After hearing Twelfth Elder's explanation, Peak Leader Ji's eyes suddenly lit up. He quickly seized the loophole in Twelfth Elder's explanation and launched a fierce attack.
"Twelfth Elder, since Third Elder was trapped by the Black Widow and the Black Bear in order to save you, why didn't you join forces with Third Elder? Instead, you ran away alone!"
"This …!"
Facing Peak Leader Ji's fierce attack, Wu Zhen immediately realized his mistake and didn't know how to answer.
This was because he was shocked by the Black Bear's strength and only wanted to save his own life. He didn't even consider the possibility of joining forces.
"Twelfth Elder, because of your cowardice and cowardice, you caused Third Elder to be in danger. I don't know how you are going to face Third Elder's family now and how you can continue to enjoy the treatment of a Doyen!"
Seeing that Wu Zhen was confused by his attack, Peak Leader Ji obediently continued his fierce attack.
"I …!"
In the face of Peak Master Ji's obedient pursuit, especially his mental questioning, Wu Zhen's mind felt as if it had suffered a heavy blow. He took a step back and looked at Peak Master Ji with a pale face.
"Ji Mingyong, enough!"
Seeing that the Peak Master surnamed Ji was still unwilling to let Wu Zhen go even though his mind had been seriously injured and his aura had once again dropped to the level of a Ninth Grade Martial King, an old man on the eastern head seat fiercely slapped the armrest of his chair and loudly reprimanded.
The old man who shouted was the Head Elder of the Giant Sword Sect's Senior Elder Peak. He was also a middle stage fourth rank Martial King and his strength was second only to Wu Xing.
Facing the First Elder's stern rebuke, Ji Ming shrugged his shoulders and leaned back in his chair with a helpless expression.
"The Sect Master summoned all of you here to discuss how to deal with the Black Widow, as well as the danger brought about by the Black Bear youth who can command the Ninth Rank of the Fifth Step. It's not for you to quarrel."
Although Ji Mingyong had already stopped attacking, the irritated First Elder still criticized him with a gloomy expression.
"First Elder, I'm sorry. I was too emotional just now and didn't think things through. I promise I won't do it again."
Although the Great Elder's criticism was directed at him and the 12th Elder, Ji Mingyong could clearly sense that the Great Elder was mainly targeting him.
If he didn't take the initiative to admit his mistake and admit defeat, then the Great Elder's criticism wouldn't stop.
Therefore, the astute Ji Mingyong directly stood up and apologized.
"Just be careful in the future!"
After nodding at Ji Mingyong, the First Elder no longer expressed any opinion on the quarrel between the two of them.
Following the Great Elder's silence, the scene suddenly quieted down.
It was quiet for nearly ten minutes!
Seeing that everyone's silence wasn't a solution, the Head Elder of the west side, Li Zhongming, took the initiative to break the silence. He was also the strongest of the Peak Masters with a cultivation of the Early Fourth Rank Martial King.
"Sect Master, First Elder, although the Giant Sword Sect's strength has increased rapidly in the past few decades, in terms of the cultivation of the strongest experts, we are still lacking compared to second-rate sects."
"Even if all of us here join forces, I'm afraid we won't be a match for the Black Bear that has reached the Ninth Rank of the Fifth Step."
"Therefore, my idea is to wait and see!"
"Peak Master Li, don't tell me we don't care about the Third Elder who is currently in danger!"
Wait and see, that is, don't care. Li Zhongming's suggestion immediately aroused the strong opposition of the second strongest Elder of the Martial Department, Wuwei.
"Second Elder, almost an hour has passed since the Twelfth Elder fled back to the sect."
"Such a long time has passed. With the Black Widow's murderous nature, do you think the Third Elder is still alive?" Li Zhongming asked coldly in response to Wuwei's strong opposition.
"Peak Master Li, as the saying goes, seeing is believing. Before seeing that black bear of the ninth rank of the fifth rank, none of us can be sure that a young man in the Martial Master Realm can drive a black bear at the peak of the ninth rank of the Martial Royal Realm."
Facing Li Zhongming's question, the Second Elder retorted, not to be outdone.
"Before we see the Third Elder's corpse, none of us can be sure whether he has been killed or not."
"Since the Second Elder is so concerned about the Third Elder's safety, then the Second Elder should personally go to the Martial Training Forest to check and confirm whether what the Twelfth Elder said was true."
Facing the Second Elder's counterattack, Li Zhongming mocked and ridiculed him while also secretly trying to goad him into action.
"That's enough!"
Wu Xing, who had been watching coldly from the sidelines, saw that Li Zhongming and Ji Wei, who represented the Peak Master's faction, were either provoking or goading the Martial Department's Elder into taking the risk. Wu Xing finally could not suppress his anger and reprimanded them.
After Li Zhongming and Wuwei stopped arguing, Wu Xing took a deep breath and tried his best to maintain a calm tone as he spoke.
"Although the Twelfth Elder did not care about the Third Elder's safety and fled back to the sect and should be punished by the sect, I believe that with the Twelfth Elder's eyesight as a Martial King, he will not be mistaken about the current situation."
"Due to the limitations of our Giant Sword Sect's strength, I've decided to follow Peak Master Li's suggestion and wait and see."
"That's enough. Meeting adjourned!"
Waving his hand, Wu Xing, who was very depressed by the conflict between the sects, waved his hand, indicating that everyone could leave.
However, just as the Senior Elders and Peak Masters stood up and were about to leave the meeting hall, a deafening roar suddenly came from within the Giant Sword Sect.
Following the deafening roar, the mountain range where the Giant Sword Sect was located began to shake.
"Not good, enemy attack!"
Feeling the shaking of the mountain range, the expression of Wu Xing, who had the highest cultivation, changed. He then rushed out of the meeting hall.
