Seeing that Ren Tanqian had suddenly come to the martial house, all the guards bowed respectfully.
"Martial House Master!"
"Martial House Master, you have finally returned. The five core elders have been waiting for you for a long time." A guard came before Ren Tanqian and cupped his fists.
Ren Tanqian nodded and turned into a shadow. He ascended the mountain peak at an extremely fast speed and disappeared from the guards' eyes in the blink of an eye, causing the guards to exclaim endlessly in their hearts.
After passing through the vast training field and a long corridor, Ren Tanqian arrived in front of a majestic octagonal building. He pushed open the door and walked in.
In the hall of the octagonal building, the five core elders were already waiting.
"I heard that Grand Secretary Murong came to our martial house? What's going on? "Ren Tanqian asked as soon as he entered the door.
Ren Tanqian had just returned to Yuzhou City when he heard that Murong Tuohai had come to Yuzhou martial house. He immediately rushed back to the martial house to find out what was going on.
The Murong Clan was one of the four major clans in the kingdom, and Murong Tuohai was the head of the Murong Clan. It was no small matter for such a person to come to the Yu Province Martial House. He had to find out the ins and outs of the matter.
"Martial House Master, Grand Secretary Murong came to our martial house to see a young man called Lin Yun." One of the core elders replied.
"Lin Yun?!" Ren Tanqian's name was like thunder in his ears.
He immediately remembered that the young man he met in the Savage Mountains was also called Lin Yun.
Could these two be the same person?
After thinking for a while, Ren Tanqian continued to ask, "What is Grand Secretary Murong's purpose in looking for this young man?"
The five core elders shook their heads, indicating that they did not know.
One of the core elders replied, "We do not know either. Grand Secretary Murong did not say why."
Bragging Simon said in a strange tone, "I think that lad must have offended Grand Secretary Murong in some way."
"Offended?"
Ren Tanqian thought for a while, then shook his head and denied, "That's impossible. How could a disciple of our martial house have any dealings with someone like Grand Secretary Murong?"
"Also, with Grand Secretary Murong's status, even if he was offended by a disciple, he would only send someone to deal with it. He will only send someone over to deal with it. He will never come to settle the score with you personally. "
When the core elders heard Ren Tanqian's words, they felt that it made sense and nodded in agreement.
Even Bragging Simon couldn't refute this point of view.
"Grand Secretary Murong came to find this youth, could it be because …" A white light flashed in Ren Tanqian's mind, and he suddenly understood something.
If this Lin Yun was really that youth, then Murong Tuohai was most likely looking for him to rope him in.
Ren Tanqian felt that there was a need to confirm this youth's identity, so he immediately instructed the five core elders, "Bring me Lin Yun's information first."
…
A few minutes later.
Lin Yun's detailed information was presented to Ren Tanqian.
Age: 15.
He was a third-level Swordsman.
A Heaven Rank Martial Spirit in the form of a sword.
This basically matched the youth he saw in the Savage Mountain Range.
Was it really that young man?
Thinking up to this point, Ren Tanqian started to panic. "Where does this include Lin Yun? Get him to see me immediately. "
When Ren Tanqian finished speaking, the entire hall immediately quietened down.
The other four Core Elders all turned their heads to look at Bragging Simon.
Ren Tanqian also turned his head and looked at Bragging Simon, wanting to know what had happened.
Bragging Simon's expression froze, and cold sweat immediately appeared on his forehead.
He suddenly realized that he had poked a hornet's nest.
Despite the unease in his heart, Bragging Simon still braced himself and told Ren Tanqian about how he had chased Lin Yun out of the Martial House.
After hearing Bragging Simon's words, Ren Tanqian's face turned extremely gloomy. It was as if the entire world owed him money.
Ren Tanqian did not dare to believe that while he was away, the Martial House had actually been turned into such a mess by these five idiots.
Bang!
There was a loud sound as the table in front of Ren Tanqian was smashed into smithereens.
The core elders were so frightened that they took a few steps back.
Ren Tanqian was so angry that he jumped up. He pointed at the five core elders and scolded, "The five of you, do you know what kind of stupid things you have done?!"
"A genius who had awakened a Heaven Rank Martial Spirit was actually chased out by you bunch of good-for-nothings. This is equivalent to throwing away a shiny piece of gold!"
Seeing that Ren Tanqian was angry, the other four core elders all tried to push the blame away. They expressed that this matter had nothing to do with them and that it was all Bragging Simon's insistence.
Bragging Simon could only endure Ren Tanqian's anger and explain himself, "The Martial House Head did not know about this. This Lin Yun had barged into the inner disciples' room and attacked a fellow disciple. Not only did he not repent, but he also had a glib tongue and was full of excuses.
"For a disciple like him, who does not have proper values, he will only be a scourge to the Martial House. Therefore, I voted with the other elders and unanimously decided to expel him from the Martial House!"
After Bragging Simon finished speaking, Bai Juyi stood up and said, "No, no. According to what I know, the reason why Lin Yun barged into the inner disciples' room was because Elder Ximen's grandson, Ximen Qing, had kidnapped Lin Yun's sister.
"In order to rescue his sister, Lin Yun had barged into the inner disciples' room and injured a fellow disciple. Lin Yun has a reason for his actions, so it's understandable. Elder Ximen didn't say that Lin Yun's worldview was wrong. "
Hearing Bai Juyi's words, Bragging Simon's lungs were about to explode. "Bai Juyi, you …"
"Enough!"
Ren Tanqian interrupted the conversation between the two of them. With a stern tone, he said to the five people present, "Don't forget that the Yuzhou Martial House is not your backyard. It is a branch of the Nangong family in Yuzhou City. It will forever belong to the Nangong family!"
"The disciples of the Yuzhou Martial House are also part of the Nangong family. They are not people you can deal with as you wish!"
"Especially a talented disciple like Lin Yun. If the Nangong family found out that we had expelled such a genius, do you know what the consequences would be?"
Hearing Ren Tanqian's words, all the core elders held their breath.
Bragging Simon thought for a moment, then lowered his voice and said, "Martial House Head, please do not worry. The Nangong family is in charge of the kingdom's politics. They work day and night to manage the kingdom's affairs. They would not know about such a small matter."
Another core elder nodded his head and said, "Elder Ximen's words make sense. As the saying goes, the sky is high and the emperor is far away. The Nangong family is far away in the imperial city. They have no way of knowing about the situation here."
Ren Tanqian looked at the two of them with disdain. Then, he said with a serious expression, "Under normal circumstances, the Nangong family would not know about such matters."
"But times are different now. Even someone like the Great Scholar Murong has personally come to visit Lin Yun. He has come all the way to Yuzhou, most likely to rope in Lin Yun. "
"If he really wants to rope in Lin Yun, then we will be in big trouble. Because if Lin Yun accepts his invitation, he will follow him into the imperial city. When that happens, the Nangong family will definitely notice. "
"Then, the Nangong family will secretly investigate Lin Yun's background. When that happens, the matter of Lin Yun being expelled from the Martial House will naturally surface."
After hearing Ren Tanqian's words, the five core elders couldn't help but swallow their saliva. They began to realize the seriousness of the situation.
Ren Tanqian said anxiously, "No matter what, we cannot let the Great Scholar Murong rope in Lin Yun. Otherwise, all of us in the Martial House will be finished!"
