Hearing Daoist Cang Song's words, the crowd fell silent.
Thinking about it carefully, it did seem to make sense. If it was just to snatch away the outstanding disciples of their sects, the Cheng Family would have gone overboard by making so many moves.
However, according to Daoist Cang Song's words, could it be that the Cheng Family had really met with a great enemy?
"The Cheng Family today is not something that the Cheng Family of the past can compare to. However, the Black Heaven Sect of the past was so powerful, but in the end, they still could not defeat the Cheng Family.
Even so, the Cheng Family is so cautious now. This is enough to prove that the Cheng Family might really have met with trouble!
Therefore, for the Cheng Family to participate in this Grand Competition, I want to find out the strength of our secular world and use it to deal with the possible arrival of a great enemy! "Yu Lingzi said.
"Do you have any evidence to prove that the Cheng Family has met with a great enemy? Who knows if you have colluded with the Cheng Family? "Daoist Xuan Zhen said after thinking for a while.
Although what Daoist Cang Song said made sense, he still did not really believe Cangling Sect and Tianshan Sect.
After all, they had always had a good relationship with the Cheng Family. Who knew that they were purposely trying to mislead them?
"Sect Leader Xuan Zhen, I think you might be mistaken. The reason why I have said so much is not because I want you to believe my words.
Moreover, I have already made it very clear from the start. What I have said just now is only my personal speculation.
Whether you believe it or not, it is your own business. It has nothing to do with us. "Daoist Cang Song's face was calm. He did not want to prove anything to these people.
"Hmph! You make it sound good. Tell me about it. Who else in this world can threaten the Cheng Family? "Daoist Xuan Zhen said.
"Although the Cheng Family is strong, they are not the strongest force in this world. Have you forgotten the origin of the experts that appeared in the Black Heaven Sect? "Yu Lingzi reminded.
"The origin of the experts in the Black Heaven Sect?" Everyone was stunned. Their minds kept recalling what happened that year.
"Could Sect Leader Yu Lingzi be referring to … Dynasty?" Zixia Sect's Sect Leader Ling Fei seemed to have thought of something. His expression changed and he exclaimed.
"Dynasty? That was impossible. Although the dynasty was involved in the Black Heaven Sect's matter back then. However, it has been so many years. If the dynasty really wanted to deal with the Cheng Family, they would have done so a long time ago. Why would they wait until now? "However, Daoist Ling Fei's words were rejected by Daoist Xuan Zhen.
Back when the Black Heaven Sect massacred all the sects in the world, there were indeed powerhouses from the dynasties involved.
However, after the Black Heaven Sect was defeated by the Cheng family, the dynasty also disappeared without a trace. Over the years, there had been no conflict with the Cheng family.
If one were to say that the strength of this dynasty was inferior to that of the Cheng Family, then it was understandable that the dynasty had been accumulating strength all these years.
But the problem was that the Cheng Family back then was far from being as powerful as it was now, and the dynasty was the most powerful existence in the world.
If the Black Heaven Sect had been defeated back then, the dynasty would have stood up for the Black Heaven Sect and annihilated the Cheng Clan completely.
However, the dynasty did not do so. The current strength of the Cheng Family was far from what it was in the past. For the dynasty to suddenly become enemies with the Cheng Family at this time, it seemed somewhat unreasonable.
"That may not be the case. Although the dynasty is the most mysterious and powerful force in the world, they are definitely not the benevolent kind. Otherwise, they would not have joined the Black Heaven Sect back then, and even went as far as to wipe out all the sects in the world.
However, it can also be seen that although the dynasty did not personally come forward, it does not mean that there is no conflict of interest between us and the dynasty.
If they had a knife, they would also borrow a knife to kill. The Black Heaven Sect back then was clearly their knife.
However, the Black Heaven Sect was defeated by the Cheng Family. Perhaps the dynasty did not want to personally come forward, or perhaps the dynasty did not take the Cheng Family seriously.
Since the knife was broken, then forget it.
However, after so many years, the Cheng Family's growth has been witnessed by all of us, and they are far from the Cheng Family of the past.
Perhaps the Cheng Family also saw the rapid growth of the Cheng Family, which is why they are afraid of the Cheng Family.
Under such circumstances, even if they did not have a knife, they would naturally want to personally come forward to suppress the Cheng Family.
But again, these are just our own guesses. In this world, if there is any force that can make the Cheng Family afraid, I think other than the dynasty, there is no one else, "Daoist Cang Song said.
"Indeed, the Cheng Family's growth over the years is too terrifying. The current Cheng Family has far surpassed the strength of the ten great sects in the past.
If we, the lower sects, are included, then their strength is unimaginably strong. If there is any force in the world that can threaten the Cheng Family, it can only be the most mysterious dynasty in the world, "Daoist Ling Fei said.
"If the dynasty really wants to deal with the Cheng Family, then it has nothing to do with us. At least we do not have the strength to affect the dynasty. From now on, we can also leave the Cheng Family and regain our freedom. Isn't that a good thing? "Daoist Xuan Zhen laughed.
Although the Tian Shan Sect and Cangling Sect were on good terms with the Cheng Family, he knew that the two sects did not wish to be suppressed by the Cheng Family.
Even if the Cheng Family took care of the two sects, how could that compare to the sects having freedom?
Just like the cultivators in the world, no one was willing to live under someone else's roof. Even if this person was very strong and there were many benefits to following him, they did not want to be ordered around. Therefore, they still hoped that they could regain their freedom one day.
Moreover, they did not receive many benefits from the Cheng Family over the years. On the contrary, the Cheng Family had grown very quickly and they still had to provide outstanding disciples for the Cheng Family. This basically restricted the development of their sects.
If the Cheng Family did not suppress them all these years, their sects would have recovered from the disaster long ago. In fact, their development would be much better than it was now.
After all, their sects were originally part of the ten great sects. The four hidden sects also suffered great losses. Only Limitless Palace's situation was slightly better.
Under such circumstances, if they were given the chance to develop freely, they would be the main characters of this world after the disaster. After the war, most of the resources would be in their hands.
However, in the end, they completely fell into the hands of the Cheng Family. Therefore, the Cheng Family had soared in the past few years. On the other hand, they would never be able to make a name for themselves.
At the thought of this, his heart was filled with anger.
Therefore, if it was really like what they had analyzed and the Dynasty wanted to deal with the Cheng Family, to be honest, he felt that this was an extremely good opportunity.
Not only for Shushan, but for all the sects under the Cheng Family, it was also a good thing.
As for what he had said, whether Yu Lingzi and Daoist Cang Song would go to the Cheng Family to complain about him, he did not care.
Because he believed that the Cheng Family should be very clear of this logic. If the Dynasty wanted to annihilate the Cheng Family, would the sects follow them to their deaths?
Obviously, it was impossible.
Therefore, even if they really went to complain to Cheng Yu, it would be useless. Instead, they might expose themselves and cause the Cheng Family to be wary of them.
After all, if Shushan was not loyal, would the other sects be loyal?
He believed that Yu Lingzi and Daoist Cang Song would not be so foolish.
However, Daoist Ling Fei was somewhat worried. Although he had the same thoughts as Daoist Xuan Zhen, he did not dare to say it out loud.
Now, they were still unsure if the Dynasty wanted to deal with the Cheng Family. Even if the Dynasty wanted to deal with the Cheng Family, if the Cheng Family wanted to kill them, it would be as easy as killing an ant.
If the Cheng Family were to find out about this, they would probably look for them to settle the score.
"I feel that the Dynasty might not be so easy to get along with. If the Cheng Family is no longer around, who knows how the Dynasty would treat us?
Besides, all of our sects are here. If the Dynasty were to really attack, even if the Dynasty only targeted the Cheng Family, we would not be able to escape unscathed! "Daoist Ling Fei laughed.
"What Sect Master Ling Fei said is that when the nest is overturned, there would be no eggs left intact? However, everything is just a guess. It is still too early to say all these.
However, I am just reminding everyone. If this is true, at least everyone would be prepared for it. At the very least, everyone would not be ignorant of the enemy, "Daoist Cang Song laughed.
As for Daoist Xuan Zhen, he was not that bored to go to the Cheng Family to make such a small report.
Although they had some antagonistic relationship with Shushan, at certain times, their interests were still the same.
Back then, they had no choice but to submit to the Cheng Family. After all, there was no place for them to stay. Only in the secular world could they obtain a moment of peace.
However, now that the calamity had passed, they did not wish to continue living under the Cheng Family's feet.
If it was possible, they still hoped to be like before, to maintain their freedom and be treated equally with the Cheng Family.
Even if they could no longer be treated equally with the Cheng Family, they still hoped to regain their freedom and not be controlled by the Cheng Family.
Therefore, from this point, their interests were the same as Shushan Sect.
Furthermore, with Shushan Sect as a stepping stone, what reason did they have to complain to Cheng Yu? When the time comes, if the Cheng Family were to really get rid of Shushan Sect, who would be willing to be their pawn in the future?
Therefore, they needed Shushan and Shushan also needed them. Everyone was just taking what they needed.
"What Sect Master Cang Song said is correct. Regardless of whether this matter is true or not, we already have a clear idea of it.
However, the most important thing for us now is still the competition. This time, the Cheng Family had increased the rewards by so much. I believe all of you will get your disciples to do their best, right? "Daoist Xuan Zhen looked at Yu Lingzi and Daoist Cang Song.
They did not know if Wang Chao would come, but they knew that the rewards that the Cheng Family had given were very attractive.
