Li Cangtian was not surprised when he saw the dissatisfaction on the faces of the Sect Masters. Apparently, he had expected this result.
"My friends, you only see that the Sect of the Ether wants 40% of the Spiritual Veins. But have you seen the benefits that I've fought for for the six sects?"
Li Cangtian's face turned cold as he continued, "The three major sects of the North Region have been oppressing our sects all year round. If I didn't lead the Sect of the Ether to take the lead, how could we obtain so many Spiritual Veins?"
"The Sect of the Ether has suffered heavy casualties. Don't we need to recover our strength? Isn't it unfair for your sects to hide behind and enjoy the fruits of our hard work?" Li Cangtian said sternly.
"Fellow Daoist Cang Tian, that's not right. Back then, when we were fighting against the Dark North Sect, our five sects also contributed a lot. Who knows how many of our disciples died. How could we just sit back and enjoy the fruits of others' labor?" Sect Master Corpse Puppet said gloomily.
Logically speaking, the five Sect Masters did not want to offend Li Cangtian. After all, he was the only Immortal Realm cultivator in the North Region Alliance. But the Spiritual Veins were too important. It was related to the development of their sects. Therefore, the Sect Masters could only fight for it.
"I don't want to talk nonsense. The Sect of the Ether must take 40% of the Spiritual Veins. As for the remaining 60%, it's up to you. If you don't agree with my decision, the Sect of the Ether will withdraw from the North Region Alliance and give up the position of the leader of the alliance."
Li Cangtian was completely fearless. After all, he was the only Immortal Realm cultivator in the North Region Alliance. If he led the Sect of the Ether out of the North Region Alliance, how could the five sects resist the three major sects of the North Region?
"You …?"
Sect Master Jiu Qu's face turned cold. Anger burned in her heart. But she could only suppress it and let out a long sigh.
"My friends, since Brother Cangtian wants 40% of the Spiritual Veins, we'll take 40%. We'll share the remaining 60% equally. What do you think?" Sect Master Lunar persuaded.
"Lunar Old Ghost, it's easy for you to say. But how can we share the remaining 60% equally? Are you going to give up your Lunar Sect's share?" Sect Master Corpse Kui sneered.
"That's right. If you, Tai Yin Old Man, are willing to give up your sect's share, we will agree to Dao Friend Cang Tian's request for 40% of the spirit vein." The Ascension Sect Master also sneered.
It was obvious that the Sun Moon Sect Master was speaking up for Li Cangtian and this made the other Sect Masters unhappy. It was obvious that the Sun Moon Sect Master was already on the same boat as Li Cangtian.
"Fellow Daoists, please don't be anxious. Our Lunar Sky Sect still has some foundation. This time, our Lunar Sky Sect can forgo the division of the spirit vein. I just hope that fellow Daoists won't fight among themselves," the Lunar Sky Sect Master said with a kind look on his face.
"Hmm?"
The faces of the four Sect Masters changed slightly. They had just casually mentioned it and didn't expect that the Sun Moon Sect Master would really give up her share. This caused the four Sect Masters to be shocked as their gazes towards the Sun Moon Sect Master and Li Cangtian turned solemn.
Previously, it was mentioned that the six sects had many conflicts and the North Region Alliance was formed to go against the large sects of the North Region. From the looks of it, the relationship between the Moon Sect Master and Li Cangtian was not simple and there was probably something fishy going on.
"Sect Master, you can't! If you give up our sect's spirit vein, how are our disciples going to cultivate?"
An elder of the Lunar Sky Sect hurriedly kowtowed. It was obvious that the Sun Moon Sect Master's decision had already affected the disciples of the sect.
Not only this elder, but many of the disciples of the Lunar Sky Sect were also green in the face. If they gave up the spirit vein, how were they going to cultivate?
In this cruel North Star Region, as long as one's cultivation fell behind by a bit, there was a possibility of dying in the hands of their enemies. How could the disciples of the Lunar Sky Sect not be anxious?
"Step back. How can you go against the decision of our Sect Master?" The Sun Moon Sect Master's face turned cold as she waved her hand to send the elder flying, displaying the prestige of a Sect Master.
"Fellow Grand Daoist is still the most reasonable one." Li Cangtian smiled.
"Alright, since the Old Ghost of Lunar Sky Sect is willing to give up the division of the spirit vein, then our four sects will share the remaining 60%." The Sun Moon Sect Master said in a deep voice.
Obviously, no matter what the Sun Moon Sect Master and Li Cangtian were up to, the remaining 60% was still acceptable to the four sects.
"Wait!"
Suddenly, just as the six Sect Masters were done with the division, Ye Xuan stood up quietly and took a step forward to stand in front of the six Sect Masters.
"Fellow Grand Daoist, although you are the Sect Master, you don't have the right to take away the cultivation resources of your disciples, right? As the Vice Sect Master, I don't agree to give up the spirit vein of the Lunar Sky Sect. "Ye Xuan said indifferently.
"Hmm?"
The Sun Moon Sect Master's face changed as she looked at Ye Xuan coldly. She did not know who Ye Xuan was and why he wanted to join the Lunar Sky Sect. But now that Ye Xuan had jumped out to oppose her, she felt that something was wrong.
Indeed, the Sun Moon Sect Master looked to the side and saw the disciples and elders clenching their fists as their faces turned red. They looked at Ye Xuan with gratitude.
Oh no!
The Sun Moon Sect Master cursed in her heart. She was only thinking about the deal with Li Cangtian and wanted to kill Ye Xuan first. Then, she would be able to take back the spirit vein once she entered the Immortal Realm.
However, the disciples of the sect didn't know what he was thinking. At this moment, he was basically giving away the entire sect's cultivation resources. This had already caused the disciples of the sect to question him.
As the Sect Master, the Sun Moon Sect Master knew the importance of the people's hearts. The entire sect was not formed around her but the development of the entire sect.
Sacrificing the interests of the sect was a huge taboo and it made the disciples and elders of the sect unhappy.
If this matter happened in the orthodoxy of the Great Central Territory, it would be fine. After all, the Great Central Territory was vast and cultivation resources were everywhere.
But it was different in the North Star Territory. The North Star Territory was bitterly cold and the people there were fierce. They could kill thousands of people for a limited amount of cultivation resources. Now that she was going to take away the cultivation resources of her disciples, the hidden danger was extremely terrifying.
Even though the Sun Moon Sect Master understood the logic behind it, she was already riding a tiger and it was too late to regret.
Right now, the only way was to brace himself and continue walking. He had to first suppress Ye Xuan, this thorn, and appease the people in the sect after the Alliance Gathering.
"Ye Daoyou, you have just joined my sect and are not familiar with the matters in the sect. I will tell you the reason in the future." The Sun Moon Sect Master forced a smile.
Looking at the Sun Moon Sect Master's awkward and cold expression, Ye Xuan's lips curled into a strange smile and a murderous intent flashed across his eyes.
"What a joke. Ridiculous. You are the Sect Master but you betrayed the interests of the sect and ignored your disciples. What else do you need to explain?" Ye Xuan said righteously.
"Vice Sect Master Ye is right. If we lose these spirit veins, our cultivation will stagnate. Sect Master, why do you ignore us disciples?"
Someone in the crowd said angrily. This was like a chain reaction that ignited the anger of the disciples and elders of the Sun Moon Sect.
