"Xu Mu! What nonsense are you talking about? As far as I know, the Nandou Sect and the Xiao Clan have already informed their Patriarchs of this matter. "
"Whether it's the Nandou Sect or the Xiao Clan, their Patriarchs have already come out of seclusion for this year's Temple Fair. It's not surprising that they know about this matter, but have you seen their Patriarchs come out?"
Indeed.
This year's Temple Fair was unusual. Not only the Xiao Clan and the Nandou Sect, but the Patriarchs of the other major clans and sects had also come out of seclusion. Even the Thái Tông Patriarchs were no exception. They might have even known about this matter.
However, just as Xu Mu said, the Nandou Sect and the Xiao Clan's Patriarchs did not come out for this matter. They also did not go to war to find the imposter of the King.
"They should be waiting for the Yan Luo Immortal Manor to make a move. If the Yan Luo Immortal Manor makes a move, they will immediately follow. On the other hand, if there is no movement from the Yan Luo Immortal Manor, they will definitely not act rashly."
Thái Tông Sect Master Cang Kong nodded. He thought so too. After pondering for a moment, he asked, "I heard that the imposter who claimed to be the King said that he would also appear at the Yan Luo Imperial Mausoleum during the Temple Fair?"
"Yes."
Xu Mu thought about what Gu Qingfeng said last night and said, "He said that he would let the black-hearted Old Master Zhou Taihe go to the Yan Luo Imperial Mausoleum during the Temple Fair to receive his death."
"This …"
Thái Tông Sect Master Cang Kong fell into deep thought after hearing this.
At this moment, a white brilliance suddenly appeared in the main hall. When the white brilliance dissipated, an old man appeared.
Everyone was shocked when they saw this old man.
They all knew this old man. He was the former Sect Master of Thái Tông Sect and the current Patriarch of the Inner Pavilion.
"Old … Old Sect Master?"
Perhaps it was because no one had expected the Old Sect Master to appear in the main hall. After regaining their senses, Cang Kong, Xu Mu, and the others did not dare to be negligent and hurriedly bowed. The moment Cangyun saw the Old Sect Master again, he was even more excited because the Old Sect Master was once his master.
"Master … You old man … Why are you here?"
"I saw that you were arguing endlessly, so I came over to take a look."
Hearing this, Cangyun said again, "Master, Juncai, he …"
Just as he opened his mouth, before he could finish, he was interrupted by the old Sect Master, "Master already knows about Jun Cai's matter, and so do all the Grand Elders of the Inner Pavilion. After all, this was caused by Jun Cai's reckless actions, and no one else can be blamed. You can only blame yourself for spoiling him too much!"
"What? Master … "
Cangyun had just opened his mouth when he was interrupted again. This time, it was with an angry shout.
"What else did you say? What if you didn't spoil him so much? How could he be so arrogant and conceited? If you carefully taught him the principles of life, he wouldn't have been beaten half to death today! "
Cangyun refused to accept this, but in the face of his Master's teachings, he did not dare to refute.
"Cangyun, oh Cangyun, back then, it was because I spoiled you too much that you made such a big mistake. Master has always felt extremely guilty about this, and I have repeatedly warned you to teach Juncai with all your heart and not let him do whatever he wants. How could you …"
As he spoke, the old Sect Master sighed and looked at Cangyun. His heart was filled with guilt and self-blame.
He blamed himself for spoiling Cangyun too much back then, causing him to become arrogant and overbearing. Otherwise, Cangyun would not have offended the King, and would not have been beaten half to death by the King, thus ruining his life.
Every time he thought of this, the old Sect Master was filled with regret.
"Old Sect Master," Cangkong asked, "I wonder what you and the other elders of the cabinet mean …"
"As for the situation of the self-proclaimed King, this old man knows nothing about it. Let us investigate before we make a decision. Cangkong, as the leader of a sect, you must remember that no matter what you encounter, you must think twice before you act. You must not act on impulse, and you must not act willfully."
The old Sect Master was very satisfied with Cangkong.
Back then, he had considered many things before passing the position of Sect Master to Cangkong.
Back then, Cangkong was not the most outstanding candidate for the position of Sect Master. Whether it was cultivation, strength, or creation, or other things, he could only be considered average. He was neither outstanding nor terrible.
The reason why the old Sect Master passed the position of Sect Master to him was more because of his character, especially his prudence.
He was very clear.
There were too many mysterious and terrifying existences in the world, and some of them were far beyond his imagination. Once he provoked an existence that he should not provoke, the consequences would be unimaginable. The Thái Tông, which had been passed down for tens of thousands of years, could disappear overnight.
He himself was a good example.
Back then, Cangyun had been beaten half to death by King Chixiao. Just like Cangyun today, he was also flustered and exasperated. He had even ordered all the masters of the Thái Tông to be mobilized. He was prepared to tear Gu Tianlang, who was not yet King, to pieces at all costs.
Fortunately, there was a hidden ancestor who stopped it back then.
The facts proved that if he had mobilized all the masters of the Thái Tông to encircle and annihilate King Chixiao, the Thái Tông today might not have happened. This was because not long after the incident, King Chixiao had already begun to wipe out the four great clans and six great sects of the Yan Luo Kingdom, and even killed the masters of Sengoku.
With just a thought, he had almost caused the Thái Tông to be destroyed.
Even now, when he thought about it, the old Suzerain still felt some lingering fear. This was the fundamental reason why he had chosen to give up on the excellent candidates and chose Cangyun to take over as the Suzerain. This was not only his idea, but also the idea of the elders of the cabinet. They all believed that a cautious and ordinary person was more suitable to be the Suzerain than a genius with great fortune.
"This matter will end here for the time being. The elders of the cabinet will think of a way to find out the identity of the person who called himself King." Finished speaking, the old Sect Master then turned to Cang Yun and said, "Cang Yun, don't be too sad, and don't hold any resentment in your heart. Master has already examined Jun Cai's injuries. Although the injuries are a bit superficial, as long as he is carefully tended to, it won't be difficult for him to recover. Master will personally bring him back to treat him in a few days, so don't worry."
Hearing this, Cangyun suddenly became excited and said, "Master, is there still hope for Juncai's treasured body?"
"There should still be hope for Juncai's White Flame Treasured Body."
After saying this, not only did Cangyun become excited, Cang Kong and Xu Mu also became excited. Although Li Juncai was not their disciple, he was still a member of the Thái Tông. Naturally, they also hoped that Li Juncai's White Flame Treasured Body could be restored.
"Old Suzerain, I have also checked Juncai's injuries. The foundation of his White Flame Treasured Body has been destroyed and broken. Can it really be restored?"
"Juncai's treasured body foundation has indeed been destroyed, but it has not dissipated. There should still be hope."
Shattered but not dissipated?
Cang Kong and the others were puzzled.
"This is also what I wanted to say this time. The reason why Juncai's treasured body foundation has not dissipated should be because the person who called himself King showed mercy. If this is the case, then his existence is definitely far beyond I's imagination. Therefore, you must remember, especially Cangyun, do not look for that person to pursue this matter."
