"Haha!"
Chu Zhenghao chuckled and said, "It's nothing. It's just that I know that I've reached my limit in terms of both my own potential and teaching others. Since there's no point in staying, I might as well leave. I don't want people to say that I'm misleading others and ruin my reputation! "
"Brother Chu, aren't you being a little too pessimistic?"
Lu Yuankai smiled. "It was my fault that I targeted you and made you the sixth elder of the sect. But even I have to admit that with your abilities, you're more than qualified to be the head elder or even the head of the sect. "
Chu Zhenghao let out a self-deprecating laugh and said, "Brother Lu, you think too highly of me. The most important thing for a person was to know their own limits! In this aspect, I am confident that I can do it. "
Lv Yuankai asked, "Brother Chu, are you really willing to hole up in a place like this for the rest of your life and live a life that no one cares about? Then, after you die, no one in this world will remember you?"
At this moment, Chu Zhenghao finally raised his head and looked at Lv Yuankai. After staring for a long time, he suddenly laughed and asked mockingly, "Brother Lu, are you saying that if I go back, you want me to be the head of the Brushing Willow Sect?"
Lu Yuankai was startled. He didn't think that Chu Zhenghao would make such a request.
The Brushing Willow Sect was the number one sect in Jade Willow Country!
It wasn't an exaggeration to say that the head of the Brushing Willow Sect was second to only one and above everyone else!
As the head of the Brushing Willow Sect, Lu Yuankai knew this very well.
However, the imperial family obviously wouldn't give such a position to someone else.
Ever since the Brushing Willow Sect was founded, the head of the sect had always been a member of the imperial family.
This rule wouldn't change no matter who the emperor was.
But now, Chu Zhenghao was making such a request. How could he agree?
One had to know that he was no longer the head of the Brushing Willow Sect who could summon the wind and rain. He was only Lu Yuanlong's dog, a butcher who only knew how to kill.
It wasn't an exaggeration to say that his life was in Lu Yuanlong's hands. As long as Lv Yuanlong wanted to kill him, a single thought was enough to make him die thousands of times!
How could someone like him be qualified to agree to Chu Zhenghao's request to be the Sect Leader of the Brushing Willow Sect?
Moreover, even if he was in power now, he would never agree to such conditions.
He knew very well what kind of person Chu Zhenghao was.
He was a very principled person, and at the same time, a very stubborn person.
In his heart, he had his own scale. No matter what he did, he would have his own judgment. Once he set his mind on something, no matter what happened, it would be impossible to change his mind.
Such a person was very difficult to control! Putting him in an important position might lead to trouble!
It was precisely because of this that he chose to protect Chu Zhenghao in the conflict between him and the Great Elder back in the Brushing Willow Sect. He banished Chu Zhenghao from the core of the sect and completely ignored him.
Without a doubt, if this kind of person was allowed to control the Brushing Willow Sect, it wouldn't be long before the sect no longer belonged to the Lu family. It would completely break away from the control of the imperial family.
Thinking up to this point, Lu Yuankai laughed bitterly and said, "Brother Chu, perhaps you don't know, but my current situation isn't very good. Therefore, I can't agree to this request of yours for now! How about this, you come back with me now, and if you have any requests, you can tell His Majesty! His Majesty values your abilities, I believe he will do his best to satisfy your requests! "
Chu Zhenghao looked at Lu Yuankai and suddenly laughed loudly. "Brother Lu, I really didn't expect you to be this patient for an old man like me!"
Lu Yuankai frowned. They were both smart people, how could he not see that the other party was mocking him?
To be honest, if it wasn't for the fact that he had a mission to do his best to bring Chu Zhenghao back, he wouldn't have done so. He didn't hesitate to make a move and slaughter this old bastard who mocked and ridiculed him!
"Brother Chu, what happened back then is already in the past."
Lv Yuankai took a deep breath and then continued, "I know that I let you down back then, making you suffer for so many years. I apologize to you here! However, have you forgotten? The reason why I'm in such a miserable state today, is it also because of your precious disciple, Qin Yi? Let's not pursue this matter anymore! Is that okay? "
After a pause, he continued, "Moreover, although I was entrusted by someone to come here today, I'm not here to help you. But it was indeed for your own good! When I return, I will definitely help you put in a good word for you in front of His Majesty and ask him to give you a high position! In this way, you can also make up for the regret of not being able to fulfill your lofty aspirations, right? "
"Brother Lu, let's stop here!"
At this moment, Chu Zhenghao suddenly raised his hand and said, "First of all, when you sided with the Great Elder, I was indeed a little dissatisfied. But after so many years, I've gotten over it. I can even say that I should thank you. Otherwise, I don't even know what would have happened to me today! I thank you for giving me a chance to stay true to myself. "
"Also, you said that the reason why you're in such a miserable state today is all because of Qin Yi. I don't agree with that!"
Chu Zhenghao shook his head and said, "Think about it, why did Qin Yi want to deal with you? Weren't you the one who captured the most important people in his life and even used them to satisfy your ambitions? You were in the wrong first, and you've done many unjust things. Isn't it your own fault that you ended up like this? So, there's no hatred between us in the first place! There's no such thing as not owing each other anything! "
"Lastly …"
After a pause, he continued, "Although I didn't see what Lv Yuanlong did during this period of time, I heard about what he did. I already knew that you were a dog under his command, biting people everywhere. Although I, Chu Zhenghao, am useless, I will never give up! You could have been a good person, but you insisted on being a begging dog in front of others! "
At the end of his speech, even Chu Zhenghao, who had always been calm, sounded a little agitated.
At this moment, the atmosphere in the room became unprecedentedly heavy.
