As soon as this sentence was said, even a fool knew that Yang Chen was smiling for his concubine to get back what originally belonged to him. However, in the face of such a situation, whether it was Sect Master Cui, Elder Feng or Yang Haoxuan, how could they say no?
"The five of them are only at the fifth stage of the Human Immortal Stage at most, how can they control it?" Yang Haoxuan refused to give up. He had already paid such a heavy price for this and once the crisis was over, he did not know how he would be dealt with. How could he be willing to defend? Perhaps Yang Haoxuan also wanted to find out something from Yang Chen's words so that Yang Zhisheng could have a chance to control the dragon puppet.
"Controlling the dragon puppet does not depend on the level of one's cultivation." Yang Chen seemed to feel that he had achieved his goal and let down his guard. He then said something that made the eyes of the higher-ups of the Five Elements Sect light up.
If it did not depend on the level of one's cultivation, it meant that there was a shortcut. At the same time, it also meant that the Five Elements Sect had paid such a huge price to refine the dragon puppet but it was all for naught. Not only that, it had also sent so many people into danger.
Yang Chen knew that he had made a slip of the tongue the moment the words left his mouth. He immediately shut his mouth and did not say anything else. His attitude was very clear. Either the Murong sisters came or these people could die however they wanted.
Looking at the formation, the expressions of pain on the faces of the masters had become more and more severe. It seemed that they would not be able to support it in the next moment. When Elder Feng turned to look at Yang Chen, his face also had a different look.
"Elder Feng, it looks like you have some other ideas." Yang Chen did not seem to feel that he was still a guest in the Five Elements Sect as he said with a grin, "Shall I take a guess, Senior?"
"Please!" Sect Master Cui observed the situation in the formation as he patiently gestured to Yang Chen.
"I guess that Elder Feng must be thinking that since I know such a unique method, for the future of the Five Elements Sect, I have no choice but to wrong a junior like me." Yang Chen wasn't bothered by the unfriendly gazes of Elder Feng and Elder Yang as he voiced his guess to Sect Leader Cui.
"Really?" Sect Master Cui had known Elder Feng for many years. How could he not understand his thoughts? By saying this, Yang Chen had basically guessed Elder Feng's plan. "Since you've already guessed this, why did you still come?"
Elder Feng had already made a mistake by supporting Yang Haoxuan previously. In order to make up for this mistake, he would probably do anything. Sect Leader Cui was certain that even if Yang Chen had not mentioned it, Elder Feng would have had the same plan.
"I'm here to see if the Five Elements Sect is still a part of Taoism, and if they're willing to pay the price for their wrongdoings." Yang Chen said with a grin, as if Elder Feng and Yang Haoxuan, who were beside him, did not exist. "Are you willing to sacrifice unrelated outsiders for the sake of your own wrongdoers?"
"You're not an outsider who has nothing to do with this!" Yang Haoxuan said with a straight face.
"I understand! An innocent man gets into trouble because of his wealth! " Yang Chen nodded his head quickly and said to Sect Leader Cui, "Actually, my biggest mistake was to ask the Murong sisters not to rebel against the Sect. Otherwise, who in the Five Elements Sect could force them to take out a Golden Immortal intermediate stage dragon puppet?"
Glancing at the crowd, Yang Chen turned to Sect Leader Cui with a smile and asked, "Sect Leader Cui, Elder Feng, Elder Yang, you're all seniors. Is it right or wrong to be loyal to the Sect?"
At this moment, Sect Leader Cui didn't dare to look at Yang Chen who was staring at him with that kind of smile. He could only silently scold Yang Haoxuan and Elder Feng in his heart. However, there was nothing he could do to change the current situation.
"Since you're loyal to the Sect, you should hand it over quickly!" Yang Haoxuan said with a cold face.
"The Murong sisters are disciples of the Five Elements Sect, so they handed over the dragon puppet. Did they do something wrong?" Yang Chen ignored Yang Haoxuan's expression and still had a smile on his face. "But I'm not a disciple of the Five Elements Sect. I have no obligation to hand over what I know to the Five Elements Sect. Isn't that right, Elder Yang?"
"No matter what, you're already here." Yang Haoxuan had already concluded that Yang Chen had a solution. Since he was here, he wasn't afraid that Yang Chen would run away. Thus, he spoke with much more confidence.
"Well said, well said!" Yang Chen cooperated. "Actually, as long as you guys agree to a small request of mine, I can command the Murong sisters to break this trap. How about it?" In any case, Yang Chen was adamant that the Murong sisters would control the dragon puppet. As for the others, he didn't even need to think about it.
Elder Feng made a move against Yang Chen because he didn't want to destroy so many people in the Sect. He could see that Yang Haoxuan was a schemer. He had great ambition but little talent. Even though he had the upper hand, he still ended up in such a situation. He really couldn't afford to be like this. Since Yang Chen was willing to help, and the Murong sisters had always been disciples of the Five Elements Sect, it didn't matter to him who controlled the dragon puppet. Thinking of this, Elder Yang's attitude towards Yang Chen became much better. He didn't have the same idea as before.
"What's the condition?" Sect Leader Cui asked hurriedly. In just a short while, the experts in the formation's faces were getting uglier. The situation was urgent, so it was better to solve it as soon as possible.
"As long as Sect Master Cui and Elder Feng make a heart oath, everything that Elder Yang has done will be made public afterwards, this younger generation junior will naturally help!" Yang Chen did not procrastinate and directly made a request.
"Don't even think about it!" Yang Haoxuan was furious. If this matter was made public, wouldn't his and his son Yang Zhisheng's reputation be ruined? As one of the Core Elders of the Five Elements Sect, how could he be humiliated like this?
"Sure!" Sect Leader Cui didn't even hesitate and agreed. On the other hand, Elder Feng hesitated for a while before looking at the experts in the formation and nodding his head.
Elder Feng had a part in Yang Haoxuan's matter. If Yang Haoxuan's matter was made public, Yang Haoxuan wouldn't be the only one whose reputation would be ruined. At least five Core Elders and Elder Feng would be implicated. However, Elder Feng had done it for the Sect's sake. Now, it was also for the Sect's sake. Hence, he was willing to accept the consequences.
Just like what Yang Chen had said, if one did something wrong, one would have to bear the consequences. He couldn't just pat his butt and get away with it as if nothing had happened, right?
With Elder Feng's approval, Yang Haoxuan didn't have the slightest ability to object in front of Sect Leader Cui and Elder Feng. At this moment, he was extremely regretful that he had poured all his power into refining the Dragon Puppet. Otherwise, he might have been able to put up a fight.
