"The Dragon Palace was later given to Yang Chen." On this point, Old Li had nothing to hide. Many people knew about it, but only the higher-ups of the major Sect. With Sect Master Wu's identity, of course, he was qualified to know about it.
"How can I give it to him?" After Sect Master Wu heard this, he became anxious on the spot: "This is a wood attribute Dragon Palace, Yang Chen is a fire cultivator, what does he want a Wood Dragon Palace for?"
"What's wrong with fire elementalists?" Elder Li asked doubtfully. "Wood feeds fire, and the five elements feed off each other. Besides, it's true that he's a fire cultivator, but he has so many wives and concubines, and many of them are of the wood element. Are you afraid that he won't have a place to use? "
"That's not what I meant." When Sect Master Wu heard this, he understood that Elder Li had misunderstood. He thought that he was saying that Yang Chen had no use for it and that it would be a waste. He hurriedly explained, "I mean, why should we give it to him? Why can't he keep it? Our Profound Heaven Sect is staying? "
At that time, with Sect Master Li's status and the role he played in annihilating the Three River Alliance, Holocaust Sect, and Thousand Demon Sect, it was not an exaggeration to say that Sect Master Li was the leader with the greatest credit at that time. Was this not enough to make Xuan Tian Sect leave the Dragon Palace? Could it be that the Black Heaven Sect was just going to let these guys bully them?
Deep down, the idea of Sect Master Wu being the number one in the world in the Profound Heaven Sect was deeply rooted. Not to mention the Heavenly Emperor being number one, the Profound Heaven Sect was in charge of the entire Heavenly Court. All good things should belong to the Profound Heaven Sect.
"If it were you, how likely do you think the major Sect would agree to give the Dragon Palace to the Mysterious Heaven Sect?" Elder Li didn't think that Sect Master Wu's idea was wrong. If he didn't know about the relationship between Yang Chen and the Profound Heaven Sect, he wouldn't be able to figure it out either. Therefore, he patiently explained to Sect Master Wu.
Sect Leader Wu lowered his head and began to ponder. It wasn't his first time taking over the Sect. He was a fledgling who didn't know anything, so he naturally understood the nature of the relationships between Sect members. Everyone could form an alliance and unite against a common enemy, but they wouldn't necessarily be able to tolerate one party being the sole ruler.
According to this logic, the Mysterious Heaven Sect wouldn't have been able to fight for the ownership of the Dragon Palace at that time. Not only the Black Heaven Sect, but the other Sects also did not have this opportunity. Because no Sect would be willing to let another Sect get the Dragon Palace. This was the reality.
It seemed that everyone had no choice but to compromise at that time. That was why they gave the Dragon Palace to Yang Chen, who would never be a threat to anyone.
Of course, there was another layer of meaning, that was, the relationship between Yang Chen and the Dragon Clan. It was said that the Dragon Palace was given to Yang Chen, but it might be indirectly given to the experts of the Dragon Clan. This way, all parties would be satisfied, and there would be no future troubles.
After understanding this, Sect Master Wu no longer had any thoughts about the ownership of the Dragon Palace. However, he still had a little hope in his heart. If he could find a chance to kill Yang Chen in the future, would he have a chance to get the Dragon Palace?
While Sect Master Wu was pondering, he didn't notice the flash of disappointment in Elder Li's eyes. As the dignified Sect Master of the Xuantian Sect, he didn't ask about the number of casualties or how the aftermath would be handled. Instead, he was concerned about who had the small Dragon Palace. Wasn't he being too petty?
No wonder when Sect Master Li came to the stage, almost everyone in the Xuantian Sect was united and moved forward. Even those who didn't accept him in the past were later convinced by what Sect Master Li did. This was the bearing that the dignified Sect Master of the Xuantian Sect should have.
On the other hand, Sect Master Wu came up with a bloody purge. Relying on the support of the two lower realm ancestors, he didn't put everyone in his eyes. Elder Li and the others also saw it in their eyes and felt pain in their hearts. The dignified Xuantian Sect had been tossed around to at most half of its strength in its heyday, and its prestige was even less.
While Elder Li was disappointed, Zhou Sheng was also reflecting. He had been back from the Monster Realm for a long time. Although he didn't know much about the situation in the Xuantian Sect, the number of Xuan Immortal experts had been reduced by almost half, and the number of Heaven Immortal experts had also decreased significantly.
For a Great Principle Golden Immortal, it wasn't difficult to discover this kind of change. He only needed to walk around the Xuantian Sect's range. No cultivator could hide their aura in front of a Great Principle Golden Immortal, unless they hid in a unique spatial magic treasure.
But even if some experts cultivated in some caves, it wouldn't make the Xuantian Sect become like this.
Why did it become like this, Zhou Sheng actually knew in his heart. He and Lin Zongxun supported Sect Master Wu's ascension and killed a lot of people at the beginning. They originally thought that with their ancestor identity and cultivation, plus the fact that Sect Master Wu was the orthodox Sect Master, the matter of the Xuantian Sect changing Sect Master would no longer have any twists and turns. They didn't expect that there would be a purge after Sect Master Wu came to power.
The previous purge was necessary, and it happened under the eyes of Zhou Sheng and Lin Zongxun. Both of them supported it. But after Zhou Sheng left, the purge continued, which was a bit too much.
Zhou Sheng hadn't been a Sect Master, but he had also seen the power and means of a Sect Master.
After an orthodox Sect Master came to power, he could only rely on a long-term purge of those who were not convinced and disobedient to maintain his position. This could only mean one thing, and that was that this Sect Master didn't seem to be so competent.
If he really had the ability to be a Sect Master, he should rely on his own achievements in taking charge of the Sect to shut the mouths of those who opposed him, and then let them be convinced and obey his commands, instead of letting those who followed him prosper and those who opposed him perish. If he couldn't tolerate a little bit of disagreement, then this Sect Master was really too petty.
Zhou Sheng didn't think that all this was caused by him and Lin Zongxun forcibly supporting Sect Master Wu to power. Sect Master Wu's reputation and qualifications were not enough, and he was forcibly supported to power. It would be strange if those people were convinced. In particular, there was Sect Master Li, who had done a good job in all aspects, as a comparison. Sect Master Wu's shortcomings would be infinitely magnified.
Money and goods had to be thrown away, and people would die if they compared themselves. People were afraid of comparison, and a comparison could show the true superiority and inferiority. Now even Zhou Sheng looked at the situation of the Xuantian Sect, and he also had some doubts. Was his and Lin Zongxun's decision a bit hasty?
Lin Zongxun was already dead, and he died because of his arrogant character. After Zhou Sheng heard the news of Lin Zongxun's death, he instantly understood everything. Regardless of whether there was a conspiracy behind it, Lin Zongxun himself was already injured to the point that he couldn't move, yet he still wanted to order everything around and put on the airs of his Grandmaster. He didn't treat the disciples of the Sect as people. If it was him, he would also kill Lin Zongxun.
Zhou Sheng didn't want to comment on a dead person. He was just thinking about whether he had made a mistake in supporting Sect Master Wu before. If he didn't support Sect Master Wu to power and Sect Master Li took charge of the Xuantian Sect, would the Xuantian Sect be much better than it was now?
