Reassemble Myriad Star Pavilion
The tense situation of the garrison fell apart because of Chu Xingyun's words. Guo Yi was removed from his post and would never be hired again. Tens of thousands of Imperial Army soldiers were imprisoned and punished. Once this news spread, the entire Saint Star City was abuzz.
Everyone knew that Guo Yi was also a member of the clan. As the commander of the Imperial Army, his status was not low and he had great power. Chu Xingyun's actions this time were suspicious. He wanted to use Guo Yi's removal to intimidate the clan.
After all, the chaos in the eighteen ancient cities had already lasted for several days. After the monster tide was brought under control, it was becoming more and more intense. As the Pavilion Master of Wanjian Pavilion, he naturally could not sit idly by.
In the courtyard of the Liu Clan, Chu Xingyun, Liu Mengyan, and the others were gathered here. As they talked, they would occasionally laugh. The scene was very harmonious.
"The travel of 300,000 young students was suppressed by the various great clans. This Guo Yi is shockingly the claws and teeth of the various great clans. After this incident, those clans don't dare act rashly again." Liu Mengyan spat out a heavy voice, and she instantly felt comfortable in both her body and mind.
She was in charge of managing the senior generation of the clan's upper echelons. Unfortunately, these people were all cunning people. Although they pledged allegiance, they were secretly scheming. It was simply difficult to control them.
Now that Chu Xingyun had taken action to suppress them, those clan's upper echelons were bound to be afraid. In this way, Chu Xingyun could also manage the three hundred thousand young people, killing two birds with one stone.
"The thoughts of those clan's upper echelons are deeply ingrained. It will be very difficult to forcefully change them. But the strange thing is that my actions this time have caused a great commotion, but those clan's people are strangely quiet." Chu Xingyun frowned. He suddenly felt a little strange. This matter had gone too smoothly and he was at a loss.
"Master has spoken forcefully. How would those fellows dare to say anything?" Ning Lefan laughed mischievously. However, just as he finished speaking, Xia Qingcheng rushed in from outside the courtyard in a panic. She hurriedly said, "Something bad has happened!"
As soon as she said this, the entire hall fell silent. Everyone stopped talking and turned to look at Xia Qingcheng.
Xia Qingcheng came to the front of the crowd, still in a panic. She took a few deep breaths and said, "Just now, Duan Chun, Mo Wuwei, and the others announced that the Patriarchs of the Four Great Clans will be the leaders of the Four Great Clans to establish the Elders Guild. They also gathered a large number of the upper echelons of the clans and the officials of the ancient city.
"Elders Guild?!" Everyone was stunned when they heard this. They all vaguely felt that something was wrong.
Xia Qingcheng nodded heavily and said, "Guo Yi's name was among the officials they recruited. Moreover, they publicly announced that Guo Yi was appointed as a director of the Council of Elders and gave him great privileges."
Weng!
The gazes of everyone sank abruptly, and all of them emanated icy cold auras. After all, not long ago, Chu Xingyun had publicly stripped Guo Yi of his position as commander and never employed him again, and he'd displayed his domineering might.
But as soon as he turned around, the Patriarchs of the Four Great Clans established the Elders Guild. They wanted to appoint Guo Yi as a director of the Elders Guild and give him many privileges.
Even a three-year-old child would know that the Patriarchs of the Four Great Clans were doing this to disgust Chu Xingyun and retaliate.
"This is outrageous. Do they still have Master in their eyes?!" Ning Lefan had a fiery temper. How could he be wronged like this? As soon as he spoke, the expressions of the others turned ugly and they all snorted coldly.
"Yun 'er, what do you think about this?" Liu Mengyan also had a stomach full of anger. She turned to look at Chu Xingyun.
"Let's go and take a look first before making a decision." Chu Xingyun's voice was slightly cold. The pitch-black sword mark between his eyebrows wriggled. He slowly stood up and strode out of the courtyard.
Seeing this, everyone also strode out and quickly followed.
The Patriarchs of the Four Great Clans were currently gathered in the Myriad Star Tower. Numerous figures flickered in the pavilions. They were either laughing loudly or discussing loudly. The scene was very lively.
Outside the Myriad Star Tower, there was a crowd of onlookers. The crowd surged and formed a dark mass. Their eyes were filled with curiosity as they constantly discussed this matter.
Just as the discussion was going on, an extremely powerful sword pressure suddenly descended and enveloped the entire Myriad Star Tower. The crowd outside the tower stopped talking in an instant, and the crowd inside the tower also stopped what they were doing. Their expressions were somewhat shocked.
"He's here." In the main hall, Duan Chun suddenly looked outside the tower and said faintly.
As soon as he finished speaking, a gust of wind blew past. Immediately, in front of everyone's eyes, Chu Xingyun appeared in the main hall. His robes fluttered loudly, and his posture was fierce and cold.
Behind Chu Xingyun were Ning Lefan, Liu Mengyan, and the others. Their eyes were filled with coldness. As soon as they entered, they did not hide their auras at all and instantly sealed the entire void.
Such a scene made the clan members in the main hall look at each other. Their breathing quickened, and they appeared particularly panicked. However, the Patriarchs of the Four Great Clans looked calm. They slowly put down the wine cups in their hands.
"Pavilion Master, you've come personally to the Myriad Star Tower. We're really flattered." Duan Chun strode forward. When he arrived in front of Chu Xingyun, he bowed slightly with a smile on his face.
The other three Patriarchs were the same. They were not surprised or afraid, and their voices did not tremble at all.
"At this point, you still have to put on an act. Is it useful?" Ning Lefan said coldly and pointed angrily at the four people in front of him. "The four of you first established the Elders' Guild, and then appointed Guo Yi as the director. These two big moves are hinting at Master and embarrassing him. Even if you kneel and beg for mercy now, it's too late!"
After saying that, Ning Lefan stepped forward. The sword intent in his body spread out and directly suppressed the four Patriarchs. This time, Chu Xingyun did not stop him. He just looked coldly at the four people in front of him.
"This is Elder Lefan, right?" Being suppressed by Ning Lefan's sword intent, Duan Chun's face showed no trace of anger. Instead, he frowned and said with a wry smile, "Why can't I understand what you said just now?"
"Still want to play dumb?" Ning Lefan's expression became more and more ugly. He wanted to continue to attack, but he saw Ou Zhongkui raise his head and said with a complacent face, "Some time ago, Pavilion Master Luo Yun publicly announced that the major families would live in seclusion in the mountains and become reclusive families. When we saw this, we had the idea of establishing the Elders' Guild. We want to gather the senior members of the major families and some ancient city officials to become the backbone of the family. We want to help each other and learn from each other. Why not?"
"Hmm?"
Ou Zhongkui's words made Ning Lefan's expression turn slightly serious. The Elders' Guild actually had such a meaning?
Before he could ask, Mo Wuwei, who had a pair of triangular eyes, also raised his head and curled his lips. "Although Guo Yi has been dismissed, he is still a member of the family. Absorbing him into the Elders' Guild and giving him a certain position doesn't seem to violate the law, right?"
"Whether it violates the law or not, why should we be confused? It just so happens that Elder Lu, who represents the law of Wanjian Pavilion, is here. Wouldn't it be clear if we ask him directly?" Duan Chun said in a strange voice. His voice was mixed with spiritual power and spread inside and outside the Myriad Star Tower.
