"What do you mean?" Yan Bo was still unconvinced.
Guang Ming had no choice but to explain patiently. These were his good brothers when he was in the Foundation Establishment realm. He had only been in Jin Dan for a few years, so he couldn't put on the airs of a Jin Dan Martial Uncle.
"I also heard from senior apprentice-brother Guang Yao that the people from Peacock Palace have indeed come because of junior apprentice-brother Cigarette Stub!
At that time in the Peacock Plume, what Little Yi said was the truth. That thief Tumu coveted the Peacock Blood and was disloyal, so he deceived the inexperienced Little Peacock. Little Peacock fell for his evil trick and took the initiative to extract the Peacock Blood!
Little Yi's eyes were sharp, so he saw everything clearly from the side! So when the Peacock Blood appeared, in order to protect the friendship between Xuanyuan and Peacock Palace, he immediately attacked with his sword to stop him. As a result, he died and his blood collapsed!
Based on this point, not only was Little Yi not in the wrong, he was also indebted to Peacock Palace, or at least Yan Bo. Redressing his name was a matter of course, so there was no need to worry too much.
But there were two things that made it difficult for Martial Uncles to reveal the truth to the world now. In fact, it didn't matter whether it was revealed or not. Who would remember the past of a mere Foundation Establishment realm cultivator? Not to mention him, even if a Jin Dan like me stole the Peacock Blood, it would only be a few years before it would naturally disappear. "
Yan Bo disagreed. "Senior Martial Brother, this has nothing to do with the level of cultivation, right? The key is right and wrong! Right is right, wrong is wrong! You can't ignore it just because he's a mere Foundation Establishment realm cultivator?
In Xuanyuan, even Little Yi doesn't know him. What he did was right, so we can't be perfunctory!
This isn't just for him, but also for the tens of thousands of Foundation Establishment cultivators in Xuanyuan! "
Guang Ming's head hurt. He realized he had said the wrong thing. He had never been good with words, so he was a bit clumsy in front of Yan Bo.
"Don't pester endlessly. I was just making an example! Do you still want to hear the reason? If you don't, I'll leave and let you do whatever you want. What can you do? "
Yan Bo didn't say anything, so he could only complain in front of Guang Ming. If he really caused a ruckus in the Thunder Palace, someone would take care of him right then! In Xuanyuan, no matter who you were, the decision of the higher-ups was unquestionable.
Light sighed, "The elders also feel guilty towards Little Yi, but this matter is not simple, because Little Yi does have the Peacock Blood Divine Ability. Then, where did his divine ability come from?
This was probably the reason why the Peacock Plume had taken him away alone. Not letting him go for decades was probably also the reason why it was punishing him!
Therefore, the elders believed that Little Yi had indeed not done anything wrong in the Peacock Palace, but the process of obtaining the Peacock Blood divine ability might have been tainted!
Before everything is clear, before the meaning of the Peacock Plume is complete, it is not good for us to come to a conclusion too early!
It's not that the sect wants to pursue the matter. Based on our Xuanyuan's habits, this kind of thing happens countless times every year. As long as we don't lose out … But you have to consider the feelings of your allies …
The conclusion of two major forces is always changing back and forth. It's too childish, so it's better to wait a little longer. "
Yan Bo shook his head. "How long do we have to wait? Little Yi is clearly unwilling to say … "
Light smiled. "When the Peacock Plume releases him, that's when he will speak!
The two elders of the Peacock Palace also mentioned that based on Little Yi's temperament in the Peacock Palace, he wouldn't have used some kind of vicious method to collect the Peacock Blood. Therefore, they don't intend to pursue the real reason why Little Yi obtained the Peacock Blood. As long as the Peacock Plume releases him, this matter will be written off!
This is the first reason. It's not that we don't want to clear things up, but that we have to wait a little longer … "
Yan Bo didn't say anything. From the sect's point of view, this was the right way to go, but from the individual's point of view, it was somewhat sullen. One person should serve the whole, this was the principle. Not only Xuanyuan, but every major force was like this.
Personal sacrifice came naturally, making it impossible for you to refuse. This was also a kind of influence. In the big chessboard of the cultivation world, who could completely avoid it?
He saved when he should, and sacrificed when he should. Thinking of how the sect sent him to save Lou Xiaoyi when he was nothing, Yan Bo's head was full of complaints, but he couldn't say anything!
Seeing that Yan Bo had finally become obedient, Light poked him. "Your bad temper makes it easy to spoil things. The sect is playing a big game of chess in the middle and lower levels recently. They've been preparing for more than ten years. I can't tell you the details, but this includes Tian Xingjian. Therefore, before we take action, we shouldn't provoke them too much!
Little Yi's soul lamp is fine, but if Tian Xingjian is blamed for the death of his disciple a few decades later, he'll go berserk. It won't do any good!
This is the second reason I want to talk about!
So, do you still want to overturn the Thunder Palace and challenge the Soaring Heaven Pavilion? "
Yan Bo smiled awkwardly. "Alright, I believe you, Senior Brother! But if there's really any action, Senior Brother can't forget about me! "
Light nodded. "Don't worry, you can't hide even if you want to!
But before that, shouldn't you improve your swordsmanship? I know you're all starting to prepare for the formation of your Gold Core. This is a big matter and can't be delayed! But under such a big matter, shouldn't you pay attention to some small matters? The current state of the five-ring ranking is the worst result of our Xuanyuan's inner sword in the past ten thousand years. Don't you feel guilty at all? "
When Light said this, Yan Bo immediately turned into a frosted eggplant. He had nothing to say. This was indeed what he, and this generation's inner sword, felt ashamed of!
In the past hundred years, after the Swordsman of this generation formed his Gold Core in the Glorious Light Era, there were no other rising stars in the inner sword who could advance into the top ten of the five-ring Foundation Establishment ranking!
A few decades ago, Xuanyuan's inner sword had eight positions in the top hundred. Now, there were still eight, but none of them were in the top ten. There were only three in the top thirty, and they were all old Swordsman who could form their Gold Core at any time. The newcomers were all hovering in the top ten, and there was no sign of improvement. This was very rare in the history of Xuanyuan's inner sword.
Of course, the situation of the outer sword was even worse! But they were already very bad, so now they couldn't be any worse! This was because Lou Xiaoyi firmly occupied the eleventh position, which was actually better than the previous record. This was the reason why Light was dissatisfied, and in fact, it was also the reason why many elders of the inner sword were dissatisfied.
Since when did Xuanyuan need an external swordsman to be the face of the outside world? To the proud inner sword, this was simply intolerable!
In the five-ring, there were no special competitions to determine the ranking of the cultivators. For example, there were arenas or special competitions. This was too artificial and not in line with the true meaning of cultivation. Cultivators often relied on more random opportunities to express themselves, such as a certain fated spiritual assembly, a certain action, a certain conflict, or a personal grudge. Unless you dared to guard the Fish Leaping Cliff alone for ten years and accept the challenge of all the heroes in the world!
But that was no longer about fighting for the top ten, but about conquering the world! No one dared to do so. This wasn't something that could be done with just a little bit of strength, but with overwhelming strength. Since the establishment of the ranking for tens of thousands of years, the number of people who dared to do this could be counted with one's fingers!
For the past few decades, the inner sword cultivators had encountered this kind of predicament. It was also because of their strength and also because of their opportunities. They didn't display the Swordsman's superior fighting ability.
In fact, the difference in strength between the top thirty was very close, and there wasn't a fundamental difference!
