"Xiao Chen, stay in the sect for this period of time. Don't run around! When Old Man Gui comes out of seclusion, the pressure will be reduced! "The Sect Leader said to Xiao Chen as he watched Qu Feng leave.
Xiao Chen didn't know whether to laugh or cry when he heard this.
He was the Sect Leader of Nanning Immortal Sect, a peak Celestial Emperor Realm existence. How could he say such powerless words?
He wasn't afraid that a disciple like him would feel that the entire sect was hard to rely on after hearing this.
However, he still said respectfully, "Yes, disciple will remember."
"Well, as long as you don't run around and stay in the sect, even if some people have ulterior motives, it's enough to protect your life!" The Sect Leader added before the giant face disappeared.
Only then did Xiao Chen look at Elder Zhang. His injured arm had long since healed.
"Master, are you alright?" Xiao Chen asked with concern.
"I'm fine. It's just that Qu Feng and the Immortal Gathering Palace are too much!" Elder Zhang said with a black face. "Don't blame the Sect Leader. He's also under a lot of pressure! The Extreme Immortal Palace is powerful and can be said to be the most powerful force in the southern region. It's a good thing for you to get the slot this time. However, it's difficult to protect it. I forgot to tell you that Old Man Gui went into seclusion a while ago. Otherwise, Qu Feng wouldn't have dared to be so arrogant and attack you in the sect! "
"Master's cultivation is important! We'll just bear with it for now! "Xiao Chen was very understanding.
"Well, Old Man Gui is an Immortal Emperor who has entered the Dao. Even if the Extreme Immortal Palace wants to attack him, they'll have to be cautious! However, we still have to think of some ways to divert their attention. Otherwise, you can only stay in the sect in the future! "Elder Zhang frowned.
"Master, what do you mean?" Xiao Chen didn't quite understand the latter part of Elder Zhang's words.
"I heard from Old Man Gui that you seem to have a good relationship with a lord from the Heavenly Secrets Pavilion when you used the Holy Immortal Fruit to save him?" Elder Zhang asked.
"You mean … Lord Chen Jian?" Xiao Chen was taken aback for a moment before nodding his head.
"That's right. Actually, my good disciple, this quota is really hot for you! Although my words are very hurtful, you have indeed surpassed everyone's imagination this time! In the past, only the elite disciples of the Celestial Nation and those ancient powers could get their hands on the quota, and now you've gotten it! However, neither I nor the entire South Spirit Immortal Sect has the ability to help you secure this spot! "Elder Zhang blamed himself.
"Then why did Master insist that I not resell the quota?" Xiao Chen understood the meaning behind Elder Zhang's words. It seemed that he was also trying to persuade him to give up this spot, so he was even more puzzled.
"That's because I don't want you to sell the quota to that old thing, Qu Feng! Of course, this is also the Sect Leader's intention! The Extreme Immortal Palace is already suppressing us to the point where we can't even breathe. They naturally don't have the guts to compete with the Celestial Nation. However, if we were to obtain this quota, I'm afraid that we won't have a place in the entire South in the future! So, what I'm trying to say is that you might as well ask that lord from the Heavenly Secrets Pavilion. If he's interested, it's best to give him the quota! "Elder Zhang said with a bitter smile.
"Firstly, I heard from Old Man Gui that that lord treats you quite well. I believe that you won't lose out if you resell the quota. Secondly, the Heavenly Secrets Pavilion is one of the most powerful forces in the entire Celestial Realm. Moreover, they won't meddle in a fight between small sects for no reason. It's more suitable to sell it to them! Actually, selling it to the Celestial Treasures Pavilion is fine too. However, this quota is very precious. If you take the initiative to contact that lord from the Heavenly Secrets Pavilion, I believe that you can improve your relationship with him. It's much more worthwhile than selling it to the Celestial Treasures Pavilion for a little more money! "
When Xiao Chen heard this, he rolled his eyes. "Master, it turns out that you don't have the slightest bit of confidence. I really thought that you would be able to protect my quota!"
To be honest, when he heard Elder Zhang instructing him not to resell the quota no matter what, he was a little excited. After all, it sounded like the entire South Spirit Immortal Sect was backing him up. However, when he heard this, that feeling completely disappeared.
Elder Zhang instantly felt a little awkward. "You little brat, do you think that I don't want to help you protect your quota? In reality, we can't even protect it! Although that Qu Feng's words were harsh and arrogant, what he said was the truth. If you insist on not selling it, you will indeed face a disaster! So, I can only help you find a better buyer! "
"Other than that, are there any other reasons?" Xiao Chen seemed to be deep in thought.
Elder Zhang glanced at him and said awkwardly, "There's a little. The reason why I asked you to sell this quota to the lord of the Heavenly Prophecy Pavilion is because of this deal. In addition to your previous relationship, that lord should be able to take care of the South Spirit Immortal Sect! This time, the matter of you obtaining the quota was too big and you've already offended the Extreme Immortal Palace. If we can get the lord of the Heavenly Prophecy Pavilion to step in and protect the sect, then the Extreme Immortal Palace won't have the guts to cause trouble for the Heavenly Prophecy Pavilion. If that lord is willing to step in and establish a relationship with the sect, then the people from the Extreme Immortal Palace won't dare to vent their anger on us! "
Elder Zhang's words were filled with a sense of helplessness that came from his bones.
Xiao Chen understood.
Although Elder Zhang's words did not sound nice and were even a little blunt, it did make Xiao Chen deeply understand that the entire South Spirit Immortal Sect would not be able to protect his quota.
He had to sell this quota to have a way out.
This was completely different from what Xiao Chen had imagined before he returned.
"If I had known this would happen, I would have found more reasons to stay in the foreign world. I thought obtaining the quota was something to be happy about. I didn't expect that it would bring disaster to the sect as well!" Xiao Chen did not know whether to be happy or sad.
Then, he looked at Elder Zhang and said, "Master, let me think about it. Let me contact the lord of the Heavenly Prophecy Pavilion first!"
"Mm, there's no need to be too anxious. Even if Qu Feng and the others want to cause trouble, they won't dare to directly destroy the South Spirit Immortal Sect!" Elder Zhang said again.
Xiao Chen nodded and did not say anything else. He had wanted to tell Elder Zhang that he had actually obtained more than one quota this time. However, he did not dare to say it now.
The Nanning Immortal Sect would suffer a calamity just because of one quota. If he were to say that he had two more quotas, wouldn't Elder Zhang be so scared that he fainted?
