An angry shout reverberated through the hall. The elders sat quietly, nodding their heads, and no one dared to speak without permission. The atmosphere in the main hall became increasingly oppressive.
Lu Renkuang cast a cold glance around the room, his expression growing even more gloomy.
"Humph!"
"Yesterday, I merely gave a few scoldings, and today the Sixth Elder is absent from the regular meeting. If he can't even stand a few words, how can he achieve great things?"
"What a waste! He has held the position of elder for a thousand years, yet he has such a narrow mind. I'm extremely disappointed in him!"
The elders exchanged furtive glances, each feeling insecure.
Just as the Grand Elder was about to speak, Lu Renkuang started scolding directly!
"Zhao Fuquan only knows some hiding techniques. After thousands of years, he still hasn't mastered the three stances of the Crazy Saber. With such poor aptitude, does he really think he can be arrogant in front of me?"
"A useless person like him, who has no self - awareness, not only skips the regular meeting on a pretext, but if he wants to defect to another sect, let him go!"
"All the elders here should take this as a warning. Don't think that just because you have made some achievements, you can ignore the sect's rules. Our Crazy Saber Heavenly Sect has a large number of talented people. We never lack one person!"
All the elders in the hall quickly bowed in salute, showing an appearance of reverence.
The Grand Elder did the same.
The regular meeting continued.
Throughout the meeting, the elders sat rigidly and did not dare to say a word more. It was not until the meeting ended and they saw the sect master off that the elders dispersed.
Several elders walked out of the main hall and passed through several palace gates.
Only then did they dare to let out a long sigh of relief.
"Alas, the Sixth Elder has worked hard for so many years. But after angering the sect master this time, all his efforts will surely come to naught. It's really a pity!"
"The sect master is becoming more and more stubborn. Sooner or later, we'll end up like him!"
"Have any of you received a message from the Sixth Elder? After he joined the Extreme Yang Heavenly Sect, he immediately got a Transformation - Dao Sturgeon. In the blink of an eye, he surpassed thousands of years of hard cultivation. Such good fortune is really enviable!"
"Damn it! We work ourselves to the bone but get so little. We have to be on tenterhooks and smile all day long, like a bunch of lackeys! As soon as the old sixth went there, he got real benefits. I'm so envious!"
"Maybe we should also go to the Extreme Yang Heavenly Sect?"
As the last whispered suggestion sounded, the elders were all shocked.
They exchanged furtive glances, their breathing becoming rapid.
After only a few moments of hesitation.
Looking around and seeing no one, the elders immediately set off.
Far away in the Snow Lake in the southern city.
It was a scene of peace and tranquility, and all the visitors had been driven away.
In the attic in the backyard.
Yi Feng was sitting at a small table on the corridor, staring blankly at dozens of cyan crystal cards.
Xu Baichuan, sitting beside him, smiled and clasped his fists.
"Sir, these are the greeting gifts from the visitors yesterday. I hope you'll accept them!"
Hiss...
Yi Feng felt a sharp pang in his heart!
"Are these all for me?"
One card contained one million immortal crystals. There were fifty or sixty cards on the table, which meant there were fifty or sixty million immortal crystals!
Yi Feng had never had so much money before.
Happiness came too suddenly!
Xu Baichuan replied respectfully, "Sir, please don't be offended. The previous visitors were in a hurry and had nothing valuable on them. They only had some immortal crystals to show their respect. I hope you won't mind."
Yi Feng's heart started beating faster.
Good grief.
These greeting gifts were really generous.
The people on Sunshine Island were really simple - minded. It was truly a nice place!
A group of sect masters and high - ranking experts were so generous just to learn how to fish. The world of the rich was really hard to imagine. This was the life of luxury and comfort.
Yi Feng suddenly felt that life was tough.
Why was there such a big gap between the leaders of different sects?
While Yi Feng was sighing with emotion.
Luo Pengfei also walked upstairs. He took a quick look at Xu Baichuan, and seeing the table full of crystal cards, he immediately presented a box of fruits and bowed in salute.
"Greetings, sir."
"Those crystal cards yesterday were handed over by me."
"I noticed that you've been eating Transformation - Dao Sturgeons recently and might be getting bored, so I specially brought some spiritual fruits. I hope you'll accept them."
As Luo Pengfei presented the gift with a smile, Xu Baichuan also quickly took out a gift box.
Looking at their enthusiastic gestures, Yi Feng was deeply touched again.
At the same time, he knew their intentions.
They just wanted to learn how to fish!
Not wanting to disappoint them, Yi Feng first accepted the gifts.
Then, he began to explain seriously.
After a long explanation, the two men felt that they had benefited greatly. They corrected their previous understanding of fishing, regarded earthworms as the best bait, and also understood many profound principles. They felt as if they were listening to the voice of heaven.
Before they knew it, three days had passed.
The Snow Lake remained peaceful and serene, while the Crazy Saber Heavenly Sect became increasingly deserted.
The empty seats at the regular meeting were getting more and more.
Until the fourth day.
Only Elder Song was left in the main hall, looking at the empty seats all around him.
Lu Renkuang finally sensed something was wrong and slapped the table, standing up.
"Damn it!"
"Why aren't the other elders here today?!"
"They don't even come to the sect's regular meeting. These people are becoming more and more presumptuous! Do they really take my words as a deaf ear?!"
As his angry shout echoed, the main hall was filled with his might and anger, yet it seemed even more empty, like the desolation after people had left.
This time, Elder Song finally spoke up.
"Reporting to the sect master, the elders have joined the Extreme Yang Heavenly Sect."
Whoosh!
Lu Renkuang suddenly turned to look, his face full of shock.
"What did you say?!"
Elder Song quickly stood up and bowed, his face solemn.
"Sect master, the elders have joined the Extreme Yang Heavenly Sect. Many people witnessed this, and it has been spreading like wildfire in the city."
A suppressed voice sounded.
Lu Renkuang's face turned red and then pale. Surprise, disbelief, and finally, furious anger with veins popping out on his forehead. He slammed the table hard!
"Bang!"
With a loud noise, the long table made of immortal jade turned into pieces.
Lu Renkuang roared and cursed, gnashing his teeth in anger.
"Damn it!"
"Damn it all!!!"
"I've treated them well. For thousands of years, they've held the position of elder and enjoyed so many resources in the sect! Yet they've betrayed me. They're a bunch of ungrateful white - eyed wolves!"
The angrier he got, the more he paced back and forth, scolding non - stop.
"What's so good about the Extreme Yang Heavenly Sect? It's just the Fourth Heavenly Sect. They're throwing themselves away like pearls in the dark!"
"It must be the Sixth Elder. He must have been bewitched by Luo Pengfei and led the other elders away. They'll definitely regret it in the future!"
"These ungrateful villains!"
After scolding for several times, Lu Renkuang suddenly turned back and stared closely at Elder Song.
"Elder Song, haven't you been bewitched by the Sixth Elder? Don't you plan to leave with them?"
Facing the suspicious question, Elder Song bowed deeply and replied in a deep voice.
"Sect master!"
"I, Song, have dedicated myself to the Crazy Saber Heavenly Sect for all these years. You've seen it all. No matter what others do, I'll never leave!"
Lu Renkuang was touched and nodded, the suspicion in his eyes disappearing.
"Good, very good!"
"Only through the washing of the waves can the real gold be seen!"
"At this critical moment, I finally know that Elder Song is truly the pillar of our sect. Your loyalty is a thousand times better than those villains!"
With a smiling praise, Lu Renkuang sat down, his expression relaxing.
Most of the anger on his face faded, and a sharp glint appeared in his eyes.
"Let those villains throw themselves away like pearls in the dark!"
"Luo Pengfei's reliance is nothing but that Yi guy. At most, he's at the Fifth - Rank Realm. He's no big deal!"
"To be honest, I once went to the Five - Element Gate and asked the divine fortune - teller Guo Yutong to divine the heavenly secrets. The divine fortune - teller said that I'll have a great opportunity! A mere Fifth - Rank Heavenly Stage is nothing in comparison!"
Elder Song widened his eyes, unable to hide his shock.
"A great opportunity?"

e bizarre and supernatural had descended. The previous emperor was a thoroughgoing tyrant; no longer satisfied with human women, he had set his sights on a stunningly beautiful supernatural entity. He met his end in his bedchamber, drained of all his vital essence. As the legitimate eldest son and crown prince, Wang Hao was thus hastily enthroned, becoming the young emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty. No sooner had he awakened the "Imperial Sign-In Intelligence System" than he was assassinated by a Son of Destiny—a classic villain's opening. The Great Zhou, ravaged by the former emperor's excesses, was in national decline. The great families within its borders harbored their own treacherous schemes, martial sects began to defy the imperial court's decrees, and border armies, their pay and provisions in arrears, grumbled incessantly against the central government. Fortunately, the central capital was still held secure by the half-million Imperial Guards and fifty thousand Imperial Forest Army who obeyed the court's orders, along with the royal family's hidden reserves of power, barely managing to suppress the realm. As the Great Zhou's finances worsened and supernatural activities grew ever more frequent, the court sat atop a volcano. Ambitious plotters everywhere dreamed of overthrowing the dynasty, and even some reclusive ancient powers emerged, attempting to sway the tides of the world. At the first grand court assembly, the civil and military officials nearly came to blows, fighting tooth and nail over the allocation of fifty million taels of silver from the summer tax revenues. The spectacle opened Wang Hao's eyes—the Great Zhou's bureaucracy was not only corrupt but also martially proficient, a cabinet of all-rounders. Some officials even had the audacity to suggest the emperor release funds from the imperial privy purse to address the emergency. Wang Hao suddenly felt weary. Let it all burn.
