The First Immortal of Swordsmanship
Chapter 778: Ulterior motives
Yuan Linning was stunned.
She had suppressed her anger, but before she could express it, she was scolded by Lu Changming, which made her pretty face look ugly.
But before she could speak, Lu Changming snorted coldly: "Fortunately there was no conflict, otherwise, I will not be able to spare you today!"
Yuan Linning's cheeks turned red from holding back.
She is an emperor, and since she attained enlightenment, almost no one dares to be rude to her. Even those characters in the sect who are of higher rank than her are all polite to her.
Who would have ever thought that he would be scolded unceremoniously by Lu Changming at this moment?
Seeing this scene, the old blind man and the Nine Priests were stunned, and they almost couldn't believe their eyes.
Lu Changming was angry and stern, and he scolded Yuan Lining, which was completely beyond their expectations.
Su Yi looked on coldly, probably realizing that Lu Changming's actions were just for his own benefit.
In Su Yi's view, Cui Jingyan's face alone was not enough to make the third elder of Meng Po Palace have such a strong attitude.
Then, the problem undoubtedly lies with the master and disciple.
Thinking of this, Su Yi couldn't help but glance at the old man in Taoist robes.
The old man in Taoist robes smiled warmly and nodded slightly.
At this time, Yuan Linning took a deep breath and said: "Uncle Master, you don't know the reason for what happened today. No matter what the reason is for you to come, in my opinion, it's better not to get involved. "
"After all, now that the master of the palace is away, all affairs of the sect are handled by the high priest. It would be inappropriate for you to interfere rashly."
Although his words were polite, his attitude became stronger.
Suddenly, the atmosphere in the venue became more and more depressing.
Lu Changming's face suddenly darkened and he said sternly: "Nonsense! As the emperor of Meng Po Palace, you want to do such disgraceful things on your own territory. If you really succeed, it will be a shame for all of us!" "
Speaking of this, he said word by word: "I will leave my words here. As long as I am here, you will never allow this kind of thing to happen!"
Yuan Linning looked uncertain.
Everyone could see that this third priest with the title of "Ice Flame Underworld Emperor" was extremely angry inside.
"Uncle Master, please calm down. This matter is not the fault of the three sacrifices."
Suddenly, a deep voice sounded.
I saw Gu Zhongxun, the high priest of Meng Po Hall, coming out of thin air. He had an immortal air and elegant sleeves. After arriving, he first clasped his fists and saluted everyone around him.
Then he turned to look at Lu Changming, with a look of shame on his face, and said, "It's only my fault that I didn't explain it clearly before, so the three priests were a little abrupt when they did things."
Everyone has different expressions.
No one is stupid, and it is naturally clear that what the high priest said is just an excuse.
The reason why he apologized was just because he didn't want to offend Lu Changming.
But Lu Changming snorted coldly: "Abrupt? If I hadn't arrived in time, the three priests would have made a big mistake!"
Yuan Linning's face became increasingly ugly and she was about to argue.
The high priest smiled bitterly and said: "Uncle Master is right. According to my original plan, I hoped to trade with Su Xiaoyou. As long as he hands over the Cangqing Seed, we will give him generous compensation."
"The three priests must have talked about this matter with Su Xiaoyou."
As he spoke, he looked at Su Yi.
Su Yi smiled and said, "I did say that."
Lu Changming's expression suddenly softened a lot, and he said to the three priests: "Although it was a misunderstanding, you made a mistake before, and you should personally apologize and make amends."
The high priest frowned.
Yuan Linning's pretty face turned livid. She seemed to be in disbelief and said: "Uncle, do you want me to apologize to...him!?"
The voice was full of anger.
For an emperor like her, Lu Changming's proposal was not very harmful, but it was extremely insulting.
"I've done something wrong and apologize. What's wrong with that?"
Lu Changming scolded.
Yuan Linning was so angry that her hands and feet were trembling slightly. She felt that Lu Changming at this moment did not look like the third elder of Meng Po Palace, but seemed to be in the same group as Su Yi!
At this time, the high priest suddenly looked solemn and said: "Three priests, my uncle is right. In this matter, we were indeed at fault in the first place, and we should apologize."
Yuan Linning was silent.
After a while, she turned around with difficulty, looked at the ground, and said with a dull expression: "I was the one who was rude before, I hope you don't care about it."
When everyone saw this, their minds were in turmoil.
The mysterious way is like heaven, and the emperor is like God!
Emperors like Yuan Linning, who also serve as priests in the Mengpo Hall, are regarded as supreme beings like gods in the hearts of monks in the world. They can only be respected and dare not slander.
But now, whether due to the situation or being forced to do nothing, an emperor like her bows to Su Yi!
This scene is undoubtedly shocking!
The high priest looked complicated.
Lu Changming's eyes flashed.
The old man in Taoist robes frowned slightly, while his apprentice, the young man in white robes, looked shocked.
The old blind man's heart thumped. At this moment, it seemed that Su Yi had the upper hand, but Yuan Lining probably hated Su Yi to the core!
The Nine Priests secretly breathed a sigh of relief. At least this conflict did not break out. This was enough.
Cui Jingyan was also stunned.
She didn't expect that Lu Changming's attitude would be so strong and arrogant, and he would actually suppress the three priests Yuan Lining in one fell swoop and have to bow their heads!
But for Su Yi, such an apology had no sense of achievement at all.
In the previous life, emperors like Yuan Linning were not qualified to be in his eyes, let alone such an apology, which was not sincere in the first place, but was just a forced act.
What Su Yi dislikes the most is bullying others by taking advantage of their power.
At this time, Lu Changming smiled, cupped his hands towards Su Yi and said, "It was indeed a misunderstanding before. I hope you don't blame me."
He is the third elder of Meng Po Palace, and he is also an emperor of Xuanyou Realm.
But now, he took the initiative to come to Su Yi, and even called Su Yi, a young man in the spirit realm, a "fellow Taoist"!
This face is enough.
If it were an ordinary spiritual monk, he would have been flattered and fearful of returning the favor.
But Su Yi ignored it.
He looked at Yuan Lining and said, "I know you are not convinced. To be honest, I am not happy either. You can come to me when I leave Meng Po Hall."
After a pause, he said: "As I said before, by then, I will teach you how to do things."
Everyone was stunned.
Even Lu Changming, the high priest, and the Nine Priests all had expressions of disbelief.
How arrogant this kid must be, he just threatened to teach an emperor how to do things! ?
The old man in Taoist robes looked strange.
Cui Jingyan's pretty face was dull, and she murmured in her heart: "Why does this guy insist on being in power and not showing mercy to others? Why can't he just accept it when he's ready? How could my ancestor value such a bold guy?"
Yuan Linning laughed angrily, too angry to speak.
In the thirteen hundred years since her practice, she has never been so slandered and provoked as she is today.
I have never been so angry as to be going crazy like today!
A dignified person, on his own territory, was not only forced to apologize to a young man in the spiritual realm, but was also threatened by the other party to teach her how to do things!
Unless you experience it yourself, it is impossible to describe the shame and anger.
"Okay! I will definitely go when the time comes!"
After a while, Yuan Lining put down these words coldly and walked away.
She didn't want to stay any longer.
She didn't want to see Su Yi again for a moment, otherwise, she was worried that she would kill him at all costs!
"Uncle Master, say goodbye!"
The high priest also seemed angry and turned away with a cold face.
Seeing this scene, the old blind man's heart sank. This time, he was completely torn apart!
It was foreseeable that when he and Su Yi left, they would inevitably suffer revenge from the three priests.
"Alas! How could things become like this..."
The nine priests sighed.
Cui Jingyan's beautiful appearance was constantly changing. She originally asked the Third Elder to resolve the conflict, but she didn't expect that the final result would be like this...
"Fellow Daoist Su, you are too impulsive."
At this moment, Lu Changming couldn't help frowning and sighing softly.
Su Yi smiled and asked, "Isn't this what you want to see?"
Lu Changming was startled, then frowned and said, "Fellow Taoist... what do you mean?"
Su Yi's eyes were deep and he said, "Do you have to expose me? If you came to help sincerely, you wouldn't have created such a 'self-defeating' situation."
As soon as these words came out, everyone present trembled in their hearts and their expressions changed.
Lu Changming frowned more and more, and said displeasedly: "Fellow Daoist Su, do you think I am always causing trouble on purpose?"
Su Yi said calmly: "You know better than me. Since we are resolving conflicts, there is no need to anger the woman named Yuan Lining, because doing so will only make her hate me even more, even if I don't say that in the end. If so, Yuan Linning will never give up."
Immediately, he smiled and said: "Of course, I am too lazy to speculate on why you did this, and I don't care if you are hated."
After thinking about it for a moment, everyone tasted some different flavors, and their expressions changed accordingly.
Cui Jingyan's beautiful appearance is ever-changing. If it is true as Su Yi said, then Lu Changming's previous actions are indeed no different from making a fight or fanning the flames!
Lu Changming's face darkened, and he was obviously angry, and said: "Okay, I came to help out of kindness, but in the end, I was treated like a villain by fellow Daoist Su. If I had known this, I really shouldn't have gotten involved!"
As he spoke, he cupped his fists towards the old man in Taoist robes and said, "Brother Taoist, I'll take the first step."
The third elder of Meng Po Palace left angrily.
Seeing this, the nine priests sighed and turned away.
He really didn't want to get involved in this muddy water anymore.
"Master Su, are you...thinking too much?"
Cui Jingyan looked like she didn't believe it, so she couldn't help but ask.
The Third Elder was the reinforcement she invited. If the other party's intentions were impure, she would not be able to escape the blame.
Su Yi did not explain, but said with a smile: "I wish I had thought too much."
He had gone through so many intrigues in his previous life, how could he not see Lu Changming's thoughts?
"It's my fault for not thinking carefully about this matter."
The old man in Taoist robes suddenly spoke and said apologetically, "Lu Changming originally didn't want to get involved in this matter, but I tried to persuade him to come forward, and even let him use the topic to make the matter go to such an extent. I hope my Taoist friend will forgive me."
As soon as these words came out, Cui Jingyan felt a chill in his heart.
The girl finally dared to believe that Su Yi's previous speculation was not overthinking, but that the problem did lie with the third elder Taishang!
