Text Chapter 3244 Unfathomable
If Taoist Qingsong had offended other Supreme Elders in Penglai, it might not have too serious consequences. After all, under normal circumstances, a Supreme Elder of a sect is unlikely to oppose its sect leader, let alone be an enemy. As long as it's not something that goes too far, both parties have a certain degree of tolerance and room for negotiation.
However, Taoist Qingsong offended Master Pengwei, who was the Supreme Emperor among the Supreme Elders!
Therefore, Taoist Qingsong hurriedly relaxed his tone at this time and said: "Master Pengwei, you are naturally qualified to teach me a lesson. There is no doubt about this. I was just considering the interests of the sect and was worried that Penglai Immortal Mountain would offend the enemy. , so in a hurry——"
"Taoist Qingsong, you don't need to explain, let me do it." Master Pengwei smiled lightly, interrupted Taoist Qingsong, and then he continued, "Gu Qingyi, the mission to go to the Yuanqiao Mountain ruins, but Qingsong Did you personally appoint the Taoist?"
"Yes." Taoist Qingsong didn't dare to talk nonsense and nodded in agreement.
"Since it is a task assigned by you personally, then Gu Qingyi's move is not for her personally, but for the entire Penglai Immortal Mountain. Is this correct?" Master Peng Wei continued.
Although Taoist Qingsong felt a little bad, he could not refute Master Pengwei's words at this time, so he could only nodded again.
"Since Gu Qingyi is indeed on a mission on behalf of our Penglai Immortal Mountain, once she is in danger, any monk who attacks her will be an enemy of our Penglai Immortal Mountain. I believe you cannot deny this. Whether it is the abbot or Yingzhou , even if it is the Hairen clan, anyone who dares to challenge the majesty of our Penglai Immortal Mountain should be punished! However, you, Taoist Qingsong, not only did not think of ways to punish our enemies, but instead came to punish our own disciples, punish Your disciple, do you think this is the right thing to do?" Grandmaster Peng Wei pressed forward step by step, causing Taoist Qingsong to feel chills running down his spine.
"This... Master, I know what you said makes sense. However, Gu Qingyi has provoked the Hairen clan this time and killed thousands of Immortal-Slaying Golden Guards. The Hairen clan will definitely settle this debt." You have to figure it out for us. You also know the powerful strength of the Hairen clan in the endless Aral Sea. If we keep protecting Gu Qingyi, then we can only force the Hairen clan to go to war with us. At that time, all life will be in ruins. I don’t know. How many Penglai disciples will die because of this, so I do this for the sake of the overall situation!" Taoist Qingsong's tone was calm, and he argued hard, which resonated with a few Penglai monks, who nodded secretly.
"The Sea People Clan? Immortal-Slaying Golden Guard?" Master Peng Wei said, "Well, the Sea People Clan is indeed troublesome. They are the nightmare in the endless Aral Sea. We Penglai monks have suffered a lot at their hands. Similar incidents have happened before. We, the Supreme Elders, have never asked about this matter. Therefore, you, Taoist Qingsong, certainly think that we, the Supreme Elders, do not dare to become enemies of the Hairen clan."
"Don't dare!" Taoist Qingsong said quickly.
"It doesn't matter, I know you think so." Master Peng Wei said, "In the past, Penglai disciples were attacked or killed by monks from the Hairen clan. We ignored them because we really didn't want to cause trouble. However, it was also because of us. The Penglai disciples themselves are incompetent! Hairen are also monks and the same creatures. Why will we definitely lose and die when we meet them? But since we lose, there is nothing to say. It is like two children fighting. , if one of the parties loses, shouldn’t the parents take matters into their own hands? Therefore, those Penglai monks who lost in the past and died were not good at learning and cannot be blamed on others! But today is different. Gu Qingyi won today. Moreover, he has won glory and brought glory to the entire Penglai Immortal Mountain. In this endless salty sea, among the three Immortal Mountains, which young monk has killed thousands of Immortal-Slaying Golden Guards?"
"Master, that's not my fault alone." At this time, Gu Qingyi felt a little embarrassed.
"No, that's your credit! Your credit!" Master Peng Wei said, "I only know one thing. You won and gave us Penglai Immortal Mountain a face! As for whether the Hairen clan wants to go to war, they want to How to start a war is up to us old immortals. If we can't handle it, then we deserve to die!"
As soon as Master Peng Wei said these words, he immediately aroused many emotions from the Penglai monks, and also inspired everyone's passion for fighting, because the world of cultivation is such a world of the jungle, where the strong are respected. Today, since Gu Qingyi won, he killed Of the thousands of Immortal-Slaying Golden Guards, she is the winner and the strong one, so what reason does Penglai Immortal Mountain have to severely punish or even execute their disciples? Shouldn't the disciples who brought glory to the sect like this be well cultivated and well protected?
Once they figured this out, the monks in Penglai Immortal Mountain suddenly felt relieved, and naturally they sided with Gu Qingyi. At this time, some monks can't help but think that during the time that Taoist Qingsong was the master, although the strength of Penglai Immortal Mountain has been steadily improving, it has never been able to become a well-deserved leader among the three major Immortal Mountains, nor can it achieve greater success in the endless Aral Sea. High reputation, so in some sense, Master Pengwei's evaluation of Taoist Qingsong is actually right - Taoist Qingsong's behavior is still a bit weak!
The Supreme Elders of Penglai Immortal Mountain selected Taoist Qingsong as their leader. On the one hand, they valued his cultivation and talent. On the other hand, they also valued Taoist Qingsong’s strategy. They believed that Taoist Qingsong could lead Penglai Immortal Mountain to a higher and further level. However, This time Taoist Qingsong's performance disappointed the Supreme Elders of Penglai Immortal Mountain. Therefore, this time Master Peng Wei appeared in person, not just to support Gu Qingyi. If it was just to support Gu Qingyi, it would not be possible at all. His physical presence was required.
Regrettably, only a very few people understood the purpose of Master Peng Wei's appearance. Even Taoist Qingsong himself, an insider, did not understand it and thought that Master Peng Wei was simply supporting Gu Qingyi. That’s all. Now that Master Pengwei is determined to support Gu Qingyi, Taoist Qingsong believes that it is meaningless for him to continue "arguing with reason" today, so he is ready to let Gu Qingyi go for the time being. Anyway, there will be opportunities in the future. There is no need to rush to deal with her.
"Since Master Pengwei thinks that I should not punish Gu Qingyi, then according to your wishes, I will not punish her for the time being." Taoist Qingsong said this, thinking that he had already made a concession, and expected that Gu Qingyi and Peng Master Wei will not continue to pursue the case. After all, he, Qingsong Taoist, is also the sect leader of Penglai Immortal Mountain.
Master Pengwei did not express his position immediately, but asked Gu Qingyi: "Gu Qingyi, what do you think of Taoist Qingsong's move?"
