Shen Gongbao is reborn, and he's had enough.
In his previous life, he worked tirelessly for the Chan Sect, only to be sacrificed to fill the North Sea's Eye.
This time, he's...
"What? You're saying that the twelfth-grade Creation Lotus seed was taken out by Shen Gongbao? How is that possible!"
"When did Shen Gongbao come to possess such a treasure? Why didn't we know?"
"Even if Shen Gongbao possesses such a treasure, he would never be willing to use it to save Qiongxiao. Are you sure you haven't been deceived by him?"
Upon hearing from Shi Ji that the twelfth-grade Creation Green Lotus seed that saved Qiongxiao was actually made by Shen Gongbao, the three Immortals were filled with disbelief.
Seeing the incredulous expressions on the faces of the three immortals, Shi Ji turned to Shen Gongbao, a smug look on her face, as if to say:
"See? I've avenged you."
However, the smugness on Shi Ji's face vanished in an instant.
After questioning Shen Gongbao's ability to produce a 12th-grade Creation Lotus seed, Ju Liusun became utterly enraged:
"Shen Gongbao, you possess such a supreme treasure as the Twelfth Grade Creation Green Lotus Seed, yet you don't even think of contributing it to our Chan Sect. You heartless bastard! Did you deliberately provoke Master to expel you from the sect so he could keep this treasure for himself?"
The Pure Void Moral True Lord also stared wide-eyed:
"Shen Gongbao, you possess such a supreme treasure as the Twelfth Grade Creation Green Lotus Seed, yet you didn't go to save Huang Tianhua. Instead, you went to save Qiongxiao, who has absolutely no relation to you. Have you forgotten that Huang Tianhua used to call you 'Uncle-Master'? Is this how heartless and ungrateful you are?"
Although the Immortal Wuliang's reaction wasn't as agitated as that of the Pure Void Moral True Lord and the other two, he still kept shaking his head.
“Junior Brother Shen, you have indeed gone too far in this matter. Although you have been expelled from the Chan Sect by your master, Huang Tianhua and Yun Wu still respect you as their teacher. Since you possess such a healing treasure as the Twelfth Grade Creation Green Lotus Seed, how can you not think of them?”
"you……"
Shi Ji was so angry that she couldn't even speak for a moment.
As the Grand Preceptor of the Shang Dynasty, Wen Zhong had been restraining his emotions to avoid affecting the relationship between the Shang Dynasty and the Chan Sect. However, at this moment, he could no longer tolerate the shamelessness of the three, including the Boundless Immortal Elder, and shouted:
"I have never seen such shameless people as you."
Although the Holy Mother of Wudang had heard before that Shen Gongbao's days in the Chan Sect were not easy, it was only at this moment that she realized that what she had heard was far from the reality.
Shen Gongbao endured this group of people for so many years.
Just imagining Shen Gongbao's life over the years, Wudang Shengmu shook her head.
bitter!
It's so bitter!
At this moment, Shen Gongbao was the calmest among them.
Shen Gongbao found it all perfectly reasonable that these people who expounded the teachings were so unreasonable.
Because similar scenarios have happened to him countless times over the years.
Shen Gongbao had lost all desire to explain himself to the people in front of him.
"Now, get out of here!"
Although the words were uncivilized, Shen Gongbao's tone was quite calm, as if he were stating something completely ordinary.
"Shen Gongbao, you think you can just tell us to get lost? You haven't explained the Twelfth-Grade Creation Green Lotus Seed to us yet! Where did you get that Twelfth-Grade Creation Green Lotus Seed? Did you steal it from Master?"
"That's right, Shen Gongbao, I think you're just feeling guilty. If you don't explain the matter of the Twelfth Grade Creation Green Lotus Seed clearly today, we're not done with you!"
“Junior Brother Shen, since you were able to so easily give Qiongxiao a 12th-grade Creation Green Lotus seed, you must have many more hidden away. The Investiture of the Gods is fraught with danger. For the safety of all the disciples of the Chan Sect, I think you should hand over the remaining 12th-grade Creation Green Lotus seeds first. With this contribution, I think Master will allow you to rejoin the sect.”
Two of them played the bad cop and one played the good cop; they really coordinated well!
Looking at the three members of the Chan Sect in front of him, who were sometimes glaring angrily and sometimes trying to persuade him kindly, Shen Gongbao realized that he had underestimated his fellow disciples. Besides their cultivation, their acting skills were also quite impressive!
Unfortunately for him, Shen Gongbao had anticipated this outcome:
"Have you all forgotten? To this day, Yunwu and Huang Tianhua haven't even made it onto the Investiture of the Gods list?"
"What? Yun Wu and Huang Tianhua aren't even on the list yet?"
"It's one thing that the True Goddess Shiji Qingfu doesn't have the authority to directly confer titles on Yunwu and Huang Tianhua, but didn't you say before that the True Goddess Shiji Qingfu's job is to guide those who are listed? Why hasn't she guided Yunwu and Huang Tianhua onto the Investiture of the Gods list yet?"
"Shen Gongbao, you must immediately have Shi Ji bring Yun Wu and Huang Tianhua to the Investiture of the Gods, or don't blame me for reporting you to our master for dereliction of duty!"
"Neglect of duty?"
Shen Gongbao revealed a playful smile, his gaze turning to Shi Ji beside him:
"Shiji, the Pure Void Moral True Lord wants to sue you for dereliction of duty. Are you afraid?"
Shi Ji was clearly taken aback:
"Neglect of duty? What negligence? I only just took over the position of Qingfu Zhengshen today, okay? It's normal for a newbie like me to make mistakes. Even gods can't prevent people from making mistakes!"
But no sooner had she finished speaking than Shi Ji jumped up abruptly, glaring angrily at Qingxu Daode Zhenjun:
"You, Qingxu Moral True Lord, you're deliberately trying to trick me! I almost fell for your trap. What? I was just careless? Since I, Lady Shiji, took office as the Pure Blessing True God, I have been working diligently. It's just that the Investiture of the Gods involves such a wide range that there are bound to be areas that are beyond human reach. In addition, some cultivators died before I took office. Therefore, it is normal to have some omissions. But you must believe that these are all sacrifices that must be made for the progress of the Investiture of the Gods. I, the Pure Blessing True God, can absolutely withstand everyone's supervision."
"you……"
For the first time, Qingxu Daode Zhenjun felt an urge to faint from anger.
How can a person be so shameless?
Fearing that Sun would step forward:
"Shiji, don't forget your place. You're abusing the power of Qingfu Zhengshen so casually. Do you think Tongtian Shengren can protect you in the end?"
Lady Shiji crossed her arms and said in a terrified voice:
"I'm so scared, Senior Brother Julusun. Don't worry, in order to keep the position of Qingfu Zhengshen, I will definitely come to pick you up as soon as you die next time!"
The Immortal Elder Wuliang's face was gloomy, but he did not look at Shiji; instead, he turned his gaze to Shen Gongbao.
"Junior Brother Shen, tell me, how do you plan to include Yunwu and Huang Tianhua in the Investiture of the Gods?"
"Then get out of here right now!"
