How is it possible that such a huge crisis was resolved without the participation of anyone from their Xuanmen sect?!

If everything is really settled as that brat Hu Yue said, then all his previous plans have been ruined!

Thinking of this, Lin Songzi's attitude became even more urgent: "This is not something to be taken lightly or joked about. It concerns the safety of the entire Baiyue City, and even our entire nation!"

Do you even realize the consequences of such a casual remark?!

"I believe Mengmeng. Since she said she has solved it, she certainly wouldn't lie to me!" Hu Yue glanced at Lin Songzi. Although his attitude at this moment seemed upright and righteous, Hu Yue could still sense the greed and ambition hidden deep in his eyes.

Yes, if Mengmeng can't resolve this matter and Xuanmen needs to step in!

So who will ultimately face the enemy?!

Those who charge to the front lines will inevitably suffer injuries; who should be the one to sacrifice themselves?!

If all of this is handled properly, Lin Songzi can naturally shift the blame for the losses to other sects, while if their Maoshan sect is well preserved, their influence in the Xuanmen (Taoist sects) will be able to grow even stronger!

Unfortunately, all these plans were ruined because of Mengmeng's intervention.

The cunning and shrewd Lin Songzi would certainly not let this go easily!

"What are you saying, girl?! We're in such a crisis, is it not even allowed for me to ask?! What do you mean I won't lie to you?!"

But what if there's a problem with this?!

How will you bear the consequences?!

Lin Songzi was furious. At this moment, she didn't care about her image as an elder anymore. She slammed her hand on the table and started hitting the stool at Hu Yue: "You hurry up and call that girl and tell her to come over and explain!"

I know you're close to that girl, but now's not the time to worry about personal relationships, Yue'er, you have to think about the bigger picture!

"I would like to invite them, but what reason could I give?! They are not members of our Xuanmen sect. They were even ridiculed and driven away by you, Master Lin, for trying to help them before!"

You have a lot of face, I'm just a junior, I don't have the face to ask you for that!

In short, Mengmeng told me that this matter has been resolved! If you don't believe me, you can go and check now to see if you can sense the existence of the Yin Gathering Array, wouldn't that be enough?!

Hu Yue didn't hold back and quickly retorted.

Lin Songzi was about to lash out again, but was interrupted by a Buddhist chant that was neither too loud nor too soft.

"Amitabha!" Master Dukong lowered his eyes slightly, put his palms together, and uttered a Buddhist chant, which immediately dissipated the dispute.

"Lin Songzi, I understand what you mean! However, I've heard Yue'er mention this Benefactor Song before. She's helped our Xuanmen more than once or twice!"

The previous incidents were all equally dangerous, but this girl handled them all with ease!

So this time, since she's taken action, there's naturally no problem!

"Master Dukong, your words are far too biased! That girl may have helped our Xuanmen handle some matters before, but you can't blindly trust her now just because she handled things well in the past!"

Putting aside everything else, Master, don't you understand the consequences once the Yin Gathering Array is activated?! Lin Songzi hadn't expected Master Dukong to defend Song Mengmeng and the others so fiercely at this critical moment!

Lin Songzi was so angry that she almost vomited blood, and at this moment she didn't care about respect anymore!

He has always hated Master Dukong intensely!

For no other reason than that, whenever something happens, Master Dukong always prioritizes protecting others and rarely defends the Maoshan Sect!

This is really hard to understand!

We're all members of the Xuanmen (Taoist sect). Even if they, from Maoshan, consider the consequences more when dealing with matters, isn't that just human nature?

Although they are both within the Xuanmen sect, doesn't the sect itself still exist?!

If everyone followed the Xuanmen's requirements and rushed headlong into every situation, the sect's manpower would be exhausted. Who would then be in charge of the Xuanmen?!

What was lost was the right to speak!

"For the past ten years or so, whenever your Xuanmen sect has encountered problems, you have always made excuses and found reasons to shirk responsibility! Of course, I can understand your actions!"

In order to preserve the strength of their own sect, this old monk can't really say anything!

But since that's the case, it's only natural that you won't get any good resources or help from the Xuanmen!

Why do I and the Xuanmen sects favor sects like Qingcheng Mountain and Huashan? Lin Songzi, do you really not understand?!

For decades, whenever something happened or a crisis occurred, it was always the disciples of sects like Qingcheng Mountain and Huashan who stepped forward!

Therefore, among the more than one hundred elite members of the Xuanmen sect who have perished so far, including the leaders of Huashan Sect, Qingcheng Mountain Sect, and the top disciple of Emei Mountain, has Maoshan Sect ever had a single name on the list?

So, what gives you the right to enjoy the benefits that these heroic spirits risked their lives for?!

Over the years, you have done more harm than good!

We never see you doing anything good on a regular basis, but you're incredibly good at setting traps and framing people!

Leaving aside distant examples, this morning Luo Yueling and her group from Qingcheng Mountain went to the Zhao Group and triggered the Yin Gathering Array. Can you honestly say that you weren't involved in that?!

Lin Songzi, none of us are fools! Don't try to play the victim and fool this old monk!

Faced with Lin Songzi's questioning, Master Dukong remained calm and composed. He clasped his hands together and continued chanting a Buddhist mantra before speaking, ruthlessly stripping Lin Songzi bare, leaving her completely shameless.

Even Hu Yue could see what he was anxious about. Master Dukong wasn't stupid either; he had already seen it all clearly, including the chaos that happened this morning.

Even if he wasn't there, he could still piece together most of the story just from hearing the simple report.

Since the passing of the previous leader, the new generation of the Maoshan Sect has been utterly hopeless, each one worse than the last!

They're useless at everything else, but when it comes to dividing up the spoils, they're like hyenas that have smelled blood, running faster than anyone else! Sometimes they don't even care whether the spoils belong to them or not; they just shamelessly claim a share for everyone who sees it!

In the past, he might have stepped in to appease the situation, considering the stability of the Xuanmen sect, but this time...

Lin Songzi is clearly aiming to shake the very foundation of the Qingcheng Mountain faction. If he tries to smooth things over again, he might really discourage most of the righteous people in the Xuanmen sect.
