Chapter 34 Sect Conference Chen Liqing: I am rude
Chen Wei's words stirred up a thousand waves in Duan Zhou's heart. Chen Wei slept soundly at night, conserving his energy for the sect meeting the next day, but the dragon rolled on the bed until the middle of the night, staring with eyes wide open, thinking about the dragon's life.
Before he experienced the thunder tribulation, he was a black snake. Later, when he was finally about to transform into a dragon, he was foiled by a thunderbolt from the sky and turned into a dragon faster than he actually could.
The good thing is that it has indeed become a real dragon, but the bad news is that the thunder from the sky has left some hidden injuries in its body, and it really needs recuperation.
Duan Zhou never mentioned it, but he knew very well that his spiritual power was very strong at present, strong enough to sweep across an entire sect, but the problem was that his hidden injuries were also very serious. If he really fought with anyone, even if he won, it would actually be a hundred disadvantages and no benefit to him.
"Tomorrow..." What he said was not completely a lie to intimidate Shen Wei. It was just a little exaggerated based on the facts. However, it seemed that he not only got the answer he wanted, but also seemed to... seemed to have waited for more.
Duan Zhou sighed deeply.
So the next morning, when Chen Wei saw Duan Zhou, he noticed the dark circles under his eyes. Chen Wei was stunned for a moment, his eyes fell on Duan Zhou's eyes, and he asked carefully: "Brother Duan, are you... suffering from insomnia?"
"Yeah." Duan Zhou responded coldly.
"Then... maybe he's used to his bed." Seeing that Duan Zhou was in a bad mood, Chen Wei even took the initiative to find an excuse for him.
Duan Zhou did not answer. He just scanned Chen Wei from head to toe, and then said, "In fact, with your strength, even without the Ten Thousand Beast Sect, you can still run rampant in the entire cultivation world."
“If you can’t even protect the ones you want to protect, how can you run rampant? You’re nothing but a stray dog.” Shen Wei said.
Duan Zhou rarely heard such a straightforward rejection from Shen Wei, and it was a bit fresh to hear it for the first time. His eyes fell on Shen Wei, and he met Shen Wei's slightly smiling eyes. After a moment of silence, he said, "You are so arrogant, worthy of being Sect Master Shen."
Behind Chen Wei's smile, he couldn't even cry, his fate was tied to that of the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect, if the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect was gone, he would be gone too, so how could he run rampant?
When the disciples of the Sword Sect came over to lead the way, Chen Wei discovered that next to their Ten Thousand Beast Sect was the Weapon Refining Sect, and behind them was the Pill Sect, as well as other sects. With that said, Chen Wei suddenly realized that the position given to the Ten Thousand Beast Sect was actually in the middle.
To put it in a positive way, this is the importance attached to the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect. To put it in a negative way, this is the fear of the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect.
"Sect Master Shen." The Sword Sect disciple said respectfully, "Please ask Sect Master Shen and this young man to follow me."
Chen Wei nodded, followed the Sword Sect disciples, and went directly to the venue of the sect conference. The Sword Sect arranged the sect conference directly on the top of the mountain, saying that it was both artistic and cost-effective.
Chen Wei and Duan Zhou sat down in their seats. Duan Zhou was still wearing the snake mask. He looked a little sloppy, but the wine glass he casually shook showed his extraordinaryness.
"This is the Weapon Refining Sect. They used to use the fur, bones, and claws of spirit beasts to refine weapons. Now that they don't have these supplies, the Weapon Refining Sect can't forge better weapons out of thin air." Duan Zhou raised his hand and scanned it quietly. He whispered, "Dan Sect, I don't need to introduce this. You know it best."
"Understood." Chen Wei nodded, and lowered his voice and said, "The one looking over there must be Chen Liqing, right?"
"Yeah." Duan Zhou nodded.
However, just as they finished speaking, they saw Chen Liqing, who was supposed to be sitting in the Dan Sect's seat, stand up and walk towards Chen Wei. Duan Zhou subconsciously raised his hand and pressed it on his sword, his eyes fixed on Chen Liqing.
Chen Liqing also recognized the person wearing the snake mask in the crowd at a glance.
"Daoyou." Chen Liqing was indeed coming towards Duanzhou and Shen Wei. He walked to the front, bowed slightly and asked, "I have heard of the great name of Master Shen of the Ten Thousand Beast Sect for a long time. It is a great honor to meet him today."
Shen Wei nodded.
"I should have visited the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect last night, but unfortunately there was a thief in Danzong's residence, so Liqing had to deal with matters within the sect. I apologize for delaying my visit to the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect." Chen Liqing was wearing the Danzong's unique yellow robe with the Danzong's logo on his chest. His face looked a little pale, probably because he had lost something, so his complexion was not good and he looked very haggard.
"No need, you are too polite." Chen Wei said with a smile, "You and I were both invited by the Sword Sect."
Chen Liqing smiled, and finally set his eyes on Duan Zhou who was beside Chen Wei. It was obvious that his original purpose was to kill Duan Zhou, and he just used Chen Wei as a cover.
"Why is this Taoist friend wearing a mask and refusing to see anyone?" Chen Liqing said with a smile, "Could it be the famous Qinglong Peak Master?"
Duan Zhou had expected Chen Liqing to come. He did not answer, but just looked up at Chen Liqing. With just this one glance, Chen Liqing's face changed slightly and he subconsciously took a step back. When he was ready to take a closer look again, he saw Shen Wei standing in front of him.
"This..." Chen Liqing wanted to see it clearly, he wanted to get a result, but he was stopped by Shen Wei just as he stepped forward. Shen Wei raised the corner of his lips and said, "What do you want to do?"
Shen Wei asked directly, without even a hint of greeting. Anyone with a brain would know that Shen Wei was upset. Sure enough, Chen Liqing stood still, realizing that his behavior had crossed the line. He took a deep breath and said respectfully, "I'm sorry, Sect Master Shen. I thought I saw an old friend just now, so I wanted to see it more clearly."
"Old friend?" Chen Wei looked at Chen Liqing and said, "Maybe I saw it wrong."
It would be fine if Chen Liqing didn't say he was an old friend, but if he said he was an old friend, Chen Wei would have to stand in the way.
When Chen Liqing saw Chen Wei protecting the people behind him without making a sound, a dark color flashed across his eyes. Finally, he bowed and apologized, then turned around and left, sitting back in his seat. Other people from Danzong walked up to him and whispered a few words, but Chen Liqing just nodded slightly and didn't say much.
The leader of the Sword Sect came, carrying the token of the sect conference. He put the token into the groove, and the sect conference officially began.
Chen Wei had read the program of the event before participating. The host would give a speech first, and then the various sects would start showing off their skills. There would even be challenges between the younger generations, and the best among them could challenge the elders on the stage.
If he loses, it can be regarded as receiving instruction from the elders. If he wins, he can be said to be famous in the world of cultivation. His potential is simply unlimited. Every cultivator would want to become famous through this.
Chen Wei thought that the speech would probably end in just a few words, but he obviously underestimated it. The Sword Sect's leader stood on the stage and began to talk about the Sword Sect's development history, the Sword Sect's leaders of all generations, and told everyone how many battles the Sword Sect had participated in.
Chen Wei was confused by what he heard, and it seemed that he had no memories of these things.
"Sword Sect, the sword is the foundation of weapons. No weapon can be compared with the sword, especially for sword cultivators. For sword cultivators, the sword is his second life..." The Sword Sect leader was still talking when Duan Zhou came to Chen Wei and whispered, "Sit down first. I'll go out for a while."
"Where are you going?" Shen Wei was startled. He quietly pointed at the stage, indicating that the current situation was very dangerous.
"Where are those arrogant words you said yesterday?" Duan Zhou asked jokingly.
"Doesn't that mean it's not time for me to die alone?" Shen Wei said immediately.
I don't know which word touched Duan Zhou's sensitive nerves. His face changed slightly, but soon returned to normal. He just said: "Since Sect Master Shen doesn't want me to leave, then I will stay here."
He sat back down next to Shen Wei.
"Brother Duan, do you have something important to tell me? I can go with you. I am now..." Chen Wei looked at the Sword Sect's leader who was still giving a speech on the stage. After listening to his speech, he felt that it was too early for the speech to end. After all, the Sword Sect had a history of 300 years, but it had only talked about the 125th year, not even halfway through.
"I estimate that the Sword Sect Master will have to speak for another hour before he can finish." Chen Liqing came over without knowing when. He seemed to know the Sword Sect Master's temper very well. He bowed and said, "The Sword Sect Master loves his sect the most, so he always speaks for a long time at each sect meeting. Sect Master Shen is the Sect Master of the Myriad Beasts Sect, so he should know this very well, right?"
Just as Chen Wei was about to answer, he felt someone poked his waist. He subconsciously turned his head and saw Duan Zhouxie leaning aside, his eyes lightly falling on him, and the hilt of the sword was the culprit that had just poked his waist.
Chen Wei sighed. He certainly still remembered the advice Duan Zhou had given him. Although he didn't know what the grudge was between Duan Zhou and Chen Liqing in front of him, it didn't stop him from listening to his human cultivator.
Human monks are life-saving talismans, and the life-saving talismans are more important than anything else.
“Is this the rule for the younger generation of Dan Sect?” Chen Wei said indifferently, “Dan Sect and Wanshou Sect are not familiar with each other.”
The implication was that Chen Liqing asked too many questions. A slight blush appeared on Chen Liqing's fair face, and then he nodded, cupped his hands and apologized, "It's my fault for being rude."
After saying this, he turned around and returned to his seat in Danzong, but his eyes were still looking towards Shen Wei.
It would be more accurate to say that he was looking at a broken boat rather than a sinking ship.
Duan Zhou also noticed Chen Liqing's gaze. He looked at him through the mask without saying a word, but that look made Chen Liqing feel a chill down his spine.
