"I think we should pay more attention to what Elder Zitan says before anything is decided. After all, there are so many disciples from the sect watching here. Elder Zitan wouldn't want them to have a bad impression of you, right?"
When Zitan heard Wen Hai's words, his face darkened.
If it were him in the past, he would naturally be more cautious.
But it’s different now. Wen Hai will just scare him. In the face of real strength, verbal threats are just a child’s game.
"The Sect Leader has come here to intercede for Master She. Someone who doesn't know would think that the four main peaks are united and won't give the other peaks a chance. After all, Shen Qingyi has only just returned to the sect and hasn't made any contributions, yet the four main peaks have given her the status of a seed candidate for the sect's elite disciples... and directly skipped over our other peaks. How will those disciples who are fighting so hard and practicing day and night think about this?"
Zi Tan's voice was loud enough for the sect disciples who only dared to watch from afar to hear.
After hearing these words, some disciples' expressions changed.
However, due to the large number of high-level cultivators here and the fact that the sect leader Wen Hai's cultivation was much higher than theirs, he did not dare to speak.
But a trace of dissatisfaction rose in my heart.
Why?!
Why?! They worked so hard to cultivate, even risking their lives to improve themselves to obtain what they wanted, and that person could get it without any effort?!
Was it because she was a bit more talented that she was accepted as a personal disciple by She Zhenjun of Tianshui Peak, one of the four main peaks?
"And now, this elite disciple recognized by your four main peaks has disregarded fellow disciples' friendship and openly hurt them. I dare to ask, Sect Master, if you continue to favor them, wouldn't that be unworthy of your leadership? How will we, the peak masters and elders, convince the public in the future? How will other factions and sects view our Lingdao Sect?! Sect Master, you absolutely cannot act like this for your own selfish reasons! Although I, Zi Tan, am a first-rank elder, at least I know that the lives of sect disciples must be cherished and respected! Therefore, I hope Sect Master will think twice!"
Zitan's voice was a little excited, but also a little helpless and disappointed. It seemed that he was helpless to save the face of the leader, but he also had to take care of all the disciples.
This made some disciples recall what they had suffered and feel more and more unequal.
The other elders and peak masters who followed could not help but look at each other in confusion.
When they felt Zi Tan's gaze, they all bowed and saluted.
"I hope the Sect Master will think twice!"
Seeing the group of elders and peak masters acting like this, some disciples finally couldn't control their anger.
"That's right! Shen Qingyi openly attacked and harmed the disciples of the Deacon Hall! And this She Zhenjun still protected him! Now the Sect Leader wants to protect both of them! He even seriously injured the North Hall Master of the Deacon Hall! No matter how you look at it, this looks like a cover-up!"
"This is unfair! Why? Doesn't the sect say that all disciples are equal? If someone commits a crime, even direct disciples and menial disciples must be treated the same! But what is in front of us now?!"
"Aren't they clearly treating us like fools?! These sect's various rules are probably designed just for us disciples!"
"If this matter isn't properly resolved today... I... I'll just quit being a disciple of the Lingdao Sect. So what?! What's the point of staying in this sect? I might as well go out and become a free cultivator!"
