There's not much to say about the meeting itself; it was pretty much as it was supposed to be.
Wu Er said a few words, but because he needed to maintain the dignity of the sect leader, he rarely spoke.
Talking too much makes you seem verbose and can easily make people dislike you.
As for the task of providing supplementary explanations, it was naturally left to Xiao Mingmu.
After all, Xiao Mingmu was very clever and authoritative, and his words were very convincing.
This is how they behaved, and the reactions of those below... were incredibly varied.
A small number, a very small number, became worried at the time, and were filled with righteous indignation, wanting to share the burdens of the world.
Of course, this is only a small percentage, less than half a percent of people have this reaction.
Most people agree verbally, but secretly have their own agendas.
You can tell from their expressions.
Immortals have exceptional observational skills; if they carefully observe a person's micro-expressions, they can even achieve the effect of mind reading.
After exchanging a few more pleasantries, the group of high-ranking officials from Pengshan dispersed and went about their business.
After everyone left, Wu Er relaxed his tense expression.
"Those on the ninth floor all want to profit from this; they're all harboring ulterior motives..."
Wu Er shook his head and said this.
Upon hearing this, Xiao Mingmu said, "Senior brother, you should know that this is how people's hearts are."
Upon hearing this, Wu Er nodded in agreement.
That's just how people are; everyone has their own thoughts.
What does it mean to have the world in one's heart?
Do such people exist?
It probably doesn't exist.
Even those so-called people in books who claim to have the world in their hearts are actually just driven by self-interest and confused by emotions and reason.
This proves the point.
If a person doesn't look out for themselves, they'll be punished by heaven and earth!
Because his junior brother was standing next to him, Wu Er didn't have any cover.
He lacked the majesty of an immortal and the solemnity of a sect leader... all he had was the expression of an ordinary person.
People always love to idolize certain individuals, but little do they know that those individuals are unwilling to accept such brilliance.
The light of God is so bright that it can extinguish the spark of humanity.
Now, Wu Er, an ordinary person, has only one word written on his face: worry.
“Senior brother…” Xiao Mingmu suddenly called out, “Leave the matter of people’s hearts to me.”
After saying this, Xiao Mingmu said nothing more.
He knew what kind of person his senior brother was, so he remained silent, not even offering words of comfort.
Footsteps approached, and Xiao Mingmu left.
Only Wu Er remained there. He slapped his face and said, "How pathetic... How can my junior brother see me like this?"
After blaming himself, Wu Er decided not to stay there any longer.
There was no one here.
......
Once outside, Wu Er didn't plan to wander around as usual, but instead decided to patrol the mountain.
Recently, all parties have been on edge, although on the surface things appear calm, but this is just a facade.
As the head of Pengshan Sect, I must take responsibility on such a day.
So Wu Er began patrolling the mountain gate.
Although it looked like a casual stroll, it was actually quite different. This time, he unleashed his divine sense and conducted a thorough search of the area around Pengshan Gate.
Believe it or not, he actually detected a demonic aura.
Moreover, this demonic aura felt very familiar.
After thinking for a moment, Wu Er remembered that a demon king named Meng Ji had entered the sect a few days ago.
"They haven't left yet; they're really persistent."
Wu Er didn't know how to evaluate Meng Ji.
Having been beaten up by himself and Zhang Wu each, he is now lying low at Pengshan Gate, which shows his patience.
He doesn't usually care, but now Wu Er is going to take charge.
This is a demon king. Leaving such a demon king near the sect is like leaving a bomb.
If it explodes unexpectedly, it could be fatal.
Thinking it over, Wu Er used a quick step to move to the location of Mengji's demonic aura.
The scene before me blurred, and I found myself at a riverbank.
Although the Pengshan area lacks water, thanks to the development efforts of Wuer over the years, there are now quite a few rivers.
Beneath my feet lies fine sand mixed with pebbles, and before me stretches a gently rippling river.
The scenery, though not spectacular, is serene and elegant.
Suddenly, a gust of evil wind arose.
The fine sand on the ground was blown up, and the water surface rippled.
Wu Er also felt a slight chill on his neck.
It was just slightly cool.
Reach out, back, and gently grab.
"You still dare to make a move?"
A sentence floated out of Wu Er's mouth.
These words immediately calmed the surrounding wind and waves, causing the drifting sand to settle back to the ground.
Seeing that things had calmed down, Wu Er let go of his hand and then turned around.
But behind Wu Er stood a person... or more precisely, a demon who had transformed into human form.
He wore a linen outfit and had an ordinary-looking face.
Meng Ji's face remained expressionless, or rather, he suppressed his emotions.
Wu Er was also direct, saying, "We've stayed for so long, it's time to go."
Upon hearing this, Meng Ji said, "Are you trying to get rid of me?"
Wu Er nodded.
“You know I won’t leave,” Meng Ji said again.
Wu Er shook his head and said, "Actually, I don't know what grudge we have?"
Meng Ji replied, "It's like a blood feud against my father!"
"bother."
Although he wanted to explain something, Wu Er didn't want to bring up the past, so he didn't explain much.
