Chapter 279 Elder Shu must be crazy to say this

The meeting hall on the top of Luoshan Sect.

When Chen Qian entered the hall, the leader of Luoshan Sect and four other elders had all arrived.

There are a total of six elders in Luoshan Sect, but only two of them are in the middle Nascent Soul stage.

Chen Qian's eyes immediately fell on the old man sitting in the first seat on the left, Sun Chaoyang, the sect's only elder in the middle stage of the Nascent Soul stage.

"Greetings, Sect Master." Chen Qian immediately saluted to the middle-aged man sitting at the main seat.

"Elder Chen, there is no need to be polite."

Yue Chongbin waved his hand, and another elder beside him asked, "Elder Chen, what's going on? Why did Chu Ning from Danshan Sect come to our sect?"

The people present only got a general idea from Ji Youli.

"Chu Ning and Elder Shu had a special relationship when they were alive. Chu Ning called Elder Shu "Senior Brother."

Senior brother?

As soon as this title came out, the expressions of the people present changed slightly.

They are not brothers from the same sect, but they address each other as senior brothers. Those present have all been practicing for nearly a thousand years, and they know that in the world of cultivators, only those who respect each other extremely will call each other senior brothers.

"Also, when Chu Ning and I arrived at Elder Shu's courtyard, the sect disciple Wang Jiren was forcing Elder Shu's disciples to hold a simple funeral."

After Chen Qian finished speaking, Yue Chongbin looked at Sun Chaoyang, and the other elders also looked over at this moment.

Everyone present knew why Wang Jiren forced Elder Shu's disciples to hold a simple funeral.

Sun Chaoyang also frowned. If it was another mid-Nascent Soul cultivator who came, he would not take it too seriously, but Chu Ning's identity was different.

He is a disciple of Danshan Sect and was the first in the last rookie competition.

The former determines one's identity, while the latter determines one's status in Danshan Sect.

"Elder Chen, what do you think of Chu Ning's attitude?"

Seeing that Sun Chaoyang didn't speak, Yue Chongbin turned and asked Chen Qian.

"Chu Ning must be angry, but I don't think Chu Ning wants to make things too awkward. After all, Elder Shu's funeral hasn't been held yet."

As soon as Chen Qian said this, everyone present immediately understood what he meant.

Elder Shu's funeral has not yet begun, which means the situation can still be salvaged.

Although Chu Ning is a disciple of Danshan Sect, he probably doesn't want to create enmity with Luoshan Sect because of this. The most important thing is that Chu Ning is not completely right now.

This kind of thing can be cleared by simply pushing the blame onto the disciples and deacons.

"Elder Sun, what do you think we should do?"

Yue Chongbin looked at Sun Chaoyang, who said coldly, "It's time for our sect to be reorganized. Some disciples have no respect for their superiors and don't even understand the sect's rules."

This is like killing the donkey after it has done its job.

When Chen Qian heard Sun Chaoyang's answer, he knew that Wang Jiren and the other deacons who had tried to please Sun Chaoyang or who had been instructed to embarrass Elder Shu's disciples would all be punished this time.

Chu Ning went through this process personally, so their Luoshan Sect must give Chu Ning an explanation.

"Since Chu Ning is here, we can't pretend we don't know. You will all go with me to Elder Shu. As for rectifying the sect's atmosphere, Elder Huang will be responsible for it."

Yue Chongbin gave orders to Chen Qian and another elder. Sun Chaoyang opened his mouth slightly, wanting to say something, but in the end he did not speak.

Luoshan Sect is just an insignificant small sect in the entire Danyu, but it is a behemoth for the lower-level cultivators.

The elders of the entire Luoshan Sect also have their own divisions of power. The Sect Master now asks Elder Huang to rectify the atmosphere, which means that the people in his faction will have to give up a lot of interests this time.

There was some gloom in Sun Chaoyang's eyes. He was the one who instigated the matter of Shu Wenruan, but he couldn't understand why Shu Wenruan had to hide it for so many years since he had such a close friend?

If he had said it directly back then, the previous sect master would have certainly given him more resources for training, and he might even have broken through to the late Nascent Soul stage by now, instead of dying in the middle Nascent Soul stage like he is now.

In the inner room.

Chu Ning sensed the uneasiness of Qi Liwei and his companions, and also sensed the presence of Yue Chongbin and his companions coming from the top of the mountain.

The leader and elders of Luoshan Sect have arrived.

"Senior Chu."

Seeing Chu Ning coming out of the inner room, Qi Liwei spoke quickly, but unfortunately Chu Ning didn't even look at him, and looked directly at the door.

"Fellow Daoist Chu has come a long way, and I hope I can forgive me for not being able to greet you in person."

Yue Chongbin spoke to Chu Ning as soon as he entered the room, and the appearance of him and several elders made Qi Liwei and others breathe faster.

Even though they are elder disciples, it is difficult for them to see the sect master on weekdays.

In the sect, among disciples like them, only a few with the highest talents can see the sect master, and they can only see the sect master from afar during some grand ceremonies of the sect.

Originally, they had already overestimated Senior Chu, but now seeing the sect master and several elders coming together, they realized that they still underestimated Senior Chu's importance.

They had never seen the sect master and elders come in person. Of course, this was because they had not practiced for a long time. This situation had happened to Luoshan Sect before. Once, when a powerful god-transforming cultivator came, not only the sect master and elders but almost the entire sect went to the mountain gate to welcome him.

Yue Chongbin greeted him, then glanced at the inner room, his eyes dimmed: "Elder Shu is the elder of my Luoshan Sect. He has been deeply loved by the disciples over the years. This time Elder Shu passed away, and my Luoshan Sect will organize Elder Shu's funeral according to the high rules. Fellow Daoist Chu is a good friend of Elder Shu, and I hope Fellow Daoist Chu can protect him a little."

The meaning of protecting one or two people is to let Chu Ning attend Shu Wenruan's funeral throughout the whole process.

"I would like to thank Sect Master Yue on behalf of Senior Brother Shu." Chu Ning's expression remained calm. The reaction of Luoshan Sect was within his expectations.

"Besides me, who will be attending Senior Brother Shu's funeral, there are several other fellow Taoists who are also on their way."

On the way to Luoshan Sect, Chu Ning sent messages to those people who were in the same group as him in Xinhuo Hall.

After the newcomer competition was over, he returned to Luoshan Sect and received letters of congratulations from these people. In addition to congratulating them, these people also told him about the sects they currently belonged to.

Those who stay in Xinhuo Palace are looked down upon by the super sects, but for the second-tier sects in Danyu, or even worse sects like Luoshan Sect, they are very popular.

Chu Ning knew very well that even if these people no longer had the same feelings towards Senior Brother Shu for his guidance as he did in the past, they would still come forward for his sake.

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

That's enough.

Senior Brother Shu has been a good man all his life. If those who were helped by him in the past came to see him off, I think Senior Brother Shu would be pleased if he knew about this.

As for whether these people are sincere or not, Chu Ning believes in judging by actions rather than their intentions.

Even though these people came here for their sake, when they came here, they would naturally think of the kindness that Senior Brother Shu had shown them, and they would feel somewhat grateful.

This is human nature.

Senior Brother Shu’s kindness may not be enough for them to come here, but as long as they come, they will definitely remember the kindness of his guidance.

When Yue Chongbin and others heard that someone else was coming, they were shocked. Does Shu Wenruan have such a wide network of contacts?

If there is another disciple from a super sect, even if his status is not as noble as Chu Ning, he will still be extraordinary.

Although they are all Nascent Soul cultivators, Yue Chongbin and others know that they are different from the Nascent Soul cultivators of those super sects.

At most they can reach the late Nascent Soul stage in their lifetime, and only a lucky few can break through to the God Transformation stage. For the disciples of super sects, the Nascent Soul stage is just the starting point, and as long as the sect is willing to spend resources to cultivate them, the chances of breaking through to the God Transformation stage are very high.

To take a step back, even if you cannot break through to the God Transformation stage, you can still cultivate to the late Nascent Soul stage.

Other people’s lowest pursuit is their own goal. They are completely in different circles, so it is naturally difficult for them to interact with each other.

"It's a good thing that you have fellow Taoists here. Elder Shu is kind to others, so he is naturally very popular."

Yue Chongbin took over the conversation, while Chu Ning glanced at Chen Qian and several elders, and finally his eyes fell on Sun Chaoyang.

He had never seen Sun Chaoyang, but his spiritual awareness was a little stronger than that of the late Nascent Soul. Among these elders, this one's aura fluctuation was the greatest, especially when he said that many fellow Taoists would come.

Although this person hid very well, he could not escape his spiritual perception. Based on this, Chu Ning judged that this person was Elder Sun.

"May I ask who is Elder Sun?"

Chu Ning stared at Sun Chaoyang, but what he said made the atmosphere in the yard suddenly become awkward.

Yue Chongbin and the others didn't expect that Chu Ning would suddenly ask this at this time.

According to Chen Qian's judgment, Chu Ning did not want to make a big deal about Elder Shu's matter, so he would not point out Elder Sun at this time. Everyone dealt with it tacitly.

"I just don't know what Chu Dao wants."

Sun Chaoyang had a gloomy face, and when Chu Ning looked at him, he was also feeling angry.

So what if I am a disciple of Danshan Sect? So what if I am in the newcomer competition?

Do you really think that people from small sects like us will be bullied by disciples from super sects like you? As soon as he entered the courtyard, Chu Ning was arrogant and said that he didn't take the people from Luoshan Sect seriously at all.

Of course, this is Sun Chaoyang's subjective opinion.

Chu Ning also mentioned that Shu Wenruan had many good friends who came to pay their respects. Wasn't he just trying to show them his connections?

"Nothing. When Senior Brother Shu wrote to me before he passed away, he mentioned that Elder Sun of your sect was very powerful. Although he was in the middle stage of the Nascent Soul, his strength was comparable to that of the late stage of the Nascent Soul. I want to see it for myself."

Chu Ning narrowed his eyes slightly, but what he said made Yue Chongbin and others change their expressions.

The thing that Elder Shu wrote to Elder Sun to inform him was false, and Chu Ning was looking for an excuse to seek justice for Elder Shu.

In front of you, a genius who ranked first in the rookie competition, Elder Shu must have been stupid to mention Elder Sun.

Chu Ning really did not hide his thoughts at all, and made excuses without thinking.
