"I am Qi Yuan from Huoyun Sect, and I am honored to meet Wei Qinchuan!"
After a while, Xiaoqing came back.
She brought two monks, one old and one young.
The older one was an old man wearing a fiery red Taoist robe, with white hair and a youthful face, and sunken eyes. The younger one was a graceful, delicate girl with a pair of moist almond-shaped eyes.
"sit!"
Wei Han greeted casually!
He sat casually beside the tea table in the pavilion, drinking tea and enjoying piano music. He was neither enthusiastic nor deliberately making things difficult, and his way of dealing with people was just right.
"Master Wei is indeed a wonderful man. I thought I would be humiliated." The old Taoist named Qi Yuan sat down with a smile, not paying any attention to the gloomy gaze of Xu Qing beside him.
“There’s no need to humiliate you.” Wei Han sighed and said helplessly, “You should know the origins of the Changsheng Sect. It’s not easy for outsiders to take root in the Wanxing Sea. We had no choice but to choose Huoyun Island as our base. I’m sorry for you!”
"Humph, you still feel sorry for us?" The delicate girl said angrily.
"Hongyu, shut up!" Taoist Qi Yuan snorted coldly, frowned and scolded: "The law of the jungle is the law of nature in the world of immortal cultivation. We also snatched Huoyun Island from other sects back then."
The delicate girl was speechless when she heard this.
Wei Han smiled slightly when he saw this, and while motioning the old Taoist to drink tea, he asked, "Since you understand this truth, why do you still insist on being stubborn?"
"Alas, I am unwilling to accept this after all." Taoist Qi Yuan sighed bitterly, "Our sect has been developing on Huoyun Island for thousands of years, but now we are being driven away like a lost dog. How can the disciples in the sect swallow this breath? Moreover, without the income from the mountain gate, mines, and fairy city, how can we support hundreds of thousands of disciples? Are we really going to eat up all the resources?"
Just a few words!
Everyone present had different expressions.
The current situation of Huoyun Sect is probably not very good, otherwise Taoist Qi Yuan would not have risked coming to their door in person. Needless to say, everyone can guess that their current situation is very bad.
But so what?
The world of cultivating immortals is so cruel, the winner takes all!
"Senior Qi, I don't want to listen to this nonsense." Wei Han said casually: "What are you doing here today? Let's get straight to the point so as not to waste our time."
"Okay!" Taoist Qi Yuan gritted his teeth and said, "Our sect would like to ask Master Wei not to interfere in the dispute on Huoyun Island. Is that possible?"
"oh?"
Wei Han was a little amused.
Is Huoyun Sect filled with paste?
As a disciple from the Changsheng Sect, how could he ignore the affairs of his former master? Although most cultivators are profit-driven, didn't the Huoyun Sect underestimate him?
"I know this is quite presumptuous, but I have no choice." Taoist Qi Yuan laughed frankly, "Although our sect has a storehouse outside the island, the daily cultivation of hundreds of thousands of disciples consumes a huge amount of money. At the same time, we paid a huge price when we hired high-level independent cultivators to prepare for the counterattack on Huoyun Island last time."
"If we don't even try this time, then all our preparations will be wasted, and our thousand-year heritage will be completely consumed, and we will end up in a miserable situation."
"The future of the Huoyun Sect's hundreds of thousands of disciples depends entirely on us. The thousand-year inheritance may even be cut off. I, the old Taoist, really have no choice but to come here in person and try a few things."
After saying this, Taoist Qi Yuan once again took out a gift list.
This gift list contains a large number of rare treasures, some of which are even more precious than the previous one. There are many things on it that even Xu Qing, who is in the late Nascent Soul stage, would be moved.
Obviously this is the bargaining chip offered by the Huoyun Sect!
They were willing to give up their last treasure in exchange for Wei Han not interfering in the matter, so that they could have the opportunity to regain the foundation of Huoyun Island in a fair and open manner.
I have to say, this method is very clever!
Most cultivators in the world are selfish and will kill their fellow Taoists without mercy for a little benefit. If it were someone else, they would probably be bribed by this huge wealth and no longer care about the life and death of their former master.
But Wei Han just glanced at the gift list casually and smashed it to pieces without hesitation.
"This plan won't work!" Wei Han took a sip of tea and said in a deep voice: "Even if Huoyun Sect offers ten or a hundred times the reward, I will never agree to it."
"you?"
The delicate girl's eyes turned red with anger.
Taoist Qi Yuan seemed to have expected this. He felt as if all his energy had been drained from him. After he let out a long breath of waste air, his face was filled with despair.
"You are just taking advantage of others' power." The delicate girl became even more angry when she saw this: "If you hadn't joined the Purple Sky Holy Land, we, we..."
The girl became angrier and angrier as she spoke, and she almost burst into tears.
Taoist Qi Yuan was so frightened that his face suddenly changed. He shouted in a low voice: "Hongyu, shut up!"
"It doesn't matter. Taking advantage of others is also a skill." Wei Han waved his hand nonchalantly and sneered, "Compared to the real foundation, Changsheng Sect is naturally not comparable to your Huoyun Sect. Especially after the beast tide, its strength dropped sharply, forcing me to find another backer."
"And I don't feel any shame in joining the Purple Sky Holy Land. Everything the Holy Land has given me can be considered an investment. In the future, I will have to repay the Holy Land, just like I am repaying my former master!"
These words left everyone present speechless.
The delicate girl also opened her mouth, but ultimately could not say anything. Only Xu Qing's lips curled slightly to reveal a hint of admiration, and finally returned to his lowered and pleasing look.
If Wei Han accepted the treasure today and ignored his former master, he would really look down on this young master, and the entire Qingming Peak would no longer recognize such an ungrateful person.
But from now on, it seems that Wei Han is still a good person.
"Alas!" Taoist Qi Yuan smiled bitterly, and finally stood up and bowed, saying: "In this case, I will not bother you any more. When I go back, I will dismiss my disciples and reduce the number of people, and then find an island to start from scratch."
"Master?" the delicate girl exclaimed.
"Let's go!"
Taoist Qi Yuan was ready to leave dejectedly.
Wei Han raised his eyebrows and said, "We are sorry for what happened to the mountain gate. If you are willing to reconcile, I can give you some compensation on behalf of Changsheng Sect."
"No need!" Taoist Qi Yuan smiled bitterly: "It's just a matter of success or failure. No one is wronging anyone. The Huoyun Sect will be disbanded soon!"
"There's no need to disband. If hundreds of thousands of disciples become independent practitioners, it will be very troublesome." Wei Han kindly reminded: "In fact, besides disbanding, there are three other ways to solve today's difficulties."
"Three methods?"
"really?"
Taoist Qi Yuan and the delicate girl couldn't help but be surprised.
Obviously, he didn't expect that the other party had three solutions to the troubles that had troubled his sect for many days.
