Chapter 132 The Flexible Elder
"Li Wen, humph, the Third Elder and I have a small matter today that I need your help with.
Don't be so tactless. If you dare to find any excuse to refuse, don't blame us for being rude. Just accept it without hesitation."
The Great Elder snorted heavily from his nose, and the domineering look on his face was almost written all over.
The third elder stood aside, also with his arms folded across his chest, a look of rightness written all over his face, as if it was only natural for Li Wen to help them.
Li Wen was surprised by the arrogant attitude of these two people.
I couldn't help but think to myself: What? Wasn't the lesson I learned before enough?
How dare you still act so arrogantly in front of me?
Li Wen raised a mocking arc at the corner of his mouth. Without saying anything, he just snorted coldly, turned around and strode away.
Turning around, Li Wen took out his magical weapon, contacted Chen Wan'er, and briefly explained the situation here.
"Hey, Li Wen, if I hadn't sent you out, how could you have shown up in front of the Sect Master so quickly?
Now it's just such a small matter, and you won't help?"
When the third elder saw Li Wen leave so abruptly, he became anxious and quickly sent a message.
He tried to use this so-called "favor" to morally blackmail Li Wen, and his tone was a bit angry.
But just as the Third Elder sent out his message, before Li Wen could respond, a new round of poisoning came rushing in.
This time, the poison was much stronger than before. The two men had no time to use their internal energy to resist and fell straight to the ground in an instant.
He was spitting out mouthfuls of blood, his limbs were twitching violently and uncontrollably, and his whole body was as stiff as two stones.
Someone hurriedly reported this to Li Wen. Li Wen stood still, smiled coldly, and waved his hand to signal his men:
"Go, carry them to my yard first. I'll go over and take a look later, and by the way, have a good chat with the Third Elder about his 'favor'."
When Li Wen leisurely returned to his yard, the first elder and the third elder still looked miserable.
He couldn't speak and couldn't move his body.
"Hey, isn't this the First Elder and the Third Elder?
He was so arrogant and aggressive just now, what happened?
Did you offend someone you shouldn't have? Or did you accidentally get in their way?
As soon as Li Wen entered the yard, he started talking in a loud voice, his deliberately drawn-out tone full of teasing and sarcasm.
When the First Elder and the Third Elder heard this, they understood everything and knew that they had completely provoked Li Wen.
But what does "blocking the way" mean? Does Li Wen want to take over the Blood Demon Sect?
But he is only at the ninth level of the Golden Core stage now, and is still a long way from the Nascent Soul stage!
After finally recovering from the shock, the Great Elder opened his mouth with great effort and looked towards Li Wen, his eyes full of vigilance:
"You...what do you want? Do you want to replace the Sect Master?"
Li Wen smiled coldly and spoke slowly:
"Great Elder, please don't slander me! It's obvious that the Sect Master intends to pass the position to me, how can you say that I want to replace him?"
"You're talking nonsense! When did the Sect Master say this? How come I don't know anything about it?"
The Great Elder's eyes widened, his face full of disbelief, and his voice became sharp due to excitement.
"Why are you in such a hurry? The Sect Master will announce this matter to everyone in the Blood Demon Sect when the time comes."
Li Wen crossed his arms across his chest, looking confident.
When the first and third elders heard this, their faces flushed with excitement.
"Impossible! Why would the Sect Master pass the position to you? If he wants to pass it on, it should be passed on to us elders. You are just an ordinary disciple!"
The third elder also gathered his strength and shouted loudly.
"Third Elder, I don't believe this either, but you two are both poisoned now. I'm afraid you won't survive this night, right?
What, are you two so obsessed with the position of Sect Leader that you don't even want your lives?"
The smile on Li Wen's face became more and more sarcastic, and his eyes showed a shrewdness that seemed to see through everything.
When the two heard this, they understood instantly.
Today's incident was clearly a trap, so Chen Wan'er must have been someone Li Wen had hired.
This is a threat, a naked threat!
"Li Wen, no, Sect Master Li, as long as you can spare my life, I will agree to anything you ask."
The Great Elder couldn't bear it any longer and didn't care about his face anymore, he immediately begged humbly.
Seeing the spineless look of the Great Elder, the Third Elder curled his lips in disdain:
"Great Elder, where is your backbone? How can you beg him? You are the Great Elder!"
"So what if you're the Great Elder? Without your life, you're nothing. You're so noble, so just bear with it!"
The Great Elder also became anxious and retorted.
Seeing the Great Elder's submissive attitude, Li Wen felt extremely satisfied.
"Great Elder, you are more aware of the current situation.
It's not impossible for me to spare your life, but I have to wait until I become the sect leader.
But don't worry, taking this pill will temporarily save your life."
As he spoke, Li Wen took out a pill from his arms and threw it lightly.
Upon seeing this, the Great Elder grabbed the pill as if he had found a life-saving straw and hurriedly fed it into his mouth.
The Great Elder had just taken the pill when the Third Elder could be seen with the naked eye starting a new round of poison attacks and rolling on the ground in pain, while the Great Elder was safe and sound.
This scene scared the Great Elder to death, but fortunately he turned back in time.
"Master Li, from now on I will be at your service, and I will do whatever you ask of me. I will do whatever it takes."
The Great Elder hastened to express his loyalty, his voice still trembling with the feeling of having survived a disaster.
At this time, Li Wen looked down at the third elder who was rolling on the ground in pain, but a look of gratitude appeared on his face.
He said slowly, "Third Elder, to be honest, I really have to thank you very much.
You see, if you hadn't been so 'concerned' with me back then, how would I have had the opportunity to meet my wise and powerful master today?
I, Li Wen, will always remember this kindness in my heart.
To repay you, rest assured, I will make sure you die a worthy death, so that your efforts will be well worthwhile."
The third elder widened his eyes and looked at Li Wen in horror.
His throat made a gurgling sound, but due to the erosion of the poison, he couldn't utter a complete word and could only struggle in vain.
"Don't worry, Third Elder, just bear with it for a few more days."
Li Wen leaned down slightly, with a cold light flashing in his eyes.
He leaned close to the Third Elder's ear and whispered, "In these few days, I will definitely arrange a decent death for you.
Let your death be glorious, and your bravery will be remembered by the entire sect.
As for this poison, just bear it slowly and consider it a small price to pay for your previous actions."
After saying that, Li Wen stood up, brushed off the corner of his clothes, turned around and strode away, his back revealing undisguised pride.
After a while, several men came hurriedly and carried the third elder out like a dead dog.
"Master Li," the Great Elder, upon seeing this, hurriedly stepped forward, bent over, with a flattering smile on his face.
"Is there anything I can do for you these days?
Just give me your orders, and I will do my best to carry them out properly."
Li Wen glanced at him, smiling:
"Great Elder, I know in my heart that even though you are speaking nicely, I'm afraid you are still a little dissatisfied in your heart, right?"
The Great Elder seemed to have been poked in a sore spot. His body trembled slightly, but the smile on his face became even brighter. He waved his hand and said quickly:
"Master, what are you talking about? You must be joking.
Now you are the undisputed number one in our Blood Demon Sect. Who else is worthy of the position of Sect Leader except you?
I am convinced by you and I have no objections."
Li Wen raised the corner of his mouth slightly and waved his hand nonchalantly: "Alright, you can go down first."
After the Great Elder retreated timidly, Li Wen immediately put away the laziness on his face.
His eyes flashed, and he gave his subordinates a deep command:
"Send someone to keep a close eye on him. If he makes the slightest movement, report it to me immediately. No mistakes can be made. Do you understand?"
"Yes, Master!" The subordinates responded in unison and left.
