"Young Sect Master!" Elder Zhao also bowed and saluted while suppressing his pain!
"Elder Zhao, tell me, what happened?" Sun Shaoqian, the young master of the Shenyin Sect, asked coldly.
"Young Sect Master, it's like this. They are a newly established sect in my Ping'an Domain, named Lingxiao Sect. As you know, sects that are not registered cannot participate in the exchange meeting, so..." Elder Zhao looked embarrassed when he said this.
"So you blackmailed, extorted, and demanded favors from others? And in the end you got beaten like this?" Sun Shaoqian sneered.
At this moment, Elder Zhao was like a child who had made a mistake. He lowered his head and did not dare to look Sun Shaoqian in the eye. Although he was at the peak of the Golden Core stage and Sun Shaoqian was only at the late Golden Core stage, the other party was the Young Sect Master, the successor to the position of Sect Master designated by the current Sect Master, and the future Sect Master of the Shenyin Sect. Moreover, the Sect Master had intended to abdicate in recent years. Basically, all matters in the Shenyin Sect were managed by Sun Shaoqian, and he had the final say. As an elder who ranked last, he had no temper at all in front of Sun Shaoqian.
"You are such a disgrace. Go back to the Law Enforcement Hall and receive your punishment!" Sun Shaoqian snorted coldly, and then said to an elder who came with him: "Zhong Lin, from now on, you will take over the management of the sect's entrance!"
"Yes, sir!" Although Zhao Chang was extremely unwilling in his heart, he still did not dare to complain.
After dealing with Elder Zhao's matter, Sun Shaoqian's expression immediately changed. He said to Bai Ziling and Chen Hui in a friendly manner: "Haha, fellow Taoists, I'm sorry that you guys didn't manage our disciples well. You are a newly established sect, right? Come in with me, I'll take you to register."
"Then I'll trouble you, fellow Taoist." Chen Hui also responded with a smile. They didn't suffer any loss, and people who smile at them shouldn't be hit. He didn't give Sun Shaoqian a cold look.
Sun Shaoqian waved his hand and shouted to the people at the city gate: "Fellow Daoists, the people under my Shenyin Sect violated the rules and collected your spirit stones, which caused you inconvenience. This situation will not happen again in the future. Daoists who were asked to take spirit stones before, please tell each other and go to Elder Zhong. My Shenyin Sect will return it to you without any loss."
"Wow~" Everyone was surprised, puzzled, surprised, and disdainful. Of course, they were mostly happy! After all, 5 medium-grade spirit stones were not a small amount. It was enough for a disciple in the foundation-building stage of their sect to spend for more than a year.
"Young Master Sun is wise!"
"Young Master is mighty!"
"The Shenyin Sect deserves to be so powerful. With Young Master Sun here, I think the Shenyin Sect will sooner or later leave Pingan Territory and head for a wider world!"
"Humph~ This is the difference between Guiyuan Sect, Guluo Sect and Shenyin Sect. First, Guiyuan Sect took the lead in extorting our entrance fee, and then Guluo Sect followed suit. When it came to Shenyin Sect, Young Master Sun took action to stop this evil phenomenon. Next year, it's Guiyuan Sect's turn. I wonder if they will still be embarrassed to continue the extortion!"
"Shh~ Shut up, you want to die, you can just think about this kind of complaints in your mind, but you dare to say it out loud in public, aren't you afraid that the people from the two sects will cause trouble for you?"
…………
People around were talking about it.
"It seems that this Sun Shaoqian is not as unreasonable as Gao Zhentian said!" Zhang Jingxuan said suspiciously.
"It is indeed somewhat different from what the people from Qingmu Sect said." Zhao Dongsheng also frowned.
"Haha, you can judge a person by his appearance but not his heart. There are many hypocrites in the world. Either the people of Qingmu Sect are lying, or Sun Shaoqian is acting."
"Then I would rather believe Lao Gao. After all, we have been living with Lao Gao for more than half a year." Zhang Jingxuan shook his head.
The others also nodded and agreed with Zhang Jingxuan's statement. This Sun Shaoqian refused to accept the benefits. He accepted the benefits from the two gangs in the previous two years, but he did not. There must be something wrong when things are abnormal. He must have some conspiracy. Who knows, he might be thinking about how to deal with them!
In response to everyone's discussion, Sun Shaoqian still maintained his previous smile, making it impossible to figure out what he was thinking.
"You two, please follow me!" Sun Shaoqian said to Chen Hui and the others, and then took the lead to walk into the city.
Chen Hui and Bai Ziling looked at each other, then slowly followed, and Zhao Dongsheng and others followed closely behind, but they were stopped by the guards as soon as they entered the city gate.
"Hey~ Young Sect Leader, what do you mean?" Zhang Jingxuan said dissatisfiedly.
Sun Shaoqian turned around and said to Zhang Jingxuan and the others, "Excuse me, everyone. Your sect has not been registered yet. According to the regulations, you cannot enter. Can you wait until the registration is completed before entering the city?"
"No, what if you attack the first elder and the second elder?" Zhao Dongsheng said.
"Yes, Sun Shaoqian, we are from Qingshan Town, and we know your past very clearly. Don't think that we will believe you just because you play the good guy here today!" Zhang Jingxuan also shouted.
In response, Sun Shaoqian smiled bitterly and said, "Since you don't trust Sun, then this matter can't go on. How about you please go back?"
"It's okay, we'll go in with you!" said Chen Hui.
"Great Elder, how about I go in your place?" Chen Pipi asked.
Bai Ziling shook his head and said to Chen Pipi, "It's okay, little brother Pipi. I have my master with me. If they dare to mess around, I don't believe that old master will remain indifferent!"
Chen Pipi had no choice but to give up after hearing that. Then Chen Hui and Bai Ziling followed Sun Shaoqian's steps and left out of everyone's sight.
Pingyang City is much more lively than Qingshan Town. Although travel restrictions have been implemented in the city for a long time due to the sect exchange meeting, the streets are still crowded with people, including new monks and ordinary people in the city.
However, Chen Hui and Bai Ziling had both seen the world and did not show any surprise. Instead, they were relieved. In their opinion, Pingyang City was just so-so and far from what they had expected. It could not be compared with those cities outside of Ping'an Domain.
"This should be your first time to visit our Pingyang City, right? What's the matter? Has our Pingyang City disappointed you?" Sun Shaoqian asked when he saw the two men looking disgusted.
"Young Sect Master Sun, you are joking. We are just worried about the sect registration and have no intention of paying attention to the affairs in the city!" Chen Hui waved his hand.
"Yeah~ Your Pingyang City is pretty good, worthy of being the largest city in Ping'an Domain." Bai Ziling said perfunctorily.
Sun Shaoqian didn't care about this. Not long after they walked, they arrived at the gate of Shenyin Sect. Sun Shaoqian said to the two of them, "The registration of a new sect must be approved by the people in the Ping'an Domain Sect Council. Since the replacement of sects in our Ping'an Domain is rare, the members of the council are currently served by the great elders of our Shenyin Sect, Guiyuan Sect and Guluo Sect. It just so happens that the great elders of the other two sects are visiting our Shenyin Sect today. Just say hello to them when the time comes. I believe they will not make it difficult for you."
Then the two of them followed Sun Shaoqian into the Shenyin Sect, not knowing whether it was a dangerous place!
