I’m Starting With A Holy Land Taoist, And You Want Me To Go The Waste Route? Chapter 129

“My fellow monks, please listen to what I have to say!”

During the banquet, Shao Xuanji, the head of Linglong Holy Land, suddenly stood up from the throne and spoke loudly.

As soon as the words came out, the music of the stringed instruments in the celebration stopped abruptly, and the originally noisy environment was instantly quiet.

Everyone looked at Shao Xuanji, with doubts and curiosity in their expressions.

Shao Xuanji looked around solemnly and said slowly:

“We are honored to have you all come from afar this time. We are honored by our humble place, but the conditions are limited. If there is any inadequacy in the hospitality, please forgive us.”

The voice was soft with a hint of pressure, not loud and fierce, but it could spread thousands of miles and resounded clearly in the ears of everyone present.

“Master Shao, you are welcome.”

“Very well, you are really too modest. How could we be so respected?”

“Master Qiao has attained the Mahayana stage and is expected to achieve immortality. This is a rare joyous event that only happens once in a thousand years. It is a great honor for us to be able to attend this grand event!”

“It is truly a great honor to see the elegance of your sect this time…”

…..

Everyone responded politely and saluted from afar.

Shao Xuanji nodded, then changed the subject and said in a solemn tone:

“Today, I heard a rumor about the Linglong Saint. The content is absurd and unbearable to hear.”

“Although I don’t know which individuals with ulterior motives are fanning the flames and attempting to slander and defame, rumors are rumors after all, and they can’t stand the slightest scrutiny.”

“However, the rumor involves the reputation of the Linglong Holy Land after all, so on behalf of the Linglong Holy Land, I solemnly clarify that all the things said in the rumor are false and fabricated.”

As she spoke, a gleam flashed in her beautiful eyes, and she said coldly:

“I have said this much. If anyone dares to continue spreading rumors and disturbing people’s hearts, my Linglong Holy Land will pursue them to the end!”

As the voice fell, the guests present were suddenly startled and nodded in agreement.

Although it feels good to talk about gossip, it is not worth it to get involved just for the sake of gossip.

Qi Yuan at the table also breathed a sigh of relief, and was very satisfied with Shao Xuanji’s quick and decisive approach.

Just then, Shao Xuanji suddenly looked at him and announced expressionlessly:

“From today on, Taixuan Taoist Qi Yuan is listed as the Supreme Guest of this Holy Land, with a status similar to that of the Supreme Elder. All disciples of Linglong Holy Land must not neglect him, and those who violate the order will be severely punished according to the rules of the sect!”

The Supreme Guest?

The treatment of the Supreme Elder?

As soon as these words came out, it was like throwing a huge rock on the calm water, which immediately caused an uproar.

Not only the guests present, but also many high-level officials of Linglong Holy Land showed extremely surprised expressions, obviously they did not expect Shao Xuanji to give such a respected status to Taixuan Daozi, and announced it in public.

On the cloud platform, Daozis from other holy lands all looked at Qi Yuan, their eyes full of shock.

The next moment, Qi Yuan, who had become the focus of the whole audience, stood up calmly, bowed slightly to Shao Xuanji, and said with a smile:

“The elders have given me a gift, and I dare not refuse it. Since Master Shao is so kind, I will be disrespectful to refuse it!”

Shao Xuanji took a deep breath and squeezed out a sentence:

“Qi…Guest official, there is no need to be polite.”

After that, she flicked her skirt sleeves and sat directly on the throne with her eyes closed.

If it wasn’t for Grandmaster Fei Huang’s instructions, she would never have publicized this matter.

…….

When everyone was digesting this shocking incident, Zhuang Qingyun couldn’t wait to pull Tu Ruoxu’s sleeve and anxiously transmitted his voice:

“Brother Tu, you are right. Linglong Holy Land did quickly refute the rumor in public.”

“But this doesn’t seem to be knocking Taixuan Daozi, but more like praising him. Why is that?”

Tu Ruoxu raised his eyebrows, a playful smile appeared at the corners of his mouth, and replied in a leisurely tone:

“Brother Zhuang, you can’t just look at the surface of things. The more this is the case, the more it proves that my previous guess is correct!”

Zhuang Qingyun was a little confused and asked quickly, “What do you mean?”/p>Tu Ruoxu smiled faintly and replied slowly:

“At present, it seems that Taixuan Daozi must have been beaten, and was forced to reach some kind of agreement with Linglong Holy Land, and suffered a great loss in the agreement.”

“Therefore, in order to appease Taixuan Holy Land, Linglong Holy Land threw out the empty title of Supreme Guest Official.”

“Master Shao of Linglong Holy Land must understand the principle of combining kindness and severity, and combining leniency and severity. Since he has got what he wanted, it is nothing to give Taixuan Daozi an empty title.”

“The so-called Supreme Guest Official sounds very stylish and majestic, In fact, it is just an empty shell. How much treatment and power it can get is still decided by Linglong Holy Land.”

“In the end, Linglong Holy Land gets the inside, and Taixuan Holy Land gets the face, and neither side will have to tear each other apart. This is the beauty of this move!”

After hearing these words, Zhuang Qingyun suddenly realized, and his face immediately showed admiration:

“Senior Brother Tu is really smart. He made me suddenly enlightened with just a few words. I didn’t expect that Taixuan Taoist is also a pitiful person!”

Speaking of this, the hostility in his eyes when he looked at Qi Yuan had already disappeared, and was replaced by a trace of pity…

Zhuang Qingyun suddenly looked gloomy as he thought of something, and asked in a voice transmission:

“You mean, that rumor was also spread by Linglong Holy Land itself?”

After pondering for a moment, Tu Ruoxu shook his head and analyzed confidently:

“No, Linglong Holy Land is unlikely to make up a rumor about its own saint. It is likely that they are just taking advantage of the situation. The real person who spread the rumor is someone else.”

Hearing this, Zhuang Qingyun was stunned at first, and then his expression became ferocious:

“Who do you think that person is? How dare he slander the reputation of Fairy Xiao? I will never forgive him!”

Hearing this , Tu Ruoxu chuckled with a reserved expression, his eyes deep: “Anyone who spreads rumors will have a specific purpose.” “Think about it carefully. If this explosive news is spread, whoever is the biggest beneficiary is the real mastermind!” Zhuang Qingyun was still confused, and hesitantly transmitted his voice: “You mean…” Tu Ruoxu glanced at him angrily: “The real mastermind is actually… Ji Tianpeng!” This sentence was said decisively and loudly. “Ah?” Zhuang Qingyun stared with a confused look, as if he didn’t understand.

“Zi Yang Daozi Ji Tianpeng challenged Tai Xuan Daozi in public yesterday, but was suppressed in one move. He was so embarrassed.”

“There were a lot of people watching at the time. If the news gets out, wouldn’t Zi Yang Holy Land lose face even more?”

Speaking of this, Tu Ruoxu paused, looking like he had a plan in hand:

“If you want to suppress the popularity of a piece of news, the best way is to create a more explosive piece of news to divert everyone’s attention.”

“Look, everyone is discussing the scandal between Tai Xuan Daozi and Ling Long Saint Girl now. Who would care about Ji Tianpeng’s loss?”

“Ji Tianpeng and Qi Yuan have always had a bad relationship. By making up a rumor about Qi Yuan, not only can we get rid of the negative impact of defeat, but we can also involve our opponents. It’s killing two birds with one stone!”

“So that’s it!”

Zhuang Qingyun understood instantly, and then said with gratitude, “I didn’t expect it was Ji Tianpeng who did it. If it weren’t for Senior Brother Tu’s meticulous mind and wisdom, this guy would have fooled me.”

“Ji, wait, I, Zhuang Qingyun, will never let you go!”

As he said that, he glared at Ji Tianpeng who was drinking in silence.

Finding that Zhuang Qingyun was looking at him with a bad expression, Ji Tianpeng felt a little puzzled.

Have I ever provoked him?

Is this kid sick?

……

After the ceremony, Qi Yuan did not join the disciples of Taixuan Holy Land, but went straight to the solemn and majestic main hall of Linglong Holy Land.

At this time, the main hall was empty, except for the Linglong Holy Land’s head Shao Xuanji who sat at the top.

The man was wearing a golden skirt, with his hair tied up high, phoenix eyes and eyebrows, and his whole body was full of

“Junior greets Master Shao.”

After entering the main hall, Qi Yuan stepped forward calmly and saluted without breaking the rules.

Shao Xuanji looked down at Qi Yuan standing at the bottom of the jade steps, with a complex and indistinguishable look in her eyes.

After a moment of silence, she collected her thoughts and said coldly:

“Qi Yuan, I admit that I underestimated you before, but if you think that you can do whatever you want in Linglong Holy Land with the indulgence of Master Feihuang, then you are wrong!”

Qi Yuan shook his head gently and said calmly:

“Junior dare not, but just because Master Feihuang appreciates me, it is too arbitrary to conclude that I will do something that will damage Linglong Holy Land?” /p>Shao Xuanji frowned slightly, stared at Qi Yuan deeply, and sighed after a long while, slowing down his tone and saying:

“In this case, I won’t beat around the bush. This storage bracelet contains all the resources that are enough for you to cultivate to the Hedao realm.”

“After accepting it, you must make a vow to your inner demon that you will never step into Linglong Holy Land in your lifetime, and you are not allowed to get close to my disciple again!”

Qi Yuan looked up and saw an exquisite storage bracelet floating quietly in front of him.

“It seems… you haven’t figured out the situation yet.”

Qi Yuan smiled slightly and said slowly, “The one who is qualified to propose conditions now is me!”

As he said that, he looked directly at the beautiful head of the sect in front of him:

“Head Shao, you don’t want Linglong Holy Land to have any problems, do you?”
