Chapter 139 By the way, where are Jianyun and Xingwan?The anger of Master Taiwu, which had originally subsided, seemed to be aroused again at this moment.
The tent fell into silence again.
No one present is a fool.
The reason why they didn’t ask for help from Tiangang City is definitely not because “one less sect doesn’t matter”.
It is most likely because of face. It is the face that is playing tricks.
How could Master Taiwu not guess this?
Before, whenever Su Chen was mentioned.
The attitude of the fifth elder, Sun Xuerong, has always been derogatory and contemptuous.
And according to what they said before, Su Chen was driven away by her, Sun Xuerong.
Now Su Chen is becoming more and more respected in Tiangang City.
As expected, Sun Xuerong was deliberately avoiding Tiangang City.
If Tiangang City really arranged for Su Chen to come and was seen by the disciples of Yunyang Sect who knew Su Chen, then she, Sun Xuerong, would be really embarrassed.
Taoist Taiwu looked at Sun Xuerong, hesitated, and did not point these out.
It's considered giving her some face.
Just let Sun Xuerong go to Tiangang City in the near future to ask for help from Tiangang City.
The Yunyang Sect encountered these disasters on the front line today, and it is likely that more assistance will be needed.
Even Master Taiwu was considering when to announce the beast tide to the public.
"You all know what the frontline defense is facing.
If the problem cannot be solved and the disaster really happens, everyone should know what will happen.
I think you still have some impression of that time nineteen years ago.
If you can't remember clearly, there are relevant books in the sect, you can go back and read more."
Master Taiwu said in a cold voice.
He paused, as if he thought of something.
“All the sect’s direct disciples were deployed to the front line of defense.
In the Yunyang Sect, they have obtained more resources to cultivate more, and they should contribute more when the sect encounters difficulties.
There were also some disciples who were in charge of logistics, but they basically just lived out their time and were all transferred to the front line.
As for other disciples who were injured on the front line, if they can do something, let them be responsible for the logistics. They should be given the credit for their contribution, and not a single cent should be left out."
Hearing this, several elders nodded.
The difficulties that the Yunyang Sect is facing now make it impossible for them to continue to survive.
No matter who they are related to, we can tolerate it at ordinary times, but it is impossible to continue to indulge it now.
At this moment, the fifth elder Sun Xuerong seemed to feel guilty again.
She felt that Master Taiwu might want to ask something.
Sure enough, after a moment Master Taiwu spoke.
"By the way, where are Jianyun and Xingwan?
Previously, they were asked to stop their exploration mission and help guard the front line here.
Why didn’t I see them this time?
Two talented disciples who have reached the sixth rank should have no problem protecting themselves.
Where did they go?"
What you fear will come true. Sun Xuerong had just thought of this when she didn’t expect her own sect leader to come and ask her about it.
Sun Xuerong seemed hesitant and unwilling to speak.
Master Taiwu had already guessed something.
“Master, I saw that the front line of defense had stabilized a little bit, so I thought about rotating them.
I allowed them to go back first."
Upon hearing this reply, Master Taiwu's expression could even be described as indifferent.
“How long have they been at the front line? A month?
Even if there is a rotation, will it be their turn?"
After saying this, Master Taiwu became so angry that he slapped the ground, leaving a palm print.
"The core disciple of Yunyang Sect, the genius disciple, is this it?
Fifth Elder, this is the good disciple you brought up?
Knowing that the sect was in trouble, he left first, leaving the others to guard here.
Ask yourself, which disciple consumes more resources than the two of them?
Is this how you repay the sect?
What would the other disciples think if they saw this?
They go to endure the hardships, while the two Tianjiao disciples continue to enjoy the peace and prosperity of the world?"
Master Taiwu was really angry.
In order to boost the morale of the disciples on the front line, he, the sect leader, came in person.
As a result, their two disciples escaped first.
"Master, don't worry. Jianyun and Xingwan are relatively low-key, and no other disciples have noticed them."
Sun Xuerong's explanation seemed to make things worse, and Master Taiwu became angrier the more he listened.
"Good thing no other disciples noticed, you guys feel at ease.
This really treats other disciples as fools. Fu Jianyun and Liu Xingwan, they are the core disciples of the sect.
In the Great Zhou, they were known as the pride of the Yunyang Sect.
When did they fail to attract enough attention every time they appeared?
It has been quite some time since they last met. Would the other disciples not know that they have left?
Why are there so many disciples on the front line who are afraid of fighting? Now it seems that the root cause has been found.
If the disciples who have received the most resources from the sect don't try their best, will the other disciples try their best?"
Master Taiwu glanced at the others.
When the several hall masters heard what Master Taiwu said, they all seemed to agree.
Inside the tent, Sun Xuerong wanted to speak well of her two disciples.
But now, how can I exonerate them both?
However, Master Taiwu has always been very partial to Fu Jianyun and Liu Xingwan.
After the anger in his heart subsided, his tone finally became much calmer.
“The disciple who was driven away was the one named Su Chen.
Before, you said that one of the reasons why Fifth Elder accused him of stealing credit was that his contribution in the demon-slaying operation surpassed Xing Wan's.
Now that the sect is in trouble and Jianyun and Xingwan are not here, this matter will be brought up by the disciples.
We, the elders who know Xingwan well, naturally believe her.
It can be confirmed that Su Chen must be greedy for merit, which is why he did this.
But what will the other disciples of the sect say about Xing Wan after seeing her attitude this time?
By then, she will be unable to defend herself and will have a stain that is difficult to wash away."
Sun Xuerong, who was standing by, also nodded when she heard this.
Master Taiwu did not say those harsh words again.
"Fifth Elder, please find some time to go to a few more sects and request support.
I must go to Tiangang City this time.
Also, Fifth Elder, you don’t have to be embarrassed.
The main reason why the Yunyang Sect is in such a predicament now is because of ourselves. It is our own problem.
Su Chen, whom you drove away, was just a young disciple. It is impossible for him to have such a huge impact on us.
Besides, is this Su Chen really as powerful as the rumors say?
I have my doubts about this.
The front line of Tiangang City is now stable. They can fabricate an outstanding disciple at will to attract the attention of young people and help them recruit more outstanding disciples.
A disciple who was driven away by the Yunyang Sect made countless contributions in Tiangang City and was highly valued.
This gimmick is so attractive, and it highlights that Tiangang City’s ability to train disciples is better than our Yunyang Sect.
If it were in the past two years, we could easily create a talented disciple who was good at investigation.
With our front line being stable, who in the Great Zhou would not believe it?"
Master Taiwu's words seemed to make Sun Xuerong feel much better.
Before, she kept receiving news about Su Chen, and she felt uncomfortable.
“Please ask Tiangang City to come and help. When they come to help, we will naturally see what their abilities are.
As for Jianyun and Xingwan, call them back to the front line immediately.
Such a big thing happened on our Yunyang Sect's front line defense, and all the other direct disciples came, but these two did not.
In the future, the disciples will definitely have a lot of gossip.
It will also have an impact on the morale of the frontline.”
Taoist Taiwu was relatively considerate of her and did not say anything else, not even mentioning any punishment.
His favoritism towards Fu Jianyun and Liu Xingwan is also extremely obvious.
But neither of them could accept this kind of favoritism.
"Master, Jianyun and Xingwan are currently practicing in Chengyuan.
It will probably take several days to get back to the front line.
It will take time for us to pass the message on.”
After hearing Sun Xuerong's explanation, Master Taiwu sighed helplessly.
Without saying anything more, he stood up and left the tent.
In the past two years, the front line has been stable.
As the sect leader, he even treated Fu Jianyun and Liu Xingwan like his own disciples.
He took them out for experience and provided personal guidance.
All these show how much he likes these two disciples.
But this time it really wasn't appropriate.
