C86 (2/2)

”Zhang Ao, Brother Cang is also the young master of a transcendent power, why is it that he doesn't have the qualifications to be here?” Peng Jie frowned slightly. There was a trace of dissatisfaction on his angular face. With regards to his arrogant attitude, he did not like it at all. If it were not for the fact that they had something to discuss, the two of them would not have been able to get along.

”Heh, just a mere young master of the Vastheaven Realm with a cultivation of the third stage, what a joke.” Zhang Ao glanced at Cang Yun, his face full of disdain.

There were even a few people looking at Cang Yun with a gloating smile. The youngsters loved to compete with each other for courage, so stepping on Cang Yun, the genius that was the focus of attention today, was something that made them feel a sense of accomplishment.

”Zhang Ao, I hope you can restrain yourself. We came here to discuss cooperation, so we won't fight.” No matter what, he was the one who had invited Cang Yun over. Zhang Ao was not giving any face at all, making him feel embarrassed, but just as he had said, this time he was here to negotiate cooperation, so no matter how unhappy he was, it was not appropriate for him to act out directly.

”Young Master Peng Jie, I feel that what Young Master Zhang Ao said is correct. With the strength of the team from the Vastheaven Realm, they indeed don't have the qualifications to join us.”

However, before Zhang Ao could say anything, another voice sounded from the crowd.

”Xu Guang, are you going to continue messing around?” Peng Jie looked at the speaker with a helpless expression. Two people had already stood up against him, while the others were gloating. This let him know that he no longer had much right to speak on this matter.

”I'm just speaking the truth.” Xu Guang spread out his hands in a businesslike manner and said, ”Just the third layer of the secret scripture is able to participate in the decision-making. If others were to know about this, it would be hard to convince the public, right?”

As Xu Guang's voice fell, Luoqing also sneered and said, ”I also think that the Vastheaven Realm is not qualified to participate in the discussions.”

”Sigh.” Seeing that Luoqing had also stepped forward, Peng Jie sighed and no longer spoke. He shot an apologetic look towards Cang Yun. After all, the latter had been invited by him. Now that he had been ridiculed, he felt extremely guilty.

”Young Master Cang, go back from where you came from. If there is an order later, we will inform you and your subordinates.” Seeing that Peng Jie had admitted defeat, Luoqing looked at Cang Yun with a smile that was not a smile, and said in a strange tone.

From Rosella's point of view, this act of slapping the face was even more straightforward than striking out.

”Hmph, a small character needs to have the consciousness of a small character.” Zhang Ao also sneered, revealing an arrogant attitude.

Cang Yun had maintained his silence from the beginning till the end. His calm face was expressionless, and even in the face of Luo Qing and Zhang Ao's mocking, he remained unmoved.

Only when everyone had finished talking did he blandly ask, ”Are you all done?”

”You can leave now that you've finished.” Xu Guang narrowed his eyes. He didn't know why, but the calm expression on Cang Yun's face made him feel a sense of unease. However, just as this feeling arose, he laughed in his heart. Right now, no one was speaking up for Cang Yun, he did not believe that the latter had the ability to turn the situation around.

”No rush. You're done. I haven't said anything yet.” The corner of Cang Yun's mouth curled up slightly, and he looked at Xu Guang, ”You said that my Vastheaven Realm is not qualified, so you … What is it? ”

Hm?

Everyone was stunned, they were stunned by Cang Yun's seemingly ordinary tone, but in reality, it was extremely insolent. Earlier, Xu Guang and his group had been against him, but Cang Yun's words were a clear smack in the face.

”What did you say!” Xu Guang angrily roared, his face contorted.

”I say, who do you think you are? My Vastheaven Realm is not qualified, and you think you are qualified enough?” Cang Yun calmly repeated, not giving the slightest bit of face.

As the sound of his voice faded, the crowd burst into an uproar.

”You're crazy!”

”Heh, he didn't seem to be so arrogant two years ago, right?”

”Xu Guang is so angry that his nose is crooked. Let's see how he deals with this.”

The crowd was in a flurry of discussion, but most of them were gloating. Just like how they had treated Cang Yun, these people did not have the spirit of helping others.

Xu Guang's eyes were bloodshot and his killing intent was extremely strong. He wanted to kill Cang Yun, but he knew that this was not the time to act and there was also the threat of a spirit beast horde nearby. If he were to act now, no one would agree.

Therefore, he forcefully suppressed his anger, ”You said I'm not qualified. In terms of cultivation, who can be stronger than me here? In terms of power, I've also gathered thirty unspecialized characters this time. Tell me, who am I not qualified to be?”

”Comparing cultivation base?”

Cang Yun smiled faintly, ”Tell me, if you really want to deal with the spirit beast horde below, how much use will you have with your cultivation alone? How many can you kill? If we really are competing in terms of individual cultivation, then I think that there is no need for everyone to gather here. ”

”As for the power that you mentioned, I want to laugh even more. Do you think those people who temporarily depend on you are your people? I can guarantee that if we kick you out now, none of those people will follow you, so don't put money on your face, you really aren't qualified. ”

You really aren't qualified. As soon as Cang Yun finished speaking, it was as if Xu Guang had been slapped in the face. The anger in his heart exploded in his chest.

”You … ”You're courting death!”

Xu Guang roared, and after losing his mind, his palm directly smashed down towards Cang Yun's head.

”Stop!”

Bang bang!

However, the moment Xu Guang made his move, two figures instantly stopped him. As they collided, both parties were forced back a few steps.

Fighting one against two, he was still not at a disadvantage. From this, it could be seen how strong Xu Guang was.

”Xu Guang, you dare to make a move here? Have you gone mad? If you alarm the spirit beast horde, will you be able to take responsibility?” One of the two people who had blocked Xu Guang earlier was him.

”Hmph.” Xu Guang snorted coldly and did not reply, but he had no intention of continuing.

Peng Jie heaved a sigh of relief, and said in a deep voice, ”We are all here to discuss cooperation, why should we argue over such a small matter? And even if we work together, it's only temporary. There's really a grudge that can't be resolved, can't we? ”

”Peng Jie's words make sense. One more person makes an additional force. Let's put aside our grudges for the time being and discuss the matter of the spirit beast disturbance first.”

”That's right. The situation is still unclear, so it would be safer to join forces. Everyone should know about what happened in the Immortal Yang secret realm a hundred years ago, right?”

The rest of the people also began to speak up. Although they loved to watch the commotion, they did not want to see the big news. Furthermore, they did not forget the purpose of this gathering.

”Then, Brother Cang, how about you put your grudges aside for now?” Peng Jie looked at Cang Yun, then looked at Xu Guang and the rest and said.

”I have no objections.” Although he hated Cang Yun to the bones, he did not dare to offend the masses.

Rosella and Zhang Ao also remained silent, obviously tacitly agreeing to this matter.

”Of course I have no objections.” Cang Yun smiled.

”Alright, let's discuss the movements of the spirit beasts first.”
