Chapter 711

Tang Wan-er closely followed Long Chen while holding Meng Qi’s hand .

As a soul cultivator, Meng Qi’s const.i.tution was extremely weak . But Tang Wan-er was like a fish in water here, and she helped Meng Qi block most of the pressure .

Seeing Long Chen rush forward, the Dragonblood warriors also quickened their steps . With Long Chen as the tip, they were like a huge arrow shooting through the sea .

The thirty-sixth supermonastery’s disciples all jumped in shock upon seeing this speed . To them, this powerful current might blow them away as soon as they were the slightest bit careless .

But Long Chen and the others went against the tide as quick as lightning, as if they didn’t feel any pressure at all .

Even the distant experts were shocked . The fact that Long Chen could go against the tide like this wasn’t surprising . After all, they knew he was powerful enough to fight against Zhao Wuji .

But other than Meng Qi and Tang Wan-er, the others were just ordinary Xiantian disciples . How could they also be strong enough to resist such a powerful pressure?

This pressure was not just physical pressure . It was a comprehensive pressure composed of multiple facets . It included a pressure to their wills and also a kind of law . That was why they were so shocked .

“It seems monastery head Shui truly spared no effort to nurture her disciples . You’ve created such a powerful group,” said Zhou Tianyi .

He was irritated . His Zhou family had paid such a huge amount of resources to her . Now seeing the Dragonblood warriors’ display, he immediately connected it to that compensation he had paid .

Shui Wuhen smiled indifferently . “It’s all thanks to family head Zhou . If it weren’t for your selfless support, they probably wouldn’t be able to advance so quickly . ”

She sneered inside . How did this old fox become so stupid now? Hadn’t he just stuck out his face to be slapped?

“Haha, that’s fine . Any supermonastery’s disciple should get resources . It’s just that I’ve heard that these people have called themselves the Dragonblood Legion and only listen to Long Chen . After enjoying everything the Xuantian Dao Sect has given them, they actually want to form a private group and separate from the sect? Don't you think that’s going a bit too far?” Zhou Tianyi laughed, extremely pleased .

Shui Wuhen’s expression changed . Old foxes truly were wily; all of their words contained traps . He had intentionally brought up this matter in front of the vice sect master .

According to reason, the Xuantian Dao Sect’s disciples all had to listen to the sect’s orders . It was not permitted to create private powers . Now Shui Wuhen had no reply .

But it was vice sect master who suddenly said, “I’ve previously said that the matters of the junior generation are things us old fellows shouldn’t interfere in . Zhou Tianyi, has your memory degenerated from old age?”

His expression was somewhat dark, and his tone was extremely discourteous . Zhou Tianyi was immediately stuck in a hard position, unable to reply .

“Private groups? Your Shui, Zhou, Qu, and w.a.n.g families all control nine supermonasteries . Don’t those count as private groups? Should I tell the sect master that you want me to disband your four families?” The vice sect master’s voice was icy .

“I…” Zhou Tianyi was dumbfounded . How was the vice sect master so rude to him today? This was clearly a slap in the face .

“I’ve never said anything about your four families’ open and hidden fights . Because of that, did you really think I’m an idiot and didn’t see any of it?

“Struggle is an important aspect of a sect’s development . Of course, it’s impossible to guarantee that all struggles will have a positive effect . So as long as your little fights didn’t affect the Xuantian Dao Sect’s development, no one was bored enough to say anything to you .

“But Zhou Tianyi, I’m sure you’re the most aware of what you’ve done . Although that matter has pa.s.sed, it doesn’t mean it didn’t happen . If you dare to try something like that again, I guarantee I will be the first to bring my blade down on your Zhou family, understood?” The vice sect master’s final words caused Zhou Tianyi to tremble .

He and the other family heads were shocked . They had always thought that their fights had remained hidden from the higher-ups .

However, it wasn’t that they didn’t know . In fact, they were probably even clearer about what was going on than them . The truth was that they simply couldn’t be bothered with them . But if they really ended up causing damage to the Xuantian Dao Sect, then the merciless butcher’s knife would immediately fall .

Shui Wuhen hadn’t expected that the vice sect master would defend her so much today . She couldn’t help sighing inside . If people wanted the authority to speak, then they truly did need power .

She knew that the vice sect master was looking after her because he had sensed the change in her . After all, he was a Foundation Forging expert .

This was the importance of power . Compared to someone in charge of nine supermonasteries, a Foundation Forging expert was even more important .

An administrator could be replaced with any somewhat powerful family . But a Foundation Forging expert was too hard to come by .

It was laughable how these people spent all day scheming against each other . Even when they were sleeping, they were pondering the best way to suppress their opponents .
