Chapter 282.1

Appearance (2)

The Great Elder is a little bit on the edge these days.

Originally, for the Great Elder, the power of the Second Elder was not enough to face him at all. However, as the battle between the two sides deepened this time, some of the hidden forces of the two elders gradually surfaced. It wasn’t until this time that the Great Elder knew that the Second Elder had been hiding himself so deeply.

This made the Great Elder very unhappy.

But it’s okay to be unhappy, he still thinks he has a great advantage. After all, the power of the Second Elder is mainly concentrated in the peripheral families, but the power of the Great Elder is concentrated in the Ziqing Sacred Land.

So purely from the perspective of high-end combat power, the Great Elder crushes the Second Elder.

It’s just that now the Great Elder’s every move is under the surveillance of the Tiangang Sword Sect, so he can’t easily use these powers. But never mind, the time is coming. When the Ziqing Sacred Land’s internal struggle became fierce to a certain extent, he would have enough reasons to attack the Second Elder. At that time, even the Tiangang Sword Sect could not stop him.

But while he was waiting for the opportunity, Tang Fei’s opportunity came one step ahead.

On this day, as usual, the Great Elder reviewed the letters sent from all directions in his own room. Those who sent him these letters were those family forces belonging to him. They explained their current situation in the letters and expressed the hope that the Great Elder could provide them with support.

After reading more than a dozen letters in a row, the content was the same, which made the Elder a little annoyed.

But for him, the situation of these families is not worth paying too much attention to. After all, a peripheral family is a peripheral family, and to him, it is equivalent to a steward who manages his wealth for him. It doesn’t matter if the butler is dead, as long as he wants, he can recruit several times more butlers at any time. There are not many other things in this domain, but there are many people. Humans are like leeks, once a crop is cut, another crop will grow immediately, and the growth will only get better and better.

So even if all these families are extinct, he doesn’t care.

The Great Elder is even promoting the demise of these families intentionally or unintentionally. Because when the peripheral families were all dead, he would have a reason to send the real elite under his command to start a full-scale war against the Second Elder.

Those families clinging to the Great Elder did not realize that to the Great Elder, they were really just pawns that could be discarded at any time. Even their demise is something the Great Elder will take advantage of.

How sad!

Just when the Great Elder was thinking about whether he should make a move, a disciple suddenly pushed the door in hastily, and shouted at the Great Elder, “Master, it’s bad, it’s bad!”

The Great Elder frowned, and reprimanded: “What’s the point of being flustered? You are still my direct disciple, so you can’t calm down when things happen, what can you do in the future?”

The disciple said with a sad face, “Master, don’t blame the disciple at this time! Something is wrong!”

“What’s the big deal?” asked the Great Elder impatiently.

Although on the surface, the Great Elder was at a disadvantage in the fight against the Second Elder, that was only on the surface. No one knows this better than the Great Elder himself. The more happy the Second Elder is outside, the sooner they will die in the future.

But what the disciple said next made the Great Elder turn pale with shock.

The disciple said eagerly, “Tang Fei and Murong Pianpian are back! They said they would come back to succeed the Holy Lord!”

—————————

The sudden return of Tang Fei and Murong Pianpian is indeed a terrible event for the Ziqing Sacred Land.

Under the management of the Great Elder for the past three years, Tang Fei basically had no influence, and later even lost his position as the holy son. Letting Tang Fei follow Liang Wei to Qiankun Palace earlier was just to take advantage of Tang Fei’s amazing luck and use it as cannon fodder. But in the Great Elder’s mind, Tang Fei has long been a grasshopper after autumn, and he won’t be able to jump for a few days.

Until later, a direct conflict broke out between the Great Elder and the Second Elder.

With the strong intervention of the Tiangang Sword Sect, the Ziqing Sacred Land’s internal fierce struggle was once again shifted from the bright side to the dark side. At this time, Tang Fei, who was originally regarded as an abandoned son, became a very good cover. As for the Great Elder, in the past two months, it was under the guise of Tang Fei that he managed to control the Ziqing Sacred Land smoothly.

But pretense is pretense. The Great Elder’s current attitude towards Tang Fei is different. When Tang Fei was not around, he could express his appreciation and preference for Tang Fei as much as possible. But if Tang Fei really appeared, it would be another matter.

That’s the mentality of the Great Elder right now.

Tang Fei chose the timing very cleverly, just when the Great Elder was about to make a move but couldn’t.

And what’s more, he didn’t come here alone but brought Murong Pianpian, the Second Elder, and many peripheral family patriarchs including Murong Hou.

Under the escort of the Tiangang Sword Sect, Tang Fei and others returned to Ziqing Mountain steadily and immediately asked everyone in the entire Ziqing Sacred Land to come out and pay homage to him, the holy son.

Originally, Tang Fei had been deprived of the position of the holy son, but who made the Great Elder reinstate him to the position of the holy son in order to use him as a cover?

Therefore, Tang Fei’s request is justified and supported by “power” and “authority.”

Although it is borrowed.
