Yun Shan was so angry that his face turned iron blue, and he shouted: “You dare to criticize me, Ye Changsheng? “I haven’t blamed you yet, but you’re actually blaming me. How dare you!”
Ye Qiu was not afraid at all and instead asked: “What, does Father-in-law think what I said is wrong?”
“A kind person cannot command an army, a righteous person cannot do business, a benevolent person cannot be in power, a kind person cannot be an official, and a person ruled by emotions cannot accomplish things.”
“Father-in-law, you should have heard this saying, right?”
Yun Shan stared at Ye Qiu and cursed in his heart: “This brat actually dares to teach me a lesson. Damn it!”
If it weren’t for the fact that Ye Qiu had a relationship with the Supreme Elder, Yun Shan would definitely have beaten Ye Qiu first and then reasoned with him.”
“This brat is sharp-tongued. I can’t follow his rhythm. I have to take the initiative.”
“Otherwise, in the future, as his father-in-law, wouldn’t I be at his mercy everywhere?”
Yun Shan thought of this and shouted sternly: “Ye Changsheng, I repeatedly told you not to leave the backyard. Why didn’t you listen?”
“It’s okay if you don’t listen, but why did you have to take this Demon Race out and show off in public?”
“Let’s not talk about flaunting around in the market for now. Why did you have a conflict with the elders?”
“Do you think someone is covering you, so you are unbridled?”
“Or do you not take me seriously at all?”
Ye Qiu said neither humbly nor arrogantly: “Father-in-law, you have misunderstood. I did this all for you…”
“For me?” Yun Shan sneered and said: “Do you know how much trouble it will cause me for a demon race to appear here?”
Ye Qiu smiled and said: “There is no trouble for now, isn’t there?”
“You——” Yun Shan was so angry that he was speechless. Then he continued: “Although this matter has been temporarily resolved, those elders will definitely not let it go.”
“So I said Father-in-law, you are too kind.” Ye Qiu said: “To be honest with you, the reason why I was high-profile was actually to draw the snake out of the hole.”
“My real target is Chen Beidou.”
“I want to help you get rid of him.”
“But I didn’t expect that besides Chen Beidou, so many elders were also drawn out.”
“Father-in-law, to be honest, when I saw those eight elders, I was shocked and thought you had passed away…”
Yun Shan glared: “Can you speak properly?”
“My son-in-law spoke out of turn. Father-in-law, don’t be angry.” Ye Qiu smiled and continued: “Those eight elders actually wore mourning clothes for Chen Tianming. Those who know know that they are the elders of Qingyun Sword Sect. Those who don’t know may think they are the family slaves of the Chen family.”
A cold light flashed in Yun Shan’s eyes.
The reason why he had previously slapped the Seventh Elder was actually largely because seeing those elders wearing mourning clothes made him very unhappy.
”Father-in-law, do you know what I was feeling at that time?”
”Seeing those eight elders wearing mourning clothes, I wasn’t angry at all. I just felt sorry for you.”
Ye Qiu said, “Those elders are in cahoots with Chen Beidou, but for the sake of the overall situation of the Qingyun Sword Sect, you still have to be polite to them. It’s hard to imagine how much grievance you have suffered behind these things.”
”As a man, I fully understand your difficulties.”
”Over the years, you have had it really hard.”
Yun Shan was extremely touched when he heard these words.
He suddenly had the feeling of finding a bosom friend.
Over the years, for the sake of the Qingyun Sword Sect, he had endured humiliation and compromise, so that in the eyes of others, he was a cowardly and incompetent sect master.
But where did others know that the Qingyun Sword Sect was facing both internal and external troubles. If it weren’t for Yun Shan’s forbearance and humiliation, I’m afraid the Qingyun Sword Sect would have been wiped out long ago.
Yun Shan had done a lot of things, suffered a lot of anger and grievance, but he couldn’t say it, couldn’t show it, and couldn’t find someone to complain to.
Because he was not only the sect master, but also a man!
A man bleeds but doesn’t shed tears. No matter what kind of suffering or grievance, he has to swallow it himself.
This is like the men in many families. They work hard outside, endure hardships and fatigue, but when they return home, they still have to pretend that nothing has happened.
Yun Shan looked at Ye Qiu.
For the first time, he found that this kid seemed more and more pleasing to the eye.
“Alas!”
Yun Shan sighed and said, “Whether it is a country, a sect, or a family, the most feared thing is internal strife.”
“The Great Elder used to have a higher cultivation level than me. He won over some people and was arrogant and domineering in front of me. I endured it all.”
“Because I understand that if I have a conflict with him, then there will definitely be turmoil in the Qingyun Sword Sect.”
“Once there is turmoil in the Qingyun Sword Sect, it will give the Five Sects Alliance an opportunity to take advantage of.”
“At that time, the Qingyun Sword Sect will be in a disastrous situation.”
“So, for the sake of the overall situation, it doesn’t matter if I personally suffer a little grievance.”
When Yun Shan said this, his tone became softer and he said, “Changsheng, in fact, since you stepped out of the backyard, I have been very clear about your every move.”
“I didn’t stop you because I knew you wanted to draw the snake out of the hole.”
“Actually, I also wanted to see which people were in cahoots with Chen Beidou? But what I never expected was that eight elders would actually wear mourning clothes for Chen Tianming. It’s simply absurd.”
“We have rules in the Qingyun Sword Sect. Only when the Sect Master or the Supreme Elder falls, will the elders wear mourning clothes.”
“A mere Chen Tianming, what kind of virtue and ability does he have to actually make eight elders wear mourning clothes?”
Ye Qiu said: “If father-in-law doesn’t stop it, then Chen Beidou and the others won’t be able to live today.”
“Don’t talk big!” Yun Shan scolded, and then said earnestly: “Changsheng, I know you want to solve the trouble for me, but for anything, you can’t be impulsive.”
“Ten elders, nine sages, and one great sage. With such a formation, even if I die in battle, it’s impossible to kill them all.”
“Do you think that with just the three of you, you can kill them?”
Yun Shan said: “There is another reason why I spoke out to stop this conflict.”
“These ten elders are the foundation of our Qingyun Sword Sect. If the five sects’ alliance attacks our Qingyun Sword Sect, then they will be the backbone to resist the enemy.
“So, they can’t die.”
“Moreover, after Chen Beidou had his eight-hundred-year cultivation base abolished by the Supreme Elder, his current realm is equivalent to mine. He is no longer as arrogant in front of me as before. As long as you give me some time, I believe I can make him willingly support me.”
Ye Qiu said: “Father-in-law, I’m afraid this is just your wishful thinking. Chen Beidou said in front of the Sect Master that he wants to be the Sect Master of the Qingyun Sword Sect.”
Yun Shan smiled and said: “Whether it’s wishful thinking or something else, in short, I hope that the Qingyun Sword Sect can be united and work together against the outside world.”
“The big ship of Qingyun Sword Sect really can’t afford to withstand any wind and waves.”
“As long as we can defend Qingyun Sword Sect, even if I die, I will have no regrets!”
“All right, you go back to the backyard first!”
Yunshan waved his hand, looking a little tired.
Immediately, Ye Qiu took Yun Xi and Baihua Fairy, as well as Changmei Zhenren and Niu Dali and left the council hall.
As soon as they left, Yunshan seemed to have changed into a different person, and the whole person was like a sharp sword out of its sheath, with a sharp edge.
