Qing Yu's words were extrely sincere, and he did not lie.
Qing Yu indeed had little regard for power, nor did he have strong control desires like Ji Chengtian.
As long as allies did not interfere with him, he would not treat them poorly. Power for Qing Yu was rely a ans to advance his martial arts, rather than a life's reliance.
"I have said my piece. You understand my intention. It's up to you to decide." Qing Yu said.
His expression remained calm, as if he didn't care much whether he succeeded in winning them over.
On the contrary, Lin Zixiao was indeed moved this ti.
Though Qing Yu was ruthless, he truly was soone dedicated purely to martial arts. Lin Zixiao saw this clearly and understood.
"Let ponder this for a while."
Lin Zixiao still hadn't made a decision, ending the conversation just like that.
Putting the Yangtian Jade Pendant into his chest, Lin Zixiao walked out of his room onto the balcony, looking down at the towering buildings below and the bustling crowd on the streets.
This was Hou Qian's Imperial City, the current Sect headquarters of Shenxiao Dao.
After Hou Qian was established, Shenxiao Dao moved here and stood so close to Hou Qian that they were almost inseparable.
Now, even if they wanted to separate, it was a bit difficult.
"Knock, knock—"
"Junior Brother."
A knock on the door along with Zhengtian Taoist's voice ca through.
"Zhengtian Senior Brother, co in." Lin Zixiao said calmly.
Zhengtian Taoist pushed open the door, crossed the room, and walked onto the balcony.
"Junior Brother, are you still blaming ?" Seeing Lin Zixiao's figure not turning, Zhengtian Taoist couldn't help but say bitterly.
"Do you really not see whether I'm blaming you, Senior Brother?" Lin Zixiao naturally saw Zhengtian Taoist's bitterness, but had no thought of forgiving him.
Lin Zixiao's scheming, though slightly inferior to Shengde Emperor, would not pale much. If Shenxiao Dao was in today's mire, it wasn't that Lin Zixiao's mind was inferior but that he trusted the wrong person.
He never thought his trusted Zhengtian Senior Brother, would be the greatest betrayer.
If it weren't for Zhengtian Taoist assisting Shengde Emperor, Lin Zixiao would not have stepped into the mire realizing he was tricked.
"Junior Brother, I know you bla , but isn't Shenxiao Dao's current situation good? Within Hou Qian, all Jianghu forces are under our control. Shenxiao Dao is growing stronger, and will soday be revered as Hou Qian's state religion.
Seeing this future, even eting old masters in the Netherworld, they can't bla ." Zhengtian Taoist said confidently.
"Today's situation is certainly excellent, but this does not change Shenxiao Dao gradually becoming Ji Chengtian's running dog."
With cold words, interrupting Zhengtian Taoist's words, Lin Zixiao suddenly turned, his expression like clouds before a storm, full of gloom and coldness, "Senior Brother seed to have missed sothing, like your beloved grandson, like the things you've done for Ji Chengtian!"
Zhengtian Taoist's grandson Qu Zhen, an overly dramatic youth, always believed in invincible reasoning. If defeated, it would leave a psychological shadow, even if retreat.
Thus his mindset was the legendary Long Aotian, only knowing how to charge forward.
The reason his mindset beca this way was due to Zhengtian Taoist's indulgence.
Last year, Qu Zhen t a black-clad woman wielding sinister Yin Evil Sword Energy to murder, and out of so psychological impulse, intervened. The result was unpleasant, pierced through limbs by Sword Qi, almost killed.
If not for tily rescue, Qu Zhen might have directly returned to the Netherworld. But even surviving, Qu Zhen was entirely crippled.
His mysterious ntal state left shadows on himself, making him finally fear and tremble, a Divine Origin Realm Martial Artist actually shivering while walking.
However, not long after Qu Zhen was crippled, Zhengtian Taoist found a solution to the psychological issue, allowing him to escape shadows and stand up again. More than that, Qu Zhen's Realm breakthrough made him the first True Core Realm Martial Artist of his generation.
"Originally, I didn't know why you betrayed our Sect, until investigating Qu Zhen, I understood."
Purple lightning flashed in Lin Zixiao's eyes, like heavenly thunder locking tightly onto Zhengtian Taoist, "Senior Brother, are you truly doing this for Shenxiao Dao?"
Back then, Lin Zixiao asserted Qu Zhen would eventually be ruined, but didn't expect one Qu Zhen to bring such calamity to Shenxiao Dao.
"Had I known, I would not have sent people to save Qu Zhen." Lin Zixiao said with killing intent.
Back when Qu Zhen faced danger, if not for Lin Zixiao tily sending people, he would have long flown to the nether. At that ti Lin Zixiao never thought, his tily rescue would bring such disaster.
Zhengtian Taoist's expression was uncertain, seed guilty, also helpless. He sighed wearily and said: "Junior Brother, if you're angry, vent it on Senior Brother, but if it involves Zhen'er, don't bla Senior Brother for turning against you. Now the Emperor has taken Zhen'er as disciple. Once he takes over the Dao Master position, Shenxiao Dao in Hou Qian will be at its zenith. If you spoil such a future, don't bla Senior Brother for being ruthless!"
"Ruthless? Senior Brother, you seem to have forgotten the gap in strength between us."
Lin Zixiao's eyes were filled with purple lightning, his sleeves whirling, seeming to contain thunder and lightning, "And you even decided the future Dao Master's position, are you treating , the Dao Master, as a puppet?"
"Junior Brother, can't you compromise a bit?"
Zhengtian Taoist's eyes also flashed with lightning, "If you give up leaving Hou Qian, I still respect you as the Dao Master, follow your commands. Isn't the current situation of Shenxiao Dao good? Why do you insist on putting everyone in danger?"
"Compromise, if it were an option, back then our fathers and senior uncles wouldn't have rebelled from Dragon Tiger Mountain. Wouldn't have persisted under Dragon Tiger Mountain's pursuit for decades, even at the cost of many lives. Compromise has never existed within Shenxiao Dao."
What answered him was even more fierce and domineering aura, Lin Zixiao bathed entirely in lightning, violent thunder and lightning raging, firmly suppressing Zhengtian Taoist.
After all, he is the Shenxiao Dao Master, in terms of strength and combat power, both win over Zhengtian Taoist.
The two competed in aura, Zhengtian Taoist retreated and retreated, eventually even his figure involuntarily stepped back, looking pale and gloomy.
"The montum is thus, you can't stop it. Shenxiao Dao has already rged with Hou Qian."
Feeling embarrassed, Zhengtian Taoist left these words, then flicked his sleeve and left.
"Can't stop it, that might not be······"
Watching the departing figure, Lin Zixiao took out the retrieved Jade Pendant again.
