Chapter 2176: Return the Principal with Interest

The Lord of Chenxin Palace frowned. Situ Reading

М

Ye Feng was also puzzled. Why did Master Qianniao take the initiative to speak for him? If I remember correctly, he didn't seem to have much friendship with Qianniao Zhai before.

"Qianniao, what do you mean? There is solid evidence that this kid broke into our palace and injured our disciples."

"And he can't explain the reason for his sudden increase in strength. Isn't it enough to show that he is a slave subdued by the demon god?"

The Lord of Chenxin Palace snorted in dissatisfaction.

Master Qianniao's face did not change. He shook his head lightly and said: "Everyone like us martial arts practitioners has his own secrets. Maybe he doesn't want to expose these secrets."

"Besides, he didn't do anything too outrageous, and there is no evidence that he is from the Demon God Palace."

"On the contrary, I have heard that Tianji Palace has always enslaved the disciples of Wanjue Sect. Ye Feng used to be a disciple of Wanjue Sect. It is reasonable that he is unhappy."

Hearing this, the Lord of Chenxin Palace's face became even gloomier.

"Qian Niao, what do you mean? Are you secretly colluding with this kid? You actually took sides right away?"

"Palace Master Chen Xin, you worry too much. I just think that Ye Feng's return and his strength have greatly improved, which is a happy event for the entire Demon Slayer Alliance. It is a pillar to fight against the Demon God Palace. It is not appropriate to convict him without knowing what is going on."

Master Qian Niao looked like he wanted to maintain a neutral attitude.

Palace Master Chen Xin snorted coldly and looked at Xue Luosha and Xuanyin Sect Leader: "What do you two mean?"

Xue Luosha's face was pale and his momentum was weak. It can be clearly felt that he was injured.

He and Xuanyin Sect Leader exchanged a glance, and the latter spoke: "Palace Master Chenxin, after all, Ye Feng severely damaged the Taotie Demon God in the past, which gave us a chance to breathe. His sudden return is indeed a bit puzzling..."

"But all this still needs to be investigated slowly. There is no need to tear each other apart right away. If it is just a misunderstanding, then the internal consumption of both sides will not benefit the Demon God Palace in vain?"

The Xuanyin Sect Leader smiled faintly, and looked at each other with Qianniao Shangren, then turned to look at Ye Feng and said:

"Ye Feng, it is indeed a gratifying thing that you can return safely after missing for several years."

"We are not trying to favor anyone. What Palace Master Chenxin said makes sense. Why don't we sit down calmly and have a good talk to clear up the misunderstanding?"

Ye Feng looked at them, but did not answer immediately, but was thinking.

To be honest, he was not familiar with the people present.

Xuanyin Sect and Luosha Sect were one of the eight sects of the Demonic Path in the past. Although they had not had a violent conflict with Wanjue Sect, they were also enemies.

Now the two sect leaders clearly wanted to speak for him, which made Ye Feng confused about their intentions.

It sounded like they were helping him, but it always felt a bit weird.

After a while, Ye Feng said, "You two have a point. I came to Tianji Palace this time to talk to Chen Xin. However, as soon as they showed up, they shouted for war and killing without asking any questions. They insisted that I was from the Demon God Palace. Then I could only reluctantly take action. It was all helpless."

"Palace Master Chen Xin has been the head of the alliance in recent years. He has been thinking about how to deal with the Demon God Palace every day. It may be a habit." The leader of the Xuanyin Sect smiled faintly.

"It's okay to talk it out. Why don't you put away the spiritual weapon and follow us in to talk?"

Ye Feng's eyes moved, and he did not take back the Moon-Slashing Knife as he meant.

Seeing this, Palace Master Chen Xin snorted again.

"You all saw it, this kid is ignorant and has ulterior motives, how can we sit down and have a good talk?"

Master Qianniao laughed and stood up again, trying to smooth things over, and said to Ye Feng: "Junior Brother Ye, you finally came back, and we will be allies on the same front in the future. If you have anything to say, talk about it nicely. Put away the spiritual weapon first?"

Ye Feng glanced at him, smiled and put away the Moon-Slashing Sword.

However, he did not move to enter the Tianji Hall.

"You can talk, but I have a request. The Tianji Hall or the Demon-Slaying Alliance must return all the materials that have been withheld from my Wanjue Sect in the past few years. Otherwise... I think there is nothing to talk about."

"This..."

"Hmph, kid Ye, don't push your luck."

"The current situation on the mainland has changed suddenly, and resources are tight. Everyone is allocated according to needs and rewarded according to merit. Wanjue Sect can get as much as it can. How can there be any withholding?"

A figure flashed at the door of the hall in front.

Mo Lin, the third elder of the Tianji Hall, appeared from nowhere.

He stared at Ye Feng with his eyes, and his voice was full of coldness.

Ye Feng saw this old guy.

At that time, Mo Lin was seriously injured, and it was he who used the true demon energy to rescue him. I didn't see him at the first time, and I thought that this old guy had died.

Unexpectedly, he was still alive.

At that moment, Ye Feng said coldly: "Then according to the Third Elder, you are not going to admit this account, right?"

"Even if it can be proved in the end that I am not a spy of the Demon God Palace, I will not admit that the Tianji Palace has withheld the materials of my Wanjue Sect over the years, right?"

Mo Lin's face turned cold: "Young man Ye, didn't I say that all the resources given to each sect were decided by the top leaders of the alliance, and there was no debt or withholding... I think you are making excuses. Since you don't want to negotiate, just say it directly. Why find such a poor excuse?"

"Hahaha, the alliance's top leaders decided? Aren't you guys the ones who are in charge of the alliance now? Old Mo Lin, you are really getting better at confusing right and wrong."

Ye Feng sneered and didn't talk nonsense with him. Instead, he turned to look at Master Qianniao and Xuanyin Sect Leader: "Ladies and gentlemen, it's not that I don't want to talk now, but... they don't give me the opportunity to talk."

"Ye Feng, let me be fair. The deduction you just mentioned is indeed inappropriate. In the past few years, everyone has paid a huge price to fight against the Demon God Palace. I believe you are also very clear about the situation of Wan Jue Sect now. It is indeed impossible to allocate too many resources... This is indeed a decision made unanimously after the top leaders of the alliance discussed it."

"Well... why not give it to other sects that need it more."

Master Qianniao coughed dryly, looking like he was doing things impartially.

Ye Feng looked at him and chuckled: "Alliance leaders, you... must be members of the alliance's top leaders? So, everyone thinks so?"

The cold eyes swept over Xuanyin Sect Leader and Xue Luosha at the same time.

The faces of several people changed slightly, but they all nodded lightly.

Obviously, they agreed with Master Qiandiao's words.

"Ye Feng, we know that you are back now and you will feel unhappy when you see your sect declining. If you really need urgently needed supplies, apply in advance. The alliance will approve it."

Master Qiandiao spoke again, with a tone that was good for Ye Feng.

Ye Feng laughed out loud: "Apply? Oh, it's really good. Okay, then I will apply on the spot. Please give me a copy of the supplies on this list. My sect is in urgent need!"

He threw out a piece of paper casually.

It recorded the supplies that Wan Jue Sect had swallowed up over the years.

The amount for each month was clearly written.
