Chapter 363: Can't Help but Ridicule
The elder lowered his head in silence without saying a word.
The leader of the Aojian Sect spoke coldly.
"Raise your head."
"Are you very unconvinced?"
The elder took a deep breath and slowly raised his head.
His originally gloomy eyes instantly became calm.
"I am not unconvinced. You are the leader of the sect, so you can do anything."
"I am just reminding the leader that you must not be careless when the Aojian Sect is at stake."
The leader of the Aojian Sect did not believe it.
And no matter how well the other party concealed his eyes, he was not stupid and naturally knew that the other party would not be so calm.
"It's good that you know it. Don't be careless. There are still many places where you can be used in the future. Don't hate me. Remember, you are just an elder. I promoted you, so you have status. If I abandon you, what do you think you are?"
"Betray me? Even if you join Buyumen, people won't believe you."
"You have done a lot for Aojianmen over the years, and you have offended many people. There is no other way out, right?"
"Behave yourself, don't try to step on my head. You don't have the brains, why should I let you be the elder? Don't push your luck, understand?"
The elder nodded slowly after hearing this.
"The master is right."
"I will remember it."
"I will go back first and think about how to deal with the current situation. Please agree."
The master of Aojianmen sneered and nodded.
The elder left, but the gloomy look after turning around made people feel cold, but the master of Aojianmen couldn't see it.
After the elder returned to his residence, he almost tore down the entire roof. He was so angry that he almost went crazy. This was the first time he was slapped by the sect master, and the first time he was slapped by someone. He never thought that someone would treat him like this, and it was the sect master.
He did so much for Ao Jian Men. Now Ao Jian Men has such a status, and it is not because of his advice behind the scenes. Now he is treated like this. It is obvious that he made the wrong decision, embarrassed himself, and cheated Ao Jian Men, but now it seems that it is all his fault.
The elder was naturally uneasy in his heart, and even wanted to betray Ao Jian Men, but the sect master was right. He did offend too many people, and the things he did for Ao Jian Men, Buyu Men would not accept him, let alone believe him. No matter how dissatisfied he was, he had to continue to stay in Ao Jian Men.
Ao Jian Men must be saved, otherwise his life would not be saved. In any case, Ao Jian Men must exist.
"No, that's not right. It's hard for Aojianmen to come back to life. Even if I help him, will he thank me?"
"What status will I have in Aojianmen in the future?"
He could be said to be another leader in the past.
But now that the leader treats him like this, the people in the sect will naturally change their minds. When they don't need him anymore, they will just throw him away. He will have no status at all. Who knows, the leader might do something if he's unhappy.
It's better to take advantage of now and get out of here.
But if I tell Buyumen that I want to leave Aojianmen and don't want to help the leader of Aojianmen, Su Zhan and Liu Zhenzhen won't believe it.
Unless, I show them enough sincerity to believe in myself.
Thinking of this, the leader of Aojianmen soon had a good idea.
Soon, he went to see the leader of Aojianmen.
"You came up with a good idea so quickly. You are worthy of being the elder."
"Aojianmen can't do without you. No wonder you are so arrogant."
The leader of Aojianmen couldn't help but mock when he heard the elder say he had an idea.
After all, his idea failed, but he couldn't hope that the other party's idea would not succeed, otherwise, wouldn't it mean that Aojianmen had no way out?
No matter what, he couldn't think like this, otherwise, what good would happen to him.
The elder pretended not to understand his sarcasm and continued.
"Master, I think I can take the things in the treasure pavilion privately to win people's hearts. Our former allies are just afraid now, but as long as they feel that it is profitable, they will naturally change their minds. I am confident that I can convince them to continue to help us."
"Even if they announce that they will not help us on the surface, but continue to help us secretly, they can hit Buyumen without any defense, so that our chances of winning are a little greater."
As soon as these words came out.
The master of Aojianmen was very angry.
"Are you crazy? You want to open my treasure pavilion? They have chosen to betray, how can they deserve my things?"
The elder remained calm.
He spoke earnestly.
"No one will blindly please us. Now that Buyu Sect is stronger and has more helpers, there will naturally be people who are sitting on the fence and wavering. As long as we fight for it, they will still help us. Do we have any other choice?"
"Master, I know that others always please us in the past, but it's time now. If we still can't lower our posture, then Aojian Sect will no longer exist, and our fate can be imagined. I am also for you, for myself, and for the entire Aojian Sect."
"Anyway, after sending these things out and getting rid of Su Zhan and Liu Zhenzhen, we can recuperate and take them back. Now we are just keeping them for a while, temporarily. Maybe when they return them to us in the future, they will give more, otherwise the master will be unhappy and they will have no chance to survive."
"Master, tell me, am I right?"
The elder knew that the master of Aojian Sect was arrogant.
But the problem is that the current situation of Aojian Sect cannot tolerate the other party's behavior.
Besides, the other party is the one who least wants Aojianmen to fall. If possible, the other party naturally wishes that Aojianmen can survive forever, otherwise what is the meaning of his existence as the leader?
Besides, the other party can't think of any other good ideas. If possible, he won't be stupid enough to use the leader of Liyunmen to make Wei Yun defect. Now only he can make up for it.
After all, to win over outside helpers, the leader will definitely not give up his face. The person who goes must have status, strength and loyalty. This person is the most suitable, there is no other choice.
The elder believes that the other party will be willing.
Sure enough, the leader of Aojianmen struggled for a long time, but still nodded.
"Forget it, just do as you say."
"Don't take the most valuable ones."
The leader of Aojianmen threw out a token and handed it to the elder.
This is the token to open the top layer of Aojianmen. There are many good brothers inside, and usually only he can enter and exit freely.
However, the elder did not agree.
"At this time, we naturally want the best, otherwise what's the use?"
"Besides, if we take out the best, those people will think we have better things, otherwise why would they give them such things? Naturally, they think that Ao Jian Men has a deep foundation and is more willing to help us. At this time, we must be willing to give up, only by giving up can we gain."
"Anyway, we can take it back later."
"Don't worry."
The leader of Ao Jian Men looked at the elder gloomily, and the elder looked back without flinching. After a stalemate for a while, the leader of Ao Jian Men was defeated and spoke angrily.
"You'd better take it back."
"Go away."
The elder nodded.
Anyway, the promise is not to have any other extra things.
Isn't it said?
"Master, don't worry, I will never let you down."
After saying that, the elder turned and left.
He went straight to the treasure pavilion, took away everything on the most valuable floor, and went to other floors to pick and choose, and then left the treasure pavilion and Ao Jian Men.
He did not try to persuade any of his former allies, but went straight to the Bu Yu Gate.
He did not go through the main gate of Buyu Sect, but went to the back mountain of Aojian Sect, changed his appearance, and asked to see Su Zhan.
The guard did not dare to neglect and went to see Su Zhan. Su Zhan was very confused. Someone actually wanted to see him? He was not afraid and met the other party immediately.
When the elder saw that there were only two people, he restored his original appearance.
Su Zhan knew that the other party was not his true appearance, but he did not expect that it was the elder of Aojian Sect.
"It's you, why did you come to see me?"
"Do you want me to help Aojian Sect?"
"That's impossible."
"Why are you so confused?"
Su Zhan said with a smile.
The other party immediately shook his head with a very kind smile.
"Fellow Daoist Su misunderstood."
"I'm not here to persuade you to help Aojian Sect, I want to help Buyu Sect."
After this, Su Zhan smiled even more.
"You are the great elder of Aojianmen. Are you going to abandon Aojianmen?"
"It's really strange."
"I heard that you are the think tank of Aojianmen. Are you trying to plot against me, Su?"
"I advise you to just forget it."
The great elder of Aojianmen spoke quickly.
"No, no, no, no, I'm not plotting against you."
"I really want to abandon Aojianmen. The leader of the sect has not been as good to me as before recently. I'm worried that the cunning rabbit will die and the running dog will be cooked, so I just want to find a way out for myself."
"I will work with you inside and outside, which will make it easier for you to get rid of Aojianmen, but you have to let me go afterwards, how about that?"
How could Su Zhan believe his few words? He smiled without saying anything.
The great elder of Aojianmen knew this would happen, and immediately handed a storage ring to Su Zhan.
"I cheated the things in here from the Sect Master. Now I give them to you and Sect Master Liu. Please see my sincerity, raise your hands and give me a chance."
The Great Elder of Aojian Sect was very nervous, afraid that Su Zhan would not believe him.
In fact, Su Zhan was really skeptical, but now he believed it more than half.
After all, if you take these things out, you have to make up your mind. It is impossible to take them back. If what the other party said is true, then he is really sincere.
If it is false, then he is willing to take it out.
Su Zhan looked at the other party with a smile.
"Why don't you ask to see Sect Master Liu directly?"
"Instead, see me first?"
The Great Elder of Aojian Sect spoke carefully.
"I know that Sect Master Liu must respect Su Daoyou's opinion."
"Therefore, I want to convince Su Daoyou first, and please believe me."
"I am really sincere. Give me a chance, how about it?"
Su Zhan did not give an answer, but asked someone to invite Liu Zhenzhen.
Liu Zhenzhen came over and saw, wow, the Great Elder of Aojian Sect.
After finding out what happened, Liu Zhenzhen asked someone to take the great elder of Aojianmen to rest, and discussed with Su Zhan alone whether to trust the other party.
"Fellow Daoist Su, what do you think?"
Liu Zhenzhen asked.
Although if the great elder of Aojianmen really turned against them, it would be a great help to them. After all, he was the person that the leader of Aojianmen trusted the most. It would be much easier for them to eliminate Aojianmen and even the staunch supporters of Aojianmen.
But if the other party was a liar, it was very likely that they would be led into a trap.
In any case, they must be careful, otherwise they might have an advantage but lose everything. Isn't it unfair?
Su Zhan understood the other party's concerns, but he felt that the elder must have really changed sides.
"I think we can trust the elder."
As for the reason, Su Zhan would naturally explain.
"Think about it, if the elder didn't really change sides, why would he bring these things here?"
Su Zhan handed the storage ring given to him by the elder to the other party.
Liu Zhenzhen took a look and immediately understood why Su Zhan believed the other party.
"These things are indeed very precious. If you want to deceive us, it's a bit risky."
Liu Zhenzhen said.
Su Zhan nodded.
"Not only that, in fact, if he didn't want to give himself a way out, the Great Elder of Aojian Sect should have used these things to bribe other people, not us."
"It's very risky to come to see us. He is a smart man. He may not be able to go back. Wouldn't he know that? And these things, if he doesn't have them, they will naturally be left behind. The leader of Aojian Sect will also lose these things. Isn't he afraid?"
"The leader of Aojian Sect will definitely not let him bring these here."
"The Great Elder must have lied, and then secretly came to see us, wanting to give himself a way out. He has already given up Aojian Sect."
The more Liu Zhenzhen listened, the more he felt that it made sense.
Indeed, if it was just to lie to them, a Great Elder would be enough.
What's more, the Great Elder has a very high status in Aojian Sect.
As long as the leader of Aojian Sect is not stupid, he will not sacrifice the Great Elder at this time.
And those things, with the greed of Aojian Sect, they will not take risks. If there is any mistake, these will all be theirs, and the other party can't take them back at all. How can they not worry? It's impossible.
In other words, Su Zhan's guess was correct. The Great Elder lied to bring these to Bu Yu Men to meet them, or even gave them directly to them. It can be said that he was desperate and could save his own life.
However, there was one thing that Liu Zhenzhen found very strange.
"This person has been in Ao Jian Men for many years, he should not give up easily."
Su Zhan did not think there was anything strange about this.
"Since you are a smart person, you should know when to make the best and most appropriate choice. You have to be willing to give it up even if you are reluctant. Besides, it was definitely not the elder's idea that the leader of Aojian Sect promoted the young master of Yunmen to win over the cultivators."
"Think about it, the elder is a think tank. Would he come up with such a bad idea? If it weren't for the leader of Aojian Sect doing this, Wei Yun would not be easily persuaded by me to help us cut off the way for the leader of Aojian Sect to win over other cultivators."
"The elder must have had a disagreement with the leader of Aojian Sect. At this time, the elder naturally had to listen to the leader of Aojian Sect. In this case, he saw clearly that Aojian Sect might have no chance of winning."
"In that case, why stay in Aojian Sect?"
"Helping to destroy Aojian Sect, he still has a glimmer of hope."
"Why not?"
After hearing this, Liu Zhenzhen was immediately impressed by Su Zhan.
