Immortal Road.

"Haha, Elder Hui Miao is very skilled, and I was forced to do this. Please don't bear with me if I have offended you. I apologize here."

Lin Shan was also very slippery. He turned around, clasped his fists, and sincerely apologized to Elder Hui Miao who was chained to the pillar.

Elder Hui Miao was almost angry to death!
You won't untie me or let me down, and this is how you apologize to me?

I have never seen such a thick-skinned person, please put me down.
Liang Maizhu was also paused. He didn't expect that the ball was kicked back again.

According to his pace, when talking about this topic, if Lin Shan is sensible, if he still wants to continue cooperating with Guigu Holy Land and maintain the situation without tearing each other apart, he should take the initiative to release Elder Hui Miao.

In this way, the Guigu Holy Land regained its face. He didn't even need to mention anything when he arrived, and the other party would just let him go. This was the effect he wanted to achieve.

But who knows,
This Xun Gu Sect Leader pretended to be deaf and dumb and didn't even let me go for such a long time. Should I say that he has no tact, or does he really want to fight me to the end?

Liang Maizhu was uncertain, stroked his beard and said with a smile:

"No need to be so polite. My junior sister has been spoiled by her teacher since she was a child. She has never suffered any loss. Today, Master Lin will teach her a good lesson. She will only lose face by being tied up, and she will not lose her life because of recklessness in the future. What do you think?"

Lin Shan also started laughing.

"Hahahaha, then in this case, Lin has done a great thing! It's equivalent to saving Elder Hui Miao's life in advance. It's really wonderful, and there is no greater good than this~"

"???"

The two of them were fighting secretly, which made Elder Hui Miao next to them very angry!
You beat me up, tied me up and hung me up, and you still have the nerve to say you saved my life???
I have never seen such a shameless person! !

To be honest, Master Liang was also having a headache. Master Lin kept pretending to be stupid and playing Tai Chi with him, which made him very worried.

If the soft approach doesn’t work, I have to change my thinking.

"But to be honest, although my junior sister is not very capable, she has a master who dotes on her and treats her like a jewel in his palm. She is so precious! If he knew that she was bullied outside, he might really do something unpredictable."

Lin Shan had no choice but to answer at this time, and asked with feigned curiosity:

"Oh? Then I wonder which great master is Elder Hui Miao's master?"

"Well, I can't say she is a Yuanshen, but she is also a famous master of my Bingzhen School. Have you ever heard of the name of the Iron-Blooded Wolf Mother?"

Iron-blooded wolf mother?

When he heard that he was not a cultivator in the Yuanshen stage, but just a person with great supernatural powers, Lin Shan put down his heart and thought to himself, "I was almost scared!"
As a person with great supernatural powers, why are you pretending to be so powerful?
He immediately replied with a confused look on his face.

"never heard of that."

"."

Master Liang was speechless for a moment. There was really no point in chatting today.

Before coming up, I thought Lin Shan was a reckless young man who attacked Elder Hui Miao because of a momentary impulse, so I thought I could use some means to resolve the situation.

But who knew that this kid was as cunning as a fox. He kept hesitating with me for a long time and was unwilling to give in.

To put it bluntly, it means "not knowing the tact"!
"It's just a little cleverness, but it's used in the wrong place."

Master Liang thought to himself and shook his head slightly.

I gave him a chance, but he didn't appreciate it at all, especially he didn't understand his own strength and status.

It is no wonder that people who have never been to the holy land always look at the world from a narrow perspective. They do not know how powerful the holy land is and think that they can speak with their heads held high just because they are important figures in the outside world.

In fact, you are nothing!
It seems that the agreement made when recruiting him, the 80-20 split, was too generous, making this Xun Gu Sect leader unable to tell the directions.

Just
"Master Lin, please forgive me when you can. I am angry now. Can you please let my sister go?"

He finally spoke, and had no choice but to say these words.

But what he didn't expect was that Lin Shan raised his eyebrows, and the corners of his mouth slightly curled up as he asked him back.

"Do you know why I tied her up?"

"."

Of course, Master Liang knew that it was impossible for him to come up without doing any investigation. It was precisely because he knew the cause and process of the incident and knew that his side was completely in the wrong that he could come up and talk in such a nice way.

Otherwise, I would have flipped the table long ago!
But now I have personally asked for your release, and you still won't let me go. This is really a lack of respect for me.

He suppressed his impatience and pretended not to know even though he knew.

"But what kind of quarrel was this? Alas, it's just a trivial matter, why did it come to this, why did it come to this?"

Lin Shan seemed not to understand the hint in his words, and simply ordered his men to bring up the two jars.

Bang!
"This is."

"One hundred and twenty kilograms of ice jade essence liquid."

Lin Shan pointed at Elder Hui Miao without showing any mercy.

"She only gave me 80 kilograms of Xun Gu Sect, but took 120 kilograms for herself. I want to ask, why did she get more than the entire Xun Gu Sect?"

Liang Maizhu took a deep breath.

What was supposed to come finally came!
When he first obtained the Ice Jade Essence down there, he actually strongly advocated distributing it according to the original proportions, but the other four major sects disagreed.

Because there are only five major sects in Guigu Holy Land. If the Xun Gu Sect alone accounts for 20%, then the remaining 80% will be divided among the five major sects, which means that the share of each sect is less than 20%!
All the branches of our holy land have been fighting hard on the front lines, and have been battling with the main forces of other holy lands for a month, but in the end our share is not as good as that of the Xun Gu Sect who are fishing in the dark river layer above?
From the perspective of the top leaders of the various factions in the Holy Land, do you think they would object?
They have all experienced the first two rounds of spiritual tides. To be honest, the sects and schools recruited from the outside world are nothing more than dogs under their holy land, used as cannon fodder!
You, a dog, eat more than our master. Is this fair?
Precisely because of the uneven distribution of benefits and the difficulty in satisfying everyone, the leader of the Liang sect was forced to break his promise and reduce the share of the Xun Gu sect. He took 2600 kilograms of the 3,000 kilograms and distributed another 400 kilograms to each sect.

In the end, it was chopped into 200 kilograms and sent up. Even with this small amount, many of the higher-ups in the holy land were dissatisfied, thinking it was a huge waste and a disgrace to nature.

What they never expected was that Elder Hui Miao actually embezzled 120 kilograms by himself!

It is understandable to take kickbacks, as everyone is experienced in the ways of the world, but you are going too far.

Now, the two sides are in such a mess, and the high-level officials of the holy land below are all waiting to see the Liang vein master and his sister make a fool of themselves. If this matter is not handled well, their prestige will probably be greatly reduced.

After all, it was you who recruited the Xun Gu Sect in the first place, but in the end you guys broke up with them, which brought more trouble to the Holy Land. We are blocked from both ends, let’s see what you can do!
There was silence for a long time.

The atmosphere became increasingly depressing, and both camps looked tense, realizing that the most critical moment was approaching.

The Xun Gu Sect has revealed its cards. It now depends on whether the Guigu Holy Land will hold out to the end or admit its mistake!
"Master Lin, this matter..."

I didn't expect that after careful consideration, Master Liang chose to avoid talking about the facts!

"It is true that Junior Sister Hui Miao was at fault first, but you forcibly searched her body and took out all her belongings and turned them over! Not only was this a slap in her face, but it was also a slap in the face of the Ghost Valley Holy Land. Do you know what this means?"

"I don't know. I'm too lazy to guess. Should I just let her lie on me and suck my blood? Can't I do anything about her?"

Lin Shan's tone suddenly turned cold!

The two looked at each other sharply, and there was a hint of brewing fire.

"I know your sect has suffered losses, but this is not the right way to deal with the problem. Why didn't you send someone down to talk to me first? Instead of rashly attacking my junior sister?" "Go down to talk to you? Ask your junior sister if she agrees to let me send someone?"

Although Elder Hui Miao, who was tied up on the side, looked crazy, he was actually very smart. At this moment, he knew that his senior brother was favoring him, so he must seize the opportunity and spoke out immediately.

"Why didn't I agree? I had a calm discussion with you at the time. You could have sent someone to report to Senior Brother later when you were not busy. It was you who couldn't wait and took action first. Are you going to blame us???"

With divine assistance, Lord Liang immediately launched a flank attack and turned to ask the people from Guigu Holy Land behind him.

"Did you hear it at the time? Is that really the case?"

Of course, these people were on their side and nodded in agreement.

"It is true, absolutely true!"

"Senior Sister Hui Miao said that we can ask Sect Leader Lin to send people down, but we have to wait until the fighting down there is not too busy. The original intention was not to cause trouble to the overall situation. It was Sect Leader Lin who couldn't help but take action first!"

"Yes, yes, what's the matter? Why can't we communicate peacefully? Why do we have to fight? Master Lin is too violent."

"I think everyone in the Xun Gu sect has a hot temper. Such recklessness will sooner or later cause a disaster."

Well, these people are going to add fuel to the fire, and their words are starting to extend in all directions!

Everyone in the Xun Gu Sect was so angry that the blood was boiling. How could they tolerate this?

Respond one by one immediately!

"Bullshit, it's obviously you who made the mistake first, how can you still confuse right and wrong and blame us?"

"Wait until the war is over? The spiritual tide outbreak lasted so long, how could the war not be busy? Waiting until the end of time will be a long time!"

"You mean, I'll come after you after the spiritual tide is over? Let us stay like this and watch this woman take kickbacks while we can't do anything about her?"

"If you want to talk about shamelessness, it's you, Guigu Holy Land, who are shameless. You can even turn black into white. You still want to win Lingchao with this? Go eat your ass!"

Everyone in Guigu Holy Land was scolded so badly that they were unable to refute for a while.

They are all elites who grew up in the Holy Land. How can they be better at scolding than the unconventional cultivators from the Xun Gu Sect?

The one who cursed the most harshly was the guy with a deer head. He shook his head and spit out saliva, making the group of people feel disgusted.

Seeing that it was about to turn into a quarrel, Master Liang shouted:
"enough!!!"

There was a moment of silence on the field, and both sides were temporarily subdued.

He looked at Lin Shan who was sitting still opposite him. There was no sign of compromise on his face, and it was obvious that he was determined to get to the bottom of the matter.

"Master Lin, this is the early stage of the spiritual tide outbreak. Are you sure you want to break up with my Guigu Holy Land? Don't forget the purpose of your joining our camp this time. If you really disband now, you will get nothing in the future. You have to think clearly!"

"Of course I have thought about it. After all, Guigu Holy Land is not the only holy land under the Lei Bo Sea."

"you"

Liang Maizhu gritted his teeth and clenched his hands.

"Are you threatening me?"

"No, I am just reminding you."

Lin Shan stood up, his aura as thick as a mountain, unrestrained and uninhibited, demonstrating his determination, and the confidence of the Xun Gu Sect members behind him increased greatly.

Seeing such cohesion, Master Liang was finally moved!

He was struggling violently in his heart, weighing the pros and cons again and again, knowing that his side was in the wrong in this matter. If he really forced the Xun Gu Sect to rebel today, not only would his side lose a great helper, it would also push them to other sides, and make people from other holy places laugh their heads off!
And I will become a laughing stock.

After the two sides argued with each other, finally Master Liang retreated.

"Okay, I hereby solemnly apologize. This matter is Junior Sister Hui Miao's fault. The Ice Jade Essence is now in your hands. Can you let her go?"

"and many more."

Lin Shan is not so easily fooled.

"The total amount found is only about 200 kilograms. Your Highness has been searching down there for a month. Are you sure this is all?"

Geek!

Master Liang's heart was pounding. Could it be that he knew some inside story?
Or,
Are you cheating me?
"Of course! Our holy land army has been fighting in the Jade Shattering Cold Pond for a whole month, and our opponents are all elites from other holy lands. Master Lin, you don't think that these ice jade essences are picked up for nothing, right?"

"Of course not, but are you sure you don't need to pay me back?"

Faced with Lin Shan's repeated questioning, everyone in Guigu Holy Land was very nervous.

Master Liang knew that he absolutely could not acknowledge this. Once he acknowledged it, he would be doomed to break it, because the rest of the ice jade essence had been divided up by the five great meridians. He couldn't possibly order the five meridians to spit it out and give it back to Lin Shan, an outsider, right?

So does he still want to stay in Guigu Holy Land?
I can only sigh and shake my head:
"Master Lin, these are indeed all we have. There is no more. Please stop here."

Seeing that the other party had surrendered, Lin Shan didn't want to force him too much, or even betray the insider Xiong Shanshangren, so he simply put forward some conditions.

"I will not pursue the question of how much we have gained this month, but starting from next month, I, the Xun Gu Sect, will send someone to supervise. As a part of mutual benefit and trust between allies, this request is not too much, right?"

Master Liang closed his eyes, knowing that he had been forced into a corner. No matter how he attacked, he had thought of how to deal with it, but he still could not defeat Master Xun Gu and lost the initiative step by step.

After thinking about the upcoming battlefield situation and the combined pressure from Haoran Holy Land and Chunqiu Jianmen, the overall situation was deteriorating. In order to maintain stability, he could only nod in agreement.

"Okay, that's as it should be."

Then he glanced at the side and saw that Elder Hui Miao was like a quail at this moment, curled up into a ball with his head covering his face. It was obvious that he didn't dare to shout anymore.

"Then my junior sister, can you let me go now?"

Lin Shan raised his hand decisively.

"Let go!"

The disciples of Xun Gu Sect stepped forward to untie the ropes, and Elder Hui Miao was finally rescued. His legs went limp and he knelt on the ground on the spot, his true energy being drained away by the soul-sucking rope until not a drop of it was left.

The torture is finally over!
"Dang Dang Dang~"

The three magic storage tools were thrown in front of her like garbage. They had been turned upside down by the people from Xun Gu Sect a long time ago. Now they took away the best treasures and returned them to her in a discarded state.

She felt ashamed when she thought of those people who unscrupulously rummaged through the wealth she had accumulated over the years, and even took out her personal collection one by one to comment on it!
It's like throwing your face to the ground and stomping on it. How is this different from rape?
She felt extremely remorseful, but also full of resentment.

Xun Gujiao, you are going too far!

Wait for me later (End of this chapter)
