Chapter 896 Closed Door
Chu Zhiyuan said: "The emperor has spoken, but the two sects don't listen?"

He felt that there was no need to go to such lengths and even ask the eldest prince to mediate personally.

As long as the emperor gives the order, the two sects will naturally stop. They cannot disobey the emperor.

"Hey." Li Cunren shook his head and laughed: "Sister-in-law, it seems that you don't understand the four major sects. ...By the way, in Yujing, when the emperor speaks, do the four major sects obey his orders?"

"That's about right." Chu Zhiyuan hesitated.

The original owner didn't really know much about the four major sects. He had only had contact with the Xuanyin Palace, and had little contact with the other three sects.

Therefore, he did not have a deep understanding of the relationship between the four major clans and the imperial court.

Because they have their own caves and are not dependent on the imperial court, the four major sects are relatively independent.

"It won't work here." Li Cunren shook his head: "The four major sects have higher status."

"The emperor has spoken, but they don't listen?" Chu Zhiyuan was surprised.

Li Cunren said: "There are also people who pretend to obey but actually disobey. If they don't agree with it, they won't listen much. If it doesn't involve major events, the emperor can't blame them."

Chu Zhiyuan nodded slowly.

The queens are all the young masters of Yu Kunlun Palace, which shows how deep the entanglement between the four major sects and the royal family is.

You are in me and I am in you, so it is difficult to punish the four major sects because there will be too many obstacles.

Li Cunren said: "So we need to go there in person to mediate and not let them shirk their responsibilities."

"Big brother is enough." Chu Zhiyuan said.

Li Cunren shook his head: "My words now don't carry enough weight, I need your help, brother-in-law."

"I—?" Chu Zhiyuan said with a smile: "Brother's words don't carry enough weight, and I am even more insignificant."

"Don't forget who you represent." said Li Cunren.

Chu Zhiyuan suddenly realized and said with a smile: "Madam, is your reputation so high now?"

"Having resisted the first wave of assassinations from the demons and monsters means that we will hardly die again, and we will be number one in the world in the future."

"I see."

Chu Zhiyuan nodded.

The bloodline of the Phoenix will never perish and is destined to be number one in the world.

It seems that the deterrent power of this number one in the world is strong enough, even stronger than the future emperor.

"Brother-in-law, shall we go?"

"Leaving now?"

"If it's tomorrow, who knows if we'll fight again today? If someone dies, it will be a big trouble."

"...Okay." Chu Zhiyuan hesitated for a moment and agreed.

He will support Li Cunren on behalf of Li Miaotan, which makes him feel very novel.

It turns out that I am now hugging such a thick thigh.

It is even comparable to the emperor's thigh.

Chaofeng Villa
Chu Zhiyuan and Li Cunren stood side by side in front of the mansion, looking at the majestic gate tower.

The gate tower of this villa has three levels, like three flying eagles stacked on top of each other, ready to soar into the sky at any time.

Four venerables stood behind Li Cunren.

There was also a eunuch following along, quietly and easily overlooked.

Chu Zhiyuan looked at Li Cunren, then at the villa with its gates tightly closed.

Although Li Cunren had told him the attitudes of the four major sects, which had prepared him, the scene before him was still beyond his imagination.

He pretended not to see it and didn't know about it, and closed the door tightly to refuse to welcome me.

This attitude really shocked him.

Li Cunren looked at his astonishment and smiled bitterly: "I expected it a long time ago."

Chu Zhiyuan shook his head.

Neither Fu Zheng nor Li Yuzhen came over. Fu Zheng was not allowed to come over to avoid being caught in the middle and being embarrassed.

Chu Zhiyuan pursed his lips.

The eunuch behind him was an old man with white beard and beard. He stepped forward and rang the door knocker.

“Dang…dang…dang…dang”

On the quiet street, the sound of the door knocker can be heard clearly and can be heard from far away.

But after the doorbell rang, there was no movement in the house, as if no one was there.

Chu Zhiyuan frowned and said, "Isn't this a bit too much?"

This would be a rejection of both the eldest prince and myself.

This was a direct way of not giving them face. It was simple and crude, and really not a method that Da Zong would use. Li Cunren snorted, "Go on. I don't believe they won't open the door!"

"Dangdangdangdang..."

The eunuch continued to knock on the door.

The knock on the door continued to ring, echoing far away in the twilight.

Chu Zhiyuan's expression became uglier.

Li Cunren, however, remained calm and did not look angry at all.

Obviously, he was more prepared and expected that the Chaofeng Sword Sect would do this.

Chu Zhiyuan turned his head and said, "Brother, just go in?"

"Don't." Li Cunren waved his hand: "We are here to mediate."

If you really force your way in, that wouldn't be mediation, that would be finding fault.

Chu Zhiyuan snorted: "Where is the dignity of the royal family?!"

"Brother-in-law, our royal family does not talk about dignity in front of the four major clans."

Chu Zhiyuan snorted, "Brother, this is the result of indulgence, right?"

Li Cunren shook his head helplessly: "There is no way, it has been like this for generations, it is difficult to change it."

Chu Zhiyuan said in a deep voice: "Then I'll do it!"

Li Cunren said, "Son-in-law, why do you have to be the bad guy? Don't be anxious, be patient."

Chu Zhiyuan looked indignant and shook his head repeatedly.

Li Cunren waited calmly.

After knocking dozens of times, almost a hundred times, footsteps were finally heard.

Then the door was opened and an old man walked out.

He looked at Chu Zhiyuan and the others blankly, then at Li Cunren, and said puzzledly: "I am deaf, I wonder who you are...?"

Li Cunren asked gently, "Old man, where is your dean?"

He could see that this frail old man had profound cultivation and was close to becoming a Venerable.

Obviously he can't be deaf, he is just pretending to be deaf.

There is no need to expose a person who pretends to be deaf.

"Dean? The dean is in seclusion." The old man said with a smile: "How about you come back another day? The dean will not come out for ten days or half a month."

Chu Zhiyuan said unhappily: "Alright, stop acting, let your dean come out and talk properly."

The old man smiled and said, "My dear sir, the academy master is indeed in seclusion."

"Who is the person in charge?" Chu Zhiyuan asked.

In mediation, one person usually plays the good cop and the other plays the bad cop.

I have to sing the role of the pretty boy myself, I can’t let Li Cunren do it.

From the moment they arrived outside the Chaofeng outer courtyard, they had already started playing the roles of the good guy and the bad guy.

"The person in charge is the deputy dean, but he has gone out and has not returned yet."

Chu Zhiyuan pressed on: "Then who else can make the decision besides the deputy dean?"

"Those are the four altar masters, but they are practicing and should not be disturbed."

Chu Zhiyuan said coldly: "The four altar masters are practicing and cannot be disturbed?"

"Please forgive me, my dear friends." The old man said with a smile, "How about we come back another day?"

Chu Zhiyuan said coldly: "So, if there is an invasion by foreign enemies now, there is no one to take charge?"

"The four altar masters can only stop forcibly. Now..."

"That's not necessary," Li Cunren said with a smile, "Where is Miss Lu Qingyuan?"

"Miss Lu is just beginning her evening lessons." The old man said with a smile, "It is not appropriate to disturb her."

"It seems that being soft is useless," Chu Zhiyuan shook his head repeatedly, his face suddenly darkened, and he said slowly: "Master Zhuang, please come out and meet me!"

His voice came out slowly, spreading throughout the entire academy and reaching the ears of every academy disciple, as if he was speaking into their ears.

His super sense had already seen Chaofeng Villa clearly. He saw that they were practicing martial arts and ignored the knocking on the door outside.

Everyone in Chaofeng Villa has their own responsibilities. If someone knocks on the door, someone will go to answer it, so they don't need to worry about it.

They also believed they could handle it, so they ignored the trivial matter.

Chu Zhiyuan's words suddenly reached their ears, making them feel awe-inspiring.

Li Cunren said, "If the manor master doesn't come out, we will really have to force our way in. It will be embarrassing for both of us."
