I am the ultimate boss, so what?

Zhu Mian glanced at the sitting Shen Yin. Shen Yin also had a hand in this matter. If the Empire refused to give up, they would naturally continue to provoke the Temple in order to provoke Shen Yin to take action. Then they could take revenge on Shen Yin.

"And if we take action against the Empire, wouldn't that be interfering in the political affairs of the continent? Are you going to violate the ancestral precepts set by our ancestors?"

"Zhu Mian, stop talking about our ancestors all the time. They have been dead for so long, why should we listen to a dead person..." Before Shi Ming could finish his words, he was knocked away.

Shen Yin slowly stood up from his chair, narrowed his eyes, and exuded a dangerous aura, "Shi Ming."

His expression was still kind, but Shi Ming felt cold all over. He wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and dared not speak again.

Qin Lan couldn't help but laugh at him. What a fool he was. It would have been fine if he had questioned the rules of the temple, but he actually spoke ill of the ancestors in front of Brother Shen Yin. What a fool he was.

The ancestor is Brother Shenyin’s master and the person Brother Shenyin respects the most.

No one can say anything bad about our ancestors.

"According to the teachings of our ancestors, we naturally cannot interfere in the political affairs of other countries, but can we just let Brother Rong Jie's matter go like this?" Qin Lan said.

"Although we cannot interfere in political affairs, but excluding the identity of the Lord of the Temple, can't I take revenge on the emperor in my personal name?" Shi Ming gave everyone a new way out.

So what if it's not revenge in the name of the Temple, but simply because of hatred towards the Emperor?

According to the teachings of their ancestors, disciples of the Temple should act according to their hearts, and if they have a grudge, they can seek revenge.

"Gu Yu, Shen Yin, you have spent the longest time with Rong Jie, shouldn't you take action for Rong Jie?"

Originally, Si Lili felt that Shi Ming's previous words made some sense, but when she heard this sentence, she couldn't help laughing.

"What are you laughing at!" Shi Ming looked at her.

Si Lili leaned back in her chair and spread her hands: "No, I just found you funny."

"What?" Shi Ming's face changed.

"After hearing the first half of your sentence, I thought you had a very good relationship with Rong Jie and were going to take action against the empire for him. I didn't expect that you were actually instigating Gu Yu and Shen Yan. It's really funny. You..." Si Lili paused for a moment and revealed a hint of sneer, "Are you scared?"

Even Rong Jie died at the hands of the Empire, and the one who made the loudest noise in the entire Temple was the one who had the least ability to resist the Emperor.

The louder they shouted, the more they acknowledged that the strength of the empire had seriously threatened their status.

"What nonsense are you talking about!" Shi Ming slammed the table and stood up.

Si Lili slammed the table louder than he did and stood up.

Shen Yin curled his lips and waved his sleeves. The round table slowly descended, leaving no obstacle between Si Lili and Shi Ming.

Gu Yu looked at him and thought that he was really not thinking too much of a big deal.

"Why, Master Ming, are you going to challenge me? It just so happens that I also want to test whether I am worthy of the position of the second of the Ten Lords."

Shi Ming choked. He was no match for Si Lili. There was no need for him to compete. He had seen it clearly on the ring that day.

If he bumped into her at this time, he would most likely be beaten to a pulp by Si Lili, and would be bedridden for at least two months.

"Who wants to fight with you...internal fighting is strictly prohibited in the temple." Shi Ming's voice became smaller and smaller.

"Really, Shen Yin?" Si Lili asked Shen Yin beside her.

Shen Yin raised his hand: "Internal fighting is strictly prohibited, but sparring is welcome."

Therefore, if she wanted to fight with Shi Ming, it would be a sparring match.

"Shen Yin, who wants to compete with her? It's boring." Shi Ming said and sat down directly.

The round table reappeared, isolating the few people from each other.

"There is no need to discuss this matter further. Rong Jie's case is defined as a private fight. After he is buried... no one will be allowed to challenge the emperor in the name of the Temple." Gu Yu said.

Qin Lan and Shi Ming were both very angry and dissatisfied.

Zhu Mian and Xuanyuan Wuji's eyes flickered. Gu Yuming said on the surface that they could no longer be enemies with the empire, but every word he said allowed everyone to challenge the empire in their personal capacity.

It seems that he suffered a lot of injustice in the empire.

The death of two of the ten statues seemed to be a harmless matter.

This undoubtedly increased the rumors from the outside world.

The Empire's status is now approaching that of the Temple. It has the strength to kill the Venerable, making it the most powerful country on the continent. Not only that, the Temple doesn't even dare to fart, which is enough to show how powerful the Empire is.

The impact of the rumors went far beyond damaging the reputation of the temple. A large number of spiritualists were attracted to the empire to witness the charm of the empire. After feeling the atmosphere of a powerful country, they decided on the spot to settle down in the imperial capital. As a result, the imperial capital was actually showing a tendency to rival Luoyang City.

"Instead of worrying about the status of the temple, it is better to think about the coming storm of resentment." Gu Yu said with a frown.

"Storm of resentment?" The newly joined Si Lili and Xuanyuan Wuji had no idea what storm of resentment was.

Zhu Mian explained: "You two just arrived, so naturally you don't know."

"The original intention of our ancestors to build the temple was to resist the storm of resentment." Not for status, not for the people's faith, the temple was originally built just for the stability of the entire continent.

This so-called stability does not refer to regime change, which is man-made, but a natural disaster, the so-called storm of resentment.

"When the Ancestral God was here, he fought many battles on the battlefield, which brought all races together and made the world unified and peaceful. However, this also brought a hidden danger, which was the gathering of resentment. The resentment on the battlefield continued to gather, and the gathering resentment of various races caused the races to mutate. The Ancestral God had no choice but to order the God of Death to wipe them out, but the resentment did not dissipate, but gathered in the abyss."

"Later, the God of Death rebelled, and the resentment was rampant without anyone to resolve it. Fortunately, our ancestors stepped forward to exterminate the mutant race, which temporarily alleviated the resentment. Later, the ancestor god and the ancestors passed away with the God of Death. The gods exhausted all their power to seal the resentment in the depths of the abyss. However, the seal has not been perfect in recent years, and the remnant of the resentment has overflowed from the abyss. The temple was created by our ancestors to resolve the storm formed by the overflowing resentment."

"What mutant race?" Si Lili sneered. The so-called mutant race is not the race that did not obey the ancestor god and rebelled. The ancestor god first ordered Ali to exterminate the race, and later Ali defected, and it was Shen Wuai who cleaned up the ancestor god's mess.

Those so-called grievances were probably the remnants of the exterminated races. Those good-for-nothings of the Gods were unable to resolve them, and the God of Death, who was supposed to have completely absorbed and resolved the grievances, had passed away. They had no choice but to seal all the grievances there, but their skills were not good enough, and they would leak out from time to time.

So, this is the truth, and what they said is just a embellished version.

"What's the matter, Si Lili, are you questioning the deeds of our ancestors?" Shi Ming intended to direct his criticism at her.

Si Lili glanced at Shen Yin who didn't react at all and smiled: "How ridiculous! Where did I say anything about ancestors? I was talking about mutant races. I haven't seen them before, so why not be curious?"

"By the way, you are targeting me like this, are you trying to spar with me?"

Shi Ming gritted his teeth and swallowed the anger.

I really don't understand him. He clearly can't beat her, but he keeps finding fault with her.

"Now, these races no longer exist on the continent. Only the human race remains. This is all due to the kindness of the ancestral gods to us." Gu Yu said.

Si Lili secretly curled her lips and said nothing.

"Who said there aren't any? Aren't they resentful beasts?" Shen Yin reminded with a smile.

There is still no reasonable explanation for the origin of the resentful beast. We only know that it is related to the god of death.

But since the appearance of the God of Death, they seem to be much more honest than before.

"Don't talk about anything else, just talk about the storm of resentment."

"The last storm of resentment was a hundred years ago. At that time... I'm sure you all have an impression. That was when you joined the temple." The god's mute words made everyone present shudder.

What's the meaning.

What you mean is that a lot of venerables died in the last storm of resentment, which is why they were able to occupy their current position, right?

Then wouldn’t their lives also be in danger in this storm of resentment?

No wonder they would hold a temple meeting at this time. In addition to filling the so-called venerable positions, it is also to welcome the storm of resentment.

"If you are timid, you can just leave the temple now. The ten great venerables gathered here for the storm of resentment. If you don't participate in the storm of resentment, it is equivalent to giving up the venerables." Gu Yu said.

The position of the Venerable is not linked to the respect of the world or a high status, but it is definitely closely related to the storm of resentment.

Anyone who quits is not worthy of being a temple elder and enjoying the assets and status left by their ancestors.
