The sect is full of evildoers, but I am the eldest brother.

The atmosphere suddenly became quiet.

Just when Hai Nianxiang was thinking about saying something to ease the tense atmosphere.

Grandma Hai has already given a warning:

"Hai Zong, we are discussing serious matters now. I warn you not to act recklessly!"

This great sea creature was named Hai Zong, and he had decent aptitude. When he was young, he accidentally entered the immortal Dongting Lake, and was enlightened by the immortal in the painting. Relying on the accumulation of massive resources, he practiced for more than a hundred years and barely ascended to the other side, creating the Yinji Heaven Realm.

But no matter what.

Being able to ascend to the other shore and become a person with great supernatural powers is already better than millions of people in the world.

Anyone who can achieve this state is one in a million!

Although Hai Zong had never done anything truly meaningful for the Sea Clan, the mere presence of a powerful master of the Other Shore Realm like him had intimidated countless villains who secretly coveted the Sea Clan.

It is not known whether Haizong will be the first to escape before the danger comes, but his presence can save the sea clan a lot of unnecessary trouble.

Although the sea clan has more than just Hai Zong, a powerful master, he is the most arrogant one, looking down on everyone and not taking anyone seriously!

"If I had messed around, I wouldn't have kept this kid until now."

Hai Zong snorted coldly and said sarcastically, "Even if it's sent by heaven, you can still defy it, but if it's sent by oneself, you can't survive it!"

The moment he learned that this mortal Gu Junming was the culprit who caused Beixuan to be submerged in the sea.

The others looked at him with more or less hostility in their eyes.

Just like the crab man when he first met Gu Junming.

But Mr. Crab, Mrs. Sea and others obviously knew something about the inside story. Even though they were angry, they would not take it too seriously.

"Have I ever offended you in the past?"

Gu Junming was a little puzzled, but after thinking about it carefully, it seemed that this possibility was not impossible.

This sea cultivator was capable of achieving great supernatural powers and also looked young. In the past, when he and Ye Yongzhen were "messengers of justice" and plundered geniuses everywhere, he might have offended the other party.

If not, then this sea creature is speaking out for those monks who died under the sea and specifically denouncing him. Otherwise... it can't be that he simply dislikes him, right?

But it is true!

A great master who has reached the other shore realm has already been dissatisfied after being ordered around by a junior once.

The key point is that those younger generations who are stronger than Hai Zong are targeting him just for a mere mortal.

This is the point that Hai Zong cannot accept the most!

But now, after learning about Gu Junming's true identity, Hai Zong not only showed no remorse,

Instead, he became even more annoyed.

It was this young man who came from behind and caused Beixuan to be submerged by the sea. It was also this boy who caused the offerings he received to become less and less every year.

If it weren't for this kid, he might have made a breakthrough by now! It's all because of this kid!

As for those creatures buried at the bottom of the sea...

What does it have to do with him?

It wasn't his fault!

"You haven't offended me."

Hai Zong said hypocritically, "But the crimes you have committed are abhorrent to both humans and gods, and cannot be tolerated by heaven and earth!"

His righteous attitude received support from many people around him.

Gu Junming had nothing to say about this.

What is done is done.

That's why he's here.

"So I stepped up and tried my best to make amends."

Gu Junming has never been someone who shirks responsibility. He has always been like this. Poverty and humbleness cannot change him, and power and might cannot bend him.

I am alone anyway, and death is just an early relief, nothing big.

"So where have you been for the past ten years?"

Hai Zong is unyielding:

"You've been hiding for ten years. Maybe you feel guilty and have come back in disgrace? Oh, you've only just appeared now. Don't you think it's too late?"

"Even if he is wrong, does that mean you are right?"

Grandma Hai found the right opportunity to attack:

"Hai Zong! I want to ask you, where were you when the sea monsters invaded ten years ago?"

"Of course, I'm going to rescue people."

Haizong replied expressionlessly.

Unexpectedly.

Grandma Hai didn't buy it at all and exposed Hai Zong's lies in front of everyone: "You're lying! Don't think I don't know that in order to avoid the sea monster, you moved to the Central Plains as early as when you were discussing countermeasures, and didn't come back until it was over!"

"If the Sea Clan wasn't severely weakened and you weren't a deterrent, I would have already made your shameful deeds public and expelled you from the Sea Clan!"

"The innocent are innocent themselves; if you want to accuse someone, you can always find a pretext."

Hai Zong said calmly, "You have a mouth on your body, so why can't you say whatever you want?"

"But if you want to expel me from the sea tribe... just by you?"

The tribute Hai Zong received every year was twice as much as that of others, but at their level, it was difficult to make further progress by simply accumulating resources.

Therefore, no one else said much.

After all, it is better to have something than nothing. However, no matter how much you get, it is not as good as a moment of enlightenment in your spare time.

Only Hai Zong is greedy.

It can be more, but absolutely not less! Otherwise, he will curse and threaten you.

Human nature is greedy.

The other great magical powers of the sea clan are all like this, but their degree of greed is far less than that of Hai Zong.

Or...

They have something else they want...

"You think I can't do it?"

Grandma Hai's expression looked a little unfriendly.

Gu Junming waved his hand, signaling Grandma Hai to leave.

"It's indeed a little too late to show up now, but you're wrong about one thing."

"I...never thought of escaping."

"Why are you wasting your time talking to him?"

Grandma Hai scoffed, "People like this don't deserve the support of the sea people! Coward!"

"Hey! Grandma Hai, it's not right for you to say that."

In order to curry favor with Hai Zong, some sharp-eyed people stood up and refuted, "You also said that you went to the Central Plains before Master Hai Zong really discussed countermeasures. Who knew that danger would suddenly come?"

"And Lord Haizong also said that he went to rescue people. Does that mean that the people of the Sea Clan who were abducted to the Central Plains to mine are no longer human beings?"

The man said glibly, "Afterwards, Lord Haizong also returned. If Lord Haizong didn't care about the safety of the sea people, why would he come back?"

"Isn't it good to be free and easy alone?"

"That's because he's greedy!"

Grandma Hai shouted, "He can't let go of the resources offered by the sea tribe!"

"When you reach the level of Lord Haizong, wouldn't you be able to find what you need yourself?"

Another person stood up and said, "There's no benefit at all. If I were a master, I would have left the Sea Clan long ago! Otherwise, I'd come back and be slandered by villains and have my reputation ruined!"

"What did you say!"

Grandma Hai was immediately furious. "While I was contributing to the Sea Clan, you still didn't know how to hide in the corner and try to smooth things over. Stop embarrassing yourself here!"

"I didn't say anything about you, why are you so excited?"
