Chapter 652: Issue of Concern
Those on the side of the Xie Faction were already prepared for something unusual happening during this meeting. Since nothing had happened yet, they were all waiting patiently. On the other hand, the opposition was not so forewarned and only now that they heard Sages outburst did they realize they were jumping the gun. The Elder that had risen to his feet promptly sat back down while the others that were walking away quickly returned. They tried to cover up their embarrassment by sending annoyed looks in Sages direction.
The Jinxi young master realized his mistake and just as Sage did, he cleared his throat to restore some of his authority and sent a hostile glance as Sage. Then he turned his eyes to glare at the Elder that had stood, You seem quite eager to leave. Is there somewhere else you need to be Elder Wu Gou?
Elder Wu Gous eyes flashed with annoyance at being called out, but he maintained an otherwise calm and placid face. He held up his hands and saluted Jinxi Po, Forgive me, Im getting a little absent minded in my old age. I was just eager to rest after that heated debate earlier.
One of the Xie Elders opened her mouth to hurl an insult, but the Great Elder placed a hand upon her arm and the Elder closed her mouth. After insulting Elder Wu Gou, Jinxi Po seemed much less upset about being called out for his mistake. The debut release of this chapter happened at Ñòv€l-B1n.
Ahh, the ways of the bully. Whenever you feel inadequate, sad, or abused, just take it out on someone else.
Even so, Jinxi Po was not satisfied by just venting upon Elder Wu Gou. He also remembered who had called him out for his oversight and now his attention returned to Lang Sheng. A small sneer crept onto his lips and he made sure to send a jab towards him, Are there any more issues that the illustrious Elders need to bring up? If not, we can move on to hearing from the branch heads.
Is that so? I cant talk about gambling here? What about all the lives that you are using to compete with the Xie Faction? Youre pitting people against each other to make your decisions. How many more lives will be lost due to you inflating the conflict? Wouldnt it be far simpler to just raise crickets and fight them directly? Or is it that you care less about human lives than the lives of crickets? I, for one, dont think a cricket could ever compare to even the lowliest man.
Only now did the Elders in the room realize that Sage was criticizing their tradition of using proxy wars to decide upon difficult issues. He was also directly insulting the Jinxi, the faction that was famous for their crickets. At this moment, even Patriarch Jinxis wife was startled, let alone everyone else in the room. She changed almost instantly from a kind matron to a vicious hellcat. It was like her hackles were raised and her fingers curled into a claw shape. Her large nails stabbed into the arms of her chair like the hardwood was made of warm butter. The Patriarch himself had seemed detached from these proceedings, but at this insult he finally focused his gaze upon Sage. The power suddenly radiated from him just like earlier when hed acted to maintain order.
Jinxi Po was still the only person talking back to him, You dare to insult the Jinxi? Are you tired of living? Youve only been a branch head for a short while and yet youve grown so bold? It seems we may no longer need a Lang Branch after all.
You dont need a Lang Branch? Thats an interesting opinion. I think the Chong Clan no longer needs to be led by a bunch of scared weaklings. What a great Clan, using human lives as game pieces, because theyre too scared of solving their own issues directly.
Jinxi Po was furious and he didnt even bother retorting with words. When he opened his mouth an ear piercing screech was released. The majority of those in the room were not Nascent Souls and their faces scrunched up in pain from the sudden assault. Sound based attacks were very difficult to completely focus and so when the level 63 Jinxi Po released his attack they all suffered from it. On the other hand, the target of the attack was far less affected.
Sage was standing there with a smile still on his face. Once he sensed an attack approaching he already set up a Windscreen. It was intended as a technique for lower level cultivators to avoid eavesdropping, and something from the How to be a Little Birdy manual. It created a double layered bubble of Qi, making a sort of vacuum zone that stopped sound transferral. It wasnt intended to be used as a defense against sound based techniques, but that didnt mean it was worthless. Especially since Sage had already known hed face the Jinxi long ago.
The look of confusion on Jinxi Pos face was priceless. Especially when combined with the piercing gaze of Patriarch Jinxi and the look of surprise on Great Elder Xies face. She knew he was up to something, but not something this bold!
