84: The rhythm of never-ending

“The Internal Affairs Hall and the War Affairs Hall will establish exclusive investigation offices, with no upper limit?”

Chu Tian’s indifferent and calm voice echoed on the silent Jitian Peak, and the chilling murderous aura contained within it made everyone present feel a coldness rush from their spine straight to the back of their heads.

Chu Tian’s enormous appetite startled everyone.

The Internal Affairs Hall has been managed by the Ye Family for millions of years and is a core interest of the Ye Family, with an annual flow of thousands of trillions of Spirit Stones, containing immense profits.

The Internal Affairs Hall Master is basically as important as the Hall Master of the Law Enforcement Hall is to the Chu Family.

The War Affairs Hall, moreover, is the Saint Heaven Sect’s external violent department, with 200,000 elite Core Disciples, and countless powerful cultivators among them. In recent decades, as the Saint Heaven Sect greatly expanded its influence and territory, rising to become the strongest Sect on the Continent, the War Affairs Hall contributed immensely to this, becoming one of the most important halls in the Sect, receiving massive resource supplies and an enormous amount of Spirit Stones, which is one of Ye Tianxiong’s fundamental bases of authority.

In the past, successive War Affairs Hall Masters were generally chosen from among the top cultivators within the Sect, unlike the Internal Affairs Hall and the Law Enforcement Hall, which were completely controlled by a single large Family. However, in recent years, with the support of Chu Tian King, Ye Tianxiong concurrently served as the War Affairs Hall Master, directly overseeing the annexation of several large Sects and even the destruction of several large Demonic Sects.

This is also one of Ye Tianxiong’s most significant achievements in recent years.

The Ye Family’s influence and control over the War Affairs Hall also grew day by day, with Ye Family members controlling many important positions within it, almost becoming another hall completely controlled by the Ye Family.

Chu Tian’s proposal was practically to take away all of Ye Tianxiong’s achievements and results of the past few decades, and also to strip away the Internal Affairs Hall, one of the Ye Family’s most core interests.

“You beast, you scoundrel!” The furious low roar of a high-ranking Ye Family member echoed.

Even many high-ranking Ye Family members understood that the Ye Family would have to bleed heavily this time, but they never expected Chu Tian’s appetite to be so enormous.

This was no longer just bleeding; it was about spitting out all their internal organs.

The eyes of some high-ranking Ye Family members turned slightly cold, and they even wanted to overturn the table.

At this moment, many Grand Elder and high-ranking officials turned their gaze towards the Ye Family members and Ye Tianxiong, their eyes filled with coldness and warning.

If the Ye Family was unwilling to maintain decorum, then everyone would have to help the Ye Family maintain decorum.

The series of events targeting the Chu Family during this period actually made many people realize that Ye Tianxiong’s ambition had inflated too much, and he needed to be restrained.

So many things, yet done so carelessly and undignifiedly, turning an otherwise stable overall situation into a mess.

Therefore, although Chu Tian’s appetite was large, it was not beyond expectation.

These matters had too negative an impact; if the Ye Family was not made to pay a price, it would be impossible to account to the entire Sect, and even more impossible to appease the Chu Family’s anger.

Ye Tianxiong’s face immediately became gloomy, his clenched fists constantly dripping blood, and the gaps between his fingers turned crimson.

But at this moment, Ye Hongchen and several other Ye Family Grand Elder, with grim faces, stepped forward to calm him down, stating that now was not the time to erupt.

Ye Feng Cultivated the Supreme Yin Yang Art and escaped with the Sect Master’s token, which not only completely ignited the Chu Family but also provoked public outrage.

At such a time, as long as Ye Tianxiong’s position as Sect Master could be kept from wavering, it would be a victory.

“My nephew is right. The Sect’s situation is so chaotic precisely because we’ve taken too big a step in recent years, pulling a muscle, allowing some people and Families to become overly inflated.”

Chu Tianyun’s eyes were cold and murderous, and the Chenxing White Tiger Blade in his hand flowed with fierce Saber Qi. He said coldly, “It is time to hold another high-level and Elder Council meeting to discuss the restructuring of the Sect’spattern and, after stabilizing the situation, to re-discuss where the Saint Heaven Sect should go next.”

“Second Brother, Little Tian, what do you two think?”

Chu Tianyun expressed his support and turned to look at Chu Tianxing and Chu Tian.

“Alright.”

Chu Tianxing was a refined middle-aged man with a gentle smile. He nodded and said, “Indeed, an Elder Council meeting should be convened. Grand Elder, high-ranking personnel, and current Elder should all be present. This is not only to give an explanation to our Chu Family but also to the entire Sect.”

“Just the high-ranking officials are not enough.” At this moment, Chu Tian shook his head and said, “We should summon back the Sect’s middle management, the prefects of various counties, the heads of various hall branches, etc., to inform them of the events and discuss them together.”

The faces of the high-ranking Ye Family members collectively darkened, their bodies trembling slightly with anger. This little beast, Chu Tian, was practically using these events to thoroughly blacken Ye Tianxiong and utterly destroy the Ye Family.

Many high-ranking officials and Grand Elder also looked solemn, secretly analyzing in their minds, and finally came to a surprising conclusion.

Chu Tian had no intention of reconciling with the Ye Family at all; he was aiming for a fight to the death.

If only the high-ranking officials knew, it would still be a small-scale matter, and the impact could be controlled. Everyone could negotiate, let the Ye Family bleed a little, and the matter would pass.

But if the middle management were also summoned back, the impact of the matter would inevitably expand completely, and even the entire Hengtian Continent would know.

The Ye Family’s reputation would truly become utterly foul.

Ye Tianxiong’s authority as Sect Master would also plummet completely.

After all, his own son Cultivated a Demonic Technique and defected from the Sect. When this news spread, it was clearly telling the outside world that a major change had occurred within the Saint Heaven Sect, and Ye Tianxiong, the Sect Master, could no longer suppress the situation.

The thing everyone feared most had finally arrived!

After Chu Tian King went into seclusion and handed over power, the Chu Family’s direction indeed changed, and it happened so quickly.

From fully cooperating and maintaining stability to relentlessly attacking the Ye Family and opposing Ye Tianxiong, the Sect Master.

“They brought it upon themselves!”

“What a sin!” A Grand Elder sighed, coldly swept a glance at Ye Tianxiong and the Ye Family members, and turned to fly towards Elder Peak.

“I, this old man, agree to all of the Little Holy Son’s proposals.”

“The Sect has become such a mess; it’s time to rectify it.”

“I also agree to recall the Sect’s many middle-level personnel.”

“Agreed!”

“Let the Law Enforcement Hall issue a notice for the middle-level personnel to immediately rush back to the Sect. After informing them, a meeting will be held tonight in the Elder Hall.”

“Agreed.”

“The direct eldest son of the dignified Ye Family causing such a thing has too negative an impact. It must be rectified and announced throughout the Sect as a warning.”

…

Many Grand Elder and high-ranking Sect officials expressed their solemn agreement before turning to leave Jitian Peak to prepare for the large meeting at Elder Peak tonight.

Everyone understood.

The Sect had truly changed.

The wind had completely shifted.

The past situation, where the Sect was united and its power directed outwards, with the Chu Family sacrificing its own interests and Chu Tian King’s cooperation, would completely become a thing of the past.

“Little Tian, Second Brother, then I’ll take our people to make arrangements, and also send people to pursue that beast, Ye Feng.”

Chu Tianyun’s eyes still had bloodshot veins. He put away the Chenxing White Tiger Blade and said coldly to Ye Tianxiong, “When I catch him, I’ll make him wish he were dead.”

Chu Tianyun was decisive and was about to salute when Chu Tianxing called out to him, “Third Brother, tonight’s Elder Council meeting will be presided over by you in place of Big Brother.”

Chu Tianyun frowned and said, “Second Brother, Big Brother said that you are to act as Deputy Sect Leader and Chu Family Head. There’s a pile of things coming up; you can’t be absent…”

Chu Tianxing waved his hand and said, “You and Big Brother know me well. I’m good at arranging flowers, planting grass, and researching unorthodox methods. But this kind of direct confrontation, a tense and hostile situation, doesn’t suit me.

Otherwise, Big Brother wouldn’t have made you concurrently serve as the Family Grand Elder to assist me.

It’s decided then. Tonight’s Elder Council meeting, you just follow Little Tian’s words. I think Little Tian’s plan is excellent.

I’ll take Little Tian and Cloud Garment back first.”

With that, without waiting for Chu Tianyun to speak, Chu Tianxing smiled faintly, waved his large sleeve, and flew into the air with Chu Tian and Chu Yunshang.

“Little Tian, are you a little disappointed in Second Uncle?”

Flying in the air, Chu Tianxing suddenly smiled slightly and patted Chu Tian’s shoulder: “This Elder Council meeting is so crucial, deciding the future structure of the Sect, almost our Family’s desperate battle to turn the tables, and your father handed over all authority to Second Uncle, yet Second Uncle isn’t participating.”
