A thousand-year-old fox!

"Everyone, chaos has erupted in the areas you govern. Do you not have an explanation for the Saint Palace?"

Palace Master looked around.

Her gaze fell on the Faces of several Mansion Lords.

The people present could be said to be the most powerful in the entire Saint Palace.

The Lords of the Seven Mansions.

Plus the Elder Lineage.

And the Venerable Lineage.

Different factions naturally breed many issues.

Struggling for power and profit.

These people might be at odds on the surface but colluding in secret.

In short, it has become a complete mess.

The Grand Elder coughed.

"These matters have nothing to do with our Elder Lineage. If a crisis occurs, we might take action. Now that several Mansion Lords are still sitting here peacefully, they must have a way to solve it."

As soon as the Grand Elder spoke, he shirked all his responsibilities.

When the Grand Elder said this, his gaze had already fallen on the Chonghua Mansion Lord.

After all, it was their mansion that first fell into chaos.

Thereby involving other mansions as well.

The Chonghua Mansion Lord took a deep breath.

"Everyone, it's not that I'm not managing it. I sent people, and they were killed directly. Plus, the matter of us using Gu Spirits over the years has become known to more and more people. They are practicing that Cultivation Technique, and clearly, many people are already dissatisfied with our Saint Palace's rule."

Hearing this, everyone's expressions changed.

Even the people from the Venerable Hall snorted coldly.

"Chonghua Mansion Lord, do you know what you are saying?"

Chonghua Mansion Lord slapped the table: "What's wrong with what I said? Do you think your Venerable Hall is anything good? All these years, you've just sat around eating and drinking. The Saint Palace gives you resources, lets you Cultivate, and gives you status."

"When our Chonghua Mansion first became chaotic, I requested your Venerable Hall to send experts to take action. The result? You all said you were Cultivating or had other matters, and there were no free people."

"Don't think I don't know your thoughts. You just wanted me to take action personally. If I died in that place in Chonghua Mansion, then you could choose another person to compete for my position. Do you take me for a fool!"

"Damn it, Chonghua Mansion is in chaos, and you still won't take action. Since you want to play, let's play! If you don't take action, I won't either."

"The Spiritual Liquid our Chonghua Mansion produced hasn't been given to your Venerable Hall in small amounts. In the end, you really think you're something special. You dogs, ungrateful bastards! Don't forget that your Venerable Hall's Cultivation resources are all provided by us."

"Since you are ungrateful, don't blame me. Since we're having a meeting, I'll say one thing."

"From now on, our Chonghua Mansion will not hand over a single bit of resources. Chonghua Mansion is already in complete chaos."

"Even those large tribes have started to become chaotic, and many people have died."

"In these past few days, tens of millions of people have died in our Chonghua Palace, and many people are practicing that Cultivation Technique. I have no ability to stop it."

"If there is to be punishment, I will go to the Prison of Severance myself. Do with me as you wish."

Hearing the words Prison of Severance, everyone else fell silent.

Chonghua Mansion Lord snorted coldly. They still wanted to drag his Chonghua Mansion down with them.

Did they really think he was made of clay?

He had long been displeased with the Venerable Lineage and the Elder Lineage. What a bunch of junk.

"Palace Master, if you ask me, you should have long ago taken back the power of the Elder Lineage and the Venerable Lineage. They occupy the latrine but don't poop. Look at how arrogant the Disciples of their lineages have become over the years."

"Our Disciples all need to complete missions, but their Venerable Hall is used to being overbearing. Relying on their great strength, they don't take anyone seriously and don't go to complete missions."

"Previously, the Saint Palace said they needed to take action when Nanjiang was in crisis, but they are becoming more and more keen on power, having long ago deviated from the Saint Palace's path."

"Chonghua, don't think that just because you have a mouth, you can fart as you please. Our Venerable Lineage is the Saint Palace's last line of defense; how can we easily go out?"

Chonghua slapped the table and stood up.

"Bullshit! You people are amassing wealth on a large scale and bullying our lineages. Do you want me to say it out loud?"

The expressions of the Venerable Lineage changed; they also thought of something.

Chonghua looked at the Venerable Lineage.

"From now on, our Chonghua resources will not be handed over at all. Instead of nurturing a bunch of ungrateful wolves, it's better to nurture our own Chonghua Disciples."

"Chonghua, do you want to divide the Saint Palace?" someone from the Elder Lineage spoke.

Chonghua took a deep breath: "Screw you! I was just about to curse your Elder Lineage. Before I could even speak, you old turtle took the lead."

"What kind of rubbish? You're responsible for resource distribution, and you operate in the shadows. Previously, I turned a blind eye and didn't want to deal with you, but now you dare to take the initiative to pop your head out."

"Damn your uncle's balls! If it weren't for giving you Face, I would have squeezed your balls off."

"Those idiotic Elders of yours just rely on you and even dare to offend our Chonghua elite Disciples."

"If it weren't for giving you Face, I would have killed you long ago, especially that grandson of yours, Grand Elder. What kind of trash is he, harming so many people?"

"I advise you to best warn your grandson, or I will take my Chonghua Lineage Disciples to your Elder Hall and self-detonate."

The Grand Elder suddenly stood up: "Chonghua, you're crazy."

Chonghua didn't yield at all: "I am damn well crazy! If you're not satisfied, let's settle this outside. I might not be able to beat you, but I'll blow you to bits even if I have to self-detonate."

The other Mansion Lords didn't speak.

Was Chonghua a fool?

Of course not.

Who is a fool!!

Those would have died long ago.

After all, Chonghua was the first to be in chaos. Only by going crazy could he ensure that the Chonghua Lineage would not be punished.

Even if punishment fell, it would be negligible and wouldn't cause any severe damage.

No one present was a fool.

They looked at the Grand Elder and the people from the Venerable Hall.

These two were also cooperating with Chonghua's acting.

Previously, Chonghua asked them to take action, and they indeed hadn't. The Venerable Hall indeed had a responsibility.

As for the Elder Lineage...

It should be that Chonghua had evidence against them.

Especially mentioning the Grand Elder's grandson.

Bringing it up proactively now...

If this matter is brought up again later, the punishment will invisibly dissipate a lot.

Everyone present was an old fox.

The fig leaf had been stripped away.

This matter would be considered over.

No one would be punished.

People are all very shrewd.

Otherwise, how could the Venerable, Elders, and Mansion Lords make such a scene? It would be a lack of propriety.

Palace Master looked at everyone calmly.

"Everyone, sit down!"

Chonghua, the Grand Elder, and the Venerables all snorted and sat down.

Many people sat in the hall.

It seemed peace had returned.

As if nothing had ever happened.

Palace Master stood up.

"It is my lack of ability as the Saint Lord that I haven't handled the relationships between the lineages well."

"I've made everyone feel wronged. It's my fault as the Saint Lord."

"Everyone, please Cultivate in the Saint Palace in peace. I will personally take action to resolve the chaos. After I return, I will go to the Ancestral Land to report to the Old Ancestor that I, Palace Master, have no ability to sit in this position of Saint Lord."

After Palace Master finished speaking, she had already left with her Disciples.

Everyone present was dumbfounded.

Especially Chonghua, the Elder Lineage, and the Venerable Lineage.

A sense of urgency rose in their hearts.

Even cold sweat had appeared on their foreheads.
