360: Yun Zhentian disagrees
Su Xuan had just gotten another good thing for free!
"Oh my goodness, am I still a villain? I feel like a Destined Protagonist now!"
Su Xuan thought to himself.
"In that case, I shall respectfully accept the offer, Holy Lord!"
Su Xuan said with a smile.
Hearing Su Xuan agree, Qing Ling Holy Land Lord was very happy, and Liu Su Su was equally happy.
In that case, wouldn't she and Su Xuan be the officially recognized couple of Qingling Holy Land and Tianwu Holy Land?
"Hahahahaha! Young Master Su, you are truly a straightforward person! I love dealing with people like you the most!"
Qing Ling Holy Land Lord burst into laughter.
However, at this moment, Yun Zhentian raised a dissenting opinion.
"Holy Lord, although your proposal is good, don't you think it's too absurd to do so?"
"Allowing an outsider to be the so-called Honorary Saint is the first such instance in the entire history of Qingling Holy Land!"
Yun Zhentian said.
As the Grand Elder of Qingling Holy Land, Yun Zhentian's influence was second only to Qing Ling Holy Land Lord.
He still harbored resentment over Su Xuan snatching his daughter-in-law earlier!
"Yun Zhentian, what do you mean by this? Are you questioning my decision?"
Qing Ling Holy Land Lord frowned slightly.
Liu Ruoli also looked displeased, ready to slap Yun Zhentian at any moment.
"Holy Lord, I am not questioning your decision! As the Grand Elder of the Holy Land, I am merely expressing my opinion! Am I not allowed to express my opinion?"
"I know that Su Xuan's talent is excellent, arguably the strongest in the history of Qingling Holy Land!"
"However, he is still an outsider! To allow an outsider to enjoy such great power and status!"
"Those who don't know might think that Qingling Holy Land has already become Su Xuan's slave!"
Yun Zhentian sneered.
"Indeed, I think what the Grand Elder said is right! This is indeed not very good!"
"Hmm... the Grand Elder has a point! What's the difference between doing this and letting an outsider step on our Holy Land?"
As Yun Zhentian's words fell, the group of people who supported Yun Zhentian also began to echo him.
Just like that, what was originally a pleasant conversation was suddenly disrupted by Yun Zhentian.
Qing Ling Holy Land Lord forcefully suppressed his anger. Indeed, Yun Zhentian was right; his actions did give the impression that Qingling Holy Land was being stepped on!
However, they were essentially a group of businessmen, and the benefits Su Xuan brought them were immeasurable.
In the face of such immense benefits, what was this small grievance?
Moreover, although Su Xuan was a Saint, he was only an Honorary Saint.
In other words, Qingling Holy Land could revoke Su Xuan's title of Honorary Saint at any time.
"Holy Lord, it seems there are some dissenting voices within your ranks!"
Su Xuan teased.
This Yun Zhentian was truly something; he didn't snatch his wife, but his son's wife, yet he was acting as if he had eaten gunpowder, constantly targeting him!
It seemed he truly wouldn't shed tears until he saw the coffin! He already had Lu Chen as a worker, yet he still wanted to turn himself into one too?
"Grand Elder, I know there are some conflicts between you and Young Master Su, but this matter has been settled. I hope you can let go of the past!"
"As you know, we are all essentially businessmen. Harmony is precious, and harmony brings wealth. There's no need to haggle over such matters!"
Qing Ling Holy Land Lord said.
Upon hearing this, Yun Zhentian's expression immediately became as uncomfortable as if he had eaten excrement.
"Good, good, truly good! Holy Lord! You truly speak without feeling the pain!"
"Damn it, you weren't the one whose daughter-in-law was snatched away, so of course you can let it go!"
"You must know! Su Xuan snatched my daughter-in-law! My son almost developed a Heart Demon because of this! How can you tell me to let it go?"
Yun Zhentian slammed the chair, and the atmosphere instantly became tense.
"Yun Zhentian! If your son can't protect what he wants, then that's his incompetence!"
"If he truly had the ability! How could he have lost Zhaoxue to Su Xuan?"
"Moreover, someone who can use his fiancée as a bet, do you think your son is a good person?"
"I'm truly glad that I wasn't in a hurry to finalize the marriage with your Yun Family back then, otherwise, I would have been truly miserable!"
The speaker was South Yunxia, Nan Zhaoxue's father.
Seeing Yun Zhentian bring this up, he immediately became angry.
Good heavens, Yun Cang, you used my daughter as a bet, and I haven't even said anything to you, yet you're talking about my good son-in-law?
Ever since witnessing Su Xuan's talent, South Yunxia had wished he could immediately arrange Nan Zhaoxue's marriage to Su Xuan, so he could firmly hold Su Xuan in his grasp!
And the higher Su Xuan's status, the greater the help he would receive.
Therefore, regarding the establishment of the Honorary Saint, South Yunxia was the first to propose it!
Now, Yun Zhentian actually stood out to block his path to wealth, so he naturally wouldn't let Yun Zhentian off!
"Heh heh, Brother Nan! You are truly spineless! When you made the marriage arrangements with me earlier, you didn't have this attitude!"
"Now that you've seen Su Xuan's talent, you immediately threw yourself into Su Xuan's embrace!"
"If someone with even greater talent than Su Xuan appears in the future, will you also sell your daughter to him?"
It must be said that Yun Zhentian's glib tongue was formidable; he immediately seized South Yunxia's weak point and dealt a heavy blow.
"Can you blame me if your own son is useless? We were originally a political marriage, did you really take it seriously?"
"Besides, your son lost to Su Xuan, which was a matter of accepting the bet. Are you still holding a grudge?"
"Are you, a dignified Emperor, someone who is so untrustworthy and unwilling to accept a loss? Thankfully, I didn't immediately let Zhaoxue marry your son!"
"Otherwise, after everything was done, you would probably have just turned hostile and disavowed everything!"
"Who the hell would be willing to do business with you after that!"
South Yunxia also spoke without showing weakness.
It's just talking smack! Who can't do it! After all, they've lived for over a hundred years; it's hard to say who would win in an argument!
"Who the hell are you calling untrustworthy? Who doesn't know that I, Yun Emperor, am the most trustworthy?"
Yun Zhentian said loudly.
"Heh heh, you trustworthy? If you were trustworthy, would you be here blabbering so much?"
South Yunxia also said loudly.
