Chapter 168: The Scholarly Choice 2
At the place where the Crescent Moon was stationed, all the masters of the Crescent Moon Sect gathered in the empty council hall in the past at this moment, the Great Elder Yu Boyun led the four elders to stand on the left side, and on the right was Ding Yufeng, the second disciple of Murong Wumeng, the hall master of the Red Jade Hall, the third disciple of the hall master of the Piaoxiang Hall, and her daughter Murong Yanran.

Murong Wumeng, the head of the Crescent Moon Sect, sat on the Taishi chair in the middle, and in front of her, her eldest apprentice, Wen Ting, was kneeling on the ground at this time, telling the ins and outs of this conflict.
"So, you have known about this from beginning to end, but you have kept me in the dark, and now you have not withdrawn, so you have to come and explain everything to me so that you can ask me to help, is that so?" Murong Wumeng looked at the beloved disciple in front of her coldly, her face was expressionless, she couldn't see her joy and anger, her voice was still as cold and full of majesty as ever.
"Master Mingjian, the apprentice really had a last resort before, and he didn't mean to hide it from the master. Wen Ting lowered her head and said respectfully.
"Bitter, Senior Sister, what you said is a bit excessive, that person is the orphan of the fourth senior sister, if you say it, how can we not take care of it, do you think that after telling us, we will still harm him?" Ding Yufeng sneered.
"Second Senior Sister, it's not right for you to say that, Senior Sister doesn't say it, naturally there is a reason why she doesn't say it... Seeing that Ding Yufeng took the opportunity to fall into the well, Condensation, who had been friends with Wen Ting, hurriedly spoke up to help, but before she finished speaking, she was interrupted by Ding Yufeng.
"Reason, what reason can she have, it's just an excuse to shirk. The Black Tiger Gang has been looking for an excuse to restart the war and destroy our Crescent Sect to dominate Yuehe City, and now she has broken the truce between our faction and the Black Tiger Gang for more than ten years on impulse, and found a good excuse for the Black Tiger Gang, which can be described as a catastrophe. If you are not careful, hundreds of people from my faction may be involved in this whirlpool, reason, at this time, even if she is reasonable, what is the use, can you stop the Black Tiger Gang Won't I send a move. ”
"But Senior Sister is also here to save the orphans of the Fourth Senior Sister, this is excusable, can't it be that you watched the people of the Black Tiger Gang kill that child?"
"Well, it's understandable, if she had told her about it earlier, then how could all this have happened, we would have avenged that child's revenge, so why make such a mess of things as now. Ding Yufeng said disdainfully.
"Second Senior Sister, is it too much for you to say this, what Senior Sister said is just an unintentional mistake, and she never thought that things would evolve to this point. Besides, everything has already happened, and there is no point in arguing, so now we are here to discuss saving people, not who should take the responsibility. Murong Yanran said coquettishly.
"Little junior sister, people, we want to save, but we can't shirk the responsibility of whom. Although Wen Ting is my senior sister, since she has done something wrong, I can't shield her. The Crescent Moon Sect has always been rewarded for merit and punished for mistakes, if the rewards and punishments are not clear, how do you let the master serve the people in the future, should the great Crescent Moon Sect be an exception for a Wen Ting. What's more, when this change is happening, it is when people's hearts are fluctuating, and a careless handling may make the Crescent Moon faction fall into the hands of others, so for the sake of fairness and the overall situation, Wen Ting must be punished. Ding Yufeng said with a righteous expression.
"Second Senior Sister, you, you... Murong Yanran is still young, although she knows that what Ding Yufeng said is crooked, but she doesn't know how to refute it, although she has the heart to help Wen Ting, she can't speak for a long time.
But she couldn't say it, but someone knew how to say it, and Condensation stood up again at this moment.
"You are obviously falling into the well, Ding Yufeng, don't think that I don't know that you have always been jealous of the popularity of the senior sister who is better than you, and the call to inherit the position of the head of the family in the future is higher than you, even if you want to sit in the head of the house, you don't have to step on the top of the senior sister, so even if you can really sit in the position of the head in the future, do you think your ass can sit steadily?"
"Senior Sister Leng, Wen Ting taught you this, although I know that you have always been good friends with her, but even so, I didn't expect you to slander me so much for her. Everyone is the same teacher and sister, and it is really chilling that you are so bloody, just for your own selfishness. In the face of the condensation, Ding Yufeng frowned, and sneered at each other without showing weakness.
"You... Condensation was immediately angry when Ding Yufeng's words were aroused, and he was speechless all of a sudden, so he had to look at the other party with angry eyes.
"Yufeng is right, condensation, although Wen Ting is your senior sister, since you are the master of the hall, you must learn to think about the overall situation, and you should not be so protective of her. Among the five elders, a woman about forty years old who was about forty years old among the third one suddenly spoke, and she was Ding Yufeng's second aunt Ding Sitong, so at this critical moment, she naturally wanted to support her niece.
"Yes, as the lord of the same church, how can you act rashly, condensed, you must be cautious. Another elder echoed, but she was the lowest-ranked elder Chen Yulian, who had always been good friends with Ding Sitong.
"Elder Ding, Elder Chen, you... Condensation really didn't think that he was just speaking for his senior sister, but he suddenly became the target of everyone, he couldn't help but be full of grievances, his face turned red, and he wanted to open his mouth to say something, but after all, he sighed lightly and lowered his head helplessly.
"Ladies and gentlemen, this matter started with me, and it has nothing to do with her, the second senior sister and a few elders don't want to make the wrong person. In addition, we are discussing the matter of saving people at the moment, rather than blaming anyone's faults, if you can protect the orphans of the fourth senior sister this time, Wen Ting is willing to bear all the blame, and there is no need to say anything. Wen Ting turned abruptly and looked up to face the crowd.
"Hehe, what the senior sister said is incomprehensible, this trouble was caused by your insistence, how can you say something beautiful that you are willing to bear with all your might, do you think that this crime is planted by us out of thin air. Ding Yufeng sneered.
"Wen Ting, if you dare to do it, you must dare to admit it, no matter how you shirk this matter, it will be difficult to escape punishment, it is better to obediently bow down and admit your guilt, don't be stubborn anymore. Ding Sitong said.
"Yes, Wen Ting, since you are the senior sister of the Crescent Moon Sect, you should set an example for everyone, as long as you sincerely admit your mistakes, the head of the sect will not punish you too much, and our elders will also intercede for you. Chen Yulian said bitterly and persuasively.
"What's wrong with Senior Sister, why do the elders and Second Senior Sister embarrass her so much, she is obviously just trying to save people. Murong Yanran said angrily.
"Little junior sister, it's true that saving people is not fake but can cause trouble, the two can't be confused, isn't it right for us to distinguish priorities now?" Ding Yufeng said.
"But... ”
"Enough. Murong Wumeng on the Taishi chair slapped the armrest fiercely and said sharply, seeing that she was angry, the people who were arguing in the hall suddenly fell silent.
"Ting'er, this time you did something inappropriate, as a teacher, I will punish you for facing the wall in the Orchid Garden for a month, and reflect on it. As for saving people, Yufeng, I'll leave it to you to negotiate with the Black Tiger Gang. Murong Wumeng said.
"The disciple obeyed. ”
"Master, I... Wen Ting wanted to say more, but Murong Wumeng interrupted her words with a wave of his hand, and said directly, "Don't say more, I have made up my mind on this matter, the Great Elder stays, and the rest of the people retreat on their own." ”
"Yes. The crowd bowed and then withdrew.
Although Murong Yanran wanted to help Wen Ting, she didn't dare to disobey her mother's order, so she had no choice but to obey her fate, but she immediately came to Wen Ting's side, obviously wanting to comfort the other party.
As for the condensation, he had been silent since the beginning, and left straight after the meeting ended.
"Xiaoxin, do you know, this time it's finally a mouthful of my resentment for many years. In the corridor, Ding Yufeng said to the maid beside him with a proud face.
"Second Senior Sister, was Senior Sister really punished by the head of the house this time, this is an unprecedented punishment for her. Xiao Xin asked in disbelief.
"It's rare that she made a mistake this time, if I don't take the opportunity to suppress her fiercely, wouldn't I have lived up to the hard waiting for so many years. Ding Yufeng sneered.
"Hey, Xiaoqin is not good at standing guard at the door, this anxious look is where to go, is it possible... ”
Looking at the oncoming doorman in a hurry, Ding Yufeng, who was about to go back to his residence, suddenly became interested, and said curiously, "Xiaoqin, where are you going?"
"Back to the second senior sister, someone asked to see the senior sister outside the door. Xiaoqin said respectfully.
"Who is it?" asked Ding Yufeng.
The man claimed to be Tie Xuan's maidservant. Xiaoqin replied.
"Oh, I didn't expect that kid to have such a loyal servant, it's really rare. Ding Yufeng sneered, "You went to send her, and said that the senior sister was thinking behind closed doors and couldn't meet outsiders." ”
"This... Xiaoqin's face was embarrassed, as if she didn't expect Ding Yufeng's answer, and she was stunned for a while.
"Why, you dare not listen to my words. Ding Yufeng's eyes widened, and she pretended to be angry.
Xiaoqin didn't dare, so she replied. As soon as Xiaoqin came into contact with Ding Yufeng's sharp gaze, her body immediately shuddered, bowed, and left quickly.
"Xiaoxin, you go to the door to guard, no matter who comes to see Wen Ting during this time, they will send it to me, understand?" Ding Yufeng's eyes rolled, and then he commanded the maid behind him, his eyes implying deep meaning.
"The subordinates obeyed. Hearing this, Xiao Xin immediately nodded.
"Hmph, if you want to save people, as long as I have me, I will not let you get your wish. Looking at the back of Xiaoxin's departure, Ding Yufeng smiled coldly.
Outside the Crescent Sect's station, Shuxiang didn't know how long she had been standing, her thin body standing tenaciously erect, bathed in the warm sun.
The messengers seem to have long forgotten about her existence, and it's no wonder that anyone who runs empty three times and can't get an answer will go on a fourth trip.
Glancing up at the deflected sun, Shuka glanced at the open door in front of her again, which was empty except for the four female guards standing upright with swords.
"Looks like it's time for me to make a choice. There was no sadness or joy on the silent scholar's face, but her eyes were already firm, as if she had made up her mind about a certain choice.
