"Where have the four elders gone, Ling Guang, Hui Gu, Zhou Shuo, and Ge Sheng, and what happened to the injuries on your people?" The warm atmosphere in the audience suddenly stagnated, and the joy instantly turned into silence, all the disciples lowered their heads high, their expressions were gloomy, and some of the younger female disciples even faintly burst into tears, and they were silent.

Seeing this, Qing Mingzi looked at Twilight Cloud, who was in charge beside him, "Senior brother, what happened?"

Facing the scorching oppressive gaze, Twilight Cloud lowered his head slightly and sighed, "This matter is a long story, let's go into the hall and talk about it slowly."

Glancing at the eager eyes of the nearly a thousand people present, he realized that this was indeed not the place to speak, so he didn't say anything and turned around and walked into the hall, and the elders behind him hurriedly followed, and Twilight Yunheng also entered the Liuyang Hall after arranging it.

............

In the hall, more than a dozen elders sat in columns, the five peak masters were at the forefront, and Dusk Yunheng and Qing Yingzi were the first on the left and one on the right, sitting side by side.

"You mean, this matter is the involvement of my righteous people?" Qing Mingzi's face was expressionless, his expression was calm and indifferent, and no one present could tell what his mood was.

"Although there is no direct evidence, according to the secret letter sent by Zen Master Huizhi before his death, there are signs of involvement of famous families such as Tiandaomen, Linlang Mountain, Heifengtang, and some small gangs" For this senior brother, Dui Yunheng has always been in awe since he was a teenager, and he did not dare to hide anything in front of him, and told everything he knew.

"What is Nangong Ze's attitude towards this matter?"

"This ......" Twilight Yunheng hesitated, her face was embarrassed, and she was struggling with whether to tell the other party.

Ling Zhan's temper in the next position couldn't bear it, and he slapped the table and stood up, "Hmph! That Nangong Ze and those traitors are the same dog at all, what dare you not say" The freshly brewed tea on the table was knocked over to the ground, and the disciple next to him was so frightened that he hurriedly stepped back and stood aside.

"Senior brother, don't talk nonsense! Let's not say that we don't have evidence now, even if there is at this critical moment, we can't have internal strife within our martial arts alliance, otherwise we will be taken advantage of by the evil way, and then the world is afraid that there will be chaos" Twilight Yunheng's temperament has always been like this, always focusing on the overall situation, and never favoritism.

Stretched out his hand to stop the quarrel between the two, and dusted off the corners of his clothes, "According to what you said, Nangong Ze is a little suspicious, but what the senior brother of the head of the family is right, since the evil path is now revived, and the many demons on death row have escaped by luck, then our first task now is to cooperate with the Wulin League to clear out the evil demons, and as for the rest of the matter, it is not too late to discuss it slowly in the future."

Although Ling Zhan always works against Twilight Cloud on weekdays, he is still convinced in the face of this world's number one senior brother, and when he sees him say the same, he can only sit down in frustration and listen quietly to the other party's next arrangements.

Seeing that no one objected, Qing Mingzi nodded with a little satisfaction, and then looked at Elder Mo Yangfeng, who was at the top of the left side, "Senior Brother Song, how many disciples and elders have been lost in my Sword Sect in this catastrophe, can there be a detailed record?"

Since the establishment of the Ziyang Sword Sect, Moyang Peak has always been responsible for punishment, scheduling, guarding and other duties in the door, and when selecting disciples, he has always chosen people with strict personalities and fair behavior, and Song Yu, as the peak master of Moyang Peak, is even more rigorous, and such things are usually recorded in detail by it.

Got up from his seat and took two steps forward, facing the twilight clouds and bowed to Qing Yingzi, "Back to Senior Brother, in this battle, my Sword Sect has lost 264 outer disciples, 132 inner disciples, 23 disciples of each peak, and four elders, Ling Guang, Huigu and other four elders, a total of 423 people, as for the property loss of the sect, it has not been fully counted, but the preliminary estimate is at least the sum of the income of my Sword Sect in the three years." The tone was soothing and coherent, allowing everyone to clearly understand how serious the trauma inside the door was.

"More than four hundred people, almost three percent of the disciples of my Sword Sect, almost the most serious loss in the past hundred years, those who committed the murder have all been recorded?"

"At that time, the people who attacked the mountain didn't expect that the people of the Barbarian Sect would suddenly come back to help, so most of them were killed by us on the spot, and some of the escapees I also ordered people to write down their appearance and characteristics one by one, just wait for the senior brother to administer justice for my Sword Sect after he left the customs!" As he spoke, Song Yu suddenly knelt on one knee, with tears in his eyes, and he couldn't get up no matter how Qing Mingzi persuaded him.

"Please senior brother to administer justice for us!" More than a dozen elders knelt down with Song Yu to plead, and even Du Yunheng, who was the head of the sect, couldn't help but get up and bend over and arch his hand, everyone was holding back a fire in their hearts, it was not that they had never seen death, but this time the matter was too aggrieved, everyone had inevitable grief and anger in their hearts, the disciples who had been brought up by hand in the past, and the senior brothers who had been close to each other for many years died tragically in front of them one by one, and no one could help but resent.

"Junior brothers and sisters, rest assured, after this matter is investigated, those who dare to offend my sect, even if they run to the ends of the earth, I will definitely not let them go!" stepped forward and helped Song Yu up, his fists clenched, his eyes firm, and the powerful aura from before once again burst out, making everyone feel his resoluteness.

After everyone returned to their seats, Qing Mingzi made a major decision

"Apprentice?" everyone looked at him in amazement, wanting to know what he meant.

"Not only do I want to accept disciples, but each of you must accept more than three, and you have to release this news, my Sword Sect has lost a lot of disciples this time, and it is urgent to replenish new disciples to get started, so as to provide the bottom and backbone for the next eradication of the evil path" Qing Yingzi's face was calm, and a sentence gave the elders present a problem.

Everyone looked at each other, and they all saw each other's helplessness. Qingyang Peak Elder Shu Xue stepped forward, "Senior Brother, it's not that we don't want to accept it, but among those of us, even the head of the sect who is busy with affairs already has three disciples, not to mention the others, let's take Senior Brother Ling Zhan as an example, there are already twenty-seven disciples under him, we are really too busy!" As soon as these words came out, except for a few peak masters, the rest of the people responded one after another, saying that they really couldn't spare their time.

Seeing that so many juniors and sisters were all opposed to his suggestion, Qing Mingzi's face was a little embarrassed, and when he was about to consider whether to reduce it appropriately, Ling Zhan slapped the table again and stood up.

Everyone, including Qing Mingzi, looked at him one after another, their faces puzzled.

"What's wrong with the twenty-seven disciples under my door, I'm not all the ones who are trained in the same way, and I didn't rush to the front in any battle! But there are only five or six people in your disciples, and you can't even get a table for dinner, what qualifications do you have to say that you can't be busy, if you want to accept disciples on a large scale, how can you do it with only three people, at least five more people, just make up a table of eight immortals!" As soon as Ling Zhan opened his mouth, he could itch the roots of the elders' angry teeth, and they all got up to argue with him, the three of them couldn't bring it, and five more people could be added, how could it be possible.

For a while, the Liuyang Hall seemed to have become a vegetable market, you and I were in a mess, Ling Zhan fought one person against seven or eight people, completely a scene of tongue fighting against Confucianism, the momentum was violent, and he refused to back down at all.

"How could eight people bring it over, there are not many disciples in the sect, the sect's resources are limited, it is impossible to cultivate so many people in one go, and if we are all busy with the disciples, who will take care of the things in the sect!" Although it was an argument, the other party did say the key to the matter.

But Ling Zhan didn't shy away from it, and continued to argue with him, "Who told you that the disciple must be taught by the master himself! Soon after I entered the master's sect, the master died at the hands of the evil demon, but I was taught by the senior brother at that time, and now I am not an elder of Chiyang Peak?"

"You...... You...... The things of this world can be especially generalized!" Everyone was told by Ling Zhan's theory, and they didn't know how to answer.

As the so-called speaker has no intention of listening, Qing Yingzi heard Ling Zhan say this, and indeed remembered the matter of teaching Ling Zhan's martial arts back then, and had an idea in his heart, and immediately stretched out his hand to stop a few people from arguing, "Senior brother and sister woke up the person in the dream, at this time, my Sword Sect is at a special moment, we really don't have to stick to the ordinary way of accepting and teaching apprentices, we can pick out qualified disciples from the door, and it is not impossible to teach introductory martial arts to new disciples, what do you think?"

Everyone, look at me, I look at you, no one expressed their opinions first, but in the end, it was Elder Fang Xun of Jinyangfeng, who had always been silent, suddenly got up and handed over his hand, "I agree with the senior brother's suggestion" to express his position in just one sentence, and after finishing speaking, he immediately turned around and sat back in his chair, and continued to remain silent, his eyes were half-closed and half-open, as if he was awake but not awake, putting on an attitude that he didn't care about himself.

When everyone was still wondering why Fang Xun suddenly spoke, Nian Heng, who was known as the "Ziyang Two Ghosts" with him, also slowly got up and bowed his hand, "I also agree!"

When he sat down, he deliberately glanced at Fang Xun beside him, and saw that the other party's expression had not changed, and he still looked lifeless, so he couldn't help but shake his head and chuckle, no one knew what the two of them were thinking.

In any case, there were immediately three more peak masters to support this time, and the atmosphere suddenly became tense, if one or two more elders supported it, I am afraid that this matter would become a certainty, and it would be difficult to object.

After all, they are all brothers in the same sect, and Qing Mingzi didn't want to make this matter too stiff, so he didn't rush it out, sat quietly on the top and picked up a cup of tea that he hadn't drunk for a long time, and slowly tasted the tea, seemingly casual and indifferent, but in fact, Yu Guang paid attention to the changes in the expressions of everyone present at any time.

Since Ling Zhan put forward the suggestion that the disciples should lead the disciples just now, Song Yu has been frowning, and he has not spoken for a long time, and he has not even noticed when Fang Xun and the two people around him got up to take a stand.
