Above the Qingyun Peak, outside the Boundless Abyss, there were already many disciples and elders gathered.
These disciples and elders were all led by Senior Sister Ann.
They looked at a sundial not far away.
When the shadow came to an end, Ann Xiaokang said, "Time's up."
The door to the endless abyss was pushed open.
Meng Fan walked out from the silver mist.
More than two hundred disciples and elders stood up one after another.
Ann Xiaokang walked up and greeted, "Weiyang."
"I know." "No," Meng Fan replied plainly. Even though he is in closed door training, I still know a lot of things that happened outside and that I did not shut my ears. "
When Meng Fan came out, Chen Qin had been convicted and placed under house arrest for six months.
The Great Clan Elder was the leader of the Ninth Gate, so even if he committed a crime, he could not be punished to the maximum. He could not be sentenced to a prison, unless it was an unforgivable crime.
In the short span of a few months that Chen Qin had been managing the Northern Desert, he had discovered that the reserve of Natural Crystal s in the Northern Desert had been reduced by ten percent. This was not a small number;
Chen Qin was speechless over the loss of the Natural Crystal. The sect took him down and placed him under house arrest, so there were still offerings, but his position was removed and he no longer had any authority. He was not allowed to take even half a step out of the house arrest.
In the blink of an eye, half a year passed.
Only Ann Xiaokang had relied on her status of a Heaven And Earth Ranking disciple to see Chen Qin four times. According to Ann Xiaokang, Chen Qin was in a pretty good condition, after all, he had lived for many years and had experienced some hardships, so before going to the Northern Desert, Chen Qin had more or less predicted that something would happen.
The last time he saw Ann Xiaokang, more than ten days ago, Chen Qin said that Ye Weiyang was about to come out of seclusion. When Ye Weiyang came out, he would tell him everything that he needed to know.
Ann Xiaokang conveyed these words truthfully, but Ann Xiaokang didn't fully understand the underlying meaning behind them.
To the more than two hundred disciples and elders outside, Chen Qin was the leader of Chen Faction. Since he was no longer present, there was no leader in the group, so they naturally hoped that Meng Fan would be able to save Chen Qin.
However, Meng Fan understood the meaning behind Wu Tie's words.
"Disciples and elders below the fifth tribulation, please return and wait for my news." Meng Fan only said this.
Very quickly, tea was brewed in the Qingyun Peak wide dragon cave, leaving only nine people behind. Other than Meng Fan, Ann Xiaokang, and three other disciples and four elders, all of them had Celestial King of the Five Tribulations cultivation realms.
Meng Fan told them the meaning of Chen Qin's words.
Now that Chen Qin was under house arrest, in the eyes of outsiders, he had been stripped of his authority and was in a difficult situation, but in reality, that was not the case. At the same time Chen Qin was placed under house arrest, other great elders in other parts of the sect were also fighting against each other. As for Chen Qin, since he no longer had any authority, in the eyes of outsiders, his Chen Faction was already beheaded.
Even if he managed to do it, Chen Qin would be forced out of the stage. After going up on stage again, he would definitely be struck again, and another blow would probably not just be a simple punishment, but it might even affect the entire Chen Faction.
If he comes back, can he really save Chen Qin?
Only Meng Fan and Ann Xiaokang had the ability to do so. But what did the two of them have to do and how much did they have to pay?
So no matter how you look at it, you should "give up" Chen Qin first.
He was under house arrest, so he was safe.
That was what Chen Qin meant.
Chen Qin was unable to participate in the following matters. What he needed to do was to be a 'Tiger Zhong', silent, patient, and without saying a word, and then wait for his faction to gain an advantage or protect themselves in the upcoming battles.
After Meng Fan had said those words clearly, everyone at the scene fell into silence.1
After a long while, an elder said, "Weiyang is right, Brother Chen, that is indeed what you mean. It is definitely not the right decision for us to rescue him now."
"Elder Chen said that the matters outside can only be entrusted to us. We will discuss about the various matters, but Elder Chen has not designated anyone to make the decision." Ann Xiaokang said as she looked at Meng Fan.
Everyone looked at Meng Fan.
Chen Qin did not say this because he did not want Chen Faction to become stubborn, rotten, and even want to have a leader. Chen Faction is a group of disciples and elders who are in a group to keep themselves warm, it's just that up till now, it's still considered strong, Chen Qin himself has always been bringing benefits to everyone.
However, the situation now was extremely critical, and he needed someone to lead the group with a solid word.
Chen Qin didn't say who it was, but there was no need to say it.
This person could only be Meng Fan.
He had the realm, the strength, the prestige, the human heart, and Meng Fan.
In Chen Faction Sect, everyone agreed with Meng Fan's position, he was also quite generous to everyone.
"Everyone." Meng Fan said. Don't talk about this for now, I just want to tell everyone, be patient and not talk, it's just like what Elder Chen said, we want to be the Mausoleum of Books. "
After Meng Fan came out of seclusion, the entire Chen Faction sect suddenly quieted down.
They no longer took part in the battles between any of the major powers. Ann Xiaokang, a few elders, and some disciples of the fifth tribulation all began to announce that they were going to go into secluded meditation.
As a great power, it was impossible for them to stay unmoving in the storm. All sorts of powers would contact their Chen Faction, and some even wanted to break down their Chen Faction while Chen Qin was no longer around. There were also a few elders who had been beaten in various ways, but Meng Fan's meaning was that they should hold on, not move, and not fight against any side.
Immediately, there were people within the sect who laughed because Chen Faction's people were all "turtles".
These words were rather unpleasant to hear.
However, Meng Fan smiled and declined to comment.
If he wanted to achieve great things, he would be infuriated with just a single taunt. How could he achieve great things?
The taunting attack was so cheap.
As expected, Chen Faction was like a "turtle" lying inside the sect, unmoving, deaf to everything that was happening outside.
Gradually, the various factions also began to give up on interacting with Chen Faction.
Even Faang Haoyun's group stopped conversing with the Chen Faction people.
It seems that Chen Faction has really become a lonely faction.
However, at this moment.
Meng Fan suddenly announced that he would expand his Qingyun Peak.
This was a qualification that the disciples of Heaven And Earth Ranking possessed. After Meng Fan stepped into the Heaven And Earth Ranking, the area of his territory had been allowed to expand by three times, but this time, he had never expanded his Qingyun Peak. He announced that they were going to expand the Qingyun Peak and draw a rough draft of it, but the expansion project was very vast, and was not something that could be completed in a day and a night. For this reason, Meng Fan gave a wide order to gather all the disciples and elders, and any disciple or elder could come over to help him complete the expansion of his Qingyun Peak.
At this time, the mountain peak had suddenly been expanded with great fanfare, causing everyone to look over.
