Chapter 1031: Feudal Rank Is Not What I Seek, Only That the Sea Waves May Be Calm!
The Yuan Yang Sect's inheritance could be traced back to the third son of the Flame Emperor, and had been passed down from the ancient heavenly court through a long and storied history!
This tale, of course, had been fabricated out of thin air by Liu Yu together with Master Kushu, Ink Plum, Yellow Brow, and the others over the past few days.
After all, throughout history, everything had to be done with a legitimate pretext.
If you did not seize the moral high ground, someone else would!
Compared with a mere ordinary cultivator who had stumbled upon an opportunity, soared to the heavens in a single bound, and become the leader among the alliance elders,
being an inheritor of the Flame Emperor's lineage, with the sect's history tracing back to the ancient heavenly court, naturally carried extraordinary prestige.
Now that they were merely restoring a few traces of their forebears' glory, such an explanation was undoubtedly far more acceptable.
Compared with powers like the divine transformation great sects or the Five Elements Sect, the Yuan Yang Sect's foundation was still too shallow.
With Liu Yu's own strength being sufficient to shoulder the position of alliance elder,
if he could also prove through certain means the legitimacy of himself and his sect's leadership over the masses, it would undoubtedly reduce a great deal of trouble.
Even if everyone didn't believe it and guessed what was really going on, they would only dare think it in their hearts. On the surface, they still had no choice but to cooperate.
If anyone dared raise objections, Liu Yu himself was "somewhat skilled in fists and feet," and with the influence of the Qingyun Society, he believed it would be enough to make some people obediently shut their mouths.
"The Yuan Yang Sect is actually so extraordinary, with such a hidden history. No wonder it could produce a figure like Friend Qingyang."
"So this sect is actually one of the direct legacies left behind by the ancient heavenly court's 'Flame Emperor.'"
When Master Kushu's words fell, regardless of what everyone was thinking in their hearts, the true lords of the Qingyun Society all revealed looks of sudden realization on their faces.
What right or wrong?
What fairness?
All of that could go to the side!
In the eyes of nascent soul old monsters, these were trivial matters. What they cared about first was position; they would never forget which side they were on!
Since they had joined the Qingyun Society, and with the "Alliance of a Hundred Horses" binding them to share honor and disgrace, everything naturally had to be considered from the Qingyun Society's standpoint first.
As long as something benefited the Qingyun Society, then even if there were major issues with it, even if by ordinary standards and instincts it was clearly wrong, they could still turn black into white and call a deer a horse.
If something did not benefit the Qingyun Society, then even if it really made sense, as long as they wanted to oppose it, they could always find reasons from every angle to do so.
More than eighty true lords, with strength, territory, and manpower, had plenty of ways to make the "upholders of justice" shut up.
Even if they couldn't solve the problem, they could still solve the cultivator who raised the problem.
With dozens of nascent soul forces, they were influential enough to weigh heavily across the entire Tian Nan cultivation world, second only to the three great divine transformation sects in influence, and in some respects even surpassing them.
Manipulating public opinion and reversing right and wrong were merely minor matters.
Young people who had just entered the cultivation world often liked to talk about right and wrong and kept "justice" on their lips.
Nascent soul old monsters, after experiencing the dangers of human hearts, also liked to keep "justice" on their lips, but in their hearts there was only profit, and they spoke only of position.
Our Qingyun Society fears no criticism and welcomes no challenge!
