Chapter 5855 5853-One For One
Yu Zhenyang's expression was a little unsightly. Although Zhang Ziqiang's words were all praise, the GreenCloud Pavilion was the weakest of the three great pavilions on the North Island. If he said that this was all because of his leadership, wouldn't that be equivalent to saying that he, Yu Zhenyang, was a complete failure and had made no contribution to the GreenCloud Pavilion at all?
However, as the pavilion master of the GreenCloud Pavilion, Yu Zhenyang couldn't be bothered with such a verbal argument. He said to Zhang Ziqiang,""We don't have a conclusion on the ins and outs of this matter yet. Let's find a few disciples at the scene and ask them."
If it was someone else, Yu Zhenyang would've at least apprehended the person first, even if he didn't send the law enforcement Hall. But Lin Yi was different. Not to mention his importance to the GreenCloud Pavilion, just Shangguan Tianhua's face was something Yu Zhenyang had to consider. Who on the North Island didn't know that Lin Yi was a junior that Shangguan Tianhua valued?
"Pavilion master, you don't believe me?" Zhang Ziqiang was slightly angry. I've already investigated this matter-it was Lin Yi who killed our inner sect manager in front of all the disciples and shopkeeper Xu. What else is there to ask? We should just kill him!"
Yu Zhenyang's heart was also gradually filled with anger. Even if this Zhang Ziqiang's power was no weaker than his, it shouldn't be enough to suppress him. But now, he dared to be so overbearing. He didn't even put Yu Zhenyang, the pavilion master, in his eyes. Did he really think that Yu Zhenyang was made of mud?
"Deputy Pavilion master Zhang! Do you have the final say in the GreenCloud Pavilion now?" Yu Zhenyang said coldly and emphasized the word "Fu."
Zhang Ziqiang slightly squinted his eyes and then chuckled,""Of course not. Everything in the GreenCloud Pavilion is naturally up to you, Pavilion master Yu. It's just that our inner sect's eldest senior brother has been killed, and he's also an early mysterious Ascension realm expert. He's the hope of our GreenCloud Pavilion. If Pavilion master Yu doesn't respond to this, it will definitely chill the hearts of all the disciples!"
As soon as he said this, the elders who supported Zhang Ziqiang immediately echoed him. As long as Yu Zhenyang didn't deal with it well, they were afraid that it would become a situation of forcing him to abdicate.
Yu Zhenyang's lips curled into a faint sneer. His eyes slowly glided across the faces of those elders, causing them to lower their voices and turn their heads away. They didn't dare to make eye contact with him.
Zhang Ziqiang's heart trembled slightly. He knew that Yu Zhenyang, the pavilion master, had accumulated a lot of power and might not be able to shake his position for a while.
"As for Lin Yi's murder, since vice-Pavilion master Zhang said that there's no need to investigate it anymore, then we won 't. However, this happened outside the gates of the pavilion, so strictly speaking, it's no longer within our territory. Plus, both parties are disciples of the pavilion, so it can only be considered a personal grudge. Although it's a little against the rules, it's not our place to interfere!" Yu Zhenyang said slowly, clearly trying to help Lin Yi.
Of course, Zhang Ziqiang couldn't just agree to it. He immediately opposed,""Pavilion master Yu, isn't that a little wrong? How could the main gate of the GreenCloud Pavilion not be considered within the territory of the GreenCloud Pavilion? Even if you said that it wasn't their sect's fault for fighting, it was still a fact that Lin Yi had killed a xuansheng stage master. Even if it was somewhere else, couldn't they take revenge if a xuansheng stage disciple of the GreenCloud Pavilion was killed? If that's the case, it's better for the GreenCloud Pavilion to close down as soon as possible!"
Yu Zhenyang looked at Zhang Ziqiang and suddenly smiled.""Vice Pavilion master Zhang, Lin Yi did kill an early stage mysterious Ascension realm master, but he's also a disciple of the GreenCloud Pavilion. Tell me, after losing a master who only reached the early stage of mysterious Ascension in forty years, do you really want to kill a genius who's only in his twenties and is already at the peak of the late stage of mysterious Ascension?"
Everyone was silent!
Zhang Ziqiang was also dumbfounded. Of course, he knew that Lin Yi was a disciple of the GreenCloud Pavilion, and he also knew that Lin Yi was a master at the peak of the late xuansheng stage. But he had never thought about how important this person was to the GreenCloud Pavilion.
If someone who took forty years to go from peak nascent soul to early mysterious Ascension stage was the hope of the pavilion, then what was a monster like Lin Yi? Wasn't he a key figure in the rise of the GreenCloud Pavilion?
"Pavilion master Yu is right. Lin Yi is a once-in-a-thousand-years genius, how can we just kill him like that? He's just a master in the early stages of the mysterious Ascension realm, so what if he's killed? that kind of trash can't even compare to one of Lin Yi's fingers!" One of the elders who supported Yu Zhenyang immediately voiced his support.
They didn't have much help in making decisions, but they were very smooth in waving flags and shouting.
Zhang Ziqiang was not willing to fail like this. He still straightened his neck and said,""I don't deny that Lin Yi is a true genius, but he won't stay in the GreenCloud Pavilion. Look at him, he's been traveling all over the place these past few years. Not only did he go to the Western part of the island, he even opened a pill house in the central part of the island. Pavilion master Yu, do you think he'll stay in the northern part of the island forever?"
Yu Zhenyang didn't say anything this time, because what Zhang Ziqiang said was the truth. Not only that, Lin Yi was someone Shangguan Tianhua valued. Who knew if he would go to the rising Sky Pavilion in the end? If he were to argue with Zhang Ziqiang now and Lin Yi left the pavilion, his prestige as the pavilion master would be dealt a fatal blow.
Jia mufan couldn't help but interrupt."Junior Brother Lin is a person who can see the big picture. As long as we make things clear to him, I believe he will definitely stay in the GreenCloud Pavilion. With Junior Brother Lin's strength, one for one, the GreenCloud Pavilion shouldn't be at a disadvantage."
It was cruel to exchange a life for a life, but Jia mufan didn't have a good impression of the guy who took his position as the senior brother. He was happy that Lin Yi could kill that guy.
"Shut up!" Zhang Ziqiang roared,"is this a place where you can talk?" You've interrupted the normal progress of the meeting time and time again. Do you want to die?"
Yu Zhenyang immediately sneered."Deputy Pavilion master Zhang, you're so impressive. Jia mufan is my Pavilion master's assistant, and you were the one who suggested this position. Since he's the pavilion master's assistant, of course he has the right to speak on my behalf on this occasion!"
