Chapter 120 - Be High Profile
Chapter 120: Be High Profile
Wei Jinyong put away the portrait of the Sect Master and was about to speak when someone suddenly came in from outside the door.
He walked to Wei Jinyong’s side and said in a low voice, “Hall Master, the envoy from the headquarters is here. He’s outside!”
Wei Jinyong’s expression turned solemn as he hurriedly said, “Hurry up and follow me out to welcome them! Gather everyone into a line!”
Following which, Wei Jinyong walked out.
Su Wen asked curiously, “Is this envoy that awesome?”
Murong Yan rolled her eyes and said, “Don’t spout nonsense. If others hear you, you’ll suffer. This envoy is the personal attendant of the Sect Master, and he’s also an expert of the sect. Usually, he’s just conveying the Sect Master’s orders! Naturally, we have to show some respect.”
With that, the two of them also left the room.
Upon exiting, they saw that everyone had already gathered together.
Wei Jinyong led a man that looked to be in his thirties, dressed in a black robe, into the courtyard.
“We greet the envoy!”
Everyone shouted in unison.
Su Wen and Murong Yan however remained silent in the crowd.
In any case, he could not differentiate who greeted and who did not anyway.
The envoy nodded in satisfaction.
Such a grand ceremony could greatly satisfy one’s vanity.
To put it bluntly, everyone had a sense of vanity. The feeling of everyone bowing their heads towards you was not bad.
Murong Yan explained to Su Wen, “He’s Zuo Qing, one of the right hand men of the Cult Master. Rumor has it that he has already achieved 5th Grade Earth Rank and is extremely powerful. I wonder what he is here for.”
Zuo Qing and Wei Jinyong entered the room for a private talk.
Su Wen was led away by Murong Yan to arrange a place to stay.
There was no such thing as an individual house here.
Su Wen was simply placed on a large bunk.
That was all they offered.
Although Su Wen was extremely unhappy, he still endured it. Fortunately, the bedding was new, and it gave Su Wen some comfort.
He also learned a lot about the Moon Worship Sect from Murong Yan.
Other than the Cult Master, there were four other envoys by his side. They were all experts like Zuo Qing.
There were seven halls in the sect, each with different numbers.
And among the ordinary disciples, a Star Rank expert would be considered to have a higher status.
In the Moon God Hall where he was at, there were thousands of Common Rank martial artists, but only 79 Star Rank experts.
Su Wen pondered for a moment. From the strength on paper, this Moon Worship Sect was much stronger than the team led by a Golden Saber Deacon in the Martial Inspectorate!
Xue Wanjun’s strength was unknown to him, but he knew that his cultivation was above 4th Grade Earth Rank. As for Ruan Ze, on the surface, his cultivation was around the 3rd Stage Earth Rank, but he definitely had hidden some of his strength. Together with the other two Silver Saber Deacons, he only had a total of four Earth Rank experts!
However, after careful calculation, the seven hall masters, four envoys, and the Cult Master added up to at least 12 experts at the Earth Rank!
In addition, there were still a multitude of Star Rank and Common Ranked martial artists. If both sides fought a decisive battle, then it was not enough to just send one Golden Saber Deacon’s team in!
Murong Yan smiled and said, “Brother Qiang, stay here for a while. You’re already a 9th Grade Common Rank martial artist. As long as you can break through to the Star Rank, you’ll be able to get an individual residence!”
Su Wen smiled and agreed.
As for Zuo Qing and Wei Jinyong, they chatted until dinner time.
In this large courtyard, not only did the martial artists live together, there was also a specialized canteen.
Su Wen went in and realized that the food was not bad. There was wine, meat, rice, and noodles. It was like a buffet. He could get whatever he wanted to eat.
The atmosphere in the canteen was extremely lively. To these people, drinking and bragging was their greatest entertainment.
Zuo Qing and Wei Jinyong sat alone at a table with food and wine in front of them. They chatted as they ate.
The atmosphere was pretty good.
Su Wen ate his food as his eyes darted around.
Suddenly, he stood up and walked towards Zuo Qing and Wei Jinyong’s table.
Arriving in front of Wei Jinyong, Su Wen cried out in pain, “Hall Leader Wei! I’m very disappointed!”
His voice was loud, and he even infused True Qi into it.
In an instant, the entire dining hall fell silent. Everyone looked at Su Wen and no one knew what he was up to.
Wei Jinyong frowned. “What are you doing? What are you disappointed about?”
Su Wen said loudly, “I’m very disappointed. All of you enjoy the food that the Cult Master has given, but you all only care about your own pleasure. Have you ever placed the Master in your heart?”
Everyone: “????”
What language was this person using?
Wei Jinyong was also a little confused. “What do you mean?”
Su Wen was filled with righteous indignation and his face was flushed red as if he had been injected with chicken blood. He questioned, “Even though I just joined the cult today, I was convinced by Cult Master’s magnanimity and bearing! My heart has always maintained my respect for Cult Master and my respect for him.
Just a moment ago, I ate a mouthful of meat, and deeply appreciated that all of this was given to me by Cult Master. I have a sincere heart and wish for Cult Master to enjoy life forever and live as long as the heavens. However, look at all of you, all of you only know how to enjoy yourselves. Wouldn’t this be disrespectful and impolite to the Cult Master?!”
The people here were all uncultured people with strong auras of the pugilistic world. When had they ever seen such a shameless fellow who was so experienced in boot-licking?
Everyone was dumbfounded.
Even Wei Jinyong didn’t know how to respond.
However, amusement flashed across Zuo Qing’s eyes as he asked, “In your opinion, what should we do?”
Su Wen said loudly, “I suggest that from today onwards, everyone should shout before eating: Thank you, Cult Master, for giving us food, thank you for protecting us, thank you, Cult Master, for letting us live. Cult Master Hong will enjoy eternal happiness and live as long as the heavens!”
“Dammit, what a stupid c*nt…”
“Is there something wrong with this person?”
“Where did this fool come from?”
“I really want to f*cking kill him!”
At the end of the day, there were many disciples like Su Wen who were forced into the sect.
No matter how much respect they claimed to have for their leader, it was pure nonsense.
There was also a portion that was purely attracted by Moon Worship Sect’s methods and wanted to obtain benefits. As for their impression of this sect master, it was only at the surface.
Of course, there were also a small portion of people who were truly loyal to the sect master. However, even though they were loyal, these men really were a bit unwilling to call out such corny words.
Which type of people are the most hated in general?
People who were high profile!
That’s right, this kind of people usually did not care about other people’s thoughts and only wanted to express themselves. Now, Su Wen was undoubtedly doing this kind of thing.
Wei Jinyong did not know what to say!
Overrule? Zuo Qing was by his side, if he were to reject it and the Sect Leader heard about this, what would happen?
As for Zuo Qing, it was even more so. If even Wei Jinyong didn’t say anything, could he say no?
If he were to reject this suggestion in front of so many people and word got out, wouldn’t he be disrespecting the Sect Master?
A sly look flashed past Su Wen’s eyes.
Of course he did it on purpose!
He just wanted to disgust this bunch of disciples!
To Su Wen, this was a godsend opportunity!
It was a great opportunity to gain Emotional Value!
According to Su Wen’s experience, although the system allowed him to obtain all points from kinds of emotions, overall speaking, the difficulty of obtaining negative emotions was much easier than obtaining positive emotions.
Think about it. Which was easier to make someone like you or hate you?
