Supreme Warrior in the City

Chapter 671: Chapter 670: Internal Troubles

Elder Jeang’s face was steely as he gritted his teeth, ”Hu Shanyang, have you forgotten the rules of our Divine Farmer Sect? Colluding with outsiders, injuring our people, and aspiring to usurp the position of Sect Leader. What gives you the right?”

”Elder Jeang, times have changed!” Hu Shanyang sneered, ”The past is the past, and now is now. Do you not see the plight that our Divine Farmer Sect is currently in? Let’s face it, the Divine Physicians Alliance of the Medical Saint Sect essentially aims to swallow up all of our sects. How does the strength of our Divine Farmer Sect compare with those sects? Those sects have been devoured by the Medical Saint Sect without leaving a trace. Are we, the Divine Farmer Sect, destined to follow in their footsteps?”

”You keep going on about the rules of the Divine Farmer Sect, but don’t forget, these rules were laid down by the Patriarch, and the sect itself is also the legacy of the Patriarch!”

”Replacing the Sect Leader could resist the Medical Saint Sect and thus preserve the Divine Farmer Sect. But if we keep stubbornly clinging to the old ways, when the Medical Saint Sect comes knocking, what will we do then? Do we want the legacy left to us by the Patriarch to end in our hands?”

Hu Shanyang’s words immediately garnered praise from many people around.

”Elder Hu is right, the urgent task is to save the Divine Farmer Sect, not to talk about rules!”

”Elder Jeang, even if we change the Sect Leader and break the rules, at most we will be punished. But if we don’t replace the Sect Leader and get swallowed up by the Medical Saint Sect, that will be the day of the Divine Farmer Sect’s doom. Then, we would all be sinners of the Divine Farmer Sect!”

”Timely wisdom makes a capable man. Elder Jeang, why must you be so stubbornly blind?”

The crowd accused him one after another, and Hu Chunyang looked at Elder Jeang with a smug expression.

Elder Jeang clenched his teeth tightly and said in a deep voice, ”Hu Chunyang, don’t think I don’t know what you’re up to. If Yue Qianfeng is willing to help our Divine Farmer Sect, we don’t need to change our Sect Leader at all. His help would suffice, so why the need to change the leader?”

”It’s about attitude!” said a middle-aged man sitting not far away coldly, ”Elder Hu is my friend, the Divine Farmer Sect is not. I am helping Elder Hu, not the Divine Farmer Sect. To fight against the Medical Saint Sect is to gamble with our very lives. If Elder Hu isn’t the Sect Leader of the Divine Farmer Sect, why should I risk life and limb for your sect?”

”Master Yue is right!”

”Elder Jeang, if you were in Master Yue’s position, what would you do?”

”Elder Jeang, if you continue to be so obstinately foolish, you will be the sinner of the entire Divine Farmer Sect!”

As the crowd hurled insults, Elder Jeang’s face grew colder, and he shouted angrily, ”If that’s the case, then you, Hu Chunyang, might as well be the Sect Leader of the Divine Farmer Sect. Why bother asking me!”

”Elder Jeang, becoming the Sect Leader of the Divine Farmer Sect is not as simple as just saying so!” Hu Chunyang said with a smile, ”The Sect Leader of the Divine Farmer Sect has to manage all the sect’s affairs, including the Pill Furnace, including the medicine chambers. I don’t even know where these things are, so how can I claim to be the Sect Leader of the Divine Farmer Sect?”

”After all is said and done, you’re still coveting the Pill Furnace and medicine chambers of the Divine Farmer Sect!” Elder Jeang shouted angrily: ”Hmph, these are secrets known only to the Sect Leader of the Divine Farmer Sect. If I told you these secrets, wouldn’t that mean Yue Qianfeng would also know? Then, wouldn’t all that the Divine Farmer Sect has accumulated over the years be handed over to outsiders? The Medical Saint Sect wishes to annex our Divine Farmer Sect for what reason? Isn’t it for our accumulated assets? Now, you want to willingly give them away? Dream on!”

Hu Chunyang’s expression turned cold as he said icily, ”Elder Jeang, Master Yue is here to help us. Don’t slander him!”

”The minor possessions of your Divine Farmer Sect, how could I, Yue, ever regard them highly!” Yue Qianfeng also said with an arrogant look on his face.

”Since you don’t regard them highly, there’s no need to be in a hurry to know about them!” Elder Jeang said coldly, ”Hu Chunyang, you can be the Sect Leader for now. After the affairs with the Medical Saint Sect are done, I will naturally tell you these secrets!”

Hu Chunyang shouted angrily, ”Elder Jeang, don’t think you can deceive me. These are just empty words from you. Once this matter is over, you will surely go back on your word. Either tell me these secrets now, or I will kill you all and find them myself!”

As Hu Chunyang spoke, he casually waved his hand, and immediately a group of people rushed up, surrounding Elder Jeang and his group in the middle.

”Protect the master!”

Elder Jeang’s loyal disciples urgently shouted, and although everyone was injured, they desperately held their weapons, protecting Elder Jeang and the Fifth Elder in the center.

”Stop!” At that moment, Jeang Zier let out a sharp scream and quickly rushed over.

”Zi’er?” Elder Jeang’s face changed suddenly, ”You... how did you come back?”

Hu Chunyang was startled for a moment, then overjoyed. Using Jeang Zier to pressure Elder Jeang was perfect!

”Zi’er, you’ve come back too!” Hu Chunyang said with a smile, ”Just in time, you can persuade your grandfather to stop being so selfish. At this critical moment of life and death for the Divine Farmer Sect, he remains stubbornly foolish. Isn’t he putting all our ancestors’ legacy at risk?”

Jeang Zier’s face was cold as she walked straight up to Elder Jeang and said angrily, ”The Pill Furnace and medicine chambers of the Divine Farmer Sect have always been known only to the Sect Leader. They are the very foundation of our sect, and if we hand them over to outsiders, what value is left in the existence of the Divine Farmer Sect?”

Hu Chunyang’s expression grew colder as he retorted coldly, ”Zi’er, I’m doing this for the good of the Divine Farmer Sect. I thought you being young would have a better sense of the times. I didn’t expect you to be as blindly obstinate as your grandfather. I had planned that once I became the Sect Leader, I would promise you in marriage to my son. When my son inherits the position of Sect Leader, you’d be the Sect Leader’s wife. Now it seems, that won’t be possible!”

At these words, people on Elder Jeang’s side erupted in anger.

”The cheek of you, Hu, to say such things! Your son is already forty-seven this year, and you’re still thinking of marrying Zi’er? Are all of you from the Hu Family so shameless?”

”You become the Sect Leader, then want your son to be the Sect Leader—is the Divine Farmer Sect a dynasty you wish to claim for your own?”

”Hu Chunyang, you really are shameless, to have conceived such a scheme. What right do you have for us to accept you?”

Jeang Zier, with an icy expression, said aloud, ”Elder Hu, I can manage my own affairs, thank you. Moreover, I have found someone to rescue the Divine Farmer Sect, someone who doesn’t need the Divine Farmer Sect’s Pill Furnace and medicine chambers, nor do they need to break the rules of our sect. In that regard, the person I’ve found is much better than the person Elder Hu has found!”

”You found someone too?” Hu Chunyang looked around and sneered, ”Where is this person you’ve found? Where did you go looking? What kind of person could you possibly have brought? Hmph, you dare compare with me? Do you know who Master Yue is? Can the person you’ve found even compare to Master Yue, a renowned figure on the Earth Rankings?”
