Chapter 4599: Trouble

Upon hearing this, Hao’er then nodded, ‘Well, that’s it for today! You guys read a book or practice your calligraphy, Big Brother is going out for a bit and will be back later.’

‘Big Brother is going out? Not taking us with him?’ Muchen asked.

‘I’m not going out of the clan, I’ll just quietly go and check on the situation for a while and come back later, you guys don’t want the door, I’ll leave Silver Wolf here with you.’ Hao’er said, looking towards the silver wolf resting on the corner of the wall, he gave a word of explanation, then he went out of the courtyard by himself.

There in the Patriarch’s main hall, the other Venerable Masters and Peak Masters who did not know that Hao’er had promised the Patriarch and several Elders their advancement pills were at that moment in a state of disbelief and anger.

‘Patriarch, those three children cannot stay in our clan, they have to be expelled.’

‘Not bad, it was just that we didn’t know that they were that ghost doctor’s children earlier, but now that we know and the news has spread, if we keep them here, it will only cause endless trouble for our sect, since we can’t make a move against those three children, it’s not too much to drive them out, right?’

‘Yes Patriarch, we don’t need to hitch our clan for three unrelated children, not to mention, they have a Super Sacred Beast protecting them, even if we let them leave, the average person outside won’t be able to get close to them, since that’s the case, why bother keeping them in our clan?’

‘Patriarch, let them leave!’

‘Elders, you guys persuade the Patriarch! We are not related to those three children, why should we take our sect’s elite disciples for them? In the past two days, disciples have guarded the mountain gate to prevent those people from sneaking into the sect, and a dozen or so disciples have already died, if this continues, when will it end?’

Listening to the Venerables and Peak Masters sitting in the hall, the Patriarch was a bit distracted, he frowned and swept them away, saying, ‘That Ghost Doctor Feng Jiu is the Monarch of Heaven and Earth, and his reputation has spread far and wide! Now that their children have come here and there is no one to protect them, since we have stumbled upon them and it so happens that the people are here in our sect, how can we push them out? What’s more, it’s still three children that young.’

He glanced at the crowd and said in a deep voice, ‘If it’s really as you all said, pushing the three children outwards, if they were to encounter danger out there, would you all be able to have peace of mind? What’s more, at this point, even if we push them out and let them leave our sect, could it be true that they have nothing to do with our sect?’

‘This matter is already one that we have chosen to protect, then we have to protect it to the end! Today, I’ll put my words here, no matter what kind of things happen, we have to protect them!’ The Patriarch said, his voice lulled as he looked towards the seated Elder and said, ‘Grand Elder, how is the enquiry about that inquiring news going?’

The Grand Elder shook his head and said, ‘During this half a month’s time, there were a hundred and ten people who came up to our clan, I have also asked and probed them one by one, most of them are people with wrong intentions, wanting to take the three children away straight away, but there is a travelling cultivator who has an unfathomable strength and is said to come from elsewhere as well, and now he has already been settled in the guest house. ‘

‘Patriarch, those people at the bottom of the mountain, let me lead the people to expel them!’ The Third Elder stood up and spoke, ‘I will be able to guard the mountain gate and not allow a single one of them to come up!’

‘Good!’ The Patriarch said, slapped his thigh and said, ‘I’m very relieved that you’ll be the one to do this, if there’s any need to mobilise the disciples, you’ll mobilise them directly!’ Saying that, he handed him a token.

Seeing the Patriarch even handing over the token to the third elder, the look sitting underneath moved slightly, wanting to speak but asking nothing.
