If this isn't a slap in the face, what is?
"Uncle Chi didn't do anything wrong!" a Ruan Family Taoist Lord on the left side of the hall declared with a cold snort. "Ever since Xu Xing rose to prominence, Zhongtai and the others have been solely focused on the glory of the Master and Disciple Lineage. If they were allowed to remain in the Sect, given time, they would undoubtedly become a major disaster!"
"Uncle Chi's agreement with Xu Xing on the 'Dao Splitting into Two Lineages' seemed muddle-headed, giving the Butian Sect a chance to grow. But in reality, it was our Sect sacrificing its own flesh to heal its wounds!"
The cultivators who heard this nodded silently.
If it weren't for the emergence of Xu Xing, the newly ascended Nascent Soul Saint Monarch, Flying Feather Immortal Palace, given time, could have gradually transformed the Dao Lords of the Master and Disciple Lineage into Dao Lords aligned with the Aristocratic Families.
