An Tu Nings sneered in her heart, this was her bottom line, Wang Teng probably wouldn’t have dreamed that the Yan Dao Sect had won the top 50.
A long-bearded man sitting not far from An Tu Nings had a cold smile at the corner of his eyes, he had gotten the news the day before yesterday that the Yan Dao Sect had won an unprecedented good result in the Dan River Competition. This Wang Teng only knew how to fight in the nest, and probably never thought that An Tu Nings would get a good result; he didn’t even bother to inquire about it.
However, he didn’t stand up to refute Wang Teng’s words. This Wang Teng had colluded with the two elders and used his power for personal gain, and the disciples he recruited were getting worse year after year. As the Peak Master of the Daoist Transmission Peak, he was the most experienced.
Fei Xuan had just come out of seclusion and was unaware of the results of the Dan Competition of the Yan Dao Sect. He looked at An Tu Neng and said in a somewhat unpleasant tone, “Master An Gu, how about the internal affairs of the sect, we can sit down and talk about them in consultation. Even though my Diffractive Path Sect’s Dan Dao has always lagged behind, matters like the Great Geng Dan River Dan Competition are not just about the sect’s face, but also about the sect’s right to speak, you are being too hasty this time.”
He didn’t need Wang Teng to spell it out in detail to know that the Diffractive Path Sect wouldn’t do too well. If it was too good, Wang Teng would not have used this matter to speak.
An Tu Neng stood out and said with a fist, “I am very much in agreement with the words of the Patriarch, I think that nastiness between individuals can be put behind before the interests of the sect. However, in order for me to lose this Dan Competition and be punished by the sect, Peak Master Wang went so far as to make all the Dan masters of the sect leave the sect during the Dan Competition. There are only a few Dan masters in my clan, and I can’t even find a single one for the competition. I would like to ask Peak Master Wang, if everyone is like you, is there still a need for my Diffraction Sect to exist?”
Fei Xuan’s face turned increasingly ugly, if Wang Teng dared to do so, then don’t mind him as the sect master being ungracious.
Wang Teng stood up with a face full of injustice, “Patriarch, all the elders and peak masters. I, Wang Teng, am at least a peak master of the Diffraction Sect, and I am even in charge of the disciples’ affairs of the entire sect. Even if I am not good enough, I would not do such a thing. There are only twenty-three dan masters in my clan, because seven months ago, the Yue Ning Mountain opened. It was a big event, so naturally my sect’s dan masters could not lag behind and all headed to the Yue Ning Mountain ……”
It was Fei Xuan who sighed in his heart when he heard these words.
He naturally knew of Yue Ning Mountain, a divine Spirit Herb Medicine Garden Mountain under the name of the Dao Realm Dan a*sociation. Every time the Yue Ning Mountain opened, dan masters registered with the Dan a*sociation could go and collect divine spirit gra*ses for a year.
This kind of thing was beneficial even for the clan, and it was Fei Xuan who could not say anything. Moreover, it was not Wang Teng’s mandate for the clan’s dan masters to go to the Yue Ning Mountain, but a decision made on his own.
However, Wang Teng’s words did not finish as he continued, “I am not belittling Lord An Gu here, but as the person in charge of this Dageng Dan River Dan Competition, Lord An Gu should have taken the initiative to contact these dan masters and ask them to come back. But when it came to nine days before the competition, I actually found that none of the dan masters had returned to the clan. So I got anxious and I hurriedly sent out a message with the help of the clan, asking these dan masters to hurry back because the Dan Competition was about to start.”
Wang Teng smiled to himself as he said this, “This matter was originally the responsibility of Lord An Gu, but since Lord An Gu didn’t make half a move, I could only exceed my authority and call these dan masters back. It’s because at this time, these dan masters who came back are still in time to participate in the Dan Competition.”
Seeming to feel indignant, Wang Teng’s face turned a little ugly, “What angered me was that I had just called all these Dan masters back, and Master An Gu had even ignored these Dan masters and left the sect privately. It was said that she took one of the outer disciples with her. I reckon she was worried that she hadn’t gone to the competition, so she took this outer disciple to casually report for duty and then just came back.”
Hearing Wang Teng speak, not only Fei Xuan, but even some of the peak masters and hall masters who did not understand the truth were somewhat dissatisfied with An Tu Nings. An Tu Nings had brought an outer disciple to the Dan Competition, clearly wanting to do it perfunctorily.
After taking a deep breath, Wang Teng continued, “I have not wronged Lord An Gu, after leaving for a few days, Lord An Gu returned to the sect again. In fact at that time, the Dan Competition was underway and I became increasingly angry. Lord An Gu had obviously taken someone to report for the competition and that was that… My Diffraction Sect is at least one of the five great sects, if everyone was like Lord An Gu, would my Diffraction Sect still have to survive in the Dao Realm?”
“Master An, although the Dan masters of my Diffraction Sect are not as good as those Dan-based sects, there are at least twenty Dan masters. These dan masters went to Yue Ning Mountain to collect medicine, why don’t you call these dan masters back through the sect? Only three Dan masters are needed to participate in the competition, you don’t need to call all of them back, as long as three of them come back, they can also go to the Dao Realm Dan River Competition.”
Fei Xuan just sighed as he said, “Even if you don’t call these dan masters back, and Peak Master Wang called them back for you, you should at least bring a few dan masters to the competition. You asked an outer disciple to compete, just like what Peak Master Wang said, where do you place the sect?”
An elder sitting not far from Fei Xuan said with a sigh, “Lord An Gu has indeed done a poor job in this matter, not only did he casually bring an outer disciple to the competition, he also casually killed my sect’s disciples. Not long ago, Xunbei crossed into the Dao Yuan realm, which is the same as adding another strong person of the second step of the Dao of the testimony to my clan. Lord An Gu’s move, that’s causing a gap between the Xun Family and my Yan Yi Sect.”
An Tu Neng’s heart sank, and she suddenly thanked Di Jiu immensely in her heart. If it wasn’t for Di Jiu helping her move back to One City, I’m afraid that instead of reducing her cultivation resources, her Yan Chun Gu would most likely never be able to sit in the position of Yan Chun Gu’s valley master again, and she would even be punished by the sect for confinement.
This Wang Teng was actually so sinister as to call back the clan’s dan master before she went to compete. This was a clear indication of her inaction.
It was evident that Wang Teng had calculated her long ago, as she was inattentive to the Dao Realm Dan Meeting and had actually not thought of the matter of Yue Ning Mountain. She had gone to call these dan masters back through her own communication beads, but when she went to Yue Ning Mountain, then she had to come back through the clan summons.
Wang Teng had planned this long ago, and she had stepped into the trap without realising it. She knew that Wang Teng had called the dan masters back, not so that these dan masters could go to the competition with her, but in order to beat her to death with a stick today.
“Master An Gu, what else do you have to say?” Fei Xuan looked at An Tu Neng with disappointment, in fact he still had high hopes for An Tu Neng, he did not expect to be so disappointed.
An Tu Nings bowed to the Sovereign, “Sovereign, I forgot about the matter of Yue Ning Mountain because I didn’t know much about the Dan a*sociation. I asked my clan’s dan masters to come back through my personal communication beads, but it turned out that none of them were called back. I knew that these dan masters had a deep relationship with Wang Teng, so I did not bother to call these dan masters. I inquired a lot of messages in order to find the clan’s dan masters to go to the Dan River Grand Competition. Finally, I was able to find a Dan Dao pearl that was left behind in my Diffractive Path Sect ……”
Wang Teng chuckled, “Master An Gu is probably talking about the outer disciple you brought there, right? I wonder how many places this Dan Dao pearl lost in my Diffractive Path Sect has won in this Dao Realm Dan Competition?”
An Tu Nings ignored Wang Teng and still said to the clan master, “In fact it was really a coincidence that I had just brought that outer disciple to the competition when all the dan masters of my clan returned, coincidentally without letting me see them. Luckily, I lived up to my expectations and won the forty-eighth place for my clan in the Dan River Grand Competition. That outer disciple also won the twentieth place in the individual ranking ……”
“What?” Fei Xuan suddenly stood up and even looked at An Tu Ning in some disbelief. As far as he knew, the best ranking of the Diffractive Path Sect in the Dan Competition of the Great Geng Dan River in the past was the 116th place. As for the individual ranking, it was even more disastrous. An Tu Nings now suddenly said that the Yan Dao Sect had obtained the top fifty, how could this not shock him?
Wait, the clan had obtained the top fifty and the individual had obtained the top twenty, didn’t that mean that when it came to the Dao Realm Dan Pulse cultivation, the Diffractive Path Sect had a few spots? And there was a slot for Daoist Ridge enlightenment? One had to know that before this, the disciples of the Diffractive Path Sect had never been to the Dan Vein.
Wang Teng was also stunned, and then he laughed, “Master An Gu, what’s the point of telling such a joke? One only has to check to find out.”
An Tu Nings said coldly, “Wang Teng, you’re right, what’s the point of me making up nonsense about something like this that can be found out with a single check?”
Wang Teng’s heart sank, yes, this kind of thing can be found out at a single check, does An Tu Ning dare to lie?
Without waiting for Fei Xuan to ask, Xue Tiandi, the Peak Master of Chuandao Peak, stood up and with a clasp of his fist, he said, “Sovereign, Elders. I can prove that what Lord An Gu said is all true. My Daoist Sect has indeed placed forty-eighth in this Dao Realm Dan River Competition, and my Dan Master Di Jiu of the Daoist Sect has won the top twenty. I went to congratulate Master An Gu today, but I didn’t expect that Master An Gu had gone to wait for the Sovereign to come out of the gate.”
“Haha ……” Fei Xuan laughed harshly, “Good for you, Master An Gu. You were able to find this outer disciple for my Diffraction Sect under such unfavorable circumstances, it is really a great credit. Good, good ……”
An Tu Neng bowed once again, “This outer disciple clearly has a skill in the Dan Dao, yet he was left at the outer sect. Even if that’s not enough, Xun Moisture even tried to take over this outer disciple’s cave by force, which is why I killed him in a fit of anger. I think the most important thing that needs to be rectified is the sect’s disciple hall. If things continue like this, the disciples recruited by the sect are not as good as one generation.
I believe that if we ask someone to investigate, we will know. Di Jiu and I participated in the Dan Competition together, and I still know his character very well. He is humble, knows how to advance and retreat, does not cause trouble and has a strong sense of clan. Even after making such a great achievement for my clan, he still says he doesn’t need any reward. This kind of disciple, how can he go about killing fellow disciples at will? Besides, can Di Jiu, an outer disciple, kill Xun Qi who has crossed the Yuk Dao?”
