Chapter 237: Uncovering the False Mask of Qingyun League
But the Second Elder did abandon them and run away, this is an indisputable fact.
Liu Ruyan herself was not good at speaking, and for a moment she didn't know how to explain.
After thinking for a long time, she could only say dryly: "The most urgent thing is for you to recover from your injuries."
But the sect disciple was extremely stubborn and looked at Liu Ruyan eagerly, as if he could not accept this situation.
Although the others didn't say anything, their eyes were secretly on Liu Ruyan, expecting her to respond.
Looking at the hopeful eyes of so many people, Liu Ruyan thought of the cruel and inhumane things done by the Qingyun League that she had seen in the illusion, and for a moment, she didn't know what to say.
She had long been extremely disappointed with the Qingyun League, but she couldn't bear to disappoint the disciples of the Qingyun League.
"There's nothing not to say."
Just as Liu Wuyan was struggling, Su Chen's voice came from behind.
As he spoke, all eyes were on him.
Su Chen's heroic challenge to the Purple Kirin was still fresh in everyone's mind, so when they saw him coming, they subconsciously regarded him as a hero.
Many people's eyes were filled with envy and admiration.
If Su Chen hadn't delayed time, they would have surely died.
"The second elder of your sect really abandoned you and left on his own."
After Su Chen said this, everyone gasped.
Although this is a clear fact, they have lived in Qingyun League for so long that everyone has long regarded this place as their home.
So when Su Chen said this very directly, they all felt like they had been abandoned and became homeless wanderers.
Several people in the crowd had their brows tightly knitted together, with a hint of sadness in their eyes.
Although this was the fact, and the Second Elder was also a hypocritical person, Liu Ruyan still felt that Su Chen was being too cruel to others by saying it so directly.
Maybe it could be more tactful.
But people cannot live in falsehood all their lives, they still have to face what they should face.
"I know that each of you regards Qingyun League as your home, so you are very sad after being abandoned."
Su Chen smiled slightly and glanced at everyone present.
Several people were at a loss as to what to do with his gaze, not knowing what he was up to.
"But I want to ask everyone here, how many people would abandon their family and leave? Most of you here have lived for decades, so you will understand this truth."
As soon as these words were spoken, a few more intelligent people were enlightened, but most people were still immersed in the past and did not understand.
Seeing that his words had worked, Su Chen continued, "Since they don't consider you as family, why do you have to feel sad for unnecessary people?"
That's right. Others don't care about you, but you care about them to death. In the end, you are the only one who gets hurt. However, there are still some people in the crowd who are not convinced and whispered back, "It's easy for you to say that. You are not from the Qingyun League, so how do you know how we live here?"
"It's only the Second Elder who is like this, not everyone is like this. We can't generalize."
"If you hadn't saved us, we wouldn't be listening to you say these meaningless words here. My feelings for the sect cannot be denied by your few words, and I believe the sect treats us the same way."
Naturally, Su Chen expected these rebuttals.
After all, they had lived in the Qingyun Alliance for so long, and they still supported the Qingyun Alliance in their hearts.
But Su Chen suddenly realized just now that if he wanted to retake the Qingyun League, it was impossible for him to slaughter all the members of the Qingyun League. What was the difference between that and exterminating the entire family?
Although Su Chen himself has no sense of morality, he cannot do such a cruel and inhumane thing as it is no different from that of an evil cultivator.
Moreover, if I act in such a high-profile manner, I will probably be boycotted by all the orthodox sects. Although my words are a little exaggerated now, it is not a good deal anyway.
"You actually believe in your own sect so much, then take a look at this."
As Su Chen spoke, he took out the photo-retaining bead from his storage ring.
This photo-recording bead had been specially processed by him long before. All the information related to himself was blocked, and he could only vaguely hear information related to the Qingyun Alliance.
As soon as the image-keeping beads appeared, everyone's faces looked uglier than if they had eaten shit.
Just looking at the mummy, people who know the situation know how vicious the act was.
In order to increase credibility, Su Chen took out the jade letter again, still erasing all the information about himself, and the seal of Qingyun Sect was clearly printed on it.
This kind of seal cannot be forged by other sects, even if Su Chen can defeat the Purple Qilin, he cannot do it.
So, everything Su Chen said was true.
"I won't comment on the dirty things that a sect did behind the scenes, but do you really think that a sect that can do such things deserves to be called a family? Will you treat you the same way after you are no longer of any use?"
The things that the Qingyun Alliance did were so vicious that they would not even do it to a stranger.
At this moment, the few people who had just spoken for the Qingyun Alliance fell silent.
After all, they can be abandoned at a time like this. If they can be abandoned today, they will definitely be abandoned in the future. If they are no longer of any use, will they also be squeezed dry of their last bit of value like those mummies?
"In fact, we have just obtained the Purple Thunder Herb, so there is no need to come back to save you. For us, saving you is a completely unprofitable deal. After all, you have all witnessed the cultivation level of the Purple Qilin. We can leave safely, so why risk our lives to fight him?"
Su Chen's voice reached everyone's ears. He did not deliberately increase the volume, but at this moment it was particularly clear and powerful, like a thousand-pound weight hitting everyone's heart.
Everyone was silent, with serious expressions on their faces, as they were carefully thinking over Su Chen's words.
"I am willing to stay with you, not for anything else, but simply for the spirit of not giving up on everyone in this time of crisis."
Liu Ruyan was the first to express her opinion.
She had just been standing there silently without saying anything, but now that she had started something, she immediately received responses from several people around her.
"The Saint is right. The sect has become like this. What they are doing is simply against the will of heaven. If I am of no use to them, this will be my fate in the future."
