Chapter 3252: Just Here to Go Through the Motions
Therefore, whether or not to hand over the Third Elder depends on whether the major clans are willing to relent.
"You go back first, the rest will be settled with you later!" she said.
"Yes, Sect Master."
With the Sect Master’s words, the Third Elder finally let out a long sigh and swiftly turned to leave.
"Sect Master, I fear the Third Elder...
Once she left, the remaining Elder frowned and looked at the Sect Master, not believing the Third Elder could possibly be spared.
The major clans are not easy to deal with; to survive, you have to be willing to let go. The Third Elder surely can’t stay, to keep her would mean they’d all die.
"Sect Master, if you hesitate, it’ll bring harm; the Third Elder cannot stay," said another Elder.
The Third Elder has soft ears and is selfish. If she hadn’t been focused solely on herself and secretly went to the Saintess Sect to inquire, Qinglan Sect wouldn’t have ended up in such a predicament.
Moreover, they believe the Third Elder cannot be protected at all.
"Alas."
The Sect Master knows all too well the situation and can only sigh deeply.
"You two, keep a close watch on the Third Elder, and if necessary, immediately take her down," she instructed.
Indeed, she was too softhearted earlier. The Third Elder simply can’t stay; she should’ve known the outcome when she went to the Saintess Sect’s territory seeking information.
This fool is indeed foolish enough; why go personally to investigate when sending a Disciple would suffice?
And now it’s come to this, where she’s become entangled beyond rescue.
She doesn’t want to say much; as long as Qinglan Sect can distance itself from the Saintess Sect’s affair, losing one Elder seems trivial.
...
Meanwhile, Qinglan Sect has tied up all the Saintess Sect’s disciples.
On the other hand, news naturally leaked from the Qing Family, who upon receiving it, hurriedly dispatched people over. By the time other major clans arrived, the Qing Family’s Great Elder and clan guards had also shown up.
"Well damn!"
Seeing the clan guards in various colored clothing surround Qinglan Sect tightly, couldn’t help but curse.
"These Saintess Sect disciples have become so valuable now, look at the spiritual vigor of these people, tsk tsk."
He clicked his tongue twice, thinking he was just following the Family Head’s orders to make an appearance, otherwise catching some Saintess Sect disciples among so many major clans would indeed be difficult.
"Great Elder, what now?" the clan guards following the Great Elder were also a bit dumbfounded.
They anticipated many people but didn’t expect so many; it’s now comparable to when they went to rescue people from the desert before, even more in number.
"We’re just here to make an appearance, remember, just follow along without standing out, but also don’t do nothing at all. We should symbolically strive for what we can,"
The Great Elder coughed lightly, instructing the clan guards beside him.
They didn’t bring many people; they’re only fit to follow and put on a show, beyond that there’s really nothing they could do.
If it weren’t to show the Qing Family wanting a share, he wouldn’t have wanted to come at all; there’s enough family matters, why bother for just a few Saintess Sect disciples?
Having these major clans is more than enough.
