Chapter 29.1
When the dialogue between Qing Yangzi and the old man reached a deadlock, Ye Chen finally spoke.
Ye Chen said loudly: “Sect master, uncle master has a bit of a straight temper, so some words are not very pleasant. But these words that uncle master said are for the good of Taiwei Sect. Sect master, I don’t know but have you noticed that when people in Dongzhou mention the Taiwei Sect, they only know the holy son of the Taiwei Sect but not the sect master of the Taiwei Sect? After the uncle master heard about this, he was heartbroken and rushed back to Taiwei Sect. For the sake of the sincerity of the uncle master, please don’t be too obsessed with those red tapes.”
Hearing this, Qing Yangzi frowned slightly.
In fact, whether this old man is his senior uncle or not, although Qing Yangzi wondered a little, it is expected that no one would come here to pretend to be a senior of such a small sect.
But if you say how much this person cares about Taiwei Sect, that’s not necessarily true.
If he really cared about the future and destiny of Taiwei Sect, he would not have left the sect when the Taiwei Sect was in decline to run out to be a free and easy person.
Today, Taiwei Sect has escaped from the situation of being almost expelled from the list, thanks to the efforts of the current Taiwei Sect disciples, and has nothing to do with this senior uncle who has been missing for an unknown number of years.
At this time, he came back suddenly, and Qing Yangzi was naturally very uncomfortable.
But there is a saying that Ye Chen hit the point.
When the people of Dongzhou mention Taiwei Sect, they only know the holy son of Taiwei Sect, but not the sect master of Taiwei Sect.His sect leader title sounds nice, but in fact, his reputation is not as good as Feng Shao’s, both externally and internally.
What’s more, he once said, “If it wasn’t for the luck of Taiwei Sect to find Feng Shao, this treasure, the Taiwei Sect would have disappeared long ago.”
Although these words are not unreasonable, Qing Yangzi just doesn’t feel very comfortable.
When Taiwei Sect was still in decline, he only wanted to strengthen the sect.
But it’s a pity that his ability is limited.
Under his control, the situation of Taiwei Sect is not better than before, on the contrary, it is getting worse day by day.
It wasn’t until Feng Shao was apprenticed under the sect that Taiwei Sect finally gradually came back to life and became a well-known second-rate Sect in Dongzhou.
However, after the gradual rise of the Taiwei Sect, Qing Yangzi’s mind became active.
He began to want to use Taiwei Sect’s fame and strength to establish himself as a senior in Dongzhou, instead of just hiding behind Feng Shao like a puppet.
But helplessly, there are far more people in the sect who listen to Feng Shao’s words than those who watch and take care of his face as a sect master.
What’s more, his junior brother Qin Zhao and his junior sister Du Yuanxi valued Feng Shao more than him, the senior brother in charge. He even suspected that maybe one day when he woke up, someone would ask him to abdicate and give up the position to Feng Shao directly.
His worry is not groundless, since he can see the early signs.
Once, he went into the Treasure Pavilion and wanted to take away a magic treasure, but unexpectedly, the disciple guarding the Treasure Pavilion said that the matter should be decided by Feng Shao, and he could only take it if he received Feng Shao’s nod of agreement.
It was this matter that made Qing Yangzi feel extremely uncomfortable. He suspected Fengshao had gradually emptied him as the leader, and sooner or later, Feng Shao would have the final say on this sect.
In fact, Feng Shao cannot be blamed for this.
Feng Shao made this rule mainly to prevent the magic treasure in the Treasure Pavilion from being out of count and unusable when needed.
Although the disciple who guards the Treasure Pavilion is a bit stubborn, he can’t blame that disciple, because Feng Shao said earlier that everyone in the entire sect must abide by the rules, no matter what their status is.
As for the fact that the sect leader was emptied, it was purely Qing Yangzi’s own fault.
Feng Shao himself is still a person who respects teachers and the Tao, and attaches great importance to Qing Yangzi’s prestige in Taiwei Sect, so when developing the sect in the early days, Feng Shao deliberately brought his master together with him.
Even if Qing Yangzi doesn’t do anything, at least he can show his presence.
However, many of Feng Shao’s decisions made Qing Yangzi unable to understand, but in the end, they often reaped miraculous results.
In the beginning, Qing Yangzi would come out to show his presence, but when he found that he was basically useless and unable to make any decisions, he directly became the hands-off shopkeeper and handed everything over to Feng Shao did it.
Feng Shao also opposed it at the beginning and hoped that his master could participate more in the reconstruction of the sect. He even almost told his master he was not required to do anything, but only asked him to keep things down.
However, Qing Yangzi’s thoughts were pure and naive. He felt that since he didn’t need to make a lot of decisions by himself, he could simply leave it to Feng Shao to do it, so why did he have to stand out?
So this is the fundamental reason why Qing Yangzi was “empty.” It wasn’t Feng Shao who took the initiative to evacuate him, but he himself voluntarily did it.
