Chapter 1020: Deacon Elder's Negotiation

"Ding ling ling..."

The urgent sound startled He Pingsheng, but it didn't last too long.

After about twenty-plus breaths, the peeping person seemed to have stopped because they saw He Pingsheng.

He Pingsheng's face turned black.

After a few more breaths, knocking sounds came from outside the array.

He Pingsheng's spiritual sense boomed out and scanned, and found that the person knocking was the Deacon Elder in the Deacon Hall.

This person couldn't be refused.

He Pingsheng stood up from the cushion, then slowly opened the array and came to the entrance.

"Seen Senior Feng Shishu!" He Pingsheng saluted the elder.

When they first met, this Deacon Elder told him not to call him Elder, but Senior Feng Shishu.

"Hehehe... not bad, not bad!" The Deacon Elder said: "Enter your dojo and talk, this old man has some things he wants to discuss with you!"

"Senior Feng Shishu, please enter!"

He Pingsheng respectfully invited this old man into his dojo.

Surface respect still had to be given, anyway there would be no loss.

After entering He Pingsheng's dojo, the two sat down in the host and guest seats.

The Deacon Elder raised his head and looked at the four-layer array above He Pingsheng's dojo, marveling, and said: "I didn't expect you, Junior Nephew He, to be an array genius, were these arrays set up by you?"

He Pingsheng smiled: "Yes, just first-tier immortal arrays, not worth mentioning!"

"If I didn't set up some arrays, there would always be some flies and dogs wanting to peep at me, with these arrays, I would have an extra layer of protection!"

"What does Senior Feng Shishu think?"

The Deacon Elder's face was a bit ugly: Flies and dogs?

"Hehehe... hehe..." The Deacon Elder laughed dryly and said: "Also... but I remember you, Junior Nephew He, have only been in the Red Lotus Immortal Valley for twenty years, how did you get so many resources, setting up arrays and immortal talismans? This must cost quite a few immortal crystals, right?"

He stared at He Pingsheng.

He Pingsheng was calm and composed: "Senior Feng Shishu, you are wrong!"

"Wrong?" The Deacon Elder was stunned: "What does Junior Nephew He mean?"

He Pingsheng said: "Little brother didn't enter the Red Lotus Immortal Valley for twenty years, but for more than twenty-eight years!"

"Hi..." The Deacon Elder said: "Is there a difference?"

He Pingsheng didn't answer his question.

The Deacon Elder couldn't help but ask again: "Where did these materials of yours come from?"

"Don't tell me they all came from doing missions, this old man has never seen you do any missions!"

When speaking, the Deacon Elder was very serious.

He Pingsheng said: "Picked them up... little brother went to the mine last time and picked up two pieces of top-tier 【Earth Dragon Blue Gold】..."

"I know this!" The Deacon Elder hurriedly said: "However, two pieces of Earth Dragon Blue Gold absolutely cannot let you obtain so many resources!"

"Who said I only picked up two pieces of top-tier Earth Dragon Blue Gold?" He Pingsheng laughed: "Senior Feng Shishu, let me finish... I not only picked up two pieces of Earth Dragon Blue Gold, but that Qing Xuan also gave me a wood-attribute top-tier immortal sword, and I sold this immortal sword to Senior Sister Su Muyu of the inner sect, only then did I exchange for so many cultivation resources!"

"How is that possible?" The Deacon Elder almost jumped up: "Qing Xuan?"

"How could he possess a top-tier immortal sword, besides, why would he give it to you?"

He Pingsheng said: "I don't know about this... if you don't believe me, you can go ask Qing Xuan!"

"He will definitely give you a satisfactory answer!"

"Humph..." The Deacon Elder snorted coldly and stopped mentioning why He Pingsheng possessed resources, but asked: "I heard from Jing Lei that you beheaded eleven outer sect disciples one after another, is that so?"

"Ah?" He Pingsheng had a confused look: "What is Senior Feng Shishu talking about?"

"When did I kill anyone?"

"You still want to deny it?" The Deacon Elder said: "Just a few days ago, do you dare to say you didn't kill outer sect disciples?"

"Humph... He Pingsheng, I can tell you, killing fellow sect disciples must be paid with life!"

"Just wait to die!"

He Pingsheng was not afraid at all, just said: "Senior Feng Shishu, I am wronged, these few days I have been in the dojo, never went out, how could I kill anyone?"

"Did Jing Lei tell you where I killed people?"

"Used what to kill?"

"Killed how many?"

"Also, why kill?"

"Since Wang Shixiong Jing Lei was on the side, why didn't he stop it? Instead, he ran back to complain?"

He Pingsheng asked several questions in one go, asking the Deacon Elder until he was speechless.

"How about this, Senior Feng Shishu!" He Pingsheng said: "Eleven outer sect disciples died, after all, it's a major matter, I will go to the inner sect to report to 【Law Enforcement Garden】 now, and then you call Wang Shixiong Jing Lei over, and we will confront each other, wouldn't it be clear then?"

While speaking, He Pingsheng actually stood up.

The Deacon Elder was startled.

Just kidding!

If this matter were poked to the Law Enforcement Garden, there would really be no room for maneuver, and investigating deeply wouldn't yield any evidence, instead, it would only expose the ugly things of the outer sect.

"Forget it!" The Deacon Elder's tone finally became a bit calmer: "This seat came to find you this time, not to pursue your responsibility, but to discuss some things with you!"

The reason the Deacon Elder used the crime of harming fellow sect members to suppress He Pingsheng was to gain the initiative in the negotiation.

To suppress He Pingsheng.

Now, the initiative was gone, and he could only show his cards.

"Managing the outer sect is not easy!"

"Among the outer sect disciples, eight or nine out of ten cannot form real combat power, it can be said that these people have no use for the sect!"

"And if they are left to develop, they are just wasting resources!"

"At this time, the entire Red Lotus Immortal Valley is at a life-and-death juncture!"

"You don't know, in recent years, our sect has lost three ascension pools, and two immortal crystal mines!"

"The territory is getting smaller and smaller, and it has even reached the juncture of life and death!"

"At this time..." The Deacon Elder turned around and stared at He Pingsheng: "Only by tightening resources can we... but we can't blatantly reduce the supply of disciples, so I can only think of this method to curb the cultivation of those outer sect disciples!"

"Jing Lei is a tool!"

"He helped me a lot!"

"He is also a hero of the entire Red Lotus Immortal Valley!"

"Now he was forced into the inner sect by you, tell me, how will the outer sect run later?"

He Pingsheng smiled.

This rhetoric seems reasonable, but it's just defending himself.

For the good of the sect?

So I oppress and exploit outer sect disciples?

Dog-fart logic!

A little bit of resources leaking from the inner sect disciples' fingers is enough for the outer sect disciples to cultivate, right?

"Jing Lei is gone!" The Deacon Elder said bluntly: "In the future, you sit in Jing Lei's position?"

"Will you do it?" ===== CHAPTER 1021 =====
