Li Jiangan, seeking an audience with the Grand Tutor!
In the darkness, Li Jiangan's voice echoed through the night sky. Behind him, a group of people also called out loudly.
Wang Dagang, seeking an audience with the Grand Tutor!
Li Chunyi, seeking an audience with the Grand Tutor!
...
The voices of dozens of people converged into one, exploding across the night sky!
"You all are truly being unreasonable."
A voice filled with helplessness emanated from within the courtyard, and the main gate opened automatically.
The voice was deep and hoarse, yet the enunciation was clear, and the feeling conveyed by the voice instantly calmed the mind. This was the Grand Tutor's unique charm.
In the large courtyard, the Grand Tutor, clad in a white robe, sat in his armchair. His hair was tied up and secured with a wooden hairpin. His hair and beard were all white, exuding an air of immortal grace.
"Greetings, Grand Tutor."
After entering the courtyard, Li Jiangan, Wang Dagang, and the others bowed respectfully. This Grand Tutor had devoted his everything to Great Xia. After finally retiring, he was able to lead his own life.
However, he rarely left this courtyard. All his food and other necessities were purchased by his steward.
The Grand Tutor stroked his beard and smiled slightly, "Are you all here together because of Ye Longlin's matter?"
Li Jiangan nodded. "Yes, Grand Tutor. The capital is too chaotic now. Tang Long is incompetent for the task. He speaks carelessly before even graduating from the military academy, and after gaining supporters, he has begun to target Marshal Ye's former subordinates. His ambitions are glaringly obvious.
No one knows his talent in military affairs, but what we are clear about now is that he is skilled at manipulating power. If the military falls into his hands, it will surely be a disaster for the armed forces!"
"The Hall of Glory stands above worldly affairs and seems to not concern itself with these matters, or perhaps it is waiting for the outcome of tonight. The inner court elders also have to consider the direction from below. Before, Elder Er could suppress them, but now that Elder Er has passed away, there is almost no one who can control them.
After our discussions, we can only ask you, Grand Tutor, to intervene. We hope that you can restore peace to the military."
The Grand Tutor shook his head. "Amitabha, I cannot help with this matter. Please return, all of you."
Li Jiangan was anxious!
"Grand Tutor, you cannot say that. Although you have lived in seclusion since your retirement, so many things have happened. You must step in to mediate. Today, the Wu family and the Ye family are joining forces against Marshal Ye. If Marshal Ye cannot defeat them, the consequences will be unimaginable!
If Marshal Ye is defeated, the remaining soldiers led by Yuan Gang on the eastern battlefield will surely perish. Moreover, Yuan Gang in the capital's prison will also surely die. After Yuan Gang's death, the Dragon Pavilion will be headless. If this news spreads overseas, the overseas defense line will collapse, and then we will be in serious trouble!"
This was also true. Yuan Gang was not only the commander of the eastern frontier but also the King of Kaoshan. Furthermore, he was the acting Pavilion Master of the Dragon Pavilion. Once Yuan Gang died, the chain reaction would be the most troublesome issue!
After all, Yuan Gang was backed by Ye Longlin, and the Dragon Pavilion was founded by Ye Longlin. No one could say what changes would occur within the Dragon Pavilion at that time!
If all these people returned to the country, the consequence would be the direct abandonment of the overseas defense line and chaos in the capital!
This was also the final stage of this matter's development, but it was not yet certain. The final outcome had not yet emerged.
"Amitabha, if this matter reaches its conclusion and unfolds as you describe, I will intervene."
The Grand Tutor smiled slightly, looking at them, a smile appearing at the corner of his lips.
These meritorious old generals had not come for Ye Longlin, but for what Ye Longlin represented. If Ye Longlin's lineage all fell, the consequences would be very troublesome. One must know that what this matter represented was not that simple.
If Ye Longlin fell, then the Dragon Pavilion behind him, hundreds of thousands of Dragon Pavilion soldiers, would surely fall. At that time, with such a large loophole appearing in the overseas defense line, it would be absolutely impossible to mend.
With such a large base of martial artists, unless the entire personnel of the Martial Arts Association were utilized.
"Thank you, Grand Tutor."
Li Jiangan was also well aware of what this matter represented. Therefore, even if he had killed Zhang Maochao today, he had to appear here to secure a promise from the Grand Tutor.
At least, if such a thing were to happen tonight, they would have the Grand Tutor to fall back on, and they would not panic.
"In that case, we will not disturb your cultivation, Grand Tutor. We shall take our leave."
The Grand Tutor nodded.
After they left, the Grand Tutor looked up at the sky, a smile appearing at the corner of his lips.
"The general's star is shining brightly; how could that young man die?"
Ye Longlin was unaware of the Grand Tutor's existence; he was simply too low-key.
Many people believed he had already died, but they never expected him to still be alive.
And living quite well.
Capital Prison.
Upon receiving news from Fengye Avenue, Qin Wudao took a deep breath, his gaze shifting towards the road outside, his eyes narrowing.
"Is Master worried that Ye Longlin will attack?"
Li Qingsong chuckled softly, holding a cup of coffee in his hands, and took a sip. He followed Qin Wudao's gaze towards the road outside.
"Are you being too cautious? It is said that Ye Longlin took a sword from Ji Anliu. The God-Slaying Sword from Mingjian Mountain Villa is not that simple."
Indeed, that sword from Mingjian Mountain Villa was not that simple. One must know that the swords from Mingjian Mountain Villa were not that simple, and many people had died under the God-Slaying Sword of Mingjian Mountain Villa, and these people were all figures of the God-Sealing level.
"Marshal Ye withstood that sword. No one knows exactly what happened, but you should know that above us, there are still six Saints. If these six Saints were to act, Marshal Ye would be in trouble."
It was unclear if he was injured now, which made things very troublesome.
Li Qingsong said indignantly, "How many people in the country now stand with Ye Longlin? Moreover, he is about to be removed from the roster. Do you really think he can defy heaven? Marshal Tang has the momentum of the times, and he should be a stepping stone for Marshal Tang!"
"I don't know why the Warden is standing with Ye Longlin, but in my opinion, Ye Longlin is definitely not going to make it. In any case, I don't think he will see tomorrow's sun."
"To put it crudely, even if Ye Longlin were standing in front of me right now, I would dare to point at his nose and curse him. I don't understand why you insist on standing with Ye Longlin. Going against the general trend has never ended well. Warden, if I were you, I would choose Marshal Tang, not Ye Longlin!"
