C564 If you don't die, who will?
"It's not just one stone and two Su Ye. What do you mean by that?" The Zhu Clan's ancestor knitted his eyebrows as he asked this question, while the others also turned to look at him.
Even though Su Ye was being stared at by them, he did not feel any pressure. He smiled lightly, and his expression was still playful: "My meaning is very simple, the Huangfu Family is about to make a move against you six great families."
Hearing this, the face of the Zhu Family's ancestor changed, his expression turning even darker.
A trace of displeasure flashed across the eyes of the Wu Family ancestor, he snorted: "Su Ye, your words are a bit of a scam, right?"
Although the six great families chose to cooperate with Su Ye because of his intervention. However, the two sides had no relationship at all. Even though it was said that karma had resolved the grudge, how could those dark emotions disappear just like that?
Su Ye had a grudge with the six great families, it was all because of the Wu family. During the Green Cloud Test, Su Ye killed many people from the six great families. Leaving aside the Seven Stars Sect's collaboration, the Wu Clan Ancestor did not have any good impression of Su Ye. He did not like Su Ye to begin with.
And what Su Ye had said just now, to the ears of the Wu Family ancestor, was even more shocking, and even a little provocative.
From the Wu Ancestor's point of view, although the six great clans and the Huangfu Clan were fighting each other for the benefit of the Seven Stars Immortal School, and had secretly gotten into a conflict, the six great clans still belonged to the Qing-Yun Sect. The Huangfu Clan was the core of the existence of the Qing-Yun Sect, and both sides had the mutual interest of harming the other.
Furthermore, the six great clans' status in Qing-Yun Sect was not low, so no matter what, the Huangfu Clan would not kill the six great clans. The Huangfu Clan secretly suppressing the six great clans was not the same as directly killing the six great clans.
The Huangfu clan secretly suppressed the six great clans to a certain extent, keeping the six great clans from rising up. At the same time, the six great clans resisted the Huangfu clan's suppression to a certain extent.
Things like this were not rare in the entire Qing-Yun Sect, so everyone silently followed this bottom line.
Once the Huangfu clan truly tried to kill the six great clans, it would completely cross this line. Not only would the six great clans resist, the other forces similar to the six great clans would not sit idly by.
How foolish must the Huangfu Family be to do such a thing as destroying the Great Wall?
"Alarmist? Hehe, I think you're the one that's a bit careless, Old Ancestor Wu? " Su Ye curled his lips, and mocked in disdain.
Ancestor Wu said with a snort, "That's good. Su Ye, tell us this in front of us. Why do you think that the Huangfu Family wants to kill us six great families?"
Su Ye smiled blandly, "Do you need me to say this? The reason is obvious, but you guys are not obedient?"
"You …" Ancestor Wu was very dissatisfied with Su Ye's simple answer. What do you mean by not obeying?
Su Ye ignored him and spoke with poise: "I don't know much about the Huangfu Family, but I think that sometimes, the Huangfu Family is much deeper than you guys who depend on the Huangfu Family. Because I'm an outsider, a person who sees the situation clearly, you can't deny that."
Su Ye's eyes swept across the crowd. It was obvious that other than Ancestor Wu who was a little unconvinced, everyone else had to accept Su Ye's words.
"Then in my opinion, what kind of family is the Huangfu Family? First of all, it is a Venerable family clan, and it has a history that other powers cannot compare with. This kind of history gives the Huangfu family an unimaginable amount of pride and confidence. For a force or clan like yours who relied on the Huangfu Family to thrive and grow, whether you accept it or not, you are nothing more than dogs in the eyes of the Huangfu Family. "
"Su Ye, you bastard. We six great clans are not dogs, speak less with such a desecrating and disdainful tone." Ancestor Wu was furious, and a trace of his aura immediately flowed out. If Su Ye dared to speak any more nonsense, he would turn against Su Ye, since he had already been killed by the Seven Devils of Black Rock.
The Zhu Family Patriarch said in a deep voice, "Old Wu, don't be agitated. Listen to Su Ye."
The six clans had always followed the lead of the Zhu Family, and the words of the Zhu Family's ancestor had a great impact on Patriarch Wu. Patriarch Wu let out an angry snort, then retracted his aura.
Su Ye did not mind, and continued in a harsh tone: "Since it's a dog, then to the person who raises the dog, if the dog disobeys, and is not loyal to the master, then there's no meaning in raising the dog. It would be better to just cook a meal of dog meat to eat."
The moment he said that, Ancestor Wu exploded on the spot and scolded: "Su Ye, this old man truly suspects that you grew up to not be beaten to death. Do you really think that with Su Qingwu's protection, you can be so reckless?"
The other Patriarchs all had unfriendly looks in their eyes.
Even Wan Fang was tugging at Su Ye, indicating that he should not be so harsh on her. In front of the Heavenly Immortal Ancestor, he was just acting like a dog in front of him, not giving him any face at all.
It was only the Zhu Family's ancestor who had a dark expression on his face. He did not seem to be angry, but instead said in a rational tone, "Su Ye, what you said makes sense, but you do not understand the inner sect, nor do you truly understand the way the Qing-Yun Sect exists. The Qing-Yun Sect has the Huangfu Family as its core, but in the end, there is not only one Huangfu Family."
Su Ye laughed out loud. "That's where your confidence lies, right? You guys feel that the Qing-Yun Sect is formed from the combination of the Huangfu Family and various other powers that rely on the Huangfu Family, and you guys are the majority compared to them. The Huangfu Family can't possibly make a move against you, right?"
"Isn't it?" The Zhu Family elder asked.
Su Ye laughed, and did not say whether it was true or not, but asked a seemingly unrelated question: "Have you seen a gardener pruning flowers and plants?"
Everyone was taken aback, and seemed to be deep in thought.
Su Ye said: "Nowadays, any family with a bit of background, even if it was a mortal family, would like to plant some flowers and herbs to enhance their beauty. However, when plants were planted, they needed to be pruned regularly. If they were not pruned regularly, some of the branches and leaves would grow out in a chaotic manner, ruining their original beauty. Therefore, when the gardener was pruning, he would cut off the branches that were scattered everywhere. As long as the root of the plant was not bad, no matter how he cut off the branches, there would be no problem! "
With that, Su Ye said playfully, "Qing-Yun Sect only has this one stalk of grass. Do you think that the Huangfu Clan is the root, or are you the root?"
Hearing this, everyone's faces changed. According to Su Ye's analogy, it was obvious that the Huangfu Family was the root, and the powers that relied on the Huangfu Family to survive were casually cut off their branches and leaves.
"So, don't think so highly of yourselves. The Huangfu Family is still the Huangfu Family without you. Even if we emptied all of you out, we can still create another powerful Qing-Yun Sect, and if you are cut off, you will be nothing but dust on the ground!"
Su Ye's words immediately caused the few Patriarchs' expressions to change, and they didn't feel good about it at all. Although they still felt that Su Ye had spoken alarmingly and had ill intentions in inciting their relationship with the Huangfu Family, they had nothing to say.
Only the Zhu Family's ancestor was still able to maintain his clarity of mind, and retorted, "Su Ye, you are the most crafty person I have ever seen, and you have the guts to provoke us to rebel in front of us. Not to mention whether it is reasonable for you to compare us to flowers and plants, but you should also take it for granted. If your so-called gardener wants to prune flowers and grasses, he should cut off some random branches and leaves, right? "
Su Ye laughed when he heard this.
The laughter was irritating.
After laughing, he said, "Look, this is what I meant by 'the incompetent one'. "Zhu Clan's ancestor, you actually think that the timing is wrong?! This is such a great joke."
"Big joke? "Heh heh, what's so funny about that?" The Zhu Family elder's face also showed a trace of anger.
"How laughable! Very funny! The merger of Yuzhou and Southland meant that the Immortal Cultivation World had arrived into a brand-new era. Furthermore, all the major powers of Yuzhou and the Southern Province had teamed up and killed Nie Fanchen, who viewed the Immortal Cultivation World of the two provinces as the greatest threat to both sides, since the start of this new era. Without the threat of Nie Fanchen, let me ask you this. Who can control the ambitions of the major powers in the Immortal Cultivation World of the two provinces? "
Everyone was speechless.
Su Ye said again, "I don't think so. Then the problem is that you six great families are unwilling to obey for a long time because of the benefits concealed in the Green Cloud Trials. You even fought openly and secretly with the Huangfu Family, hoping that they won't fight for benefits. Then can you still obey when we encounter greater benefits in the future? So if you don't die, who will? "
"As for that Seven Devils of Black Rock, they were originally a force that resided in the outer seas. They hung in the sky alone on a small island, and they seemed to be overweeningly powerful with seven Heavenly Immortals overseeing them. But do you think they are stupid, especially after the incident where Nie Fanchen was killed, do you think they will still think that no one can stop them? "
"There will definitely be a great war between Yuzhou and Nanzhou in the future. The new era will inevitably start with a chaotic situation, so how can a mere Seven Devils of Black Rock avoid this unprecedented chaos? Can't they plan for their future?"
"The Huangfu family threw out an olive branch to them. They have a ready-made backer, so why don't they want it? To the Huangfu Family, the Seven Devils of Black Rock may not be loyal, but at least she is more obedient than you, much more sensible than you. Why not replace you with the Seven Devils of Black Rock? "
"Even if the Huangfu Family doesn't kill your six great families, once Seven Devils of Black Rock who has cultivated the Qing Yun Immortal Scripture officially join the Qing-Yun Sect, what chance do you have to survive?"
After the few Patriarchs heard Su Ye's sarcastic and sarcastic words, their faces all became incomparably pale. They had a faint feeling that they had already been stabbed in the neck, and their bodies turned cold.
