Chapter 1695: Killed in the bud
The owner of this cave is none other than Elder Ai, the chief elder of the Danyunfeng Elders' House.
Elder Ai has profound seniority and status far beyond ordinary elders. Even the hall masters must treat him with courtesy when they see him.
At this moment, in Elder Ai's cave, there was not only Elder Ai, but also another old man - Hall Master Li, the person in charge of the Affairs Hall.
"Li Dong, you have made such a big deal out of this matter now. It's difficult to take it back."
Elder Ai is a small, gray-haired old man with sharp eyes like an eagle. After listening to Li Dong's report, he shook his head and said.
He originally didn't agree with Li Dong using Dan Yunfeng's public opinion to mess with Su Chen, but because Li Dong was his favorite direct disciple, he turned a blind eye and let it go.
Li Dong did it.
But he didn't expect that Li Dong's operation failed to achieve the expected goal. Instead, he was unable to get off the tiger, so he had to run to Elder Ai's cave to ask for help.
"Brother Ai, you can't blame Dong'er for this. If you do, blame Su Chen for being too unruly. In any case, Dong'er, as the number one disciple in Tianzi District, deserves respect, and Na Su Chen
But Chen Chen didn't go up or down, and contradicted him in public. In any case, no wonder Dong'er was angry about this."
However, Hall Master Li disagreed with Elder Ai's words and spoke out to defend his grandson.
"Brother Li, what do you think we should do now? Let Li Dong challenge Su Chen and compete in alchemy? If Li Dong loses, his ten years of fame will be in vain."
Elder Ai said calmly.
"Well, after all, it's Hall Master Mu who is causing trouble there. If he hadn't strongly advocated setting up two alchemy positions among the four new positions in Tianzi District this time, Su Chen might not have done it at all.
If you can't enter the Supreme Zone, there won't be so many things."
Hall Master Li sighed, but he blamed Hall Master Mu.
If Hall Master Mu was here, he would probably be glaring immediately. What does this have to do with him? Wasn't it Li Dong's fault?
"Brother Li, you are deceiving yourself and others when you say this. This time, the new position in Tianzi District, even if Hall Master Mu does not advocate it, will at least have an alchemy position. Then Su Chen is in the alchemy path
If he gets full marks in the competition, even if there is only one position, it will be his, which means he will definitely enter the Tianzi District."
Elder Ai also disapproved of Hall Master Li's behavior of "passing the blame", "I think that when things have developed to this point, it is not suitable for us as elders to intervene too much.
. Let the young people solve it on their own. The outcome will depend on their own abilities."
"Brother Ai, the problem is that the current situation is already unfair to Dong'er!"
Hall Master Li was also anxious, "Dong'er is the number one person in Tianzi District. If he wins, no one will think anything of it, and it can't prove that Su Chen is a parallel importer. But if Dong'er loses,
, it is bound to be ridiculed by others, which is completely unfair."
Elder Ai shook his head slightly, not agreeing with Hall Master Li's way of protecting the calf.
At that moment, Elder Ai did not continue to say anything to Hall Master Li, but turned to Li Dong.
"Li Dong, do you think it would be fair to you if you compete with Su Chen in Dan Dao?"
Elder Ai asked.
"I……"
Li Dong hesitated and said, not knowing what his master meant by asking this.
"Li Dong, I have watched you grow up as my teacher since I was a child. If you want to practice martial arts and learn alchemy, my teacher will give you my full support and teach you everything you can. Your talent is indeed great, but at the same time, you also
Don’t forget that your origin and identity have also brought you great convenience. Your ability to get to where you are today is inseparable from your origin. This is very important to other Danyunfeng people.
Is it also unfair to his disciples?"
Elder Ai said, "So, if you complain about unfairness at this time, you will make me feel disappointed."
The face of Hall Master Li on the side changed slightly, and he opened his mouth to say something, but Elder Ai raised his hand to signal him not to speak, while still looking at Li Dong.
Li Dong was secretly awestruck. This time when he came to Elder Ai's cave, he actually came to seek help from Elder Ai.
But he didn't expect that Elder Ai would say such words to him. For a moment, Li Dong was a little at a loss.
"Master, my disciple still doesn't understand what you mean."
Li Dong said in a low voice.
"Li Dong, your background is both an advantage and a disadvantage for you. You have had a smooth journey since childhood and have never encountered any setbacks. This is why you are now
The reason why you feel helpless when you encounter a problem.”
With that said, Elder Ai looked at Hall Master Li, "Brother Li, what do you mean?"
Hall Master Li's expression turned slightly grim. In fact, he was a little unhappy.
Because he didn't expect that Elder Ai, as Li Dong's master, didn't say anything when Li Dong targeted Su Chen in Tianzi District. Now Li Dong has encountered a setback.
I asked Elder Ai for advice, but it turned out that Elder Ai, as the master, grabbed the disciple and scolded him, and did not say that he would help him.
As for whether what Elder Ai said made sense, Hall Master Li didn't think about it. The only thing he cared about was that his grandson Li Dong's dominance in Tianzi District was threatened.
.
Originally, Li Dong had an absolute dominant position in the Tianzi District. His alchemy and martial arts cultivation, whether he was a martial arts disciple or an alchemy disciple, could not pose a threat to his position.
But now, there is Su Chen who doesn't play according to common sense. He can defeat Liang Ze in the Tianzi area in the alchemy way. Although he has not grown up in the martial arts, he has already beaten Tianzi in the ring.
Ou Song Yunhui has suffered losses. The most important thing is that Su Chen is only eighteen years old, and no one can say what his future potential will be.
Hall Master Li also felt a sense of crisis in his instinct. He did not want his grandson, who he had high hopes for, to be surpassed by those who came after him and become a stepping stone for those who came after him.
Therefore, he wanted to help Li Dong nip this crisis in the bud.
"Brother Ai, I think that no matter what, Dong'er can't lose this breath. If that villain Su Chen succeeds, Dong'er's status in Tianzi District will definitely be greatly affected in the future.
Xiang, this is not conducive to his future development."
When Elder Ai heard what Hall Master Li said, he couldn't help but shake his head. Hall Master Li didn't even listen to what he just said.
What he meant was that he still didn’t want Li Dong to lose this battle. But he didn’t know that if he helped Li Dong this time, would he be able to help him in the next ten, twenty, or fifty years? Wait.
When the two of them are buried in the earth, who else can help him?
To put it bluntly, Hall Master Li is still short-sighted.
