Chapter 53 - 51: Half of the Military Merit Medals Belong to You, and the Other Half to Him
Shi Nian cleared his throat before speaking, "Master, I just want to ask you a question."
"Ask!" Ling Tian Sword Master furrowed his brows.
Shi Nian blinked and said, "Within our Divine Martial Sect, there are altogether five Venerables besides Master. Apart from you, there are Bai Hua Immortal Venerable, Fire Flame Venerable, Qing Guang Venerable, and Chaofang Immortal Venerable. Just now on the stage, when the Sect Leader suddenly struck at senior sister, I don’t believe the other Immortal Venerables were not secretly observing from the void. However, even when it was clear that the Sect Leader was in the wrong, none of them stepped out to speak up for us."
The brows of Ling Tian Sword Master slightly twitched, he coughed lightly, "These people are all Zhang Dog Egg’s lapdogs, they are unreliable."
Shi Nian sighed, "Also, I’ve been in the sect for over a decade now, and in these years, aside from ordinary disciples who are still somewhat respectful to us, the direct disciples of the Venerables seem to dread us. Why is that?"
"...They know I don’t get along with the Sect Leader, so they avoid our branch. They’re too blinded by their own interests," Ling Tian Sword Master said with an angry look on his face.
Shi Nian looked at him with an indescribable expression.
Ling Tian Sword Master struggled to maintain a composed facade.
Shi Nian bluntly asked, "Master... what on earth did you do to offend everyone?"
"What could I possibly have done!" Ling Tian Sword Master snorted coldly: "It’s all because those people are petty."
