Chapter 622 - 614 Ye Family
"Jiang Yufeng, have you gone mad?! The Grotto Heavens are the foundation for any sect! The number of Grotto Heavens often indicates the number of Heavenly Immortals that can emerge in the future, and yet you’re willing to hand over such foundational territory to others!?"
As soon as Gu Jinlai finished speaking, Ye Yunguang was the first to rebuke him.
"Silence!"
Immortal Yun Zhen glared at Ye Yunguang, his oppressive aura fluctuating: "Do you Ye Family members really consider Creation Gate as nothing more than your own household? Why did Creation Gate erupt into civil war sixty years ago? Wasn’t it because your Ye Family was too dominant, forming cliques to conspire against others, aiming to monopolize all the benefits of the sect? And now, here you are again, pointing fingers non-stop at a Grotto Heaven that was obtained by Jiang Yufeng first. Won’t you be satisfied until you have run Creation Gate into decline and severed its inheritance?"
"You...you’re talking nonsense! We of the Ye Family have worked diligently for the development of Creation Gate, never daring to slack off. If not for the support of our Elder Ye Yan, Creation Gate might have already been divvied up and devoured by the surrounding factions. What’s wrong with me wanting to preserve the assets of our Creation Gate!?"
As Ye Yunguang spoke, he turned to Gu Jinlai and said harshly, "On the other hand, the Jiang Family, by hook or by crook, has been moving resources that belong to our Creation Gate out of the sect. Now, even the Grotto Heavens, the very foundation of the sect, are going to be handed over so readily. This is the true behavior of squandering family wealth!"
Gu Jinlai frowned: "Although my elder brother has given some support to the Jiang Family over the years, how much was really given? It’s obvious from the fact that the Jiang Family hasn’t produced any Mahayana cultivators besides me. And, for these past thirty years, he has been working assiduously for the sect, bending over backward to stabilize the situation, and even if he has been taking his offerings and salary, that should make up for the modest resources given to the Jiang Family, shouldn’t it?"
"Offerings and salary? If it weren’t for Elder’s tireless cultivation, how could Jiang Yujian have reached Dao and become an immortal? With so many resources spent on him, shouldn’t he work for Creation Gate? Otherwise, wouldn’t that make him an ungrateful wretch?"
Ye Yunguang declared unequivocally, "Anyway, I do not agree to hand over a Grotto Heaven, the foundation of our sect, to someone else!"
"That’s not up to you!"
