Chapter 208 207. The Darkening of Yu Xiaogang
"What was the result?" A disciple of Haotian Sect who was accompanying the envoy laughed and said, "What good result can there be... One was scolded, and the other didn't even meet. If you ask me, the responsibility for the failure of this trip lies entirely with him. Young Sect Master, don't be fooled by him. Judging from his behavior just now, more than a dozen of us looked at him and thought he was just like a shrew!"
"How dare you! Do you understand the rules?"
"Xiao San asked me, not you."
"You rashly interrupted me. Is this how you, as disciples of the Haotian Sect, should behave?"
"When I'm talking to Xiao San, when is it your turn to interrupt?"
Yu Xiaogang frowned and looked quite scary.
However, this no longer scare people.
Tang San's face was very calm.
Although there was a strong sense of displeasure hidden beneath the calmness.
Moreover, unlike Yu Xiaogang who was furious, he cared more about whether what these Haotian Sect disciples had just said was true or false, rather than whether it was rude or not. The Haotian Sect has not yet escaped the influence of Ye Qingcang's previous attack that almost split it, and he, as the young sect leader, does not have much say. Even his father, Tang Hao, was affected by the incident of crushing the Haotian Order and was suspected by several elders. What he needs is no longer the so-called rules, but merit, merit that can give him more say.
Therefore, Tang San quickly controlled his emotions.
The calm tone was like a steel knife, stabbing directly into the core of the whole thing: "Enough, making a fuss at the door of my Haotian Sect, how can it be disgraceful... Master, is what they said true?"
Yu Xiaogang's face froze and his heart tightened.
Carefully observing Tang San's expression.
Seeing that Tang San was getting impatient, he didn't dare to drag it on, so he had to evade the main point and said, "The reason for this failure is that Ye Qingcang interfered... I ordered them to investigate, but everything they found was fake. They lied to me that the leader of the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex clan was still Yu Yuanzhen, but when I arrived, I found that the leader of the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex clan had become Ye Qingcang. This was their dereliction of duty, which led to the failure of my plan!"
"Yu Xiaogang, where is your conscience when you say this?"
"Have you ever considered our difficulties?"
"We have been isolated from the outside world for many years, and even the four-attribute families below us are gone. We are like a group of blind and deaf people whose eyes and ears have been poked out. We have to collect any intelligence from scratch."
"Did you give us time?"
"Isn't it that the core reason for the failure of the whole thing is that you are greedy for success and reckless?"
"Who do you think you are?"
"On the day you arrived, you went to see your father without any preparation?"
Tang Heng, a disciple of Haotian Sect who had been serving as the deputy envoy, finally couldn't bear it anymore. As a deputy envoy, the power in his hands was pitifully small. Of course, he didn't care about the small amount of power in his hands. If Yu Xiaogang could handle everything properly, he would rather have less power in his hands, because less power meant less work for him to do, and even if something went wrong, his responsibility would be smaller.
This would have been a good thing.
However, Yu Xiaogang doesn't think so.
He had clearly expressed his opposition to Yu Xiaogang's arrangement from the very beginning, believing that such a rash plan was too risky and that caution should be exercised now. However, Yu Xiaogang did not listen.
In desperation, he could only use his power as deputy envoy to control the mind of the chief envoy.
At that time, in the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex family, if he had not stepped forward to make a turning point, perhaps not only Yu Xiaogang would have ended up with his fingers cut off. They, including him, might have been implicated and hit by Ye Qingcang. It was him who stood up at the critical moment to stabilize the situation.
Although he did not achieve any achievement after arriving at the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect, the problem was that the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect had rejected their visit from the very beginning, and all of them, including him, were turned away, leaving no room for them to display their talents.
Looking back on this journey, even if he did nothing, or even did not have to work hard, it still didn't work out, right?
You, Yu Xiaogang, just talk nonsense.
The blame has fallen on us.
This is not a matter of having no conscience.
But...are you still a human being?
If you are really incompetent and admit that you are a waste and an amateur, you can tell me that although I am not a famous diplomatic envoy, I am not a rookie who has not led delegations to visit other sects. You can just take the credit with a title, and then, give me the real power and let me arrange all the affairs. Anyway, everyone understands the meaning of the young sect master arranging you into this delegation. It is nothing more than letting you get some credit, which is also human nature.
But if you put the blame on me, then my life is not a life?
However, Tang San was not in the mood to listen to the quarrel between Yu Xiaogang and others. Hearing Ye Qingcang's name again, he couldn't help but feel a little hatred, or rather, he couldn't help but feel a little hatred. He was distracted for four or five seconds before he controlled his emotions.
I took a look at the scene where feathers were flying everywhere.
His eyes turned cold, and his mind was filled with a thousand thoughts.
He made a decision quickly: "Okay, stop arguing. The specific details will be reported to Uncle after you go in. Now everything is normal. Rules are rules and cannot be broken lightly... This is my token."
The Haotian Sect disciple who was in charge of checking identities didn't notice anything.
He took Tang San's token and injected soul power into it.
Then, hand it back with both hands.
After doing all this, I wrote the records in the notebook in my hand.
However, Tang San's response and actions had completely different meanings in Yu Xiaogang's eyes, especially when Tang San turned around and left. Even after he got on the carriage, passed the checkpoint on the other side, and drove away, Yu Xiaogang still stood there in a daze, unable to come back to his senses for a long time, his mentality shattered in an instant.
These disciples of Haotian Sect are not well versed in the ways of the world.
I can't see anything wrong with Tang San's actions just now.
It is even possible that they will praise Tang San afterwards, agreeing with Tang San's equal treatment and his impartiality, and will not think too much about it.
But how could his relationship with Tang San be explained by just a few words?
If Tang San is willing to help him, there are many ways.
The more obvious way is to use the excuse of "the situation is serious, so we should keep things simple" to let him in; the more obscure way is to ask him to hand over the token, put the two tokens together, and let this Haotian Sect disciple check them. You can just find a topic to push the matter over, and afterward say a few words of apology to give him a way out; in short, there are seven or eight methods that he can think of. Could it be that Tang San really couldn't think of any?
Especially the scene where he turned around and got into the car.
The meaning is already very clear.
"But..." Yu Xiaogang was trembling all over. It was a sunny day, but he looked as miserable as a drowned chicken. "Everything I did was for you... If it weren't for you... If you hadn't provoked Ye Qingcang, I wouldn't have ended up like this... Even if I was wrong, don't you have any responsibility at all?"
"Hey, what are you thinking about?" The disciple of Haotian Sect who was in charge of identity verification pushed Yu Xiaogang impatiently. Looking at Yu Xiaogang who seemed to be frightened, he said impatiently: "Are you going in or not?"
"Come in! Come in! Come in!" Yu Xiaogang hid the resentment that flashed in his heart, and his attitude suddenly became humble, like a pug, nodding and bowing: "Rules cannot be broken, it is indeed true..."
But in a place where you can't see, another thought has already emerged.
There are thousands of roads in this world.
He doesn't have to follow Tang San's path.
You know, he is not only Tang San's teacher, he also has another identity that is easily overlooked by many people: the honorary elder of the Spirit Hall!
