CHAPTER 288: CHAPTER 176 ELDER’S TEACHING_3

In the beginning, Elder Liu remained indifferent, but as he listened further, he couldn’t help but frown. When he heard that Li Yunjing had used the "Little Five Elements Array" to defeat his enemy, he nodded slightly.

Once Li Yunjing had recounted the entire event in detail, the room fell into complete silence.

After a long while, Elder Liu gently said, "No matter who it is! Anyone who dares to incite internal conflict will face severe punishment under the sect laws! Do you have any solid evidence of Wei Henian’s actions?"

"Well... not at the moment..."

Faced with the inquiry from a high-ranking figure, Li Yunjing didn’t dare to lie and could only reply softly.

"Hmm! Are you trying to warn the ’Laws Association’ and Wei Henian?"

Elder Liu asked again.

"Hiss..."

Li Yunjing was startled, not expecting Elder Liu to be so perceptive, having figured out his intentions without him saying a word.

"Hehe... Young one, if you live for a few hundred years, you will also see through many things."

Seeing Li Yunjing’s surprise, Elder Liu chuckled as he spoke.

Elder Liu’s words made Li Yunjing shiver with awe!

Only then did he understand that trying to outsmart a high-ranking figure was futile.

These figures have lived for hundreds or even thousands of years, witnessing the rise and fall of dynasties.

What kind of people and events have they not experienced?

Their long lives have given them such deep understanding that they can see through many things without much effort.

Li Yunjing’s intentions were not hard to guess for Elder Liu.

Elder Liu was not displeased either!

It was understandable for a young one from his family to come back and complain, perhaps embellishing the story a bit after suffering injustice outside!

It would have been wrong if Li Yunjing hadn’t come to him but sought help from the "Seven Star Palace" instead!

That would mean he had divided loyalties and wasn’t close to the "Seven Star Palace"!

The perspective of a high-ranking figure differs from that of a Foundation Establishment cultivator.

"Yes! That Wei Henian has given me trouble multiple times! I see him as an irreconcilable foe! I intend to join forces with the Fu Family, Yu Family, and Lv Family to make his life difficult, preventing him from having the time to plot against me further!"

Since Elder Liu had figured everything out, Li Yunjing didn’t hide his thoughts and expressed them openly.

Upon hearing Li Yunjing’s words, Xu Wuyi, who was standing to the side, couldn’t help but roll his eyes.

This kid! He was so evasive in front of me, but when he faced Elder Liu, he confessed everything!

Truly, he doesn’t take me seriously at all!

It seems I’ll have to find an opportunity to properly discipline this little brat!

Little did Li Yunjing realize that in just this short amount of time, he had greatly displeased Xu Wuyi.

"Hmm! In that case, let the Fu Family take action first! At a critical moment, I’ll step in to give the ’Laws Association’ a warning."

Elder Liu laughed, clearly appreciating this young disciple.

Being able to leverage the Yu Family and Fu Family was a remarkable move.

No matter how the young kids had reached an agreement, it was the sign of an excellent disciple.

Li Yunjing was not just a cultivation enthusiast but a wise person as well.

Smart people are always invincible, which made Elder Liu even more pleased with him.

Given Li Yunjing’s high proficiency in Array Dao, Elder Liu decided to lend him a helping hand.

"Thank you, Elder, for your help!"

Li Yunjing was overjoyed to finally receive some good news.

The high-ranking figure from the "Seven Star Palace" was willing to back him up!

Xu Wuyi, standing by, looked at Li Yunjing with envy. This kid truly had a stroke of luck!

Even Elder Liu was willing to help him!

It should be noted that Elder Liu was no ordinary Golden Core Realm expert!

He was also an Array Dao Grandmaster!

He was one of the true high-ranking figures in the "Shenxiao Dao Sect" with immense power.

Unlike those ordinary Golden Core Realm elders without real power, Elder Liu was in a different league entirely!

If Elder Liu wanted, he could now go to "Shenxiao Palace" to meet the Sect Leader Venerable in person to advocate for Li Yunjing!

That was the extent of Elder Liu’s influence!

Of course, in Elder Liu’s eyes, the current situation was just a minor affair among children and did not warrant his full intervention.

The "Laws Association" had some of his old friends, making it difficult for him to act harshly.

"Hehe! Focus on your cultivation and practice your arrays diligently; you have a bright future. I look forward to your future achievements!"

Elder Liu looked at the young disciple in front of him and smiled gently.

As for how the matter would be handled, Elder Liu knew exactly how far to go.

"The disciple will follow the Elder’s teachings!"

Li Yunjing quickly stood up and saluted.

"Hmm! The issues with the ’Laws Association’ and Wei Henian are minor matters. Once you reach the Foundation Establishment Realm, your status will be on par with Wei Henian’s. You possess great talent, and with the aid of Array Dao, you can contend against Wei Henian!"

Seeing that Li Yunjing was quite sharp, Elder Liu affectionately guided him, "In the Cultivation Realm, cultivation is the foundation. When you are strong enough, no one will dare to provoke you!"

"Yes! The disciple understands! The disciple will surely cultivate diligently and not disappoint the Elder’s expectations!"

Li Yunjing felt grateful.

"Hmm! Stay out of this matter. Let the Fu and Yu families stir things up. If it escalates, higher authorities will step in to resolve it. At that time, cry out your grievances and seize some benefits along with them, and this matter will roughly conclude."

Elder Liu advised.

"Alas! Can’t we deal some blow to the ’Laws Association’?"

Li Yunjing asked reluctantly.

"The ’Laws Association’ runs too deep and involves many higher layers, making it hard to deal with."

Elder Liu shook his head slightly and didn’t want to elaborate.

It was clear that, in Elder Liu’s eyes, neither Xu Wuyi nor Li Yunjing had the credentials to know about higher-level matters. Even if he spoke, it would be of no use.

"Yes! The disciple understands."

Li Yunjing felt a shiver of awe, realizing that the "Laws Association" perhaps had Golden Core Realm cultivators supporting it!
