One person: I am Li Buren, I cannot bear to do anything!
Chapter 64 The Meeting of the Elders
Li Buren saw things clearly; the situation at the Ten Elders' meeting was already quite obvious.
Once Guan Shihua, a hermit from Northeast China, has her skills of binding spirits and commanding generals exposed, her prestige will plummet outside the Northeast.
As an ordinary person whose meridians had been destroyed, Master Jiekong's influence and voice were extremely limited.
The remaining attitudes of Lu Jin, Lü Ci, Na Ruhu, and Mu You were not very clear.
Seeing that after Feng Zhenghao finished speaking, apart from Wang Ai and Chen Jinkui who made their clear statements, the others did not react much.
Another bald man stepped forward.
"Since none of us have a proper idea, why don't we listen to my suggestion?"
The lean, bald man stood up, a strange glint in his small eyes.
"How about we cripple him?"
The room fell silent for a moment, followed by a sneer and the sound of Lu Jin slamming his hand on the table.
Li Buren couldn't help but burst out laughing.
Lu Jin slammed his hand on the table and stood up abruptly, glaring angrily at Mu You.
Mu You waved to Lu Jin, signaling him to calm down, while his sly eyes swept over Li Buren.
He didn't seem to have any unusual reaction or feeling, and continued talking to himself.
"His meridians have been destroyed, and that's the end of the matter. The company will not pursue this further."
"He can still go back to Longhu Mountain and be his Celestial Master. We just need to be careful when we make a move and only cripple his skills."
"Anyway, he's in good health, so it's not a bad thing for him to live out his days as an ordinary old man."
Mu You became more and more confident as he spoke, and even nudged Master Jiekong next to him and made a couple of teasing remarks.
"This may sound scary, but it doesn't really have any impact, right, Master Jiekong?"
Master Jiekong forced out a few dry expressions and quickly scanned the more than four members of the Ten Elders who had already expressed their opinions.
He had some initial hesitation, but when he saw Chairman Su, a company director, in the audience, he made his choice.
"Well, I don't think it will have a big impact, and this method is not a bad idea."
Lu Jin's face darkened, and he spoke with some hesitation.
"Isn't this punishment a bit too harsh..."
Ru Hu rubbed his head with his hand, covering his face with his large palm, making it impossible to see his expression.
Lu Ci's scar twitched, as if he was also thinking about something.
"In that case, let's vote. Raise your hand if you agree with the plan."
Mu You spoke first, then raised his hand first.
Next came Wang Ai, Chen Jinkui, and Feng Zhenghao.
And the previously mentioned solution to the void.
The remaining few—Guan Shihua, Na Ruhu, and Lü Ci—did not move; only Lu Jin had a gloomy face.
Mu You cleared his throat.
"Since more than five people agreed in this meeting of nine, we consider it passed..."
Before Mu You could finish speaking, a tremendous sound, like a thunderclap, rang out.
Li Buren stood up at some point and kicked the round table.
"Bang!"
A huge hole was torn open, and wood chips flew everywhere.
"I'd like to see who dares to do that?!"
Li Buren was too lazy to even act anymore.
The original plan was to have Feng Zhenghao put on a show to pique the interest of those involved and, incidentally, gain Wang Ai's trust.
"I can't believe these idiots actually dared to mention it, let alone cripple the Old Celestial Master? Are they still dreaming?"
Before the Ten Elders could make a move, Chairman Su had already erupted.
"Who do you think you are! Do you think you have the right to cause trouble at the Ten Elders' meeting?"
"Letting you sit in is already a favor, and you still dare to do this? Do you have a death wish?!"
Li couldn't bear to glance at Chairman Su sideways.
Turning around, Li couldn't bear it and slapped Su Dong across the face, sending him flying to the ground.
"I'm a strong supporter of gender equality. Don't think that just because you're an old woman I won't dare hit you."
"Remember this: I'm giving Zhao Fangxu face this time because you threatened me, but next time, it'll be your head flying off the ground!"
The Ten Elders' expressions immediately became incredibly interesting.
Everyone was thinking different things, but they all remained surprisingly silent.
Lu Ci's scar twitched twice. After exchanging a glance with Wang Ai, he didn't speak. His tense body relaxed, and he lay back in the chair.
The way Ru Hu looked at Li Buren also carried a special meaning, as if there was some appreciation in it.
Lu Jin was surprised, and then got up and walked to Li Buren's side.
"Master Li, isn't this a bit too presumptuous?"
Wang Ai stood up, a faint smile on his old face, yet it gave off a somewhat sinister feeling.
Wang Ai, who had originally wanted to maintain some semblance of composure and calm, could no longer hold back.
Even with his greed and cowardice, he never expected that Li Buren would dare to show such an attitude at the Ten Elders Conference.
Chen Jinkui also stood up.
"Master Li has become a bit emotional. This is, after all, a meeting of the Ten Elders. Such behavior is really against etiquette."
"How to deal with the old Celestial Master is our decision, it's not up to Master Li to decide for us."
In the exchange of words, the conflicting attitudes of both sides are almost always laid bare.
"Putting the matter of the Old Celestial Master aside for now, shouldn't you apologize to us for your actions at the Ten Elders' meeting?"
Chen Jinkui dragged all ten of the gangs into it, forcing Li Buren into a desperate situation.
This action can be considered a slap in the face to some of the Ten Elders, not to mention the unconscious Chairman Su underground.
Li Buren nodded.
"I am a reasonable person, and what Master Chen said is indeed correct."
"As a junior, it was inappropriate for me to interfere in the meeting of the Ten Elders and act in this way. I should apologize."
Wang Ai and Chen Jinkui exchanged a glance, slightly surprised.
Unexpectedly, Li Buren, who had been so defiant just moments before, admitted it so readily this time.
Feng Zhenghao scratched his head; he had a bad feeling.
Li couldn't help but smile and continue speaking.
"But I just won't apologize!"
He stomped his foot on the table again, and another big hole appeared.
Lu Jin lowered his head, looking at Li Buren who had stood up to the Ten Elders for Zhang Zhiwei, and felt a little guilty.
"A flawless life? Am I really a flawless person?"
"Compared to this kid, I'm not exactly without fault, but I seem to have a lot to be ashamed of..."
The atmosphere instantly became very strange.
The Ten Elders seemed to be clearly divided into two factions.
One faction supports a serious handling of the matter and the removal of Zhang Zhiwei from office, while the other faction remains ambiguous and unwilling to commit to a serious handling of the matter.
Just as Mu You was about to make a final decision, Li Bu Ren stopped him in this way.
This incident, which should have been ignored, maintained a delicate balance in front of Lu Jin and the other members of the Ten Elders.
After a moment of silence, Lu Jin spoke.
"I could never agree to the decision to abolish the Old Celestial Master."
"Alright then, since the five of you think so, then you will be the ones to do this job."
"We, the ten elders, will not get involved."
As one of the top three among the Ten Elders, Lu Jin's words still carry some weight.
Several of the Ten Elders expressed their opinions, and no one had any objections.
This included Chen Jinkui and Wang Ai, who appeared somewhat abnormal.
Their gaze finally returned to Li Buren.
After listening, the young Wudang senior disciple smiled and returned to his refined demeanor.
The Tenth Elder's voice rang out last.
"Master Li, what do you think of this method?"
"Can."
