This is said in a high-sounding way, and every sentence sounds reasonable, and there is no fault in it.
But Zhou Qi could see clearly that Elder Chen was trying to be biased. The other party didn't even give him a chance to explain. He immediately decided that he was the unreasonable person.
The first to conceive, the first to condemn.
Hearing this, the disciples around him nodded secretly, with recognition in their eyes.
Liu Ying on the side slowly stretched his fingers hidden in his sleeves, and there was an imperceptible secret of joy on his lips.
But at this moment, under the overwhelming pressure of the elders and the scrutiny of everyone in the room, Zhou Qi stood straight, without any concession or cowardice.
He raised his eyes and looked directly at Elder Chen. There was no trace of awe in his eyes, only a clear and cold look.
Before Elder Chen could speak out again, Zhou Qi spoke first, completely ignoring the pressure coming from his head:
"Elder Chen, you are right, but don't say it again next time!"
As soon as the words fell to the ground, Resources Hall was instantly in an uproar.
All the disciples in the hall looked horrified. No one expected that a junior disciple would dare to openly contradict a powerful elder in public!
Elder Chen's face suddenly turned livid, the pressure around him surged, and a fierce look appeared in his brows. "How dare you question me?!"
"Why don't I dare!!"
Zhou Qi stood with his head held high, scanning the audience calmly, and finally returned to Elder Chen: "I came here today just to receive the monthly practice resources that should belong to me."
"I never expected that I would be made difficult by everyone at every level. This resource was given by my master and has nothing to do with anyone present."
"As for the rules passed down from the peak that you mentioned, I don't recognize them but I respect them."
"You can continue to implement it in the future, but please do not count my resources."
Having said that, Zhou Qi changed his subject and looked at Deacon Zhao again:
"Deacon, I asked nicely for resources, but you have given in twice. If you still act like this, you are openly provoking me!"
Zhou Qi paused after speaking here, then lowered his voice slightly, with a chill, and murderous intent appeared in his eyes:
"If you insist on doing this, I will challenge you Life-and-Death Arena!"
Deacon Zhao's face suddenly changed, and he looked around hurriedly.
The classmates who had fanned the flames just now all lowered their heads to avoid it, and Liu Ying even stood aside and watched.
Deacon Zhao didn't dare to hold on anymore, his eyes showed panic, he gritted his teeth suddenly, turned around and ran back to the back hall in panic.
Not long after, he carefully took out all the elixirs, spiritual stones and rare spiritual materials corresponding to the grades of his direct disciples, carefully counted them one by one, held them in both hands, and handed them to the counter respectfully.
Zhou Qi glanced at the pile of spiritual materials and reached out to take them away.
At this moment, a thick, old hand suddenly came out and pressed heavily on Zhou Qi's arm!
The mighty and majestic monk's power burst out instantly, tightly restraining his wrist.
Elder Chen's face was as gloomy as water, and his eyes were full of anger. He even looked at Zhou Qi with murderous intent. "What a shameless brat!"
"The rules of the school, the teachings of the elders come first, how dare you be so unscrupulous, arrogant and rebellious! Is this your respect for teachers?!"
Along with the angry shouts, Elder Chen increased the strength of his palms layer by layer, and the terrifying pressure was crushed down layer by layer.
Zhou Qi's body suffered a huge force, and he staggered involuntarily. His shoulders and clothes tightened instantly, and his bones creaked faintly.
But even though he was in an absolutely weak position and was suppressed by the elders, the coldness and unruliness in his eyes remained unchanged, and he still looked directly at the furious Elder Chen, his voice was cold and sharp, and he spoke sharply:
"Elder Chen! Are you sure you want to attack me in public?!"
Elder Chen paused when he heard the words, and the pressure suddenly stopped. His eyes narrowed slightly, and the surging anger in his eyes was forced deep into the depths, leaving only a heavy gloom.
He stared at Zhou Qi who showed no fear in front of him. Anger surged in his chest, but strangely it did not explode on the spot.
He has lived for hundreds of years and is well versed in the sect's checks and balances.
They publicly suppressed Peak Master's personal biography, but it was not Zhou Qi who was suppressed, but Fu Linyuan's face.
With Fu Linyuan's character, it doesn't matter whether you are an elder or not. If you don't slap him to death, you will be lucky.
Spirit Transformation versus Integration Realm, there is no way to survive.
There was silence for a while.
Elder Chen suddenly laughed angrily, with a cold and perfunctory arc at the corner of his mouth, and said three times loudly:
"Okay, okay!"
Three good words, no praise at all, all hidden murderous intent.
He firmly grasped Zhou Qi's shoulders, and then released his big hand on Zhou Qi's arm. The majestic pressure remaining in his palm slowly dissipated.
The momentum that had just been overwhelming the entire audience like a mountain suddenly subsided without a trace.
Zhou Qi's expression changed due to the huge force just now, but he resisted and did not move.
The shoulder is right next to the ear, and the crunching sound of the bones being squeezed can be heard clearly.
Immediately afterwards, the stagnant air around them suddenly loosened, and the boulder that was pressing on everyone's hearts suddenly fell to the ground.
Elder Chen glanced coldly at the silent disciples in the audience, and his voice was cold and majestic, without a trace of emotion. "Everyone will continue to receive this month's resources, and no chaos will occur. Violators will be severely punished according to the sect's laws!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he no longer glanced at Zhou Qi. With a flick of his broad black robe sleeves and a gust of biting wind, he turned around and walked straight out.
When he reached the threshold of the Resources Hall, his footsteps were imperceptible, and a wisp of fine sound transmission quietly penetrated into Zhou Qi Sea of Consciousness: "If you are too energetic, you will be easily defeated! I want to see how long you can be arrogant?!"
After finishing his words, he swayed out of the hall and disappeared at the end of the mountain road.
Broken face.
This Elder Chen doesn't know whether it's because of Liu Ying or other reasons, but it seems to be hostile to him from the beginning.
Now in this scene, there is no room for relaxation between the two.
Inside the Resources Hall, a deathly silence once again enveloped the entire place.
Zhou Qi was not in the mood to continue firing at everyone. He rubbed his arms, collected the resources on the cabinet Storage Bag, and then strode out.
It wasn't until Zhou Qi's figure completely disappeared at the end of the mountain road that the stagnant atmosphere in the Resources Hall was completely loosened, and small comments came and went, extremely suppressed.
"It's so arrogant... This new junior brother is so brave, even Elder Chen dares to fight hard."
"But he is a capital maniac! Fu Peak Master personally supports him, let alone contradicting the elder, even if he slaps him, he may not suffer a loss."
"It's over. Now Elder Chen is completely at a disadvantage. I'm afraid Heavenly Sword Peak will become more lively in the future."
"Lively? I think it's dangerous! This Zhou Qi is too sharp and has made too many enemies. Sooner or later it will fall..."
Amid the noisy discussion, Liu Ying stood there without saying a word. The air pressure around his body was horribly low, and the gloom in his eyes almost solidified.
