Becoming the Villain for Master

Chen Xuan's sudden change in demeanor caused Chang Er Ding Guang Xian to tremble like a sieve.

He kept apologizing to Chen Xuan, terrified that another disagreement would result in him facing the wall for three thousand years again.

"It's good that you know you were wrong. If you dare to question me again next time, you'll know what regret is."

After Chen Xuan finished speaking, he transformed into a mist of water and vanished directly from Chang Er Ding Guang Xian's cave dwelling.

Chen Xuan was gone, and only then did Chang Er Ding Guang Xian's hanging heart finally settle. At this moment, his clothes were completely soaked with sweat.

"When under someone else's roof, one must bow their head. I hope I never have a day to turn things around."

"Duobao, in the thousand years I was away, did anyone violate the sect rules?"

"Reporting, Eldest Senior Brother, in the first few hundred years, occasionally someone would intentionally or unintentionally violate the sect rules. However, Duobao has punished them all according to the rules.

Now, no one dares to violate the Three Pure Ones Sect Rules anymore. The Three Pure Ones Sect Rules have become a treasured sword hanging over the heads of all disciples."

Hearing Daoist Duobao's reply, Chen Xuan couldn't help but nod. "Give me the list of disciples who violated the sect rules."

Daoist Duobao was stunned, and at the same time, a bad premonition appeared in his heart.

"Eldest Senior Brother, are you really planning to expel them from the sect?"

Chen Xuan looked at Daoist Duobao and spoke after a long while, "Duobao, do you know how to maintain a whole?"

Daoist Duobao couldn't help but shake his head. "Duobao does not know. Please enlighten me, Eldest Senior Brother."

"To govern a whole well, this whole could be a family, a sect, a country, or even a Great Teaching.

But no matter what it is, it needs clear rules, because without rules, there can be no order.

The so-called order, the 'square' part has sharp edges exposed, making people hate and fear it. The 'round' part handles matters smoothly, making people feel close and respected.

Therefore, for every 'square' person, there must be a 'round' person. Only in this way can order be achieved, and with order, there can be rules.

You spend every day with these junior brothers and sisters, so you must be the 'round' person. And I, your senior brother, can only be the 'square' person, the villain.

Only when you and I, brothers, are one 'round' and one 'square', can these junior brothers and sisters have rules. Only by letting them know what is right and what is wrong can they avoid the karmic killing tribulation."

After hearing Chen Xuan's explanation, Daoist Duobao finally understood.

He immediately bowed to Chen Xuan. "Eldest Senior Brother's breadth of mind, Duobao is ashamed of his inferiority."

After speaking, he handed Chen Xuan the names of everyone who had violated the sect rules during the thousand years Chen Xuan was away.

Seeing the names Duobao provided him, Chen Xuan secretly let out a long breath in his heart.

Chen Xuan had never heard of any of these people, which meant they were not key figures during the Investiture of the Gods Tribulation.

This meant Chen Xuan had no scruples whatsoever in dealing with them.

"Go, gather everyone before the Door Rules Stone Tablet." Chen Xuan waved his hand at Daoist Duobao.

Daoist Duobao nodded at Chen Xuan but did not turn around and leave immediately.

After thinking for a moment, he spoke, "Eldest Senior Brother, I wonder if Duobao is qualified to be the 'square' one?"

Chen Xuan smiled and stood up, patting the solemn-faced Daoist Duobao. "Go, there are some things you can't handle."

Daoist Duobao nodded, then turned and left with a determined look.

Before the Door Rules Stone Tablet, Chen Xuan looked at the thirty to forty disciples of Tongtian. This naturally included Chang Er Ding Guang Xian.

These people were whispering to each other, wondering why Duobao had called them here.

Just then, Chen Xuan's figure appeared before the Door Rules Stone Tablet.

Seeing Chen Xuan appear, all the disciples of Tongtian simultaneously bowed to Chen Xuan in a half-master ceremony.

Chen Xuan waved his hand at the crowd, helping everyone up.

"Today I will activate the tablet. Anyone who has not violated the door rules within a thousand years of my departure can call me Eldest Senior Brother."

After speaking, he waved his hand at the Door Rules Stone Tablet. Immediately, a ray of light shot out from one of the door rules on the tablet.

The light landed directly on a disciple. One after another, a total of eight disciples were illuminated by the light.

At this moment, Chen Xuan's face was extremely gloomy. With a wave of his hand, he pulled the eight disciples to the front of the crowd.

"When I left, I said that those who do not violate the door rules within a thousand years can call me Eldest Senior Brother.

Anyone who violates the door rules is not qualified to be my junior brother or sister. It seems you have taken my words as wind in your ears.

Since you feel that my words cannot restrain you, you can go back where you came from."

Although Chen Xuan's words were not particularly sharp, they carried a suffocating authority.

At this, the eight disciples were instantly stunned. They knelt down before Chen Xuan with a thud.

"Eldest Senior Brother, we did not intentionally violate the door rules. Please spare us this time."

"The cultivation you have gained over the past three thousand years, I will not abolish it. But the Supreme Purity Immortal Technique must be taken back."

Hearing that Chen Xuan not only wanted to expel them from the sect but also take back the Supreme Purity Immortal Technique, the eight disciples instantly became enraged.

However, they were not foolish enough to fight Chen Xuan. After all, their cultivation was inferior to his, and fighting him would be seeking death.

"We refuse to accept this. The Supreme Purity Immortal Technique was taught to us by Master. Why do you have the right to take it back?

We want to see Master. We are disciples accepted by Master, and only Master has the right to expel us from the sect."

Chen Xuan shook his head helplessly, looking at the eight disciples with killing intent in his eyes. "If you all think this way, then take a step forward."

The eight disciples exchanged glances, then nodded simultaneously.

Immediately, they lifted their legs and took a step forward.

However, the step they took was not the same, as seven of them remained in place, while only one stood at the very front.

That disciple did not expect that he would be schemed against by the others.

But at this point, he could not go back on his word and could only brace himself and look at Chen Xuan before him.

Chen Xuan smiled coldly and nodded. "You can even scheme against your fellow disciples. This shows that expelling you from the sect is not unjust at all."

Originally, you only needed to leave the Supreme Purity Immortal Technique and you could leave Kunlun Mountain. Now you don't have that chance."

Seeing that Chen Xuan was truly intent on killing, the seven disciples didn't say a word and turned to flee.

It was a pity that Chen Xuan wouldn't let them have their way. The Green Lotus Precious Color Banner and the Plain Colored Cloud Realm Banner flew out simultaneously.

They directly blocked the escape route of the seven disciples. At the same time, the Eighteen Level Pagoda also appeared in Chen Xuan's hand.

As the Eighteen Level Pagoda descended, the seven disciples didn't even let out a scream before they were directly turned into ashes.

Killing seven disciples with a wave of his hand completely stunned the only disciple who had stood out.

He felt that he would be next and subconsciously closed his eyes, preparing to meet his fate.

But what he didn't expect was that Chen Xuan's Eighteen Level Pagoda did not fall for a long time.

Instead, Chen Xuan's voice came, "Your performance just now made me greatly admire you. Now I give you two choices."
