He guessed there must be something else.
"Your senior sister is the Holy Lord, why don't you ask her directly?"
"This... The Lord Saint is so busy with all sorts of things that he doesn't have time to reply to me."
"Oh, I think you made her angry. Women need to be coaxed. Just go and coax her."
"Nonsense, who made her angry?"
"Hey, you're still pretending. Do you know who proposed to fire you yesterday?"
"Don't keep me in suspense, just tell me directly. Why should I ask you if I already know it?"
"That's your senior sister. You were away from home all year round and didn't really care about the affairs of the Holy Land. Some people have had complaints about you for a long time."
"Some say you're just sitting there doing nothing, that you're not fulfilling your duties as a Hall Master, wasting the Holy Land's resources. But your Senior Sister always suppressed them. However, this time, no one else brought it up; she herself proposed your removal."
This was slightly different from what Zhao Kangping had imagined. He had originally thought that it was that woman Lin Ruowei who had proposed it. Since his senior sister was angry, he just went along with her.
Because he is a natural supporter of his senior sister, and Lin Ruowei is the Supreme Elder's person.
There has always been a rumor in the Holy Land that the previous Holy Lord abdicated early in order to recuperate from his injuries.
If she recovers from her injuries, will she come out and take over the power of the holy land again?
As long as Mu Wanyi's power can be weakened, the difficulty of the Supreme Elder's restoration will be greatly reduced.
But Zhao Kangping knew that according to the original plot, the Supreme Elder was going to be killed and would not live to see the day of seizing power.
However, it was somewhat unusual that my senior sister took the initiative to propose dismissal.
Could it be that she no longer wants to continue to hold the position of Holy Lord?
Well, maybe he's not that important.
There are many people in the Holy Land who support Mu Wanyi to become the Holy Lord, so the Holy Land may not be unable to function without him.
But others supported her for the sake of interests, but he did it out of emotion.
Whether it is the relationship between fellow disciples or the friendship between fellow Taoists who have had physical contact, they are more solid than alliances based on interests.
A thought flashed through his mind and he couldn't stop it.
He suddenly understood something.
"Was there anything else discussed about me in the meeting?"
"What else do you want? Do you have any more dirty secrets? Have you secretly betrayed our Holy Land? Tell the truth."
"Fuck you! You are the one who betrayed the Holy Land. Your whole family betrayed the Holy Land."
The two men have known each other for a long time, and conversations between men are always straightforward, they just say whatever comes to mind.
If they are not very familiar with each other, or if the person in front of them is a woman, they will have to think twice.
Liang Wendi was also joking. He certainly knew that there was no way Zhao Kangping could be a 25-year-old.
This junior brother grew up in Yaohua Palace since he was a child, and he must have deep feelings for this place.
"Oh, I don't think you're capable of that." Although he knew, Liang Wending was still unforgiving. He added, "The Holy Lord only mentioned you in connection with the dismissal. How can you, a pretty boy, think you're so important?"
His words also confirmed Zhao Kangping's guess.
Senior sister is still paving the way for him to become the lord of Chuanliu City.
Anyone who can become the Lord of Chuanliu City basically has a close relationship with the Holy Land.
In the past, the city lords were either retired inner sect elders, or descendants of a family faction in the holy land, and sometimes they were simply relatives of the holy lord.
This candidate must have a certain reputation and must be someone trustworthy in the Holy Land.
However, this person cannot hold an important position in the Holy Land at the same time, otherwise problems will definitely arise if too many positions and powers are concentrated in one person.
If he serves as the Palace Master and the City Lord at the same time, it will inevitably cause dissatisfaction among some people.
He had not thought about it before, but now he remembered the couplet he had spoken to his senior sister on Jingsi Lake.
"Don't be too happy too soon. Even though it's almost certain, there are still some variables."
"There are still variables? Can you finish your words at once?"
"It doesn't really matter. I'll take care of it for you."
If you think about it carefully, it is nothing more than shutting up some people and reducing the resistance he will encounter when he is arranged to be the lord of Chuanliu City later.
Perhaps Zhao Kangping had made many contributions to the Holy Land in his early years when he was young, but that was all in the past.
When he was the master of Yaohua Palace, he didn't teach much about the art of formations.
Although some of the disciples are unwilling to learn this, the elders in the holy land don't care about this.
They think that you occupy the position of the master of one of the seven palaces but cannot contribute to the holy land, which is really annoying in the eyes of some people.
If I take on the role of city lord part-time, those people will definitely make a big fuss.
Senior sister originally wanted to discuss this matter with him first and then announce it in the meeting.
If that were the case, she would definitely give him some face and give him a decent way to step down from the position of Palace Master.
He is really obsessed with women and has made mistakes. He must have really made his senior sister angry this time.
Two men were sitting by a fire by the lake, grilling the spirit fish they had just caught.
After the fish was grilled, they each took a portion.
Liang Wendi took out his treasured fine wine from his storage ring, opened the jar and shared it with Zhao Kangping.
After eating some grilled fish and drinking a few glasses of wine, Zhao Kangping started talking again.
"Was there anything important discussed at this meeting?"
"There are quite a few, like that certain ruins. It seems like there's a collaboration between demonic and evil cultivators. But according to intelligence, that ruin can only be opened at an yin year, yin month, and yin time."
"According to calculations, the best time to open it would be sometime after autumn, approximately two months from now. The problem is that we don't even know where the ruins are located right now."
"Many people are arguing over this matter. Some say our holy land went alone to disrupt the exploration of the ruins by those evil cultivators. Others think we should notify other righteous sects to act together."
"After all, our Holy Land is the leading sect in the Eastern Region. I think we should inform other friendly sects. But many people say that we can send more disciples over to take over the place."
"What do you think?"
"As for me, I think we should also join other righteous sects in this operation. We don't know what the risks are there yet. If we rashly send too many disciples there without knowing the situation, what if it turns out to be a trap? Wouldn't that cause us heavy losses?"
"I think it's best to just send a few elite disciples. There's no need for those disciples whose realm isn't even at the Golden Core stage to join in the fun."
Zhao Kangping remembered that the exploration of the ruins was not a big event, and not many forces were involved in the competition.
The protagonist Luo Xueqing only participated in the exploration of the ruins on her own behalf and with a few friends.
The Zi Yang Holy Land was not involved in the entire process.
Not only did no other people from the Zi Yang Holy Land appear in this incident, even the evil cultivators were not involved.
But this time it’s different. Not only have the ruins been exposed, but the holy land is also interested in getting involved. The situation is far more complicated than in the original book.
Zhao Kangping vaguely felt that such a change was not a good thing.
"What happened next?"
"In the end, there were more people who shared similar views as you and me. After several discussions, the Holy Lord decided to inform the Youzong."
This was finalized.
But he felt a little uneasy, perhaps he had to find a way to sneak into the team exploring the ruins.
He has to eliminate some destabilizing factors that will lead the world into the abyss.
"Dad, you are here."
At this moment, a child's voice suddenly came from a distance.
Zhao Kangping turned his head and saw a boy about seven or eight years old running towards him from a distance.
"Isn't this Xiaohu? He has grown so big." Zhao Kangping remembered that the last time he saw Senior Brother Liang's son was when he was still in swaddling clothes.
However, Liang Xiaohu did not know Zhao Kangping, and the boy looked at him timidly.
"Come and eat grilled fish." Zhao Kangping handed a skewer of grilled fish to the boy.
The boy glanced at his father, who nodded slightly before he dared to take the grilled fish.
"Stinky boy, this is your Uncle Zhao, thank him quickly."
"Thank you, Uncle Zhao." The boy said in a baby voice, and started to eat the grilled fish as soon as he finished speaking.
"Hey, you're such a good son."
But after the little boy had taken a few bites of the grilled fish, he remembered why he had come. He said, "Dad, Mom can't find you. She's very angry. She says you're not teaching your students well. I'll make you kneel on the washboard when you get home."
The boy was simple-minded and did not avoid Zhao Kangping when he said this.
The scene suddenly became awkward.
"Senior Brother Liang, I have something else to do, so I'll leave first." Zhao Kangping stood up and said.
Liang Wending also said somewhat awkwardly: "Junior Brother Zhao rarely comes here, why don't you continue to sit down."
Are you still waiting for your wife to come and beat you with a feather duster?
He also knew that the other party was just being polite, so he said, "No, no, I still have some formation plates that need repairing, so I'm afraid I can't stay with you for long."
Then Liang Wendi did not try to keep him.
Soon, Zhao Kangping slipped away like a thief.
He only slowed down after leaving the territory of Fubao Palace.
"Marriage is really a grave. I, Zhao, can't become such a henpecked husband in the future." Zhao Kangping said to himself.
Although he thought so, he had arrived at the Holy Lord's Temple unknowingly.
He originally wanted to sneak into the Holy Lord's bedroom quietly.
But he was stopped by a woman.
"Palace Master Zhao, please stay. Oh, by the way, you are no longer the Palace Master. The Holy Lord will not see you, so please go back."
The person who spoke was Dongfang Jingrou, who always had a sour face.

"Butler Dongfang, I have something to ask the Holy Lord." Zhao Kangping said with a smile.
Although he didn't like dealing with this woman, as the saying goes, don't hit someone who smiles at you. Even if she wanted to ask him to leave, she should at least be polite.
But he underestimated the coldness and ruthlessness of the Eastern steward.
"I hope you can get away from here as soon as possible, otherwise the Suzaku Secret Guards will ask you to leave, and that will be a bad thing."
Her cold face seemed like an eternal iceberg, without any superfluous emotions.
These words were full of a sense of criticism.
I just don't know whether she was being unfriendly to him or she was conveying her senior sister's intentions.
"Then I'd like to see if the Suzaku Secret Guards have the strength to escort me out?"
As he spoke, Zhao Kangping raised his hand, and sparks flashed in his hand.
Dongfang Jingrou's face looked visibly bad, and her fists were clenched.
You could almost smell gunpowder in the air.
At this moment, a faint voice came from a distance and penetrated into Zhao Kangping's mind.
"Go away, I don't want to see you."
This is the voice of Purple Yang Saint Lord Mu Wanyi, she is conveying the message to Zhao Kangping.
You can tell that she is indeed angry.
