Chapter 323 Volume C: Fight Against Foreign Aggression and Maintain Domestic Stability, Proceed Cautiously Step by Step
Chen Huaisheng was also shocked when he heard this idea and plan.
In his impression, Yao Liwei should be considered a relatively stable character, but such an extraordinary move will undoubtedly greatly discredit those guys in the Chuan Gong Academy who are not enterprising and just want to get benefits.
Moreover, he feels that Yao Liwei's actions are probably not simply to humiliate these people, but there should be follow-up measures, otherwise it would not make much sense to do so.
Who is behind this, You Shaoyou? Or Shang Jiuling or Zhu Fengbi?
The highest core structure of the Chonghua Sect is the troika, the head, the chief elder, and the dean.
Since Li Yu is traveling outside and his return time is uncertain, the position of the dean cannot be vacant for a long time.
Li Yu has resigned from the position of dean, but the sect has not approved it yet, and an acting dean is needed.
If Li Yu can enter the Purple Mansion within three years, he may continue to serve as the dean when he returns.
But if he does not return within three years, then the acting dean will officially take over as the dean, wait until Li Yu returns, and then step down.
At that time, the acting dean may go out to travel and look for secret realms to find opportunities to overcome the tribulation and impact the Purple Mansion.
Not just anyone can easily impact the Purple Mansion.
To impact the Purple Mansion, in addition to reaching the peak level of foundation building, the sect must also prepare sufficient spiritual materials, spiritual medicines and supplies for the time being, and more importantly, it is necessary to find a secret realm for it, and the last step is particularly important.
Without a secret realm, it is almost impossible to successfully impact the Purple Mansion by simply traveling, and it is extremely dangerous.
And if you rely on yourself to find a secret realm alone, it is too time-consuming and labor-intensive. Basically, when each sect prepares its own disciples to impact the Purple Mansion, one of the most important links is to find and prepare a secret realm for the disciples.
This is also why the two major families almost fell out because of bidding for a secret realm key at the Cave Ghost Market.
This is just a secret realm key. To put it bluntly, it is just a guide to the secret realm. Whether you can enter it or how to enter it, there are still many conditions.
And that secret realm is far away in the hostile Western Tang territory, and the risk is extremely high.
But even so, the auction price is extremely expensive, and there is still a lot of competition.
Chen Huaisheng estimated that You Shaoyou should be the acting dean.
At present, he has the highest spiritual realm level among several foundation-building deacons and elders, and is at the seventh level of foundation-building. In the next ten to twenty years, let's see if he can advance to the peak of foundation-building and then impact the purple mansion.
Once You Shaoyou becomes the acting dean, the position of the deacon of the Transmission Court will be handed over to someone else. With Wu Tianen taking over the Internal Affairs Court and Wang Yao's qualifications being too shallow, Xu Muyang and Ma Daochun are both possible.
But Chen Huaisheng knows that Xu Muyang has a soft personality and lacks courage, especially in the case that the deacons of the Transmission Court and the Law Enforcement Court may have to serve concurrently, this position is even more important.
It is estimated that Shang Jiuling and Zhu Fengbi will not give this position to Xu Muyang, so only Ma Daochun, the deacon of the Reception Court, is most likely to transfer.
Chen Huaisheng is not familiar with Ma Daochun, but he has learned from various channels that this is a very tough character.
In the past few years, this person has been practicing in seclusion, and finally broke through the fourth level of foundation building and advanced to the middle stage of foundation building.
Although he advanced to the middle stage of foundation building later than Xu Muyang, Chen Huaisheng felt that Ma Daochun's strength might be stronger than Xu Muyang, and he was ten years younger than Xu Muyang.
"Brother Liwei, is Uncle Ma going to take over the Transmission Academy?" Chen Huaisheng smiled lightly and asked casually.
Wang Yao, Yao Liwei and even Zhao Sitian on the side all changed their faces.
Wang Yao and Yao Liwei were surprised that Chen Huaisheng's sense of smell and analysis were so sharp, while Zhao Sitian was puzzled as to why Yao Liwei mentioned that he would take over the discipline of the Transmission Academy during this grand event, and Chen Huaisheng thought that Ma Daochun was going to take over the Transmission Academy?
And looking at the expressions of Wang Yao and Yao Liwei, it seems that Chen Huaisheng guessed right?
Wang Yao is already an elder, belonging to the core layer, and must know about the changes in the sect's personnel. As the only remaining director of the Transmission Academy, Yao Liwei must know something about who his future boss will be, but how did Chen Huaisheng know?
Judging from Yao Liwei's expression, it is obvious that he also thinks that Chen Huaisheng should not know, but he guessed right.
"Huaisheng, who did you hear this from?" Could it be Wu Tianen? But Wu Tianen shouldn't be so tight-lipped, right? Wang Yao was a little confused.
"Master You is about to resign as the deacon of the Transmission Academy and take over as the acting deacon. Although he hopes to see a warning to these people, he will definitely not take the initiative to bring it up. But given Senior Brother Li Wei's personality, Master You will definitely not do it if he does not take the initiative, but Senior Brother Li Wei did it. It must be instructed by a certain master uncle who will take over the Transmission Academy. Master Xu has a gentle personality and will not do it. The only one who can do it is Master Uncle Ma who has long been disgusted with him. Are you going to take over the Transmission Academy? Who will take over the Zhikeyuan?"
In just a few sentences, he analyzed the problem thoroughly and clearly, which made several people look at him with new eyes, and Zhao Sitian was even more impressed.
Knowing that this was not leaked to Chen Huaisheng by Wu Tianen, but was guessed by Chen Huaisheng himself, Wang Yao was relieved and said with a smile: "Are you sure that I want to go to the Zhikeyuan?"
The Zhikeyuan is responsible for internal and external reception, but more importantly, it is necessary to grasp external intelligence, including Guo Chongdao in Bianjing, who is also under the jurisdiction of the Zhikeyuan deacon.
"When Uncle Ma leaves, who will go if you don't go? You can't let Master Xu go, right? Senior Brother Wang, you know that the task of the guest house is not light at this moment. Just watch, maybe this winter is not over yet, things will keep popping up. , Zhikeyuan must anticipate the enemy’s opportunity and take the initiative.”
Chen Huaisheng joked.
Chen Huaisheng sounded like he said it casually, but Wang Yao had a serious expression on his face, "Huaisheng also feels it?"
There were only four of them sitting in their row.
The Chonghua Sect rebuilt the Chonghua Terrace on the site of the original Dongxuan Sect viewing platform and used it as a venue for the sect to hold major ceremonies.
This is a large square square made of jade and stone.
The original base has been preserved. When the Chonghua faction came in, the square was a place full of grass and shrubs. After cleaning and repairs, it has basically restored its old appearance.
The viewing platform is distributed in a stepped manner, facing south and facing north, high in the north and low in the south, narrow in the north and wide in the south.
At the top are the positions of the head, the first seat and the head court. The head is in the middle, and then on the side are the positions of deacons and elders.
The next level down are the disciples of the inner courtyard of the Chuangong Academy, and the direct disciples of the head are also eligible to sit in this column.
Logically speaking, Yuan Wenbo was also qualified to sit here, but he probably felt that he was only at the fourth level of Qi Refining and was a bit embarrassed, so Yuan Wenbo took the initiative to sit on the third floor.
Wang Yao was supposed to take his seat, but none of the top bosses had arrived yet, so he just sat here and chatted with a few people.
There were more than twenty seats on this floor, but they were sparsely populated. Apart from a few of them, there were five or six older people sitting together in the inner hall at the other end.
Among them was Qiao Zhun, who was also an acquaintance of Chen Huaisheng, and looked at him with complicated eyes from time to time.
"Haha, can you not feel it? Don't Senior Brother Yao and Senior Brother Zhao feel it?" Chen Huaisheng laughed, "Although I have just returned to the mountain not long ago, I heard that both Tianhe Sect and Fengyi Sect seem to be a little restless? The Ning family in Youzhou seems to be a little dissatisfied with our recruitment of disciples, but they don’t seem to jump out directly?”
"Of course they won't come out so boldly. There are always ways to let some characters who don't know life and death come to provoke trouble, and there are also some uncertain factors..." Wang Yao shook his head, "The tree wants to be quiet but the wind doesn't stop. , The intention of the head master and the first master uncle is to be cautious and patient, and wait and see what happens, but I am a little worried that if I don’t counterattack in time, I am afraid that others will take advantage of it..."
"Isn't it said that Jinzhou Yuelu Sect is putting pressure on Lingyun Sect? Lingyun Sect is already a little overwhelmed. If Lingyun Sect really collapses completely, isn't He Sect afraid that Yuelu Sect will take the opportunity to take down Wei Huaidao that day?"
Chen Huaisheng's rhetorical question also surprised Wang Yao.
This kind of news was also known after it was confirmed that he was going to take over the Zhike Courtyard. Why did Chen Huaisheng know about it again?
Seeing that Wang Yao was suspicious, Chen Huaisheng could only add: "My accompanying relative is in Yuelu Sect, and I heard about some situations in this regard last year."
Several people laughed, a little weirdly, obviously they all knew the identity of Chen Huaisheng's escort.
Chen Huaisheng was helpless, but since he had already taken the blame, he didn't care.
"I'm afraid Lingyun Sect will not be crushed by Yuelu Sect so easily, right? After all, there are two real people from Zifu. Does Yuelu Sect really not care about Jiulian Sect behind Lingyun Sect?" Wang Yao hesitated, " Huaisheng, did you hear something?"
"I heard something, but it's hard to say. The Jiulian Sect is in a very bad situation. I doubt how much support it can give to the Lingyun Sect."
Chen Huaisheng said it very tactfully, but he was sure that the information he got from Tang Jingtian was accurate.
The Jiulian Sect is now too busy to take care of itself. If something really happens, whether it is the Lingyun Sect or the Chonghua Sect, he estimates that the other party will just stand by and watch, unable to provide any substantial support.
Moreover, when Chen Huaisheng passed by Minjialou when he returned to Hebei from the East China Sea, Min Qingyu went back and learned some things.
According to the news from the Min family, after Lingyun Sect entered Dahuai Mountain, they were continuously attacked by monsters, and there were also subsequent attacks by alien cultivators and rogue cultivators. They were always in a passive situation of being beaten.
The morale within the sect is also very low, and it is said that many disciples have quietly left the sect and fled back to Da Zhao.
This is an extremely dangerous sign.
Perhaps the drastic change will occur within two to three years, or even a year and a half. In other words, Lingyun Sect will most likely not be able to survive for long, and Jiulian Sect will not be able to provide it with substantial support.
How should the Chonghua faction respond at that time?
