Chronicles of Celestial Origins

Chapter 823 Fighting for quotas

A few months passed in the blink of an eye. After Fang Dasheng attended the birthday banquet of He Yunlong, the legion steward, the two took the Leizi boat back to Xuantang City.

This time, the two of them had no chance to ride on the prosperity of Taixuanzong. Although Fang Dasheng was regarded as a prince in Xuantang City, he was a little-known figure in Donglai County. Taixuanzong's shops in this city were all made of liquor. He had no choice but to spend 20 million spirit stones to buy a boat ticket since he was not responsible for the virtual or even combined level monks.

Tang Ning originally planned to mention the plateau thing to him to see if he could be brought to Xuantang City to arrange a position. However, after seeing the situation, she decisively gave up the idea.

Not to mention anything else, the travel expenses alone cost tens of millions of spiritual stones. Who will pay for this?

We can't let Fang Dasheng pay for another ferry ticket for no reason!

……………

In the Tianniu Mountains, in the Yugan Cave, Tang Ning bowed and took a seat as instructed. She turned her hand over and handed him a wooden box, which contained ten high-grade spiritual stones: "Thank you, Uncle, for always taking care of me. Please give me a few Thin things, let’s show respect.”

Yu Qian took the wooden box, put it aside and said with a smile: "I heard that you went to Donglai County with Uncle Fang this time?"

"Yes, Director Fang was attending the birthday banquet of Legion Manager He Yunlong, and he took me with him." Before Yu Qian could ask further, Tang Ning took the initiative to explain.

Ever since Su Yuanhua learned about Nangong Muxue's true attitude, he understood that Nangong Muxue's relationship could not be counted on. Now the only way to be reliable was to hold on to the big tree of Fang Dasheng.

Fortunately, others don't know this, and there is still room for manipulation. He wants Yu Qian to know as much as possible about the close relationship between him and Fang Dasheng, so that he can better seek benefits.

Sure enough, all I could hear was Yu Qian nodding and saying, "It seems that Uncle Fang really thinks highly of you. So, you guys attended Guanshi He's birthday banquet together."

"Uncle Master is joking. How can this disciple be qualified to participate in the birthday party of Governor He? Master Fang took the disciple to Donglai County for other reasons. The disciple's wife, the senior brother, is a good friend of Master Fang. He is currently serving in the county. Master Fang is working as a regular official." I was entrusted by him to take his disciples to meet him."

"Oh? Your wife? I have never heard you mention it before? Is your lady also a disciple of our sect?"

"My wife's surname is Liu Ruhan, and she and my disciple were married on the fingertips. At that time, Nangong Muxue, the supervisor of the Ministry of Liability, passed by Xingang. Seeing that my wife had good qualifications, he took her back to the mountain gate and took her in as his disciple. The disciple's qualifications were patchy. The reason why he was able to stand out from the many Qinghai monks and be accepted by the sect was actually because of Master Neizi's support," Tang Ning said.

He originally didn't want to reveal Nangong Muxue's relationship. It was his biggest trump card, so the fewer people knew about it, the better. How could anyone casually reveal his trump card to others?

But now the situation is different. After talking with Su Yuanhua, he understands that this trump card is no longer useful, or in other words, he has never really owned this trump card.

In this case, just put all the cards in your hand on the table and let others know about the relationship between him and Nangong Muxue, and use this relationship to benefit yourself as much as possible.

Hearing this, Yu Qian showed a look of surprise even though he was a very deep and cunning man. His body leaned forward slightly, his pupils shrank, and he unconsciously put away his previous loose expression, and even his face became a little solemn. .

No wonder he looked like this. In fact, Tang Ning's words were far beyond his expectation. Although he knew that the relationship between Tang Ning and Fang Dasheng was not simple, and he also guessed that there might be a certain background behind them, he never expected that the background turned out to be... So powerful.

Who is Nangong Muxue? The backbone of the master-disciple faction, the inspector of the Ministry of Liability, and a very powerful figure in the entire Taixuan Sect. He also served as the inspector of the Fourth Army and had extraordinary influence in the Fourth Army.

I didn't expect that this ordinary boy from a deep ravine could be related to such a big shot, and it was such a close relationship.

In the master-disciple relationship, the relationship between master and disciple is no different from that of father and son, mother and daughter. It is equivalent to Tang Ning being Nangong Muxue's beloved son-in-law. This makes Yu Qian shocked, envious and jealous.

In an instant, his mind was spinning with thoughts, and all the previous doubts suddenly became clear.

He finally understood why Fang Dasheng valued this person so much, and even made a special trip to say hello to Huang Yuan, asking him to take care of him. It turned out that he wanted to get in touch with Nangong Muxue through him.

Yu Qian has been in the alliance for so many years and has been with Huang Yuan for a long time. He also knows a little bit about Fang Dasheng's background. Although Fang Dasheng belongs to the master-disciple line, his line has long since declined, and there is no direct link between him and Fang Dasheng. There was no big shot in the sect's ranks, so he took the path that required Nangong Muxue to pave the way for his future development in the sect.

The internal relations of Taixuanzong are very complex and intricate. It is divided into three major factions, and among the three major factions, there are many mountains. The major factions are by no means monolithic.

Take the master-disciple line as an example. If we compare it to the vast ocean, after millions of years of development, each branch is like a tributary. Although they eventually merge into the sea, there are also intersections and interactions between tributaries. Differences that do not intersect, such as well water and river water, completely do not interfere with each other.

In addition, it is inevitable that some tributaries are large and some are small. The big ones are like rivers and the small ones are like streams. The difference cannot be measured in miles.

The tributary that Fang Dasheng is on is a smaller branch within the line of masters and disciples of Taixuan Sect.

Their branch is considered a low-profile group among masters and disciples, and has little say.

That's why Fang Dasheng has to constantly dig deep and look for backers, because he knows that if there is no one behind him, no matter how hard he works, it will be useless, and even if he has the opportunity, he will be taken away by others.

The room fell into silence for a while. After Yu Qian experienced the initial surprise, a faint smile appeared on his face: "I didn't expect you to be so secretive! No wonder Uncle Fang thinks so highly of you."

Tang Ning said: "Master Fang asked his disciples to try not to mention the relationship between his wife and Inspector Nangong to outsiders, so as not to attract criticism. If he did something wrong, he would smear Inspector Nangong's face. But Master Uncle asked, I don’t dare to answer truthfully, and I hope that my uncle can keep this secret for a little bit.”

"Don't worry, I'm not a talkative person. What I said today will come out of your mouth and into my ears, and no one else will know about it. Besides, since it's Uncle Fang's order, how can I dare to disobey it?"

"Thank you for your understanding, Uncle Master." Tang Ning turned her hand over, took out a box from her storage bag, and handed it to Yu Qian: "Uncle Master, this is an object that I saw when I was walking around the county town and passed by a shop. I have always been impressed by the way my uncle cared about me. I hope you won’t take it personally with these little gadgets.”

Yu Qian took the box, took a look at it, and put it aside: "You are interested."

The box contained nothing but a piece of ore essence, which was the cultivation material he obtained at Xuanyang Pavilion. If it were put on the market, it could be sold for 100,000 spirit stones. At this time, Tang Ning was doing a favor, so naturally it was Someone who has something to ask for: "Uncle Master, I heard that our team will allocate a place for a third-level mid-level spirit gathering formation in the coming year. I wonder if the disciple will have a chance?"

There are dozens of third-level spirit gathering arrays in the Tianniu Mountains. These spirit gathering arrays are divided into high-grade, medium-grade, and low-grade.

Each team under the alliance has a quota every year and is allocated according to a rotation system. For example, last year it was a quota for the third-level high-grade spirit gathering array, this year it is a quota for the third-order middle-grade spirit gathering array, and next year it is a quota for the third-order low-grade spirit gathering array. Formation quota.

According to regulations, the sixth team under direct control will allocate a place for a third-level mid-level spirit gathering formation next year, which is in line with Tangning's mid-level golden elixir cultivation level, so he came to fight for it early.

Yu Qian smiled: "You have been thinking about the spot in the Spirit Gathering Formation since you first came to our team. If I gave it to you, others would inevitably criticize you! You know, there is no one in this team who doesn't miss this spot."

Seeing his expression, Tang Ning knew that something could be done, and hurriedly said: "Each team has at least one quota for the Spirit Gathering Formation. This is the rule of the alliance, and the decision-making power lies in the hands of the captain. Who should be nominated and who should not be nominated? It’s your authority, and all the rules are reasonable and legal. Even if there are any objections, they are just unreasonable criticism by some ignorant people, so why should you care?”

Yu Qian pondered for a while: "Okay! You have been working very hard this year with Uncle Fang, and you have wasted a lot of practice time. You have also made a contribution to the alliance. To compensate you, the Spirit Gathering Array will be held next year. I’ll give you the quota! It’s just right for your cultivation level, but I’m just nominating. Whether you can pass it or not depends on whether it’s approved by the authorities.”

"Thank you, uncle." Tang Ning was overjoyed. After taking care of Yu Qian, the next few procedures were just a formality. He had just arrived and had never offended anyone. What's more, with Fang Dasheng backing him up, the quota for the Spirit Gathering Formation was already there. It's a sure thing.

The two chatted for a few more words before Tang Ningfang stood up and left.
