Chapter 574: The Sect Master's Position Pressures the Spiritual Wood
Baishan and Qingyuan Sect have been particularly lively in recent days. After Sect Master Fang Qingyuan rushed over from Qiyun, people from other forces began to visit Qingyuan Sect in an endless stream.
Oh, that's not right. He cannot be said to be the leader of Qingyuan Sect. He should be the former leader of Qingyuan Sect. Since Fang Qingyuan left for Baishan, he automatically resigned from the position of the first leader of Qingyuan Sect. Now the position of leader of Qingyuan Sect is still vacant.
Now Fang Qingyuan is not here, and he left Qiqi in Qingyuan Sect before leaving. Qiqi was bored and wandered around. Today, she hid in the back mountain and accidentally heard some talk about the next leader of Qingyuan Sect.
Qiqi hid her tracks, but it wasn't really hiding. With her cultivation at the late Jindan stage, among all the cultivators in Qingyuan Sect, no one could find her as long as Qiqi didn't want to reveal herself.
When Qiqi was strolling in the back mountain, she heard two voices talking, and Qiqi was familiar with the voices of these two people.
They quietly came to a big tree and lay down. Qiqi stuck her head out and saw Liu Xun talking to Jie Xuanli.
Liu Xun, as the head of Qingyuan Sect's general affairs, has been in charge of Qingyuan Sect for nearly forty years. When Fang Qingyuan often does not take care of things, Qingyuan Sect usually listens to his orders.
Liu Xun is now over a hundred years old, and among the foundation-building cultivators, he is already middle-aged.
From the gray hair on Liu Xun's temples, we can see how hard he has worked over the years.
Jie Xuanli, on the other hand, has a completely different image. He has a wasp waist and an ape back, a straight body, and firm and powerful eyes. His years of practice have given him a more otherworldly aura.
As the deacon in charge of the Qianxiu Hall in Qingyuan Sect, Jie Xuanli did not care much about the sect's affairs and focused on his cultivation. That was why he was able to reach the late stage of foundation building at the age of less than eighty. This speed was faster than Fang Qingyuan's back then.
This is the benefit of having the support of a powerful sect. When Fang Qingyuan was practicing, he had to rely on himself for most of the practice materials during the foundation-building stage and could not rely on the sect much. But now, with the development and growth of Qingyuan Sect, the benefits distributed every month are many times stronger than before.
At the moment, Qiqi didn't know why Liu Xun and Jie Xuanli were staying here. She thought about it and decided to listen to what they said to decide whether to tell Fang Qingyuan.
Liu Xun and his companion, who were a mile away from Qiqi, had no idea that Qiqi was eavesdropping from a distance. They only saw Jie Xuanli saying:
"Now that the Sect Master has returned, have you considered passing the position of Sect Master to you? In the past few years when the position has been vacant, you have been working as the Acting Sect Master, and all of us in the Sect are convinced."
Xie Xuanli's attitude was quite respectful, while Liu Xun said in a deep voice:
"The sect master has his own plans. Even if he doesn't pass it on to me, I can accept it willingly. Everything depends on the master's mind."
"But except for you, we won't accept anyone else's advice. Just relying on Jiang Wanqin? I won't agree."
Liu Xun and other high-level officials all knew that Fang Qingyuan had taken Jiang Wanqin's soul lamp and went out to look for someone. They all understood Fang Qingyuan's intention. Now was the day to decide the second leader of the Qingyuan Sect. At this time, Fang Qingyuan obviously wanted to support Jiang Wanqin to take the position.
When Jiang Wanqin was mentioned, Liu Xun's eyes narrowed slightly and he remained silent.
Xie Xuanli took the opportunity to say:
"You have worked hard for the sect for decades, but what did Jiang Wanqin do? You have been away for more than 20 years, not caring about anything. Where was she during the outer sea disaster? Where was she during the White Mountain War?"
"Okay, these are my responsibilities, not hers. It's useless for you to say this."
Liu Xun stopped talking about Xuanli and waited for a few seconds before he said:
"As for the sect's affairs, it's not that whoever contributes the most will definitely get the upper hand. Without the support of the sect master, what's the use of my ability to do things? If Jiang Wanqin succeeds in forming a pill, for the sake of the sect, let Jiang Wanqin take the position of the second sect master. This is the most beneficial to the sect."
Speaking of the issue of cultivation, Xie Xuanli sighed. This was an unsolvable problem. If Jiang Wanqin successfully formed a golden elixir, she would only have another 400 years to live, while Liu Xun would only have about 100 years at most.
This three hundred years of gap cannot be erased under the Great Zhou Academy's feudal system, nor can it be replaced by merit.
However, after Xie Xuanli was silent for a few breaths, he seemed to remember something and added:
"I heard that the Nangong family in Qi Nan City has a fifth-level elixir that can forcibly raise the realm of a cultivator in the late stage of foundation building to the early stage of golden elixir after taking it. Naturally, the lifespan will be close to 500 years, but the cultivator will not be able to practice anymore. Since the Nangong family in Qi Nan City has this kind of elixir, doesn't the Tian family where the ancestor is from have it?"
Hearing this, Liu Xun was displeased and said in a harsh voice:
"How can I cause trouble for the ancestor? Just think about it and you will know how precious this kind of medicine is. I can't do that."
"This is not a question of whether it is troublesome or not, but a question of whether you can contribute another three hundred years to the sect, Master. This is not just a matter for you, but a matter for our entire sect. I think we can talk to the ancestor about this matter."
After hearing Jie Xuanli talking about the entire sect, Liu Xun's attitude was not so resolute. Three hundred years of life span, who wouldn't want it?
When the matter came to this point, the remaining two stopped talking about it and started talking about various trivial matters. Qiqi was satisfied when she heard this. She decided to tell Fang Qingyuan about this matter after he came back.
Soon, Fang Qingyuan returned to Qingyuan Sect, bringing back not only himself, but also Jiang Wanqin, Lou Yuan, and a little girl.
Jiang Wanqin's return caused a huge wave in Qingyuan Sect. She was the first Jindan cultivator in Qingyuan Sect who had formed a golden elixir on her own since Fang Qingyuan. In other words, Qingyuan Sect finally had a second Jindan cultivator.
After Fang Qingyuan formed his Nascent Soul, the Qingyuan Sect began to show a very strange situation. Below the Nascent Soul ancestor, there were actually a group of Foundation Establishment and Qi Refining cultivators, and there was not a single Golden Core cultivator, the most important one.
Now Jiang Wanqin has filled this gap and brought Qingyuan Sect back to normal.
Shortly after Fang Qingyuan returned, Qiqi found Fang Qingyuan and told him about Liu Xun's idea.
In response to this, Fang Qingyuan pondered:
"Who do you think I should hand over the position of the next sect leader to?"
Qiqi listened to Fang Qingyuan's question with a nervous look on her face:
"Hey, you ask me, I don't know, I'm just a squirrel bear, you shouldn't ask me about this kind of thing."
Qiqi rubbed her little paws, unable to give any advice. She was not interested in such things. The reason she told Fang Qingyuan about this was just to share it with him.
Fang Qingyuan smiled faintly and stopped teasing Qiqi. He already had a candidate for the next leader of Qingyuan Sect.
Although Jiang Wanqin has already reached the Jindan stage, her personality makes her unfit to be the sect leader. If she is forced to take the position and tries to seize power without caring about the affairs of the sect, it will be a disaster for the Qingyuan Sect.
Liu Xun is the popular choice for the next sect leader. He is capable and skillful. Various events over the years have also tested his abilities, and he is suitable to be the sect leader.
As for the issue of the fiefdom and protection of the Great Zhou Academy that others were considering, Fang Qingyuan did not take it to heart. As long as he was there, it would be much more reliable than the promise of the Great Zhou Academy. If he was gone, there would be no point in Jiang Wanqin taking the position.
As for Liu Xun's longevity, there is no rush for it at the moment. Liu Xun still has a hundred years. In addition, with the longevity elixir and the purple crystal spirit fish he possesses, it will not be a problem for him to live another thirty or forty years.
In addition, Fang Qingyuan has a backup plan, which is to force Liu Xun to form a golden elixir. The Tian family does have this kind of elixir, and if he eats it, he will most likely become a golden elixir cultivator.
Although he will not be able to practice cultivation in the future and his combat power is at the bottom of the Jindan level, he is still a Jindan cultivator after all, and it is indeed good to live another three hundred years.
Therefore, this kind of elixir is quite rare for the Tian family, and only a few are produced every sixty years. Fang Qingyuan feels that with his ability, he can exchange one from the Tian family for Liu Xun to use.
To survive in Baishan, Jiang Wanqin is not suitable to be the sect leader. Only Liu Xun is suitable. As for the arrangement of Jiang Wanqin, Fang Qingyuan currently has two considerations. The first is to let her stay in Baishan Qingyuan Sect as an elder and be in charge of passing on skills.
The second is to bring them to Qiyun, form their own team, and stay in Qiyun permanently.
Both options have their advantages, but Fang Qingyuan still wants to ask Jiang Wanqin for her opinion and see what she thinks.
Moreover, Fang Qingyuan always felt that Jiang Wanqin's husband was hiding some big secret, but he didn't have the mind to explore it now. Owning an immortal palace was bigger than any secret. As long as Lou Yuan didn't do anything to let Jiang Wanqin down, Fang Qingyuan wasn't going to ask about it.
This is Fang Qingyuan's principle in doing things, not being greedy or meddling in other people's affairs, taking good care of relatives, and working hard to make progress. Until now, Fang Qingyuan still doesn't understand why some people call him Old Devil when he is so good-tempered.
I am so kind!
Fang Qingyuan thought so in his heart.
He took a deep breath, completely crushed the souls of the people in front of him, and then took them into the Immortal Palace. Fang Qingyuan sighed softly and said, "I am still too kind. I left all of you with intact bodies."
After putting the corpses into the Immortal Palace, Fang Qingyuan took out a book and crossed out the names of the corresponding people.
These people are all Tribulation Cultivators at the Foundation Stage. They roam the area near Qingyuan Sect, harassing surrounding cultivators from time to time and affecting Qingyuan Sect's business.
When Fang Qingyuan was here, these people had never been seen before, but after Fang Qingyuan went to Qiyun, these Tribulation Cultivators jumped out like grasshoppers. Liu Xun killed a few of them with a trick, but the rest were even more cunning.
Fang Qingyuan had nothing to do, so he came out to clean up one by one, just as if he was cleaning the courtyard. In a few days, it would be the succession ceremony of the leader of the Qingyuan Sect, and he couldn't let these people be in a bad mood.
After dealing with these people, Fang Qingyuan looked at the list in the book. There were also some enemies accumulated by the Qingyuan Sect over the years, which had to be dealt with this time.
And the name at the top of the book, Fu Long's name, is prominently visible.
Back then, this person bullied me and helped me enter the Golden Core Realm. He then accepted benefits from the Lingmu Alliance and came to ambush me. Although he was defeated by me in the end, Fang Qingyuan remembered this grudge.
Later, Fang Qingyuan was busy with cultivation and had various things to deal with, so he had no time to bother him. Now that he has already formed a fetus, if he doesn't take revenge now, then what is he going to wait until?
Thinking of this, Fang Qingyuan's eyes flashed and he fled directly to the territory of Lingmu League. Before he came to Bomu City, he didn't think about sneaking in. Bomu City was guarded by a fourth-level magic circle. If Fang Qingyuan got close, with his cultivation level, he would definitely be discovered, thus triggering the magic circle and causing panic among everyone.
So Fang Qingyuan first sent a message to Chai Yi, asking him to come out to see him. If he was unwilling to come out, then he would not have to consider the reputation of the Lingmu League.
In the City Lord's Mansion, Chai Yi was handling government affairs. Among the four city lords of the Lingmu League, he was the most diligent. If the Lingmu League did not have a leader, then Chai Yi would definitely be the only candidate for the leader.
When his confidant brought Fang Qingyuan's brief letter, Chai Yi took it and read it, his face immediately turned grim.
After thinking for a few moments, Chai Yi did not dare to delay, and told his confidant to pass the matter to the other city lords. He went out to deal with Fang Qingyuan first to avoid triggering bad luck for Fang Qingyuan.
Fang Qingyuan was sitting cross-legged on a hilltop outside Bomu City. At this time, several figures flew quickly from the distance. When they were three miles away from Fang Qingyuan, they stopped in the clouds, landed on the ground, and began to climb the mountain on foot.
A three-mile distance is nothing for a cultivator. Chai Yi did this on purpose to show his respect to Fang Qingyuan.
As Chai Yi walked up the mountain, the three-mile distance passed in a flash. When Chai Yi saw Fang Qingyuan's face, he paid his respects without hesitation.
Seeing this, Fang Qingyuan gently raised his hand and helped Chai Yi up. As for the others, he didn't care.
"City Master Chai, I used to call you uncle. You and my master are old friends, and we are equals. Although I have already formed a fetus, it is not appropriate for me to accept your gift. Let's get along as fellow Taoists."
Upon hearing this, Chai Yi showed some gratitude on his face. He took two steps forward, his tone still humble:
"I wonder why Sect Master Fang asked me to come here today? As long as I can do it, I will never refuse."
"It's very simple. The main reason I returned to Baishan this time was to settle the grievances of the past. I want to get back what I did to you in the past, so that I won't have to settle the grievances and the demons in my heart when I practice in Qiyun in the future, which will hinder my path forward."
Hearing this, Chai Yi's heart skipped a beat. Fang Qingyuan must be hiding something.
Chai Yi thought back to the grievances between Lingmu League and Fang Qingyuan over the years, feeling quite helpless, and then his eyes turned resolute.
"What Sect Master Fang said is very true. The grudges from the past must indeed be settled. However, I was the one who manipulated everything back then. If Sect Master Fang is willing, I am willing to pay with my own life."
As he said this, Chai Yi was about to sever his own meridians, but Fang Qingyuan raised his eyebrows, released and then retracted his domain, destroying the spiritual power in Chai Yi's body.
"Why do you think so, Lord Chai? You should do your job. Our two families were fighting for interests before. It has nothing to do with you personally. Although you used tricks, you also worked for the Lingmu League. I don't hate people like you, but that Fu Long back then had a bad mouth. I must make him die."
Fang Qingyuan thought back over the years and found that the attack by the Lingmu League against him was not actually despicable. The most important thing was that the Qingyuan Sect did not suffer any losses. The ambush by Fu Long was because he was smuggling supplies to the Dan League, and the subsequent attacks were also due to orders from above.
Fang Qingyuan quite admired Chai Yi, a man who was truly willing to risk his life for the Lingmu League. In the absence of a blood feud with the Qingyuan Sect disciples, Fang Qingyuan didn't mind letting him go.
Of course, the prerequisite is that Chai Yi must hand over Fu Long first.
"I'll give you seven days to bring Fu Long to me, dead or alive. If you can't do it, then it won't be too late for you to commit suicide."
"Seven days? Okay, it's a deal!"
Finding Fu Long in seven days and bringing him to Fang Qingyuan was not an easy task, but Chai Yi had no other choice. Fang Qingyuan had already formed a baby, and that was the most important thing.
After watching Chai Yi lead everyone away, Fang Qingyuan still sat cross-legged here. He did not plan to leave for the next seven days. He wanted to see whether the two Nascent Souls of the Lingmu League would come out to help Chai Yi settle the matter.
A few years ago, because I entered Baishan, these two teamed up to fight against Xiong Feng, and seriously injured Xiong Feng, but Chai Ping and Chai Guan were not unscathed either, and their injuries may not have healed yet.
The injuries suffered by the Nascent Soul body are more difficult to heal than those of Xiong Feng's physical body, and the three magical powers that Fang Qingyuan comprehended during the Nascent Soul tribulation have not yet been truly demonstrated to the world.
Now he took the initiative to cause trouble for the Lingmu Alliance, one to vent his anger for himself and Xiong Feng.
Secondly, it is also to build momentum for the Qingyuan Sect and show its strength. He wants to tell everyone in this way that our Qingyuan is very good at fighting, and most importantly, we are particularly vengeful. It doesn't matter if you provoke me, as long as you can afford the revenge.
Therefore, whoever wants to attack Qingyuan Sect in the future should consider whether he can escape the pursuit of a petty-minded Nascent Soul cultivator.
Just like this, Fang Qingyuan sat peacefully on this nameless hill, and the information about him instantly spread to the desks of all the top leaders in Baishan.
No more in the evening as I had something to do. I have written nearly 90,000 words this month, which is more diligent than all the previous months, ^_^.
