I have a little bit of talent

"Brother Zhang, your Fiery Flame Sect is making a big show of welcoming new members this time. I heard that the number of invitations sent out has exceeded that of previous years. Even my demon clan has received invitations. This is really unusual. Could it be that your master has really achieved something during his retreat this time, and has achieved the Three Flowers Gathering at the Top of his Head?"

The one who spoke was the mighty man, but from his words it could be learned that this man was not a human, but a demon!

Ever since the Great Zhou Taizu and the major sects in Yizhou swept away the demons and heretics, all the evil demons were either exterminated or fled to other places.

The rest were all kind-hearted monsters who had never done any evil. Feeling that the human race was irreversible, these monsters gradually banded together and formed a large sect in Yizhou, the Tian Yao Sect.

Although the Tian Yao Sect was founded by the demon race, its philosophy is to live in harmony with the human race. It never does anything to harm the common people. Instead, it has protected many civilians and made many contributions to the Great Zhou.

Therefore, both the Great Zhou court and the major sects in Yizhou regarded it as one of the righteous ways and did not regard it as evil.

But after all, there is a difference between humans and demons. Although the Tian Yao Sect has also joined the Yizhou Sect Alliance, it has never participated in the management of Yizhou affairs, and seems to be aloof from it.

Under normal circumstances, the major sects in Yizhou would not disturb the Tianyao Sect and would only inform them when it came to important matters concerning the sect.

Although the opening ceremony of the Liehuo Sect was considered a major event, it was only an event for the Liehuo Sect itself. For other sects, it was just a fun event. Therefore, in the dozens of opening ceremonies over the past hundred years, the Tianyao Sect was not notified to come and watch.

However, this time it was contrary to the norm. Not only did the number of invited sects far exceed that of the past, but even the Tian Yao Sect, which had never been invited before, received an invitation to watch the ceremony. This was really unusual.

And this mighty man was none other than the person sent by the Tian Yao Sect to watch the ceremony. His name was Zhou Tong and he was a disciple of the Sect's master. He had a very high status and extraordinary cultivation.

The demon race is different from the human race. Although they have a long lifespan, it is extremely difficult for them to practice cultivation. To be able to transform into a human, they must at least enter the realm of spiritual training.

Therefore, all the demons who roam the world in human form are masters.

The person Zhou Tong was questioning was none other than the Liehuo Sect's Young Master Zhuang Xingquan. The two of them had known each other for many years and could be considered old friends. It was for this reason that the Tianyao Sect sent Zhou Tong to observe the ceremony.

"Whether the master has taken that step or not, no one knows except himself. Even I, his disciple, have no information at all."

Zhang Xingquan smiled bitterly.

“Although I am the Young Sect Master and hold a high position, the daily affairs of the sect are all managed by Uncle Master Situ. Even if there is something major, he will not tell me.

"I'm afraid even Mo Yidao, a coward who doesn't concentrate on his cultivation, knows a lot more information than I do."

At this time, the courtyard was shrouded in the true energy of the soul, and Zhang Xingquan was not afraid that his words would be heard by others.

Besides, these two were his good friends and not disciples of the Liehuo Sect, so he began to complain bitterly.

"Since I became Master's disciple, I have been practicing diligently and sharpening my mind. I have made great contributions to the sect. Whether in talent, cultivation, or conduct and character, I am superior to Mo Yidao.

"As for Mo Yidao, he is inferior to me in every aspect. He likes to wander around and make friends with bad people instead of practicing with peace of mind. Just because he is the disciple of Uncle Situ, he is entrusted with important tasks and receives guests from all sides as soon as he returns to the sect. This really makes me unhappy.

“Master is the same. I am the young master, the one who will take over the position of the master in the future. But before he went into seclusion, he entrusted the sect to Uncle Master Situ and did not even mention my name!

"Brother Zhou, Brother Ye, I'm not afraid of you laughing at me. If you and I weren't old acquaintances, and you came to watch the ceremony just to see me as your friend, I'm afraid the one who would greet you would be Mo Yidao, not me, Zhang Xingquan."

Facing his two good friends, Zhang Xingquan became more and more angry as he spoke, and his originally handsome face seemed a little distorted.

It’s no wonder that he was angry. Anyone who encounters this kind of thing would be more or less annoyed.

Although he is the young master of the Liehuo Sect and the definite candidate for the future sect master, he has never been taken seriously. He doesn't even have the qualifications to interfere in such an important event as the opening ceremony.

On the contrary, Mo Yidao, whose cultivation and prestige were far lower than his own, was given the important task of receiving visitors from other sects just because he was Situ Feng's disciple.

You should know that the person who presides over the reception at the opening ceremony should often be the future clan leader. Although this may seem cumbersome, it is a good job to strengthen personal connections and enhance prestige and status.

What virtue and ability does Mo Yidao have? Isn’t it that he has the support of his master?

"I'm afraid your master has a deeper purpose for making this arrangement. Brother Zhang, don't worry about it. Regardless of your cultivation level or status, Brother Zhang is the only candidate for the next leader of the Fiery Flame Sect."

The youngest of the three Taoists listened to Zhang Xingquan's complaints for a long time, frowned slightly, and said:

"As the chief elder of your sect, Senior Situ has always been flawless in his actions over the years. It is only natural that Senior Situ would be in charge of the sect's major affairs after your master goes into seclusion.

"As for Mo Yidao, although I don't agree with his practice of not concentrating on cultivation, from what I have seen today, he is not an ambitious person and poses no threat to Brother Zhang."

There was some truth in what the Taoist said, and Zhang Xingquan's expression finally looked a little better.

The reason why he was so angry was not only because he was the young sect leader but also because he was worried that his position as the sect leader would be lost in the future and would fall into the hands of others.

At this time, after being reminded by the Taoist priest, he thought about it carefully and felt that with Mo Yidao's personality, he could not be a threat to him, so his anger dissipated a little.

After all, he is only the young sect leader. Even if he does not have any power at the moment, when he takes over the throne of sect leader, won't he be the one who has the final say in the Liehuo Sect?

At that time, what’s the use even if Mo Yidao has more friends?

"Hahaha."

At this moment, Zhou Tong suddenly burst into laughter, which made the two of them stunned.

"Brother Zhou, why are you laughing? Could it be that my embarrassing complaint just now is so ridiculous?"

Zhang Xingquan looked a little unhappy.

"Brother Zhang, you are too kind. What you just said came from your heart. How can I laugh at you?

"I am laughing at what Brother Ye said just now. It seems to make sense, but it is actually bullshit!"

After Zhou Tong said this, Zhang Xingquan felt better, and it was the Taoist's turn to feel uncomfortable.

"Brother Zhou, if you have any opinions, please speak directly. There is no need to say hurtful words. Although you are a demon, you still need to know etiquette.

"I warned you many years ago, but I didn't expect you to still be so outspoken."

The Taoist angrily scolded Zhou Tong.

He thought that these monsters were indeed ignorant and could not be educated. Even when they transformed into human form, they still cursed. It was because he and Zhou Tong were old acquaintances. If it were anyone else, he would have slapped him in the face a long time ago.

"My demon race is not as cunning as you humans. We speak directly. It's our nature and we can't change it."

"Ok?"

Zhou Tong was still nonchalant, but after the Taoist glared at him, he changed his words and was actually a little afraid that the Taoist would get angry.

"Alright, it's me, Old Zhou, who said something wrong. Your Wangchen Temple on Ziyang Peak is a holy place of Taoism, and you, Ye Wangyu, are a Taoist disciple. You should be more tolerant."

It is no wonder that Zhou Tong, as a disciple of the Tianyao Sect's leader, is somewhat afraid of Ye Wangyu. It turns out that Ye Wangyu is a disciple of the Taoist holy land, Wangchen Temple on Ziyang Peak, and a contemporary Taoist, one of the future successors to the Wangchen Sect's leader.
