Chapter 584 The Great Change
"I don't know what great changes Qingdao will usher in?" one person asked.

"Xuanmen has decided to abandon the Mubei grassland, and will concentrate its superior forces to use Qinghai as a barrier to fight to the death with Mubei's demon clan and demon sect. At that time, there will be a vigorous battle on Qinghai."

"After the Yaozu and the Demon Sect take down Mubei, they will inevitably go south and push into Qingzhou. The original power structure on Qinghai Baidao will be broken."

"There is reliable news that Taixuanzong is already gathering troops, and now the Daxuanmen in Qingzhou are making intensive preparations."

"In order to preserve combat power and facilitate dispatching and commanding, all the sects in Qinggang may be re-integrated. That is to say, these sects on the hundred islands of Qinghai will be evacuated from their respective islands, and will be subject to the unified dispatch of Taixuanzong."

"The higher authorities instructed us to keep manpower to continue lurking and develop local forces.

Several people were silent when they heard this. "

"I will leave with the large army of Xingang, and go to a new place to develop the foundation. The higher-ups will assign a new chief to handle the affairs of Xingang. Only casual cultivators and fellow Taoists who are lurking in the Demon Sect will be left here, and Taoist friends from the Taoist sect will follow their own. Let the sect go, you go back and issue this order separately."

"Understood." Several people responded.

........................

Inside Tong Quan'an's cave, Tang Ning was sitting opposite him. At this moment, Tong Quan'an's face was wrinkled, his eyes seemed to be a little hard to open, and he was depressed. Sitting there, his spiritual power circulated around his body, as if he was about to break his body at any time. out.

He was still very clear-headed, and he spoke fluently, but he was a little slow. The two chatted for a while, and Tang Ning left. After leaving the room, he came to Luo Qingshui Cave Mansion, saluted and sat down as promised.

"How is it? Have you talked to Junior Brother Tong?" Luo Qingshui asked.

Tangning nodded and said, "I'm not very familiar with many disciples under the Xuande Palace. I would like to ask the head teacher to introduce one or two for me."

"You don't have to worry about this. I'm more worried about whether the Zongmen's production expansion plan will be hindered after you leave Yuanyi Palace."

Tang Ning said, "Implementing a plan depends on the system and rules, rather than relying on one or two people to direct it. If the sect is gone, everyone will run the same. In fact, I am only playing a role in the whole plan."

"If you really want to say how much effort you have made, then there is nothing. Now the plan is being carried out in an orderly manner, and I rarely ask about it. It's the same with me or without me. The head teacher doesn't need to worry about it."

Luo Qingshui nodded slightly, and said with a smile: "I heard that you have refined many Xiaoyang pills over the years, and many disciples of the sect have come to you to buy them. Is there such a thing?"

Tang Ning said: "You know, my little salary is not enough to support the consumption of pills. Fortunately, I have a little knowledge of alchemy and can play a role. On the one hand, I can earn some spirit stones, and on the other hand, I can improve the skill of pills. .”

"If you can refine Huang Yuandan by yourself, the pressure of practice will be much less. In fact, this is because of helplessness. If you have sufficient financial resources, who would like to spend so much time refining pills?"

"I set aside three months every year to spend in the alchemy room. The refined medicines are sold in the shop of Xiuyuanfeng in the medicine department, and only [-]% of the market price is charged to the disciples of this sect. This is also convenient for them. Practice, so as not to toss back and forth in Backbone Shanfang City, so every time the elixir is sold, it will be snatched up."

Luo Qingshui said: "If the sect had more alchemists like you, there would be no need to make any big plans to expand production."

Tang Ning remained silent. Luo Qingshui's words obviously meant something, implying that he wanted to hand over some of the elixir to the sect.

Otherwise, how many alchemists like him in the sect have a lot to do with whether to expand production or not!
The atmosphere in the room changed for a moment, neither of them spoke again, the brief silence made the atmosphere a bit delicate, Tangning said, "I will spend more time refining alchemy in the future, and hand over the refined elixir to the sect. "

Luo Qingshui smiled and said: "It's good that you have this kind of thought, you just set an example for the sect."

Tangning didn't want to get entangled in this matter, and said, "I don't know if Yu Feixiong has returned to Shuiyunzong?"

Luo Qingshui said: "The head teacher of Shuiyun Sect has sent me a letter back, and they will deal with Fei Xiong according to the sect's regulations."

Tang Ning knew that the Shuiyun Sect would not deal with a late-stage Foundation Establishment cultivator because of this matter. The Jiang family was neither a family under their control nor a disciple of the sect, and had nothing to do with them at all.

Although Yu Feixiong killed several monks of Jiang's family, it is really not a crime to say that the so-called legal treatment is just a polite answer, at most it is just a show.

After the two chatted for a while, Tangning left and returned to the cave.

At nightfall, Mu Tiancheng pushed the door open and entered, saluting: "Master Uncle, Master Fang Xiaoyuan from the Staff Department please see me."

Tangning's heart skipped a beat, knowing that it was probably because of her election as the head of the Xuande Hall, "Please invite him!"

"Yes." Mu Tiancheng went away in response, and after a while, an old man with square ears, leopard head and ape arms, and gray temples entered, bowed and said, "Disciple pays homage to Master Tang."

Looking at his gray temples, Tang Ning recalled that when the two first met, Fang Xiaoyuan was still in the prime of his life. Now that decades have passed, the heroic man of that time has now turned into an old man. people.

Fang Xiaoyuan once tried to break through to the Golden Core Realm, but it was a pity that his success failed, and his vitality was severely damaged, and he was hopeless for the Golden Core in this life.

"Senior Brother Fang, you are welcome, please take a seat."

"Don't dare to do it." Fang Xiaoyuan took his seat according to his words: "This time I take the liberty to bother you because I want to invite Master Tang to a banquet in our residence tomorrow. I wonder if Master Uncle will appreciate it?"

Tang Ning knew that this must be him summoning Luo Qingshui's former Xuande Hall to recommend him, just like he summoned himself and others to vote for Luo Qingshui back then.

Immediately nodded and replied: "I will definitely be there."

"The disciple is taking his leave. Tomorrow you will be waiting for the master's fight." Fang Xiaoyuan got up and left the room.

Not long after he left, Xu Wen came to visit and brought news of Zhang Huiyong. Since the last time the two met and talked, Zhang Huiyong would send letters almost every month, briefly describing what he had inquired about.

Tang Ning unfolded the cover and took a look. In the letter, it was written that the Blood Bone Sect has been quite uneasy recently. He heard that the high-level officials had been meeting again and again. Fan Yun had been away for a month, so he didn't know what happened.

Tangning put away the letter and asked, "Has anything happened in the Blood Bone Sect recently?"

Xu Wen replied: "I haven't heard of any major events, but they lost a lot of territory with Qingyangzong in a row."

"I see, you go!"

"Disciple farewell." Xu Wen went away in response.

.....................

In the night of the next day, in front of Fang Xiaoyuan's cave, a ray of light shot towards him, revealing a pair of slightly white temples, a burly male figure.

With a wave of his hand, the talisman was thrown into the thick fog, and after a while, a figure flashed out of the room, bowed and said: "Uncle Hao, Master invites you to enter."

The man walked into the inner room, came to a room, opened the door and entered.

Inside is an elegantly decorated room, with dragons and phoenixes carved on the beams, cigarettes curling around, crystal palace lanterns hanging high, and several men sitting beside the golden nanmu round table, all of them are deacons of various departments of Xuande Hall and Inspector.

"Junior Brother Hao is here, please take a seat." The host Fang Xiaoyuan saw him walk in, got up and said.

Hao Ren sat down as he said, and nodded with everyone. There were a lot of delicacies on the table, as well as several bottles of spiritual wine. Everyone's wine glasses were filled, but no one was eating. Obviously, everyone was waiting for an important event. Characters appear.

Hao Ren knew very well that the so-called banquet was just a cover, and all the people invited to this banquet were the old cronies of the head teacher. Fang Xiaoyuan was naturally the representative of the head teacher, but today the protagonist is not him.

It's no secret that Tong Quan'an, the master of the Xuande Hall, is approaching and will be seated soon. The candidate for the new master has not yet been determined, and needs to be selected by the stewards of the various departments of the Xuande Hall. Inspector.

Fang Xiao called everyone together on this occasion, and what he did was almost an open secret.

There were laughter and laughter in the room, and the atmosphere was harmonious.

After a while, the stone door was pushed open with a creak, and a disciple walked up to Fang Xiaoyuan, whispered a few words, and Fang Xiaoyuan stood up and said to everyone: "Brothers, please wait a moment, I will come as soon as I go."

After finishing speaking, he quickly walked out of the room together with the disciple. Several people in the room were sitting upright, with different expressions. Although the disciple's words were soft, everyone's eyes and ears were so sharp that they could clearly hear him whispering in Fang Xiaoyuan's ear. That is, Uncle Tang is here.

There are only a few Golden Core cultivators in the sect, so it goes without saying who this Uncle Tang is referring to.

Hao Renduan sat down on his seat, and thoughts flashed through his mind. Fang Xiaoyuan's invitation to the banquet must be the intention of the head teacher. Tangning's presence here means that he has the support of the head teacher. Its no doubt.

This is consistent with his previous speculation. Among the nine Jindan monks in the sect, there are only three middle-stage Jindan monks. Except for Tong Quan'an, Shi Mingsong is the master of Qingxuan Palace, so naturally he will not fight for this position.

Only Cheng Shuimin of the Foreign Affairs Council might fight for this position, but he and Luo Qingshui have never been very confrontational.

When Shi Mingsui and Luo Qingshui competed for the position of head teacher, he openly supported Shi Mingsui. If he wanted to fight for the position, Luo Qingshui would definitely not support him unless there was no one else.

Moreover, Cheng Shuimin didn't have much lifespan, so he might not be willing to make trouble.

Among the remaining early Jindan monks, Tang Ning is the most likely to be promoted to this position. Because he is Luo Qingshui's confidant, after Luo Qingshui was selected as the head teacher, he supported Tong Quan'an as the head of the Xuande Hall. Regardless of whether it's public or private, it's definitely safer to leave it in Tangning's hands.

Luo Qingshui, Tong Quan'an, and Tang Ning belonged to the same faction. They successively served as the Master of the Xuande Hall, and they were in the same line. They held this position firmly in their hands.

While he was thinking about it, the stone door of the room was pushed open again, Fang Xiaoyuan walked in front, followed by a handsome man with a warm smile on his face, looking very approachable.

Everyone hurriedly stood up, bowed and saluted, and called him Uncle Tang.
