Lord of the night.

Chapter 1164 The Night Devil's Ambition [Two in One]

The message came.

Chen Xi sighed, stood up, pulled Fang Che up, and said, "Let's go. The last scolding is coming. We have to go through it anyway... It's unavoidable."

Fang Che said unhappily, "Anyway, I'm not the one being scolded. In fact, I accompanied you even on this trip to the Ghost Confinement Room. Do you think I'm really stupid and can't see that?"

Chenxi sighed and smiled bitterly.

This is true.

Strictly speaking, Night Demon did nothing wrong. At most, he was charged with the crime of Roaring in the Hall.

Being locked up with myself was actually caused by myself. It was just to repair the relationship with myself.

"Okay, okay, I'll compensate you after we get out."

Chen Xi thought about having to face his subordinates when he returned, and couldn't help but sigh again.

"Ten million top-grade spirit crystals will be enough as compensation."

Fang Che said.

"roll!"

Chen Xi was furious: "Ten million, you might as well fight me to the death!"

"Now that my cultivation has recovered, I can't beat you."

Fang Che sighed.

"It's good to know."

Amidst the verbal sparring, the two were taken to Yan Nan's study.

There are only two people in the study.

Yan Nan, Chen Gu.

At this moment, the two deputy chief leaders looked at the two people coming in, their eyes flickered, and their faces darkened at the same time.

"Meet Vice Chief Master Yan, meet the ancestor."

"I am here to see the two deputy chief leaders."

The two men came in and knelt down obediently.

Yan Nan and Chen Gu didn't speak for a long time.

Let the two of them kneel.

The atmosphere was heavy.

After a long while, Yan Nan's voice sounded with a hint of anger: "Are you two...well?"

The two of them didn't dare to say anything.

"Two bastards! One is young but lawless, and the other is old but still acts like a brat!"

Yan Nan patted the armrest of the chair and said calmly: "If I don't let Ao Zhan catch you, are you going to destroy Shenjing for me?"

"Go out and listen. Right now the entire Shenjing is hotly discussing the mighty deeds of you two great heroes!"

"If you guys keep fighting, the Guardian's City of Bumpy will have to hold a celebration party!"

Yan Nan slammed the table and said, "How could you do such a stupid thing? Night Demon! Do you know who you are? Huh?"

"I am guilty! I deserve death!"

Fang Che readily admitted his mistake.

"Chenxi!"

Yan Nan's voice became more solemn, and he said calmly: "You are over nine thousand years old, have you lived like a dog?"

"My grandson knows his crime! My grandson knows he was wrong!"

Chen Xi knelt there and dared not move.

He knew that Yan Nan's beatings on the two people were different.

It's gentle on the night demon, but heavy on myself.

"After five days of confinement, your mind isn't confused anymore? Huh?" Yan Nan asked.

"Yes, Vice-chief, during my confinement, I had a very pleasant conversation with Palace Master Chenxi, and we both reviewed the incident. This was entirely my fault. I did not take Palace Master Chen's status into consideration, which was truly an offense. I am guilty of committing an offense. Moreover, I was young and hot-tempered, and I relied on the Vice-chief's favor to act lawless and kill people on the spot... All the faults are on me alone!"

Fang Che said with a sad face: "I am willing to be punished."

Chen Xi hurriedly said, "My grandson has repented in there. This matter has nothing to do with Lord Ye Mo. It was because of my grandson's favor over the years that I became arrogant and lost myself. I took advantage of my power to bully others. I bullied the Night Demons from the bottom. I have no foundation in the upper levels. I obstructed public affairs, made trouble unreasonably, and used my family background and power to oppress others. This led to the matter getting out of control. All the blame lies with my grandson. I accept the punishment. This matter has nothing to do with Lord Ye Mo at all."

Yan Nan's expression became interesting: "You two... became sworn brothers in there? Have you gone from being enemies to being afraid of each other being punished?"

"Palace Master Chen, please give me some face. We had a long talk and both of us felt that we had met too late."

Fang Che said seriously: "Moreover, Palace Master Chen is a man who understands justice, has a broad mind, and is magnanimous. I am convinced by him."

"My grandson feels that Lord Ye Mo is truly a rising star in our Orthodox Church. Not only in terms of cultivation, but also in terms of his mind and bearing, he is the best of his time. Given time, his future achievements will be limitless..."

Chen Xi.

Yan Nan and Chen Gu sighed at the same time.

"Stop!"

Yan Nan said: "I didn't ask you to come here to have you flatter each other. Since you two have reconciled yourselves, I will save some effort."

Chen Gu said: "Chen Xi, when you go back this time, think carefully. I will give you half a month to reflect on your actions over the past few years, including your family, work, and how you deal with people and the ways of the world. Write me a reflection, and it will be your inspection."

Chen Xi knelt on the ground, his face twisted: "Yes."

"As for this incident, how to eliminate the impact and how to explain it to the Chief Judge. You can figure it out when you go back. If you can't do it well, I will peel off your skin!"

Chen Gu said fiercely: "This time, I am very disappointed in you! I'm telling you directly, I'm extremely disappointed!"

Chen Xi put his forehead to the ground: "My grandson is guilty!"

Yan Nan said: "Chen Xi, please leave first, and Ye Mo will stay."

Chen Xi kowtowed and said, "Yes... Ancestor Yan, Lord Ye Mo is not at fault in this matter. Please...consider your discretion..."

"get out!"

Yan Nan cursed: "Whether he is right or not, I know better than you!"

"Yes!"

Chen Xi bowed and took his leave, then tilted his head to look at Fang Che, and quietly made a chess piece gesture with his fingers, then walked away, looking back every few steps.

Chen Gu rolled his eyes and said, "Fifth brother, you said that this family has grown so big that it is really difficult to manage. You never know when one by one they will cause trouble for you... No matter what, the whole family kneels down and calls you the ancestor. If you manage it, it will really be a headache."

"That can't be helped."

Yan Nan sighed and said, "For example, the Li and Wang families a few days ago, those two families were really wronged. They were just dealing with the Night Demons and thought it was no big deal. Their children and grandchildren died in the plan to raise Gu to become gods, and most of the families of those who came out couldn't afford to offend them. Even if they could afford to offend them, they had some feelings for the family... and couldn't deal with them."

"But a low-level demon won the championship, so it's only natural to deal with this low-level demon. You think it should be fine, right? And although the sect has clearly ordered not to retaliate, who would know about our actions when we are thousands of miles away? What impact can it have, right?"

"From this perspective, both companies are actually very cowardly in their actions."

"But the ancestors of the two families really didn't know anything, and the people who went out ended up killing Sun Wutian's only martial arts bloodline. Don't you think this is unfair?"

"But Sun Wutian is still alive. And Night Demon is still the real boss. He learned the Hateful Heaven Sword from Sun Wutian's martial arts successor... and Night Demon is still alive."

"The result is what you see now. Don't you think it's unfair? Apart from the current family heads, the previous generation is basically unknown, not to mention the ancestors from hundreds or thousands of years ago. But they all suffered the same misfortune!"

Yan Nan sighed and said, "So what you said reminded me of what Li Chengyun said that day: We really don't know! I also believe that he really doesn't know, but how could Sun Wutian let go?"

"And Old Sun's reasons are very convincing: I fought for the sect and died tragically in the Forest of All Spirits, but the sect slaughtered my family again! Can he swallow this?"

Chen Gu said: "So this matter ultimately depends on how strong your fist is. If Old Sun and Night Demon are too strong, those families will be in trouble, that's it."

He said with a headache: "But the family is big, with tens of millions or even hundreds of millions of people. If anyone causes trouble, will they come to retaliate against the entire family?"

"That's not the case. Take your family for example. The problem is that the other party only wants to take revenge on one person, but your family won't agree. So after beating the younger one, the older one comes, and after beating the older one, the ancestors come. In the end, you still have to face your entire family. And the wars are compounded, and the matter gets bigger and bigger. That's actually the truth."

Yan Nan sighed.

"Besides, the family is so large that corruption is really serious. As the ancestor, sometimes I have to watch the family reshuffle, killing and bloodshed..."

Chen Gu sighed: "Just like the luck formation a few days ago, it's really fucking..."

Yan Nan felt sympathetic and said, "Fortunately, my Yan family doesn't have so many troubles."

Chen Gu chuckled and said, "Fifth brother, you're right. When Xiaohan finds you a grandson-in-law, there will be at least a few people with the surname Yan, right? By then, it will be quite easy for a family to rise up."

Yan Nan sighed, "It's still too early. Xiaohan... wait a few more years. I see that there is no one in the younger generation of the sect who can match her. The only one, Feng Yun, was snatched away by your Chen family."

As he said this, he looked at the Night Demon kneeling on the ground and couldn't help but want to kick him twice.

Chen Gu frowned and said, "That's true. With Xiaohan's talent, beauty and future, it's really hard to find someone worthy of her in this world."

Yan Nan shook his head and said, "Let's not talk about this. There's a guy kneeling on the ground. He has been listening to us for a long time."

Chen Gu laughed: "Night Demon."

"My subordinate is here."

"Get up."

Chen Gu smiled and said, "Deputy Chief Master Yan has something to ask you."

"Yes."

Fang Che stood up and stood solemnly with his hands hanging down.

Yan Nan raised his eyes, looked at his face, and said calmly: "How does this ghost confinement room feel?"

"Fortunately."

Fang Che said cautiously, "It's not easy, but luckily I have Palace Master Chen by my side, so I can get through it. If I were alone, I'm afraid it would be hard to say."

"What did you do in there?"

"Playing chess with Palace Master Chen."

"Playing chess..."

Yan Nan and Chen Gu were speechless.

Only then did I remember that Chenxi was also a chess fanatic.

"How's the outcome?"

"Thirty-seven points."

Fang Che recalled and said, "Palace Master Chen has a 70% chance of winning. I have tried my best, and being able to hold out for a draw is already a good result."

"No wonder!"

Chen Gudu suddenly understood: "No wonder Chen Xi changed his stance after coming out. For that bastard, a chess master is like a blessing after a long drought."

"But Night Demon, you are so good at chess?"

Yan Nan was shocked: "When did you practice?"

"There's nothing to do in Sanfang Tiandi, so I play chess every day..." Fang Che looked depressed.

Sure enough, these words touched Yan Nan's sore spot.

"Haha, you're really not doing your job properly." Yan Nan said sarcastically.

Then he said, "Ye Mo, I was the one who handed over the Feng family case to you, but Dao Pingbo and Chen Xi, you are the one who makes the decisions on these two matters. Moreover, there is an element of provocation in this, you will not deny this, right?"

"I don't deny it. It's true!"

Fang Che nodded.

As expected of an old fox, he hits the nail on the head.

“Why do you do this?”

Yan Nan asked.

Then he said, "Just say it."

Fang Che understood, so he said directly: "My subordinates have only been at the headquarters for a short time. We must create the greatest reputation in the shortest possible time!"

"Because, it is estimated that in a few months, I will have to return to the Guardian. My time in Shenjing is extremely limited." "If I do nothing, then when I return, I will still be the Night Demon Cult Leader. And the Night Demon Cult Leader is like a grain of sand in the ocean to the headquarters, not worth mentioning."

“We will still need to rebuild the foundation in the future.”

"If I follow the routine and make friends through normal channels or by using a good reputation, I don't have the time, and it won't be effective."

"Then I will just kill him and leave a bad reputation behind!"

"This reputation is built by being unreasonable, brutal, murderous, and ruthless."

"On this basis, we can no longer be afraid of offending people."

Fang Che hesitated for a moment and said, "Moreover, I also feel that my future cannot belong to any of the nine major families. If I were to position myself in that way, I would surely die!"

"So I define myself as a lone minister of my orthodox religion. Young Master Feng Yun treats me very well now, but I cannot join his camp. Lord Yan Beihan is the one I want to follow and be loyal to, but Lord Yan will not be able to achieve the highest position in the end. And Lord Yan's final status in the sect is also independent of any force."

"So I can only follow this choice."

"In the case of the Feng family, part of it was because I offended the Feng family. In the case of Wen Yipin, I basically offended the Xiang family. As for this incident with Palace Master Chen, although Palace Master Chen personally reconciled with me, I am also an enemy of the other members of the Chen family."

"But this is not enough. I must offend all the other families as well."

"Only in this way can I be independent of the major families, and make the major families not even want to recruit me. Because they can't control someone like me."

"Ultimately, in the shortest possible time, I will leave behind a reputation as a madman. Or, even better, I will become a legend."

"Then I will go back to the guardians, and after a period of settling down, I will return to the sect again, and then I will have my own foundation."

"And the word 'Night Demon' will not be looked down upon anywhere, but it will also not be approached by anyone."

"This is the ultimate goal that I want to achieve."

Fang Che finished speaking in one breath.

He bowed his head and said, "That's what I thought and did. This road is full of dangers and I could be crushed to pieces at any time, but I...actually have no other choice."

Chen Gu's eyes couldn't help but reveal a look of admiration.

He fully understood why Night Demon did this, but, as Night Demon himself said, this road was indeed full of dangers.

At every moment, I am on the verge of death.

There are too many masters in the Only Orthodox Church who can kill Night Demon. Night Demon needs to be surrounded by so many masters, so he can be lawless and domineering.

But my own strength is not enough, it is far from enough.

If Ye Mo met a guy as reckless as he acted, and killed him with one blow just like he did when he killed Dao Pingbo, he would cry so hard that he would not even be able to find his grave!
And you have to admit that among so many masters of the Somali Orthodox Church, such people may not be many, but they definitely exist!
Yan Nan was also extremely satisfied.

Because in his mind, this is exactly the most suitable path for Fang Che and also the most ideal path.

In this way, there is no threat to the pinnacle of power, no threat to Feng Yun, and Yan Beihan can be fully protected.

Moreover, the strength is super strong enough.

If it really comes to that, Yan Nan can finally rest assured.

"Night Demon, if, one day, your strength is high enough, even to the first place in the Cloud Weapon Chart, then what position would you most like to be in? I mean, if."

Yan Nan asked.

Fang Che hesitated.

Chen Gu laughed and said, "You can speak your mind here."

Yan Nan's eyes were burning.

Fang Che coughed and said, "I dare not say it, your subordinate."

"Speak!" Yan Nan shouted.

"I think it's good like that, Chief Duan."

Fang Che stammered, "If it's taller than what Master Duan is now...it would be even better."

Chen Gu and Yan Nan were both stunned.

They both thought that being on par with Duan Xiyang would be enough, but they didn’t expect that this guy wanted to go one step further?
"Why is it higher?"

Yan Nan's face twitched.

"I don't care about anything. I don't care about anything. No one should bother me. I can do whatever I want to do... cough cough cough..."

Fang Che mustered up the courage to say the last sentence: "...I am only responsible to the Grand Master."

"Uh, alive, alive..."

Yan Nan was so angry that he laughed: "So by then, even the deputy chief leaders won't be able to control you? Not even me and Chen Gu, right?"

Fang Che lowered his head and said in fear: "In fact, I was just talking in my sleep. I am not sure about the future or whether I can survive..."

Yan Nan said grimly, "Are you being too modest? What you want most is that even the chief leader can't control you... you can do whatever you want, but you don't want to work hard and be the best emperor in the only orthodox sect. That would be great, right?"

Fang Che looked up in panic, "Deputy Chief Master Yan, please understand. How dare I have such a rebellious idea..."

"Hehehe..."

Yan Nan and Chen Gu both sneered.

The two deputy chief leaders squinted their eyes and kept looking up and down at the daring guy in front of them.

Both of them made "tsk tsk" sounds.

It’s like seeing rare treasures.

"Awesome Night Devil!"

Chen Gu exclaimed: "Even your grandfather Sun Wutian doesn't dare to think so. You are now truly better than your master."

Fang Che lowered his head, sweat dripping from his face, and said in despair, "I don't dare to think so..."

"Hehehe...you don't have to think about it, you just do it."

Yan Nan clicked his tongue and said calmly, "You are now attacking this one and drawing your sword on that one. You have turned Shenjing upside down. Isn't it just to pave the way for that step? Today, I finally understand your wolfish ambition."

"I really don't dare! I really don't dare!"

Fang Che's face turned pale and his eyes were stiff.

Yan Nan snorted, looked at Fang Che, and said lightly: "Not bad ambition!"

"I dare not! I really dare not!"

"Your courage is commendable!" Chen Gu smiled.

"I really don't dare... I just made a slip of the tongue..."

Fang Che stared and weakly explained: "...It was really a slip of the tongue..."

Yan Nan laughed, looking very happy, and said, "I don't blame you, what are you afraid of?"

Chen Gu also smiled and nodded: "As a man, it is normal to have such ambition. I only have one question, why haven't you thought about becoming the chief leader directly?"

Fang Che hung his head and didn't dare to say a word to this sentence.

Yan Nan also smiled: "Speak back!"

Fang Che could only hang his head and said dejectedly: "I... can't worry about that..."

"Hahahahaha..."

Yan Nan and Chen Gu laughed like crazy.

Yan Nan laughed and cursed: "I thought you were afraid of losing the fight, but it turns out that you can't worry about it... Damn it, it seems that you still want to beat my brother!?"

Chen Guxiao's body trembled. He sat on the chair and said, "I have to say, this kid really knows himself. He knows that he is not the type to worry..."

Both of them knew Fang Che's cards.

He was the first one in the Three Worlds to take half a step in a hundred years, and then walked in front of everyone else, becoming the Emperor of Eternal Night.

Moreover, he has innumerable magical skills as well as countless miracles and divine objects from the three worlds. Just in terms of training conditions, he is far stronger than Duan Xiyang.

And his qualifications are much better than Duan Xiyang's back then.

In time, as long as he is given time to grow, a human giant who can rival his big brother Zheng Yuandong will be formed in the future!

It is actually only a matter of time before Ye Mo reaches the position of "second only to one person" as he just said.

But whether he can reach the most ideal state and even surpass the level of "second only to one person" depends on whether this kid can succeed in the future.

But I guess it's unlikely.

Yan Nan and Chen Gu knew exactly how powerful their elder brother was.

But even if it really comes to the point where he is second only to the first person, it is already enough.

His status is equal to Duan Xiyang, and his martial power is stronger than Duan Xiyang.

Yan Nan thought that if it really came to this, Yan Beihan's life would basically be stable from then on, and the Yan family would also be stable from then on.

At that time, except for the eldest brother to take action personally, no one else can defeat the Night Demon together!
As the chief leader, the eldest brother has a vision as vast as the stars. He can give up power for 10,000 years, so how can he not tolerate a night demon? And why would he attack the night demon?

"Night Demon, you have such ambition, but it doesn't matter to us two. It just depends on how far you can go."

Yan Nan said calmly: "However, everything is done, not said. You must be clear about this point. From now on, you don't need to mention this goal to others."

Fang Che thought: I didn't mention it in front of you, okay? You said it all by yourselves.

But he said honestly: "Yes, I obey your order."

Yan Nan was extremely satisfied and even a little relieved. He said, "Do you know why Deputy Chief Master Chen and I talked about the helplessness of the ancestors of the aristocratic families in front of you just now?"

Fang Che said honestly: "Palace Master Chen Xi also mentioned this when he was in the confinement room. It was similar to what Vice-Chief Master Chen said. And what the two Vice-Chief Masters meant was... to let the subordinates not worry?"

Chen Gu had admiration in his eyes and said, "That's the meaning. But if I tell you not to worry, it's conditional!"

"Night Demon, although you act like a reckless man, we all know that deep down you are not a reckless man who only knows how to kill."

Chen Gu smiled. This sentence was very meaningful.

"Yes. Thank you, Vice-Chief Master Chen, for the reminder."

Chen Gu then smiled and said, "But what you said later about not being able to worry about that is also true. You actually have all the abilities. But the only pity is that you don't have the ability to lead a group of people in all aspects."

Yan Nan expressed his infinite agreement with Chen Gu's words.

This is also where he feels most at ease.

Whether we look at Fang Tu who wreaked havoc on the Guardian Continent, or Ye Mo who terrorized the Solipsistic Church, they both clearly had one characteristic: they were not suitable to be the supreme leader who controlled the overall situation!
Someone must take the helm for him!

Whether it is Fang Tu or Ye Mo, their personalities are too intense.

Some things are not unclear.

Lead the light beam while blending in with the crowd; steer the direction while drifting with the flow.

This is what a leader does.

Fang Tu and Ye Mo have one thing in common: the world is corrupt, so I will destroy it and rebuild it!
But this won’t work.

Because the world you create again will sooner or later become as filthy as before!

The Night Demon is not Feng Yun after all.

This is the Night Demon's biggest shortcoming, but it is also its most valuable point!

"Since you know what's going on, just follow your plan."

Yan Nan snorted and said, "I don't care what your plan is, but no matter what it is, it needs strong force to support it! If you have the ability, you can defeat everyone!"

"Otherwise, if you still rely on your power and Ning Zaifei and Sun Wutian like you do now, even if you become famous, people will be afraid of your power, not you, the Night Demon."

Yan Nan stared at him and said, "Do you understand?"

"Understand!"

Fang Che was helpless and said aggrievedly: "But my current rank of Saint King is too low! I can't do it myself."

“Hahahaha…” Chen Gu couldn’t help laughing.

Yan Nan also glared angrily: "What kind of stupid comprehension ability is this? I mean, do I want you to go and kill people yourself?"
