Staying in the sect, controlling beasts and cultivating immortals

Chapter 516: The Elder's Unexpected Arrangement

"You are a rare talent, a genius. Don't be modest. I know everything about you."

In the face of Changsheng's humility, Wang Donghai just smiled lightly, glanced at Yu Changsheng lightly, and said with a chuckle.

There was clear admiration in his tone, but he still sounded calm.

Old Wei lowered his eyebrows slightly and said nothing. Yu Changsheng nodded slightly, feeling a little surprised.

Chen Wencai stood up at the right time and said, "Yes, the matter is just as I said on the road before. The details will be decided by the Third Elder."

"They are not mediocre people either. I think that settling them down properly will be a good thing for our Beast Taming Sect."

Chen Wencai spoke respectfully in a tone that was neither humble nor arrogant, but his words were biased towards Mr. Wei and Yu Changsheng.

Mr. Wei looked at Chen Wencai with gratitude.

When Wang Donghai heard this, he nodded and turned his gaze towards Chen Wencai's face and said:
"You are right. You two are not ordinary people. Wencai told me the purpose of your visit on the way. Since you are Wencai's friends, I will definitely not make it difficult for you."

"There will be no problem for your Wanxiang Sect to move to my Sea Beast Island, and you will also be protected by my Sea Beast Island. Forces outside its million-mile territory will not dare to attack you. You don't have to worry about the things you are worried about."

Wang Donghai said softly, and raised the cup to take a sip of tea. The fragrance of tea filled the air, and the rising hot mist blurred his face, making him look a little mysterious.

Elder Wei and his companions breathed a sigh of relief. Their faces suddenly became a little excited. They clasped their fists and bowed their heads, and said to Wang Donghai gratefully:

"Thank you, Third Elder. The Wanxiang Sect will always remember your kindness."

"It's a small matter," Wang Donghai waved his hand gently, put down the teacup, rubbed the edge of the teacup with his fingers, and looked up at the three people with a calm gaze.

"Mengyao Holy Land does have some strength in the Southern Region, but it has no time to manage the Northern Sea Region. You two, master and disciple, must have been exhausted from the long journey. I dare not say anything else, but you can have a good rest on this Sea Beast Island."

Upon hearing this, Chen Wencai's expression relaxed and he smiled with relief. Yu Changsheng and Old Wei also looked at Wang Donghai with gratitude and excitement in their eyes.

Wang Donghai paused, pondered for a moment, and then smiled softly:
"I see that you and your disciple are not ordinary cultivators. Coming to the Southern Region, it is estimated that it will be difficult for you to fully integrate into this place in a short period of time. In this case, I will not make it difficult for you. I will arrange a sinecure for you. It has the name of my Sea Beast Sky Island, but it will also guarantee your freedom to the greatest extent."

"Then, you will be a deacon elder on the Outer Sea Beast Sky Island. The things you are in charge of are relatively leisurely, and will not interfere with your cultivation. The allowance you are entitled to will also be paid to you at double the normal amount. How do you think?"

After Wang Donghai finished speaking, he waved his sleeves lightly, and the space in front of Yu Changsheng and Old Wei suddenly opened up slightly, revealing two sets of robes and two snow-white identity tokens.

The names of Yu Changsheng and Weidao were engraved on the identity tokens. As for the clothing, it was the uniform of the elders of the Outer Sea Beast Tianbao Deacon.

This scene made Chen Wencai stunned, and Old Wei and Yu Changsheng were also stunned, and they were a little dazed for a moment.

"Cough cough."

It was not until Wang Donghai cleared his throat that Elder Wei came back to his senses. He took a deep breath, his face showing respect and gratitude. After putting away the two sets of clothes and the token, he pulled Yu Changsheng to bow his head and clasp his fists, bowed to Wang Donghai, and said:

"Thank you, Third Elder. We will remember your kindness in our hearts. There is no need to double the allowance. It is a great favor for your holy land to take me in."

"It's okay. Double allowance isn't much money. Take it."

Wang Donghai waved his hand indifferently, took another sip of tea, smiled lightly, the twilight hidden on Changsheng, and he paused slightly as if with deep meaning.

Yu Changsheng still looked respectful, and nodded gently to express his gratitude: "Thank you, Third Elder, thank you for your kindness."

"This..." Chen Wencai was slightly dumbfounded when he saw this. In addition to being surprised, his face showed a hint of complexity. He clasped his fists and wanted to say something to Wang Donghai, but Wang Donghai turned his head and glanced at Chen Wencai calmly and said:

"Wencai, do you have any objections? Feel free to say it."

The tone was calm and the expression was indifferent, but for some reason, Chen Wencai's ears felt unquestionable.

"........."

Chen Wencai remained silent, swallowed his saliva silently, and swallowed back the words he wanted to say. He lowered his eyebrows and whispered: "Third Elder is wise, Wencai has no objection."

"That's good." Wang Donghai nodded gently, then slowly stood up and continued to water the flowers and grass. Without even turning his head, he left a few words and ordered them to leave:
"Some precautions are already in the identity tokens I gave you. I still have some things I need to check and remember. You can leave on your own. I won't see you off. If you have any problems, you can tell Wencai. He will definitely try his best to help you."

Seeing this, Chen Wencai was helpless. He turned to look at Wei Lao and He Yu Changsheng. After giving them an apologetic look, they all clasped their fists and bowed to Wang Donghai before leaving naturally.

"In that case, I won't bother you anymore. Thank you for taking care of today's matter."

"It's a small matter. You can tell me if there is anything later." Wang Donghai waved his hand without turning his head. He just looked at the exotic flowers and plants in front of him and fiddled with them attentively.

His body was slightly bent, his expression was calm, his eyes fell on the flowers and plants, and he smiled. His posture was just like an ordinary person in the world, but when he stood there, his temperament was hard to ignore.

Chen Wencai was silent. He nodded and quietly left the courtyard attic with the two of them.

"call……"

After leaving Wang Donghai's residence, Chengcai let out a long breath, wiped off the non-existent sweat on his forehead, turned around and looked at Yu Changsheng and the others with an apologetic look, smiled bitterly, and said softly:

"I'm sorry, I really didn't expect this to happen. The elders would actually arrange it this way. I think Brother Wei and Changsheng may have been wronged."

"The Third Elder made his own arrangements, which completely disrupted my plan. After all, he is older than me. I wanted to say something, but I was powerless..."

As Chen Wencai spoke, his tone became lower and lower, and his expression became darker and darker, but the bitter smile on his face became more obvious and clear.

Wei Lao patted him on the shoulder in silence. Yu Changsheng also slowly exhaled a breath of turbid air, clasped his fists and smiled gently at Chen Wencai, saying softly:

"This arrangement is not bad. What about the elders? They are one level higher than disciples. Haha, they are free and unconstrained." Elder Wei also smiled and nodded, comforting:

"Coming here is already troublesome. Can you expect everything to be perfect, Brother Chen? And the Third Elder's arrangement doesn't sound problematic. Brother Chen, there's no need to blame yourself for this. If anyone should feel guilty, it should be us, the master and the disciple."

Chen Wencai's expression changed, he gritted his teeth slightly, suppressed the doubts and surging thoughts in his heart for a long time, exhaled a long breath, nodded silently, and sighed.

"Well, I'll have to inconvenience you two for now. I don't know why. Although the Third Elder is usually aloof, in my opinion, this matter is not a big deal. With Changsheng's talent, he can be an ordinary disciple of the Inner Sect, not to mention being an Inner Sect elder disciple. He is more than qualified, and even outstanding. Why would he be sent to be an Outer Sect deacon elder?"

"Although the level of the sea deacons and elders is the same as that of the inner disciples, or even higher, but..."

"What's the problem?"

Chen Wencai pondered for a moment, and suddenly thought of something with some doubts. His expression suddenly changed, and a complicated look appeared in his eyes. He slapped his forehead suddenly, with a look of regret, but more helpless, and pursed his lips and whispered:

"Since the Third Elder knows everything and knows that Changsheng is a rare talent, he still made this decision. Could it be that..."

Chen Wencai swallowed his saliva quietly and did not continue speaking, but there was a hint of doubt in his eyes. The feeling of uncertainty and speculation eventually turned into bitterness.

"Okay, don't think too much. The Third Elder has done this, which is considered to be giving enough face. We can't say anything. We are just troubling Brother Chen for his kindness."

Mr. Wei comforted him softly, but there was no trace of loss in his tone or expression.

For Yu Changsheng and Old Wei, they were somewhat surprised that they could not become disciples of Inner Mongolia, but they did not feel any regret or have any other emotions because of it.

After all, they both knew that they were outsiders, and an outsider could be appointed as an elder in the Sea Beast Island and receive double allowance. This could be said to be a great honor given to the Third Elder, without any flaws.

If Chen Wencai and the other two had expressed some other objections at that time, it would have caused the displeasure of the Third Elder, and they would have been the ones who were ignorant.

Therefore, they could only thank him respectfully. Even Chen Wencai did not dare to say anything under the look of Wang Donghai. To put it bluntly, he was just an ordinary elder of Inner Mongolia after all. Although he was already glorious in the eyes of others, facing this sequence, the elder was still nothing and had no actual say.

I feel helpless and dissatisfied, but there is nothing I can do.

"Ugh."

Chen Wencai sighed, looking somewhat lonely. He looked up at Yu Changsheng and said with a wry smile:

"This is the only solution now. I will have to inconvenience the two of you for now. Just follow the Third Elder's arrangement. I dare not resist his orders."

"Give me some time to figure out the details. I'll go and manage it and find a way to get you from Lower Sea Beast Island to Upper Sea Beast Island."

Deacon elders, although they sound good, they are from the outer sect. Of course, even if they are deacons or elders from the outer sect, their level is exactly the same as that of ordinary disciples from the inner sect.

Normally, most of the people who can serve as elders in the Outer Sea Tiandao are from Inner Mongolia. They have no hope of continuing to advance to the God Transformation Stage in the Sea Beast Tiandao, and the Sea Beast Tiandao is not willing to continue investing resources in their training. When their age exceeds the limit, most of them go to the Lower Sea Beast Tiandao to take up their respective positions and serve the Sea Beast Tiandao sect.

And the title of elder does sound better than being a disciple.

However, the meanings are completely different. Although the two are at the same level, and the latter is even higher, the former represents the future of the sect. As an emerging force, it will receive a lot of resource investment from the holy land and live on the Shanghai Beast Island. The latter was abandoned by the Sea Beast Island and was considered to have limited potential, so he went to the Lower Sea Beast Island to serve as an elder.

However, Wang Donghai's move of promoting Yu Changsheng and Wei Lao directly to elders instead of disciples was something Chen Wencai had never expected.

He could understand Mr. Wei, but Chen Wencai was surprised that such an arrangement was made for Yu Changsheng.

"The Third Elder must be aware of Changsheng's talent. According to my guess, even if it is the worst, he should be trained as an inner disciple. But his actions give the impression of exiling him..."

"Why?"

Chen Wencai was deep in thought, and an idea had already formed in his mind.

"Could it be that it is because Changsheng is too outstanding that this arrangement was made so deliberately?"

Chen Wencai pondered... his heart was extremely complicated. He looked up at Yu Changsheng and Wei Lao, and could only shake his head and smile bitterly, looking apologetic, and said in a low voice:

"Forget it. It's all my fault for not thinking it through. I only wanted to train Changsheng as quickly as possible, but I forgot that he might be excluded again because of his talent. Being too dazzling is not what everyone wants to see, and it will cause others to be wary, so..."

Chuncan didn't finish his words, but Old Wei and Yu Changsheng both understood the meaning. They looked at each other and finally smiled.

"Okay, it's just some small things. Who knows whether it's a blessing or a curse?"

As the three of them were talking, they gradually left the top of the mountain and moved away from the residence of the Third Elder.

.........

.........

At the same time, in the courtyard of the Third Elder, Wang Donghai, who was watering the flowers and pruning the branches, suddenly looked in the direction of the three people outside the attic, with an intriguing smile on his face. He was fiddling with a brightly blooming purple Epiphyllum in his hand and shook his head gently:

"Interesting, can a small barbarian tribe cultivate such a genius? It's really bizarre."

"This Yu Changsheng is also quite lucky. He is in the middle stage of Purple Mansion in his twenties...Heavenly Dao Golden Elixir, Heavenly Dao Qi, nine Dao patterns to advance to Purple Mansion...The Purple Mansion gate is a thousand feet high, he killed Meng Xiangrui who was at the peak of Purple Mansion, and destroyed the Purple Mansion Dao body of Saint Meng Yao... Any one of these conditions is amazing enough. Yu Changsheng is indeed a genius."

Wang Donghai murmured, thinking with his originally calm eyes, and suddenly a chill flashed across his face. He lowered his eyebrows and looked at the bright purple Epiphyllum, and gently applied force with his fingers.

The next moment, the entire purple epiphyllum was broken off the branch. With a gentle touch from Wang Donghai, the originally beautiful and radiant flower suddenly lost its beauty and fell into pieces. (End of this chapter)
