Changsheng Xiuxian: I can see through everything

Chapter 284: Three Islands Alliance (Subscription Request)

"Don't, Sister Gu, if you do this again, I won't recognize you."

Chen Xuan dodged to the side and said, "You and my wife are close friends. I've taken good care of you over the years. After Brother Zhang has achieved his foundation, remember to treat me to a toast."

"Can my husband build a foundation?"

Chen Xuan smiled and said, "It depends on him. But in my opinion, he should be 70% sure."

A 70% chance of success is already very high.

If Chen Xuan had not healed his injuries and strengthened his magic power, his chances of successfully building his foundation would have been only 30% to 40%.

Madam Gu was immediately overjoyed: "If my husband succeeds in building his foundation, even if Island Master Chen doesn't come, I will drag him to Wolong Island to express my gratitude!"

At this time, Zhang Shuling walked out of the training room. His face was obviously much rosier, and the original frosty look had faded a lot.

"Island Master Chen has shown great kindness, and Shuling will definitely repay him in the future."

Chen Xuan smiled: "Brother Zhang, please don't say such polite words."

"I've been away from the island for a long time, but now I have to go back. If you have time, Brother Zhang, bring Sister Gu, nephews and nieces to Wolong Island for a visit. I'll let Yingxue Tiger Sister be your guide!"

"I will definitely go."

Zhang Shuling promised with a serious expression.

After walking out of Zhang Shuling's house, Chen Xuan said goodbye to the heads of the Zhang and Wei families, summoned the psychic green snake, and flew through the air riding on the clouds. In just half a day, he returned to Wolong Island.

A few days later, news came from the Dongshan Islands about the alliance of the three islands of Wolong Island, Baihe Island and Tianjian Island.

In the alliance announcement, it was specifically stated that the Three Islands Alliance was not targeting any cultivation forces, but was only for self-protection and defense.

If any of the three islands is attacked by other cultivation forces, the other two islands are obliged to provide assistance and send teams to fight together.

What is puzzling is that as the representative of Xuantian Sect in the Dongshan Islands, the Lu family of Yunze Island was excluded from the Three Islands Alliance.

This also means that the Lu family has been completely abandoned and no one is willing to obey the Lu family's orders.

As soon as the announcement of the Three Islands Alliance was made, the Dongshan Islands were in an uproar.

A careful monk discovered that Chen Xuan from Wolong Island was listed first in the signature of the announcement.

This also means that the Three Island Alliance is headed by Wolong Island.

Soon, more and more clues proved this.

Baihe Island and Tianjian Island transferred a large number of monks to Wolong Island.

Gifted immortal seedlings, experienced old monks, women with children, and so on.

All of a sudden, Wolong Market was overcrowded and house rents in the market soared.

Fortunately, there is an abundance of spiritual food and elixirs on Wolong Island, and the prices are low, so inflation has not occurred.

The cultivation school at Longxing Villa has been expanded, adding not only many new students but also many more teachers specializing in certain fields.

Among them, the largest number are weapon refiners and sword cultivators.

War may break out in the Dongshan Islands at any time, and the most defensive place is naturally Wolong Island with its third-level island protection formation.

In order to prevent accidents, it is understandable that the Wei family of Baihe Island and the Zhang family of Tianjian Island moved some of their clansmen to Wolong Island.

It was a tough situation for the Lu family of Yunze Island. They lost face and had to withstand the attack of the Pan family of Yu State alone.

……

Jin Yangzong.

Law Enforcement Hall performance review meeting.

Zhu Jinnian, Li Changfeng and more than a dozen powerful elders are discussing the performance appraisal of the elders in the hall.

One of the elders was speaking and had some complaints about Chen Xuan.

"Since being promoted to elder, Chen Xuan has not done a single serious job."

"In six whole years, he only came back to the sect once, and within a few days he ran back to his island."

"Let alone the sect's affairs, he hasn't even completed a single task in the Law Enforcement Hall."

"He's nowhere to be seen again during this performance review. Hall Master Zhu, I think Chen Xuan should take last place this time."

This elder deliberately targeted Chen Xuan.

If Chen Xuan doesn't take the last one, it will be the turn of his direct confidants.

The other elders all have connections, so they can only use Chen Xuan to take the blame.

"You take a rest first."

Zhu Jinnian looked at Li Changfeng and pointed at the performance review report in his hand. "Elder Li Changfeng, what's going on?"

Li Changfeng asked in return: "Master, what's the problem?"

"Chen Xuan, first place in the performance review, first-class excellence?"

On the performance review report card, the two words "Chen Xuan" ranked first, and were particularly eye-catching among the lists of elders of the Law Enforcement Hall.

"Yes."

After receiving Li Changfeng's affirmative answer, all the elders present were moved.

This is the second time in a row that Chen Xuan has received the first-class excellent grade in the assessment.

According to convention, those who have been ranked first for three consecutive years will be promoted and given a better position.

But Chen Xuan has gone out to start a family.

The first-class grade is basically useless to him.

Zhu Jinnian said solemnly: "Elder Li, please be more specific!"

"Last time, we won the first prize because Chen Xuan presented us with a new type of spiritual rice. The yield per mu increased from 400 catties to 1,000 catties. This expanded the sect's financial resources, benefited the human race, and supported countless low-level cultivators. I hope everyone has no objection."

All the elders present nodded in agreement.

No matter how selfish they were, they could not deny the huge benefits that the new spiritual rice brought to the human race and the sect.

The dissenting elder muttered, "This wasn't about last term. We're evaluating this term now."

"As for this session." Li Changfeng glanced at the elder and disagreed in his heart.

He is too selfish and only cares about the petty gains in front of him. For his own benefit, he wants to suppress the sect's genius.

"The Dongshan Islands have been plagued by misfortunes. The Lu family of Yunze Island was bombarded by the Pan family of Yu State. The Yu family of Mingyang Island defected to the Lingyuan Sect of Yu State. The Fairy Island of the Baihua Sect and the Flying Eagle Island of Yaoshen Valley were both sold to the Yu family and the Yang family of Lu State."

"If it weren't for Chen Xuan's secret support, the Lu family of Yunze Island would have been destroyed by the Pan family of Yu State long ago."

Hearing this, all the elders present became curious.

"I heard that the Pan family of Yu State blocked Yunze Island with six second-grade high-quality warships. How did Chen Xuan provide support?" asked an elder.

"As everyone knows, Chen Xuan is an insect tamer. Coincidentally, one of Chen Xuan's psychic green snakes recently broke through to the second level, awakening its bloodline and realizing the innate ability to soar through the clouds and mist. It can now travel thousands of miles in an hour."

"Chen Xuan received a secret order from the sect and went to the meeting alone, facing the Pan family's foundation-building troops alone. He assisted the Lu family of Yunze Island and airlifted the elite disciples who had split from Xuandu County to Yunze Island. He turned the tide of the war in one fell swoop and forced the Pan family of Yu State to withdraw."

Finally, Li Changfeng added: "The top grade in the assessment is excellent, which is the intention of the sect leader."

Once these words were spoken, it was final.

They are all elders of the sect, so they must have some brains.

No matter how poor the Lu family of Yunze Island is, they are still the face of the Song Dynasty clan.

Jinyang Sect came to save Xuantian Sect’s reputation.

Based on this alone, Chen Xuan was able to get an excellent grade in the assessment.

Whether in the past, present, or the foreseeable future, the strength of the Jinyang Sect is not enough to shake the leadership position of the Xuantian Sect in the Song State.

But this does not mean that the Jinyang Sect cannot strive for more say and get a bigger piece of the pie when distributing benefits.

Everything must be based on merit and strength.

A sect prodigy like Chen Xuan can bring huge benefits to the Jinyang Sect even if he goes out to establish a family.

"Chen Xuan is the top grade, I have no objection."

"I have no objection!"

The elders all expressed their agreement.

"There is one more thing I was about to inform the elders."

After the powerful elders present had quieted down, Li Changfeng continued, "Recently, a message arrived from Wolong Island, reporting that they have formed a strategic alliance with the Wei family of Baihe Island and the Zhang family of Tianjian Island of Qianji Sect, aiming to support each other and jointly defend themselves."

As soon as these words were spoken, the elders soon discovered something unusual.

"Three-island alliance? Does it exclude the Lu family of Yunze Island?"

However, soon an elder cheered, "Great! Elder Chen is indeed capable of getting things done!"

"The Lu and Pan families are currently locked in a war. The fact that the Three Islands Alliance didn't include the Lu family is truly a remarkable achievement!"

It can not only demonstrate the strength of Jinyang Sect, but also stay out of it and watch the changes.

"Elder Chen is truly wise!"

"In this case, the Dongshan Islands will be headed by our Jinyang Sect!"

The elders present spoke one after another.

Zhu Jinnian had a smile on his face and looked particularly happy.

Just yesterday, Jin Haohui from the sect met with him specially and asked him to find ways to support Chen Xuan of Wolong Island and to hold on to Wolong Island. It would be best if he had enough energy to secretly support Yunze Island and fight a war of attrition with the Pan family of Yu State.

With their vision, they can naturally see the strategic importance of the Dongshan Islands.

Under pressure from the Liang Kingdom Demon Sect, the Song Kingdom Sect was unwilling to go to war with the Yu Kingdom Sect, but that did not mean they were willing to give up the fat piece of meat, the Dongshan Islands.

It's not just the output on the islands.

Only with an island as a base can we expand into the deep ocean.

The deep sea is the sphere of influence of the sea people.

But who can predict what will happen in the future?

It is unknown when the sea race will decline and the power of the human race will expand to the depths of the ocean.

Just like many human territories today, they were originally the sphere of influence of alien races such as demons, barbarians, and monsters.

They are looking forward to Chen Xuan's performance in the Dongshan Islands.

……

A long, bright and cheerful laugh was heard from the clan leader's residence.

Jin Haohui was extremely happy when he saw the secret report from Dongshan Islands.

Yuan Zu's spiritual rice made the Jinyang Sect a fortune, and he also gained a lot of benefits from it.

The Supreme Elder Ye Wanli attached great importance to the development of a new variety of spiritual rice by the Jinyang Sect. He personally commended him and promised to prepare the Ningying Pill for him.

This made him look at Chen Xuan with admiration.

The fact that the giant furnace on Wolong Island was refining elixirs could not be hidden from his eyes and ears.

Originally, we were going to wait until this performance review to see if Chen Xuan would take the initiative to offer it.

In fact, the value of refining Qi-nourishing Pills in the giant furnace is not great.

The profits earned by the alchemists in the Dandao Hall of Jinyang Sect are no less than those of the alchemists refining in the giant furnace.

What he values is Chen Xuan's ability to continuously improve and enhance himself.

For example, the yield of Yuanzuling rice has increased from 800 kilograms per mu to more than 1,100 kilograms per mu.

If the giant furnace is used to refine pills, and if it is used to produce Soul-Nourishing Pills or even Foundation-Building Pills, the profit will be huge.

In addition, he could not see much value in the steam engine developed by Chen Xuan for ordinary mortals.

But with trust in Chen Xuan's vision, he knew that it would definitely generate huge benefits in the future.

"Lei Tianyue!"

"The disciple is here!"

A Taoist monk in gray clothes with wings, a bird-like beak and a pointed face emerged from the shadows.

"Keep a close eye on Wolong Island. No matter what happens, Chen Xuan's life must be preserved."

"Yes, the disciple obeys."

The Taoist with the bird's beak flapped his wings and flew away into the void. When he reappeared, he had already flown out of the Jinyang Sect.

He was transformed from the Thunderbird, half man, half bird, with a cultivation level similar to that of a human being with a fake elixir, and his innate magical power is the Thunder Escape Technique.

Due to the sect's unspoken rules, Lei Tianyue will not participate in the dispute over the Dongshan Islands.

He would hide in the sky, spy on the situation on Wolong Island, and report back to the sect leader, Master Jin Haohui.

If Chen Xuan is in danger of his life, he will follow his master's orders and rescue him.

But it is limited to Chen Xuan.

At this time, he didn't know that Chen Xuan had also practiced the Thunder Escape Technique and his speed was not inferior to his, so he didn't need to worry at all.
