Lack of talent? I'll buy a year's worth of cultivation for one dollar!

"Sect Master, you mean...?"

Mo Tianjue looked at him, his eyes dark and unfathomable.

"Long Yu is also a hybrid of the Abyss Dragon Clan."

"And the powerful figure who made the move was a pure-blooded Abyss Dragon."

There aren't that many coincidences in this world.

Xuan Ku's breathing became heavy.

He followed Mo Tianjue's train of thought and quickly deduced the reasoning.

"What does the sect leader mean?"

"That powerful being at the peak of the Other Shore realm is Long Yu's..."

Xuan swallowed hard.

"A guardian of the path?!"

Protectors of the Way!

The atmosphere inside the Hall of Ten Thousand Demons changed instantly the moment those three words were uttered.

Mo Tianjue nodded slightly.

A look of sudden realization finally appeared on that cold, stern face.

now it's right.

The logic is now completely closed.

Previously, Mo Tianjue had been wondering about this.

Long Yu, this young man, is incredibly talented.

Even in the early stages of the Primordial Chaos realm, it could unleash physical mass that could overwhelm those in the Primordial Chaos realm.

This kind of combat power that transcends dimensions is something that a low-level rogue cultivator or a declining branch could not possibly cultivate.

He must have an extremely terrifying lineage.

just now.

Everything makes sense now.

Behind Long Yu stands a powerful Abyss Dragon Clan leader at the peak of the Other Shore realm!

Having an old monster of this caliber personally guiding you, and refining you with the foundation of countless eras.

To cultivate a peerless prodigy capable of fighting across dimensions.

That makes perfect sense!

No wonder.

Mo Tianjue sighed inwardly.

"No wonder he dared to use lethal force when faced with Jin Li's provocation."

"No wonder he showed no fear in the face of the Dark Gold Suanni clan's revenge."

"There is the protection of the other shore's peak."

"In this Primordial Chaos Realm, where can't he go?"

Mo Tianjue's eyes became unusually deep.

He reassessed Long Yu's value.

Previously, in his eyes, Long Yu was just a genius.

But now.

Long Yu's identity has risen to a level that is enough to influence the strategic landscape of the sect.

Befriending Long Yu is equivalent to befriending a giant at the pinnacle of power!

This is particularly relevant to the Shimo Sect, which is currently engaged in a power struggle with the Xuanhuang Dao Court and the Tianshang Corpse Sect.

It's like a strategic bargaining chip fallen from the sky!

"Mysterious withering".

Mo Tianjue collected his thoughts and turned his gaze back to the inner sect elders below.

"This time, you issued a decree ordering the Dark Gold Suanni clan to attack the Blood Burial Abyss."

"Originally, the plan was to use someone else to kill Long Yu's enemies, thereby currying favor with him, right?"

Xuan Ku froze.

He knew he couldn't hide it from the sect leader, so he had no choice but to bite the bullet and admit it.

"Your subordinate... Your subordinate did indeed have selfish motives."

"madness."

Mo Tianjue simply gave a two-word evaluation.

"Don't you even consider this? Since Long Yu has a peak-level cultivator protecting him, if he truly wanted to annihilate the Dark Gold Suanni clan, would he need you to lend him a hand?"

"He must have his reasons for keeping the Dark Gold Suanni clan around."

"You were too clever for your own good and almost ruined his plan."

Xuan Ku was so frightened that he broke out in a cold sweat.

"Your subordinate admits guilt!"

"Your subordinate deserves to die ten thousand times!"

He thought that Mo Tianjue was about to have a fit and would use his life to apologize to Long Yu.

but.

Mo Tianjue simply waved his hand.

"That's enough."

"By a twist of fate."

"Your decree, though reckless, has forced Long Yu to reveal his true strength, allowing our sect to understand his real background."

"Moreover, with the help of that powerful figure, one of the core strongholds of the Heavenly Sorrow Corpse Sect was wiped out."

Mo Tianjue looked at Xuan Ku.

"Merits and demerits cancel each other out."

"I will not punish you."

Xuan Ku was stunned.

He looked up in disbelief at Mo Tianjue on the throne.

No punishment?

He overstepped his authority by mobilizing subordinate forces, nearly triggering a major sect war, yet the sect leader didn't punish him?

They even said that merits and demerits cancel each other out?

"Thank you, Sect Master!"

Xuan Ku reacted quickly and immediately kowtowed several times.

The relief of surviving the ordeal overwhelmed him instantly.

"but."

Mo Tianjue changed the subject.

His tone became serious.

"The matter concerning that powerful member of the Abyss Dragon Clan is classified as a top secret of the sect."

"No one but you and I will know."

"Do you understand?"

Xuan Ku nodded repeatedly.

"Understood! I will not divulge a single word!"

He knew that if this level of strategic intelligence were leaked, it would cause a shockwave throughout the entire Hongmeng Realm.

"As for Long Yu."

Mo Tianjue's slender fingers tapped the armrest gently once more.

He was thinking.

With such a powerful background and such extraordinary talent.

How should we deal with this?

Logically, the safest course of action would be to directly appoint such a person as the Holy Son of the Primordial Demon Sect and devote all the sect's resources to nurturing him.

but.

Mo Tianjue frowned slightly.

The Demonic Sect already has a Holy Maiden.

Sanskrit chant.

Fan Yin is currently in seclusion deep within the Abyss of Primordial Demons, condensing the blood of the Primordial Chaos Demon Source.

Once the source bloodline is fully developed, Fan Yin will be the rightful successor of the Beginning Demon Sect.

A sect can only have one core.

If we establish Long Yu as the Holy Son now.

Dual-core architecture.

This will inevitably trigger factional struggles within the sect, and may even cause serious internal strife.

This is something Mo Tianjue absolutely does not want to see.

not to mention.

Behind Long Yu stands the Peak of the Other Shore.

Trying to curry favor with such a person and grandly bestowing upon him the title of Holy Son would actually be a bad move.

It seemed as if the Demon Sect was currying favor with him.

True political maneuvering is subtle and pervasive.

"Issue my order."

Mo Tianjue spoke calmly and gave the order.

"Effective immediately."

"Secretly altered Long Yu's permissions within the sect."

"The Scripture Pavilion, the Hall of Skill Transmission, the Myriad Demon Realm... all core resources are unconditionally open to him."

"He was treated the same as the Son of God."

"But don't make a fuss about it."

Mo Tianjue looked at Xuan Ku with deep eyes.

"Have someone do it secretly."

"Don't try too hard to please him, and don't let him realize that we already know about his background."

"Let everything take its natural course."

"We'll give him whatever he needs."

"Do you understand?"

Xuan Ku felt a chill run down his spine.

He understood what the sect leader meant.

This is to use the resources of the entire Demon Sect to silently bind Long Yu.

They don't give him a formal title, but they provide him with substantial benefits.

This avoided conflict with the Holy Maiden Fanyin while also befriending the otherworldly peak behind Long Yu.

clever.

That's brilliant.

"Yes, sir!"

Xuan Ku respectfully accepted the order.

"I'm leaving this matter to you."

Mo Tianjue waved his hand.

"Step down."

"Yes."

Xuan Ku stood up and respectfully backed out of the Ten Thousand Demons Hall.

Until you walk out the door.

I felt the cold, icy wind blowing on my face.

Xuan Ku let out a long sigh of relief.

He raised his hand and wiped the cold sweat from his forehead.

I turned around and glanced at the majestic and dark hall.

A look of disbelief and astonishment flashed in his eyes.

Own……

He survived?

Not only was he not thrown into the Demon Cave, but he was also not stripped of his position as elder.

It even seems like they've done something meritorious?

The sect leader not only did not pursue his overstepping of authority, but also entrusted him with the important task of secretly connecting with Long Yu.

What does this tell us?

This shows that the sect leader still trusts him and is still willing to use him.

A blessing in disguise!

On Xuan Ku's sinister face, a smile that was even more hideous than a grimace finally appeared.

but.

The smile lasted only half a breath before freezing completely.

He suddenly realized a serious problem.

The sect's hurdle has been overcome.

The sect leader decided not to pursue the matter further.

but.

What about Long Yu's level?!

Xuan Ku's steps suddenly stopped, and he felt a chill run down his back.

He had issued a decree to utterly destroy the Dark Gold Suanni clan!

Since Long Yu sent his protectors to the rescue, it means that the Dark Gold Suanni clan is definitely useful to Long Yu!

I almost ruined Long Yu's plans.

Will that powerful being at the peak of the other shore follow the clues and find out that he himself issued the decree?

If Long Yu finds out, will he kill me?

"no."

Xuan swallowed hard, his eyes becoming unusually anxious.

"We must find a way to make up for it."

"We must smooth things over before Long Yu makes a move."
