The mastermind behind the scenes starting with the calamity of all races

King Wen was stunned. "You mean... that everyone here should take on a disciple, and then have them compete to see who teaches the best?"

"Yes, that's how it is," Su Yu nodded.

King Wen turned to look at Yun Jie and asked, "What do you think?"

Yun Jie raised an eyebrow slightly, glanced around, and then smiled, "I think it's feasible. I was just about to take on a disciple myself."

At this point, Su Yu got excited.

"Grandpa, I heard you went to great lengths for this disciple."

"Can't you just get straight to the point? Is it really necessary to go through all this trouble? Who are you? The strongest being in all realms! It's just accepting a disciple. If you just show your status and strength, wouldn't they bow down and worship you?"

Yun Jie rolled his eyes at him and said speechlessly, "Do you think I'm a bandit, bowing down and worshipping? Besides, this isn't some other world. If I reveal my name, who will know who I am?"

"Besides, shouldn't you do some vetting before recruiting disciples? What if you end up with someone who betrays their master and ancestors? Wouldn't you be the one suffering in the end?"

"Fine, you're right, I can't argue with you." Su Yu realized he couldn't win the argument with Yun Jie, so he simply surrendered.

"Just tell me if you're going to participate or not, give me a straight answer," Su Yu said bluntly.

Yun Jie smiled and said, "Sure, I have no problem with that."

Yun Jie agreed, and now only King Wen was left. Su Yu, Wan Tiansheng, and Lan Tian all focused their attention on King Wen.

After a moment of silence, King Wen smiled and said, "Alright, since you're in such a good mood, I'll just play along with you."

He stroked his chin and said, "To be honest, in all my years, I've never seriously taught a disciple..."

He had many disciples, and the polytheistic script lineage was also passed down from his lineage, but in reality, he never accepted any disciples.

What you said today has piqued his interest.

Furthermore, although he himself was no match for Yun Jie, if his own disciple could defeat Yun Jie's disciple, wouldn't that also be a form of defeat?

To be honest, King Wen still hoped to defeat Yun Jie.

After all, Yun Jie was using his name to "swindle and deceive" people from the very beginning. Wen Yi was created by Yun Jie, who even used his disciple's name.

The title of "disciple of King Wen" fooled countless people back then. To achieve this, they even altered the memories of Fei Qiu and the others. It has to be said, they were truly cunning and scheming.

"Haha, okay, since everyone agrees, let's begin."

"Oh, by the way, how about we set a timeframe? How about ten years?"

Su Yu originally wanted to talk about three to five years, but after thinking about it carefully, he realized that he didn't have much experience teaching apprentices. He might not be able to produce any results in three to five years, so he decided to just make it ten years.

Ten years is neither a long nor a short time. Even if you recruit an eight-year-old child, they will be eighteen years old in ten years, which is about enough.

What do you think?

After Su Yu finished speaking, everyone looked at each other, but they didn't have anything to say about the deadline.

Just then, Yun Jie suddenly spoke up, saying, "It's currently the year 1711 of the Tianxing Calendar. How about we set the year as 1730?"

The year 1730 of the Celestial Calendar was a special year. In this year, the protagonist of this world, Li Hao, began to show his talent and then soared to great heights, attracting the attention of various major powers.

It can be said that this year marked a turning point in the history of the Silvermoon world.

Of course, this is the situation in the original work. At this time, Shindo had already been born, nineteen years earlier than in the original work. History could not be the same as before, but the year 1730 was still special.

At the same time, Yun Jie also wanted to see how much change their arrival would bring, whether Li Hao would behave as in the original story, what changes the world would undergo, and where the ship of history would ultimately sail.

"The year 1730 of the Celestial Calendar?"

Su Yu and the others repeated it.

"Isn't 1730 nineteen years from now? Nineteen years, why not ten, fifteen, or twenty years? What does that year mean?" Su Yu and the others looked at Yun Jie with confusion.

Yun Jie rambled on, “Why are there so many questions? I just wanted to round it up. It’s 1711 now, and there are less than nine years until 1720, which is too short. So let’s just push it to 1730. Nineteen years is enough time for a baby to grow into a nineteen-year-old.”

"Grandpa, you have OCD," Su Yu remarked.

Yun Jie smiled and said, "Then let's just call it obsessive-compulsive disorder. How about the year 1730 of the Celestial Calendar?"

"That's possible, but shouldn't we change dynasties? Should we continue using the calendar of the Tianxing Dynasty?"

In the myriad realms, having experienced the Chaos Era, the Creation Era, the Primordial Era, the Ancient Era, and the latest New Universe Era, Su Yu has now arrived in the Silver Moon World and taken over the Heavenly Star Dynasty. Naturally, Su Yu is pondering the matter of changing dynasties. Now that Yun Jie has said this, he is a little undecided.

"There's no need. It's just a title. Let's continue using the Celestial Star Calendar and the Celestial Star Dynasty. The people are already used to it. If we really want to change it, we can do it later when the time is right," Yun Jie said.

Yun Jie wasn't particularly concerned about whether there was a change of dynasty. After all, the ruling class had been completely replaced, so did it even matter whether there was a change of dynasty?

It's important, but not that important, so it doesn't really matter whether it's changed or not.

If Su Yu insists on making changes, Yun Jie will certainly support him. After all, a grandson is a grandson; if he doesn't support Su Yu, who else can he support?

However, Su Yu did not have a particularly strong desire to change the dynasty. Not changing it actually saved him a lot of trouble, and he was happy to have some peace and quiet.

"Okay, then we'll do it your way, Grandpa."

Hearing Su Yu's words, Yun Jie smiled and nodded.

Soon, the Great Dao Universe returned to peace.

Yun Jie stared at the two brilliant star rivers before him, lost in thought, something no one could fathom.

Logically, Yin Yueyun should be allowed to break through quickly now, and then push the world to complete its second revival.

But right now, Yun Jie seems completely unhurried, as if he's planning something. In that case, when will their true forms be able to leave?

When I first entered the Great Dao Universe, it felt incredibly novel, but after waiting for a while, it just felt so-so.

The stars were dazzling, but the vast universe was devoid of any life, except for the five of them.

Even so, no one urged Yun Jie on. Their clones were all out in the outside world, so it wasn't as boring as they had imagined.

outside world.

Tianxing Palace.

After briefly explaining their duties to their subordinates, Su Yu, Wan Tiansheng, and Lan Tian left Tianxing City. Their destination was unknown, but their subordinates could still contact them if anything happened.

Meanwhile, Su Yu and his two companions parted ways after leaving Tianxing City.

They each headed in different directions, embarking on a "journey" to find their disciples.

They had different ideas, and it was unknown who they would ultimately take as their disciple—whether it would be an established disciple like Di Fujian or someone they would train from a young age.

Anyway, nineteen years is enough time, even if you start nurturing her from the womb.

the other side.

Having just set foot on the land of the Western Divine Kingdom, King Wen began to think about his disciples. After all, he was a legendary figure. In all the realms, everyone who mentioned King Wen would give him a thumbs up. Now that Su Yu and the others had organized a disciple competition, he couldn't afford to lose.

He has set his goal: to strive for second place and secure first!

Since I can't surpass Yun Jie in terms of personal strength, I'll surpass him as a disciple.

The competition now is about teaching disciples, not about who is stronger.

Often, those who are highly skilled may not be able to teach disciples, while those who are less skilled may still be able to teach disciples.

"Let's see if there's anyone in this Western Divine Kingdom suitable to be an apprentice."

Having just arrived in the Western Divine Kingdom, King Wen did not want to return to the Tianxing Dynasty immediately. Instead, he decided to look around for suitable disciples. If he couldn't find any, he could also try Dali or Shuiyun. The world was so vast, with such a large population, there was bound to be a suitable one.

······

Silver Moon Province.

White Moon City, the headquarters of the Jianmen branch.

After a day, the Sword Sect had recruited fifty disciples, in addition to an elder named Yun Jie.

With such a young person who has grasped the rudiments of the concept of power joining the Jianmen Sect, it can be said that they have gotten a great deal.

Fortunately, other forces are unaware of this yet, otherwise they would have already come to "snatch" them away.

However, the commotion caused by Yun Jie's fight with Hong Yitang yesterday was quite significant, and some people had already come to inquire about the situation. Fortunately, Hong Yitang's wife issued a gag order in time, so the news did not get out.

Seeing that they couldn't get any valuable information, the various factions gave up. They figured it wasn't a big deal and there was no need to waste too much time.

this day.

Hong Yitang summoned Yun Jie, and after a brief exchange of pleasantries, the two got straight to the point.

"Elder Yun, you must have seen my wife's condition. She needs to focus on her pregnancy and won't be able to teach disciples for a while. Therefore, you might need to take over the responsibilities she previously had. What do you think..."

Hong Yitang phrased it rather euphemistically, but his meaning was clear.

"Please give your orders, Sect Master!" Yun Jie said generously.

"Haha, then I won't be polite!" Hong Yitang said with a smile.

"Yes, no need to be so polite."

Hong Yitang stroked his chin, pondered for a moment, and said, "How about this, I'll take care of these newly initiated disciples for now. Also, I'll be in charge of the female disciples among the senior disciples, and the rest are yours. What do you say?"

Yun Jie was, after all, a man full of vigor and vitality, and Hong Yitang was hesitant to entrust his female disciples to him, fearing that something might happen later.

Hong Yitang planned to wait until he understood Yun Jie well enough before considering having him take on female disciples. For now, he would have to take them on himself.

Yun Jie paused for a moment, but quickly said, "No problem."

Yun Jie's straightforwardness made Hong Yitang nod in satisfaction. If Yun Jie had suggested taking female disciples with him, he would have suspected Yun Jie's purpose and intentions. Fortunately, Yun Jie did not make things difficult for him.

Across from him, Yun Jie immediately understood Hong Yitang's concerns. He smiled to himself, having no objections. In any case, he had no interest in these female disciples, nor did he ever think of finding a "second mother" for Yun Chen and his sister. Otherwise, wouldn't it have been better if he had just brought Wen Yu back in the first place?

Hong Yitang continued, "You don't need to worry too much about those senior disciples. They know what they should be doing. You just need to supervise them from time to time and give them some pointers."

Because he was worried that Yun Jie lacked experience, Hong Yitang simply told Yun Jie to take on less responsibility and gradually increase his responsibilities as he became more familiar with the situation.

Besides, no matter what, Yun Jie is a swordsman, and a swordsman who has grasped the rudiments of the Wind and Thunder Force. He is more than capable of teaching his "newly graduated" disciples.

Yun Jie nodded: "Okay, then I'll put aside all that for now and get familiar with it first. If I really can't figure it out, I'll ask you for help."

“No problem,” Hong Yitang said.

Just then, Hong Yitang's wife, Liu Qingqing, walked in with her large pregnant belly. When she saw Hong Yitang and Yun Jie, she immediately smiled and said, "The disciples have all been recruited, and it's about time we returned to headquarters."

Hong Yitang nodded: "Yes, I'm worried about being away for too long. It's time to go back."

Then, he turned to Yun Jie and said, "Elder Yun, you should pack your things too. We'll leave Baiyue City tomorrow. Don't worry about the branch here. Just leave a few disciples behind. They'll be rotated every month, so it won't cause any problems."
