It is precisely because he knows this that Zuo Lengchan wants to merge the Five Mountains Sword Sects.
Now the Five Mountains Sword Sects are located in five places, which are far away from each other. Although the name sounds intimidating, their deterrent power is still not as strong as Shaolin and Wudang.
Only by merging the Five Mountains, integrating resources and combining strength, can they overwhelm Shaolin and Wudang and overpower the martial arts world. Only then can Zuo Lengchan do more and realize greater ambitions, instead of being like now. Although the Songshan Sect is nominally the leader of the Five Mountains sword sects and he is the chief leader of the Five Mountains, it is just a title and his actual influence is not as great as that of Shaolin.
"In that case, let's wait here as the abbot said."
Zuo Lengchan said.
They were not particularly anxious to support the Huashan Sect.
tick.
It started to rain again.
Seeing this, everyone returned to their tents to take shelter from the rain.
Zuo Lengchan and Fangzheng Chongxu said goodbye and returned to their tents.
There were only Zuo Lengchan, Ding Mian, Fei Bin and other people from the Songshan School in the tent.
As soon as Zuo Lengchan returned to the tent, he turned to look at one of them with a stern expression.
"Junior Brother Han, don't say things like you did before again, especially in front of outsiders."
The person who was seen was the one who had just mocked Jiang Ning.
"I know you are dissatisfied with Yu Canghai, but how can you just say that? We have other things to do besides supporting Huashan Sect this time. If your words get out and Huashan Sect and Hengshan Sect know about it, how will they see it? By then, there will be no more gratitude, but resentment. Wouldn't it be even more difficult to merge the sects?"
"It is difficult for us to merge the Five Mountains. There must be conservative people inside who are trying their best to stop us. There are also forces outside who don't want to see us merge. Isn't it giving them something to talk about by saying this?"
"You are considered a senior member of the Songshan Sect. How can you be so careless in your words?"
Zuo Lengchan never thought that merging the sects was an easy matter, otherwise he would not have planned for more than ten years. He also did not think that Shaolin and Wudang would just watch a behemoth rise up and would inevitably create obstacles. Over the years, he has been cautious and created the image of a selfless leader. However, his junior brother said such words in public, which really showed his lack of consideration for the overall situation.
"Master, I know I was wrong and I will never make the same mistake again."
Seeing Zuo Lengchan being so stern and his words were so serious, Junior Brother Han's face turned pale, and he admitted his mistake in fear and trepidation. He even bent his knees and was about to kneel down the next second, but Zuo Lengchan reached out to hold him up.
"All right."
Zuo Lengchan's expression eased a little.
"It is a great virtue to know one's mistakes and correct them. Just be careful with your words and actions in the future. Think carefully about what to say and what not to say before you speak."
"Yes, senior brother."
Han Tianpeng nodded repeatedly, still with a hint of panic on his face.
Zuo Lengchan then said: "I have been busy practicing martial arts recently and have no time to take care of the affairs of the sect. Since Yu Canghai is dead, you have nothing to do for the time being. I will assign you an errand after you return."
Zuo Lengchan thought for a moment and said, "Well...it just so happens that someone in Guyang County has recently joined my Songshan Sect, and there is no one to take charge of it yet. You will be in charge of it when you return this time."
Han Tianpeng looked delighted when he heard this.
Guyang County is a county near Dengfeng. Although it is a county, it is very rich. There is a big family there who is very rich. This is a lucrative job and he can make a lot of money if he goes there.
"Yes, I will definitely live up to my brother's high expectations!"
Han Tianpeng responded loudly with a smile on his face.
Seeing him like this, Zuo Lengchan also showed a smile on his face, and then looked at Fei Bin.
"Have Qinghai Yixiao and the others arrived?"
Chapter 216: Raising a Tiger to Cause Trouble
Fei Bin and others who had been watching Zuo Lengchan scolding Han Tianpeng had remained silent. After hearing Zuo Lengchan's question, Fei Bin stood up and replied.
"Brother, Brother Ji and the others are here, waiting for your instructions."
"Um……"
Zuo Lengchan pondered for a moment after hearing this, and then said, "Tell them not to act rashly first, and spread out and hide. I will make arrangements later."
"Yes, senior brother."
Fei Bin nodded.
Zuo Lengchan then came to the main seat and sat down without saying anything else, his eyes seeming to be in deep thought.
Seeing this scene, Fei Bin and others looked at each other, then quietly left the tent without disturbing Zuo Lengchan.
……
"I'm afraid this Left Alliance Leader can't wait any longer."
Chongxu said as soon as he sat down.
"hehe."
Fang Zheng, who was sitting opposite, smiled and shook his head without saying anything.
Even Fang Zheng had to admit that Zuo Lengchan was indeed a heroic leader. If he could really merge the Five Mountains Sword Sects, there would definitely be a sect stronger than Shaolin and Wudang in the righteous world. Especially since Zuo Lengchan was not a man who would keep content with his lot. Merging the Five Mountains Sword Sects was only the first step. Later on, there would definitely be chaos in the martial arts world, and Fang Zheng would never allow that.
The world can just remain as it is, there is no need for ambitious people.
But when Fang Zheng thought about this, he looked quite troubled.
Seeing him like this, Chongxu knew that Fangzheng was also having a headache, but he still said, "We still have to stop him as soon as possible."
Fang Zheng nodded, but his brows were still furrowed.
Chongxu suggested: "Why not support someone from within the Five Mountains Sword Sect to fight against Zuo Lengchan?"
Fang Zheng looked at him and asked, "Who are you going to support?"
Chongxu thought for a moment and asked, "Yue Buqun?"
He had reasons for thinking this way. Among the Five Mountains Sword Sects, apart from Zuo Lengchan, Hengshan Dingxian was a woman, Tianmen Taoist was hot-tempered and pedantic, and Mr. Mo Da was nowhere to be seen. So there were only the Huashan Sect and Yue Buqun left.
The Huashan Sect has not recovered from the dispute over sword energy and has become the last in the group. But no matter what, they were once the leader of the Five Mountains Sword Sects and had a glorious past. How could they agree to be merged with their former younger brother?
Moreover, Yue Buqun has a very good reputation in the martial arts world and has a solid mass base. If he does not agree to merge the sects, there will be an opportunity for a turnaround. As long as they support the Huashan Sect and Yue Buqun, it will become even more difficult for Zuo Lengchan to merge the sects.
"This……"
Fang Zheng was a little hesitant.
After a while.
"To be honest, I did consider Sect Leader Yue before, but Yue Buqun is a very cunning man with a heavy mind and very deep hidden thoughts. If we make a bet rashly, I am afraid that someone more ambitious than Zuo Lengchan will appear."
Fang Zheng used three "extreme" words in a row to express his fear of Yue Buqun. He did not explicitly refuse him, but Chongxu already understood his attitude.
Although Fangzheng said so, Chongxu knew what he was afraid of.
It’s because they are afraid that Yue Buqun will be difficult to control.
Since Fang Zheng had already said so, Chongxu no longer mentioned Yue Buqun. After all, Yue Buqun was definitely a little unpredictable and might be the next Zuo Lengchan.
After thinking about it, Chongxu proposed another candidate.
"How is Jiang Ning?"
"Jiangning?"
Fang Zheng looked a little surprised.
"Ah."
Chongxu put forward his own point of view: "This man became famous at a young age, and he already has such martial arts at such a young age. As long as we can subdue him and support him to control the Huashan Sect and compete with Zuo Lengchan, it may not be a feasible way."
Although there was no reaction in the martial arts world regarding Jiang Ning's sudden appearance, Shaolin and Wudang were already paying close attention.
Such an outstanding second-generation disciple of the Five Mountains is the best candidate besides Yue Buqun.
Being young means being easier to control, and being strong in martial arts means having great potential.
"This……"
Fang Zheng frowned: "What you said makes sense, but how can I persuade him?"
"Given his talent and strength, I'm afraid Yue Buqun would not have other options when choosing the successor to the sect leader. He could have easily inherited the Huashan Sect. How can we maneuver around this?"
Chongxu smiled and said, "That being said, how can everything go as planned? As long as things are not completed, there will always be many variables."
"Although Jiang Ning is very talented, there is another person in Huashan Sect who is not completely without a chance."
"Linghu Chong?"
Fang Zheng thought of this name instantly.
"good."
Chongxu nodded.
Fang Zheng frowned: "Although this child has good talent, he is still a little behind Jiang Ning. As long as Yue Buqun is not..., he will definitely choose Jiang Ning as the heir. What chance does he have?"
Shaolin always keeps an eye on the Five Mountains Sword Sects. He also knows Linghu Chong, who is talented but rather lazy. Although he is a senior disciple of Huashan, he is not very reliable. It is said that Yue Buqun often punishes him, so it is unlikely that Yue Buqun would choose him.
"hehe."
Chongxu smiled and said, "His talent is indeed not as good as Jiang Ning's, but he has an advantage that Jiang Ning does not have. He and Yue Buqun's daughter have grown up together since childhood. If nothing unexpected happens, he will be Yue Buqun's son-in-law in the future. In addition, he is also the eldest disciple of Huashan Sect, so he may not be without competitiveness."
Fang Zheng pondered in silence for a moment and shook his head.
"Even so, Yue Buqun would not necessarily choose Linghu Chong and abandon Jiang Ning."
Chongxu smiled and said, "We don't need to know who Yue Buqun chooses, we just need to let Jiang Ning know."
Fang Zheng was stunned for a moment, then he understood what Chongxu meant.
"As long as he knows this, he will not go to Yue Buqun to confirm this matter. He will definitely be shaken, and a rift will arise between the master and the disciple. Then tell him that Shaolin and Wudang will fully support him. I believe he should know what to choose."
Chongxu said again.
Fang Zheng frowned and said nothing.
After a long time.
"I'll think about it again."
Fang Zheng still refused to give in. He said that one must be cautious with such matters, otherwise if he raised another tiger, it would be a troublesome situation.
Seeing his expression, Chongxu nodded and said nothing more.
