Chapter 753: Chapter 345: Eunuch Cultivation Technique, the Essence of Yang God
Is this master adept at face-changing?
Zheng Fa stared at the Ninth Elder’s face, feeling this person was far more agile than he imagined.
The Ninth Elder seemed to realize his quick changes were difficult to trust, awkwardly explained:
“Alliance Hierarch, if I go to Supreme Dao, after all, I’m unfamiliar with the place, let alone that my clan is actually very large… Just bringing a few dozen means abandoning ninety percent of my kin.”
The Ninth Elder’s tone carried some helplessness.
“The Elder plans quite clearly.”
For cultivators, there’s also the saying of leaving one’s homeland—according to Lady Xuanhua, the difficulty of being a loose cultivator stems from not having any foundation.
Moreover, previously this Ninth Elder likely chose to protect the elite disciples of her clan, given that Haori Mountain was watching, wanting to take away many clan members was too challenging.
But a Nascent Soul cultivator exists for at least a thousand years, if they intend to develop their family, the number of clan members would become extremely large.
“The Xuanwei Realm is treacherous, and my Divinity Transformation is arduous, now I merely seek to protect the lives of my clan members.” The Ninth Elder spoke honestly, “Now that the Alliance Hierarch can control the Heaven and Earth Divine Evil Formation, I can live with my clan in the familiar Chongxuan Sect, it would naturally be better.”
Zheng Fa sized up the Ninth Elder from top to bottom.
The Ninth Elder looked a bit tense too, her hands pressed against her skirt, eyes slightly lowered.
Seeing Zheng Fa say nothing for a while, she continued:
“Alliance Hierarch, what I say is straight from the heart…”
“I know.” Zheng Fa nodded and said, “I also understand the Elder’s request.”
At present, this Ninth Elder seems to have the attributes of a person seeking stability:
With no grand ambitions, just seeking peace, hoping only to survive with her family.
Rare in the Xuanwei Realm, but Zheng Fa can somewhat understand, as for how much truth or falsehood there is in these words…
Truth be told, with Zheng Fa’s control over the Heaven and Earth Divine Evil Formation, whether or not he believes in the Ninth Elder’s character, he has to trust her intelligence.
The Ninth Elder lifted her eyes, looking at Zheng Fa, seemingly not understanding why Zheng Fa was more hesitant than before:
After all, her current request doesn’t require Zheng Fa to sell a favor to Supreme Dao, it’s essentially not asking for anything.
Zheng Fa pondered for a moment and then said: “If you want to leave, Elder, I’ve got nothing to say, but if you wish to stay, there are some things we need to clarify first.”
The Ninth Elder was speechless, hearing Zheng Fa’s words sounding as if he was being dismissive of her?
I’m a Nascent Soul at least!
“What I’ve done in the Hundred Immortals Alliance, the Elder must have heard.”
The Ninth Elder nodded lightly.
“Then the Elder should also know, many sects in the Hundred Immortals Alliance still harbor ulterior motives.”
“I know… The Sect Leader said many sects secretly communicated with us.”
“So, Elder, are you willing to accept the new regulations of our Hundred Immortals Alliance? In the future, neither sects nor families will live as prosperously as before.”
The Ninth Elder froze, her expression suddenly clear.
The new regulations Zheng Fa referred to are various guilds, combined with market opening and even shared spiritual material development.
Or rather, the integration of technology and commerce, until the Hundred Immortals Alliance becomes completely unified.
Sects and families are naturally formed entities in the Xuanwei Realm, consistent with the social development laws.
He actually doesn’t resent them.
But in Master Pang’s investigation, the phenomenon of various families and sects occupying the majority of resources in the Hundred Immortals Alliance isn’t within his tolerance.
This phenomenon will surely be changed by the Jiushan Sect.
Zheng Fa looked at the Ninth Elder, speaking sincerely: “Elder, if you are willing, it’s naturally good, if not… leaving might be beneficial for both of us.”
The Ninth Elder pursed her lips, remained silent for a long time, then smiled bitterly: “The Alliance Hierarch is indeed straightforward.”
“After all, the Elder has helped me a lot.”
The Ninth Elder seemed to understand that if Zheng Fa didn’t say these words today, and forced a confrontation in the future, she wouldn’t be able to do anything.
Saying the unpleasant words upfront reveals a hint of goodwill, at least not of an unteachable and punitive nature.
“Shi Shangren even teased the Alliance Hierarch, saying the Alliance Hierarch acts carefully, weighing the consequences.”
…Compared to the harshness of Haori Mountain, his manner indeed appears somewhat “gentle.”
“But who would have thought the Alliance Hierarch is actually more domineering than Haori Mountain.” The Ninth Elder looked at Zheng Fa, as if seeing through his ambition, her expression bitter, “Sects, families, have existed in the Xuanwei Realm for more than just one era.”
“Even the Five Sects are powerless. I’ve heard Shi Shangren himself is of family disciple origin.”
“But who would have thought… Doesn’t the Alliance Hierarch know this is opposing the vast majority of cultivators in the realm?”
The Five Sects certainly couldn’t do it, they are essentially no different from other cultivation sects, with many family cultivators among them.
The Demon Sect needless to say, each Demon Sect is almost a large family.
How does that saying go, this world is mostly spoiled by your mutual entanglement.
“Elder, it’s not about what I want or don’t want, this is the inevitable path for the Jiushan Realm in the future.”
Zheng Fa stated openly.
One of the future goals of the Jiushan Realm could be said to be distributing according to labor:
The greater the contribution, the more resources.
But the essence of most families and sects in the Xuanwei Realm is occupying social resources through force.
Zheng Fa doesn’t underestimate force, but that’s for external situations.
Internally, he absolutely wouldn’t tolerate such rules.
This is the irreconcilable fundamental contradiction.
Seeing Zheng Fa’s face smiling with no hint of hesitation, the Ninth Elder opened her mouth but didn’t know what to say, she could only fall into silence.
“Elder, if you can’t decide now, it’s not too late to make up your mind later, whenever you wish to go to Supreme Dao, I will send a message to Supreme Dao.” Zheng Fa smiled.
The Ninth Elder nodded silently, obediently taking out an emerald jade tube.
“This is the jade tube Shi Shangren gave me.”
