For a moment, Gan Tianyan was ashamed and angry from being fooled. She looked at Yun Yang, speechless.
Yun Yang said with a smile, "However, since Senior Gan has spoken, I have to give you face. Our families are in-laws, so of course, we are different. As long as the goodies are kept within the family, it's fine …"
As his voice trailed off, Yun Yang fell into deep thought and did not speak for a long time.
Gan Tianyan's eyes lit up. She knew that Yun Yang had relented not only because the matter had changed, but because it was definitely feasible.
Yun Yang thought for a moment and said in a low voice, "Hmm, we can do this … Senior is my sister-in-law's master, we are not outsiders, so of course we have to give you face. However, your sect and this residence are not the same sect after all … The Residence of Nine Supremes has just been established, and there are many things waiting to be done … How about this, what do you think the Phoenix Cry Sect has to exchange with us? … "
Exchange, exchange?
Gan Tianyan's eyes widened. 'Does this mean that you want me to … buy it?'
Yun Yang smiled amiably. "Senior, please don't misunderstand. This junior doesn't mean that, and I'm not a merchant … Isn't it cliché to use money with our relationship? What our sect needs is just a little bit of sincerity. Whether it's rare metals, treasures of heaven and earth … or cultivation methods and arcane manuals … all of these are fine. Your sect can do whatever you want."
He smiled sheepishly and sighed again. "Your sect is one of the top three sects with middle-class Celestial Luck Banners. Perhaps you look down on this junior's stinginess, but this is the current situation of our residence. We lack all of these things. Very much so! "
Gan Tianyan took a deep breath and swallowed it forcefully, saying, "We do have all of these …"
Yun Yang replied, "Your sect can do whatever you want, but it's just a little bit of sincerity!"
Whatever? Sincerity?
Gan Tianyan was immediately annoyed. 'Whatever? Can it really be whatever? If you're willing to give it to someone with just a little bit of sincerity, I'm afraid you'll have to find a better one! '
She lowered her head and thought for a while before saying, "I wonder how many disciples Sect Leader Yun can give? Our sect has been established for a long time, I'm confident that we have some resource reserves … "
Yun Yang chuckled and waved his hand in a forthright manner, saying, "Senior is a forthright man and straightforward. Including the top ten disciples who are going to the flag, senior only needs to call out to any of the disciples you fancy. Including the top ten disciples who went to Celestial Luck Banner, senior, feel free to call any one you like. As long as they agree, we won't interfere.
Even if senior takes all the fourteen thousand disciples in our residence, I won't say anything. "
There were two words that almost slipped out of his mouth: F * ck!
At the end of the day, the problem was back to square one?
'Voluntary'? '
Moreover … before you came back, we didn't need to pay any price for this to be carried out. Now that you've come back, you've made a long speech, and you've even asked for this and that, and you've given me the same promise as before. Moreover, it's completely useless?
Gan Tianyan stood up abruptly. His face was ashen as he gritted his teeth. "Sect Leader Yun, your generosity has really broadened my horizons. It's really eye-opening."
Yun Yang said innocently, "If senior has any other thoughts, you can totally bring them up and say it in person. What's the harm in having an open and honest exchange? I've just returned to the residence … Perhaps there are some things that I'm not as familiar with as senior. "
Gan Tianyan was furious, her chest rising and falling rapidly. Her emotions were on the verge of losing control.
She suddenly recalled a junior sister in the sect who would mutter to herself through gritted teeth every time she was angry, "So angry that my breasts hurt! Both of them hurt! "
Gan Tianyan, who used to be in a high position and whose status was only below the sect leader, had never experienced such a thing. Today, however, she truly understood the profound meaning of this phrase.
It turned out that both of them could really hurt from anger!
The innocent expression on Yun Yang's face made Gan Tianyan feel like she was about to explode from anger!
Gan Tianyan panted heavily for a moment before she said coldly, "Sect Leader Yun, you don't have to play dumb. Before you came back, I've already tried for a long time. Those who are willing to go with me are few and far between."
"If that's not the case, why would I need to trouble Sect Leader Yun?"
Gan Tianyan had no choice but to swallow her anger.
It was because the current batch of disciples in Yun Yang's Residence of Nine Supremes were too outstanding!
They were too talented!
As long as there was a chance, she would not let it go!
Yun Yang coughed awkwardly. "Uh, uh, I see. Well …"
Then, he said with a troubled expression, "Senior Gan, I can understand your feelings, but it's true that the Residence of Nine Supremes has many disciples, and it's also true that the teachers are insufficient. These are all true. However, if the disciples are unwilling to leave but the sect orders them to leave, it'll be a huge blow to the disciples' state of mind. How much effort will it take to make up for it later? Are you willing to take this risk? Are you willing to bear the consequences? If you're really willing, I can reluctantly do it! "
Gan Tianyan was speechless for a long while after Yun Yang said that.
What Yun Yang had said was true. If the disciples were unwilling to leave, could the Residence of Nine Supremes still chase them away by force?
Their hearts were divided!
Based on the sense of belonging the Residence of Nine Supremes' disciples had to the Residence of Nine Supremes, if such a situation were to happen, the expelled disciples' state of mind would definitely be hard to maintain. Disciples who lacked a state of mind would have limited achievements in the future, no matter how gifted they were. There was no room for nurturing such disciples!
Furthermore, if the Residence of Nine Supremes really did so and did as the Phoenix Cry Sect wanted, who else would be willing to join the Residence of Nine Supremes in the future?
Even the disciples could not be protected and were taken away just like that. There was no sense of security at all. If there were any other ways, they would never be willing to join such a sect!
"Is there no one in your sect that is not very valued, even if it's a disciple who might be eliminated …" Gan Tianyan was melancholy.
Yun Yang rolled his eyes.
Not very valued? Might be eliminated?
The Residence of Nine Supremes had such disciples. There were a lot of them, and they were everywhere!
Currently, none of the Residence of Nine Supremes' disciples received special attention. Everyone cultivated diligently on their own. It was precisely because of this that everyone's path was similar. At least, the starting point was the same, and there was no difference between them. Similarly, everyone's chances of being eliminated were the same, so everyone had the possibility of being eliminated!
In other words, all the Residence of Nine Supremes' disciples were not very valued, and all of them had the possibility of being eliminated!
However, under the current spiritual Qi of the Residence of Nine Supremes, even the most useless of them could break through a few chakras. Moreover, these little fellows were all gifted. As long as they were given time, none of them would be useless.
Under such a premise, as long as the person involved did not give up, it was not easy to figure out who would be eliminated in the end!
"Senior, you've been a guest in the Residence of Nine Supremes for some time. I'm afraid you know more about the recent affairs of the Residence of Nine Supremes than I do. Of course, you know the situation and mentality of these disciples better. Do you have to … do that from us?" Yun Yang rubbed the space between his brows, feeling a headache coming on.
His meaning was clear: These are all our disciples. Do you Phoenix Cry Sect have to take advantage of us?
Do you have to bite a piece of meat? Can't we not bite?
Hearing Yun Yang's words, Gan Tianyan was speechless, and his embarrassment was written all over his face.
Yes, it was one thing that the Residence of Nine Supremes did not have enough teachers, but why did they have to share their lack of teachers with their disciples? Moreover, there were many talented and talented disciples. What kind of logic was this?
Even if the Phoenix Cry Sect was a prestigious sect, it could not be so overbearing!
To put it more seriously, taking disciples by force was a serious matter of cutting off one's future and damaging one's foundation. No matter what, it was the Phoenix Cry Sect's fault!
However, Gan Tianyan was not reconciled to it. Under normal circumstances, the act of taking outstanding disciples by force was naturally not desirable. No matter how passionate one's thoughts were, few sects dared to take action. However, the Residence of Nine Supremes had too many talented disciples, far exceeding the maximum training limit that the Residence of Nine Supremes could currently train and cultivate. Moreover, Gan Tianyan did not intend to take those with the highest talent, which was why he had spoken!
In fact, Gan Tianyan himself was puzzled.
Where did the Residence of Nine Supremes find so many talented disciples?
The number of outstanding disciples in the Residence of Nine Supremes was more than fourteen thousand. Even if all the sects with Celestial Luck Banners were included, the number would not be more than this. If he had not seen it with his own eyes, he would not have believed it!
"Over the years, the competition between the sects with Celestial Luck Banners has become more intense … Disciples with good aptitude are as rare as phoenix feathers and unicorn horns. What's more, the reason why the sects with Celestial Luck Banners have such abundant spiritual Qi is not without a price. The price of gathering such a massive amount of spiritual Qi is to transfer all the spiritual Qi from the nearby mortal lands. The spiritual Qi of heaven and earth is constant, and once the spiritual Qi of a region is highly concentrated in one place, the spiritual Qi in a certain range around it will inevitably die out. Similarly, the probability of geniuses appearing in the mortal world, where the spiritual Qi is thinner …"
Gan Tianyan heaved a long sigh.
Even if he did not take into account the fact that the spiritual Qi was thin, the probability of geniuses appearing in the mortal world was still minuscule. Basically, there would only be one in a few million people. Otherwise, how could there be the term 'genius'?
"In recent years, it has become more and more difficult for the sects to find their successors … When I came to the Residence of Nine Supremes this time, I was surprised to see the gathering of geniuses, all of whom are talented and talented. It's really difficult for me to suppress my desire to cherish talents, which is why I'm so bold to ask …"
"Now that Sect Leader Yun has many concerns and the truth is that you are in a dilemma, I won't force you. After all, it's not necessary to divide the disciples if there are too many talented disciples in the sect to teach them all … "
Gan Tianyan's eyes were filled with sadness as she sighed.
Yun Yang observed his expression and felt that it was about time. He smiled and said, "Senior, don't be anxious. We can discuss this matter at length …"
Gan Tianyan asked in surprise, "What else can we discuss at length?"
Yun Yang said, "Phoenix Cry Sect has resources and many cultivation seniors, but it doesn't have many disciples that can be taught. Perhaps, it should be said that the number of talented disciples is very limited, while the Residence of Nine Supremes has many disciples that can be taught. Although it's difficult for our disciples to transfer to your sect, it's not impossible for us to compromise and try to cooperate. Perhaps, we can both get what we want."
"Compromise? Cooperation? How do you say … "
"The teachers in Phoenix Cry Sect who have free time can come to the Residence of Nine Supremes to teach disciples … They can also bring back the disciples they like to teach … The only restriction is that they have to wait until the Residence of Nine Supremes has chosen their inner disciples …"
Gan Tianyan's expression turned cold. "Sect Leader Yun, what a good plan. Is your so-called cooperation to let Phoenix Cry Sect provide manpower and help the Residence of Nine Supremes train their disciples in exchange for all the benefits?"
Yun Yang smiled and said, "Senior, you are mistaken. The Residence of Nine Supremes' disciples will retain their identity, but when they are successful in their studies, they will have a chance to choose which sect they will belong to in the future."
Gan Tianyan was dumbfounded.
"In other words, when they are successful in their studies and choose to become Phoenix Cry Sect's disciples, they will only be Phoenix Cry Sect's disciples. Similarly, if they still choose to be Residence of Nine Supremes' disciples, they will only be Residence of Nine Supremes' disciples."
Ping Xiaoyi and Guo Nuanyang, who stood beside him, did not say a word as Yun Yang finished his narration leisurely.
Gan Tianyan snorted and said, "What's the difference between this and before? If the disciples still choose to become disciples of the Residence of Nine Supremes at that time, wouldn't all the efforts of the Phoenix Cry Sect over the years be in vain? Well, to be more precise, it's all for the Residence of Nine Supremes?"
Gan Tianyan was extremely fearful of this point. During this period of time, she had been troubled by the Residence of Nine Supremes' disciples' sense of identity towards the Residence of Nine Supremes itself. If there were truly people who wavered, they would not have waited until today; they would have left with their people long ago!
Yun Yang said faintly, "This collaboration is meant to give your sect a chance. If the master-disciple bond that has been cultivated over the years can't change a person's mind, shouldn't it be the teacher's own reflection? What senior said just now is a possibility. Perhaps, after many years, those disciples who have been nurtured will all choose to become disciples of Phoenix Cry Sect to serve their master after they have grown up. Wouldn't that be a greater loss for the Residence of Nine Supremes? "
"There are pros and cons to this collaboration. Your sect has deployed a lot of manpower and resources, but in the process of cultivating these disciples, if they were in the Residence of Nine Supremes, the spiritual Qi and resources used for cultivation would all be provided by the Residence of Nine Supremes. Now, senior, do you still think that the Residence of Nine Supremes would benefit from this collaboration? "
Gan Tianyan was stunned, lowering her head in thought.
Yun Yang was right.
It was impossible to erase the years of teacher-disciple relationship. If he was unable to influence the disciple's feelings, then it would really be the problem of the teacher. When the time came, it might be delusional to say that he could take all of them away, but it was still reasonable to take half of them away!
Moreover, all the resources and spiritual Qi of the venue would be provided by the Residence of Nine Supremes. What she needed to contribute was only a few elites and a few cultivation methods. That was all.
In this way, the situation was not only the Residence of Nine Supremes getting all the benefits, it could almost be said that the Phoenix Cry Sect was using the Residence of Nine Supremes' resources to cultivate its own disciples!
Don't forget, as long as the disciple cultivates our Phoenix Cry Sect's cultivation method, he or she will use our Phoenix Cry Sect's cultivation method when he or she attacks in the future. Isn't that the same as having the Phoenix Cry Sect's imprint on their body?
Gan Tianyan looked hesitant, but in fact, she had already agreed in her heart.
She had even begun to plan who would come over in the future … She would not allow those who were not steady, hot-tempered, and those who were always weird … She would even skip those who were weak.
She must choose those who were strong, absolutely reliable, and had a good temperament …
After a while, Gan Tianyan said in a low voice, "Sect Leader Yun's proposal of cooperation is indeed worth discussing … However, this is a serious matter. I need to go back and discuss it with the sect leader and the few elders …"
Yun Yang laughed heartily and said, "Of course! Of course! In fact, whether your sect agrees or not, it doesn't affect the relationship between our two sects. After all, with Luoluo's sister-in-law here, the relationship between us is unbreakable. "
Gan Tianyan nodded slowly. Yun Yang's words were more realistic, but she still needed to go back and discuss the specific details. If she made a decision now, she would be suspected of overstepping her authority.
Both parties exchanged a few more pleasantries. Gan Tianyan's emotions were getting more and more difficult to conceal. Soon, she bade farewell to Yun Yang and left the Residence of Nine Supremes without stopping, returning to the Phoenix Cry Sect in the night.
It was more important to decide on this matter as soon as possible.
Along the way, they chased after the clouds and broke through the fog, traveling at lightning speed. They traveled day and night in hopes of returning as soon as possible.
Gan Tianyan pondered as she hurried back. There were a total of seventeen to eighteen Saint Kings and three Royal Saints in the sect …
There should be at least seven to eight of them who could be sent out.
Seven or eight people, if each of them taught thirty disciples, then at least two hundred disciples could be taught … As long as the master and the disciple got along well with each other, and the friendship was real, after a few years, when the disciple's body reached the initial level, wouldn't it mean that the Phoenix Cry Sect suddenly had more than two hundred talented disciples?
As long as they had this foundation, it was not impossible for the Phoenix Cry Sect to advance into the top three classes!
It might even be possible for them to ascend to the palace level by then!
One had to know that even a Palace Sect might not have two to three hundred excellent disciples!
…
Inside the Residence of Nine Supremes.
Ping Xiaoyi and Guo Nuanyang looked at Yun Yang and stuttered, "Boss, what … what do you mean by this? Isn't it too risky? "
From their point of view, if the Phoenix Cry Sect were to take in disciples here, even if the disciples who were trained would still bear the title of the Residence of Nine Supremes' disciple for the time being, the situation would be very different after a few years.
The gratitude of being a master was not just a saying, it was an emotion that could not be erased!
If that was the case, it would be better to be poached away right now!
If they were poached away now, the only thing that would be lost would be a few young fellows who had yet to grow up and were less determined. The loss would be negligible, but it would be a pity if they were poached away after they had grown up. It might even be a huge loss!
"Don't be so nervous!" Yun Yang chuckled and comforted them. "I've said it from the beginning. This is a collaboration. Of course, there are pros and cons. Even if the Phoenix Cry Sect really poached away a few hundred people … it's only a few hundred people. We still have more than ten thousand on our side … the ones we lose will only be a fraction, there's no need to worry too much. "
Ping Xiaoyi said, "You're too optimistic. I'd better go and select the disciples quickly. I'll pick out those who are talented first. It's not advisable to sacrifice for others."
"How can you do that?" Yun Yang said unhappily, "Since we're planning to facilitate the collaboration, we should show our goodwill and sincerity.
What's the point of them coming if we're only going to leave them some useless people? We should show the greatest sincerity to our brother sects who have established a friendly relationship. We should open our hearts and let them feel ashamed! "
Guo Nuanyang was dumbfounded.
Ping Xiaoyi was tongue-tied.
Shuang Shuang had nothing to say.
This … this sanctimonious and modest gentleman in front of us, is he really our boss?
Where was the sky that was once nine feet high? Where was the promise of plucking the feathers of a swallow? How could it be like this?
Yun Yang said righteously, "My two brothers, one must be magnanimous as a person. Be magnanimous. "
