Of course, Lin Feng would also have to face the situation of offending Dao Lingtian, but the struggle for power had always been one of mutual deception, and Lin Feng did not want to be a mere figurehead.
Dao Lingtian had taken away the Law Enforcement Hall that originally belonged to him, and Lin Feng was also extremely dissatisfied with Dao Lingtian.
Since Lin Feng had already decided to become one of the four successors of the Temple of Spiritual Array Masters, then he had to do his best to seize as much power as possible. What was the point of being a figurehead of the Temple of Spiritual Array Masters?
Lin Feng said, "I will mention this matter to Vice Head Murong Baishan and the others."
"Great Elder is truly righteous! In the future, the Temple of Spiritual Array Masters will sing the praises of Great Elder, and the future generations will definitely remember it. If not for Great Elder's wise decision today, the Temple of Spiritual Array Masters might have fallen from prosperity to decline. "
Liu Shibao cupped his fists and said.
Lin Feng said, "Vice Head Head, there is no need to make me sound so noble. The reason why I helped Vice Head Head was because I did not want the Law Enforcement Hall to be controlled by someone like Mo Leng Chan, and also because the Law Enforcement Hall originally belonged to me in the future. Dao Lingtian forcefully took it away, so how could I let him have his way? What belongs to me, no one can take it away. Let's end our conversation here today.
Liu Shibao and Dong Yunhe personally sent Lin Feng off.
The next day, Niu Dajiang's body had almost recovered, and Lin Feng had Murong Baishan arrange for Niu Dajiang and the others to be guards of the Temple of Spiritual Array Masters.
The group of people was wild with joy.
They did not even dare to believe that they had actually become guards of the Temple of Spiritual Array Masters. This made everyone feel like they were dreaming.
"Big Black, give me a slap. I want to see if I'm dreaming." Oxman said to a dark-skinned man beside him.
Slap!
The muscular man called Big Black slapped Oxman's face, causing Oxman to see stars.
"It's true, it's all true!" Oxman shouted excitedly.
Nalan Yuanfang said, "Brother Dajiang, in the future, your task will be to patrol at night, and you'll be paid one thousand five hundred top-level spirit stones every year. If you perform well, you'll be promoted, and you'll be paid even more. You can start to bring your family members to live with you. Each of you will be given a courtyard. Of course, if you don't want to bring your family members to live with you, you can save up spirit stones for a few years, and then buy a small city to settle your family members. Every year, you'll have three months of vacation, and you can go back to accompany them."
Niu Dajiang and the others were incomparably excited, because the treatment of the Spirit Array Master Temple was too good.
No wonder countless people racked their brains to enter the Temple of Spiritual Array Masters.
Niu Dajiang and the others were glad that they knew Lin Feng. If they didn't know Lin Feng, how could they, as rogue cultivators, enter the Temple of Spiritual Array Masters?
…
Niu Dajiang and the others quickly went to thank Lin Feng. Lin Feng took the time to meet them, and Niu Dajiang returned Lin Feng's Great Elder Jade Tablet to Lin Feng.
Lin Feng encouraged Niu Dajiang and the others, telling them to work hard, and that the Temple of Spiritual Array Masters would not treat them badly.
After Niu Dajiang and the others left, Murong Baishan, Wang Yangyi, He Datong, and Tan Chuduan came to Lin Feng.
Lin Feng told the four Deputy Temple Masters about what Dong Yunhe had told him yesterday at Willow Stone Castle.
Originally, Wang Yangyi wanted to mention to Lin Feng, hoping that Lin Feng could nominate Wang Tianyao as a Deputy Temple Master in the future.
Now, the person directly benefiting from Willow Stone Castle's impeachment of Mo Lengchan was his son, Wang Tianyao.
Therefore, Wang Yangyi naturally supported Willow Stone Castle's decision to impeach Mo Lengchan.
Murong Baishan said, "I originally wanted to mention the matter of the Enforcement Hall to the Great Elder, but since Willow Stone Castle has already proposed it, I also agree with Willow Stone Castle's suggestion. The Enforcement Hall is too important, and it originally belonged to the Great Elder, but now it has been forcefully taken away by Dao Lingtian. The Temple of Spiritual Array Masters is also a place where the strong prey on the weak. If you shrink back now, I'm afraid that you will become a laughingstock in the future. When the time comes, the Great Elder will have no real power in the Temple of Spiritual Array Masters.
Lin Feng nodded and said, "If that's the case, then when the Deputy Temple Master Conference convenes, you can discuss Willow Stone Castle's suggestion."
Murong Baishan and the others nodded.
Lin Feng continued, "When will the four Ancestors come out of seclusion?"
Tan Chuduan said, "The four Ancestors are currently in seclusion in the Extreme Yuan Immortal Realm. They should be coming out soon."
…
In the afternoon, two middle-aged men wearing Daoist robes walked out of the Extreme Yuan Immortal Realm.
They were cultivators who served the four Ancestors. Although they didn't have any official positions in the Temple, their statuses were extremely high.
Today, the two of them had come to pass on the final decree of the four Ancestors.
They had appointed Lin Feng as the head examiner of the Three Thousand Provinces Finals.
Very quickly, news of this matter spread throughout the Temple.
With this matter settled, Lin Feng's status as the fourth successor was confirmed.
After the four Ancestors came out of seclusion, they would probably summon Lin Feng to officially announce this matter.
Many people came to congratulate Lin Feng.
Lin Feng, however, was rather calm.
At night, someone came to visit Lin Feng.
It was the Enforcement Hall's Hall Master, Mo Lengchan.
It was Lin Feng's first time meeting Mo Lengchan.
Mo Lengchan was thin and had a sinister look in his eyes. He gave off a very uncomfortable feeling. When he saw Lin Feng, he smiled and cupped his fists, saying, "Grand Elder Lin, it's an honor to meet you …"
Lin Feng also cupped his fists, saying, "May I know why Hall Master Mo is here?"
Mo Lengchan said, "I already know that Willow Castle is looking for Grand Elder Lin. Lord Dao Lingtian also knows."
Lin Feng frowned slightly, saying, "What does Hall Master Mo want to say?"
Mo Lengchan said, "Lord Dao Lingtian wants me to pass on a message to Grand Elder Lin."
"There's no harm in saying it." Lin Feng said.
Mo Lengchan continued, "Sun Yumu and Zong Zhenghuang are both descendants of the ancestors. They have known each other for many years and have been training on the same planet for so long. I'm afraid that their friendship runs deep. Lord Dao Lingtian and Grand Elder Lin, on the other hand, do not have a strong background. They both relied on their own abilities to reach their current positions. Lord Dao Lingtian wants to join forces with Grand Elder Lin, but he won't have to fight alone against Sun Yumu and Zong Zhenghuang."
Lin Feng knocked on the table, saying, "That's it?"
Mo Lengchan nodded, saying, "Grand Elder Lin is a smart man. I'm sure you understand Lord Dao Lingtian's intentions."
Lin Feng sneered in his heart.
This Dao Lingtian was going too far.
He had sent Mo Lengchan to talk about this matter. If the two of them really joined forces, then Willow Castle's impeachment of Mo Lengchan would naturally cease.
Mo Lengchan would still be free and unpunished.
However …
Dao Lingtian did not mention the matter of the Enforcement Hall's Hall Master.
If Dao Lingtian was sincere, then he should have returned the power of the Enforcement Hall to Lin Feng.
However, since Dao Lingtian did not mention this matter, it meant that he did not have any sincerity. Or perhaps Dao Lingtian was too used to being high and mighty. Did he think that Lin Feng would listen to him just because he said something?
"I still have some matters to attend to, so I won't keep Hall Master Mo any longer." Lin Feng said indifferently.
Mo Lengchan's expression darkened. Lin Feng was already sending him off, but he did not hear the answer he wanted.
"Grand Elder Lin should know our Lord's abilities. Joining forces with our Lord is a win-win situation. Otherwise …" Mo Lengchan narrowed his eyes at Lin Feng, his tone turning cold and threatening.
