Keeping a low profile was the way to go. Qin Lang deeply agreed with this principle.
The reason why Qin Lang stayed in Tangmen's headquarters for the time being was to continue to keep a low profile. The bird that sticks out will be shot. The old saying definitely made sense. Qin Lang did not want to be the bird that sticks out. However, what Qin Lang had done in the past few days had gradually made him the one to stand out, so he had to find ways to keep a low profile.
Letting Tang San be the leader of Tangmen and subduing Tang Shengyin was to let them cooperate with Qin Lang to keep a low profile.
He had no choice but to keep a low profile. If the big shots of the Buddhist Sect and Taoist Sect saw that the Poison Sect, which should have been extinct, had suddenly risen from the ashes and become powerful rapidly, these big shots would definitely not be able to keep their cool. Although Buddhism and Taoism should know that Qin Lang had inherited the inheritance of Poisons, this news would not attract the attention of those big shots. Because in their eyes, Qin Lang was just an ant that could be crushed to death at any time. But now, Qin Lang controlled the Ten Halls of Hell, subdued Tangmen, Five Poisons, and Art Sect in one fell swoop. He already had the potential to become a Roc. The big shots of Buddhism and Taoism could ignore the existence of an ant, but they would never allow a new Roc to break into their airspace. Therefore, once the big shots of Buddhism and Taoism knew that Qin Lang had regained control of Tangmen, Five Poisons, and Corpse Worm Sect, Poisons and Qin Lang would probably face a devastating blow.
This was definitely not an alarmist talk. If one did not remove the roots, the weeds would grow again when the wind blew. All these years, the old Poisons had been cultivating Qin Lang, the only heir, in a very low-key manner, because he did not want to cut off the inheritance of Poisons. Now that Qin Lang had made a high-profile appearance and Poisons had made a high-profile comeback, it would inevitably arouse strong uneasiness from the Buddhist Sect and Taoist Sect. Qin Lang did not have full confidence that he could deal with the joint attack of the Buddhist Sect and Taoist Sect. In fact, he did not even have 30% confidence.
One had to know that Qin Lang had used almost all of his strength just to deal with Tangmen, and Tangmen was just a sect under Poisons, an existence on the second floor of the Tower of Babel. It was conceivable that if the masters of the Buddhist Sect and Taoist Sect were to move out in full force, the Poisons would probably repeat the same mistakes of destruction. Besides, aside from the Buddhist Sect and the Taoist Sect, there was also the Medicine Sect and the Art Sect. They were like fire and water with the Poisons. Once they have the chance to destroy the Poisons' orthodoxy, these two forces would never let go of the opportunity.
Therefore, Qin Lang had to keep a low profile and not let the people in Jianghu know that Poisons had made a high-profile comeback. If he wanted to keep a low profile, he had to maintain the original structure: Tangmen would still be Tangmen, and Five Poisons would still be Five Poisons.
Qin Lang subdued Tang Shengyin to buy the hearts of Tangmen and control Tangmen through Tang Shengyin and Tang San. In name, Tangmen would still be Tangmen and an independent sect. He could not spread the news that Tangmen had returned to Poisons. In order to control the news, Qin Lang had spent a lot of effort to buy Tang Shengyin and then put Tang San in the position of Sect Master. Only then could Qin Lang block the news.
As long as in the eyes of the people in Jianghu, Tangmen and Five Poisons were still an independent sect, they would continue to look down on the Poisons and Qin Lang, the Sect Master of Poisons. Qin Lang would have more time to consolidate the Poisons and further develop and grow.
This time, Qin Lang could be said to be taking a risk to deal with the three forces of Tangmen, Five Poisons, and the Art Sect. But this time, he had to take the risk, because this was the most suitable time for Qin Lang to take action. Qin Lang was very sure that the major forces such as Buddhism and Taoism were still paying attention to the movements of the Poisons. They could allow some of the remnants of the Poisons to exist and let these remnants become their "hunting" targets and boast about their achievements, but they would never allow a powerful Poisons to appear again. Therefore, once Qin Lang, the heir of Poisons, reached the Martial Soul Realm or revived the Poisons, then these major forces would immediately suppress Qin Lang with the force of a thunderbolt and would not give him any chance.
And now, Qin Lang had taken action to unify the Poison Sect, which was something that no one had expected. In fact, if this news were to be leaked out, it was likely that many people in the Jianghu would not believe it at the first moment. This was because Qin Lang was currently only at the Spirit Focus Realm. No one would believe that a brat at the Spirit Focus Realm would be able to intimidate colossi like the Tang Sect, the Five Venoms Sect, and the Art Sect.
It was precisely because no one believed that this was the best time for Qin Lang to take action. By the time these people discovered the fact that the Poisons had been reorganized, it should be too late, because at that time, the strength of the Poisons and Qin Lang would inevitably be greatly improved.
Through Tang Shengyin and Tang San, Qin Lang had basically completed his control over Tangmen. Subsequently, Qin Lang met Five Poisons Sect's Yan Xiuse alone in the meeting hall.
Yan Xiuse was a mixed descendant of the Han and Miao clans, but because she had lived in the Miao territory for a long time, her personality was as bold and wild as many Miao women. She was definitely a decisive woman, but this woman was now suppressed by Qin Lang to the point that she did not have any temper. When she learned that Qin Lang had summoned her alone, Yan Xiuse felt a little uneasy. She even thought that Qin Lang had taken a fancy to her beauty, so he wanted to take her as a concubine. Regarding this, Yan Xiuse did not hate Qin Lang, because if she had won, she might have crippled Qin Lang's martial arts and made Qin Lang her gigolo. No matter what, it should have been very interesting to make the dignified Sect Master of Poisons a gigolo. Unfortunately, the truth was the exact opposite. Everyone thought that Qin Lang would lose, but he had won.
Yan Xiuse walked into the meeting hall and bowed respectfully to Qin Lang. Then, she said, "Sect Master, I have offended you in the past and did not know what was good for me. I hope you can forgive me. However, I wonder why Sect Master planted a spiritual imprint on me? Could it be that Sect Master has taken a fancy to my beauty — "
"Yan Xiuse, I have no interest in your beauty." Qin Lang directly interrupted Yan Xiuse's words. "Although you're not bad looking, you're a woman full of ambition. You're not my type, so you can be at ease. I won't force you. Also, I called you here to tell you that you can go back and continue being the Sect Master of Five Poisons, but there is one thing you must guarantee — "
"Please instruct me, Sect Master!" Yan Xiuse was indeed an ambitious woman, so she cared a lot about her position as the Sect Master. Before coming here, she had already thought about it carefully. As long as Qin Lang allowed her to continue being the Sect Master of Five Poisons, it was fine even if she had to be Qin Lang's concubine.
"You are not allowed to reveal any information about what happened here to the outside world! I want the people of the pugilistic world to think that Five Poisons is still the original Five Poisons, and that Tangmen is still the original Tangmen. Understand? "
"Understood." Yan Xiuse was a smart woman, so she understood immediately.
