However, Heaven Obscuring Mind could not possibly give up the position of leader of Mount Fangzhang and the Three Great Immortal Mountains, so he said in a low voice, "Sect Leader Gu, don't be an alarmist! Even if the Three Great Immortal Mountains should unite, you shouldn't be the leader. Whether it's in terms of cultivation realm or aptitude, when has it ever been your turn? What's more, Sect Leader Gu, you're only a guest at Mount Fangzhang today. I hope you remember this. As a guest, you shouldn't interfere with the master's affairs! "
"I've already said that the Three Great Immortal Mountains are one. Any cultivator of the Three Great Immortal Mountains has the right to consider the future of the Three Great Immortal Mountains. Sect Leader Fang, are you not going to let me speak?" Gu Qingxun still refused to back down. It was clear that she wanted to fall out with Heaven Obscuring Mind.
Truth be told, Heaven's Obscuring Square had not expected Gu Qingxun to fall out with him at this time and place. After all, this was Mount Fangzhang. Gu Qingxun had only brought Qin Lang, a single disciple of her sect, here. Was she not afraid that Heaven's Obscuring Square would fall out with him and kill her and Qin Lang together?
However, Gu Qingxun was not worried at all, because she knew that would not happen. The Heaven Shrouding Square had lost his prestige on Mount Fangzhang. Among the three Immortal Mountains, the Heaven Shrouding Square's reputation was far inferior to Gu Qingxun's. If the Ocean Emperor had not personally gone to the Penglai Immortal Island to form an alliance, perhaps the Heaven Shrouding Square would have had a chance of winning. However, since the Sea People Tribe had formed an alliance with the Penglai Immortal Island, and it was the Ocean Emperor herself, no one in the three Immortal Mountains could compare to Gu Qingxun's reputation. It did not matter even if Gu Qingxun's cultivation realm was not the highest among the Three Great Immortal Mountains. Controlling the Three Great Immortal Mountains required more than just cultivation strength.
"Sect Leader Gu, it's not your place to talk about Mount Fangzhang's affairs!" Heaven Obscuring Mind decided to shed all pretense of cordiality. Since Gu Qingxun had said so, she must be fearless. In other words, Gu Qingxun must have made preparations for her attack this time. If Heaven Obscuring Mind did not work together to deal with her, it was very likely that he would lose his position as the Sect Leader of Mount Fangzhang. Although he felt that Gu Qingxun shouldn't be able to take charge of Mount Fangzhang, there were already signs of that happening. He couldn't afford to lose now.
"The matters of Mount Fangzhang aren't something that you, Scholar of Concealing the Heavens, can decide alone!" At this moment, a Mount Fangzhang's Grand Supreme Elder suddenly appeared and made it clear that he was here to support Gu Qingxun. "Heaven's Encompassing Mind, you've been in charge of Mount Fangzhang for many years. If you had achieved even half of Sect Master Gu's achievements, I wouldn't have spoken up for Sect Master Gu today. However, it's too bad. Heaven's Encompassing Mind, when you were in charge of Mount Fangzhang, you really didn't achieve much. Instead, you allowed some of the enemy's hidden chess pieces to be placed on Mount Fangzhang. If Sect Master Gu hadn't informed us of this information, I'm afraid Mount Fangzhang would have already been overthrown by some fellows with ulterior motives. Therefore, if the Three Major Immortal Mountains were to unite, I believe that Sect Leader Gu is the most qualified to become the leader of the Three Major Immortal Mountains! "
"Martial Uncle … Why are you speaking up for an outsider?!" Heaven's Encompassing Mind was furious. He didn't expect Mount Fangzhang's Grand Supreme Elder to openly support Gu Qingxun. What kind of nonsense was that?
Heaven's Encompassing Mind had no idea that the reason why this Mount Fangzhang's Grand Supreme Elder supported Gu Qingxun was naturally because he had received great benefits from Gu Qingxun. Otherwise, why would this Mount Fangzhang's Grand Supreme Elder speak up for Gu Qingxun? Gu Qingxun had Qin Lang's support, so it was all too easy for him to 'gift' these Mount Fangzhang's Grand Supreme Elders. Moreover, the gifts he sent were all good stuff that they couldn't refuse.
Furthermore, the Mount Fangzhang's Grand Supreme Elders were indeed somewhat dissatisfied with Heaven's Encompassing Mind. Heaven's Encompassing Mind had been in charge of Mount Fangzhang for a very long time, but he really hadn't achieved much. In any case, compared to Gu Qingxun, he simply paled in comparison. If Mount Fangzhang's Grand Supreme Elders needed to choose a spokesperson, then Gu Qingxun was definitely more suitable. Heaven's Encompassing Mind was simply too weak!
To put it bluntly, the sect leader of a sect was nothing more than a spokesperson chosen by the Grand Supreme Elders. However, this sect leader must serve the Grand Supreme Elders and fight for the Grand Supreme Elders' benefits. Otherwise, his position as the sect leader wouldn't be stable. The reason why the Grand Supreme Elders dared to oversee things behind the scenes was because they wanted to focus on cultivation. Focusing on cultivation also required sufficient cultivation resources. If Gu Qingxun could provide the Mount Fangzhang's Grand Supreme Elders with benefits that far exceeded what Heaven's Encompassing Mind could provide, then the Mount Fangzhang's Grand Supreme Elders would really have the idea of letting Gu Qingxun replace Heaven's Encompassing Mind.
However, the precondition was that the benefits that the Fangzhang Mountain's Supreme Elders obtained from Gu Qingxun far exceeded the benefits that the Heaven's Concealment Scholar received. Otherwise, the Fangzhang Mountain's Supreme Elders definitely wouldn't be willing to support Gu Qingxun.
"Heaven's Encompassing Mind, although I'm your Martial Uncle, I think you're too stubborn on this matter! You're too extreme! Now that the three Great Immortal Mountains have joined forces, this is the general trend. Any disciple can see it. Look at these Mount Fangzhang cultivators around you. Can't you see what they're really thinking from their eyes? " This Mount Fangzhang's Grand Supreme Elder was trying his best to persuade Gu Qingxun. However, his words resonated with many Mount Fangzhang cultivators. For ordinary Mount Fangzhang cultivators, the alliance of the three Great Immortal Mountains was definitely beneficial. Moreover, the ordinary Mount Fangzhang cultivators had already tasted the benefits.
Ever since the disciples of the three Great Immortal Mountains began to communicate and work together, these ordinary disciples had more or less learned some of the techniques of the other two sects. They had also gotten to know some like-minded cultivators from the other two sects. All in all, many of the ordinary disciples of Mount Fangzhang had truly benefited from Gu Qingxun. As such, it was only natural that they would support Gu Qingxun. It was because of Gu Qingxun that the disciples of the three great immortal mountains were able to cooperate with each other. At this time, Heaven's Encompassing Mind wanted to compete with Gu Qingxun. Although Gu Qingxun was the Sect Leader of Mount Fangzhang, he might not have received as much support as Gu Qingxun.
Heaven's Encompassing Mind groaned inwardly. He looked around and saw that there weren't many cultivators who truly supported him. However, Heaven's Encompassing Mind didn't care about this because he knew that these ordinary disciples of Mount Fangzhang couldn't influence the overall situation. The real problem lay with the Grand Supreme Elders of Mount Fangzhang. If these Grand Supreme Elders could continue supporting him, then Gu Qingxun wouldn't be able to shake his position at all. However, the crux of the matter was that other voices had actually appeared among the Grand Supreme Elders. This was the real problem: the ordinary low-level cultivators no longer supported him. Now, even the higher-level Grand Supreme Elders had begun to doubt his abilities. Heaven's Encompassing Mind immediately felt that he was going to be out of luck!
