— The successor of the Twelve Sword Towers was originally Shen Mengtian.
However, Shen Mengtian violated the precepts three hundred years ago and was thrown into the Nine Serenities. Speaking of which, Shen Yizhou's position as the Young Tower Master was obtained by luck.
Now that the Abandoned Sword Villa had returned with great momentum, there was actually a voice in the Sword Tower that wanted to find the successor of the Sect Master.
Shen Yizhou had to be on guard.
"Rest assured, Young Tower Master." Shen Baihe had been wandering around the Villa these days and had deceived many disciples. He patted his chest and said, "As long as the Young Tower Master makes a move, at least thirty percent of the disciples will be willing to support us. As the saying goes, water flows to the bottom and people walk to the top. Who wouldn't be willing to have the opportunity to join the Twelve Sword Towers? "
The Abandoned Sword Villa was indeed developing now, but compared to the Twelve Sword Towers of the Eight Great Sects, it was still far behind.
How many disciples were loyal and devoted to the Abandoned Sword Villa? Most of the ordinary disciples only came to practice martial arts. How could they let go of a better opportunity?
Therefore, although Shen Baihe had only connected thirty percent of the disciples, he felt that this matter was a success.
"Good!"
Shen Yizhou beamed with joy and praised, "Brother Baihe, you are indeed not a fish in a pond. It is a pity that you stay in the Abandoned Sword Villa and be suppressed by others. When you make a great contribution and return to the Twelve Sword Towers in the future, I can guarantee you the position of Elder and Tower Master. "
The Twelve Sword Towers had twelve tall buildings. Each building had a master who specialized in sword techniques as the Tower Master with a high status.
Shen Yizhou gave Shen Baihe the position of Tower Master as a generous reward to rope him in.
Shen Baihe smiled slightly and said humbly, "Thank you for your appreciation, Young Tower Master. How can I not do my best?"
Shen Yizhou laughed and left.
In the past few days, the atmosphere in the Abandoned Sword Villa had become more and more strange. Many disciples were whispering in low voices, discussing the matter of the twelve Sword Towers.
"Have you heard? The Young Tower Masters of the Twelve Sword Towers have come to visit the Villa. I heard that they want to merge the Abandoned Sword Villa into the Twelve Sword Towers! "
"What … What should we do? How can The Third Prince agree? "
"What do you know? This wasn't a bad thing. The twelve Sword Towers were one of the eight sects, and there were as many experts as there were clouds in the sky. Their status was also respected. Normally, if one wanted to enter the twelve Sword Towers as a disciple, how many tests would one have to go through? For us ordinary people, if our aptitude is average, we won't even be able to touch the door! Now that we have the opportunity to merge with the Federation, wouldn't that be like reaching the heavens in a single bound? "
"Even if it's The Third Prince, who can enter the building to study sword techniques, why wouldn't he be willing?"
Most of the disciples actually felt that this was a good thing.
There were also a few who were clear-headed. They frowned and said, "I heard that when The Third Prince ascended to immortality on the Moon Decapitation and entered the World of Eight Cultivators, he had the opportunity to choose whether or not to join the Twelve Sword Towers. Since he didn't agree at that time, he must have his own ideas. Why would he change his mind now? "
Someone immediately retorted, "At that time, The Third Prince had just arrived in the World of Eight Cultivators, so what did he know? If he knew the status of the Twelve Sword Towers, he definitely wouldn't have rejected them. Now that the Young Tower Master has personally come to invite us, giving us enough face, wouldn't everyone be happy? "
After hearing the rumors circulating in the villa, Shen Shou couldn't sit still and looked for Shen Zhenyi to discuss it. He knew that it was all his eldest son's doing, so he felt both heartache and impatience.
"Third Brother, have you heard those bastards?"
Shen Shou said bitterly.
"No."
Shen Zhenyi was still as indifferent as ever. After obtaining the Woodfern Fritillary Leaf, he could save half of the energy and body refinement in the World of Eight Cultivators. These days, he had been in seclusion to speed up his breakthrough. Of course, he didn't have time to listen to rumors.
Shen Shou was speechless.
This son of his is just too simple. Apart from the sword, he has nothing else in his life. He's simply a sword fanatic.
He heard that King Dalong Of Zhao of the Dragon Emperor Palace wanted to betroth Princess Long to him, but he flatly refused, saying that he only pursued the path of the sword and didn't care about the feelings between a man and a woman.
... This is a bit too cold-hearted.
Children are always worrisome. Shen Shou sighed. Now that this was a big matter in the villa, he could only patiently explain it to Shen Zhenyi.
"Recently, there are rumors in the villa that our Abandoned Sword Villa is about to merge with the twelve Sword Towers. Many disciples believe this. When the time comes, if Shen Baihe and Shen Yizhou fight, it will be troublesome."
Merge?
Shen Zhenyi couldn't help but laugh. Shen Yizhou is really wishful thinking.
He shook his head. "The merger of the two sects is absolutely impossible. I will never agree."
When he first entered the World of Eight Cultivators, he didn't agree to the merger, let alone now.
Now that the Abandoned Sword Villa was like the sun at noon, he had already begun to figure out the path of Moon Decapitation. How could he have the time to fight for power and profit?
"Now that the public opinion of the disciples is like this, if we don't agree, I'm afraid many disciples will follow them and leave..."
Shen Shou was in a difficult position, but Shen Zhenyi didn't care and said with a smile, "It's up to you. This time, we're getting rid of the bad and keeping the good, so why not?"
"This... Isn't this a big loss of face for you?"
Shen Shou was worried about this. The Third Young Master Shen was now very popular. If there was a fire in his backyard and he couldn't even protect his disciples, it was inevitable that some people would say something unpleasant.
"They want to make me lose face? That's not enough."
Even if the leader of the twelve Sword Towers, Shen Zhenyi, came, he might not necessarily care, let alone a mere Young Tower Master.
Shen Shou was speechless. This son of his was good at everything, but he was too overconfident.
However, he had never been defeated. This kind of confidence was condensed from one victory after another, and it couldn't be changed.
Not to mention Shen Shou's worries, Shen Zhenyi returned to the Dream Sword Villa and still focused on the sword, not caring about the outside world.
In March, Shen Yizhou and Shen Baihe felt that the preparations to stir up the disciples' emotions were almost done. Shen Yizhou mobilized people and began to stir up trouble.
At first, the disciples they arranged deliberately clashed with the ordinary disciples, saying that they felt that the martial arts of the twelve Sword Towers were superior, and they hoped to integrate the villa into the twelve Sword Towers. The disciples who were loyal to the villa naturally felt that it was unreasonable, and the two sides argued, almost to the point of fighting.
Shen Baihe and Shen Yizhou first came to mediate, hypocritically persuading them to reconcile.
When Shen Shou heard the news, he came just in time to hear Shen Yizhou's impassioned speech. "If the disciples have such a wish, I will discuss with Villa Master Shen and The Third Prince before making a decision. You can rest assured."
What qualifications do you have to say this? Shen Shou was fuming.
