"There's something else that I would like to give you, Sect Leader," Alchemist Murong said seriously.
Lin Yun nodded and gestured for him to continue.
"When I was in the Darkness Sect, I received a piece of news." Alchemist Murong looked into Lin Yun's eyes and said with a rare seriousness, "The Sacred Alliance is very interested in you, Sect Leader. I don't know the reason behind this."
"Sect Leader is powerful, and Tu Shenzong is developing like the sun in the sky."
"However, this kind of strength is still not enough in front of the Sacred Alliance."
"My suggestion is to seek protection from one of the forces and work with them."
"You're talking about the Sacred Sect, right?" Lin Yun furrowed his brows. He already knew what Alchemist Murong was trying to say before he finished his sentence.
Alchemist Murong nodded. He had been thinking about this for a long time.
Lin Yun had offended the Sacred Alliance before. Based on the way the Sacred Alliance did things, just the crime of causing trouble in a branch was enough to sentence Lin Yun to death.
"Sect Leader, I think so too. Moreover, the Ocean King has already said that if he can introduce us, the Sacred Sect will be more than happy to accept us, "Ye Shenghui advised.
He and Alchemist Murong were once members of The Seven Devils and had received a lot of resources from the Sacred Sect. They knew very well how much help the Sacred Sect could provide them.
At least if they joined forces with the Sacred Sect and the other devil sects, they would not be so weak in front of the Sacred Alliance. It was the same logic as a chopstick breaking easily, but a pile of chopsticks would not be easily broken.
This time, Lin Yun's attitude was not as firm. He waved his hand and said, "I'll think about it."
At noon the next day, Tu Shenzong's meeting was held. All the higher-ups gathered in the main hall of Longhu City.
During this period of time, everyone was extremely relaxed. Their faces were rosy and full of energy.
Headed by Xiao Yin, Long Chenfeng, Hu Heixin, and Yasuo stood on the right side of the nine steps, while headed by Prince Namgong, Shanghai Xiayan, Lin Ying, and the others stood on the left side of the nine steps.
Everyone raised their heads and looked in the direction of the giant door of the main hall.
Not long after, four figures slowly walked in. Everyone cupped their hands and shouted respectfully, "Welcome, Sect Master!"
Lin Yun held his head high and chest out. Behind him were the three Wu Sheng masters, Murong Alchemist, Ye Shenghui, and Seijen.
Lin Yun walked up the stairs alone and sat on the throne, while the three Wu Sheng brothers stood side by side on the stairs.
"Take your seats." Lin Yun waved his hand and gestured for everyone to take their seats.
After everyone was seated, Lin Yun raised his wine glass and smiled. "Everyone has worked hard during this period of time. Cheers!"
After a round of drinks, Lin Yun went straight to the point and told everyone the purpose of the meeting.
"There are three things for this meeting, and there's also one good thing that I need to tell everyone," Lin Yun put down his wine glass and said calmly, "Let's first announce this good thing."
"Murong Alchemist and Seijen Island Master will officially join Tu Shenzong as one of us."
The atmosphere in the main hall became a little strange when he said that.
Everyone stared at each other. Some of them looked confused, while others were happy.
They would definitely welcome Seijen to join them.
However, Murong Alchemist used to be the Grand Elder of the Dark Sect, and he had created many mutated creatures and androids to harm them.
Even though Murong Alchemist had done his best for them, they still couldn't accept him completely.
Lin Yun could see the dissatisfaction in everyone's eyes. He had already expected this.
Lin Yun explained confidently, "I know that all of you have a grudge against Murong, but to prevent the same thing from happening again, I think I need to explain."
Hu Heixin smiled in shame when he said that. He knew that Lin Yun was talking about how he had made things difficult for Ye Shenghui and almost died in a branch of the Dark Sect.
"Firstly, Murong joined the Dark Sect because his parents were killed by Dark Yong. That's why he endured the humiliation and followed Dark Yong as an undercover agent. He tried to assassinate Dark Yong to take revenge for his family.
"Although he created many mutated creatures and androids, Murong didn't participate in the use of these mutated creatures and androids.
"Dark Yong was the one who led the persecution of the citizens and killing us. It had nothing to do with Murong."
Everyone wasn't very satisfied with Lin Yun's explanation. Although Dark Yong was the one who led it, those things were created by Murong. Therefore, Murong couldn't escape responsibility.
"Secondly, Murong didn't just save my life. He also saved Ye Shenghui, Xiao Yin, and the others.
"If it wasn't for Murong, to be honest, I wouldn't have been able to kill Dark Yong."
Lin Yun wasn't exaggerating at all. Murong saved his life. If it wasn't for Murong upgrading his bloodline and giving him the Demon Venerable Blood Crystal, the result would probably be the same as the one on the Hundred Beast Island if he fought with Dark Yong again.
When he heard this, Hu Heixin was the first to express his opinion. He raised his wine glass and said, "Mr. Murong, I'm a rough man!"
"You saved our lives earlier. We haven't had the chance to thank you."
"Today, let's toast to you. Congratulations to you and Island Owner Seijen for joining our Tu Shenzong!"
At this point, everyone else also raised their wine glasses to congratulate Murong and Seijen for joining Tu Shenzong.
Even though Alchemist Murong had a cold personality, he couldn't resist everyone's enthusiasm.
In an instant, the atmosphere in the hall became very cheerful. Everyone raised their glasses to celebrate.
After a while, Lin Yun raised his hand and signaled for everyone to be quiet. He then said, "Because we've taken in many sects and forces that were previously enslaved by the Dark Sect, it indirectly made Tu Shenzong stronger."
"The first thing we'll do today is to rearrange our duties in the sect."
After the battle ended, Xiao Yin, Yasuo, Long Chenfeng, and the rest led their armies and took over many of the Dark Sect's resources in the outside world. There were also some sects and forces that were previously enslaved by the Dark Sect that joined Tu Shenzong.
Lin Yun stood up and looked around at everyone. He announced the first duty, which was the position of sect master. Naturally, Lin Yun would still be the same.
"This time, the two vice sect masters' positions will not change. They'll still be Xiao Yin and Ye Shenghui."
Although Xiao Yin's abilities weren't top-notch in the sect, she was the person that Lin Yun trusted the most.
As for Ye Shenghui, he was powerful and had signed a Master-servant Contract with Lin Yun. He was the best candidate for the vice sect master's position.
"The God Slaying Messenger of the Left will be Alchemist Murong. At the same time, Alchemist Murong will be the Technique Research Hall Master."
"The God Slaying Messenger of the Right will be Seijen. At the same time, he will be the East Sea Island Owner."
