At the summit of the Saint Mountain, in the conference hall, the higher-ups of the Saint Lotus Dao arrived one after another.
Currently, Elder Li Futao and the two Golden Corpses were guarding the Flying Locust City in the Spiritual Land Domain. The rest of the higher-ups had returned to the True Martial Domain.
As time passed, more and more people arrived in the hall. Yan Hui, Jing Wushang, Tie Lie, Jing Lan, Dun Fei, Wu Huan, Li Qiushui, Chi Wufeng, Tian Xie, Cao Tianding, Maki Cangsheng, Mu Qingxue, Yin Xueqiao, Shen Yueling, Yin Bieli, and dozens of other elders from the Elder Pavilion as well as some new talents that had been promoted over the past few years gradually took their seats. There were a total of over two hundred people.
These people, in addition to Lin Xuan himself, formed the core of the Saint Lotus Dao's authority.
At this very moment, the atmosphere in the hall was a little heavy. At the same time, many people had faint excitement in their eyes.
For such a grand event, there was bound to be a huge change in policy. For the current Saint Lotus Dao, the most urgent change was the division of the parish and the selection of the twelve Religious Heads.
In the current Saint Lotus Dao, Dao Head Lin Xuan was at the prime of his life. He had great prestige and unparalleled authority. No one was qualified to covet his position. No one even dared to think about it.
Apart from the position of Dao Head, the most tempting position was probably the Religious Head position.
The Religious Head of the Saint Lotus Dao was a true feudal lord who had great autonomy. If it was managed properly, it could even overshadow the headquarters and control the life and death of billions of people. It had supreme authority.
On the coiling dragon throne above, Lin Xuan's original body was sitting upright. He looked straight ahead and secretly took in everyone's expressions. He was secretly laughing in his heart.
In this world, absolute loyalty didn't exist.
The reason why he could strictly control his subordinates all these years wasn't because of the loyalty of his subordinates. Instead, it was because of his prestige, common interests, the Dragon Emperor's Golden Book, and faith.
As for whether their loyalty was real or fake, Lin Xuan didn't really care.
Lin Xuan's gaze swept across everyone's faces.
Among these people, some of them were familiar with him, some of them he didn't have much contact with, and some of them were newcomers he had only met a few times.
When he saw Jing Wushang, Lin Xuan stopped and asked, "Jing Wushang, when did you come back?"
Jing Wushang stood up and said, "Reporting to Daoist Master, this subordinate has just returned today and has yet to report to you."
A year and a half ago, Jing Wushang was sent to Blood Moon Secret Realm by Lin Xuan to investigate the spatial passageway to Light Void Realm.
It had only been a short one and a half years, but Jing Wushang had actually advanced from the early level of the Heavenly Transformation Realm to the late level of the Heavenly Transformation Realm. It was obvious that he had obtained a great opportunity in the Blood Moon Hidden Realm.
"Alright, tell me what you found out," Lin Xuan said.
Jing Wushang said, "After I entered the Blood Moon Hidden Realm, I couldn't wait for the day of the Blood Tide, so I planned to dive into the depths of the Blood Sea to look for the spatial passageway.
However, I failed in the end. The Blood Sea is very strange and can swallow and decompose anything. After we lost dozens of divine guards, we had no choice but to give up on this plan.
After that, we waited for more than five months and finally waited for the night of the Blood Moon Great Tide. On that night, the Blood Sea in the Secret Realm flowed backwards and revealed a spatial passageway.
I brought people into the spatial passageway and after three days and three nights of transmission, we finally entered a vast world and appeared on an abandoned mineral star with few people.
I caught a few natives and interrogated them. In the end, I confirmed that the world was Light Void Realm.
Moreover, that abandoned mineral star was very close to Light Void Realm's main star, Light Void Star. If we had the assistance of a Dao Rank Flying Treasure, we would only need seven days to reach Light Void Star.
I didn't have a Dao Rank Flying Treasure, but I wanted to go to Light Void Star to confirm. Therefore, I brought the remaining divine guards and traveled through the starry sky. After more than a month, we were lucky to find the right direction and arrived at Light Void Star.
However, we lost more than fifty divine guards on the way. In the end, only twenty-eight of us reached Light Void Star.
After stopping at Light Void Star for a while, I left ten people to scout out the situation in Light Void World and brought the remaining seventeen back along the original path.
I waited at the underwater passageway for more than half a year until the Blood Tide came again. Only then did I return to the Dragon Sealing Pagoda. "
After listening to Jing Wushang's narration, everyone in the hall couldn't help but be amazed. Although Jing Wushang's narration was brief, everyone could hear the dangers involved.
Lin Xuan also sighed inwardly. In fact, if he used the Chaos Token, he could easily travel through Light Void World.
However, in order to hide his identity, he had to use a path on the surface as a cover. Only then would he be able to protect himself to the greatest extent.
As for Jing Wushang and the others who had made great contributions, Lin Xuan naturally rewarded them handsomely. In addition to the contribution points, he also bestowed two Dao Weapons, a Blood Dao Longsword and a Flying Dao Treasure. As for the divine guards who accompanied them, they were also rewarded with countless resources.
After dealing with Jing Wushang's matter, Lin Xuan began to talk about the main topic of the day.
He coughed lightly and said in a calm tone, "Everyone, the Divine Lotus Path is where it is today because of everyone's hard work and hard work. Everyone present has contributed greatly to the Divine Lotus Path.
However, as the sect has grown, many problems have gradually become apparent. Looking at it from all aspects, the internal transformation of our Divine Lotus Path is imperative.
However, we still need to come up with a plan for how to make the most beneficial changes to the sect. "
After Lin Xuan finished speaking, the crowd looked at each other and whispered to each other.
A moment later, a white-haired elder stood up and cupped his hands. "Sect Master, this subordinate believes that due to the need of the situation, our Divine Lotus Path could only gather the majority of our forces in one place. This is actually against the rules.
Since ancient times, the Divine Lotus Path has been divided into the Headquarters, the Twelve Sects, and several branches.
Now that the sect is on the right track, I believe that we should follow the ancient system and restore the original system. We should select the Twelve Sects' Sect Masters from the best of the best and spread the word to the world! "
Lin Xuan nodded slightly and said, "Elder Yuan believes that we should follow the ancient system and restore the Twelve Sects' system. Does anyone present have a different opinion?"
The crowd looked left and right but no one said anything.
In fact, most of them hoped to establish a Sect Master and become a feudal lord. Even if this batch of people had no hope, they still had hope for the future.
Lin Xuan looked at Yan Hui and asked, "Elder Yan, what do you think?"
Yan Hui stood up and cupped his hands. "Sect Master, I have no opinion. I will follow Sect Master's orders."
Lin Xuan smiled and nodded, indicating for Yan Hui to sit down.
However, he laughed bitterly in his heart. This time, he was a little too anxious. He did not even arrange for someone to act on his behalf and held this grand meeting.
If everyone agreed and only he opposed, even if he could suppress all the voices of opposition, his prestige would be greatly damaged and it would not be good for the harmony of the sect.
Just as Lin Xuan was thinking of a solution, Maki Cangsheng suddenly stood up.
Maki Cangsheng's eyes were bright. He cupped his hands and said, "Sect Master, I have a different opinion."
"Oh? Let's hear it. "Lin Xuan nodded.
Maki Cangsheng said, "Forgive me for saying this, but the Divine Lotus Sect's Twelve Sects' system was not a successful system. If our Divine Lotus Sect wants to survive for ten thousand years, we need to take a more appropriate path."
"Bastard!"
Elder Yuan, who spoke earlier, was furious. He stood up and pointed at Maki Cangsheng and scolded angrily, "Yellow-mouthed brat, how dare you question our Divine Lotus Sect's ancestor! How dare you!"
Lin Xuan frowned slightly and said, "Elder Yuan, please calm down! Since Maki Cangsheng dares to say this, he must have his own opinion. Why don't we listen? "
Elder Yuan's expression changed. He sat down in a huff and said, "This subordinate was rash! This subordinate would like to hear what kind of reasoning this brat can come up with! "
