"Yinggou?"
"Full Nature Sect Leader?"
Zhang Wang frowned and lowered his head to think for a moment. Then, he saw the expression on his senior brother's face and asked suspiciously,
"Senior Brother, since the Full Nature Sect Leader is here, why didn't you make him stay?"
"It might be pardonable for Shi Mo to run away. After all, the methods that kid used were indeed very tricky. The slightest carelessness would have completely ruined the future of these children."
"But, this so-called new Full Nature Sect Leader …"
"Junior Brother, do you think that I don't know what to do for the Tang Sect, or do you suspect that I want to harm the Tang Sect?" Tang Miaoxing immediately interrupted.
Hearing this,
Seeing Tang Miaoxing's gloomy expression at this time, although Zhang Wang was not afraid, he still calmed down and shook his head.
"You will harm the Tang Sect? No, I've never thought of that. I'm afraid that you will be blinded by the current situation! "
"… Hmph, you have always been so frank. No matter when, you are willing to tell me your thoughts." Tang Miaoxing put away the expression on his face and slowly said with a smile,
"But …"
"There's nothing to hide about this. Even if the juniors and outsiders from the company are present, I can give you a completely reasonable explanation …"
As soon as he finished speaking …
Zhang Chulan and the other young people who were paying attention to Yinggou and the Full Nature Sect Leader also turned their heads to look at the two old men again.
They were obviously very curious about what had just happened. However, due to their identities, they did not dare to act too overboard, let alone get involved in the Tang Sect's' family affairs' on the surface.
At this moment, seeing Tang Miaoxing's indifferent expression, although Zhang Wang could not help but bulge the veins on his forehead, in the end, he did not show too much in front of the outsiders.
"You said …"
"I can't do anything to him," Tang Miaoxing said calmly.
"What did you say?"
"What I mean is …" Tang Miaoxing shook his head helplessly and said,
"This new Full Nature Sect Leader's methods are very clever. At that time, it was impossible for me to keep him and Xia Liuqing together. In terms of methods … I am far inferior to him."
"Besides, from the beginning to the end, he did not show any hostility to the Tang Sect. When we fought, he only passively took all my methods …"
"And because of that …"
"In the face of this power that the Tang Sect may not be able to withstand, as the current sect master of the Tang Sect, I naturally have to do my best to avoid a direct confrontation. Once we cross this person's bottom line, our situation will become even more difficult in the future."
"Bullsh * t!" Zhang Wang patiently listened to Tang Miaoxing's explanation, and the veins on his forehead bulged even more.
"Tang Miaoxing! You're the current sect leader of the Tang Sect! Other than that person, there was no one else! He's the most skilled disciple of the Tang Sect! "
"You actually said that you're inferior to him in terms of means … Bullshit!"
"Yinggou? I've never even heard of this name before. He's just a random nobody who pops up and can make the head of the Tang Sect feel inferior … Do you think I'll believe such stupid words?!"
"It's up to you to believe it or not …" Facing the emotional Zhang Wang, Tang Miaoxing couldn't help but pick his ears helplessly.
"After all, I've already asked Xia Liuqing and the others to stay behind. And judging from the other party's attitude, they'll come back sooner or later. When that time comes … you'll have a chance to go up and try it yourself."
After saying that, Tang Miaoxing immediately turned to Zhang Chulan and the others without caring about how Zhang Wang would view him.
"Alright, no matter what, I owe you a favor this time. As for the rest … they're our own family matters."
"It's getting late. I'll arrange a place for you to stay. Tomorrow … you'll leave with that Wang Zhenqiu."
Subsequently …
Tang Miaoxing only left behind a tenacious and upright figure for everyone to see.
…
Somewhere in the forest.
"Huff … Huff … Huff …"
Lu Liang bent over and supported his knees with his hands, panting as he looked at the two people in front of him.
"Brother Tu, Brother Liu, I think this is enough. We've already run out of the range of the Tang Sect's back mountain …"
"You're tired already?" Tu Junfang and Liu Xiaojiang stood together. Looking at the exhausted Lu Liang, they couldn't help but smile and remind him, "We're all Qi practitioners.
"We are all people who train our Qi. Although the amount of Qi is linked to our physical strength, and we can't rush it, we can only move forward slowly and steadily. But this physique … isn't it also the key to determining how far you can go?"
"Kid, you're not working hard enough …"
"I can't compare, I can't compare …" Lu Liang panted and straightened his body, saying,
"After all, the two of you are used to the postnatal cultivation method. I've only started cultivating for a few days …"
"Besides, it's not easy to change the bad habits left behind. It takes some time to slowly get used to new things …"
At this point, he turned to look at the silent Liu Xiaojiang and asked,
"Brother Liu, it's fine now. Can you tell us what happened just now?"
Hearing this …
Tu Junfang also looked at Liu Xiaojiang with interest. Obviously, he was also curious about Tang Miaoxing's contradictory behavior. He wanted to know why the other party chose to stop.
"For the Tang Sect." Liu Xiaojiang looked up at the bright moon hanging high in the sky and said something that confused Tu Junfang and Lu Liang.
"???" Lu Liang.
"For the Tang Sect? Why are you suddenly talking about this?" Tu Junfang was puzzled.
Liu Xiaojiang slowly withdrew his gaze from admiring the moonlight. He looked at the two puzzled people in front of him and said,
"Oh, if it's not for this reason, then what do you think Tang Miaoxing … No, this old sect leader of the Tang Sect is thinking?"
"The Rebellion of Jia Shen … or the so-called Eight Strange Skills?"
"If they really care about these things, why didn't the Tang Sect take advantage of this' advantage 'in the end to seize the opportunity to snatch the Eight Strange Skills? Why did they express their attitude first and most clearly?"
"…" Lu Liang and Tu Junfang.
"The Tang Sect doesn't care about the Eight Strange Skills. At least back then … they didn't care," Liu Xiaojiang said.
"Looking at Tang Miaoxing now, the Tang Sect doesn't seem to be any different from back then. Although they have helplessly declined with the times … they are still proud."
"But …" Lu Liang was a little doubtful. "Brother Liu, why do I remember that one of the people who pursued Zhang Huaiyi back then was the sect leader of the Tang Sect?"
"Yang Lie …" Liu Xiaojiang pondered for a moment when he heard this. Then, he said, "It's easy to understand.
Naturally, for some reason, Yang Lie was also interested in the source of the Qi at that time. For example, the secret of the gradual disappearance of the Pill Devour, or the gradual decline of the Tang Sect over time … "
"If we follow this line of thought, it's not difficult to infer the reason why Yang Lie pursued the source of the Qi. This is either to satisfy his own selfish desires, or it's the same as Tang Miaoxing just now …"
"They both did it for the Tang Sect, but in the end, they chose different paths …"
"Yang Lie wanted to use the source of the Qi to make the Tang Sect flourish again?" Tu Junfang stroked his chin and said.
"If that's the case, it explains why the Tang Sect suddenly began to investigate the Eight Strange Skills more than a decade ago …"
"Although it's just a guess, it's very likely." Liu Xiaojiang looked at Tu Junfang.
"Tang Miaoxing and Yang Lie's attitudes towards the Tang Sect are very similar. They both seem to be thinking about how to make the Tang Sect flourish again, but he chose a path that is more gentle to others and the world."
"But …"
At this point, he looked at the path they had taken and his eyes flashed.
"This path may not be much to others and the world, or even to others in the Tang Sect, but to Tang Miaoxing himself … it's ruthless enough."
Before he personally came to the Tang Sect,
Liu Xiaojiang had learned about the company's records on the Tang Sect through Er Zhuang and Zhao Fangxu's channels.
After he personally came to the Tang Sect,
Liu Xiaojiang hid in the dark and fully observed the current Tang Sect. He noticed that the Tang Sect was no longer in decline.
Tang Miaoxing..
Liu Xiaojiang still didn't know much about him. He only knew that the other party was indeed decisive and smart. He was a qualified sect leader who was recognized by everyone around him.
Therefore, for such a selfless sect leader, there was naturally no need to think about his personal thoughts.
Today, the Tang Sect was gradually declining..,
As the sect leader of the Tang Sect, the thing that Tang Miaoxing wanted to do the most was nothing more than to revitalize the sect and let the Tang Sect continue to exist for a long time.
What was the foundation of the sect's prosperity?
Naturally, it was the means to let the disciples of the sect have a foothold in the circle!
In other words, it was the inheritance!
The current Tang Sect seemed to still have many powerful assassination methods. Even if it declined, it would not be at the bottom of the major sects. However, it lacked the inheritance that could let it rise to the top of the sects!
Once upon a time..,
The Tang Sect's assassination methods were indeed powerful, but what made them afraid of the world was not those seemingly powerful but actually not brilliant and unsolvable martial arts. Instead, it was the supreme skill that everyone recognized as unsolvable — the Tang Sect's Pill Devouring!
It was precisely because of the Pill Devouring that the Tang Sect was once so infamous.
It was precisely because of the recognized top inheritance that the Tang Sect was able to survive in this world for so long.
The gradual decline of the Tang Sect was partly due to the stability of the world, but more importantly … It was obviously because of the gradual loss of the Pill Devouring!
Therefore..,
Liu Xiaojiang understood the situation of the Tang Sect in detail. After realizing that Tang Miaoxing valued the Pill Devouring, he quickly understood the general idea in the other party's head.
Facing the gradual loss of the Pill Devouring and the decline of the Tang Sect as time passed,
Tang Miaoxing and Yang Lie, who were sect leaders with different surnames, made different choices for the same reason. He chose to persist in the pride in the hearts of the Tang Sect members and chose not to rely on external objects … Instead, he wanted to use the Pill Devouring to revitalize the Tang Sect!
It was just that..
Liu Xiaojiang considered the fact that the Tang Sect was gradually declining step by step even though they had the Pill Devouring. He couldn't help but wonder if the Pill Devouring's method was also accompanied by great risks.
After all, the Tang Sect had always had the inheritance of the Pill Devouring, but now, no one other than Xu Xin knew how to use it. This might be able to explain the problem of the Pill Devouring …
If the Pill Devouring was indeed very dangerous and could even threaten the successor …
Then the idea that Tang Miaoxing insisted on today was undoubtedly a choice that was gentle to others but incomparably fierce to himself!
Moreover, no matter what he did next, no matter whether he succeeded in the end or not,
The fact that Tang Miaoxing used Quan Xing and the company's outsiders to plot against his own people could not be changed. Even if he succeeded in the end, even if it was the best situation, logically speaking … he would probably not be able to sit in the position of sect leader.
The pride of the Tang Sect …
"Tsk tsk tsk …"
After listening to Liu Xiaojiang's answer, Lu Liang couldn't help but look in the direction of the Tang Sect with admiration.
"Mr. Tang, he's really a big shot with both persistence and means …"
"If this matter goes smoothly …" Tu Junfang looked at the slightly frivolous Lu Liang and couldn't help but shake his head.
"Perhaps the Tang Sect really will rise again …"
"You can say that it's both good and bad." Liu Xiaojiang didn't care about Lu Liang's attitude, nor was he arrogant enough to judge whether this matter was right or wrong. He only gave a relatively objective evaluation of what might happen in the future.
"Then … what do we do next?" Tu Junfang asked.
"No, of course we can't wait." Liu Xiaojiang immediately shook his head.
"This time, with just Elder Tang alone, Zhang Chulan and the others, and even with Old Xia and the others, it will be very difficult to achieve our initial goal."
"Therefore, after the matter is settled, if we don't want to make a big deal out of it before we successfully meet Xu Xin … there really isn't any better choice."
"Since Sect Leader Tang's plan requires the use of the All-Encompassing Demons, and it won't affect our initial goal, why can't we do Elder Tang a favor?"
"… I say, Sect Leader, you just joined and might not understand the situation. Even if the Tang Sect remembers this favor, they probably won't be merciful when it comes to dealing with us. Who told us to be the villains in the circle?" Tu Junfang helplessly said.
"When have you ever considered others when doing things with the All-Encompassing Demons?" Liu Xiaojiang took off his mask and smiled at Lu Liang and Tu Junfang.
"I admire Elder Tang's persistence, which is why I'm willing to do him a favor. As for the Tang Sect … I won't change my original goal, nor will I give up on what I want to do."
"Furthermore …"
"If this matter develops into the outcome that I've predicted, the Tang Sect may very well fall into my hands and completely lose any chance of rising again in the future."
"At that time …"
"You can also treat this favor as a kind of compensation for the Tang Sect … do you understand now?"
"!!!" Lu Liang.
"…" Tu Junfang.
