If the Wuji Sect wants to develop further, it is impossible to achieve this goal by just focusing on Xinghai County. None of the monsters around the Wuji Sect, the Mu family, the Demonic Shadow Palace, and the Ten Thousand Beasts Mountains are easy to provoke.

As long as Zong attacks one party, the other party will definitely be ready to take action.

Nowadays, the establishment of the Great Zhou Dynasty is a very good opportunity for the Wuji Sect. If it is grasped, it is not impossible to soar into the sky.

Although there are many princes in the Zhou Dynasty, there are only a few who are truly capable of competing for them. After all, not every prince has a good natal family as a backing. If you want to stand out in the process of winning the heir apparent, you must first have a good background.

Either he has extraordinary abilities and is immediately appreciated by the emperor. Only in this way can ministers secretly make friends with him.

Of course, making friends with the current ministers will undoubtedly anger the current emperor, so these can only be done secretly.

"I wonder if ancestors have a candidate in mind?" Wu Huai asked. Since ancestor Mu has agreed, he must have made some decisions in his heart, otherwise he would not have made such a decision out of thin air.

After listening to Wu Huai's words, everyone turned their attention to him, wanting to know what Patriarch Mu was thinking.

Old Ancestor Mu stroked his beard and said calmly: "I was invited by the eldest prince a few days ago, and he was invited to Ziyun Pavilion for a talk. The eldest prince is now in the limelight, and it is the time when we need manpower. At this moment, we

If you go and make friends, you will definitely be able to make friends with the eldest prince."

Some of the monks on the field nodded. The monk Mu Patriarch said was not too unexpected. Among the several princes, the eldest prince indeed has the potential to become a prince.

The eldest prince's talent is not bad. Now he has the strength of the seventh level of foundation building. Among all the princes, he is also one of the best. Talent and cultivation are only one aspect. The eldest prince's mother was born in the Beiying Sect, a large sect.

, looking at the entire Great Zhou Dynasty, Beiying Sect is also a leader and very powerful.

With such a strong backing, the eldest prince has many trump cards in his hand if he wants to compete for the position of crown prince. But this time, he can outcompete most of the princes.

In addition, the eldest prince is very versatile and uses his status to gain wide acclaim in the capital. Unlike other princes, the eldest prince is very low-key and seldom does anything arrogant or domineering, nor does he act to overpower others.

From this point of view, the eldest prince is indeed a strong candidate to compete for the crown prince. Patriarch Mu still chose the safest method. Anyone with a discerning eye can see the eldest prince's advantages, so countless people have bet on him.

Even if the Wuji Sect goes to support, even if it succeeds, the credit will not be too big. Even if it really fails, with so many forces blocking the way, when it is really the Ye family's turn to accept the punishment, the losses they will suffer

It will also be reduced a lot.

"Ancestor, the eldest prince is certainly good, but the third prince is also a good choice." Elder Ling said. Although he was refuted by the Ye family before, it is undeniable that he still has a certain influence in the sect.

, after all, he has been in business for so many years and has a profound background. Elder Ling cannot be brought down with just one or two blows.

The third prince mentioned by Elder Ling is also very powerful. Although his cultivation level is a little worse than that of the eldest prince, with only the fourth level of foundation building, he cannot be underestimated.

The third prince was stationed at the border in his early years, and achieved great success in battle at a young age. When he was young, the third prince followed the general to guard the border and repel enemy troops, and he had already accumulated a certain amount of prestige in the army.

In addition, the current general is the uncle of the third prince, and the power behind him cannot be underestimated. To a certain extent, it is no less than that of the Beiying Sect. The only disadvantage is that he does not have good relations with the officials in the court.

Very good, even if something happened, officials in the capital rarely spoke for the third prince.

Although the third prince is slightly inferior to the eldest prince in terms of competitive advantage, it should not be underestimated. Generally speaking, there is still a certain chance.

"I think the third prince is not bad. After all, he has the army as his backing."

"I think so too. Although the sect is large, it is not completely suppressed by the royal family. If the eldest prince ascends to power, it will be difficult to control it in the future."

With Wu Huai's opening words, the monks in the hall immediately began to whisper and exchange their thoughts enthusiastically.

Old Ancestor Mu was sitting at the top, just listening silently, and did not speak immediately, obviously he was thinking intensely in his heart.

"Since the eldest prince has invited me, my ancestors might as well go and give it a try. Then I can get to know the eldest prince up close and try out his qualities." Hall Master Lin opened his mouth and directly provided an offer to ancestor Mu.

direction.

Indeed, even a thousand words and ten thousand words are not as reliable as meeting him in person. If the eldest prince is actually not as powerful as the rumors say, then there is no need for the Wuji Sect to take sides immediately.

"It's exactly what I want. Who the sect supports needs to be carefully considered. I went to Ziyun Pavilion with some intention of taking the exam." Old Ancestor Mu smiled slightly and said his plan.

If nothing else goes wrong, the sect should be deciding between these two princes. Before that, Patriarch Mu must go and find out first.

"In a few days, it will be the date of Ziyun Pavilion's invitation. Wu Huai, Tiancheng, you guys will come with me." Old Ancestor Mu immediately announced. Then, without giving others a chance to explain, he declared the meeting to be dismissed.

.

Only a confused Wu Huai and everyone were left whispering, wondering what kind of medicine Patriarch Mu was selling.

But at the same time, everyone had only one thought in their minds, "The Great Elder has completely lost his power!" Otherwise, on such an important occasion as meeting the First Prince, how could it be possible not to bring a monk from the Great Elder's faction with him?

Of course, these matters have nothing to do with the Ye family for the time being. On such a major issue as the sect's side, the Ye family can only listen to the arrangements of Ancestor Mu and the others.

After returning to Ye's house, Ye Yongzhang saw that Ye Tongxuan was silent and asked: "Tongxuan, do you have any ideas?"

"Clan leader, in my opinion, neither the eldest prince nor the third prince are very good choices. If our Ye family wants to overthrow Elder Ling and get rid of the situation of looking at people's faces, we can't follow others step by step, we must walk with swords.

Pioneer!"

Ye Tongxuan also had some thoughts of his own when the emperors competed for the throne this time. Not long after the incident with Elder Ling, he had his own plans. The Ye family could not stay under others for a long time and act based on other people's faces.

!

If the Ye family wants to develop, it must go out independently. Now that the family has reached this size, the existence of the sect is no longer a help, but has become a resistance. Every year, the family pays too many spiritual stone resources to the sect.

, which seriously hindered the further development of the family.
