110: The conspiracy can be broken, but the conspiracy cannot be solved.
Seven or eight days later.
Midnight, Xuanjian Sect.
The senior elders gathered together, and the atmosphere was slightly solemn.
Not long after, accompanied by a strong smell of medicine, a middle-aged man appeared in the empty front seat.
The man is handsome and elegant, with a certain air of dignity, but his face is a little pale and he seems to be out of breath.
"See the Sect Master."
When the elders saw this man, they quickly stood up and saluted.
"Everyone, please sit down."
Yang Qi looked around and frowned: "Looking at how worried you are, what big thing happened in the sect? Has the Yin Sha Sect declared war on us?"
When he fought against the cold jade dragon, he was seriously injured and had to retreat.
At that time, he had given instructions that if there were any important matters within the sect during the period, the elders would discuss and resolve them, and do not call him out unless absolutely necessary.
Now that he was forced to leave seclusion, the only possibility Yang Qi could think of was for the Yinsha Sect to declare war.
Several elders looked at each other and smiled bitterly.
The elder said: "Sect Master, this is not the key, the main reason is..."
Next, he gave an overview of what happened during this period.
"I see……"
After Yang Qi heard this, he was silent for a long time, and suddenly sighed in sadness: "You have been fooled. You should not have agreed to Zhenfu Si in the first place."
"We didn't expect it either."
An elder regretted his mistake and smiled bitterly: "The conditions proposed by the Zhenfu Division were very good. We disciples were only allowed to go to the Zhenfu Division to make a name for themselves."
"The Suppression Division will send experienced warriors to give guidance to our disciples, and we can also earn contributions by slaying demons in exchange for training resources."
"We thought at the time that Zuo Chongming's move might be to use the power of the sect's disciples to eliminate demons in Ping'an County."
"But it's not bad for us, because it's equivalent to using the court's resources to train our disciples. No matter how you calculate it, you'll make money."
Another elder said: "They only have one condition, and that is that disciples who go to Zhenfusi must wear Zhenfusi uniforms when going out."
"Compared to the benefits we can get, their conditions are simply insignificant, so we didn't think about it carefully at the time..."
"Haha, insignificant?"
Yang Qi sighed: "If it goes as expected, there should be very few chivalrous and righteous incidents in Ping'an County now. When people mention monsters, they first think of the Zhenfu Division."
"This has weakened the reputation of our two sects. From then on, everyone's trust in Zhenfu Division has become stronger and stronger, but for us..."
He looked at the elders: "The most important thing is that the Zhenfu Division is backed by the imperial court, so why does it have no training resources? How can our sect compare?"
"As the saying goes, good birds choose trees to roost. As long as you work hard and make contributions in the Zhenfu Division, you can even change to high-level, top-level, or even unique martial arts. What about us?"
"The core inheritance of our Xuanjian Sect is nothing more than a few advanced martial arts books, and if you want to learn these, you must go through many tests."
After some comparison, we can draw a conclusion.
Everyone was silent for a moment, and someone said: "But...how can a warrior who is tempted by profit have any loyalty?"
"Does the Zhenfu Division need loyalty?"
Yang Qi sneered and asked: "They only need you to do things. As long as you do things, you can get paid. What's the point of being loyal or not?"
Everyone stopped talking, and they suddenly realized... Zhenfusi's move was not a conspiracy, but a serious conspiracy.
"This Zuo Chongming is amazing."
Yang Qi sighed: "Fortunately, the imperial court has not promoted this method, otherwise it would take up to a hundred years to dismantle sects and disperse aristocratic families without any bloodshed."
The elder couldn't help but say: "Sect Master, what should we do?"
"no way."
Yang Qi shook his head helplessly: "As the old saying goes, conspiracies can be broken, and evil schemes cannot be solved. In the current situation, it is too late."
Conspiracies can be guarded against, but evil schemes cannot be resisted.
Unless the Yang conspiracy is cut off at the source before it takes hold, we will end up in the current situation.
The woman with a cold temperament who had never spoken a word said in a deep voice: "There must be something to do."
Yang Qi smiled bitterly and said: "The only thing we can do is to improve the welfare of the disciples and reduce the requirements for exchange for elixirs, exercises, martial arts, etc."
"But this is just drinking poison to quench thirst and lead to slow death. Because our background is too shallow, we will never be able to compete with the imperial court behind Zhenfusi."
Having said this, he frowned: "But having said that, the Yin Sha Sect is definitely suffering more than us at this time."
Because the two cases have different operating modes.
The Xuanjian Sect relies on the relationship between master and disciple, while the Yinsha Sect is for those who are capable. The competition is more intense, and the loyalty of the disciples to the sect is... not high.
The woman said: "Now the demon-suppressing envoy of Ping'an County Zhenfusi has some friendship with Ji Xuanxuan. I want to use it to build a bridge and at least try my best."
Yang Qi's face changed slightly and he said seriously: "Elder Bian, this sect knows that you are straight-tempered, but you must not do anything stupid."
Elder Wang said angrily: "Sect Master, Zuo Chongming is in the first grade of junior high school, why can't we be in the fifteenth grade?"
“Zuo Chongming has the imperial court behind him, what’s behind us?”
Yang Qi looked at him: "If you kill one Zuo Chongming, the court can send another one, but the consequences of killing him...can Xuanjian Sect afford it?"
"..."
Everyone was silent.
——
——
Ziyun Garden.
Zuo Chongming hugged Qing Guan and listened quietly to Gao Yu's complaints.
Yes, complain.
Not long ago, when Zuo Chongming promoted this plan, Gao Yu was the first to bear the brunt.
Now Zuo Chongming's move of taking money from the bottom of the cauldron has made Gao Yu directly sabi. His reputation in the Yinsha Sect is now notorious, especially among the higher-ups.
Elder Wang, who had tried his best to bring him and Wang Susu together, even pointed at him and scolded him, telling him to get away as far as he could.
The father-in-law was like this, so naturally his marriage to Wang Susu fell through completely.
"I have a way to break the situation."
Zuo Chongming glanced at him and said with a smile: "Don't look at them scolding you now, in the future they will want to kneel down and beg you. Do you believe it?"
"You fart."
Gao Yu's face turned red after drinking: "I was able to win over Wang Susu, become the great elder, plot to become the leader of the clan, and reach the pinnacle of life, but now it's all over."
"If you don't believe it, I will pull you down."
Zuo Chongming didn't force anything, he lowered his head to tease the shy girl, causing her to be annoyed.
Although Gao Yu shouted that he didn't believe it, he really wanted to hear it in his heart.
His ears were perked up at first, but the other party was silent for a long time.
As soon as he raised his eyes and saw Zuo Chongming's behavior, Gao Yu suddenly became very angry: "Tell me, tell me."
Zuo Chongming stared at the empty wine cup on the table: "Well...you have to have a begging attitude when asking for help."
"..."
The corner of Gao Yu's mouth twitched, he lowered his head helplessly, and poured wine for him diligently: "Brother, you are my brother, please save my brother."
Bliss~!
Zuo Chongming picked up the wine with satisfaction and whispered softly: "Since the Yinsha Sect doesn't want to see you, then you can join my Zhenfu Division."
"Clam?"
Gao Yu's eyes widened, and he collapsed on the ground, looking at him in shock.

From December 28th to January 3rd, I can barely guarantee two chapters a day.
