He Zhenghao looked at the island in front of him that he had guarded for decades, and then looked at the successor guard who stood aside and bowed and nodded, and he couldn't help but feel a surge of pride in his heart.
Once upon a time, I was like him. When someone from above came to inspect, I would feel frightened and uneasy.
I'm afraid that my boss will blame me.
But now, in just a few years, He Zhenghao has become the kind of "big shot" in his eyes.
After encouraging the junior named Zhao Changli in front of him, He Zhenghao entered the [Mountains and Rivers Stars Formation] with familiarity.
Mountains hang overhead, blocking possible prying eyes from the outside world.
The monks invited by He Zhenghao have been waiting here for a long time.
"Fellow Daoist He!"
As soon as He Zhenghao appeared on the stage, they all greeted him enthusiastically. In their eyes, if Li Fan is the God of Wealth, then He Zhenghao is the standard boy who spreads money.
After some pleasantries, a monk couldn't wait to ask: "Friend Daoist, Master Secret Envoy has deduced that the war is about to end? There is no sign at all. Today I also heard that the Immortal Alliance expressed its intention to fight to the end..."
Before this person could finish speaking, he was interrupted by everyone talking.
"Master Secret Envoy's deduction skills are so profound that he can make mistakes. If you don't believe it, why come here today?"
"Hey, Fellow Daoist He, don't worry about him. Let's talk to us in detail about our unlimited fund-raising plan this time."
…
He Zhenghao pressed down his hands, and the place fell silent for an instant.
With a smile on his face, he recounted the details to everyone.
The monks were all extremely excited when they received He Zhenghao's personal recognition.
But after all, the scale of fundraising this time is too large, and He Zhenghao alone cannot suppress the market. Some monks inevitably still have some doubts in their hearts.
At this moment, Li Fan appeared.
A ray of silver light shone from the mountains in the sky.
Li Fan was dressed in a white Taoist robe, with his feet stepping on the starlight. He seemed to be moving slowly, but in fact he arrived at the scene in an instant.
Waves of rhythmic fluctuations came from Li Fan's body.
It instantly attracted the attention of all the monks.
Since everyone present was invited by He Zhenghao, they were all wealthy and experienced people.
But facing the remaining aura on Li Fan's body at this moment, everyone was shocked.
It is as if you are facing the mysterious and infinite avenue of heaven and earth, but just a little bit, all kinds of insights appear in your mind involuntarily.
There was even a monk on the spot with a look of ecstasy, as if he had some enlightenment. Regardless of the occasion, he closed his eyes and started practicing.
"What kind of power is this? Even the Immortal Lord who transforms into a god is far from this, right?"
"Is it possible that the secret envoy has returned to his original state?"
Everyone looked at each other, unable to hide the shock in their hearts.
"I have been in seclusion for a long time, and I have made some insignificant gains, but I still can't adapt to it, so I have to restrain myself."
"It makes you laugh." Li Fan said lightly.
Everyone's hearts were shaken, their thoughts were running wild, and they didn't even dare to say anything.
Li Fan nodded slightly, waited for a moment, calmed down, and then said slowly: "In this retreat, while I have furthered my cultivation, I have also repaired my Tianji Sect's most precious treasure [Heaven and Earth Qiankun Dice]."
"This thing was originally damaged when I was tried in the martial arts hall and forced to deduce the secrets. Although repairing it is just a piece of work, I had a vague premonition in my heart that the time has not come yet, so I haven't done anything yet."
As Li Fan spoke, a crystal clear icosahedron dice appeared in his palm.
Constantly rotating, from the exquisite dice surface, you can vaguely see countless fast flashing pictures.
"Some time ago, I achieved success in my practice. I was blessed, and I knew it was time to recover."
"In this process, I really saw a glimmer of possibility for the future."
Everyone's hearts trembled, and they all cheered up and listened carefully.
"Hongxi and Ziyun, the two gods-turned-immortal kings, may return to Congyunxian City in the near future. You also know that although I am in charge of Congyunhai's government affairs now, I am just taking over temporarily because these two are not here."
Li Fan's expression did not waver at all, as if he was talking about something that had nothing to do with him.
"Once they come back, I will hand over the power due to circumstances and reasons."
"I am an ancient monk, wandering in the clouds and wild cranes. I am used to being undisciplined and do not want to be hijacked by others. Perhaps from now on, I will resign from my position as the secret envoy and escape from the Congyun Sea to visit the hinterland of the Immortal Alliance."
"After all, I have a fate with you when I join the world to take charge. I can successfully complete the task of rebuilding the fairy city, and it is indispensable for your strong support."
"Therefore, I decided to help you one more time before resigning."
Li Fan glanced at everyone: "After this incident, the fate between us will be over, and we may have nothing to do with each other anymore."
As soon as these words came out, there was an uproar in the venue.
None of the people present were stupid, although Li Fanming said on the surface that he did not want to fight for power, so he wanted to run away.
But if he really didn’t have such a plan, he could just resign from office and leave. Why would he need to engage in such a massive fund-raising campaign to win over people’s hearts?
"That's it! He wants to seize power for himself and seek our support!"
"That's right. No matter what, he is also the supreme ruler of a state. It's not so easy to just let it go."
Many monks present were suddenly enlightened.
Thinking of all the supporters who were loyal to Li Fan in the past, such as He Zhenghao, Gao Yuan and others, after his victory in the struggle, they were all reused and held key positions.
In their hearts, they felt that an opportunity had come.
"My lord, the secret envoy, there is no need to worry. We will definitely act accordingly for you!"
"Yes, although the two Immortal Lords Hong Xi and Zi Yun have good reputations, when they were in power, most of them were aloof and not fake. How could they lead fellow Taoists to make a fortune together like you do?"
"To be honest with you, I am lucky enough to participate in the secret envoy's fund-raising plans every time. Coupled with my own operation, in just a few years, my net worth has increased by more than six times compared to the beginning!"
"Although I realized it later, it has doubled!"
"Support the secret envoy!"
"Follow the Lord, make a fortune, and prove the great path!"
…
As long as one person takes the lead, the monks present will immediately respond and express their support for Li Fan.
Li Fan glanced at He Zhenghao imperceptibly. He reacted quickly and immediately took out the [deed] and directory that had been prepared from the storage ring.
Fund raising will be done on the spot.
And in such a warm atmosphere, and with Li Fan watching eagerly from the side, even some people were unwilling to do so.
At this time, I had to spend some of my own savings.
"In order to build momentum, when I appeared on the stage, I used a piece of [Humanity Stardust] and some Enlightenment Pills."
