When Qian Tong returned to his Jianfeng Peak, the first thing he did was to recruit his confidants. He arranged for his beloved young disciple to find the Seventh Elder, and prepared to explain to the Seventh Elder why he left the Holy City and fled back alone.
.
At the same time, he ordered someone to send a greeting card to the fifth elder, hoping to meet the fifth elder.
He was originally a lecturer in the lineage of the Great Elder, otherwise he would not have been taken to another world by the Third Elder to participate in the battle against the Elanthir Empire.
Qian Tong knew that bribery should be done sooner rather than later, so he began to arrange his money offensive as soon as he returned.
Less than two hours after Qian Tong returned, the sect leader of the Tianjian Shen Sect held a meeting. All the elders of the sect hurried to the sect's main hall to the melodious sound of bells.
The leader of Shenzong sat at the head of the table, looking at the white smoke rising in front of him, smelling the precious spices coming out of the incense burner, and said in a long voice: "The obituary of the third elder has been sent out. At that time, everyone's thoughts were,
A way to motivate everyone in the sect and make everyone work harder to serve the sect."
When he spoke, he looked at the empty seats of the two elders, and couldn't help but feel a little sad in his heart: "Now we have to think carefully about the matter of the seventh elder. Anyway, not many people know about this matter. If you want to
Keeping it secret can still be done.”
"As long as Cambridge is closed, the other party will not be able to come to our world, so we can hide it, and the other party will not be able to make a fuss about the death of the seventh elder." The fourth elder said.
The fifth elder didn't want to speak at first, because the more he spoke now, the more passive he became. However, he could not open his mouth on such an issue involving core interests, so he could only bite the bullet and said: "But, we can't
You have been hiding this matter all this time. Do you want the position of the Seventh Elder to remain vacant?"
"Let it be empty if it's empty, otherwise what can we do? Do we need to organize a sect competition at this time? Choose a suitable person to be the elder?" The eighth elder continued with a smile.
He also knew the news of the death of the third elder and the seventh elder, so he was very tough when he spoke. Anyway, their lineage has gained power, and there is no problem at all if he is a little more arrogant now.
The sixth elder was even more ruthless. He was already planning to find a henchman to occupy the positions of the two fallen elders. He was not in a hurry and suggested: "I definitely can't choose, but it's not impossible to promote one. Anyway, it's vacant."
If one of them is vacant, it would be better to promote one to take over the affairs of the seventh elder temporarily."
The fifth elder glanced at the ninth elder, gritted his teeth, and continued to insist: "What you said makes sense, but if you promote one person, wouldn't keeping secrets become child's play? By then, everyone will not understand what is going on.
?”
"Then let's leave the position of the Seventh Elder vacant for the time being! There is no other way. We can hide it for a while. The loss of two elders in a row will hurt morale too much." For the sake of balance, the leader of the Shenzong stood this time.
On the side of the fifth elder.
He didn't want to see the second elder's lineage becoming the dominant one. In this case, wouldn't he, the sect leader, be sidelined by the second elder?
Only when the two veins are balanced can he, the sect leader, mediate and truly control the overall situation! This is his way of controlling people, or his secret.
"One more thing, that Qian Tong who came back from the front line... is a ruthless character. He was able to fight all the way back from the Holy City and brought back some supplies. It is a meritorious service in any case." The fifth elder spoke and suddenly mentioned
Got Qiantong.
The spiritual stones that Qian Tong brought back had some effect. At least after using them to bribe the fifth elder, the fifth elder still said some good words for him.
Of course, when the Fifth Elder said this at this time, he also wanted to characterize Qian Tong's escape back as a breakout, not an escape!
"With merit? I think he may have left his post without authorization and took the lead in escaping, right?" The sixth elder glanced at the fourth elder, but finally couldn't hold it back and said sarcastically.
He looked at the fourth elder because on the way here, the fourth elder told him not to be too anxious and not to attack the fifth elder aggressively.
This is political wisdom, but the Sixth Elder is very skilled in cultivation, but he doesn't understand this kind of twists and turns. So he couldn't hold back, grabbed Qian Tong and was ready to beat the drowned dog.
Without waiting for the sect leader to come forward, the fourth elder spoke up and smoothed things over: "I don't think he looks like it... He said that the seventh elder was the first to break out, and he followed the order to break out... How dare he talk about this kind of thing casually?"
When the fourth elder spoke, the sixth elder also realized that he might have acted too hastily, so he closed his mouth and stopped talking.
The Ninth Elder also wanted to protect his money, so he nodded and said, "That's right. If the Seventh Elder comes back first and he escapes and talks nonsense, wouldn't it be exposed immediately?"
This is Qian Tong's great wisdom. When he came back, he did not say that the seventh elder took the lead in escaping, but that the seventh elder took the lead in breaking out.
After he polished it up, the matter of the Seventh Elder leaving his post without permission was covered up. Even if the Seventh Elder came back first, he would only think that Qian Tong was a good person and would not have any hatred towards Qian Tong.
Unfortunately, Qian Tong didn't know that the Seventh Elder had already died in the battle, and his seemingly wise words did not have the best effect.
But in this matter, both the Fifth Elder and the Ninth Elder agreed with Qian Tong that the Seventh Elder's death was unknown. Qian Tong's words were tantamount to defining the nature of the Seventh Elder's death. The name of the martyr
The score always sounds better, right?
"Okay! Is the nonsense of a lecturer worth our time here?" The sect master became a little impatient. After scolding him, he said: "Qian Tong is now a second-level lecturer. He was promoted to a first-level lecturer.
Let’s take care of some of the elders’ affairs for the time being!”
When he said this, the fifth elder and the ninth elder breathed a sigh of relief. At least, after losing two elders, they had another senior lecturer on their side, which somewhat made up for their loss.
After dealing with the matter of Qian Tong who escaped, the leader of Shenzong continued: "I think the news about the Jiuyou Sect is the most troublesome! Once these guys get involved, things will become difficult."
"Yes, those disciples began to surrender on a large scale and listened to the rebellious words of the Jiuyou Sect to deceive the public! This kind of thing must be stopped!" the Eighth Elder agreed.
The sect leader had just added some strength to the great elder's lineage. The second elder's lineage, which had already gained the advantage, looked ugly. The sixth elder was silent and the fourth elder was thinking about other things, so only the eighth elder gave such a compliment.
