As for taking over as the sect leader in the future, that is even more nonsense.
The new sect leader of Netherworld Sect is indeed the deputy sect leader, but now there is Guwang Sect.
When there are multiple deputy sect leaders, the supreme elders need to elect a new sect leader.
The Guwang Sect is from an old family with roots in Miaohong, and Wang Daoyuan is from a subsidiary family, and his training is not the direct inheritance of the Netherworld Sect.
It is self-evident who the Supreme Elders will choose.
Moreover, Luo Jiuyou is not too old, only about seven hundred years old, and can definitely work for another hundred or two hundred years.
Luo Hongming from the Luo family is quite talented, and his ability to do things is not weak either.
It is already the middle stage of Zifu, and it is not far from the late stage of Zifu.
The possibility of forming a pill within these two hundred years is not small.
When the time comes, it will be another strong competitor.
Those people from the local branch of the Netherworld Sect were all there when the Netherworld Sect was established.
They have controlled the power of Netherworld Sect for so many years, how could they agree to the Wang family dividing their interests?
No matter how sincere the Wang family is, they will not treat the Wang family as one of their own. At most, they will treat the Wang family as dogs for the local family.
Those real locals were happy and rewarded the Wang family with some leftovers.
Wang Daoyuan thought for a moment and then replied: "Several generations of ancestors have painstakingly cultivated the foundation for hundreds of years, and there are still hundreds of thousands of ordinary tribesmen. I dare not abandon it."
Seeing that Wang Daoyuan didn't take the bait, Luo Jiuyou's face became a little ugly.
However, since the Wang family has the Shenbing Pavilion as its backer, the Netherworld Sect does not dare to use force and can only resort to small tricks.
He sighed and said: "Since you are reluctant to part with your ancestral inheritance, then become the supreme elder of the sect.
The Wang family is located on the edge of the Tianzhan Mountains, and is often infested by monsters.
Now in the north of the mountain, the demon clan and half-demon are also making a big fuss, and they need a strong person to guard them.
The other Jindan monks in the sect have to guard against the Can Yang Palace and Wan Ling Sect, and they can't send any manpower.
It just so happens that you have formed a pill now, and the movement of forming pills is so great, so your strength is definitely not weak.
I have decided to hand over the central and northern parts of Qingli County, as well as Jinyan City and Guiyanfang City in the north of the mountain, to your management.
From now on, you will recommend the governors of these places.
I don’t know, what do you think?”
Luo Jiuyou's meaning is also very obvious. If the Wang family is not willing to integrate into the local family, then there is no way to enter the decision-making level.
From now on, the Wang family's status in the Netherworld Sect is equivalent to that of feudal princes, with their own sphere of influence and great autonomy.
But this status is not given for free, there is a price to pay.
The central and northern parts of Qingli County face the Tianzhan Mountains.
Jinyan City and Guiyanfang City must guard against Shanbei.
The Wang family wants to defend the Netherworld Sect from these two enemies. If they can resist it, the Wang family will become one of the princes.
If you can't stop it, the Wang family will become cannon fodder.
Of course, the Netherworld Sect did not give up these places by handing them over to the Wang family.
Even if you are a prince, you have to listen to the orders from above.
Wang Daoyuan has the right to manage, but the territory still belongs to the Netherworld Sect, but the sect does not have direct jurisdiction and does not interfere in general affairs.
The Netherworld Sect's properties in these places naturally belong to the sect.
The business with the demon clan and half-demon in Guiyanfang City still needs to be continued.
If the Netherworld Sect issues a recruitment order, the families within the Wang family's territory will still have to apply.
Although the Netherworld Sect lost part of its power, its business was not affected.
There is no need to personally dispatch manpower to guard these places.
The saved manpower can be used to develop other industries.
These old guys from the Netherworld Sect are really good at calculating accounts.
I am not willing to throw away the business road of Guiyanfang City, but I am not willing to throw away the southern part of Qingli County.
The southern part of Qingli County is close to the important commercial road of Wanchuan River, and Wanchuanfang City is also located there.
The annual income of this one market alone exceeds that of the four markets that the Wang family will take over.
Moreover, across the Wanchuan River in the southern part of Qingli County is the territory of the Wanling Sect.
The Netherworld Sect was also afraid that the Wang family would collude with the Wanling Sect and would never dare to hand over this treasure land to the Wang family.
All in all, the Netherworld Sect lost a little authority and solved the threat of the Wang family to the local clan.
At the same time, some benefits were obtained.
For the Wang family, they need to pay a huge price in exchange for autonomy.
What the Wang family lacks most is autonomy, and they have had a surplus of resources for several years.
Ever since Wang Daoyuan opened the Zi Mansion, the Wang family has not dared to expand their business.
Now that the Netherworld Sect has relaxed its restrictions, the Wang family can just let their hands and feet go free.
If you want more power, it's not very possible.
However, Wang Daoyuan still has to fight for it.
He cupped his hands to Luo Jiuyou and said, "I am willing to take on this responsibility, but I still have some small requirements."
Seeing that Wang Daoyuan agreed to the second proposal, Luo Jiuyou breathed a sigh of relief.
In any case, the Wang family will not be able to threaten the interests of the Netherworld Sect's local branch in the short term.
He nodded and said, "If you have any suggestions, just say them.
If it's a small matter, I can agree to it now.
If it's a big matter, I need to go back and discuss it with the other Supreme Elders."
Wang Daoyuan smiled and said: "I have two requests: First, the Wang family has developed the Tianzhan Mountains in recent years and produced a lot of resources.
The existing business cannot afford these resources, so we want to expand our business to Wanchuanfang City.
Secondly, here in the Tianzhan Mountain Range, it has been five hundred years since the last beast wave.
The interval between two beast tides generally does not exceed six hundred years.
The next beast wave could happen at any time.
The situation in Shanbei is quite turbulent now. I am currently the only one stationed in Jindan, so it is inevitable that I will be stretched thin.
Please also ask the sect leader to allow the Wang family to build flying warships so that they can deal with monsters and protect the sect’s territory.”
After hearing this, Luo Jiuyou started thinking.
Don't consider the first condition, doing business is nothing.
But the second condition put him in a bit of trouble. A group of golden elixir monks came up with this idea just to consume the strength of the Wang family.
If the Wang family is allowed to build flying warships, the losses of the Wang family will be greatly reduced.
But if you don’t agree, what should the Wang family do if they don’t accept this condition?
He thought for a long time before replying: "The first condition is not a problem, I can agree to it now.
It's just this second condition that's a little difficult to handle.
The flying warship is of great importance, and I cannot make a decision easily. I need to discuss it with other supreme elders in the sect.
What I can make the decision now is to lift all restrictions on the Wang family on the flying boat."
The so-called inability to make a decision and the need for discussion means that you can confirm that you disagree.
Regarding flying warships, Wang Daoyuan did not have high hopes.
Being able to get a promise to lift restrictions on Feizhou can be considered a big profit.
How big is the difference between a flying boat and a flying warship? The core components use the same formation.
The flying boat is made of better materials, is faster, and equipped with offensive and defensive weapons, it is not much different from the flying warship.
Just change the name and call it Battle Flying Boat.
Can the Netherworld Sect inspect the Wang family's flying boat for such a small thing?
Wang Daoyuan nodded and said: "I have no objection and am willing to accept this appointment."
Luo Jiuyou felt relieved after solving the Wang family's status problem.
He chatted some other gossip with Wang Daoyuan and then left Yuquan Peak in the clouds.
Half a month later, Netherworld Sect solemnly announced a piece of news.
The first is the adjustment of the territory under its jurisdiction and the splitting of Qingli County.
The southern part of Qingli County was merged into Heyang County, and the central and northern parts of Qingli County together with Jinyan City formed Yannan County.
The place where Jinyan City is located is the junction of Qingli County and Heyang County. It has always been under the jurisdiction of Heyang County, but is now included in the scope of Yannan County.
As soon as this news came out, the various forces under the Netherworld Sect were a little confused.
The Netherworld Sect has never set up a county guard position, and there is no unified management of each county.
Adjusting the territory of each county is not a big deal at all. Does it need to be solemnly announced?
A few days later, another big news came out.
Wang Daoyuan of the Wang family formed an elixir and became the sixth supreme elder of the Netherworld Sect.
The patriarch appointed Wang Daoyuan as Yannan Economic Envoy, with full authority over all affairs of Yannan County.
As soon as this news came out, all the families realized what was going on. They were about to break up the land and divide the clans into feudal clans.
