"Afterwards, regarding the cooperation for the Winter Fire Hall's industries, the Spirit Pagoda will send someone to interface with you."Zhen Hua didn't say much. He simply nodded with a face as calm as a lake and took the stack of proposal documents.All of this was witnessed by Mu Ye.
He heard an unfamiliar term, "Winter Fire Hall."He keenly sensed that his old friend Zhen Hua's total abandonment of principles was definitely related to this so-called "Winter Fire Hall."Mu Ye immediately had a thought; he wanted to stay here with Zhen Hua and get to the bottom of it.Thus, he said, "Zhang Ting, your master won't be accompanying you back to the Spirit Pagoda."
"It has been over ten years in total since you entered the Body Sect and became my disciple.""You have even cultivated the Innate Secret Method to the Great Success stage at a record-breaking level.""There isn't much left that I, or even the entire Body Sect, can teach you.""As for the Innate Secret Method, there is no clear path to cultivate from the Great Success stage to the forbidden realm of the Flawless Golden Body. You can only grope your way and comprehend it on your own."
"You have graduated now."He spoke with passion and a myriad of emotions.Qiangu Zhangting originally wanted to respond from the bottom of his heart with deep emotion.However, before he could reply, Mu Ye had already started pestering his old friend Zhen Hua with questions about the "Winter Fire Hall."
At this moment, how could Qiangu Zhangting not see that Teacher Mu Ye's curiosity was exploding?So, he simply shut his mouth.He would let Zhen Hua tell Teacher Mu Ye as much as he wanted.In any case, it wasn't convenient for him to talk about the yuan baoer doll.
After saying his goodbyes, he and Teacher Han Tianyi set off on the journey back to the Spirit Pagoda Headquarters.That night.At the Spirit Pagoda's internal council meeting.The Tower Master, the three Vice Tower Masters, the four Spirit Envoys, and dozens of Elders were mostly in attendance.
Qian Gu Dongfeng sat at the head of the table.He waved his hand.Behind him, a secretary stepped forward and opened the folder in her hand.She began to read: "Proposal."
"Qiangu Zhangting, a member within the Spirit Pagoda system, is to serve as the Tower Master of the Spirit Pagoda Branch in Aolai City, an eastern city on the continent.""A portion of the Spirit Pagoda's resources will be tilted towards the eastern part of the continent. At the same time, personnel with connections to the Eastern Legion will be gradually transferred to the east in the near future.""As of today, the Winter Fire Hall's industries and Divine Craftsman Zhen Hua have officially established a cooperative relationship.""..."
The secretary read out many items, most of which were related to Qiangu Zhangting.The Spirit Pagoda Council had always operated on a voting system.Tower Master Qian Gu Dongfeng had three votes and a power of veto.The three Vice Tower Masters and the four Spirit Envoys each had two votes.
The dozens of Elders each had one vote.When voting on the various proposals regarding Qiangu Zhangting, the "aye" votes passed with an overwhelming majority.Just as Qian Gu Dongfeng was about to finalize the results, one person's action drew his full attention.The First Vice Tower Master, Leng Yaozhu, had actually cast both of her votes in favor!
How rare!For decades, Leng Yaozhu had always gone against him without exception.Being stared at by Qian Gu Dongfeng, every pore of Leng Yaozhu's body screamed discomfort.Her narrow phoenix eyes glanced at Qian Gu Dongfeng as she said coldly:
"What are you looking at!""I didn't cast a favor vote because of you.""You are you, and Qiangu Zhangting is Qiangu Zhangting."Her cold tone, which disregarded the occasion, left Qian Gu Dongfeng feeling awkward and stuck.
Many who knew the relationship between Tower Master Qian Gu Dongfeng and Vice Tower Master Leng Yaozhu couldn't help but stifle their laughter.Fortunately, this wasn't the first time.Qian Gu Dongfeng quickly returned to normal and continued with the council's business.Leng Yaozhu didn't say anything more and remained silent.
Her favor vote was, of course, not because of what she had said about "viewing Qian Gu Dongfeng and Qiangu Zhangting, the grandfather and grandson duo, separately."No matter what, they were biological grandfather and grandson.They shared the dual bonds of bloodline and familial affection.There was only one reason why she voted in favor of Qiangu Zhangting.
Qiangu Zhangting himself possessed sufficient value.Not to mention his world-unrivaled talent.Just the things he had done for the Spirit Pagoda over the years all showcased his shrewdness and capability.In Leng Yaozhu's eyes, Qiangu Zhangting's shrewdness and capability far surpassed those of his grandfather, Qian Gu Dongfeng.
This was evident from how he had won over Yuan En Tiandang's family of three.Although Yuan En Tiandang's family of three were ostensibly hostages, their actual status was not low.Especially their talents, which were consistently powerful across the lineage.Within the Spirit Pagoda, more than one family wanted to establish a closer relationship with them.
The Leng family, represented by Leng Yaozhu, was one of them.After Yuan En Yehui awakened the twin super Spirits, Titan Giant Ape and Fallen Angel, she had once stated her desire to take Yuan En Yehui as her personal disciple.However, she was rejected without hesitation by the father, Yuan En Tiandang, and the mother, Ye Hui.They had rejected the apprenticeship request of a Four-Word Battle Armor Master.
They even sternly declared their stance.The person who brought their family of three to the Spirit Pagoda as hostages was Qiangu Zhangting.The only person who could grant them their freedom would also be Qiangu Zhangting.Their loyalty was akin to that towards a life-saving benefactor.
All of this gave Leng Yaozhu a sense of powerlessness, making it impossible for her to harbor thoughts of opposition.Once Qiangu Zhangting fully matured and his followers also grew, he would surely be like a hidden dragon emerging from the depths, soaring to the heavens.Leng Yaozhu had to consider the Leng family from which she came, and the future of her clan.
To follow the dragon and soar?Or to leave the stage in disappointment?And an even more important matter: her younger sister, Leng Yulai.She was the sister she cared about the most.
She had even once gone to beg Yun Ming to fall in love with her sister to accommodate her sister's extreme personality.But for some unknown reason, Leng Yulai had disappeared.For many years, there had been no news of her.She could never be found.
Now, Qiangu Zhangting gave her hope.Qiangu Zhangting could take the Spirit Pagoda to a higher level.By then, a more powerful Spirit Pagoda might be able to search for traces of Leng Yulai.In short, and to sum it up.
Leng Yaozhu, who had never yielded to Qian Gu Dongfeng in her entire life, had yielded to his grandson, Qiangu Zhangting.The proud phoenix of the Leng family bowed her haughty head before Qiangu Zhangting.
