At this moment, Li Yun was truly feeling a bit dizzy.
Asking him to be the Deputy Hall Master of the Martial Arts Hall was like asking a first-year student to be the Deputy Director of the Academic Affairs Office, wasn't it?
Isn't that ridiculous?
The key point was, he didn't have that much time.
There were still many things he needed to cultivation himself; creating the Divine Martial Eighteen Stances and the Divine Martial Art was completely incidental, not deliberate.
If he were to truly spend all his time on this, it wouldn't be a good thing; in fact, it would delay his own progress.
Thus, Li Yun thought for a moment and prepared to politely decline.
But who would have thought that the voice of Sect Leader Chen Jiuxu would suddenly drift in?
"Letting this kid be the Deputy Hall Master of the Martial Arts Hall, I think it's feasible... Chen Bairong, your suggestion is very good. This suggestion will not bury this kid's talent."
Along with the voice, it sounded.
Chen Jiuxu's figure also appeared in the Martial Arts Hall.
Gu Xiaoxian and Chen Bairong quickly went forward to greet him.
"Sect Leader!"
"Sect Leader!"
Li Yun was speechless, but he also stepped forward and respectfully bowed to Chen Jiuxu.
"Sect Leader, why are you also joining in the fun?"
"This disciple is merely an Outer Sect Disciple. How can I be the Deputy Hall Master of the Martial Arts Hall? This is a joke. If word gets out, people might think that our Heavenly Martial Sect has no capable individuals."
Chen Jiuxu glared.
"What joining in the fun?"
"I think it's you, kid, who doesn't want to take responsibility... Let me tell you, I rushed back this time because I have good news to tell you."
"But I see you, kid, are so lazy, as a disciple of the Heavenly Martial Sect, you don't want to take on the responsibility of revitalizing the Heavenly Martial Sect, so perhaps I shouldn't tell you this good news..."
Damn!
This was clearly a threat!
The dignified Sect Leader of the Heavenly Martial Sect, a Celestial Supreme, actually threatening an Outer Sect Disciple who wasn't even Innate. This was truly shameless.
But what could Li Yun do?
Who made Chen Jiuxu the Sect Leader, and he still hoped to rely on the Heavenly Martial Sect, this big tree, to protect him and cultivation peacefully?
"Sect Leader... you... this... this, alright, I'll be this Deputy Hall Master."
"However, I can't stay in the Martial Arts Hall all the time. For the sake of my own Martial Dao, you can't use the Martial Arts Hall to restrain me..."
"Don't worry about that. I still understand your situation, kid."
"Everything is centered around your own cultivation. Whatever cultivation methods you can create will be entirely up to your own will... In addition, from now on, any resources that are beneficial to your cultivation, feel free to mention them to Chen Bairong."
"The Martial Arts Hall will help you get them. If we can't get them, I will also find a way for you to get them."
Li Yun's eyes immediately lit up upon hearing this.
Having resource assistance, and unlimited, this was finally a great thing. Being the Deputy Hall Master of the Martial Arts Hall wasn't in vain.
"Alright, then this disciple will first thank the Sect Leader and Chen Lao... But Sect Leader, can you tell me now? What good news is there that made you rush back so quickly?"
Chen Jiuxu glared at Li Yun. This kid was sly, only acting when there was profit, like a merchant, it was truly embarrassing.
He said in an annoyed tone, "Come with me!"
Chen Jiuxu turned and walked into a room in the Martial Arts Hall. Li Yun glanced at Chen and Gu, and seeing that neither of them intended to follow, he smiled and walked in himself.
"Kid, let me tell you something, I met Pei Tianming after you guys returned."
"Who? Pei Tianming? Isn't that the Branch Hall Master of the Heavens Mandate Sect on Green Peak Mountain... Sect Leader, did you infiltrate the Crypt?"
"Don't worry, I didn't touch the Water Pool you mentioned. Since I know that the Heavens Mandate Sect indeed has such a Crypt on Green Peak Mountain, I have plenty of ways to force that Pei Tianming to meet with me."
"I not only met Pei Tianming, but also met that mysterious Sect Leader of the Heavens Mandate Sect through Pei Tianming."
Li Yun was stunned for a moment and couldn't help but give Chen Jiuxu a thumbs-up.
A master is a master.
Having strength is different. You don't need many calculations to do what you want. You can directly march straight in and strike at the heart of the enemy, forcing the opposing big shot to meet. It's a proper open scheme.
When can I reach this level?
I'm truly envious.
At the same time, Li Yun was also curious.
"Sect Leader, what does the Sect Leader of the Heavens Mandate Sect look like, how strong is he, and what did you talk about?"
Chen Jiuxu's expression became serious.
"You don't need to worry about what we talked about. I can only tell you that the Sect Leader of the Heavens Mandate Sect is indeed very strong, likely having reached the second realm of the Reaching Heaven Nine Realms."
"In a head-on confrontation, there is probably no opponent in the entire Mystic Moon Kingdom."
"My choice to go straight to the heart of the enemy and meet him this time was also a risk. Fortunately, I returned safely and even received a rather unexpected piece of news, and incidentally reached a cooperation agreement with the Heavens Mandate Sect."
"What agreement?"
"I can't tell you the details of the agreement for now. This matter is a bit big, and the more people who know, the greater the risk of leakage. But I can tell you that in this cooperation agreement, you are the protagonist!"
"Once completed, it will be of great benefit to you, to me, to the Heavenly Martial Sect, and to the Heavens Mandate Sect... It can be said to be a multi-party win-win."
"Why?"
Li Yun was a little shocked.
The Heavens Mandate Sect has been ordered to come to the Eastern Cloud Continent for a full thirty years. If they really wanted to cooperate, why would they wait until today?
Now, however, they chose to cooperate because Chen Jiuxu took the initiative to approach them.
There must be some mystery in this.
Chen Jiuxu shook his head and chuckled, "This is a long story and shouldn't be revealed. I can only say that the Heavenly Martial Sect being able to cooperate with the Heavens Mandate Sect this time is also thanks to you, because you are the only one who has successfully cultivated the Reversing Fate Art."
Damn!
So the key point was here?
That's what I said, not actively cooperating for thirty years, the Heavens Mandate Sect clearly looked down on the Four Great Sects of the Eastern Cloud Continent. Now, however, they chose to cooperate because Chen Jiuxu took the initiative to approach them, so there must be something fishy.
The root cause was the Reversing Fate Art.
With this, many things can be explained.
The Heavens Mandate Sect came to the Eastern Cloud Continent, but did not actively provoke trouble with the Four Great Sects, nor did they show any signs of wanting to drive the Four Great Sects out of the Eastern Cloud Continent.
However, they deliberately threw out a copy of the Reversing Fate Art which harmed countless people.
Thinking back now, the reason is very clear. The Heavens Mandate Sect was searching for someone who could fully cultivation the Reversing Fate Art to be the core of their plan.
But they should have failed.
So when Chen Jiuxu approached them, using him as a bargaining chip, he finally dealt with the Heavens Mandate Sect!
One can only say this was an unexpected turn of events.
It was just that he had unintentionally become a bargaining chip in the game between the Heavenly Martial Sect and the Heavens Mandate Sect, which made him feel a little uncomfortable.
However, thinking about it, this kind of thing was actually normal.
The world bustles for profit, and the world rushes for profit.
Being able to be used as a bargaining chip by two major forces can also be considered a reflection of his value. Among the more than 200,000 people in the Heavenly Martial Sect, others who wanted to be this bargaining chip probably wouldn't even have the qualification.
The key now is that he must quickly improve his strength further, and then seize this opportunity to gain greater benefits in this multi-party win-win situation.
