Chapter 420

Whether it was the Medical Department in the past or the Alchemy Saint Hall today, the real helmsmen have never changed; they have always been those few old forces.

The strongest force is naturally the nobility and aristocratic families headed by the royal family.

Whether it is Qihuang Pavilion or Jiujie Hall, the royal family and nobility have inserted many people, which can largely influence the operation of these two departments.

Next are the guardian families headed by the Xia family.

Lingjing Pavilion is almost decided by people of this line, taking the will of the guardian families as the direction of development. Other secret realm masters, even if they control secret realms, have no say.

Finally, there is the line of successors of the Alchemy Saint Hall.

This line should have been the most orthodox and legitimate guide of the Holy Land, but they don't know what they are thinking; they are unwilling to expose their identity as successors of the Holy Land and only secretly insert people into various departments, peaks, and secret realms.

They established a Jiujie Hall, and the management power and right to speak have to be split with the royal family and nobility.

Don't look at the current Alchemy Saint Hall, which has territory, resources, and many recruited disciples, but its operating mode has never changed.

The three major old forces firmly hold the rudder of the Holy Land's progress and development, not giving new forces any chance to participate.

Even if they give a chance, they only give some affairs at the execution level.

The three major old forces hold the rudder. If they could wholeheartedly plan for the development and growth of the Holy Land, that would be fine, but the problem is that they all have their own calculations. The interests of the Holy Land have to be ranked behind their private interests.

These problems, the secret realm masters and Qihuang Pavilion hall masters are not unaware of. The reason why they haven't made a fuss is: first, their background relationship networks are also more or less involved with the three major old forces; second, although they are excluded from the 'decisions on formulating the Holy Land's development direction', they are indispensable at the execution level, and they can get some benefits.

Is there no one who wants to break this old operating mode?

Of course not.

Many people have this heart but not this power.

This is the Alchemy Saint Hall, the reason why it has always been like stagnant water.

But now, the secret realm masters, Qihuang Pavilion hall masters, and some ambitious people have seen the hope of 'breaking the old operating mode'.

Xia Zhen, the most important person in Lingjing Pavilion after the Pavilion Master, has now been helped out of the meeting hall in embarrassment.

It turns out that the three major forces are not unshakable!

With Xia Zhen's departure, although the meeting hall is still quiet, everyone can feel that something is quietly changing.

Everyone's gaze is drifting toward Hua Changxi intentionally or unintentionally.

Gu Jinfan looks at Hua Changxi, and burning stars ignite in her eyes.

Hua Changxi is a variable. Her existence seems to mean some kind of change.

And change represents opportunity, vitality, and infinite possibilities.

This plays a vital role in both the development of the Holy Land and stimulating the potential of the Holy Land disciples.

At this moment, she truly recognizes the indispensability of people like Hua Changxi—what she brings is not only conflict, but also the courage to break the deadlock.

After all, even a force as deeply rooted as Xia Zhen can be shaken, who dares to say that the old order cannot be challenged?

Huo Yunxiao's expression is also excited. Hua Changxi's attendance at the meeting can be considered to have caused quite a ripple in this pool of stagnant water in the Alchemy Saint Hall.

However, this is just the beginning.

It is difficult to tear down an old house, and it is also difficult to rebuild a new building.

The collision and game between new and old forces is a long march full of dangers.

Mu Qingying, Yuan Tianchou, Yan Qianying, and others also ignited flames of eagerness in their hearts.

Regarding many things in the Holy Land, they have long been unable to look at them, but unfortunately, they considered too many things, which made them always hesitate.

And Wen Shouren's mood is much lower than others.

He looks at the calm Hua Changxi, his eyes complex and unclear.

Hua Changxi actually took action against Xia Zhen directly, which he did not expect.

Xia Zhen comes from the Xia family, and the Xia family is the guardian family of the Four Spirit Realms!

After Xia Zhen arrived at the Alchemy Saint Hall, even if he had selfish motives, he had indeed done some real things for the Alchemy Saint Hall. He still had merit to the Holy Land.

But Hua Changxi took action against him so mercilessly...

Only at this moment does Wen Shouren truly understand Gu Xing's worry and uneasiness about Hua Changxi, and why he didn't choose to assist her.

Hua Changxi is too hateful of evil and too black and white. Such a person, if she doesn't change, cannot be the Master of the Holy Land.
