Chapter 634: Young Sect Leader Lu Seems to Have Said Sect Leader Yun Fought Yun Zhi to a Draw

~8 min read 1,434 words

Jiu You Sect Headquarters.

In the pitch-black room, four pairs of eyes shone like wolf eyes.

Since Sect Leader Qin, the Jiu You Sect has advocated everything to be simple. As Integration stage powerhouses, whether there is light or no light makes no difference to them, so there is no need to light a lamp.

This is the internal high-level meeting of the Jiu You Sect, hosted by Mu Baiyi, with three Vice Sect Leaders participating, mainly to summarize the harvest of the sect for the quarter.

Shi Huagu held the quarterly report of the barbecue shop. As a veteran big demon, seeing the harvest this quarter, the joy in his eyes could hardly be hidden.

"The report has been distributed to everyone, and I believe everyone has already read it before the meeting."

"The barbecue shop's profitability is gratifying, especially after our sect cooperated with Daoist Tao Yaoye of the Congwendao Sect. By using 'Dreamy Bubble' in the opening, the barbecue shop's popularity has greatly increased. It can be said that even if no one has eaten our grilled skewers now, they have heard of our name."

Tao Yaoye only has Nascent Soul stage cultivation. It stands to reason that she is not qualified for Shi Huagu to call her "Daoist," but Shi Huagu doesn't care about such rules. Anyone who can help him make money is his Daoist.

With the rise of the barbecue shop, the industries that the Jiu You Sect originally operated, such as zoos, funeral industry, smuggling industry, and tomb-raiding industry, are gradually being consolidated. These industries are the responsibility of Vice Sect Leader Xiang.

Among them, the smuggling and tomb-raiding industries can provide stable talent output to the Great Xia prison every year. Of course, it's just consolidation, not closing down.

Mu Baiyi knows deeply that if the Jiu You Sect wants to develop its economy healthily, it cannot rely on just one leg of the barbecue shop; it must walk on multiple legs to walk steadily.

There are rumors in private that Shi Huagu will soon replace Vice Sect Leader Xiang and become the new Executive Vice Sect Leader. As for whether it is a rumor or small news, it is unknown.

Vice Sect Leader Xiang's biggest regret now is that he didn't contact the Heavenly Court Sect first, letting Shi Huagu seize the opportunity. The profit of the barbecue shop makes everyone drool, and Shi Huagu treasures it so much that he doesn't let anyone intervene.

Just kidding, this is life-saving money. Whoever touches it, he will be anxious with them.

"Since the income is so considerable, when can the funds for building Fengdu be approved?" Vice Sect Leader Shi asked Mu Baiyi directly. He is the Vice Sect Leader specifically responsible for building Fengdu.

Mu Baiyi coughed twice: "Building Fengdu is certainly important, but now is the high-speed development period of our sect. Please, Vice Sect Leader Shi, take the overall situation into account and put the matter of building Fengdu aside for now."

Before secretly paying off the debts, Fengdu is temporarily stopped.

Seeing Mu Baiyi's unquestionable tone, Vice Sect Leader Shi stopped mentioning this matter.

Mu Baiyi asked Shi Huagu, who was sitting opposite: "Vice Sect Leader Shi, I see that the taxes paid by our barbecue shop are quite high. Is there any way to reduce or exempt them?"

Hearing this question, Shi Huagu looked distressed: "I'm looking for a way, but we belong to the food manufacturing industry, and the Imperial Court has no major tax reduction or exemption policies in this regard."

"Is that so..."

Mu Baiyi felt a bit regretful and then took out a report.

"This is a report from the Chunjiang Branch Leader. It was just handed to me before the meeting. Everyone, take a look."

The three Vice Sect Leaders were shocked by the content of the report, their voices trembling. "This, this, the Heavenly Court Sect Leader is an Immortal?!"

This report was written by the female ghost Xiao Cui. The report detailed the battle process of the two Great Supremes in Chunjiang City, how Sect Leader Yun showed great power to capture the two Great Supremes alive, and the banner gifted by the government for seeing justice and killing the Black Night Pavilion killer in the barbecue shop.

When Mu Baiyi first learned this intelligence, the situation was no better than the three Vice Sect Leaders. He never thought that the Sect Leader Yun he had met at the barbecue shop headquarters was a legendary ancient Immortal.

It's just that I don't know what the name is.

Shi Huagu frowned, remembering what Young Sect Leader Lu had said: "No, there is another piece of intelligence hidden in this report."

"What is it?" Vice Sect Leader Xiang didn't see the clue.

"When I first met Young Sect Leader Lu, he once told me that their Sect Leader had fought Yun Zhi of the Congwendao Sect..." Shi Huagu paused, as if saying this would bring a natural disaster, but he continued, "The result was a draw."

"What, how is this possible?!"

"Old Shi, do you mean Yun Zhi of the Congwendao Sect is also an Immortal?"

Mu Baiyi tapped the table heavily with two fingers: "Quiet, everyone be quiet."

"You are all Integration stage cultivators. Have you forgotten the most basic concept of cultivators? Facts have happened; what you need to do is accept, not question!"

"Don't forget, the Heavenly Court Sect has never lied to us. Since Young Sect Leader Lu said so, then it is!"

"This is an intelligence worth a thousand gold. Who in the world knows that Yun Zhi of the Congwendao Sect is so powerful? Only we know."

"I think this was originally an intelligence sent by the Heavenly Court Sect to express goodwill. Unfortunately, our vision was limited, and we only know the intention of the Heavenly Court Sect today!"

The three Vice Sect Leaders lowered their heads in shame.

Mu Baiyi's expression was solemn, his brows gloomy: "If Yun Zhi of the Congwendao Sect is an Immortal, then the Imperial Court's strength is even more terrifying than we imagined."

"The Congwendao Sect has an Immortal but has no intention of fighting for power with the Imperial Court, which shows that the Imperial Court may also have Immortals!" The three Vice Sect Leaders were silent. If so, even if their Fengdu was built, it wouldn't be the opponent of the righteous path.

Mu Baiyi was the calmest: "Things haven't reached such a bad level. The righteous path has two Immortals, and the Heavenly Court Sect also has two Immortals, Dou Tianzun and Sect Leader Yun. They are evenly matched."

"We can get close to the Heavenly Court Sect by giving gifts to Young Sect Leader Lu."

"You mean the Yaoyang Sect wants to find you?" Lu Yang looked at the Yaoyang Token in Meng Jingzhou's hand, slightly puzzled.

On the Yaoyang Token was Sect Leader Chi's message to Meng Jingzhou: Holy Son Long, our sect has some insights on how to improve the cultivation method of absorbing the power of the sun. I wonder if Holy Son Long is interested? Please come to Poyang City, Yuzhou, for a talk.

"Is this sharing a cultivation secret manual with you?" Lu Yang was even more puzzled after reading the content on the Yaoyang Token. Is this show of favor too obvious?

"Could it be that they heard about Chunjiang City and want to curry favor with me?"

Lu Yang thought about it, and it was really possible. As for why they waited more than half a month to find Old Meng, it was probably because the Yaoyang Sect felt that contacting after a long time would make it look like they weren't looking for Old Meng because they were afraid of Sect Leader Yun.

Before Lu Yang could speak, he felt movement in the Jiu You Token in his arms. He took it out and looked.

"What's the matter?" Meng Jingzhou stretched his neck to look.

Lu Yang spread the Jiu You Token generously: "The Jiu You Sect is looking for me."

"...... What should we do? Act separately or gather the two sects together?"

Lu Yang touched his chin: "Don't rush to reply. Let's go to Senior Brother Dai for intelligence first." With Li Haoran, they knew a lot about the Jiu You Sect, but they knew very little about the Yaoyang Sect.

Mission Hall.

Dai Bufan looked at the two with a strange expression.

"You mean, the Jiu You Sect and the Yaoyang Sect privately bribed you?" ===== CHAPTER 635 =====
