Chapter 854: The Sect Might Not Be Peaceful Recently
Inside a certain palace, figures sat down one after another, at least a dozen of them.
These dozen people had different identities. Some were overlords of one side, some were sect elders, and some were ancestors of aristocratic families, all of whom were Integration stage powerhouses.
"Everyone should be clear about the reason for summoning you here." The master of the palace, the organizer this time, spoke slowly.
"Isn't it just that those two juniors, Lu Yang and Meng Jingzhou, used the newspaper to threaten us, making us restrain ourselves when fighting!" One of the powerhouses said indignantly. He was forced to interrupt halfway through his fight, and he had strength but couldn't use it.
"It's not just the newspaper. Those two juniors also mastered unknown forbidden techniques. Rules are invalid."
"The younger generation is to be feared."
"Even the old thief Bu Yu couldn't do this back then. The blue is better than the blue."
"They can no longer be treated as Spirit Transformation stage juniors."
"Then do you have any good methods? How can we be threatened by mere juniors!" The master of the palace asked indignantly. This was the purpose of summoning everyone.
"How about we get serious, so that these two juniors know to respect their elders and respect strength!"
"The problem is that we don't seem to be able to beat them, especially after they put on the Golden Body Arhat. Although it looks evil, the defense is really not covered. We can't break through even with all our strength."
"Then let them report whatever they want, and we will insist that their newspaper is fake news!"
"It probably won't work. The common people believe in things in the newspaper."
"What kind of bad idea is this? It definitely won't work. So what if we insist? Who knows what we said? Who among you has a way to spread our voices to all parts of Great Xia?"
"Then we also run a newspaper?"
"Useless. The other four immortal sects and the imperial court have all run newspapers. Look, isn't the one that sells the most still the Congwendao Sect's newspaper?"
"Who says it isn't? I heard that the Congwendao Sect also mastered a special method of printing newspapers. The efficiency of printing newspapers is much faster than other forces, and the method is not passed on."
Everyone discussed a circle and looked at each other, finding that Lu Yang and his companion were simply like hedgehogs, untouchable, and more troublesome than Bu Yu Daoist.
Perhaps it was because the news of Lu Yang and his companion being helpful and often coming forward to persuade battles spread, or perhaps many things happened to coincide in the previous period.
In short, ever since Lu Yang and his companion returned triumphantly after completing the task, the big tasks of the Mountain-Moving and Sea-Filling Sect had decreased a lot, not worth Lu Yang and his companion taking action.
Sect Master Kong saw that there was finally time to teach Lu Yang and his companion little tricks after becoming huge, but found that the two had already been able to master Law Heaven and Earth and Dharma Form quite skillfully when completing tasks. The rest was just more practice, and his little tricks were of no use at all.
The tasks in the previous period included various uses of Law Heaven and Earth and Dharma Form, which were very training. Even if Sect Master Kong formulated a teaching plan himself, he couldn't achieve such perfect practice.
"It seems that you two are indeed lucky." Sect Master Kong couldn't help but sigh. Perhaps this is the heavenly talent born of luck.
"There is one more thing. The sect might not be peaceful recently. Pay attention to your safety."
"Not peaceful?" Lu Yang and his companion were puzzled. What could happen to the Mountain-Moving and Sea-Filling Sect?
"Little Jin said he had a bad premonition, feeling that something was going to happen to the sect, and even bought full insurance. As for where this bad premonition came from, Little Jin didn't explain clearly." Sect Master Kong said worriedly. Out of trust in his eldest disciple, he didn't ask Fang Jin for the reason.
"Okay, we will pay attention to safety." Lu Yang and his companion saluted and thanked Sect Master Kong for his concern.
In the next few days, Mountain-Moving and Sea-Filling Sect cultivators could always see two majestic figures walking around the sect. The two could even use magic power to support an entire river without a drop of river water spilling, and their control over their own strength and magic power became more and more exquisite. Fang Jin watched from the side and was amazed.
He was talented enough in Law Heaven and Earth, but he couldn't make such rapid progress as Lu Yang.
He walked over with a smile to say hello: "Junior Brother Lu, Junior Brother Meng."
"Brother Fang, is there anything?" Lu Yang and his companion put down the river in their hands and walked towards Fang Jin step by step.
Every step Lu Yang took, rich spiritual energy that turned into white mist hissed out from behind him, and Lu Yang's figure would gradually shrink in this process.
When Lu Yang walked in front of Fang Jin, he had already returned to his original size, and the white mist spiritual energy behind him looked mysterious and unpredictable.
Fang Jin hesitated for a moment and stated the purpose of his visit: "It's like this. I heard from Master that the two junior brothers are eloquent and persuaded many cultivators to give up fighting, greatly reducing the number of tasks in this sect."
"Master also thought about persuading them in the past, but it didn't have any effect. I also had similar thoughts before, but I heard that Master didn't succeed, so I gave up this idea."
"But now that there are two junior brothers as examples, I am thinking whether I can learn from the two junior brothers how to persuade cultivators, so that I can have a train of thought."
"At the moment, I have a scheduled task on hand. Two Spirit Transformation stage cultivators are going to fight. I wonder if the two junior brothers can go to enlighten and persuade them, and allow me to observe and learn from the side?"
"This..." Lu Yang and his companion were a bit hesitant. It seemed that Brother Fang Jin couldn't learn their method.
But if they said so, wouldn't it hurt Brother Fang Jin's self-confidence?
In this month, Brother Fang Jin had been quite kind to them, meeting all their requirements as much as possible. Refusing directly would be too disrespectful.
Meng Jingzhou gritted his teeth: "Fine, then we two will try. But our method may not be effective every time. Please ask Brother Fang Jin to be mentally prepared."
"That's for sure."
There was nothing to prepare. The three of them left as soon as they said so. On the way to the task site, Fang Jin explained the detailed situation to the two.
"The two sides of the task are two Spirit Transformation stage cultivators, one named Chen Yachong, and the other named He Wu. Chen Yachong is addicted to gambling and owes a lot of money, so much so that he doesn't even have enough cultivation resources in the end, so he borrowed one million spirit stones from his good friend He Wu."
"As expected, Chen Yachong couldn't pay back the money when it was due, so he simply proposed to let He Wu beat him up as a sandbag to pay off the debt. If he wasn't satisfied, he could beat him a few more times."
"He Wu felt that beating him directly wasn't satisfying, and insisted on pressing Chen Yachong to the ground, pressing him into the river to beat him, only then would he be satisfied. That's why he issued a commission to the sect in advance, asking the sect to clean up the aftermath."
Lu Yang was a bit embarrassed. He could see that Meng Jingzhou had a similar reaction.
Looking at this, it didn't seem like a contradiction that could be solved by ordinary persuasion methods. They couldn't let Old Meng pay this million spirit stones for Chen Yachong, right? This couldn't be called a demonstration role, right?
"Why don't you pay the spirit stones!" Meng Jingzhou was furious.
Lu Yang was stunned: "How do you know what I'm thinking?"
"Everything you're thinking is written on your face!"
"I'll pay attention next time." ===== CHAPTER 855 =====
