Chapter 280: Fighting for Disciples (Fourth Update)
"What the sect leader said is true. Without a station, it looks like freedom. In fact, the hearts of everyone in the sect will become increasingly unstable, and the sect's power will be dispersed. Over time, the entire sect will also fall apart."
Tang Peiqing commented that a sect does not have a piece of land and wanders around all day long. It lacks the supply of spiritual fields, spiritual mines and other resources. When it encounters danger, it can only flee in all directions. The sect is like a bandit who can only be quick and quick. .
There is no territory in the sect, just like there is no backbone. Very few organizations can persist in this situation.
For example, if the Tianhun Sect is in danger and the team flees in all directions, the secret realm elders will lead the team alone.
As time goes by, each of them will definitely develop ambitions. It will be difficult to say whether they will listen to the Tianhun Sect or even betray the sect's interests in exchange for their own safety.
"Sir, Sect Leader, if necessary, I can go to the Tianhun Gate."
Tang Peiqing volunteered, but Zhang Junwei couldn't leave at this time.
He has enough seniority to be able to negotiate on behalf of Ghost Ridge Palace, which is a perfect fit.
"Then I'll leave this matter to you. When we study the countermeasures, we need you to make a trip."
"It's easy to say that our sect's interests may have to be promised some."
"What Guiling Palace needs now is to survive, and some benefits can still be tolerated."
Zhang Junwei's eyes sparkled as he looked at the majestic mountains standing in the gray miasma.
"Fifty years ago, I took over the position of sect leader from my master, and I have been working diligently to maintain this foundation. Unfortunately, the current situation is difficult. I did not maintain the Ghost Ridge Palace that my master entrusted to me, and the situation worsened to this point."
Zhang Junwei was lost in memories of the past, his voice melancholy: "When I first took over, I also thought about making Guiling Palace great and glorious, but it seems that I don't have the talent. Today, let alone making Guiling Palace To grow stronger, it is extremely difficult to even protect the family from being destroyed. I am ashamed of my master.
Fortunately, we have successors in Guiling Palace, and there are many disciples. There are disciples like Su Jie, and there are also disciples like Zhu Qingya, who performed well when they first started. ”
As Zhang Junwei was talking, he suddenly changed the topic to Su Jie.
Su Jie said nothing and listened to Zhang Junwei's account.
"I tell you this because I hope you can grow up as soon as possible. This sect belongs to me and to you young disciples, but the future belongs to you after all. If you continue to grow with your talent, one day you might be able to take over. In my position, becoming a Taoist realm is a very promising thing for you.”
Zhang Junwei suddenly changed the topic and looked at Su Jie with piercing eyes, full of ardent affection.
There was something strange in Qiu Laodao's eyes. He slowed down his tea-making movements, as if he had noticed something, and his eyes flickered between Su Jie and Zhang Junwei.
"The disciples will abide by their duties, take Guiling Palace as their own responsibility, wholeheartedly strengthen Guiling Palace, and live up to the expectations of the sect leader."
When Su Jie heard this, his face was filled with excitement and flushed. He played the role of a disciple who was impulsive and excited because he was valued.
In his heart, Su Jie was very cautious and calm, and he would not really take the pie painted by Zhang Junwei seriously.
Su Jie would never think about whether he could become the sect leader in the future.
Just listen to Mo Xiu's words. This is the same as promising your boss to work overtime and wait for the company to go public and allocate equity to you to make your wealth free. The purpose is to let the cows and horses work hard and endure hardships and hard work, and you will have more to eat. of suffering.
Zhang Junwei's words seemed to Su Jie to be empty words. It would be better to add some practical benefits.
"It's great if you have such an idea. The future of Ghost Ridge Palace will depend on you young people."
Zhang Junwei was very satisfied with Su Jie's reaction, but he didn't know what Su Jie was thinking.
"Now our Ghost Ridge Palace is short of enlightened disciples like you. You are very talented, so I want you to become my personal disciple. What are your wishes?"
At this moment, Zhang Junwei finally revealed his true purpose. If you want to recruit Su Jie as your disciple, you should be your own disciple.
"Sect Master, this is inappropriate."
When Qiu Laodao saw that his guess came true, he immediately became anxious.
Fortunately, he had worked hard for so many years before a genius like Su Jie emerged from his branch. This was the face of his branch.
If he was recruited by Zhang Junwei, then who would he be?
That’s not how you rob people!
"Sect Master, this is not in line with the rules."
Tang Peiqing did not side with the sect leader, because this kind of free prostitution was really too much.
Tang Peiqing is older than Zhang Junwei, and his words carry a lot of weight.
Zhang Junwei looked at the two opponents and said calmly: "Of course I know this is not suitable, but now that the sect is in crisis, we need to cultivate the lower-level combat power as soon as possible. Su Jie has outstanding talent, and I will teach him , can make him grow faster
You are also senior elders of the sect. Why don't you listen to Su Jie's thoughts first? ”
After Zhang Junwei finished speaking, he turned his attention to Su Jie.
Qiu Laodao and Tang Peiqing also looked over at the same time, which put a lot of pressure on Su Jie.
If it were any other disciple, he would have been overjoyed to hear such a good thing and would have eagerly agreed.
What an honor it is to become the direct disciple of the master of Guiling Palace!
When you go out, you can look at people with your nostrils, and no one will look down upon you.
But when Su Jie heard this, he seemed to be troubled, faced the gazes of the three people, and then said: "Well, Master, I forgive the disciple for being disrespectful. I have no idea of changing the sect for the time being. Master, he is very good to me. I still I want to continue to learn from the master.”
"Okay, okay, you are indeed my good disciple. Master has not treated you in vain."
When Qiu Laodao heard this, a smile suddenly appeared on his face, and he couldn't help but glance at Zhang Junwei, as if to say: Boy, it's useless to compete with yourself for disciples, even if you are the sect leader.
Su Jie said quickly: "Master, you are serious. I will always remember your kindness."
For Su Jie, if he agrees to Zhang Junwei, he will definitely offend Qiu Laodao.
Respecting teachers and respecting moral principles is also very important in demon cultivators. Once Su Jie changes his family, for Qiu Laodao, it will be like a slap in the face.
Others would only say that Qiu Laodao was incompetent in his teachings and could not even teach his most talented disciples.
And Qiu Laodao was very kind to Su Jie. Su Jie didn't want to be criticized, let alone offend Qiu Laodao, a senior and powerful elder.
In addition, it is indeed dangerous for Guiling Palace to tell the truth nowadays.
If the righteous sect really broke through the mountain gate, he, an inner disciple, and a direct disciple of the sect master would be hunted down by those righteous sects with different importance.
The former may still be let go. After all, he killed an important figure, namely Du Shaochang, and became a enemy of Guanchao Pavilion. The latter was pursued to the ends of the earth, and multiple sects were dispatched together to eradicate the roots.
After all, demon cultivators are known for their retribution, and those who can become the direct disciples of the sect master must be the ones with the highest talent and deepest feelings for the sect.
If it were let go and it grew up to take revenge, the entire sect would suffer huge losses.
