During these days of waiting in Tonglu City, Su Chen made four or five plans.
All of them are aimed at Wulan Villa.
Twenty-six days after the letter was sent.
Su Chen finally arrived at Zhu Ming Palace. The person who came this time was the second elder of Zhu Ming Palace.
As the core of the sect, the second elder came in person, which was regarded as paying enough attention to Su Chen.
The two of them got together in a private room of a restaurant in Tonglu City.
When they first met, the second elder also spoke politely and asked about Su Chen's recent situation.
Speaking of which, I really didn't encounter too much trouble.
The journey down was relatively smooth.
"At the end of last month, the two sects, Qi Lou and Liuli Pavilion, announced that they would cooperate closely.
The two families want to unite and share their techniques for refining jade elixirs.
There are many forces in Jin State, and now they all side with their two sects. ”
Su Chen didn't feel surprised when he heard the second elder's words.
Before Zhu Minggong mastered the refining techniques of jade elixirs, only Qilou and Liuli Pavilion in the entire Jin State mastered related techniques.
The two forces were competitors at that time and could not deal with each other.
But now, the Jin State has the behemoth Zhuming Palace in refining jade elixirs.
Not only is the medicine refining technique far superior to the two sects, but Zhu Ming Palace's sect background is also far superior to the two of them.
Ever since the news of Zhuming Palace refining jade elixir spread, the status of the two sects began to plummet.
The senior officials of Qilou and Liuli Pavilion are not fools. After problems arise, they will definitely want to change.
The union of the two sects was expected.
As for what the second elder said, other forces sided with Qi Lou and Liuli Pavilion and supported their two sects.
This is more normal, the butt determines the head.
The attitudes and positions of other sects are based on their own interests.
Zhuming Palace is the only one, what good does it bring to other sects?
Allowing Zhu Minggong to have a unique advantage in jade elixirs will only give Zhu Minggong the power to command sky-high prices.
For them, these are either advantages or disadvantages.
After pulling Zhu Minggong off the altar, there was another sect confronting him.
Whether it is a force that needs elixirs or a force that refines elixirs, this is a good thing.
It is normal for Zhu Minggong to encounter this kind of problem.
"Has the union of their two sects produced some results now?"
Su Chen asked a few questions.
I saw some pictures when I was in Zhuming Palace before.
The picture shows the jade elixir refined by Qi Lou and Liuli Pavilion.
But judging from the appearance of the elixir, it is a very elementary existence.
Most impurities are not removed.
Both sects are in the introductory stage of jade elixirs. In Su Chen's view, it is not easy to improve if the two sects unite.
But looking at the face of the second elder of Zhuming Palace, Su Chen knew that he still had something to say.
"At the beginning of the month over at Qilou, a jade elixir was put on display.
Its quality has improved a lot.
Zhu Ming Palace has been under tremendous pressure recently.”
complain.
Generally speaking, when complaints are spoken, it is usually to refuse or ask for something.
The second elder of Zhu Ming Palace has an extraordinary status in the entire Jin Kingdom.
He complained in front of him, and Su Chen already had some guesses in his mind.
"Fan Chengyan from Wulan Villa hates you very much.
The Palace Master has already thought of many ways to mediate.
But the effect is still not very good.”
When the second elder said this, Su Chen roughly understood.
The reason why I complained before is also very clear.
"In the beginning, Fan Chengyan actually had room for negotiation.
But during the Xuanying Conference, you hurt Sang Moyuan.
These new and old grudges were added together, and she was completely unwilling to talk about it.
The palace owner had previously used the power of Zhuming Palace to invite many forces to help suppress Wulan Villa.
But now, many forces are beginning to wait and see.”
When the second elder said this, he paused.
He was observing Su Chen's expression to decide what to say next.
"Elder Su, you also know about Fan Chengyan.
In Jin State, he has always been domineering and reckless in doing things.
The palace owner has tried his best, but the grudges are really inextricable.
Wulan Villa is another large sect, with even greater strength behind it.
Zhuming Palace is now standing at a key node.
If we continue to fight Wulan Villa and Fan Chengyan, we may miss the opportunity for development."
Speaking of which, everything is very clear.
Zhu Minggong was unwilling to help himself and wanted to stop the confrontation with Wulan Villa.
"Elder Su, in our Zhuming Palace, you are still the elder in the palace.
All the elders of Zhuming Palace, including the palace master, remember your contribution.
If you need anything, just write a letter and send it back to the palace.
It's just that at this stage, we need to stabilize the overall situation.
Zhu Minggong wanted to continue to lead, but he really didn't have the energy to fight against Wulan Villa.
So.”
These words were actually what Su Chen expected.
Not long after the second elder's words began, Su Chen had already thought of this.
What should I say in person?
If you are still complaining at the beginning, it must be bad news for you.
"Elder Su.?"
Seeing that Su Chen didn't answer, the second elder hesitated for a moment and asked.
"Second Elder, don't worry, I can understand Zhu Minggong's decision."
Since they all found themselves saying this face to face, Zhuming Palace must have discussed it clearly internally.
These words are the conclusions they have reached.
"Elder Su, Zhu Ming Palace's information network is considered to be extensive in the Jin Kingdom.
Although Zhu Minggong does not have the strength to fight against Wulan Villa now, this information network can still give you a lot of help.
There is a map here with the information collection points set up by the palace in various places marked on it.
If you need anything, such as finding out Fan Chengyan's location, you can go to them to find out. ”
With that said, the second elder also pushed the map in front of Su Chen.
But how much help can these really help?
If these intelligence networks are not in a central location, they will not be able to collect core information at all.
For example, the news network on the west side will definitely not know the situation on the east side.
I found the news network on the west side. Even if I knew everything about myself, I only got the news on one side.
Su Chen could tell that Zhu Minggong was still kind to him.
I am grateful for the value I have shown and the kindness I have shown to them.
But for his own sake, he went to completely oppose Wulan Villa.
The top management of Zhuming Palace could not make up their mind to form a deep grudge with Fan Chengyan, a domineering person.
It would be inappropriate to say that I have given up helping myself.
For Zhu Minggong, he would only help himself secretly from now on.
Coupled with the combination of Qi Lou and Liuli Pavilion, this is indeed another huge impact on Zhuming Palace. They were worried that they would not be able to maintain their previous status after becoming enemies with Fan Chengyan.
Various reasons came together to finally make this decision.
The two had a simple lunch together and didn't talk more.
The second elder has already given everything he needs to explain, so he won't stay any longer.
After leaving Tonglu City, the second elder went directly to Zuixiang City, which is located north of Tonglu City.
This time I went to see Su Chen. In order to prevent the news from spreading, everyone else was waiting here in Zuixiang City.
In fact, it can be seen from here that Zhu Minggong treats Su Chen.
It is important, but not extremely important.
Here in Zuixiang City, everyone who came from Zhuming Palace is waiting here.
Seeing the second elder coming back, the people who came with him quickly went up to inquire about the situation.
"Elder Su"
"It's nothing. Elder Su's temperament has always been like that. He accepted it calmly.
I didn’t even ask a few more questions”
Hearing this, the people around him didn't say anything more.
Zhu Minggong treated Su Chen like this. Su Chen didn't get into trouble with them, which was already very honorable.
It is impossible for you to treat others badly and others continue to be the same as before.
After a few words of conversation, the second elder asked the younger generation to rest.
Only keep some core layers with you.
Many people know that Su Chen has contributed to Zhuming Palace. After all, he got the elder position of Zhuming Palace at a young age.
But what exactly this contribution is, most people don’t know.
Only these core members know about the second elder.
Seeing the younger generation leaving, they spoke a little more content.
One person frowned, with some worry on his face.
"Second Elder, if we let Elder Su leave like this, will he break the pot?
After all, he still masters the techniques of jade elixir"
This man's concerns are also the concerns of many others.
The refining technique of jade elixir is precious mainly because few people master this technique.
Counting Zhuming Palace, there are only Qi Tower and Liuli Pavilion, a total of three sects.
Once the jade elixir is refined, it will not be allowed to be taken away.
If you want to take it, you must swallow it under supervision.
The three sects protect this refining technique very closely.
Zhu Minggong told Su Chen this time, there was no guarantee that Su Chen would not use the jade elixir refining techniques in exchange for profit.
After hearing what the people around him said, the second elder smiled helplessly.
"I was in the palace at the time and actually told the palace owner this.
In my opinion, even if Zhu Minggong can no longer support Elder Su, it is best not to tell him.
It might be better for us to hide it a little bit.
But when I said this that day, I was scolded by the palace master.”
Hearing this, others around him nodded in understanding.
"The Palace Master has that kind of temper. He thinks that Elder Su has helped us so much, and our current approach is no longer appropriate, right?
Second Elder, it would be strange not to be scolded by the Palace Master for your suggestions. ”
The core members of Zhuming Palace have been with Yao Wen for many years, and they also know their own palace master.
Palace Master Yao's character is indeed very decent.
Especially whoever was kind to Zhu Minggong, he would definitely write it down.
Yao Wen felt guilty that he could not provide more help this time, which made him feel a little sad for a while.
Yao Wen's temperament caused Zhu Minggong to lose a lot under his leadership.
But everything has pros and cons.
I have lost a lot and gained a lot because of this.
And if Yao Wen didn't have such a character, how could so many people under Zhu Ming Palace obey him so much.
Noble moral character is a rare personality charm.
The main reason why so many people follow Yao Wen is also because of Yao Wen's own personality charm.
Speaking of which, the second elder was not too worried about this.
"This thing is actually okay, not that bad.
It is possible that Elder Su will seek refuge with other forces, but think about it, which force can he seek refuge with?
The tough confrontation between Zhu Minggong and Fan Chengyan is a headache. Can other sects do it?
The more widely the jade elixir refining techniques spread, the lower their value becomes.
The benefits that Elder Su wants to get in exchange will also be reduced accordingly.
Elder Su is very smart. He does not teach the techniques of jade elixirs to anyone else, and he can still keep in touch with our Zhuming Palace.
In the future, after Zhu Minggong has overcome difficulties and has greatly improved his strength and foundation, he will still be able to find shelter. ”
The second elder's analysis was very clear.
In his opinion, Su Chen and Fan Chengyan had a grudge.
This will make Su Chen have no choice but to hide in Tibet in the past few decades.
Zhu Minggong couldn't protect him openly, but he could still give Su Chen a lot of help.
As long as Su Chen carefully analyzes the pros and cons, he can make the right choice.
After hearing what the second elder said, several alchemists at the core level of Zhuming Palace also nodded.
But they actually had a lot of misjudgments about Su Chen.
From the beginning, Su Chen never thought of relying on Zhu Minggong to deal with Fan Chengyan.
All they need is Zhu Minggong’s restraint.
It's just that they don't know if they think too much or if they can't even contain it.
So I made the choice I made today.
After a short rest, the second elder led the others to the south.
Coming out this time was not just for Su Chen.
After explaining things clearly to Su Chen, the next thing is business.
In Tonglu City, Su Chen took the next step according to his plan after talking to the second elder of Zhuming Palace.
After entering the fifth-grade initial realm and entering the fifth-grade middle realm, Su Chen's assessment of his own strength should have surpassed Sang Moyuan.
People in Wulan Villa threaten themselves and their families everywhere.
Fan Chengyan is even more domineering.
After getting grudged against her, Su Chen couldn't go to many public occasions.
After going there, I just met Fan Chengyan.
No matter who is present, she, Fan Chengyan and Fan Ba Dao, will take action.
The reputation of being domineering is not something you get casually.
In the past, I was always threatened and endangered.
But now, he has been promoted to the fifth-grade middle realm.
Facing Sang Moyuan again, including Jun Han who helped him at the Xuanying Conference.
Su Chen had seen their strength and judged them.
If he exerted all his strength, Xuanying could win a fair fight with Sang Moyuan during the tournament.
Now that he is one step closer, without the help of others, he will die in his own hands.
Not to mention, if he wanted to attack Sang Moyuan, it would be a surprise attack in secret.
With his current strength, how could he withstand his own assassination?
The only thing that needs to be noted is that there will be many strong people around Sang Moyuan.
I heard it from Palace Master Yao Wen before in Zhuming Palace.
Sang Moyuan is not only Fan Chengyan's apprentice, he also comes from a good family, and the Sang family seems to have some abilities.
But even if it doesn't succeed this time, it doesn't matter.
As long as he takes action and makes them feel threatened, it will be considered a success.
We need to let them know that they can't take action against themselves without any worries. (End of chapter)
