Li Wushang was shocked all over.
Although he had already vaguely guessed the result when he sensed the aura.
But now that I got confirmation from Ling Wuyuan, the last trace of uncertainty that was pressing in my heart completely dissipated.
An indescribable joy surged from the bottom of my heart.
The usual gloominess on his face dissipated at this moment, a deep smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he bowed his hands solemnly:
"Congratulations, Pavilion Master, for becoming a Grandmaster!"
Ling Wuyuan raised his hand slightly, indicating that there was no need to be polite.
"I, Nether Pavilion, finally have a successor."
Li Hanjiang looked at Ling Wuyuan's face that seemed to be getting younger, and slowly spoke.
Relief and indescribable joy melted into his voice.
Although his profound cultivation makes his face not look too old, he knows that his end is in the near future.
In recent years, what worried him the most was that the sect had no successors.
But now, Ling Wuyuan has become a master, and the sect has a successor. This heavy burden that has been weighing on his heart for many years can finally be let go.
"One discipline, two masters."
Li Wushang raised his head, his voice filled with irrepressible excitement.
"From now on, I, Nether Pavilion, will stabilize Azure Profound Sect!"
After a short while, in the secret room, the lights of two ever-burning lamps were dancing, and Li Hanjiang, Ling Wuyuan, and Li Wushang were sitting in them.
The excitement on Li Wushang's face had not faded yet. He looked at Ling Wuyuan, and something was slowly surging deep in his eyes, as if he was considering his words.
He spoke, his voice filled with a certain emotion that had been suppressed for a long time.
"Pavilion Master, since you have become a grandmaster, I, Nether Pavilion, now have two grandmasters in charge. It's time to... deal with the Azure Profound Sect."
As soon as these words came out, the secret room was quiet for a moment.
Ling Wuyuan did not answer immediately.
He walked slowly to the stone table, picked up the cup of tea that had already cooled down, but did not drink it. He just looked at his faintly younger face reflected in Tea.
The candle flame danced in his eyes, extinguishing clearly.
Li Wushang saw him speechless and said again:
"Before, the Pavilion Master has always disagreed with taking action against the Azure Profound Sect, because I, Nether Pavilion, have no advantage over Azure Profound Sect. Both sides are equally powerful. Taking action hastily will only hurt both sides. But it's different now."
He paused, and the depression in his voice turned into determination.
"Now that the Pavilion Master has become a Grandmaster, I, Nether Pavilion, already have two Grandmasters in charge, while Azure Profound Sect only has one, Gu Changqing."
"In terms of top combat power, I, Nether Pavilion, have an absolute advantage. Wouldn't it be a pity if we didn't take advantage of this advantage?"
Ling Wuyuan put down the tea cup, and the porcelain bottom hit the stone table, making a very light but very clear crisp sound.
He raised his head and looked at Li Wushang with his deep eyes, then slowly moved towards Li Hanjiang.
After a long time, he finally spoke, his voice not high, but with a sense of determination that he had never heard before.
"You're right."
Li Wushang's breathing stagnated slightly.
This is the first time that Ling Wuyuan has relented on dealing with the Azure Profound Sect. It is no longer the usual excuse of "the time has not come yet".
"I didn't agree to take action against the Azure Profound Sect before. It was indeed because Nether Pavilion had no advantage against the Azure Profound Sect."
Ling Wuyuan said slowly, his voice as calm as water, but with an unmistakable coldness.
"Gu Changqing entered the realm of master not much later than Supreme Elder. His strength is unfathomable. However, at this level, True Disciple and Elder are even more at a disadvantage. If they act rashly, they will lose more than they win."
He paused, and a cold light flashed across his deep eyes.
"But now, I have become a grandmaster. Nether Pavilion has two grandmasters in charge, while Azure Profound Sect still only has Gu Changqing struggling to support him. Two grandmasters are against one grandmaster. This is a crushing force."
"Exactly so!"
Li Wushang's eyes flashed and he answered.
"In terms of the number of Grandmasters, our sect is two against one and is sure to win. With this advantage, if we don't take action, wouldn't we miss a good opportunity in vain?"
Ling Wuyuan did not answer, but turned his gaze to Li Hanjiang, who had been silent.
Li Hanjiang stood with his hands behind his back, his face as rigid as a rock.
He noticed the gazes of the two people and was silent for a moment before speaking slowly.
"I have no objection."
His voice was hoarse and low, like two pieces of rough sand rubbing against each other.
"The deep grudge between the Nether Pavilion and Azure Profound Sect has long been irresolvable. Now that Wuyuan has become a grandmaster, his strength has indeed surpassed that of the Azure Profound Sect. There is nothing wrong with the timing of taking action at this time."
A smile appeared on Li Wushang's face, and he was about to speak, but Li Hanjiang raised his hand to signal him to calm down.
"But."
Li Hanjiang's voice was a little deeper, and his deep-set eyes glowed with a cold luster under the candlelight.
"Azure Profound Sect is, after all, a top force with a grandmaster at its head. If Azure Profound Sect is pushed into a corner, and a grandmaster desperately seeks revenge, even if I, Nether Pavilion, already have two grandmasters, the result will be a lose-lose situation for both parties."
He paused and his eyes slowly swept over the faces of Ling Wuyuan and Li Wushang.
"What I mean is that it is okay to weaken and suppress Azure Profound Sect."
"But you must not push him to death. Once Gu Changqing feels that the sect is about to be destroyed and fights for his life, the consequences will be unpredictable."
Ling Wuyuan was silent for a moment, then nodded slowly.
"What Supreme Elder said is reasonable. If a master fights desperately, the result will only be losses for both parties."
He raised his head, a cold light flashing in his deep eyes.
"So the purpose of attacking Azure Profound Sect this time is not to destroy it, but to boil the frog in warm water and gradually weaken Azure Profound Sect so that Azure Profound Sect will no longer be qualified to compete with me, Nether Pavilion."
"I understand."
Li Wushang nodded.
"I'll leave this matter to you."
Ling Wuyuan looked at Li Wushang and said.
"Haosheng planned to use me to break through the news about the master."
The candle flame danced in the secret room, casting three figures on the stone wall, pulling out three long black shadows, which took a long time to dissipate.
Azure Profound Sect, No. 35 Annex.
Quiet Room, Sandalwood Incense The green smoke is curling up in the furnace, and the light aroma is intertwined with the coolness of autumn, slowly flowing in the room.
Fang Han sat cross-legged on the futon, with the head-sized piece of Starry Ink Jade resting in front of his knees.
The Internal Qi of Dark Green rushes like a river in the meridians, capturing and refining the medicinal power of Earth Spirit Pill bit by bit, transforming it into strands of pure Internal Qi, and integrating it into Yongquan Acupoint.
"Buzz--"
Starry Ink Jade Waves enveloped his whole body, and his already extremely fast cultivation speed increased even further with the blessing of this wave.
The speed at which the medicinal power is refined is much faster than before, and the speed at which Internal Qi increases is visible to the naked eye.
In less than an hour, Earth Spirit Pill's medicinal power was completely refined.
"Soon!"
Fang Han slowly opened his eyes, and a ray of Dark Green's light flashed away in his eyes, and then disappeared.
He sinks his mind into his body and clearly "sees" the state of Yongquan Acupoint.
At this moment, this Acupoints has almost been filled with Internal Qi, filling it to more than 95%.
"In a few days at most, we should be able to break through to First Grade Late Stage."
Fang Han whispered to himself, with a very faint arc at the corner of his mouth.
With the superposition of 512 times Root Bone Talent Amplification and Starry Ink Jade three times the cultivation speed, the growth of cultivation can be said to be a thousand miles a day, no, three thousand miles a day.
At this rate, in a few days at most, Yongquan Acupoint will be completely filled and reach the bottleneck of First Grade Late Stage.
"The only bad thing is-"
Fang Han's eyes fell on the jade bottle lying beside his knees, he picked it up casually, and the bottle tip was upside down, with only a few tiny wisps of medicinal powder falling down.
Danyao is consumed too quickly.
He frowned slightly.
The fifteen bottles of Earth Spirit Pill previously exchanged were normally enough to support cultivation for a long time, but with the superposition of 512 times the cultivation speed of Root Bone Talent and three times the cultivation speed of Starry Ink Jade, the consumption speed of Danyao far exceeded expectations.
Earth Spirit Pill has been exhausted.
Without Danyao to assist in practice, even if Root Bone Talent is higher, the speed of practice will be greatly reduced.
"You must redeem Danyao again."
Fang Han stood up, pushed the door open and walked out Quiet Room.
The autumn sun is warming up, and the chrysanthemums in the corner of the courtyard are in full bloom, yellow, white, and purple, swaying gently in the autumn wind.
He crossed the courtyard and came to the Side Hall.
Qui Lan is taking two Maid to prepare breakfast. On the table are several plates of exquisite side dishes, a steaming bowl of Blood Rice rice, and a pot of freshly brewed hot tea.
Hearing the sound of footsteps, Qui Lan raised his head, with a very deep solemn look on his face that was different from the past.
Having been with Qui Lan for a long time, Fang Han could see the abnormality of Qui Lan at a glance.
He sat down at the table, picked up the teacup, took a sip, and asked.
"What's wrong?"
Qui Lan hesitated for a moment, then waved away Maid beside him. When Side Hall was left, only she and Fang Han were left.
Just now he spoke in a low voice, with an irrepressible solemnity in his voice.
"Senior brother, I just heard a piece of news when I was out shopping...Nether Pavilion Master Ling Wuyuan has achieved a breakthrough and became a Grandmaster."
Fang Han's hand holding the tea cup paused slightly and raised his eyes to look at Qui Lan.
"Is the news reliable?"
"Should be reliable."
Qui Lan nodded, the solemn look between his brows and eyes getting thicker.
"The news came from the Nether Pavilion. Now people all over the sect are talking about it."
"Nether Pavilion has one sect and two masters. It has become a force with more than one master just like Rain Listening Tower. It has become the force second only to Rain Listening Tower among Seven Sects."
She paused and lowered her voice a bit.
"Given the bad relationship between the Azure Profound Sect and Nether Pavilion, this is really not good news."
"Ling Wuyuan actually became a grandmaster?"
Fang Han's expression remained unchanged.
Ling Wuyuan broke through and became a grandmaster. This news was indeed beyond his expectation.
The realm of a master is not so easy to achieve.
This can be seen from the fact that the total number of grandmasters Qingyang Prefecture Seven Sects is only a handful.
Qingyang Prefecture Martial Artist Ranking, how many of those famous beings can finally step into the realm of masters?
Just a few people.
And Ling Wuyuan did it.
"But-"
Fang Han picked up the tea cup and took another sip. There was no wave on his face.
Unlike Qui Lan, who looked solemn, he didn't feel much pressure in his heart.
Nether Pavilion One discipline and two masters are indeed coming with great force.
But if we talk about "one discipline and two masters", Azure Profound Sect has long been the master.
Although he has not yet broken through to become a Grandmaster, he has a combat power that far exceeds that of an ordinary Grandmaster.
Ordinary masters would only be crushed in front of him.
Nether Pavilion Even if there is one more grandmaster, Azure Profound Sect cannot be threatened.
