Langya Sacred Land Plays the Victim

The Langya Sacred Land continuously sends its elders to communicate with the other eight top sects in the world.

Their communication revolved around one theme: they had indeed not formed an alliance with the Azure Cloud Sect; it was all a conspiracy by the Azure Cloud Sect.

Furthermore, the Sage Master publicly declared in the Langya Gazette: "This is all a conspiracy by the Azure Cloud Sect. Please, all our allies, do not be deceived. We have been wronged. Do not fall into the Azure Cloud Sect's treacherous scheme. The Langya Sacred Land's stance against the Azure Cloud Sect will never change."

When the other sects received the Langya Gazette, they all sneered, not believing a word the Langya Sacred Land said.

Even though the elders of the Langya Sacred Land had already pleaded in a low voice, almost kneeling down to beg for mercy, these sects still wouldn't budge.

Because they haven't received any benefits yet.

On the other hand, the Langya Sacred Land adopted a very humble stance, with even the Sage Master personally making a statement, but they were not willing to yield an inch when it came to interests.

Therefore, the situation in Langya Sacred Land has not eased, but rather has worsened.

At the Azure Cloud Sect, Zhang Yang frowned as he looked at the Langya Gazette.

Why did he feel that this Langya Gazette had some of his style?

The actions of the Langya Sacred Land are a classic example of playing the victim!

But when someone plays the victim to a certain degree, they naturally occupy the moral high ground. Then, standing on that moral high ground and launching a barrage of attacks, the situation is reversed.

"Learning so quickly at the Langya Sacred Land?" Zhang Yang shook his head. "It must be that old guy!"

He had to admit that the old guy who had lived for two thousand three hundred years had become a spirit.

It seems that the same trick won't work anymore; we need to find a different one.

On the Azure Cloud Sect's side, after receiving some guests from other sects, Zhang Yang stopped seeing visitors.

Throughout the entire Azure Cloud Sect, he was always primarily responsible for receiving people from all sides.

After he stopped receiving guests, it was practically equivalent to the entire Azure Cloud Sect ceasing to receive visitors.

His purpose in doing this was to show all the sects in the world that the Azure Cloud Sect doesn't cooperate with just anyone. This strategy of recruiting some and suppressing others is designed to make those who want to cooperate more willing to do so, and even make those who don't want to cooperate hopeful for cooperation.

On the other hand, after the military exercises, the situation was brewing all over the world, and the crisis of the Azure Cloud Sect was temporarily resolved.

Zhang Yang wanted to use this time to intensify his training.

He only needs to dedicate a little time each day to handling the most important matters.

The Azure Cloud Guesthouse has now truly become the reception office of the Azure Cloud Sect.

Chunxiao, who used to have a relatively leisurely time, is now extremely busy.

"Our eldest master is in seclusion and has no time to receive guests. Next!"

"The channels for cooperation with the Azure Cloud Sect have been closed. Those who wish to obtain resources from the Azure Cloud Sect can purchase them from the Azure Moon Merchant Association, or seek out sects that have already cooperated with the Azure Cloud Sect. Next!"

"The Azure Cloud Sect did indeed agree to give lectures to Rogue Cultivator, but have you settled in Azure Cloud Town? Since you haven't, why don't you hurry up and settle in? Next."

"You've already registered as a resident of Azure Cloud Town? Then hurry up and check out the Azure Cloud Museum! What are you waiting for? Next!"

"You've already checked in fifty times. Want to visit the Azure Cloud Ruins? That's the Azure Cloud Museum's responsibility. Go register Azure Cloud Museum! Next!"

After a busy day, Chunxiao was parched and had a sore back.

Receiving so many people every day is more tiring than her cultivation practice.

"No, I need to hire some people!"

She's the director of the Azure Cloud Guesthouse, how could she personally receive guests when she's so busy every day?

She went to the Azure Cloud Town Government office and found Liu Ming: "Director Liu, I need to post a job advertisement!"

Liu Ming smiled as he registered Chunxiao's information; all of this would cost money.

In Azure Cloud Town today, the various institutions are independent yet interconnected, and have begun to operate autonomously.

And the entire Azure Cloud Town is expanding every day.

Because the population entering Azure Cloud Town is increasing.

Among them are countless Rogue Cultivators who are rushing here from other continents one after another.

Because they had all heard that the Azure Cloud Sect was going to give lectures to Rogue Cultivator and show them Rogue Cultivator.

Moreover, the prohibition of violence in Azure Cloud Town made many Rogue Cultivator feel safe.

If that's the case, why not go to Azure Cloud Town?

Azure Cloud Town gradually earned the reputation of being Holy Land for Rogue Cultivator!

Many Rogue Cultivator, after entering Azure Cloud Town and observing it, gradually chose to settle Azure Cloud Town.

They were originally Rogue Cultivator, with no fixed abode, so what did it mean for them to settle in Azure Cloud Town?

Besides, settling down is just a formality; they can still leave later.

Thinking about it that way, it's totally worth it for them.

Unbeknownst to them, once they settled in Azure Cloud Town, they were branded with the mark of the Azure Cloud Sect.

With the Azure Cloud Sect's mark on them, how could other sects not have different opinions about this group of Rogue Cultivator?

In other words, this group of Rogue Cultivator will most likely have to stay on the Azure Cloud Continent.

This is an invisible battle for population, and also a battle for talent!

Compared to other sects that abducted members from the Azure Cloud Continent, the Azure Cloud Sect chose to target Rogue Cultivator, thus winning over a large number of Rogue Cultivator.

There are countless Rogue Cultivator throughout the world.

These Rogue Cultivator have to check in at the Azure Cloud Museum every day. After checking in for hundreds of days in a row, their colors will probably have to be changed to those of the Azure Cloud Sect.

"I understand!"

Inside the Azure Cloud Museum, the monk Hui Qing, who was checking in, had his eyes shining!

Hui Qing had arrived in Azure Cloud Town long ago, even before the military exercise.

However, Zhang Yang knew Hui Qing's purpose in visiting the Azure Cloud Sect and had not agreed to it.

In utter desperation, Hui Qing pondered for a long time before coming up with a solution: to visit the Azure Cloud Museum.

In his opinion, with two hundred check-ins, he should be qualified to join the Azure Cloud Sect, right?

This was a public promise made by the Azure Cloud Sect; how could it be disregarded?

Whenever he went to the Azure Cloud Sect, he would always seek out Zhang Yang to inquire about Buddhist Dharma teachings.

Afterwards, he dutifully participated in the "check-in" activity at the Azure Cloud Museum.

He has already checked in 57 times. Although he is still far from 200, there is always hope if he keeps trying.

He had just stepped out of the Azure Cloud Museum when he uttered the sentence that he had realized.

Hui Yun, who was accompanying him to the check-in, asked in surprise, "Senior brother, what have you realized?"

"I have grasped the true essence of Buddhist Dharma!" Hui Qing said slowly.

Hui Yun was shocked and hurriedly said, "Senior brother, let's hurry back to Return to Origin Temple, and then you should go into seclusion immediately!"

Now that the true essence of Buddhist Dharma has been grasped, it is of great importance to Return to Origin Temple.

Hui Qing shook her head. "I can't leave now. I must see Zhang Yang... Even if he doesn't give me that Buddhist scripture, I will still discuss Buddhism with him. Benefactor Zhang Yang possesses great Buddhist nature; discussing Buddhism with him will surely bring me great gains."

Hui Yun was dumbfounded, not understanding why Hui Qing said that.

Hui Qing glanced at Hui Yun, pointed to the Azure Cloud Museum, and said, "Among these is the true Buddha!"

He finally understood why Zhang Yang had required these people to clock in.

The entire Qingyun Museum is shrouded in spiritual power. Anyone who enters the Qingyun Museum with a less than steadfast mind will all be converted into the Qingyun religion!

What's particularly frightening is that the Enlightenment at Azure Cloud Museum is a gradual and subtle process that is impossible to guard against.

Even he, a Buddhist practitioner, has only now been able to understand his own mind and nature, and see his true self.

This "Buddha Realm" is what he seeks.

Therefore, Hui Qing was determined to go to the Azure Cloud Sect and insisted on meeting Zhang Yang.
