Chapter 172 Dongfeng Po's visit
On this day, Puyang Baili, a deacon of Ziyun Sect, was reporting on the matter to the great elder Liu Jinsong when he suddenly heard a disciple saying that a man who claimed to be "Dongfengpo" at the mountain gate asked for a visit.
"The east wind broke?" Puyang Baili was first shocked, then ecstatic.
Isn’t Dongfeng Po the formation master invited by the eldest prince during his last expedition at the Qiyun Mountain Secret Realm?
Puyang Baili said excitedly to Liu Jinsong: "Elder Liu, Dongfengpo is the most powerful formation master in Yunwu County and a guest of honor for the eldest prince. Last time I visited the treasure in Qiyun Mountain Secret Realm, I had some contact with him. Although this person is a bit introverted, his formation is amazing. If we can get the support of Dongfengpo and use the formation to make up for the gap in strength between the two sides, we will definitely play a role in surprise and attacking him unpredictable."
Although Liu Jinsong did not know much about Dongfeng Po, he had indeed seen the elusive effect of the formation. Sometimes, he could reach hundreds of thousands of troops in one round.
"Baili, please send someone to welcome the Dongfengpo in quickly. Never neglect it. Oh, no, you go and welcome him in person. First, see what he is saying about this visit, and you can also find out whether he is interested in joining our great cause. Any price, as long as it is not too outrageous, can be satisfied. At the appropriate time, I will meet that person in person."
Over the years, Liu Jinsong has been developing his own power openly and secretly, planning to be the leader of Ziyun Sect, with the intention of replacing it and presenting a delicate balance with Yun Tianhao, the leader of Ziyun Sect, but it was not enough to hit it with one blow, so he endured it.
If Dongfengpo and the eldest prince can support themselves, the power balance between the two sides will change significantly, and the balance of victory will obviously tilt towards one side, overthrow Yun Tianhao and replace it, it will definitely be three fingers to pick up snails - it is a sure thing to get it.
After introducing Dongfeng Po to Ziyun Sect in Baili Puyang, he said almost flatteringly: "It seems like a good day today. My left eye kept jumping this morning. It turned out that senior Dongfeng came to my sect, which really made my face shine and my mood feel relaxed."
Dongfeng Po bowed and said, "The Deacon Puyang is polite. We cooperated with each other in the last trip to Qiyun Mountain Secret Realm. We felt the same way at first sight. Since we parted, we missed him very much, so we came to disturb him and came uninvited. We also asked the Deacon Puyang to forgive him."
"Where is it? When I parted last time, I even miss you, but you are a master of formations and your whereabouts are like idle clouds and wild cranes. Even if I want to visit you, I can't understand it. I can only hide my thoughts in my heart."
The two of them praised each other and greeted each other, true and false, false, false, no one could explain clearly, and no one cared about it.
"Puyang Deacon, I have always been idle and erratic before, but now I am old and want to settle down. After exploring Qiyun Mountain last time, I have been focused on following the eldest prince. The eldest prince is handsome and has a noble character. He is the best candidate for the future throne. He has relied on his return to the eldest prince. Therefore, I came here this time, one to visit you, an old friend, and the other to convey a message to the eldest prince. I don't know if it is convenient to meet Elder Liu, and it is better to say something in person."
Puyang Baili is also a person with a slight orifice-like heart. Seeing Dongfeng Po say this, he naturally knew that the eldest prince entrusted Dongfeng Po to tell Elder Liu that there was something important to tell Elder Liu, so he smiled and said, "Elder Liu had already swept the bed and waited for him when he heard that Senior Dongfeng was visiting."
Before Puyang Baili and Dongfang Po entered the house, they saw Liu Jinsong walking out and said enthusiastically: "I have heard of Mr. Dongfeng's name for a long time. When I saw him today, he was a paradise with a Taoist bone and fairy style, and was full of spirit."
Dongfengpo represents Zhou Shenghan, the eldest prince of Yunwu County. Liu Jinsong urgently needs to take advantage of the relationship between the eldest prince, so naturally he also caters to Dongfengpo.
"Elder Liu, I accept your good words. This time I came to the door to bother you. First, I heard the eldest prince and General Dong talk about you many times, but I have never had the chance to meet you. I am very sorry. This time I came to make up for the regret; second, I was passing on the message to the eldest prince."
Liu Jinsong heard Dongfeng Po say that the eldest prince had talked about him and felt happy. He also heard that the eldest prince had news to pass it on to him. He knew that this matter was important, so he immediately stepped back and led Dongfang Po to a secret room.
In the secret room, only Liu Jinsong, Puyang Baili and Dongfeng Po were left.
Dongfang Po then informed Liu Jinsong of the news about the Qingzhou competition and the news that the current Holy Lord Zhou Zhengyu asked his nine children to select five people to participate in the competition.
"Elder Liu, the Holy Lord immediately asked the nine princes and daughters to select five people to participate in the Qingzhou competition, obviously because he had the intention of specifically assessing the princes. The eldest prince was handsome and had a noble position, so he must stand out in this assessment. Therefore, he set out to select the five high-level martial arts warriors with the highest martial arts realm, the strongest talent, and the best combination among his forces. General Dong knew Elder Liu's intentions, so he specially proposed to let Elder Liu select three to five high-level martial artists from trusted people to participate in the internal selection of the eldest prince organization. If any disciple is finally selected, it will be more conducive to establishing a more inseparable relationship between Elder Liu and the eldest prince."
"Elder Liu, I am a man who is obsessed with formations. I don't speak well and we are just wise and don't say secret words. The eldest prince also knows about Elder Liu's heart through General Dong, and sincerely wishes Elder Liu to be as he wishes as soon as possible. Therefore, I specifically instructed me to assist Elder Liu at all times and everywhere. If necessary, General Dong can also draw twenty warriors from the Yulin Guard, and wait for Elder Liu to send orders at any time to assist Elder Liu in planning major events."
"Elder Liu, the eldest prince's appreciation and desire for you is very obvious. It is the time to use people. If Elder Liu can control the Ziyun Sect and ascend to the position of sect leader, it will be a great help to the eldest prince ascend to the Great Treasure. At the same time, if Elder Liu and Ziyun Sect have the support of the eldest prince, they will definitely be like a tiger and become one of the top forces in Yunwu County."
"In order to show your feelings, after the event is completed, the eldest prince is willing to provide a top-quality weapon, three drops of jade-mulberry liquid to Elder Liu as a reward. In the future, Yunwu County will also provide key support and preferences in terms of resources, and cultivate Ziyun Sect into the leading sect of Yunwu County and become an existence like the Duanmu Family."
Dongfeng Po told the story, but Liu Jinsong became more excited as he listened, and the more he listened, the more excited he became.
Establishing a connection with the eldest prince was something he had been trying to plan and plan before, and even gave him a lot of benefits to Dong Fan, which resulted in the last time Puyang Baili assisted Dong Fan in the secret realm of Qiyun Mountain to explore treasures.
Now, the eldest prince came to the door and promised many benefits. How could he not make Liu Jinsong feel excited?
If he could get the support of the eldest prince, he would be very confident that he would drive Yun Tianhao from the position of sect leader in a short period of time and replace him.
After settling Dongfengpo for a long time, Liu Jinsong went to find the Supreme Elder who had always supported him overnight, and informed all the meaning of the eldest prince conveyed by Dongfengpo.
There are two Supreme Elders in Ziyun Sect, both of whom are at the eighth level of the Golden Dan Realm. Unless the sect reaches a critical moment of life and death, they generally do not actively interfere in the sect’s affairs.
The two Supreme Elders, Ding Chunhua, supported Yun Tianhao and Li Qiushi supported Liu Jinsong. Therefore, although the Ziyun Sect has become a situation where two factions are in harmony, it still maintains a delicate balance.
"Jinsong, according to the sect's regulations, the Supreme Elder generally will not take the initiative to inquire about the sect's affairs, so I cannot stand up and support you to take the lead. But I can guarantee that at least I can help you restrain Ding Chunhua. In this way, you can implement your own plan without distraction. In addition, whether this person is reliable is very important. You must not be fooled by others and fall into traps or traps. It is best to verify it."
Because Li Qiushi benefited from Liu Jinsong's father, he has always supported Liu Jinsong openly and secretly. Even if Liu Jinsong engages in mountain dominance in the Ziyun Sect and divides the power of Ziyun Sect, Li Qiushi also suppresses Yun Tianhao, the leader of Ziyun Sect, so that Yun Tianhao can't do anything to Liu Jinsong, and he has to watch him continue to grow bigger and stronger.
"Supreme Elder, you can rest assured about this. Puyang Baili had previously explored a secret realm with this person, which can be said to be an old acquaintance; and this person is a master of formations, arrogance and a lone personality. Except for those with high and powerful positions like the eldest prince, ordinary people cannot invite him."
"It's so good! If everything is ready, try to solve the problem in a peaceful way. It is not easy for Ziyun Sect to develop to this day. Don't cause internal conflicts and cause fierce bloody conflicts. Otherwise, even if you win Yun Tianhao and win the position of sect leader, what's the point of Ziyun Sect that has only gained an empty shell? The Ziyun Sect can develop to this day, and condense the efforts of the sect leaders, elders and disciples of Ziyun Sect in history, and can no longer withstand the tossing."
Although Li Qiushi said the truth so hard, Liu Jinsong now only has the position of the sect leader, how much can he listen?
Looking at the background where Liu Jinsong quickly left, Li Qiushi shook his head slightly and sighed in his heart.
In fact, as the old man of Ziyun Sect, Li Qiushi has deep feelings for Ziyun Sect; and, as the Supreme Elder of Ziyun Sect, no matter who is the position of the leader of Ziyun Sect, it will have no effect on him at all.
The reason why Li Qiushi supported Liu Jinsong openly and secretly, and suppressed Yun Tianhao was because Li Qiushi benefited from Liu Jinsong's father when he was young, and he also promised to protect Liu Jinsong's safety and future in Ziyun Sect.
Although Li Qiushi looked down on Liu Jinsong's actions in Ziyun Sect recently and felt that protecting Liu Jinsong in this way was not conducive to Ziyun Sect, Li Qiushi was also very contradictory. On the one hand, he had to fulfill his promises and on the other hand, he had to take into account the interests of Ziyun Sect.
