SFS Chapter 395 Situation
Chapter 395 Situation
In the inner cabinet of the Diyin Sect, a graceful figure in aqua blue sat on an ancient wooden bench, her long legs crossed, a book lying on her knees, her soft face showing a tranquil and elegant expression, her three thousand black hair fixed together by a few simple hairpins, part of it hanging on her shoulders, spreading out like ink satin, she half leaned on the chair, a picture of a beauty reading a paper.
The person in charge of the report couldn't help but breathe softer when he saw the woman, for fear of disturbing the other person.
This woman's beauty is completely different from Lin Zhao's pure and detached beauty and Ji Wantang's stunning beauty. She exudes a gentle and intellectual quality that is unique to women.
Although her appearance is not as gorgeous and delicate as Ji Wantang, and her temperament is somewhat inferior to Lin Zhao's cold and unparalleled, she has her own unique charm.
"Young Master, there has been no movement from Lin Zhao, and Ji Wantang has already eliminated hundreds of cultivators."
The woman reading in the Diyin Sect’s cabinet is naturally Xu Lewei, the young master of the Diyin Sect.
After hearing the disciple's report, Xu Lewei slowly put down the book in her hand and looked up at the disciple: "Oh? The battle record of the young master of the Phoenix Medicine Sect is somewhat inconsistent with her reputation that is almost as famous as Ji Wantang."
Although his attitude remained elegant and refined during the conversation, there was a hint of sarcasm towards Lin Zhao.
After all, as a woman, Xu Lewei also regarded Ji Wantang as her rival in the past. However, Ji Wantang became stronger and stronger. When the opponent became so strong that she was far inferior to him, Xu Lewei lost the desire to compete.
But at the same time, it must be said that Ji Wantang also has a status in Xu Lewei's mind that others cannot talk about. For example, Lin Zhao, who was not well-known in the past and whose military record is unknown now, actually wants to be on par with Ji Wantang.
For Xu Lewei, there was no doubt that Lin Zhao's appearance insulted Ji Wantang.
So that ranking was also arranged by her on purpose.
I didn’t expect that I would be ranked like this, but Lin Zhao hasn’t appeared yet.
The disciple said, "Maybe she is afraid. She wants to be as famous as Ji Wantang. Ji Wantang is now a spirit-transforming person. He is definitely the next Ancestral Phoenix Emperor. What kind of person is Lin Zhao? Her Phoenix luck was taken away from her at an early age. She was able to reach the Great Perfection of the Nascent Soul Stage. I guess she has used up all her resources."
Before Xu Lewei responded, a laugh was heard from not far away.
"Brother Wang Lang is right. I also think that Lin Zhao is just a person who seeks fame and reputation."
The young man who came in looked at the disciple with satisfaction, and said to Xu Lewei with a smile: "Ji Wantang has been directly promoted to the upper selection by the judges. I guess it was Lingtian Pavilion who did this, because they were afraid that Ji Wantang would get more support from the cultivators in the lower selection."
Xu Lewei's eyes flashed with sarcasm when she heard this, "Their behavior will only intensify the monks' admiration for Ji Wantang."
No matter what, a blacksmith must have strong tools himself. If they want to promote Lin Zhao, they have to make sure that Lin Zhao herself is strong enough for them to promote her.
After Lin Zhao had not appeared for a long time, their actions to deliberately remove Ji Wantang's glory would only make people despise Lin Zhao even more.
Xu Lewei narrowed her beautiful eyes: "Since Lingtian Pavilion wants to arrange for Ji Wantang to go directly to the election, as the opposing party, shouldn't we also do something? Otherwise, people will think that we, Diyin Sect, are easy to bully."
The Diyin Sect had not taken sides for many years, but now that it had taken sides, Lingtian Pavilion would have to compete with them. If they did not fight back at all against the other party's actions, wouldn't it mean that the Diyin Sect was easy to bully?
Xu Leqing laughed: "Sister, you are right. I will ask someone to do it right away!"
Xu Lewei nodded imperceptibly, then looked at the disciple who was reporting to her and said, "Take this news to Hehuan Palace and see how they react."
Guangming Hall would naturally oppose Lingtian Pavilion without hesitation. Even the Hehuan Palace, although they were able to take sides earlier than the Diyin Sect, the Hehuan Palace has always been smooth-talking and changeable.
To put it nicely, it means knowing how to judge the situation; to put it bluntly, it means being a fence-sitter.
Therefore, Xu Lewei had to suppress the Hehuan Palace's desire to change with the wind from the very beginning.
……
As the news of Ji Wantang's direct promotion to the election spread, it caused heated discussions among the monks participating in the imperial election.
For a moment, the Tiantong Mirror was filled with ridicule and dissatisfaction towards the behavior of Lingtian Pavilion and Shenghuang Palace.
[Since Ji Wantang has signed up for the lower election, shouldn't she follow the normal process and move up to the upper election step by step? Could it be that the judges of the imperial election think that Ji Wantang's ability is not enough to make it to the upper election? ]
[Those above, don't pretend to be ignorant. Aren't they just afraid that Ji Wantang will accumulate too much reputation in the lower and middle selections and overwhelm that grassroots Phoenix girl? ]
[Does Ji Wantang need to accumulate reputation to defeat that country bumpkin? Ji Wantang can crush her to death with just one finger. ]
……
With each piece of news, the direction of the situation in the Zuhuang plane is becoming increasingly out of control. Under pressure from all sides, Lingtian Pavilion can only make this arrangement.
Inside Lingtian Pavilion, Yang Jingjing looked expressionlessly at the comments made on Tiantong Mirror Square displayed in the water mirror in front of her.
She watched as the remarks became more and more extreme. Under the influence of some people with ulterior motives, Lin Zhao's reputation had almost been completely destroyed.
Cao Yunxuan said: "Do you want our people..."
"Stop it." Yang Jingjing pinched her brows: "If we attack again at this time, we will appear to be a joke."
She sighed heavily: "If... it really doesn't work, I will do the same as Ji Wantang and directly participate in the next election to stabilize the current trend first."
Cao Yunxuan was horrified: "You are only in the early stage of Nascent Soul now, your foundation is still shallow, and you are the young master of Lingtian Pavilion. If Ji Wantang chooses to target you, what a blow it will be to Lingtian Pavilion. This is absolutely unacceptable!"
Yang Jingjing shook her head: "Are you going to ask the younger generation of the Holy Phoenix Palace and the royal family to take action? This is too ugly."
The strongest of the younger generation in the Holy Phoenix Palace is also at the Great Perfection of the Nascent Soul Stage, but those among the younger generation in the Holy Phoenix Palace who have this level of cultivation can definitely ascend, and their family foundation is not weak either. Knowing that they are definitely no match for Ji Wantang, there is no need for them to risk their lives for Lin Zhao.
This is the case in the Holy Phoenix Palace, not to mention the royal family, where there is Prince Hai who is wholeheartedly in love with Ji Wantang.
Each situation is worse than the last.
Cao Yunxuan still didn't support it. "The younger generation of Lingtian Pavilion is not the most powerful among you. Why not let Lingtian Pavilion's Nascent Soul Great Perfection take action?"
"Having reached this level, who among the younger generation of Ling Tian Pavilion do you think can be my rival?"
Cao Yunxuan was speechless.
"If I can't temporarily stop Ji Wantang's momentum from growing, who else can help?" Yang Jingjing smiled bitterly: "Let's go, you know this is a road that will end in the end."
