Chapter 1159 Storm Is Coming, Internal Conflict in Shenxiao
For Pang Hong, his biggest idea is not to fight for power, but to practice like his master. If it weren't for his master's worries, he would not be willing to manage the affairs of Shenxiao Sect.
Now that Shenxiao Sect has grown, he can actually retire, hand over everything to others, and hide behind the scenes.
When Pang Hong said this, he was a little bit nervous, because he didn't know whether he could get Yu Zhenzi's approval and approval, especially at this time.
Originally, he thought that he would be opposed by Yu Zhenzi, but he didn't expect that Yu Zhenzi not only did not express opposition, but also understood Pang Hong's calculations very much.
He said: "In fact, I should have said this a long time ago, but I never had the chance."
As for letting Pang Hong step down from his position as the head of Shenxiao Sect and then retire and live in seclusion behind the scenes, he had already had this idea, and even said that at the beginning it was because he had this idea himself and wanted to retire together.
It's just that this idea also lingered in Yu Zhenzi's mind, and he never had the chance to say it out. After all, everyone stood on different positions and could not empathize.
For example, at present, Pang Hong's position is one of the few existences in the world in terms of authority. Even many true immortals and even powerful people close to the level of Daojun are extremely envious of this position.
You must know that Shenxiao Sect, as one of the top immortal sects in the Shenzhou world, has obtained the favor of heaven and earth luck and the blessing of cultivation, which is difficult for other powerful people to have.
This is just the obvious benefit. There are other intangible benefits and various additional effects that are difficult to explain at once.
Yu Zhenzi feels that he can give up his authority now because his position is no longer of much use to his own practice, and has even become a burden, so he wants to retire.
However, the position of the headmaster of the Shenxiao Sect is different. The power, luck, and various cultivation blessings contained in it are somewhat useful even for the Taoist masters of the seventh level of the True Immortal. Only people like the Taoist masters look down on these and give them to their own addresses.
In today's Shenxiao world, except for these top immortal sects, their Taoist masters gave up their positions of headmasters because the Taoist master Changsheng of the Shenxiao Sect gave up his position of headmaster and was unwilling to lose face. Unlike a junior like Pang Hong, they directly talked to each other on an equal footing, so they gave up the position of headmaster. Otherwise, some of them might not have thought about passing on the position of headmaster.
And this is also the case for many top immortal sects. Although the Taoist masters are not as powerful as the Taoist masters, they think that both sides are equal and are unwilling to lose face for external things, so they pass on their status.
However, the masters of these top immortal sects have to take their face into consideration, but for the second-class True Immortals, they don't need to consider so much.
Facing the powerful Taoist Changsheng, they already admitted that they were inferior to him, and they had no intention of competing with him, let alone being so arrogant as to think that both sides were strong men of the same level.
Therefore, Taoist Changsheng did not linger on the position of the headmaster, and passed it to his disciples. It had no impact on them at all, and they were still unwilling to give up this position and these additional benefits.
Yu Zhenzi could not guarantee that Pang Hong would not be tempted by such things that attracted many true immortals, so even if he had any ideas in his mind, he would never bring it up unless Pang Hong himself proposed to give it up.
Now that he heard that Pang Hong was willing to give up this position, Yu Zhenzi would never stop him, and even agreed with him.
"But this matter is not something we can decide in the final analysis. It depends on what Taoist thinks and whether Shitou agrees with it." Yu Zhenzi said to Pang Hong.
Pang Hong can sit in this position not only because of other reasons, but also because of the support and approval of Changsheng Daojun. In other words, anyone who wants to sit in the position of the head of Shenxiao Sect needs the approval of Daojun.
So even if the two of them have reached an agreement now, in fact, whether Pang Hong can finally step down from the position of the head of the sect still needs the approval of Daojun.
However, in Pang Hong's view, this problem is not a big deal. After all, he still has enough understanding of his master. As long as he proposes it, the master will not refuse it at all.
"Before getting the master's approval, I still want to explain it to several uncles. After all, several uncles support me so much, I can't just let it go without saying a word." Pang Hong said with a smile, feeling quite relieved.
He used to think that the stronger he was, the freer he was, but after he became really strong, he actually found that it was not as much as he thought. As the saying goes, people in the rivers and lakes cannot help themselves. When you become more and more powerful, you will affect many people, and they will also become your bondage and bind you.
Sometimes Pang Hong even wondered, is there really anyone who can be unrestrained and have no freedom?
Now he is almost at the top of the Shenzhou world, but he does not feel any freedom at all. And many of the strong people he knows, whether they are similar to him, weaker than him, or stronger than him, they also seem to have no absolute freedom.
For example, as far as my master is concerned, his practice has reached a level that is unprecedented and unparalleled. In the eyes of other people, the master should be so free and unfettered.
But only those who are close to the Master and have friendship with the Master know that even if they are as powerful as the Master, they still have constraints and burdens.
Master is carrying the Shenxiao Sect on his back, protecting the Shenxiao Sect from wind and rain; he is also carrying the Heavenly Court on his back, endorsing the development of the Heavenly Court; he is also carrying the hopes of countless monks in the world of China, and is continuously developing their practice. , looking for new directions and destinations, so even Master is not free.
Of course, this is what Pang Hong sees in his eyes. Perhaps in the eyes of masters and others who are strong, it is a kind of happiness that even though he is burdened with all this, he is still able to forge ahead.
Just like Pang Hong now, he has a lot of things on his shoulders, but he can no longer feel happy from it. Instead, it has become pressure, so he does not want to continue.
But sometimes it's not just that he can give up easily if he wants to. He needs to give an explanation to others, otherwise he will let others down.
The Master Yuzhenzi in front of me, and several other Masters, are kind to me for preaching, receiving karma, and solving my doubts, and they are also powerful helpers to develop the Shenxiao Sect. Now, how much love is there in this? Well, why can I sit in this position without their efforts?
Therefore, even if he wants to step down and feels that his current position is a burden, he still needs to inform his uncles and get their understanding. This is what he should do.
"It doesn't matter, everything is up to you to decide. Follow your heart. Since you are unwilling to continue in this position, then give up on him decisively. There is no need to consider us. Everything we do is just to get you. Better." Yuzhenzi waved his hand indifferently.
Unlike others, although the relationship between Yuzhenzi and Pang Hong is nominally that of nephew and master, the two of them have a kind of master-disciple and father-son relationship.
After all, at that time, Yu Zhenzi had just been subdued by Pei Xuanjing, and Pang Hong at that time was not the thunder god who is now powerful in the world. He was just a little boy who had just had an extra mouthful of food and was wandering around behind his master. child.
Even Pei Xuanjing often said that he rarely taught his only direct disciple, but often asked Yu Zhenzi and a few others to teach him, so after so many years, they were actually masters and disciples in name only.
Even after so many years, Yu Zhenzi has accepted some disciples, but compared to those of his own disciples, Pang Hong is actually the most considerate to him.
His attitude towards Pang Hong is a bit like that of an ordinary old man. He doesn't care about how great the other person's achievements are or how great things he will do. He just hopes that the other person will live well and everything will go as he wishes.
Now that Pang Hong feels that the position of head coach has become a burden, he naturally supports Pang Hong in giving up.
"Since you don't mind, Uncle Master, then I will go find Master next." Pang Hong said.
"Go on, it's time for you to focus more on yourself. I believe Daojun can understand this, or Daojun is also looking forward to this day." Yu Zhenzi said with a chuckle.
It was Pang Hong's choice to shoulder the Shenxiao Sect in the first place, in order to share the worries of his master. This was something that Pei Xuanjing and Yu Zhenzi knew.
Although Pang Hong's practice has not fallen too much over the years, it has inevitably been affected a bit. So he let go at this time and focused more on his practice. For Pei Xuanjing, it is not what he wants. Looking forward to it.
Pang Hong smiled, said nothing more, turned around and walked out of Shenxiao Yuqing Mansion, then turned down to the Shenxiao Realm.
Looking at Pang Hong's leaving figure, Yu Zhenzi sighed: "This Shenzhou world has been stable for so many years, and it is finally going to be chaotic. I just didn't expect that this might be caused by my sent from Shenxiao."
Although the fact that Pang Hong is resigning as the leader of the Shenxiao Sect is only circulating in the mouths of a few of them, this news will inevitably be spread one day.
Waiting for this news to really spread within the Shenxiao Sect, it will inevitably arouse excitement within the entire Shenxiao Sect.
After all, in the past ten thousand years, some powerful people from the Shenxiao Sect have not thought about this position, but as Pang Hong, the direct disciple of the Taoist Changsheng, as long as he does not reveal his thoughts of resigning, the others will continue to think about it. Don't even think about fighting.
This also makes many strong people have great ambitions, but they can only endure it. After all, you can have any ideas in the Shenxiao Sect, but you cannot not know who the real protector of the Shenxiao Sect is.
But that was in the past. When Pang Hong took the initiative to propose the idea of giving up the idea of becoming the leader of the Shenxiao Sect, it would inevitably attract many people to fight for it. There is no doubt about it.
In Pang Hong's view, this position is a drag, but for all the monks, this is a position that they never dare to dream of. Not to mention other things, the power of this position alone is enough to enter many true immortal ways in the entire Chinese world. Among the top hundred under Jun He Yuzun.
Don't think that the top 100 doesn't sound good, but don't forget how many forces exist in this world of China, how many true immortals exist, even those who are as far away from the sixth level of true immortals as the Holy Lord of Wind and Thunder There are countless people at the Tao Lord level of the Seventh Heavenly Realm.
And this top 100 ranking only refers to the position of the headmaster of Shenxiao Sect, not counting the opponent's own strength. Even if he is a supreme power, an ordinary person, he can sit in the position of the headmaster of Shenxiao Sect, which is enough to have an equal dialogue with many true immortals, and even the true immortal Daojun cannot despise him.
Yu Zhenzi can fully imagine that when the news of Pang Hong's resignation spreads, the whole Shenxiao will be lively, after all, this is a position worth fighting for by many people.
No one thought about it before, because there was Pang Hong, and the identity was different, so no one was qualified to fight for it.
Now it is different. In the entire Shenxiao Sect, there is only Pang Hong, the direct disciple of Changsheng Daojun Pei Xuanjing. If Pang Hong gives up, then others are qualified to fight for it.
Not to mention that Pang Hong has only a few registered disciples and no direct disciples because of his busy schedule in recent years. Even if there are direct disciples, the other strong men dare to fight for this position and are qualified to fight for it.
This is the atmosphere in the entire Shenxiao Sect. With the existence of Changsheng Daojun, even if he does not need to manage the entire Shenxiao Sect deliberately, he will leave his own indelible mark.
Whether in the entire Shenxiao Sect or the Daoyuan, Pei Xuanjing has always implemented the idea that nothing is destined. All opportunities are in front of you. If you want, you can get it with your own efforts. If you can't get it, don't complain about it. It's unfair to yourself.
So the atmosphere of the entire Shenxiao Sect is like this. They didn't fight because it was appointed by Daojun and out of respect for Daojun. Of course, the more important thing is that Pang Hong is so powerful that they can't compete. After all, the entire Shenxiao Sect is actually more like Pang Hong and Yu Zhenzi and others built up bit by bit. His prestige is unmatched and no one can compete with him.
But Pang Hong gave up. As long as he didn't actively recommend a strong man, and the other True Immortals didn't personally compete for it, then for the many cultivators in the Shenxiao Sect, at least every strong man at the level of the strongest was qualified. (End of this chapter)
