Chapter 499 The Burden of Reputation, Adding Sand
Although Pei Xuanjing is the national teacher of the Ming Dynasty, the leader of the Taoist sect, and the head of the Shenxiao Sect, he has his own direct subordinates, but this Taoist temple is a new force created by Pei Xuanjing. It has intersections with the Shenxiao Sect and the Ming Dynasty, but it can be regarded as a completely independent existence.
At this time, joining the Taoist temple can be completely the first part, and it also avoids the so-called new and old disputes. No one will exclude them. Here they are all equal.
The most important point is that there is also a peerless strong man to bless them. Getting the other party's guidance can be said to be a matter of killing several birds with one stone. How can it not make countless people excited.
"Can such an influence be achieved with just such means?" After listening to the master's explanation, Yu Yiyao's eyes flashed with a trace of shock.
Although she has maintained enough awe for Pei Xuanjing in her heart, when the master said the purpose behind the other party's actions, she was still shocked.
Is this the pattern and means of the world's number one person?
The other party's seemingly casual actions almost won the hearts of the world's warriors and cultivators, making many people yearn for it.
"Of course it's more than that!" Zhao Baiyang chuckled, but a trace of fear flashed in his eyes inadvertently.
He solemnly told his disciples: "Brother Pei can achieve such a huge influence, and he doesn't care about this method. In fact, many people understand this method, but he is the only one in the world who can do it."
Recruiting scattered cultivators from all over the world to join their ranks, providing them with protection, guiding their cultivation, and then gaining their submission, this is what the leaders of countless forces want to do.
However, there is a difference between inside and outside, and closeness and distance. This deeply rooted concept can never be removed in a short time.
Moreover, it is better to be safe than sorry. Recruiting such a person of unknown origin, rashly giving him an important task, and giving him excessive trust, once the other party rebels, the impact and damage caused are also unbearable for many forces.
Even if the Ming Dynasty continues to recruit strong people, it is difficult to have much effect. After all, it is difficult for both the Ming Dynasty and those scattered martial artists to reach mutual trust in a short period of time and truly trust each other.
However, if it is placed on Pei Xuanjing, then everything will not be a problem.
Although Pei Xuanjing has killed a lot along the way, and countless martial artists have died under his sword, everyone can say that Pei Xuanjing is murderous, but no one thinks that he is a person who goes back on his word.
He first pushed the Ming Dynasty to send troops outside the pass, and then gave a military city to the scattered martial artists, and then established a Taoist temple and launched a contribution point plan, so that countless martial artists can see the possibility of rising.
These things have long been known to the world, and his reputation has also penetrated into the hearts of countless martial artists. Even ordinary three-year-old children know that the current Ming Dynasty National Master, the leader of the Taoist sect, and the head of the Shenxiao Sect, Changsheng Zhenren, is a saint with great virtue and benevolence in his heart.
So when he did this, no one would doubt that Pei Xuanjing would break his promise. This is the most important endorsement method, which makes everyone trustworthy.
Similarly, his reputation for killing and his strong strength are also the guarantee that he can execute this matter, because many people know that if they really do something to betray the other party, they will inevitably be punished.
Not to mention letting such a strong man take action personally, he doesn't even need to speak. With just a glance, countless strong men will take action to please the other party to solve this matter.
With the attention of such a peerless strong man who dominates the world, no one will really be stupid enough to choose to betray the other party.
"This is also the point that I envy the other party the most." Zhao Baiyang said with a complicated expression.
He is not a vicious person, but he is definitely not a good person. His reputation in the world can only be said to be mixed. However, this is also because of this, which makes him extremely upset recently.
In the past, Zhao Baiyang wanted to overthrow the Ming Empire. He would do anything to achieve this goal. He didn't mind using any means that could achieve his goal.
As for the impact and consequences of this means, and the possible infamy, Zhao Baiyang didn't care at all. He didn't need the worship and praise of ordinary warriors, but only the respect and obedience of the other party.
But now, when Zhao Baiyang really wanted to develop the Outer Dao Alliance, he suddenly realized how bad the impact of his previous means was.
His Outer Dao Alliance is now expanding rapidly. Zhao Baiyang doesn't mind the joining of strong people. If these scattered martial artists are willing to join, he will definitely treat them equally. He can guarantee this, and those people in the Vajra Gate and the underworld can also testify to this.
Unfortunately, even if he made such a promise, the strong among the scattered martial artists in the world, as long as they are not desperate, as long as they have a little choice, they all rejected his invitation and were unwilling to join the Outer Dao Alliance.
No other reason, it's because of reputation.
What is a heretic?
Isn't it just an evil demon that is not tolerated by the righteous path?
Even some strong people are unwilling to bear such a reputation. After all, if it is really possible, no one wants to be born a wicked person or a bad person.
Yu Yiyao was silent, because as the one who is in charge of more practical affairs of the Heretic Alliance, she knows this best.
"But we are not the most unlucky. Now this demon sect is very lively!" Zhao Baiyang suddenly smiled, and the emotion on his face disappeared.
Sometimes I see someone who is more unlucky than me, and then I think about it and find that I am not that unlucky.
Among the various forces in the world today, many people think that the Outer Dao Alliance and the Demon Cult belong to the same category, but in fact, there is indeed some vague alliance between the two sides.
However, the alliance is an alliance, and the two sides cannot be really close. In addition to cooperation, there are also some frictions and competitions between the two sides.
Now that the Demon Cult has those things, Zhao Baiyang still has some gloating thoughts.
"You arrange some people to participate in the selection of teachers for the Taoist Academy." Zhao Baiyang instructed Yu Yiyao.
Since there is such an opportunity, how could he miss it? If he doesn't take the opportunity to plant some nails for the Taoist Academy, it will not be his character.
And in Zhao Baiyang's view, not only himself, but all the forces in the world, no matter how they feel about the Taoist Academy, will definitely take this opportunity to mix sand with the Taoist Academy's teaching.
Of course, Pei Xuanjing was not unaware of Zhao Baiyang's attempt to take advantage of the opportunity to place his own subordinates in the teaching of the Taoist temple that was about to be built, in order to sow trouble and add sand. He had also discussed this matter with Qingyangzi.
