Chapter 427 Doing Big Things (23)
Kong Jue spent a long time trying to figure out this problem, but he couldn't figure it out. In the end, he could only give up thinking about it.
After Liuli took back the shuttle, Kong Jue took them to Anping Sect and stayed there.
Compared with before, the territory of Anping Sect has expanded three times.
The once small sect is gone, and a new sect has been erected. The entire Anping Sect looks quite imposing and completely different from before.
Since Lin Yuan came, Anping Sect, which was almost unknown before, is now known to everyone. The entire sect has become the de facto administrative center, and the status of Qingfeng Mingyue inside has also been improved a lot.
Qingfeng, who was sweeping the floor at the door, saw Kong Jue coming back, and immediately nodded and saluted: "Master Kong, you are back. Someone sent me excellent pears today. I tasted them and felt they were delicious, so I left three for you, froze a few more to make frozen pears, and sliced two to make pear juice. Now is the time to drink it."
After hearing Qingfeng's kind voice, Liuli looked at Kong Jue silently.
Although she didn't speak, her attitude was very clear: You still say you are not upright?
Kong Jue was so embarrassed by being stared at that he felt that he had never been so embarrassed in his life.
He hurriedly turned sideways and said to Qingfeng: "Okay, this is Miss Liuli from Tianxiang Sect. She will stay in your Anping Sect for a few days."
"... Master Kong, you always said we are from Anping Sect. Why did you change your name today? If you are kidnapped, just blink. I will write a suicide note in advance."
"... How did you jump to the suicide note?"
"I can't beat the one who kidnapped you, so why not write a suicide note? Write a marriage announcement to leave a legacy for yourself before you die?"
Mingyue, who was also cleaning the courtyard, hit him with a broom, causing Qingfeng to fall to the ground immediately.
Looking at the breeze on the ground, Kong Jue was silent for a while, and then said awkwardly: "As you can see, this kind of upright sect, our Benyuan Sect is disdainful to merge with it."
"Indeed, I feel that Master Kong is more upright than the upright sect."
"I...sigh."
Inviting Liuli to enter Anping Sect, Liuli looked at this place curiously, feeling a little proud in her heart.
Although she was not favored in Tianxiang Sect, she also had her own mountain, and the area of the mountain was not small.
There were many disciples under her name, and their daily work was to serve her, help her mix spices, and then use the spices to practice.
Compared with her own mountain, Anping Sect was like a small shabby house, which made her feel a little happy.
Sitting down by the stove in the study, she watched Kong Jue hook his fingers, and the boiling pear juice on the stove flew out automatically, and then fell into the cup condensed by magic power.
Staring at the translucent cup, Liuli's face was solemn. After a while, he said, "The Art of All Things."
"You have a good eye." Kong Jue nodded in appreciation. "The original Senluo Wanxiang Art was very powerful. Our Benyuan Sect disassembled the Wanxiang Art from it. Now it has become a necessary art for every disciple of Benyuan Sect. Although it can't create people in the void, it is also very convenient in daily life."
"Our Tianxiang Sect has also obtained some arts. We can exchange them if we have the chance. It's a pity that we can only use the pseudo-heavenly way outside the domain, and there is no effect of heaven rewarding hard work, so it is quite troublesome to practice."
Following this topic, the two sides exchanged their experience of the Senluo Wanxiang Art, and both gained something.
Liuli originally wanted to ask about her future arrangements, but found that Kong Jue did not lead the topic in this direction, so he wisely chose to remain silent.
Resources outside the domain are scarce, and everyone must learn to observe words and expressions to avoid being found flaws.
In this environment, realm determines status, and status determines the allocation of resources, which leads to everyone in the out-of-region sects having to bully the lower and flatter the upper, and then get the pitiful resources from them.
For resources, Liuli, even as the daughter of the sect master, needs to give it a try and voluntarily come to the "terrifying" Jiuzhou in their mouths.
She is nominally an envoy of Tianxiang Sect, but in fact she is more like a hostage, a chess piece used by Tianxiang Sect for speculation.
It is a pity that Liuli knows this, and her mother also knows that she knows this, but she still needs to voluntarily join the game, enter Jiuzhou, and become part of Tianxiang Sect's political speculation in order to obtain resources.
Through her observation of Kong Jue, she knows that Kong Jue should be just one of the people in charge here, but he does not play a decisive role.
Thinking of this, she picked up the cup, drank a sip of pear water, and then widened her eyes in surprise.
"It tastes good."
"Indeed." Kong Jue said, "Miss Liuli, are there no pears outside the domain?"
Looking at Kong Jue's smirk, Liuli knew that he was testing her, but there was no need to deliberately hide such things.
Putting down the cup, she said openly: "There are not enough resources outside the domain, so everything needs to be simple. We have pears, but most of the time they need to serve the practice, and we can't be as extravagant as Jiuzhou."
Kong Jue glanced at Liuli and felt that she always had a sense of pride when she spoke.
This feeling is like a relative who ran away and came back to visit, and his impression of Jiuzhou is still the previous chaos and disorder.
Although she may not realize it herself, there is always a hidden pride in Liuli's tone, which makes her unconsciously bring some high-handed feeling.
But this is caused by the other party's living environment, and has nothing to do with her own temperament.
Drinking pear juice, Kong Jue probably knew why Daoxuan asked the other party to come here.
Mo City is a city under reconstruction. Now there is a mixture of good and evil in this city. All forces are stationed here, integrating the customs of various places.
This place will not be too righteous, nor will it be too devilish. The entire sect is under construction and can fully demonstrate the current characteristics of Kyushu.
The sects outside the territory have been away from Kyushu for too long, so coming here is an opportunity for them to get in touch with Kyushu again. Through here, they can slowly become familiar with Kyushu's situation, and then decide whether to integrate into Kyushu.
It's normal for Daoxuan to think this way, and it's very logical.
However, it was a bit surprising to hear that Lin Yuan had the same idea at the beginning and made a similar proposal without communicating with Daoxuan.
Unexpectedly, Lin Yuan is as well-organized as Daoxuan. It seems that this person is not only good at playing games, but also has a good vision of the overall situation.
Should we look for an opportunity to persuade him again, let him rebel into the Demon Sect, and then replace him with the Holy King?
However, the Holy King has been communicating with "Jiuzhou" recently, and he should be planning big events. Such a Holy King who works hard to govern is quite good, but it would not be good to replace him.
Melancholy.
With a long sigh, Kong Jue felt that he had a lot of opportunities recently, and all kinds of good things were happening one after another.
Although there is no open dispute, the secret struggle has begun. I hope that the Demon Sect can cheer up soon and start doing big things.
