Chapter 408 Both sides’ plans
No matter what they think in their hearts, everyone in the Jianji Sect is still very concerned and attaches great importance to the people from the Yunjian Sect. If the people from the Yunjian Sect hadn't suddenly arrived, there's no telling how today's events would have ended. It's scary to think about it.
Lu Shi was deep inside. Because the aura of the golden elixir was revealed to the outside, the senior officials of Jianji Sect did not pay attention. Those who communicated with the senior officials of Jianji Sect were Bai Xiuyuan and other powerful Nascent Souls. Lu Shi took advantage of this. Opportunity to observe the situation while making mental comparisons.
The conversation between the two parties revolved around their relationship from the very beginning. Both parties deliberately avoided the important and focused on the trivial and wanted to get closer to each other first.
The Jianji Sect was more anxious, and one person said directly: "Strictly speaking, your family and I are one family. We must communicate more in the future."
"This is natural, and I also have this intention."
Bai Xiuyuan naturally followed the words, but then changed his subject: "I just don't know if doing this will bring any danger to Yunjian Sect."
There are some things that need not be said explicitly. Both sides understand that Jianji Sect is currently under great external pressure and is in urgent need of help from Yunjian Sect. Bai Xiuyuan's words are clearly meant to be beneficial.
This was something Lu Shi and Bai Xiuyuan had discussed in advance. They couldn't express their feelings right away. They had to make Jianji Sect anxious. If nothing important happens, then naturally figure it out slowly and establish a good relationship with Jianji Sect first.
But the situation now was unusual, so there was no need to be so cautious. Bai Xiuyuan directly put pressure on him.
As expected, just after saying these words, the faces of everyone in the Jianji Sect changed slightly.
Lu Shi secretly scanned the audience and found that some people were frowning and some had cold eyes, but most of them still had solemn expressions on their faces.
Taoist Jianhe said in a deep voice: "People of the Ming Dynasty don't tell secret words. If your sect is willing to help our Jianji Sect overcome this crisis, our Jianji Sect is willing to form a brotherly alliance with your sect!"
"This matter is very serious. We need to go back and discuss it carefully."
Lu Shi did not agree directly. The name of a brotherly alliance was not what he wanted. To say so was an obvious rejection.
Taoist Jianhe frowned and his expression became ugly.
In his opinion, Bai Xiuyuan was obviously trying to take advantage of the situation.
"Indeed, I was too abrupt."
But the reality did not allow him to get angry, so he could only accept it.
There was no obvious result from this discussion, but it was not the Yunjian Sect that suffered, so it was not them who should be anxious.
When Lu Shi saw this, he already had a plan in mind, so he glanced at Li Wuyuan. The latter pondered slightly, and then said: "Why don't you fellow disciples be more sincere? I know that you guys from the Yunjian Sect are not greedy people. General help is what our Jianji Sect urgently needs. There are some things that both parties know very well, so it would be better to just talk them out clearly to avoid causing any inappropriate conflicts. That would not be a good idea."
Upon hearing this, Taoist Jianhe glanced at Li Wuyuan in surprise, and then said, "Wuyuan, what do you think?"
Li Wuyuan nodded slightly and then said: "In my opinion, just give Yunyu Cave Heaven to Yunjian Sect."
"No!"
"no!"
"How can this be?"
Sure enough, as soon as he finished speaking, he was immediately met with opposition. Not to mention the public's anger, it was not much better.
But Li Wuyuan said again: "Yunjian Sect was born in Yunyu Cave Heaven, and the two are the same family, everyone! If this connection is broken, the fellow Taoists of Yunjian Sect will have no reason to help me, Jianji Sect. Can’t you see this clearly?”
Taoist Jianhe took a deep look at Li Wuyuan, took a deep breath, then looked at Bai Xiuyuan, and asked in a deep voice: "What do you think, fellow Taoist?"
"Ancestor!"
"Uncle Master!?"
Everyone in the Jianji Sect did not expect Taoist Jianhe to be so decisive. It was really unexpected.
That was one of the many secret realms of the Jianji Sect, and it was the accumulation of the Jianji Sect’s foundation. If it were to be given away like this, it would really be unreasonable.
But what Li Wuyuan said was not totally unreasonable. If Yunjian Sect just stood by and watched, they really wouldn't have much else to do. The only connection between the two sides is the Yunyu Cave. Other than that, Yunjian Sect and Jianji Sect have no connection whatsoever.
But Li Wuyuan said again: "Fellow Daoist Bai, if our Jianji Sect is willing to hand over Yunyu Cave Heaven to your sect, will your sect be willing to let Yunyu Cave Heaven not leave my Jianji Sect?"
Taoist Jianhe's expression changed slightly when he heard this, and the others were also a little surprised. After thinking about it, they felt that Li Wuyuan's proposal was indeed quite clever.
It doesn't matter that Yunjian Sect has nothing to do with Jianji Sect. As long as Yunyu Dongtian is accepted, doesn't it have something to do with Jianji Sect? The relationship is so deep that it can even be said to be a family!
With this as a breakthrough, the rest will be easy to talk about.
Bai Xiuyuan frowned and pondered for a while, then asked: "It is true that my Yunjian Sect was born in Yunyu Dongtian, and it is true that this Yunyu Dongtian is useful to my Yunjian Sect, but I dare to ask my friend, if Yunyu Dongtian does not leave your sect, How should we define the relationship between your two sects and mine?"
This question was asked by Li Wuyuan, but the latter looked at Taoist Jianhe, obviously wanting him to make up his mind.
Taoist Jianhe was very straightforward and said: "In this case, you and I can be said to be as close as one family. We can naturally use Yunyu Cave Sky as the basis to cooperate."
Bai Xiuyuan did not agree immediately, and then turned to look at the other people who came with him. After a brief exchange of eyes, he smiled and said: "This matter is of great importance. We still need to discuss it carefully."
"That's how it should be."
Li Wuyuan spoke first.
Taoist Jianhe also nodded when he heard this: "I would also like to ask fellow Taoists to stay in our Jianji Sect for a few days so that I can show my friendship as a landlord."
"Easy to say, easy to say, I've been waiting for a long time."
At this point, both parties knew that there was no way to continue talking about the matter, so naturally there was no further entanglement, and the atmosphere suddenly became normal.
Another exchange ensued. Both parties deliberately avoided the matter just now, and the atmosphere became more harmonious.
Finally, Taoist Master Jianhe said: "Fellow Taoists from your noble sect, you can stay at Yunyu Cave Sky for the next few days. Mr. Xu Qingzi, please treat all distinguished guests well on my behalf."
"Yes, my disciple will definitely be attentive."
Xu Qingzi naturally agreed.
The two parties parted ways.
Li Wuyuan stayed, and after everyone from the Yunjian Sect left, he hurriedly said: "Uncle Master, we must make the Yunjian Sect agree. My nephew has made quite a discovery in the Yunjian Sect these days. Then Yunjian Sect’s foundation is stronger than we imagined!”
Taoist Jianhe looked slightly stern when he heard this.
"Tell me carefully."
Li Wuyuan told the countermeasures that he had discussed with Lu Shi in advance, and gave a description of Yunjian Sect. Naturally, he concealed part of it, but just hearing that Yunjian Sect had two or three hundred thousand disciples made everyone present. People were shocked.
"Really?"
"How come there are so many disciples?"
"Can the Yunjian Sect afford to support so many disciples?"
Li Wuyuan solemnly said: "Don't underestimate the Yunjian Sect. Although the Yunjian Sect only occupies a corner of the Guiyuan Domain, that corner is full of treasures, with huge output and extraordinary heritage. !”
"In this way, Yunjian Sect can be regarded as the overlord." Someone nodded.
Taoist Jianhe thought for a while and nodded slightly: "I already know about this, Wuyuan, you go to Yunyu Cave Sky, communicate with them more these days, and be sure to get their consent!"
"Master..."
Someone wanted to say something, but was interrupted by Taoist Jianhe who raised his hand.
"It's just a secret realm. If we can use this to pull the Yunjian Sect onto the chariot, it's already a good deal."
