"What do these words mean? Are you really going to put us all under jurisdiction?" Ancestor Jiuquan looked gloomy.

"I don't think so. It's very possible that he just wants to make a three-part agreement with me." Taoist Feijian opened his mouth and expressed his opinion. Because he had been working for Qiu Yan before, he had been regarded by other sects as being with Qiu Yan, and before After Qiu Yan took down the invading Desert Mo Zun and others, he communicated with the masters of several sects for a few days, and took the initiative to take over the position, saying that he would preside over the various sects' response to the invasion.

Later, a ship carrying people from the imperial court came over. It was inconvenient for Qiu Yan to come forward in person, so he asked Taoist Feihuang to represent him. Only then did Lin Dingtian's doubts arise.

Now, Fei Huan spoke again, but most of the others were puzzled.

"How can you see it?" Ye Yan asked directly.

"The key to my being suppressed this time is not the court, but the Marquis Dingguo, right?" Fei Jian faced the question and asked the same rhetorical question, but the meaning behind his words was that no one could refute it.

Fei Huan looked around the crowd and saw a monk with a higher seniority than him. He couldn't refute, but he looked unhappy, but he was not afraid. He was a proud and arrogant person with great ambitions, and he originally planned to use this product. Dan Conference, to realize some ambitions, but encountered Qiu Yan, so he had to give up, but the pride in his chest would not dissipate.

"That's it. What kind of person is Marquis Dingguo? How can we not see the trend in the future? Now that he is in power, he can suppress our sects and gangs, but if he leaves the court in the future, he will lose his status and responsibilities If he has no restrictions, will he still care about these things? Apart from anything else, now he is in charge of government affairs based on his status. It is his duty to suppress us, and it is not subject to cause and effect. But once he leaves his position, his title is just luck. Blessing does not involve responsibilities. If you conflict with us again, you will be entangled with cause and effect, so it will never be controlled forever..."

Listening to Fei Huan's words, everyone fell into deep thought, and many people nodded secretly.

"Once the Marquis of Dingguo leaves the court, what power will there be in the court that can restrain us? What about the enshrinement of the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies? It is an oath based on luck and cause and effect. Apportioned to each sect, the remaining There are not many left, so what does it matter? It is impossible that Marquis Dingguo has not considered this, so there must be arrangements, because even if we comply with the restrictions for a while, we will inevitably repeat them in the future, just like the original Five Marshes. The earth fell into chaos and decayed for thousands of years.”

After saying this, Taoist Feijian stopped. He knew that the grandmaster present was not a stupid person, so he said this. They should all know it by heart.

After a few breaths, after giving the simple instructions, the Jiuquan Patriarch said: "Okay. Since everything has been arranged, don't delay, otherwise we don't know what the Dingguo Hou will do, so we should go there as soon as possible. Bar."

After this thought fell, everyone else nodded in agreement, and then they saw all kinds of lights flashing. A flying sword comes out, a magic weapon appears. There are clouds gathering and a dark wind condensing. There was blood and ice crystals falling, all kinds of things with different magical powers. A famous master monk used different magical powers and just rushed out and disappeared into the horizon in the blink of an eye.

After these people left, the remaining monks dispersed without delay.

This time the alchemy meeting on the island was not an anticlimactic one, it had a lot of twists and turns, which left a deep impression on everyone.

Ye Yan was also among the people who stayed on the island. Although he was a master, his cultivation was not top-notch. This time, it was his teacher who represented their sect.

Afterwards, many monks on the island bid farewell to each other and used their magical powers to leave. The speed was naturally not as fast as those of the masters, but it was not too slow. After a few breaths, the island was gone, leaving only There are many traces and several formations.

These formations were left behind by Taoist monks on other nearby islands. They were also fighting for the foundation and the islands.

The Taoist sects are fighting for the island, not for the territory, but for the basic foundation of enlightenment. You must know that the sea is far away from the ground, so there is no spiritual energy, and it is difficult to generate spiritual veins. The destiny is unstable. Only the islands can survive. The more the islands they occupy, If there are many, they can be connected in series to form a larger-scale spiritual vein, which will facilitate the practice of the disciples in the sect and condense the corresponding realm more quickly.

"Although these formation diagrams are simple, they are all mixed with the destiny of the sect. This monk from Donghua Continent is indeed a sect in the lower realm. He cannot perfectly control the destiny of himself and the sect. Even I, who is in this world. It’s not as good as any Taoist sect you live in.”

After everyone had left, a figure suddenly appeared on the sea not far away. He was dressed in a white shirt, fluttering like a fairy, and filled with an aura of dust.

"The Marquis of Dingguo is quite interesting. He has the blessing of Fang Tianjun and controls that strange humanistic network. His combat power is far beyond imagination. He is a good seed, but he was born in the wrong place. In this land of Donghua, he is We cannot allow him to advance to the next level. We may even give him some warnings, but we can also give him guidance. If he is willing, he can fulfill his wishes in other continents. "

In a flash of thought, the man in white disappeared in the blink of an eye.

………………

Two days later, a group of monks led by Taoist Fei Jian arrived at a city outside the capital, but did not enter.

Originally, their speed was even faster, but because they had to discuss some matters and build up momentum, it took them two days. However, when they arrived, there were already soldiers and horses from the imperial court waiting there. The leader, for Li Kuo, Minister of Rites.

The position of the Minister of Rites has changed a lot recently. After Di Ai left, two people were replaced one after another. Now it has calmed down. Li Kuo and Lu Su are the Ministers. One of them represents Qiu Yan's will, and the other He is from a noble family.

"Fellow Taoist priests, I have been ordered by the Duke of Ding to wait here for a long time."

When they saw a monk who fell from the sky, some of the people in the group who greeted them inevitably showed signs of fear. They all knew that magical powers could be suppressed around the capital and within the capital, and they could not use them easily, but they also understood that , this kind of suppression is enough for ordinary monks, but once it is not suppressed, its own strength is revealed from the side.

But Li Kuo was not surprised at all. After saying a few words to Taoist Feijian, he led him into the path and headed straight towards the capital.

………………

"He actually asked him to invite the monk from outside. I don't know what his plan is. Are those monks really willing to be controlled by the court? Even if they are willing, the court does not have such power. In the end, if they are not careful, they will be The situation of focusing on customers is definitely not advisable.”

In the yamen of the Ministry of Rites, Lu Su, another minister, was having a secret conversation with someone. His mouth was full of emotion. When Qiu Yanzhen gave the order, the Taoist sect followed it. It can be said that it shocked the whole capital. I don't know how many people reacted to this. Qiu Yan's understanding was deeper, and he was a little more afraid.

"However, even the Taoist sect is selling out to the Marquis of Dingguo, but it is not necessarily a good thing." The person sitting opposite him has a simple face, is not young, and has a calm demeanor. He is Zheng Xuan, the visiting minister of Dali Temple. , "He has the reputation of being a soldier and a Taoist master. He has also created the classics of military strategists and Confucianism. He has a great reputation among the people. Behind him, there is a faint trace of Shintoism. Now even the Taoist sect has bowed its head. Such a person has great achievements. It’s not even enough to describe it, how could it end well in the end?”

After saying this, Lu Su nodded repeatedly. Just as he was about to speak, he was suddenly interrupted by a voice——

"Can't it end well? You two are worrying too much."

As soon as the voice came, both of them were shocked. They recognized the identity of the speaker. They couldn't help being frightened. They followed the sound and saw that it was Qiu Yan's face who had just stepped over the threshold.

"Ding...Ding Guohou!"

The two of them were completely unprepared for Qiu Yan's sudden appearance here. During this period, neither the concierge nor the servants had any news to report. Logically speaking, even if the Prime Minister wanted to come to a government office, he would have to be informed.

However, it is no longer time to pursue these issues. The two are worried about the previous conversation.

"I don't know how much he heard these words."

"Why is Qiu Yan here, and why did he come here at this time?"

Such questions filled the minds of the two of them, making it difficult for them not to care.

Qiu Yan seemed to have read through the minds of the two of them and said: "Don't think too much. Whatever you think and say is normal. It is all based on your own interests and positions. There is nothing wrong with the inferences you make. They are for the future. One possibility is that I won’t keep it in mind and punish you.”

"Huh~"

After taking a long breath, Lu Su didn't believe what Qiu Yan said, but there was no other way at the moment. He could only raise his hands and ask, "I wonder what the Marquis has to say when he comes here."

"It's not about seeing the teachings," Qiu Yan shook his head, "In the past, the imperial court did not ask about sects, but sects also need resources to cultivate immortality, and they also need manpower to seek Taoism. Therefore, they cannot escape from the ordinary world. They need property and land to support them, and they need young children and children to go to. The pure sect is not good at these things, so it needs to cooperate with the secular world, and the aristocratic family is the best choice. "

As he spoke, Qiu Yan's eyes were fixed on the two people in front of him, which put a heavy pressure on them, making them feel like they couldn't breathe.

"You see, these Taoist sects are not actually as carefree as they imagined. There are many things that those monks who are high above the sky and flying in the clouds don't understand. That's why they talk about the intervention of the imperial court. In fact, what I have to do is just Bring this family that secretly trades and cooperates with them into the law, and make a three-chapter agreement.”

Having said this, Qiu Yan looked at the two of them solemnly: "You need to let go of the interests in this gray area. After all, the aristocratic family has enjoyed too many conveniences provided by the court. Of course, this part of the court is not competing with the people. "Lee, in the future it will be a joint venture between the government and the people. Let me give you some peace of mind. I think you won't have any objections." (To be continued)
