Strange mountains and rivers

"Uncle Ding, I'm afraid it's up to a few elders to decide this matter. There has never been such an easy-to-get benefit. A spiritual mountain is of such great significance. If you want to get it without paying the price, I'm afraid it will be quite difficult."

Chen Huaisheng looked at the other party calmly: "Of course this possibility is not impossible, but it is very small. Even if a branch of the Nine Lotus Sect admires us very much and is willing to join us or merge with us like Lingyun Sect, but if If we don’t show enough strength, we won’t be able to achieve it.”

Chen Huaisheng's words also impressed Shang Jiuling and Zhu Fengbi.

If you want to get a Lingshan Mountain, you still have to own it. Whether it is this branch of the Nine Lotus Sect or the external forces that covet this Lingshan Mountain, I am afraid that they will not give up such a piece of fat to others easily. Only strength and iron blood can win.

"But I think it's worth it. Now that Baishimen's power is still expanding, I'm afraid we won't be able to return to Langling in the short term. Instead of fighting desperately with Baishimen to recapture Langshan Panshan, I thought maybe we could capture a certain spiritual mountain of Jiulian Sect." It’s our only chance to return to Da Zhao.”

Chen Huaisheng looked at Ding Zongshou: "This will be the case for at least ten or even twenty years. Unless we don't consider returning to Da Zhao for the time being to find a suitable foothold, we can only choose this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity."

Ding Zongshou was speechless.

He knew very well that returning to Zhao would be tempting to Shang and Zhu, but wouldn't it be the same to himself?

He also moved to Hebei from Jijun and was also eager to return to Zhao.

It can be said that no one in the sect can stop the desire to return to Great Zhao. Now that there is such an opportunity, who can refuse?

Jian Ding Zongshou fell silent, and Chen Huaisheng said again: "In addition to the spiritual mountains mentioned earlier, Master, Master, there are other suitable spiritual mountains. Even if there is only a slim chance, we can all give it a try. "

Shang Jiuling shook his head: "Taihe Mountain in Wan County and Chongyang Mountain in Ji County are the most suitable ones. Yuhan Sect has two Zifus, while Zilian Sect has only one Zifu, but Chongyang Mountain is closer to us. , is more suitable for us, but the Yuhan Sect is alienated from us..."

"The Zilian Sect is just as distant as us. The ones who are really closer to us are the Yuanhe Sect and the Xiyun Sect, and these are the possessions of the Tianyun Sect and the Dacheng Sect." Zhu Fengbi shook his head with some regret.

"Then Chongyang Mountain!" Chen Huaisheng suggested boldly: "It doesn't matter whether the relationship is estranged or not. I believe that the Yuhan Sect and Zihe Sect are also being targeted. We still have to fight for food from the tiger's mouth. A fight will inevitably happen. In a fierce battle, the two Purple Houses of the Yuhan Sect are actually beneficial to us. When they are faced with being devoured by tigers and wolves, we are at least their allies, creditors and shareholders. I believe they should make wise decisions. The disciples are more worried about us. If we join forces with the Yuhan Sect, can we withstand it, or force the enemies who covet Chongyang Mountain to retreat..."

Seemingly touched by Chen Huaisheng's words, Shang Jiuling looked at Zhu Fengbi and Ding Zongshou. Ding Zongshou hesitated, while Zhu Fengbi nodded slowly: "The one who covets Chongyang Mountain, if nothing unexpected happens, should be Qingguang Dao."

Qingguang Dao, the largest sect in Ji County, ranks seventeenth in the overall list and fifteenth in the sect list. It is rival to the Spark Sect, the second largest sect in Ji County, but the Spark Sect is located close to Wei County and Yunhe Mansion to the west. , and Qingguang Road is located in Laian Prefecture, Liyang Prefecture, where Chongyang Mountain is located, and the two prefectures are close to each other.

Moreover, the key point is that the Spark Sect is ranked seventeenth in the overall list and fourteenth in the sect list. The two parties are similar in strength and have always been incompatible.

"If it's Qingguang Dao, maybe this is our opportunity. Xinghuo Sect is absolutely unwilling to see Qingguang Dao annex Yuhan Sect, and they also took Chongyang Mountain, but their strength is still far behind Qingguang Dao, and they are completely powerless. We can only worry secretly if we interfere with Qingguang Dao's actions, but if we intervene, Xinghuo Sect would definitely rather let us succeed than see Qingguang Dao eat it..."

Ding Zongshou said coldly: "But the Xinghuo Sect will never help us..."

"If we want to conquer Chongyang Mountain, we must not count on anyone to help us. We can only rely on ourselves!" Chen Huaisheng immediately hit back: "I know what Master Ding wants to say. Our strength is not as good as Qingguang Dao, but if we add Yu Where is Hanzong?”

"Will the Yuhan Sect stand on our side?" Ding Zongshou sneered: "Huaisheng, you are too wishful thinking. Maybe the Yuhan Sect is counting on both us and Qingguang Dao to suffer losses."

"Yes, the Yuhan Sect definitely has this fantasy, but if we can show enough strength and let them understand that even if Qingguang Dao can't get them, the Xinghuo Sect will never let it survive. Now that the various branches of the Lotus Sect have been destroyed, maybe they will calm down and make wise decisions."

Chen Huaisheng's thinking is getting clearer and clearer, but he also knows that his judgment and opinions cannot influence Shang, Ding, and Zhu. If the three of them do not agree with his views, everything will be in vain.

He has said everything he needs to say, and as for their final decision, he can only wait.

Ding Zongshou looked at Shang Jiuling: "Brother Jiuling, the Qingguang Dao is stronger than us. They have five Zifus, and there are also many people at the highest level of foundation building. This battle..."

Shang Jiuling also hesitated and looked at Zhu Fengbi, "Fengbi, what do you think?"

Zhu Fengbi pondered and said: "It is unrealistic to think that we can get what we want without a fight, but can this fight achieve our goal?"

This is a contradiction. If you don't fight, there will be no chance at all. But if you fight, if you fail to succeed, your sacrifice may be in vain.

This is undoubtedly a difficult choice.

It can be seen that Ding Zongshou tends to be conservative, while Shang and Zhu are more inclined to take a chance, but they are still a little uncertain.

"Huaisheng, what do you think?" Shang Jiuling knew that he had to make his own decision in the end. Before making a decision, he wanted to hear Chen Huaisheng's opinion.

Unknowingly, he had put Chen Huaisheng on an equal footing and recognized his wisdom and strategy.

"Master, although Qingguang Dao's strength is slightly higher than ours, they may not dare to fight like we do, because there is a variable like Xinghuo Sect in Jijun. Qingguang Dao needs to consider whether they will be defeated after a fierce battle with us. The Xinghuo Sect is taking advantage of it, and the fishermen will benefit, but we don’t have so many scruples, so we lose. We will retreat to Hebei. If we can make it clear morally and win the approval and support of several large sects, maybe we can win this battle. There is greater certainty. When Qingguang Dao realizes our determination and will, maybe their fighting spirit will not be so strong..."

Chen Huaisheng's words finally made Shang Jiuling make up his mind.
