After Gu An and Luo Zhenhai voiced their questions, the other Elders also began to ask about their own doubts, wondering if there were more secrets to be revealed.
Sect Leader Liu Xuan had gathered all the figures at the Inner Refining Grandmaster Level from the Cyan Yuan Sect in the Cyan Jade Hall precisely to explain the situation and ensure everyone was prepared.
Due to the matters concerning the No-Life Evil Cult and the Great Zhou Imperial Family, so of the Cyan Yuan Sect’s plans had to change. Although the Cyan Yuan Sect would not participate in the succession of imperial power, it did not an the Sect was indifferent.
A change in imperial power was also a ti of greatest political upheaval. The peace in the various states would be shattered, and in such a situation, it was natural to guard against other forces with malicious intent.
Take the Celestial Sword Sect, for example. They had previously coveted the Cyan Yuan Sect’s influence in Qing State and tried to expand their own power there. Although they failed, the Celestial Sword Sect’s ambition would not be extinguished so easily.
This was not unique to the Cyan Yuan Sect; other powers operated the sa way.
For instance, when the Cyan Yuan Sect dealt with the No-Life Evil Cult, it wasn’t just because the Evil Cult threatened the Sect. Another reason was to seize Cultivation Resources from them. For the Cyan Yuan Sect, the more of these resources, the better.
No one ever complained about having too many resources; they only ever lanted having too few Cultivation Resources.
During the transition of imperial power, the Cyan Yuan Sect not only had to weather the storm safely but also seize more benefits from the chaos. This was Sect Leader Liu Xuan’s goal and the reason he had summoned so many Elders.
"I have answered everyone’s questions. Now, I will announce the decision made in consultation with the three Supre Elders. This will also concern your upcoming assignnts."
Sect Leader Liu Xuan’s gaze swept over everyone present, his expression turning serious. This signaled that what he was about to say was of utmost importance, concerning the future developnt of the Cyan Yuan Sect and the breakthrough to the Bone Marrow Cleansing Grandmaster realm. He needed these people to take his words to heart.
Within the Cyan Yuan Sect, the Sect Leader’s word was not absolute law. However, now that the Sect Leader had reached an agreent with the three Supre Elders, the matter was completely settled and would almost certainly not be changed. At this point, it was less a notification and more an order.
Under normal circumstances in the Cyan Yuan Sect, if Sect Leader Liu Xuan wanted to make any arrangents, he would need the approval of a portion of the powerful Hall Masters. His word was not law. Of course, usually, as long as his arrangents did not go against the Sect’s developnt or harm the interests of the majority, no one would object.
This was the case with previous matters, such as dealing with the Three Major Sects and the No-Life Evil Cult.
However, since Liu Xuan’s actions had the approval of the three Supre Elders, he could bypass this step and finalize the decision directly.
Upon hearing this, Gu An, Lü Zhenghai, and the others frowned slightly but said nothing more.
These Supre Elders were not just their seniors, but figures on the level of their own masters or martial uncles. Naturally, they would not raise any major objections.
"Although the Cyan Yuan Sect will not participate in the change of imperial power, that doesn’t an we will do nothing."
"We must send people into White Jade City to stay aware of the latest developnts there. This will give us more ti to react."
"This matter will be handed to Elder Zhao. You will need to enter the capital discreetly. I will discuss the specific arrangents with you later. Brocade City will require Elder Xu to go..."
Sect Leader Liu Xuan directly assigned many Inner Master Elders to leave the Cyan Yuan Sect and guard various important locations. So would go openly, while others needed to travel in secret. The purpose was to prevent forces from other states from invading Qing State. These locations were the most vulnerable to invasion, but they also had convenient transportation and a high volu of intelligence that could be sent back to the Cyan Yuan Sect imdiately.
If reinforcents were needed, they could also be dispatched at a mont’s notice.
But Sect Leader Liu Xuan’s ambitions were not limited to Qing State. He also arranged for people to secretly infiltrate other states, ready to profit from any opportunities that arose.
He wasn’t just thinking about defending the Cyan Yuan Sect’s foundation; he wanted to expand and strengthen it. Naturally, this ambition of Liu Xuan’s had the full support of the three Supre Elders.
He also arranged for people to investigate various locations rumored to hold opportunities for breaking through to beco a Bone Marrow Cleansing Grandmaster. If their existence was confird, he would send people to contend for them.
If the Cyan Yuan Sect could produce a Grandmaster expert, not only could they stabilize their position amidst the chaos, but they could also use the opportunity to rise to a new level.
Chaos, aside from being trouble, was also a great opportunity.
In other words, chaos itself was a kind of opportunity. Those who could seize it would soar to the heavens, while those who couldn’t might fall into a quagmire, unable to escape.
Although the three Supre Elders were old, if they could obtain an opportunity to break through to the Grandmaster realm, not only would their own strength increase, but their Lifespan would also be extended by sixty years. They would naturally not refuse Liu Xuan’s request. When it ca to breaking through to beco a Grandmaster, their attitudes were all the sa.
Whether for public or private reasons, it was beneficial to the Cyan Yuan Sect.
Of the Cyan Yuan Sect’s twenty-so Elders at the Inner Refining Grandmaster Level, half were sent out. Most of those who remained in the Cyan Yuan Sect were the powerful Hall Masters and other key figures.
Ordinarily, experts of the Elder Level would remain within the Cyan Yuan Sect to guard it unless a major event occurred. Yet now, so many were being deployed.
Besides self-preservation, it was to contend for opportunities, which was also in line with the Cyan Yuan Sect’s principle for cultivating disciples: ’to strive.’
After Sect Leader Liu Xuan finished speaking, he looked at the crowd.
This was an arrangent made by the Sect Leader and the three Supre Elders, so naturally, no one objected. Although there was a hint of self-interest involved, it was all for the sake of the Cyan Yuan Sect gaining a Bone Marrow Cleansing Grandmaster expert. No one dared to voice any dissent.
At the very least, one thing was certain: if the Cyan Yuan Sect had a Bone Marrow Cleansing Grandmaster, then even with a change in imperial power, as long as they did not get involved in the fight for the throne, no one would dare challenge their hegemonic status.
Otherwise, the Xuanqing Palace served as a cautionary tale.
After Liu Xuan finished making the arrangents, the assembled Elders left one after another to prepare for their departure from the Cyan Yuan Sect and to later discuss the specific details of their assignnts with Sect Leader Liu Xuan.
With so many people present, it was naturally not a suitable ti for detailed conversation.
For instance, those heading to White Jade City and other states certainly didn’t want others to know the details of their journey, such as their routes.
If soone were to sabotage them, it would be very dangerous.
These Elders and Hall Masters of the Cyan Yuan Sect appeared amicable, but their relationships with one another were not so harmonious. So even held grudges against each other, so it was necessary to be wary of them.
Sect Leader Liu Xuan was aware of this, which was why he planned to speak with them individually.
In a short while, only Sect Leader Liu Xuan and the three Supre Elders remained in the Cyan Jade Hall.
"Regarding this matter, although we stand with you, it is also because we hope to use this chance to break through to beco a Bone Marrow Cleansing Grandmaster and to allow the Cyan Yuan Sect to develop further."
"If it proves impossible, giving up on the Bone Marrow Cleansing Spirit Fruit is not a great loss. You are younger than us. As long as you are alive, there will be other opportunities to break through."
The tall, thin Supre Elder looked at Sect Leader Liu Xuan and spoke.
The reason they had agreed to Liu Xuan’s plan this ti, aside from for the developnt of the Cyan Yuan Sect, was also due to so personal interest. Opportunities to break through to the Grandmaster realm were not so easily obtained. However, Sect Leader Liu Xuan had heard news of a Bone Marrow Cleansing Spirit Fruit’s whereabouts, and that was the main ingredient for Refining the Bone Marrow Cleansing Pill.
If they could obtain the Bone Marrow Cleansing Spirit Fruit, they would have a chance to break through to the Bone Marrow Cleansing Grandmaster Realm. Such an opportunity was rare. However, obtaining the Bone Marrow Cleansing Spirit Fruit would not be easy, which was why a contingent of Inner Refining Elders was being sent to confirm the news and then contend for it.
"I will heed the Supre Elder’s teachings."
Liu Xuan nodded earnestly after listening. Despite his words, the determined look in his eyes never faded.
