Chapter 950: Chapter 522 New Policy First Order_2 Chapter 950: Chapter 522 New Policy First Order_2 However, with only three Golden Core Cultivators in the Divine Wood Sect, there was a need to adapt and change the approach accordingly.
If Chu Zuoshu had brought up this proposal, the Twelve Divisions would have unanimously rejected it long ago.
A re town guard is only a qualification to enter the Twelve Divisions; how suddenly had their status been elevated to equal that of theirs!
With the rise in the authority of Town Guards, and The Three Great Halls remaining aloft, it ant that the powers of the Twelve Divisions were being reduced—a simple truth that was easily understandable.
Signed to oppose, but the current Sect Leader was a Nascent Soul Ancestor!
“I’ll strictly follow the Sect Leader’s decree.”
After hesitating for a while, and without any sign that Fu Zongjue was going to speak, the Foundation Establishnt Practitioners of the Twelve Divisions had no choice but to unanimously pass the proposal.
“Given that, the position of Town Guard becos extrely important. Apart from the Guard of the Founding Nation remaining unchanged, the other six nations will need to be re-examined.”
Chen Mobai did not disturb the Guard of the Founding Nation for two reasons.
First, the sect was located there; if the Town Guard were granted such authority, the friction with the Twelve Divisions would surely be plentiful, and it would ultimately be he, as Sect Leader, who’d be vexed.
Second, it was to avoid suspicions and prevent others from thinking that he was attempting to leverage this situation to elevate his disciple, Zhuo Ming.
“I was the Town Guard of Sky Country before and am willing to continue in this role, to protect the sect’s border and counter the Nanxuan sect.”
Zhou Wangshen promptly volunteered, though he originally wanted to choose Lei Nation because this country had been under the rule of the Divine Wood Sect for nearly a century and would be very easy to manage.
However, this would not showcase his superior skills in governing. Moreover, he would be unable to use the Nanxuan sect to acquire contributions and rits. Therefore, after so thought, he decided to stick with Sky Country, where he had laid so foundation over the past decade.
“I am fair and just in my actions. This matter also needs to give all Foundation Establishnt Cultivators in the sect a chance. Spread my proposal today to the other cultivators not in the sect. They, or even you all, if you have this intention, can participate in the election. One month later, all Foundation Establishnt votes shall decide the position of Town Guards for the six nations.”
Upon hearing Chen Mobai’s words, everyone present was startled.
“For this matter, the Sect Leader and Elder Fu can make the decision.”
Chu Zuoshu spoke out with so trepidation.
“If there is a tie, or sothing beyond the rules, I and Senior Brother Fu will make the final decision. For the rest, you all need to play your role.”
The confidence of the Golden Core Cultivators lay in their own cultivation levels, neither Chen Mobai nor Fu Zongjue really cared about these issues.
And to put it bluntly, if they wanted to support soone, just by saying the word, at least half of the Foundation Establishnt practitioners within the Divine Wood Sect would choose the person they ntioned.
Inside Shenmu Hall, the Foundation Establishnt practitioners had varied thoughts and left with indescribable expressions.
So heads of the Twelve Divisions even contemplated whether to give up their current positions to compete for the role of a nation’s Town Guard.
Any cultivator who had advanced to the Foundation Building Realm and held a high-ranking position was a shrewd thinker.
Because, they saw a glimr of hope for Core Formation in this.
After leaving Shenmu Hall, groups of familiar Foundation Establishnt Cultivators gathered at their usual places and began discussing this matter.
…
“Junior Brother, with your exceptional talent, focusing on cultivation would be more beneficial for the sect.”
After the sect conference concluded, only Chen Mobai and Fu Zongjue remained in Shenmu Hall, and the latter advised the forr.
“Don’t worry, Senior Brother. Affairs of the sect won’t affect my cultivation. Besides, once a genius like my nephew Chu erges from the next generation, I will willingly hand over the leadership of the sect.”
Chen Mobai’s words also made sense, as the Sect Leaders of the East Wilderness Major Sects were mostly at the peak of Foundation Establishnt, at the very least in the late phase of Foundation Establishnt.
If Zhou Wangshen were appointed, the unenlightened Loose Cultivators and minor powers would probably believe that their Divine Wood Sect had no successors.
“Since that’s the case, Sect affairs will be taken care of by Junior Brother. I will continue to delve into the Puppetry Technique of Liu Jia Mountain.”
For Fu Zongjue, the role of the Divine Wood Sect in aiding him was diminishing, and instead, it was their Golden Core Cultivators supporting and sustaining the sect.
So, it was good news to him that Chen Mobai was willing to handle things.
Soon after.
The news that Chu Zuoshu had stepped down and Chen Mobai had taken over as Sect Leader quickly spread throughout the Divine Wood Sect.
Many Qi Cultivating Disciples felt only one thing about this change, and that was more confidence when they left their abode.
Because their own Sect Leader was a Nascent Soul Ancestor.
The only one in the whole Eastern Wilderness!
For the Foundation Establishnt Practitioners of the Divine Wood Sect, however, the proposal to elect the next Sect Leader caused a great uproar.
“Yan Shidi, are you really going to compete for the position of Town Guard?”
Kou Canzhi, the head of the Body Forging Division, looked at the young Foundation Establishnt Cultivator before him with his bronze skin and resolute face, feeling both alard and delighted.
“Kou Shixiong, I want to reach Core Formation. Although staying here would give access to abundant Spirit Stone resources, at most, I would only end up outlasting you to take control of a division. Now that there’s a better path, I want to give it a try.”
The young man with bronze skin was nad Yan Yuanhao. He had just celebrated his eightieth birthday, and his cultivation level had reached the peak of the Foundation Establishnt Middle Stage.
His other identity was that of deputy head of the Body Forging Division.
In the recent battle between Rock Country and Nanxuan Sect, it was he who led the cultivators of the Body Forging Division on the bloodiest battlefield. On the brink of death, the image of Chen Mobai wielding Purple Electric Wild Thunder and transforming it into Sword Light to slay Nanxuan Jing had left a profound impression on him.
Having survived the battlefield and witnessed the power of Core Formation, Yan Yuanhao longed even more for such a realm.
Now with an openly fair competition, Yan Yuanhao was willing to give up his prospects within the Body Forging Division just to fight for a possibility.
Not just Yan Yuanhao, the deputy heads of the Talisman Making Departnt and the Formation Division had also made the sa decision.
As had the Inspection Envoys and Inspectors of The Three Great Halls, and so on.
Within the Divine Wood Sect, any Foundation Establishnt Practitioner who had conviction in reaching Core Formation was stirred to maximum enthusiasm by Chen Mobai’s first decree as the new Sect Leader.
“Well said, well said. Take care, Mu Shixiong. When the master summons , I will find an opportunity to speak…”
Liu Wenbo sent off another Sect Foundation Establishnt visitor, scratching his head helplessly.
He had not quite anticipated the significance of his status as Chen Mobai’s Eldest Disciple.
Lately, almost every Foundation Establishnt Practitioner in the Divine Wood Sect who did not know him had used the Heavenly Communication Device to send him ssages requesting to et.
It was the sa for Zhuo Ming.
However, Zhuo Ming didn’t like socializing, and since she was a Female Cultivator, many people refrained from visiting her directly.
It was different for Liu Wenbo. He managed the Little Nan Mountain Shop, and nearly everyone had his contact information. He found it difficult to refuse requests for etings, so ever since Chen Mobai beca Sect Leader, he had not had a single day of leisure.
Many people wanted to pledge their loyalty to Chen Mobai through Liu Wenbo, assuring that they would do whatever the Sect Leader asked if he appointed them as a Town Guard.
Unfortunately, Chen Mobai did not need such loyalty, and although Liu Wenbo was a simple and honest man, he would never actually bring such matters to Chen Mobai’s attention.
Seeing that his Heavenly Communication Device continued ringing endlessly, Liu Wenbo sighed, left a ssage for Chen Mobai, gathered his things, and made the excuse of managing the Little Nan Mountain Shop to also help his family plant rice back in Yun Country. He then took the Teleportation Array and left Giant Tree Ridge overnight.
The next day, Qi Rui, who ca to visit Liu Wenbo, saw the [Out] sign hanging on the door and looked troubled.
Three years ago, he had successfully reached Foundation Establishnt by taking a Foundation Building Pill left by Chen Mobai, and he had always wanted to thank him in person. Unfortunately, he had been outside the Sect on business prior to this.
After learning about Chen Mobai’s Core Formation and his succession as Sect Leader through the Sect’s ssages, Qi Rui was astonished. He completed his tasks as quickly as possible and hurried back to Giant Tree Ridge.
Chen Mobai’s current status was not the sa as before, and after finishing his tasks at the Spirit Treasure Pavilion, Qi Rui had headed straight for Liu Wenbo, hoping to request his assistance for an audience.
Unfortunately, Liu Wenbo had slipped away a step ahead.
Having no other choice, Qi Rui headed to Little Nan Mountain only to find that Zhuo Ming was also not there.
“Eh, isn’t this Junior Brother Qi?”
Just as Qi Rui was considering visiting Xi Jinghuo for information, a familiar voice called out to him.
He turned around to see Yan Jinye from the Alchemy Departnt.
They had t several tis when Chen Mobai had gathered everyone for wine tasting in the past.
“Are you here for Zhuo Shii? That’s really unfortunate; she was taken by Sect Master Chen to Black Cloud Mountain today.”
