Mu Lin Yuan pondered and said, "That depends on how high the Sect Hierarch’s expectations for Yemo are."
"How so?"
"If the Sect Hierarch has high expectations, then continue to strengthen the foundation and vital energy, preferably all the way to the King level. In this way, with accumulated potential and sudden progress, it is very likely that Yemo could make a forceful push to the Weapons Ranking after reaching the Monarch Level, becoming a mainstay in the Main Sect."
Yin Shen Palace responded indifferently, "Go on."
Mu Lin Yuan considered for a mont, his voice becoming sowhat tentative, "If you only want Yemo to advance quickly and the expectations are not too high, or if you plan to have him cooperate within our Yixin Sect in the future, you could also use the thod of increasing cultivation, directly pushing him to the General Level within two months or a month and a half. Although the foundation may be sowhat unstable, it will be sufficient, and with Yemo’s qualifications, reaching the Monarch Level steadily should pose no problem."
Yin Shen Palace shook his head repeatedly, "That won’t do! Old Mu, you are being a bit shortsighted."
He continued to shake his head, his mind continually weighing options.
How high are my expectations for Yemo?
To tell the truth, Yin Shen Palace held very high expectations for Yemo, especially after this breakthrough to the Great Grandmaster level, the expectations had risen even higher.
But there was a precondition to his expectations.
That is, Yemo’s loyalty to him.
If he is not loyal, then no matter how high his qualifications are, they are useless; it would be better to destroy him swiftly.
"One month, from Second level of Wuzhong to Innate Grandmaster, even with high qualifications, that is a speed achievable only by risking one’s life. It seems that after my previous admonition, this guy has increased his efforts significantly."
Thinking this, Yin Shen Palace took out the Communication Jade and sent a ssage to Yemo.
"Not bad, what reward would you want?"
After replying, he sat back in his chair, waiting, his fingers lightly tapping on his thigh, his gaze and expression shifting.
...
Fang Che looked at this ssage from Yin Shen Palace and couldn’t help but concentrate intensely.
Here it cos!
He’s here!
Not bad, what reward would you want.
These simple eight characters.
But the underlying aning, the true aning, had to be thoroughly understood.
If one misunderstood, responding carelessly could be fatal.
Yin Shen Palace’s moodiness was notorious in the entire Jianghu.
He definitely wasn’t asking what reward I wanted.
So what did Yin Shen Palace want?
Fang Che’s gaze was profound, his mind rapidly spinning. Yin Shen Palace had co to because of internal strife within the sect, with no one else available, hence reluctantly placing this burden on .
In other words, what Yin Shen Palace currently detested most was likely betrayal. Therefore, what he needed most was loyalty!
Loyalty!
After making up his mind, Fang Che thought it over several tis before finally picking up the Communication Jade and carefully crafting his ssage.
"Sect Hierarch, subordinate Yemo desires no reward. The Sect Hierarch’s kindness to the subordinate is as heavy as a mountain, repeatedly breaking protocols; although subordinate is young, I am ever grateful for the Sect Hierarch’s benevolence."
"There is a cause for every effect, a compensation for every kindness; the subordinate only wishes to wholeheartedly repay the Sect Hierarch. When the Sect Hierarch last ca to assign the task, with furrowed brows, the subordinate wasn’t sure he could break into the General Level, hence didn’t dare speak. But my heart was heavy, unsure of how to repay. The only way is through tireless effort."
"During this ti, spending four hours daily in the Spiritual Energy Gravity Cultivation Room, my only thoughts and desires have been the General Level!"
"The Sect Hierarch’s kindness to is as heavy as a mountain, if I cannot relieve the Sect Hierarch’s concerns, my sha would know no bounds. Currently seeking only one achievent, how can I not strive to my utmost for it."
Having written this, Fang Che looked over and changed ’seeking only one achievent’ to ’wanting only one achievent.’
The character ’seek’ might hurt Yin Shen Palace’s pride.
Then he continued to ssage: "I had already decided, if eventually unable to achieve this, then I would have to use Elixir Pills to quickly reach the General Level, leaving out ti to refine my martial arts skills to accomplish this task for the Sect Hierarch."
"Although I was fortunate enough to reach the Innate level within one month, whether I can beco a Martial General within two months is still uncertain. As of now, all I can do is continue to cultivate tirelessly, but rest assured, Sect Hierarch, when you need him, Yemo will beco a Martial General! I might regret it later, but right now my heart is resolute."
Upon completion, he took a look.
He deleted ’I might regret it later’.
But after thinking for a while, he added it back.
He sent the final ssage: "To the Sect Hierarch, in my heart, you are like a ntor. Being able to share the Sect Hierarch’s worries fills my heart with joy. Moreover, the benefits from increased personal strength are nurous; I revel in this. Please, Sect Hierarch, rest assured."
...
Yin Shen Palace watched as the ssages ca one after another.
His face and eyes increasingly filled with a smile.
From these successive reports, one could perceive Yemo’s excited mood.
There were sowhat inadequacies in his words.
But the loyalty, the youthful vigor, the gratitude expressed, almost seed to overflow.
What pleased Yin Shen Palace the most were the phrases ’I might regret it later, but right now my heart is resolute.’ and ’When the Sect Hierarch needs him, Yemo will definitely beco a Martial General!’
This ant that, whenever Yin Shen Palace needed, even if Yemo couldn’t achieve it, he would still make it happen. The price would be: at your command, I am willing to ruin my future and use Elixir Pills to quickly advance.
And he was clear about the consequences, thus saying, he might regret it later.
Very honest.
But more determined.
Putting down the Communication Jade, Yin Shen Palace, with a smile at his lips, said, "Yemo’s cultivation must not be rushed! Rather than participate in this Cultivating Gu to Beco a God Plan, it must not be rushed."
Mu Lin Yuan’s heart skipped a beat.
The Sect Hierarch’s attitude seed consistent with earlier but was definitely not the sa.
So determined.
"You go and select so Heavenly Treasures suitable for a Great Grandmaster from the Innate Realm to strengthen foundation and vital energy, choose about a dozen, and take them to Yemo. This kid complained to the Sect Hierarch once about running out of resources, we can’t really leave him empty-handed. It would appear miserly for our Yixin Sect."
Yin Shen Palace ordered.
"Yes."
Mu Lin Yuan harbored a grudge in his heart, thinking, what do you an by the Yixin Sect being stingy? You might as well say that you’re afraid the Infinite Scripture Shrine is stingy.
However, it had been many years since the Sect Hierarch had favored soone as exceptionally as Ye ng. That boy was truly an anomaly.
...
Consequently, Fang Che once again received a multitude of Heavenly Treasures, items to strengthen foundation and vital energy. Just as before, he used a portion himself, gave a small portion to Ye ng, and most of it he saved for Fang Qingyun.
He had already given quite a bit to Fang Qingyun, but since Fang Qingyun was currently out on a mission, he just had to save it for him.
As for Fang Che himself, these items were sowhat useful, but under the effect of the Infinite Scripture, the effectiveness of these Heavenly Treasures had beco extrely weak.
Now, only those he had never consud before could produce a slight effect.
...
Seven days later.
Fang Che once again ssaged the Infinite Scripture Shrine.
"Reporting to the Sect Hierarch, my points have run out, and I can no longer enter the Spiritual Energy Gravity Cultivation Room. Currently... at the Third Grade Innate. I need so rits..."
Upon receiving the ssage, the Infinite Scripture Shrine cursed with laughter, "You treat that dangerous place as if it were the outside world and live in there, those few points of yours are useless!"
But it indeed was a problem.
The only fast track available was the universally recognized, dangerous Baiyun Martial Academy’s Spiritual Energy Gravity Cultivation Room. There were also several other Martial Arts Academies’ secret realms and other Life and Death Trial Spaces.
Ye ng had reached the third grade in only seven days, a speed unprecedented in history.
If he ca out, the progress outside definitely wouldn’t be as rapid as inside.
But the credit system of the Baiyun Martial Academy was also rather troubling.
The Sect Hierarch tapped his fingers on the desk.
Calculating how to let Ye ng earn rits to get points.
He couldn’t help but feel a bit perturbed, thinking, "I’m the Sect Hierarch of the Yixin Sect, and now I’m actually thinking about contributing to the Baiyun Martial Academy and the Guardians, damn..."
But this had to be done.
Without points, Ye ng couldn’t enter the Spiritual Energy Gravity Cultivation Room; without entry, he couldn’t reach the General Level, not reaching General Level would affect the Cultivating Gu to Beco a God Plan; if soone from Ren Zhongyuan’s side achieves good results, his position in the eyes of the Main Sect’s higher-ups will rise.
If his position rises, I will be in danger.
So, damn... there’s no solution to this.
Huh?
People from Ren Zhongyuan’s side?
An inspiration suddenly struck the Infinite Scripture Shrine.
Would it be better to just wipe out my own Yixin Sect’s subdivision in Baiyun State?
Everyone below the Leader in the Baiyun State subdivision are Ren Zhongyuan’s people. It’s also a place where Ren Zhong Yuan has operated for a long ti.
Isn’t this just perfect?
Recently, as the Infinite Scripture Shrine was clearing out the Headquarters, he hadn’t been sure what to do about the lower ranks; Ren Zhong Yuan has been managing sect affairs for over two hundred years, and his influence was deeply entrenched.
His power spread in every direction, rooted deeply.
The Infinite Scripture Shrine had planned to parachute local leaders into various areas after the Main Sect were dealt with and then reorganize those areas. After all, these belonged to the Yixin Sect’s influence, and it would be a pity to destroy them outright.
Even though there would inevitably be push-back, it would ensure that local powers always existed.
But now, he changed his mind.
A fierce glint flashed in his eyes.
Why not sacrifice these people then?
After all... they are Ren Zhong Yuan’s people.
As for the future of Baiyun State’s subdivision, he could assign soone else to rebuild later, or maybe directly hand it over to Ye ng?
Hmm, Ye ng isn’t ready yet.
When he returns from the Cultivating Gu to Beco a God Plan, he should be about right.
If the Baiyun State subdivision is taken down, it could also gauge Ren Zhong Yuan’s reaction, intensify the conflict, and provoke him to make a move sooner.
Then he also had to start making arrangents imdiately.
The Infinite Scripture Shrine made up his mind.
He imdiately summoned Mu Lin Yuan.
"Elder Mu, there’s a task that I need you to undertake."
"Sect Hierarch, please command."
"At the Main Sect’s order, we were to create bloody chaos plans across the regions to incite disturbances. Our sect hasn’t done enough in this regard."
The Infinite Scripture Shrine spoke solemnly.
"Not enough?"
Mu Lin Yuan was perplexed.
During this period, the Yixin Sect had orchestrated nurous bloodbaths across various regions, countless officials from different nations assassinated, nurous villages destroyed.
The entire continent was in uproar, fraught with trepidation.
The Guardian Hall was running ragged, yet the effect was diocre.
It had already received comndation from the Main Sect, yet why was it still considered insufficient?
But if the Sect Hierarch said it wasn’t enough, then it wasn’t enough.
Mu Lin Yuan cautiously asked, "What does the Sect Hierarch suggest?"
"What’s the point of causing havoc in small towns?"
The Infinite Scripture Shrine said, "You go to the Baiyun State subdivision, convey my decree, breach the Baiyun Lake, flood two thousand miles; assassinate the Monarch of Baiyun State, Fan Anmin."
