Yin Shen Palace burst into laughter.
He simply couldn’t contain his joy.
Under normal circumstances, if a sub branch was successfully established, Yin Shen Palace might just take a glance and offer a tepid complint.
If this sub branch managed to infiltrate the Guardian Hall, gaining complete security, Yin Shen Palace would only give a modest reward and so encouragent: "Well done."
From then on, this sub branch would be classified as an important training unit.
In the future, anything that cos up, any benefits, would be considered primarily for them.
But that’s about it.
But now, circumstances are different, aren’t they?
To put it bluntly, it’s the life-or-death mont for the Yixin Sect!
The team sent by the Yixin Sect to set up the sub branch has been completely wiped out!
They’re about to be demoted!
Yin Shen Palace’s reputation is about to crumble, mocked by the leaders from the Yemo Sect and San Sheng Sect.
Yin Shen Palace had already resigned to the impending ridicule!
But right at this mont, Yemo delivered remarkable results!
He set up a super sub branch that stands out even among all the sub branches under Wei Wo Zheng Sect Headquarters!
This kind of sub branch, except for not having an Emperor Level expert stationed, could totally be terd as a sub hall in terms of hard power!
Although Yemo used so tricks... but throughout history, who has succeeded without thods?
Is success possible without using thods?
Moreover, Yemo, using several identities, maneuvered the situation by himself, manipulating everyone in the palm of his hand.
Such an operation is like walking a tightrope, yet executed spectacularly!
Additionally, using this operation, he ford connections with the headquarters! Even though they’re just peripheral figures, their cultivation levels aren’t high.
But... they’re still from the headquarters!
In the future, this ans resources, connections, and support!
And these, all belong to Yemo!
But... if they belong to Yemo, don’t they belong to ?
He’s my disciple, after all, isn’t it my good teaching?
"Beautiful! Absolutely beautiful!"
Yin Shen Palace, thrilled, paced back and forth with the Communication Jade in his hand, overwheld with an urge to share the joy.
However, he forcibly suppressed this impulse.
Cannot say!
This sub branch must not be revealed to outsiders!
Only a small circle should know; if exposed, it would surely lead to severe suppression by the Yemo Sect and others!
If this sub branch ultimately succeeds, I must report it to headquarters!
And it must be reported secretly to the headquarters!
To beco an important sub branch with a ’secret star’ classification!
After pondering, Yin Shen Palace started to reply.
"Very good! As expected, you did not disappoint by handling it yourself. Ensure you develop this sub branch according to your plans thoroughly!"
"Do not make a single mistake!"
"If soday these people from headquarters leave, I will imdiately assign experts from the sect to your Escort Agency for reinforcent!"
"It must be stable!"
Fang Che imdiately replied: "Master, right now, these people are intimidated by , so I have them swear by the Celestial Worm God that they will abide by the law and conduct business through legitimate channels here. I don’t trust the personnel you arrange for . They are a bunch of ruthless attackers; if anything happens, won’t it ruin your major events?"
Yin Shen Palace was enraged: "Nonsense! Aren’t my people stronger than the ones you casually train? Every one of them, when not exposed, isn’t each of them a good citizen?"
"They are perfectly law-abiding citizens!"
"Besides, if they dare misbehave and expose the sub branch affecting major events... could I spare them? You brat, do you actually look down on your master?"
Yin Shen Palace, in high spirits and brightened face, was enthusiastically furious.
"Master, it’s the disciple’s fault for misspeaking!"
"It’s okay if you misspoke, but you can’t ss up the tasks!"
Yin Shen Palace sternly admonished, "Especially with this sub branch, only success is permitted, not failure!"
"Yes, Master!"
"Report to imdiately upon any progress!"
"Yes."
"Inform imdiately of any difficulties!"
"Yes, Master!"
"This ti you’ve made a significant contribution!"
Yin Shen Palace couldn’t contain himself anymore.
"...Thank you, Master."
Communication ended.
Yin Shen Palace, brimming with a smile, walked out leisurely as if riding on clouds.
Every step was relaxed and carefree.
Lord i approached: "Oh, Yin Sect Leader, in a good mood?"
Yin Shen Palace smiled faintly: "Lord i, you know... Since there’s no resistance, why not let yourself be a bit happier?"
Lord i was taken aback and snickered: "Yin Sect Leader, are you talking about being raped?"
Yin Shen Palace: "?????"
When did I, for heaven’s sake, talk about sothing so disgusting with you?
He glared and said, "All my fifteen teams were wiped out, has Lord i co to laugh at ?"
Lord i skeptically looked at him: "I always feel like you old fox have sothing hidden from ."
"No, absolutely not, it’s truly a feeling of letting go of everything."
Yin Shen Palace sighed: "Lord i, fate! It’s truly fate. How hard have I worked over the years? How hard have the seniors of Yixin Sect worked? With great difficulty, we rushed up to the second level! Such difficulty!"
Lord i couldn’t help but empathize: "Indeed, years of hard work... Once elevated, but then demoted again, sigh."
Yin Shen Palace shot him a sideways glance and said blandly: "Yes, demoted again. Isn’t it fate? Otherwise, just don’t let us see hope, or once up, don’t let co down... sigh!"
"Truly is unbearable."
Lord i sympathetically said, "How about I keep you company for a drink tonight?"
"Then let’s have a drink."
Yin Shen Palace grimaced and said with a wry smile: "So now, I’m calm, I see things clearly, and there’s a feeling... of slight detachnt, no desire to do anything at all..."
He was retelling his recent sentints, not the current mood.
But such feelings are truly easy to resonate with.
Moreover, it makes people involuntarily want to comfort you.
For instance, if you’ve struck it rich, accomplished sothing major, and want to celebrate with a drink, those who drink with you often feel worse than if they had failed themselves.
Praising you becos like cutting themselves with a knife.
But when you fail and are drowning sorrows in drink, those who drink with you offer genuine, heartfelt consolation!
And they drink with joy, with a superior deanor.
Comforting you, while seeing your pain and mocking you.
For them, it truly is... one of life’s greatest monts.
So now Lord i genuinely comforted Yin Shen Palace.
"Yin Sect Leader, I understand your feelings, I’ve experienced it many tis myself, but how to put it... this type of thing is really normal, often the more you want sothing, the less you get it."
Lord i lanted: "The ups and downs, that’s the true essence of life."
Yin Shen Palace sorrowfully nodded: "Yes, indeed."
That night.
Yin Shen Palace prepared a table. Lord i and three mbers of the patrol group attended, with Mu Lin Yuan, Qian Sanjiang, and Hou Fang accompanying.
The entire evening, Yin Shen Palace sighed and lanted.
Lord i and others continuously comforted him.
Mu Lin Yuan and the other two felt odd, but kept drinking in silence.
The Sect Leader was known for keeping his emotions concealed; even if truly despondent, though his face might look grim, he wouldn’t lant so continually.
There must be reasons, and very likely they are good ones. We should not speak, lest we spoil the Sect Leader’s pretense.
"Second Level Sect... my dream."
Yin Shen Palace sighed deeply, drained his cup, feeling utterly dejected: "It’s really tough... I truly don’t know how the Golden Demon Sect and other First Level Sects maintain it, they truly have the capability."
"The Golden Demon Sect, well..."
Lord i, well-inford, began to expound.
Mu Lin Yuan and the other two exchanged glances.
The Sect Leader is already contemplating First Level Sects?
Oh...
Seems like there’s so great news.
With this thought.
All three drank with solemn expressions: "Cheers!"
"Cheers!"
"Sigh, really frustrating!"
"Indeed, just thinking about it is stifling."
"No choice, cheers!"
"Cheers!"
"Sect Leader, don’t take it to heart, opportunities will co, as long as we don’t give up, who knows what the future holds."
"Exactly, Sect Leader, this is destiny..."
The three old foxes played their roles perfectly, seamlessly complenting Yin Shen Palace.
Finally, after Lord i and others had their fill and were resting.
Mu Lin Yuan and the other two cheerfully approached Yin Shen Palace: "Sect Leader, any good news?"
Yin Shen Palace sighed deeply with a face full of gloom: "The Second Level Sect is about to be downgraded, I am about to beco a laughingstock worldwide, what good news could there be, sigh!"
Mu Lin Yuan and the other two suppressed their laughter: "Understood, we all understand, Sect Leader."
Yin Shen Palace turned, floated away: "If you understand, go to work. Sigh, so worried..."
All three exchanged glances and left happily.
"The Sect Leader is clearly overjoyed."
"Indeed, as if no one can see it."
"So we can relax a bit."
"Well said."
"These days when reorganizing the sect, it’s truly been exhausting; though with the patrol group here we can’t go out, the internal halls have been cleaned up by the Sect Leader, fewer people but considerably stronger."
"Hmm, in such terms, it’s actually good. Once the patrol group leaves, our Yixin Sect will elevate further. The Sect Leader has ambitious plans, reorganizing according to the standards of Second or even First Level Sects."
"Hall Masters are complaining incessantly; the Sect Leader even checks their cultivation progress."
"Indeed... But why is the Sect Leader so happy?"
"Haha... can’t you guess?"
"Hahaha... Probably got well pleased by the disciple..."
"I guess it’s more than just being pleased..."
