Chapter 92 Chi You's Compromise
Chapter 92 Chi You's Compromise
Hearing Jiu Feng's answer, Chi You still asked unwillingly, "But behind Gongsun Xuanyuan stands the Chan Sect."
That is a great religion of sages!
Would a saint allow such a thing to happen?
Upon hearing this, Jiufeng's heart stirred.
Chi You's actions this time were a bit too hasty.
He was truly accumulating merit entirely for the sake of the Wu clan.
Or is it that he only has his eye on the position of Emperor?
Quasi-Saint Perfection?
That's really tempting!
That's a realm comparable to the Twelve Ancestral Witches.
I dare not think about it any further!
The thoughtful Jiu Feng simply kept this thought to herself.
He then replied, "Brother Chi You is overthinking it!"
If things really come to that point, it will actually be to our advantage.
Raising the banner now would actually be disadvantageous for us.
After all, we were the first to raise the banner, which naturally garnered responses from some human tribes.
but.
This undoubtedly puts us in the open.
The first thing we need to face is the pressure from the Chan sect.
The abilities of a sage are beyond our current capabilities to contend with.
If the Twelve Ancestral Witches were still alive, we would have nothing to worry about.
Things are different now!
We can only wait for the anti-Gongsun Xuanyuan movement to take shape.
Only then can we act in accordance with the trend.
By then, it won't just be a matter for our family anymore.
It's a problem for the entire human race.
No matter how powerful that sage of the Chan Sect is, he cannot personally wipe out the entire human race, can he?
Only when it reaches that point can everything unfold within the human race.
Under the rules of internal strife, reinforcements can be called in.
However, it was no longer appropriate for the sage to intervene.
After all, they want to accumulate merit.
"It's not just our Wu clan, but also a whole host of rogue cultivators from the primordial world."
Upon hearing Jiu Feng mention rogue cultivators, Chi You's expression changed.
A rogue cultivator?
That's a huge group.
Moreover, those with exceptionally high cultivation levels are emerging one after another.
Chi You then said, "That's exactly right!"
We should seize this opportunity to act decisively and decisively!
Otherwise, wait until those rogue cultivators join forces with the Chan Sect cultivators.
Our chances of success will be even slimmer.
Hearing Chi You's seemingly reasonable words, Jiu Feng was now completely convinced.
Chi You's motives this time are impure!
Whether he used the Wu tribe as a stepping stone to his success is still unknown.
but.
His purpose was certainly no longer simply to accumulate merit for the witch clan.
However, this matter cannot be made public.
After all, they've already boarded the pirate ship, and it's too late to back out now.
All we can do now is to be wary of Chi You.
Furthermore, we should try our best to steer events in a direction favorable to the Wu tribe.
If things truly reach a point where they are beyond repair, then we can only report to the Ancestral Witch of Xuanming and the Goddess of Peace.
With these two involved, one of them was able to suppress Chi You and prevent the situation from spiraling out of control.
It even burdens the witch clan with new karma.
As for the other Consort Pingxin, she was someone who could only be alarmed when facing a sage.
With Consort Pingxin intervening, things always seem to take a turn for the better.
However, if things get to that point, the price the Wu tribe will have to pay will be no small matter.
Therefore, every bit of caution she takes now is a loss for the Wu tribe.
Thinking of this, Jiufeng said in a deep voice, "Brother Chiyou!"
What you described is not impossible.
After all, Gongsun Xuanyuan was the successor designated by Shennong.
They have a natural advantage.
But precisely because of this, continuing to wait and see how the situation develops is the most advantageous course of action for us.
The internal problems of the human race have already been discussed, so I won't go into detail again.
Now let's talk about the issue of independent cultivators.
When everyone was in Chendu, they must have heard Guang Chengzi's words.
Those words, which almost implied that they were in charge of assisting the human emperor, clearly expressed the intentions of the Chan Sect.
The Chan Sect is not the Jie Sect, and it will not tolerate independent cultivators competing fairly with them for the merit of assisting the Human Emperor.
In other words, the Chan Sect wants to seize most of the merits.
They might even give some merit to independent practitioners depending on their mood.
Having already tasted the bitterness of snatching food from the mouths of the Jie Sect, would the rogue cultivators agree to the charity-like gifts from the Chan Sect cultivators?
If the sage of the Chan Sect were to come in person, this attitude might not be a big deal.
but.
With Guang Chengzi alone?
What gives him the right?
Based solely on the title of a disciple of a saint?
He expressed an inappropriate attitude in an unsuitable capacity.
It will definitely provoke a countermeasure.
Moreover, this countermeasure has already arrived.
The rumors that spread throughout Chendu in almost a day, do you think anyone would believe it?
At that time, the disciples of the Jie Sect had already left, so the Chan Sect could not have spread rumors about themselves.
And yet we did nothing.
The only ones capable of doing this are those independent cultivators.
I'm saying this for no other reason than...
I just want to tell everyone to keep waiting.
This is the measure that best suits our conditions.
The conflict between the Chan Sect's cultivators and the independent cultivators is irreconcilable.
After all, the cultivators of the Chan Sect would not easily compromise.
Therefore, Guang Chengzi will not make any statement.
If we keep waiting, the rogue cultivators will definitely cause trouble with the Chan Sect.
Even if they don't, they won't openly make things difficult for the Chan Sect cultivators.
Even sabotage done in secret is already very advantageous to us.
Even if they don't, they won't openly make things difficult for the Chan Sect cultivators.
Even sabotage done in secret is already very advantageous to us.
A mere rumor can create an opportunity for us.
What if their conflict escalates further?
Those independent cultivators are no pushovers.
Rumors are just one of their usual tactics.
Or it could be a warning to the monks of the Chan sect.
The measures taken from now on will only become more severe.
Upon hearing Jiu Feng's analysis, all the leaders nodded in agreement.
Even Chi You, who had his own ulterior motives, nodded in agreement after hearing this analysis.
After all, according to Jiufeng's analysis.
The situation is indeed becoming increasingly favorable for them.
Chi You was ambitious.
But that doesn’t mean he has to take the most difficult path.
Having those rogue cultivators waste time fighting against the Chan Sect cultivators would undoubtedly be very beneficial for him to achieve his goal.
This is far better than Chi You bearing all the pressure himself.
The path he was about to take was far too difficult.
The Chan Sect has already made its first round of investment in Gongsun Xuanyuan.
Now is the time to increase investment, and then it will be time to reap the rewards.
He, Chi You, came out to make the Chan Sect's investment go down the drain.
The sage of the Chan sect would absolutely not accept this.
Unfortunately, Chi You and Gongsun Xuanyuan found themselves in a situation where one side would lose and the other would become a rebel.
It is obvious that he has to stand up to everything on his own.
The best option is to let the independent cultivators bear some of the pressure.
After a moment's deliberation, Chi You finally gave in.
He said, "Nine Phoenix Sister's words are profound!"
They clearly explained the situation we were about to face.
The advantages and disadvantages are obvious.
Now let's raise our banner and rebel against Gongsun Xuanyuan.
It certainly gives them the advantage of being the first to propose it.
However, the drawbacks are also very obvious: we have to withstand the vast majority of the pressure from the Chan Sect.
Perhaps those independent cultivators are also waiting for a powerful force to step forward and slap the faces of the Chan Sect cultivators.
Let the cultivators of the Chan Sect know how difficult it is to assist the Human Emperor.
Without their independent practice, things cannot be accomplished.
In doing so, we have inadvertently benefited the rogue cultivators.
At that time, we will be facing both independent practitioners and the Chan sect.
In view of this, I have decided to adopt Jiufeng's opinion.
Let's wait a bit!
Let those rogue cultivators continue their squabble with the Chan Sect cultivators for a while longer.
