Chapter 693: Chapter 643: Sit on Wax
Dragon Tiger Mountain, one of the highest-ranking powers in the Sky Wasteland, despite having only two cultivators in the Nine Realms of Spirit, still holds a superior place, even among top-tier powers in this world.
Everything is attributed to the existence of Ancestor Celestial Master, a dominant figure who has defeated other cultavators with equal powers in the Nine Realms of Spirit. His presence alone is equivalent to the existence of two such supreme cultivators.
Of course, the Blood Fiend Ancestor’s wariness of the Ancestor Celestial Master does not stop there; it also arises from his understanding of the Ancestor Celestial Master’s personality.
As a high-ranking cultivator who has lived for thousands of years, one would assume him to be composed, magnanimous, and wise. However, those who know the Ancestor Celestial Master well are well aware of his temperamental nature.
If Blood Fiend Ancestor truly disrespects him today and breaks the peace, even if no action is taken now, in the future, the Ancestor Celestial Master will undoubtedly storm to the Blood Fiend Sect’s door, a scenario that the Blood Fiend Ancestor would prefer not to witness.
What surprised the crowd, however, was the Ancestor Celestial Master’s early stance. They were not at all surprised about his approval of supporting Pei Xuanjing’s plan.
The Ancestor Celestial Master is responsible for the success and rise of the Taoist School, establishing dominance by defeating spirits, establishing the Zhengyi Alliance Prestige and setting the rules.
Pei Xuanjing’s plan actually appeals to the Ancestor Celestial Master or rather it could be said that such a similar idea occurred to him long ago, even before the Sky Wasteland era.
He established Zhengyi Dao and used the Zhengyi Alliance Prestige to control various forces, aiming to implement similar rules and govern all sides with the Taoist School. However, he encountered a significant obstruction, and as a result, this strategy could not be carried out in Zhengyi Alliance Prestige and could only be circulated within the Taoist School.
Now that Pei Xuanjing has come forward with this plan, no matter what others may think, the Ancestor Celestial Master would not miss this opportunity and chose to back it up.
Apart from this, another reason is the lineage of Dragon Tiger Mountain and Pei Xuanjing have some history and connections. Thus, there is no reason not to assist Pei Xuanjing.
With the Ancestor Celestial Master openly supporting the plan, he became the first among all the top-tier forces present to back Pei Xuanjing’s plan, and his endorsement is something that cannot be taken lightly.
The Master of Mystiq Sky, standing aside, looked uncomfortable and silently regretted. He initially voiced his opinion, mainly seeking to question the Blood Fiend Ancestor and seize the opportunity to wrest control of the plan from Pei Xuanjing.
But now, before he realized it, the situation changed again. As soon as the Ancestor Celestial Master voiced his support, a significant shift occurred.
Dragon Tiger Mountain’s standing in the Sky Wasteland is not insignificant, along with them there are also numerous followers of Taoist School. When the Ancestor Celestial Master, the head of the Taoist School, expressed his support, the followers naturally echoed his stance.
In the blink of an eye, several major and secondary forces under the Taoist School expressed their attitudes, agreeing with Pei Xuanjing’s plan.
Furthermore, when the Ancestor Celestial Master of Dragon Tiger Mountain came forward, the rest of the top-tier forces no longer hesitated and expressed their views one after another.
For example, the powerhouse of Xuan Du Guan then voiced his opinion, “We think that the national teacher’s plan is good. If it can be successfully implemented, it will be greatly beneficial.”
For the likes of Xuan Du Guan, a top-tier power, even though they are a top-tier force, they don’t recruit disciples wholesale, and their disciples are not a mixed bunch, they actually follow the elite route and all their disciples are exceptional.
So, even if Pei Xuanjing’s plan is implemented, it will not impact them. Instead, they see this plan as another way to test their disciples. If this opportunity allows their disciples to excel even more, then why not?
Following that, Taisu Sect also expressed their position; they also agree with this plan.
After all, Taisu Sect is a top-tier force, but it is one of the few forces composed of many female cultivators. They originally didn’t like battles. Implementing such a plan would be beneficial for their disciples traveling around.
With the cascade of approval from these top-tier powers, their affiliated parties naturally agreed.
No one expected that this initially unsupported plan would garner the support of nearly a fifth of all forces in such a short time.
“National Counselor, you’re amazing!” Wu Shijiu sighed as he watched the scene unfold.
He initially thought that the proposal that Pei Xuanjing was implementing was a bit hasty and might be difficult to carry out. The earlier opposition and obstruction by the Blood Fiend Ancestor seemed to confirm his thoughts.
However, in a flash, after the Ancestor Celestial Master voiced his opinion, the situation turned around. Pei Xuanjing quickly gained the support of so many people, creating quite a momentum.
Regardless of whether Pei Xuanjing communicated with the Ancestor Celestial Master beforehand, the current situation looks promising.
“Now we need to see how the forces of Demonic Way, Buddhism School, and Mystiq Sky take their stance.” Wu Shijiu spoke to Zhu Houji, analyzing the current situation.
Zhu Houji asked in confusion, “Doesn’t the Sword Sect, whose strength can compete with the Mystiq Sky for the position of the Righteous Path, also play an important role?”
Wu Shijiu smiled, “The Sword Sect will definitely agree because the national teacher’s plan actually aligns with the tastes of the Sword Sect, especially now when Mystiq Sky has not yet expressed support.”
Zhu Houji was somewhat speechless. After all, he didn’t know much about the entanglement of various forces in the Sky Wasteland. But the next moment, the situation in the main hall validated Wu Shijiu’s words.
Before Wu Shijiu finished speaking, the powerhouse of the Sword Sect expressed his agreement with Pei Xuanjing’s plan. This dominant top-tier power has enough strength to compete with Mystiq Sky. When they made a decision, it attracted even more forces to respond, gaining nearly a quarter of overall support in the blink of an eye.
The idea of the Sword Sect is simple. They can’t let Mystiq Sky have it easy. When they saw that Mystiq Sky wanted to seize Pei Xuanjing’s opportunity for their own use, they naturally supported it first, creating a fixed situation and disrupting Mystiq Sky’s plans and ideas.
It has to be said that the Sword Sect’s undermining move made the Master of Mystiq Sky extremely uncomfortable and caused him to worry.
Just as Wu Shijiu said, now only Mystiq Sky, Demonic Way, and Buddhism School are left to express their stance. If he chooses to oppose, he will directly confront Pei Xuanjing, which is not what the Master of Mystiq Sky wants to see.
But, if he capitulates just like that, he will be simply complying with the Sword Sect’s plan and making a wedding dress for Pei Xuanjing in vain.
