....
Here is a land of ruins, it seems particularly silent, there is no too powerful life fluctuation, broken house buildings, only half-cut walls, standing there alone, desolate slaughter swept through this space area.
But in the midst of the heavy ruins there was a figure moving.
It was a black robe, walking very slowly, like an old man who was about to die, and as if he were a seriously ill patient, and slowly walked towards another desolate part of the sky. No one? All life here seems to have disappeared at a certain moment, which seems very inexplicable.
Walking on the ruins, the sound of feet stepping on the rubble became the only trace here, that is, the wind was also exceptionally well-behaved here, without whining, like an obedient child.
At the same time, in a golden and splendid hall, there were also some people who seemed to be discussing and discussing something.
“......”
"Your Holiness, according to my meaning, the enemy will not move, I will not move, their target is not us, we do not need to weaken our strength for the lives of those ants, the Emperor Sect is the first major religion in the Southern Region, I think at least they are not stupid enough to attack us first." A young man's voice came out, very calm, and the analysis was also very reasonable.
The hall is large, decorated with unusual grandeur, with brilliant streamers and gold being the main color here. In the eyes of ordinary people, gold represents the domineering dignity of the emperor, only the people of the imperial family can enjoy such a style, but in this place where there is no imperial home, gold is the symbol of a powerful family, only the power that stands at the peak of the era region can be arranged naturally, to put it bluntly, this is a symbol of power.
At this moment, the hall was full of people, talking was a young man, not to say that Yu Xuanang, but it was not too bad, in the cultivation world, due to the impurities in the body in the process of cultivation, most of the cultivators did not look very ugly, this young man's genes were not good, but the cultivation was still over, and it was also a table of talents. At this moment, his speech was addressed to the old man in the high position, and the identity of this young man was not very low.
There were also many older people sitting next to him, and there was a lot of special things about him being able to sit with them.
"Hao'er is right, this time everything happened too suddenly, the clearly calm southern region suddenly set off such a storm, we still need to quietly observe..."..."
After the young man stood up and spoke, a middle-aged man next to him also spoke, agreeing with the young man's point of view.
"Yes, yes, it is not easy for us to move first, we should wait and see what happens." Many other people sitting in the audience also nodded their heads, obviously thinking that it was very reasonable. However, in the eyes of the clear-eyed people, it is obvious that these are just people who see the wind and make the rudder.
The young man's face also showed a smile, in this kind of big force, if you want to really stand firm, the human heart is the most important. Whether it is sincere or superficially false, it does not matter, what is important is that others can see it, this is their own leadership ability.
The three old men on the highest stage did not say anything, closed their eyes, did not know that they thought that it was three ordinary old people sleeping, did not open their mouths to object, and listened quietly.
This thing often does not develop so smoothly, there is competition there, not everyone will agree, and soon the discordant voices will come out.
"What Hao Gongzi said is reasonable, but in the next view, we still have to be careful, this time they are menacing, I have a premonition, the wind and rain are coming, this time I am afraid that the southern region is going to be subverted..." But in the end there will be some people who do not have long eyes, to be this one out of the head bird. Since the most qualified ones have not yet spoken, of course, they will not be so settled.
"High Priest, what consciousness are you saying this, are you cursing my Holy Religion?" The old man on the left side of the high platform opened his eyes, slightly displeased, and inadvertently glanced at the man who spoke
"That is, but some young people have scared the high priest into this way, don't talk nonsense here." The old man on the right side of the high platform also made a sound, and the statement of these two old men was not very popular with the high priest above this great hall.
The psychology of man is like this, when others say things that are not satisfactory, they will also take a stand, and it is obvious that the words of the person who came out touched their nerves - that cannot be said bluntly. Man always has a kind of uneasiness in his heart, but when others say it, he does not want to believe it. I always hope that the facts are different from what I imagined, but reality always backfires.
The young man's brow frowned inadvertently, and then returned to his original state, and did not say anything, but still a faint smile hung on his face, as if the high priest was not refuting his opinion, this man was still very city-like although he was young. The young man may have thought more simply, and in his opinion, these two old men were on his side.
"What the two vice-sects said is reasonable, but it is precisely because they are young people, so they think that now is a good time for our Emperor Holy Sect to unify the southern region." We should take the initiative to attack and eliminate this hazard in front of them, so that our prestige in the Thirteen Domains of the Southern Domain will be unprecedentedly strong, as long as we can succeed, the ten major colleges and three major colleges can only bow down, if we overbear and think that we are afraid of them, this is not conducive to the hearts of the army. Now is the time when they need us the most, if this handle is pulled well, we will certainly be able to regain the hearts of the people in the southern region, which can be said to be a once-in-a-lifetime good opportunity. ”
The impassioned statement echoed in this golden hall, as if he had seen the vision in his heart, the moment when the Emperor Sect unified the southern realm, and at that moment he was receiving the worship of all the peoples and accepting those infinite glories. The day of the re-integration of the Southern Domain has finally arrived.
There was a brief silence, and although there was a longing on everyone's face, it was thought that the words of the high priest had played a role, but everything had yet to be decided.
"The high priest is also well-intentioned, this may be as you said this is an opportunity, but it is also a disaster..." An old man stood up and pondered for a long time, the old man still stood up and said his thoughts, in the Emperor Sect, the status gap is still very large, the Emperor Sect has an Emperor Pope, ruling the overall situation. The High Priest is in charge of the sacrifices, the position of power is superior to the Pope, and they are only subordinates of His Holiness the Pope, and should not have intervened, but in such moments of crisis, he had to do so. As an old man of the Emperor's Sect, he could not stand idly by.
"Oh, Bishop of ink wings, how to say that it is difficult to say ah" The high priest narrowed his eyes, he had already said so clearly, or some people felt inappropriate, this was clearly provoking himself, a small bishop dared to talk to himself like this, it was really not big or small.
Many of the figures behind the high priest were also displeased, and the person in the middle of the throne had not yet expressed his position, but this dog's leg was blind. The two vice-sects have not yet expressed their position, which is a bit offside, and there are also great rules for the emphasis on status in the big forces.
"High Priest Mo Qian, or let me say my opinion, now that the enemy is dark and I am clear, we don't know exactly how many people they have, how wide they are, how strong their strength is, and how strong they are now. If we blindly do this head bird, I am afraid that it will not be good for us, and I hope that the Pope will understand it. Although the old man does not say much, but the words are straight to the point, it can be said that this is indeed the most important point, but also whether to shoot a point.
The strength of the Emperor Sect did not reach a monopoly in the southern region, the ten major families had extraordinary heritage, even if they were not as good as the Emperor Sect, but they could not be underestimated, but in the face of this raid, they did not have much reaction, but they just sent some shrimp soldiers and crabs to cope with the call in the future, that is, just a scene of drama, and did not really pay attention to it. So there are too many situations to be divided, maybe they are not aware of the danger, which is obviously not very likely, as some big families are well informed, it is inevitable, sitting in the imperial city of the imperial domain, but the wind and rain of the eight parties will definitely end here. They are also waiting for something, waiting for someone to do this unlucky egg to test the waters.
"Hmm, if there is no certain risk, how can there be a high return, this is a great opportunity for the Emperor's Sect, the three colleges are now getting stronger and stronger, the strength of the family has been significantly weakened, it can be said that it will not be long before the three colleges will climb on our heads, I have a sincere heart, and I hope that the Pope can understand, don't be forced by some treacherous villains, this time we can't shrink back, fly over here." The sacrificial old man looked at the man on the throne and didn't argue much.
.......
Clear-eyed people can understand that this high priest is not very popular, except for those who belong to him who are still on his side, other people have all thrown themselves into other strengths, obviously there is no unexpected unity here, but this is also inevitable, no matter which force or organization, can not be monolithic, there is no eternal friendship in this world, only eternal interests.
As long as it does not touch their own interests, everything is still very negotiable.
"Oh, High Priest, you are serious, where do you come from, but everyone expresses their own opinions, the development of the Emperor Sect is not a matter for two of us, or do you want everyone to consider it together, I also understand your thoughts, a piece of hard work is also in the eyes, but will this really be the opportunity for the Emperor Sect to fly over?" You don't know the background of the three major colleges, they are only stronger than us, the ten major families are also deeply rooted in the imperial domain, not to mention the unauthentic businessmen of the Moyun Chamber of Commerce, we can't be this head bird, I think it is appropriate to be quiet and not to move now. ”
The people on the main seat also opened their eyes, and they were also sitting on the high platform, but he looked much younger than the two old men next to him, and it was not too much to say that he was middle-aged, and his opening seemed to be a big round field, not biased toward anyone, and he also said his decision, which can also be said to have been finalized by a hammer.
Since the Pope spoke, the High Priest could only sit down helplessly, as the High Priest, in fact, he should not interfere in the deliberations of the Emperor Sect, he was in charge of the sacrifice only in the most critical situations, but with the development of the times, the forces within the Emperor Sect formed a distribution, which also made him have to intervene, he did not want the Emperor Sect to belong to only one person.
The current Emperor Sect is extremely unstable within it, as if as long as the big forces have the meaning of power struggle, standing right is to live, standing wrong, there is no way back to go, obviously, this time he is still standing wrong, he vaguely feels that the Emperor Sect is no longer the former Emperor Sect.
The former Emperor Sect, single-mindedly for the people, maintained the peace and stability of the Southern Domain under the leadership of the Pope, and prospered and prospered, but with the rise of other small forces, the majesty of the Emperor Sect in the Southern Domain became more and more vain, and the rise of the Academy made the rule of the Emperor Sect invisibly disappear. This time the change seems to be premeditated, and it seems to be accidental, but it cannot be denied that this is an opportunity, an opportunity to rise and create brilliance, but they all care too much about their own interests....
"Well, here we are today's deliberations, some of the previous decisions will be implemented as soon as possible, and we will quietly wait for the opportunity on the last issue to be discussed, but our manpower must be all assembled and ready, and as soon as the enemy moves, we will suppress it." Any objections? The old man above the throne decided on the policy after watching their discussion.
"I have no objection and follow the patriarchal decrees" Although the people in the audience had different ideas, they took over neatly under the Pope's order.
"Then disperse." The old man waved his sleeve, and the crowd left, and the high priest shook his head and got up and left with his men.
Outside the temple
The old priest walked on the blue-gray steps with a fading back, the old man's figure showed a hint of helplessness, the times were changing, and the situation in the southern region today was no longer thinking in the way he had achieved before. A force from rise to development to decline will always go through a process, perhaps the Emperor Sect has stood in the southern region for too long, making people later numb.
"Great Sacrifice," came a rush of footsteps behind him, and the prestige looked like a middle-aged man in his forties, and this man was a subordinate sitting behind the sacrifice.
The sacrificial old man Ye Huatian stopped, with his years of observation this subordinate has always been loyal to him, although the power of the sacrificial line is weakening day by day, I don't know how many people have withdrawn from the sacrifice, but there is always his follower.
