Chapter 377(1/2)
"Burn the cold stove..." Ning Zhenzhen nodded lightly.
The benefits of burning a cold stove are huge.
If she can gain the trust of Third Senior Sister and become a confidant, she can gain power, which is the most difficult thing for her to obtain now.
Because he is the youngest disciple, his training time is too short, and his time with the disciples of the sect is too short, and he has not yet established a relationship.
Compared to the eldest sister's popular support and powerful martial arts, and the majesty of the second and third senior sisters, she is not worth mentioning.
Although her goal is only news, she can get some rare information through the disciples of the Jade Butterfly Sect.
But if you can hold greater power, it will be easier to obtain information, and the information you obtain will be richer.
This is a shortcut.
"I originally thought that Senior Sister should be the leader of the sect." Ning Zhenzhen said: "If Senior Sister really doesn't deserve it, she should be Second Senior Sister. Third Senior Sister is not bad, but she is not better than Second Senior Sister, so it shouldn't be her turn."
of."
"Junior sister, you should understand."
"...Yes." Ning Zhenzhen said with a smile: "The elders are still thoughtful, but in this case..."
She shook her head slightly.
Senior Sister and Second Senior Sister are both very strong, but if one of them does something, the other one will not be able to step down, and may even cause a split in the Jade Butterfly Sect.
After all, both of them have many supporters.
Simply let Third Senior Sister become the sect leader.
The senior sister and the second senior sister have changed from rivals to sympathizers. They have resolved the knots in their hearts and are able to remain undivided.
But this also has a disadvantage. The third senior sister's prestige may not be enough, and she may have to maintain her status and find it difficult to develop.
However, this is not a bad thing. Sometimes we cannot blindly develop, and we need those who maintain the status quo to stabilize and accumulate strength.
The trouble now is to resolve the split in the Jade Butterfly Sect. After this step is completed, the rest will be figured out slowly.
Thinking of this, she felt inexplicably admiration.
Worthy of being one of the five elders.
"Senior brother, are you okay over there in Shenjing?" Ning Zhenzhen asked.
Fakong shook his head and recounted the recent events, which made Ning Zhenzhen frown.
She didn't expect that just a few days after she left, Shenjing would be turbulent and so many things would happen.
"Brother, if the Six Paths of Demon Sect really want to join the Southern Supervision Department, what will we do?"
"Junior sister, what do you think?"
"We have to be on guard." Ning Zhenzhen frowned, pacing under the moonlight with his hands behind his hands, and mused: "But it wouldn't be right if they lead you by the nose... It still depends on the emperor's thoughts, whether he wants to deal with the Demon Sect
What kind of strategy to adopt.”
"The Emperor will not reuse the Demon Sect at will." Fakong said: "This is the most basic bottom line, but we also want to use them to check and balance our three major sects, but the ones we can really rest assured are our three major sects."
Ning Zhenzhen nodded lightly.
Indeed.
There are still three major sects that the emperor can trust, but the emperor is a suspicious person and will not completely believe in any of them.
But the Six Paths of Demon Sect couldn’t believe it even more.
After all, the Founding Patriarch killed many masters of the Demon Sect before finally destroying the great cadres of the Great Yi Dynasty.
Don't say everyone is his own, hatred is hatred.
Even though thousands of years have passed, this hatred is still engraved in his bones, and the emperor will never dare to forget it.
"After all, you still have to follow your own will. If you want to join, join. If you don't want to join, forget it." Fakong said: "Don't be too forced. Our three major sects don't need to look at others, including the emperor."
"Yes." Ning Zhenzhen nodded lightly.
The three major sects have always been linked to each other, which is why the emperor was afraid.
If the three major sects continue to fight secretly, the emperor will not let go of the Six Paths of the Demon Sect and allow it to develop.
Fundamentally, we are still afraid that the three major sects will be too united. If they really want to join forces to do something, they will need external checks and balances.
Power is the art of balance.

"Master, are we really going to leave Shenjing City?" Xu Qingluo asked in surprise when having breakfast at Wangjiang Tower in the early morning.
Fan Ning and Lin Feiyang looked over at the same time.
Zhou Yang, who was engrossed in eating, also raised his head and widened his eyes.
Zhou Yu said softly: "Senior brother, why are you leaving Shenjing?"
"Go on a trip." Fa Kong said with a smile: "You have been staying in Shenjing for too long, don't you think it's a bit boring?"
"No." Xu Qingluo said with a smile: "This is good. Let's practice and have fun. It's the best."
Zhou Yu and Zhou Yang also nodded.
Although the pagoda garden was not big, it gave them endless fun. The three of them competed together, and Chu Ling joined in. They had a great time playing every day. They did not feel boring at all, but enjoyed it endlessly.
Fakong shook his head: "Staying in one place all the time will lack enough stimulation, which will be useless for your martial arts practice."
Changing to a strange environment will make the cerebral cortex more active, resulting in inspiration and more insights.
This is an experience that Fa Kong had in his previous life, and his experience in this life is even deeper, so he needs to change his environment frequently and cannot settle in the same place.
Reading thousands of books and traveling thousands of miles also has this relationship.
"Master, where are we going?" Xu Qingluo asked curiously.
Seeing Kong's behavior, she knew that her decision had been made and she could not dissuade him, so she could only follow it.
Who is allowed to be a disciple? If you don’t listen to the master, who will you listen to?
"Go to the Guangming Holy Sect." Fakong said, "I want to meet your Uncle Xu. He should be out of seclusion now."
"Uncle Xu?" Zhou Yang suddenly shouted in surprise.
Zhou Yu also smiled.
The two of them immediately thought of the time when Xu Zhijian helped them build the foundation.
Although Xu Zhijian was serious and the methods of building the foundation of the Holy Sect of Light were extremely painful, they could feel the sincerity and compassion underneath his ugly face.
So I am very close to Xu Zhijian.
Fa Kong nodded.
Zhou Yu said softly: "I really miss Senior Brother Xu."
"It would be a good idea to meet Master Xu." Zhou Yang smiled and said, "Master, when should we set off?"
"Leaving today."
"So urgent?" Lin Feiyang said: "Abbott, why don't I go see Lao Xu first and see if he is out of seclusion."
"No need." Fakong shook his head: "It's time to leave the border now. Let's just go there. Walking slowly along the way will also open your eyes."
"...Alright." Lin Feiyang agreed.
Fakong looked at Xu Qingluo and the others and said calmly: "I won't take you along this way. You have to perform Qing Gong on your own. You need to be prepared and it will be very hard."
"Master, don't worry, we can bear it!"
"Master, don't worry."
"That's good." Fakong smiled and said, "I hope you can still speak so forcefully in three to five days."
——
At noon, Fa Kong and his party of six people left the south gate of Shenjing and slowly headed south along the official road.
Xu Qingluo had already changed into a white outfit, looking clean and neat. She followed Fakong and said, "Master, let's go like this. How long will it take? Shenjing is far away from the Holy Sect of Light, isn't it?"
"At least thousands of miles away." Lin Feiyang said.
Fa Kong nodded.
Xu Qingluo said: "How long will it take to walk? Why don't we use Qinggong to hurry up? It will be faster."
Fa Kong nodded.
"Alas..." Xu Qingluo turned around and looked back, somewhat reluctantly.
Fakong smiled.
Lin Feiyang smiled and said: "Xiao Qingluo, we are just going out to visit friends. It's not like we won't come back. What's the regret?"
"I haven't said goodbye to His Highness yet." Xu Qingluo shook her head: "And Sister Li, she didn't say a word and just left without saying a word, which is a bit bad."
Fakong laughed.
