Chapter 464: Fang Che's Report
Chapter 464: Fang Che's Report
"Haha... Senior Brother Luo, what does it mean to have achieved success in cultivation?"
"At the very least..."
"By the time we reach that level... won't the bones of our junior brothers and sisters have rotted away? Senior Brother Luo, what are you afraid of?"
"I'm not afraid, but I mean, aside from going out to die in vain, what's the point?"
"So you want to be a turtle?"
"What do you mean by being a turtle? A gentleman's revenge is never too late, haven't you heard that saying?"
"I'm sorry, Senior Brother Luo, I'm not a gentleman! I can't bear to hide my hatred and stay in the mountain gate to cultivate, I just can't do it!"
"Vengeance must be served, and debts must be repaid in blood!"
"How dare you! Do you know what kind of place our Cold Sword Sect is? Your actions will bring disaster upon our sect!"
Luo Fei Yu was furious.
A total of one hundred disciples from the Cold Sword Sect participated in the Yin Yang Realm trial, and only twenty-seven of them made it out alive.
Now, all twenty-six of them were dissatisfied with the chief disciple, Luo Fei Yu.
An internal conflict suddenly erupted within the sect.
As the higher-ups intervened, this internal conflict gradually escalated into a war between two major factions.
"Conceal one's brilliance, live in seclusion, and wait for the right opportunity to save the world. This is the ancestral teaching!"
"Even if all our relatives and family members are dead, should we still conceal our brilliance and hide in the mountains like turtles? What do you mean by the right opportunity? Which one of you has weak cultivation? If you wait until death to take action, then when will you save the world?"
"How dare you!"
"You're the ones being insolent!"
The argument escalated, and before anyone knew it, someone pushed, leading to a physical fight.
The chaos continued until Gu Changhan, who had been in secluded cultivation, came out and put an end to it.
"What are you doing? What are you all doing?! Are you crazy?!"
Gu Changhan roared, causing the mountains to tremble.
Everyone stopped arguing.
Gu Changhan's anger burned within him, and he immediately ordered the sect to be closed for rectification, then imprisoned all seven thousand people involved in the fight!
Then, Gu Changhan summoned all the higher-ups.
To further discuss the issue.
"This time, we must come to a conclusion! The future of our sect lies in this very moment!"
"Even if the sect splits because of this, we must have a final result!"
"This debate is the life and death of the Cold Sword Sect!"
A grand rectification of the sect began.
Perhaps even Gu Changhan himself hadn't expected it.
This sudden debate over the direction of the sect, as he himself had said, truly determined the future of the Cold Sword Sect, and truly decided its life and death!
...
It was already past midnight.
Fang Che, still feeling unfulfilled, finally put on Starlight Chief's clothes and styled himself as Starlight Chief.
Yes, Fang finally remembered his own Heavenly Prodigy.
After more than a month, Chief Escort Yin Xiu finally reappeared.
He first took a look at the communication jade.
After leaving the Yin Yang Realm, he had already found time to check the communication jade.
He had replied to Chen Yin, Feng Xing, Lei Jiutian, Lingkong Xi, Yun Xiao Jue, Zhan Meng, and others.
As for Seal God Palace, he naturally dared not be negligent.
He reported everything in great detail.
This was of utmost importance.
"Master, disciple Night Demon pays his respects. I have not greeted you for many days, and I am guilty."
"This time, I accepted the Guardian's secret order on short notice, entered the Secluded Mountain Gate's Yin Yang Realm for training, and have just come out, and have just parted ways with Guardian Xue Fuxiao..."
"Master, this time in the Yin Yang Realm, I truly opened my eyes to the disciples' experiences..."
Then he described it in great detail, yet still briefly, in several thousand words.
His experiences, encounters with demonic beasts, gains, Yan Bei Han, Feng Yun...
And so on.
He even added his own evaluations of many people.
And deeply lamented the great regret of not being able to bring his cultivation out, expressing all his gains, and the great pain of having his Spatial Ring taken away by Xue Fuxiao: "Even if you give me one percent, I will offer it to you as a filial disciple, Master."
"Giving it all to the Guardian is a waste. I don't know what to feel in my heart..."
As for how he did things, he didn't hide anything at all.
He didn't even hide the fact that he had been with Yan Bei Han for nearly nine years, and boasted: "Master, Yan stayed with me for more than eight years, and he didn't even know that I was Night Demon. He thought I was a Guardian, and even wanted to kill me several times... My hiding skills have truly surpassed your teachings, Master."
And he emphasized that he followed Duan Shouzuo's instructions and took care of Yan Bei Han as much as possible inside, although Yan Bei Han didn't know his identity and wanted to kill him, but he still did an excellent job... protecting Yan very well.
But of course, he didn't say anything about the cemetery.
Nor did he mention his speculations about Little Bear.
He didn't even mention the water control power he had brought out.
"How did I cooperate with Feng Yun, and he thought I was a Guardian with my own thoughts... How did I cause trouble inside, and how I did this and that..."
"How hard I worked, and how Snow treated me well after coming out, and how I met Duan Shouzuo, and how I displayed the Guardian's mighty and unyielding image in front of Shouzuo..."
"Yan Bei Han didn't know who I was inside, and only contacted me after coming out, promising to bring me the divine metal, and even gave me several bottles of elixir, which I will keep for you if you need them, Master..."
Finally, he reflected: "...I have been negligent during this time, and I have no idea what the branch is like. I don't even know what's going on with Heavenly Prodigy. I will find an opportunity to go there and report the situation of the branch to you later..."
"If you have anything you want me to do, Master, just tell me."
The disciple was willing to brave any danger and face death a million times over for the sect."
Finally, he sincerely expressed his eagerness to make contributions for the sect: "Master, when will I get promoted? When will the appointment of General Inspector that you mentioned come through?... I feel that I'm more than capable of shouldering great responsibilities now..."
This report combined all elements of loyalty, devotion, concern, filial piety, longing, cuteness, obedience, innocence, maturity, and more! His words were filled with emotion, sincere and candid, leaving no detail unspoken. Moreover, he provided Seal God Palace with an opportunity to 'discipline the disciples and showcase the master's authority.'
Combining flattery from ancient times into one; merging all the sycophancy from ancient times into a single furnace!
After sending the message, Fang Che waited anxiously for a reply.
However, for some unknown reason, Seal God Palace never responded.
This left Fang Che puzzled, wondering what the old demon was up to.
Why wasn't he replying to his beloved disciple?
Didn't he fear that the disciple would get upset?
Clearly, after I came out, the most frequent messages I received were from him, and he earnestly instructed me to report immediately upon my return.
Now, he's gone without a trace.
Could he have been eliminated by the Guardians?
With this confusion in mind, Fang Che arrived at the Heavenly Escort Bureau.
Zhao Wushang and Zheng Yunqi, who hadn't seen Fang Che for a long time, were overjoyed.
"Grand Escort Commander, you're finally here! It's been over a month, where have you been?"
Both of them were filled with immense joy.
Although the two of them could fully manage all the bureau's operations, they always felt like something was missing when the Grand Escort Commander was absent.
Moreover, after those cheapskates left, there were hardly any people left to joke around with.
The people from the Only Righteous Sect were all too obedient.
They would obediently follow any instructions given to them.
Zhao Wushang and Zheng Yunqi's family was by no means considered a major power within the Only Righteous Sect's headquarters; at best, they were a medium-sized family.
However, they still looked down upon the people from the Only Righteous Sect. Each of them seemed like sycophants, and even bullying them brought no pleasure.
Even if they were beaten to death, they would still not dare to show any defiance. What's the point in that?
So, although Zhao Wushang and Zheng Yunqi held supreme power and acted independently, they couldn't help but feel a sense of loneliness.
However, returning to this place, they felt much freer than being in their own families. Additionally, they could receive the salary from the Grand Escort Commander and an extra income from the Heavenly Escort Bureau...
Their cultivation and combat strength wouldn't lag, and occasionally, when the stillness became unbearable, they could go out on escort missions, traveling and enjoying the scenery... The two of them were already content and had no desire to return to their previous lives.
In their current state, if these two were to return home, they might become depressed within a few days.
With nothing to do, they spent their days waiting for the Star Chief. They wondered what the Chief was up to and why there had been no news for so long. Could something have happened?
The moment they saw Fang Che, it was as if they had encountered a living Bodhisattva, and there was a sense of joy from a long-awaited reunion.
"You two, with nothing to do, are just sunbathing? Is the Star Chief free today?"
Fang Che looked at the eighteen large poplar trees in front of the two, bare and empty.
"If you want to prank someone, you can do it every day, but the problem is, there's no fun in bullying them." Zhao Wushang grumbled.
Zheng Yunqi nodded in agreement.
"You two are wrong in this regard," Fang Che said.
"Your mindset needs to change. You can't maintain the attitude of being young masters from prestigious families here. That's unacceptable."
"If we can have fun together, why bother about their status? As long as we're having fun, in the future, when you two move up, these people will naturally become part of the core team. And even if you don't put on airs, everyone here knows your families are powerful. So, they also yearn for connections with the upper echelons, isn't it a perfect match?"
Fang Che patted both of their shoulders, "Regarding this, you two should think it over."
The two of them appeared deep in thought.
"Truly exceptional people don't need to show off their greatness, but everyone knows they are exceptional. So, whatever they do, even if they're having a meal with a beggar, people will praise their greatness. Because not everyone can set aside their status."
"It's easy to put on airs, but it's difficult to set them aside. But let me tell you something, throughout history, those who have achieved great things are the ones who could clearly put on airs and stand above others, but they chose to set aside their status!"
Fang Che said calmly, "When you two understand this, you won't have lived in vain."
