Chapter 482: The Seventh Pot of Tea (Part 2) (Part 1)
Chapter 482: The Seventh Pot of Tea (Part 2) (Part 1)
Dongfang Sansan was well aware that if Yan Nan were to discover that the Night Demon had endured her calming tea, it would be completely over.
Currently, Yan Nan held the Night Demon in high regard, and it was not unusual for him to want to meet with her. For instance, the interaction between Duan Xiyang and Fang Che had completely caught Dongfang Sansan off guard.
Such a coincidence was so extraordinary that even a deity would find it difficult to predict.
If Yan Nan had encountered such a coincidence after drinking the calming tea, there would be no need for this plan.
Yan Nan could afford to lose a Night Demon, but Dongfang Sansan could not afford to lose Fang Che! This was a different matter altogether.
After drinking three cups of tea, Fang Che felt refreshed and clear-minded. The anxiety that made him forgetful was gone, and all matters were as if engraved in his mind, allowing him to recall them at any time.
He could even remember every word Dongfang Sansan said, along with her expressions and gaze.
Seeing Fang Che's expression, Dongfang Sansan smiled warmly, "Have you remembered everything?"
"Yes, I have!" Fang Che replied.
Fang Che finally understood that since the start of the tea session, Dongfang Sansan had asked meaningfully after almost every pot of tea, "Have you remembered everything?"
"Since that's the case, let's discuss your thoughts after the fifth pot of tea."
Dongfang Sansan finally revealed her true intentions towards Fang Che, "In your opinion, if everything goes smoothly, how long do you think it will take to eliminate the Only Righteous Sect?"
Fang Che suddenly felt a sense of bewilderment.
Before the fourth pot of tea, Fang Che had already tried his best to give the Only Righteous Sect the benefit of the doubt.
He still felt that it was just a gang, a sect.
Although they were powerful and their martial prowess was formidable, they did not win the hearts of the people. Moreover, they went against the heavens, and with the righteous banner and the support of the world, it should be possible to gradually gain the upper hand, right?
As long as he obtained intelligence on the Only Righteous Sect, it shouldn't be difficult to drive them back, force them into a corner, and then slowly erode them, right?
But now, after the time it took to drink four pots of tea, Fang Che found that he didn't dare to think that way anymore.
The Only Righteous Sect didn't have a popular foundation? Wrong! Completely wrong! The population on their side was also in the hundreds of billions, and they had already become accustomed to living under high pressure.
If you don't obey, you die. So, I'll obey.
As long as you don't die, you can fight for glory and wealth.
Under the long-term oppression, they might even become die-hard supporters of the Only Righteous Sect! That's human nature!
Perhaps... if one day the Only Righteous Sect invades and occupies this side, the people here would also do the same...
Seeing Fang Che's silence, Dongfang Sansan said, "You don't dare to think about it anymore? Or you don't have the confidence?"
Dongfang Sansan spoke calmly, "I need to tell you now that eliminating the Only Righteous Sect is just the beginning of our goal. What do you think?"
Fang Che suddenly raised his head, and his eyes almost turned bloodshot. "Grandpa Nine, what do you mean?"
"The Heaven Scorpion Deity!" Dongfang Sansan sighed deeply and said, "I've read your Junlin Autobiography, so I know very well that our true, greatest, and final opponent is the Heaven Scorpion Deity to pick up something, Dongfang Sansan seized the opportunity.
"Originally, there was no Only Righteous Sect, but after Junlin destroyed that divine avatar, the Only Righteous Sect gradually emerged."
"If one day we truly succeed in eliminating the Only Righteous Sect, we will once again face a divine avatar, or perhaps... another secret sect will appear."
"Once we sweep away all of this, we will have to face the gods head-on in battle."
"With our current strength, do you think we can win?"
She smiled calmly, "Moreover, I can now confidently tell you that there is more than one such god."
Fang Che's expression turned as calm as water.
"If we continue at our current pace, do you think it's possible to eliminate the Only Righteous Sect within a hundred or two hundred years?" Dongfang Sansan asked.
"Absolutely impossible!" Fang Che sighed deeply.
"A hundred or two hundred years?" Dongfang Sansan asked again.
"It's... also not very likely." Fang Che lowered his head.
Dongfang Sansan smiled faintly, and her eyes suddenly became as sharp as knives. "Then why are you in such a hurry?"
"I..." Fang Che was stunned.
"You're too impatient." Dongfang Sansan spoke softly, "Your current approach makes me feel like you're a fugitive, eager to nail yourself to the wall or become a martyr by engraving yourself on a memorial plaque."
"Grandpa Nine, I'm not afraid to die," Fang Che said in a low voice.
"I know you're not afraid of death," Dongfang Sansan said.
"If you were afraid of death, you wouldn't be doing what you're doing now. But not fearing death and seeking death are two different things."
"You're not afraid of death, but everyone else is afraid of your death. The Only Righteous Sect can exist on our side, but we can only plant you on their side!"
"You're not even afraid of death, yet you're afraid of patiently fighting?" Dongfang Sansan said, frustrated.
"I've endured over ten thousand years without hope, but you can't endure this time when there's hope?"
Fang Che lowered his head and murmured, "Sometimes I can't help but be a little impatient..."
Dongfang Sansan said, "You were too impatient with the matters of the Heavenly Palace, Shang Gongzi, and the Dream Demon. If it weren't for your solid foundation, combined with various coincidences and collaborations, you would have essentially died those times."
Fang Che's face turned red with embarrassment. "Yes."
"With the protection of the Seal Deity Palace and their endorsement, you can be safe for a while. But once you go beyond their reach and interact with more high-level figures, the more unfamiliar you become, and the stronger their guard will be.
The more precautions, the more doubts; the more doubts, the more likely a slip-up. Just a little carelessness, and they'll take you out."
Dongfang Sansan sincerely advised, "Be careful, be careful, be careful!"
Fang Che solemnly nodded, "Yes!"
"This is the one thing that worries me the most about you. Aside from this, you've done a great job! Excellent!"
After Dongfang Sansan had given him a beating, he naturally had to offer some praise. He affirmed Fang Che's efforts during this time, saying, "Moreover, the shadow you created is truly marvelous."
Then, he frowned and smiled, "Although it's a bit rough, it's brilliant. No flaws!"
Fang Che was stunned.
I received praise, but this compliment made me feel a bit awkward.
Dongfang Sansan felt that his words had struck a chord.
He emphasized his point with a heavy hammer. That should be enough.
Then he urged Fang Che to drink tea.
A pot of Thousand Year Great Undertaking Tea, and Dongfang Sansan didn't take a single sip.
Three cups went straight into Fang Che's stomach.
Then Dongfang Sansan started to change the tea.
He said, "The sixth pot of tea is the Thousand Meridian Heart Tea of the Only Righteous Sect. As the name suggests, it's very beneficial for the meridians."
"This sixth pot of tea, let's talk about your Tianxia Escort Agency."
"First, tell me about your ultimate vision for the Tianxia Escort Agency."
Dongfang Sansan smiled lightly.
With the first five pots of tea, he felt he had already achieved his goal.
The rest was truly a reward for Fang Che.
"This plan started from the very beginning, for the sake of long-term benefits and to have a capable assistant. On the other hand, it was also to make a name for the Only Righteous Sect. But now it has grown so big..."
Fang Che said, "A few days ago, Yan Bei Han tried to recruit me again... and asked for my opinion about her future..."
Fang Che explained everything in detail, then shared his suggestions and considerations.
Dongfang Sansan once again became fully focused and attentive.
He had intended to relax, but this guy had such a big revelation hidden!
This problem was even more important to Dongfang Sansan than the previous ones.
In an instant, he thought of hundreds of ways to support Yan Bei Han and Feng Yun's rivalry, and ways to fuel the conflict between them.
This was the fundamental principle of the Only Righteous Sect.
It was a level of conflict that even the higher-ups like Yan Nan found difficult to intervene.
Just like raising Gu.
The civil war between Feng Yun and Yan Bei Han was enough to involve all the young members of the Only Righteous Sect!
But he didn't speak.
Instead, he patiently listened to Fang Che's detailed explanation.
He raised his head and pondered.
In the end, he kept his thoughts to himself and said nothing. Fang Che's plan was still a bit rough, but it was sufficient.
Moreover, Dongfang Sansan was well aware of one thing: he could command other matters, but when it came to Fang Che's ingenious ideas and backup plans, he couldn't interfere.
He only needed to quietly gather intelligence and fill in the gaps based on the information.
He deeply understood one thing: the sect's melody couldn't be sung by just anyone.
If he intervened in the planning, it wouldn't be Fang Che's own thoughts, and in the future, Fang Che might not be able to keep up with his own ideas. It would be better to let Fang Che have free rein.
"This plan is not bad," Dongfang Sansan approved, "Since you have a pot of tea, he immediately began to think.
By the time Fang Che finished speaking, he had already formulated his own plan...
"The seventh pot of tea. Time flies."
Dongfang Sansan sighed lightly.
Fang Che felt the same way; was it already the seventh pot of tea?
Seven pots of tea, which initially seemed like a long time, had now passed by.
"The seventh pot of tea is the Calm Mind Tea of the Only Righteous Sect. It's a tea that the Only Righteous Sect members love. Due to the Five Spirit Gu, they generally have a tendency towards violence. But remember, the members of the Only Righteous Sect also know how to enjoy life."
"Especially when family and friends gather, if everyone still carries a murderous aura, how can we have fun? So, this Calm Mind Tea becomes their treasure. Drinking a pot of this tea can calm their minds and spirits."
"This Calm Mind Tea is not as rare as the previous ones in the Only Righteous Sect, but it's not as common as those either. Anyone with some status and influence can obtain it."
Dongfang Sansan said, "Your next position will be the Southeast Headquarters Inspector of the Guardian Headquarters."
"
Fang Che nodded, "I understand. I am also the Chief Inspector in the Righteous Only Sect, and I'm in charge of inspecting the Night Demon."
Dongfang Sansan smiled, "This news, Ye Meng has reported it, and this arrangement is quite ingenious."
"You need to inspect the Righteous Only Sect. As for our side, you also need to inspect. In the southeast seventeen continents, plus dozens of small cities, you need to inspect them all."
"Your role is to be a strict inspector! Whether it's uncovering social darkness, corruption, or evil deeds... you must investigate and deal with them! You have great authority."
"The requirement is for you to clean up the worms among them and get rid of them! No leniency, no mercy!"
Dongfang Sansan became serious.
"Yes!"
"At the same time, find a way to deal with the evil and corrupt leaders of the Righteous Only Sect; but try to preserve the sect as much as possible. For now, the Righteous Only Sect's Seal Deity Palace is your talisman."
"Yes."
Dongfang Sansan smiled, "I now cherish the Righteous Only Sect's Seal Deity Palace. This is the first time in my life that I've cherished someone from an evil sect."
Fang Che couldn't help but laugh, "The Seal Deity Palace now cherishes me. I understand."
"Yes. Also, after you go to the Southeast Headquarters, your position will be the Deputy Minister. But An Ruo Xing and the Seal Deity Palace have a deep grudge."
Dongfang Sansan looked at Fang Che with meaning, "So, An Ruo Xing will carry out countless actions against the Righteous Only Sect. But no matter what, the Seal Deity Palace must not die."
A pained expression appeared on Fang Che's face, "I understand."
Dongfang Sansan also looked pained, "I know this is unfair to An Ruo Xing, but we have no choice but to do this, and we can only do it this way. Moreover, we can't let An Ruo Xing know."
"Yes."
Fang Che sighed, "This is something we can't avoid. To be safe, we have no choice but to do this."
Dongfang Sansan slowly nodded.
"What's the grudge between An Ruo Xing and the Seal Deity Palace?" Fang Che asked.
"An Ruo Xing's lover was originally a couple with the Seal Deity Palace. They grew up together, depended on each other for life, and were deeply in love."
Dongfang Sansan sighed, "But An Ruo Xing is a cultivation genius, while the Seal Deity Palace's talent... is average."
"So An Ruo Xing's cultivation speed was very fast, but he couldn't stop to wait for the Seal Deity Palace. The Seal Deity Palace tried his best to catch up, but the distance only grew."
"So the Seal Deity Palace chose to venture out and joined an organization called the Three Mountain Society. It's just a sect, and it's neither good nor evil. But the leader of the Three Mountain Society, on a business trip, robbed the Guardian's things and killed several people, causing a manhunt."
"An Ruo Xing was in the team... The Seal Deity Palace secretly betrayed them and helped An Ruo Xing defeat the Three Mountain Society. The remnants of the Three Mountain Society later took revenge and killed the Seal Deity Palace's entire family."
"The Seal Deity Palace vowed revenge and pursued his enemies... After years of entanglement and grudges... It's quite complicated. Later, to personally kill his enemies, the Seal Deity Palace joined the Blood Slaughter Sect."
"Too many complicated things happened afterward. By chance, An Ruo Xing died trying to save the Seal Deity Palace..."
Dongfang Sansan sighed, "You could say it's fate playing with people. The Seal Deity Palace wasn't bad in the beginning, but after An Ruo Xing's death, the Seality Palace's personality changed drastically, and he began to wreak havoc in the sect world... gradually establishing the name Blood Spirit Official, and even joined the Righteous Only Sect, participating in the Divine Gu's Divine Ascension, climbing higher and higher, regardless of the cost. If it weren't for you, I would've likely eradicated the Seal Deity Palace by now. Originally, the Iron Blood Fortress was a bait I arranged in the southeast, but since this change has happened, abandoning the plan to eradicate the Seal Deity Palace is a small matter, and it's fine to give up."
"As for the specific details, I'm not very clear either. The people involved are the best source. But for the Seal Deity Palace's entire life, he may not even be willing to bring it up."
Fang Che nodded silently.
"There's also one more thing... An Ruo Xing wants to tear the Seal Deity Palace into ten thousand pieces, eating his flesh and wearing his skin; but no matter what, the Seal Deity Palace will not kill An Ruo Xing."
Dongfang Sansan reminded, "So you must also be clear about this point."
"Yes."
Dongfang Sansan picked up the teacup and smiled, "Drink tea."
Fang Che also picked up the teacup, "Master, I have a question to ask."
"What question?"
"It's about the Divine Metal. I now have two pieces. If I refine the Divine Metal, will there be a conflict with the previous one?"
"There won't be a conflict."
Dongfang Sansan smiled, "The Divine Metal's spirituality is from a long period of loneliness. With a companion, they will instead promote each other. Moreover, they are of the same origin, so there won't be a conflict, but there will be competition."
"Whoever appears in battle more often will prove that they are more valued by the master. Guide them well, and let them compete for your favor."
"So that's the case, then I'm relieved."
Fang Che's heart finally settled.
Dongfang Sansan smiled, "The more Divine Metal, the better."
"Yes."
"The Divine Metal, do you know its origin?"
Dongfang Sansan asked.
"I don't know."
"I can only guess because this thing is too mysterious."
Dongfang Sansan said, "I guess it's... in this boundless starry sky, from ancient times to the present, there have been constant battles among the gods."
"And the so-called Divine Metal's spirituality is actually fragments of the gods' souls or fragments of spirit weapons..."
Dongfang Sansan smiled, "But this is just my guess, and it may not be true. We can only wait until we have the qualification to know more and then verify it."
"Yes."
"Also, what you want."
"Dongfang Sansan flipped her hand, and a ring appeared in her palm, unassuming and unremarkable like a wooden hoop.
