Chapter 119 Huangfu Ji

The black priests quickly finished the inspection, and naturally found nothing. With the sound of the whistle, the steam train slowly started again.

Audrey whispered: "Are we safe?"

Qi Xuansu shook his head: "It's too early to say this. It's just Sophia, with limited influence, more limited to St. York, but it's hard to say if it involves the Ministry of Gospel. Their tentacles are all over the northern continent, and even the southern continent is not immune. Don't you know a high-level traitor in Tawanting?"

Audrey stopped talking.

In fact, Qi Xuansu could understand why Audrey asked again and again. She wanted to get a positive answer from Qi Xuansu to make herself feel at ease. As for whether it is really safe, that is something Qi Xuansu has to consider. This is a bit self-deception, and it is also a behavior of seeking security from others. I am like Pu Liu, and I have to find someone to rely on. Zhang Yuelu never does such things. Because of this, when Zhang Yuelu hates someone, she will not put on a cold and unmoved appearance. When Zhang Yuelu likes someone, she will not become a soft and sticky little woman. In addition, her temper is not good, her figure is not soft, and her waist is too hard, which makes her look "hateful".

This also leads to a strange phenomenon. A girl of heaven who is famous in the Taoist sect, with a good family background, good looks, and a good future, has few suitors. Occasionally, there are a few who don't want to die. Looking at the end of Li Tianzhen and Wang Danqing, they are probably scared away.

In a sense, Zhang Yuelu is not a very likable person, but Qi Xuansu still likes Zhang Yuelu. If it were someone else, he would rather continue to be alone. At this time, Qi Xuansu couldn't help thinking that if it wasn't Audrey, but Zhang Yuelu was around, he wouldn't have to be so cautious, and he could even kill directly. As long as it wasn't the immortal who took action, he would be fearless. Why bother with a few little priests?

Qi Xuansu sighed, now he could only take things one step at a time.

The train continued to move forward.

Qi Xuansu was multitasking. In addition to the incarnation of Bingjie, his original body was still in Saint York, learning more about the situation through Strawney, and keeping in touch with Wu Niang, Li Mingzhen and others.

Later, Qi Xuansu also contacted Lu Yujue, the assistant in charge of the South Continent.

"Chief, I have informed the West Daomen of the specific situation as you wish." Lu Yujue is the cousin of Lu Yushu and the cousin of Lu Yuting, so the high-level circle of the Daomen seems to be large, but it is not actually large. If you count carefully, they are all relatives and friends, and there are acquaintances inside and outside. How can ordinary poor children squeeze in?

Qi Xuansu asked, "What does the Western Dao Sect say?"

Lu Yujue smiled bitterly, "The Western Dao Sect was already ready to make a move. The rebellion of Sun Zhongnu just gave them an excuse. The three great masters of the Western Dao Sect decided to take action."

Although the Western Dao Sect is not in the organization of the Taoist Sect, it cannot be said to be completely independent of the Taoist Sect. It still has to rely on the support of the Taoist Sect, which means that it is more or less obedient to orders. Since the Western Dao Sect sent back the "Seven Birds and Five Fire Fans" and the relics of Tan Taiyun and nominally returned to the Taoist Sect, the Western Dao Sect has also completed reforms from top to bottom, imitating the Taoist Sect's nine-grade and twelve-level system, integrating the internal affairs, but there is no grand master.

However, the reform of the Western Dao Sect was not thorough, and the system of the lower-level Taoist priests was chaotic, resulting in the Taoist Sect not recognizing the grades of some Taoist priests of the Western Dao Sect.

There are a total of nine high-level Taoist priests of the Western Dao Sect who are truly recognized by the Taoist Sect, namely three great masters and six masters.

There is no prefix of Pingzhang and Canzhi here.

The reason is very simple. The full name of the Canzhi Zhenren is "Chanzhi Jinque Yishi Zhenren", and the full name of Pingzhang Da Zhenren is "Pingzhang Jinque Yishi Da Zhenren". The key lies in the four words "Jinque Yishi". If the prefixes of Pingzhang and Canzhi are really given, doesn't it mean that the West Daomen also has the qualifications to participate in the Jinque discussion? Then it can influence the major decisions of the Daomen and the selection of the Grand Master, which is something that the Five Grand Masters cannot tolerate.

The attitude of the Five Grand Masters is also very clear. Of course, they welcome the West Daomen to return to the Daomen, and also welcome the high-level people of the West Daomen to enter the Jinque to participate in the discussion. However, there is a big premise that the West Daomen must fully accept the Daomen's reorganization and give up the current semi-independent state of the vassal. As long as the West Daomen does not completely return to the Daomen, it cannot be given the power of the Jinque discussion.

Therefore, these nine high-level people of the West Daomen recognized by the Daomen only have grades, which are somewhat similar to the super-grade Taoist status of the Great Xuan Emperor, and have no actual positions.

Of course, the treatment given by the Daomen is not the White Board Da Zhenren and the White Board Zhenren, but the corresponding Pingzhang Da Zhenren and Canzhi Zhenren. It is equivalent to the Great Immortal Pingzhang without Pingzhang and the Immortal Canzhi without Canzhi.

The three great immortals are Huangfu Zhao, Gongfu, and Tantai Zhenxiao.

It is worth mentioning that although the three families of the Western Dao Sect today emphasize personal dependence and blood inheritance, and have inherited the dregs of the Zhang family and the Li family, the Gongguan and Tantai Yun of the year actually did not leave any offspring. There have always been different opinions about the relationship between the current Gong family, the Tantai family and the two ancestors. Some say that the nephew was adopted, some say that the nephew changed his surname, and some say that the disciple and the adopted son changed their surnames. In short, it is a mess.

Anyway, these three families insist that they are the authentic inheritance, just like the Li family insists that they are the descendants of the Supreme Daozu. Don't ask nonsense, whoever asks will die.

There are many differences among the three families, and there are also many consensuses. This is not contradictory. The differences are due to interests, and the consensus is also due to interests. Their consensus is that the Western Dao Sect must first create established facts to force the Dao Sect to invest more attention and support.

So Qi Xuansu's task is not only to mediate internal conflicts, but also to stabilize the West Dao Sect. He can fight back in kind, but he must not start a large-scale war and expand the situation. Because the Dao Sect now lacks financial support and has too many internal problems.

Qi Xuansu expected this, and the West Dao Sect would definitely make a big fuss. But it is impossible to hide this matter from the West Dao Sect. Even if they hide it, the West Dao Sect must have its own intelligence system in the Northern Continent, and they will know about it and take action. Instead of hiding it and causing a gap between the two sides, it is better to be honest.

Qi Xuansu asked: "What exactly does this so-called further action mean?"

Lu Yujue said: "The three great masters have sent people to the Northern Continent, nominally to assist in the retreat and eliminate the traitors. As for what their real intention is, it is hard to say."

Qi Xuansu fell into deep thought.

Lu Yujue added: "As far as I know, although there was no large-scale mobilization of troops, there were quite a few masters above the level of heaven and man, and their plans were not small."

Qi Xuansu asked: "Who is the leader?"

Lu Yujue replied: "The youngest of the nine real people in the Western Dao Sect, Huangfu Ji, known as the 'Tiger of the Western Dao Sect'."

The Western Dao Sect is special. There are no real people in the ordinary sense. All real people who can be officially recognized by the Dao Sect are equivalent to the real people of the knowledge. Huangfu Ji, the youngest real person in the Western Dao Sect, is of course not the same as Qi Xuansu. He is not young now, and is already over 40.

In the Western Dao Sect, Huangfu Ji is considered a hardliner and radical. The intention of the Western Dao Sect to send him out is very obvious.

Qi Xuansu certainly understood this and said, "We can't escalate the situation at this time. We can be tough, but now is not the time to decide the outcome. The situation of the Dao Sect does not support it, no matter which side, it does not support it. These people are stubborn and try to coerce the Dao Sect, which is absolutely not allowed by the Dao Sect."

Lu Yujue said, "That's right. According to relevant regulations, I have reported it to the main hall in the form of a formal official letter."

Qi Xuansu said, "Let the head of the hall talk to the great master Dan Tai Zhen Xiao. You continue to pay close attention to the movements of the West Dao Sect and report at any time."

"Yes." Lu Yujue responded.

After the conversation, Qi Xuansu fell into deep thought.

The West Dao Sect has two immortals, Tan Tai Zhen Xiao representing the Tan Tai family and Gong Fu representing the Gong family. The West Dao Sect is different from the Dao Sect. The external environment is very bad, so there is no large group of flower garden Taoists in the West Dao Sect. Under the cruel selection and elimination system, there must be many masters in the West Dao Sect. It is not difficult to understand that there are two immortals. Many people may not be top talents, but after going through various life and death difficulties, they are like being washed away, reborn, and can also achieve great success later in life.

In addition, the West Dao Sect attaches great importance to blood inheritance, and has never advocated the use of young people like the Dao Sect to prevent the lack of successors. In other words, the West Dao Sect will not be promoted based on age, and there is no saying that one step is slow and the other step is slow, so the talent training within the West Dao Sect is another direction.

Although the Huangfu family does not have immortals, it can stand on equal footing with the other two families, not entirely relying on the ancestral shadow, but has its own confidence. Huangfu Zhao and Huangfu Ji, father and son, are both pseudo-immortals. Although Huangfu Zhao is not as good as the other two of the same generation, he has a good son, and Huangfu Ji is far better than the peers of the other two families. The father and son jointly support the Huangfu family, which is not inferior to the Gong family and the Tantai family.

If you think about it carefully, this is reasonable. The higher the cultivation, the more difficult it is to have offspring. The two immortals have no children, and the younger generation of the family is nephews. Huangfu Zhao's cultivation was weaker, but he gave birth to a good son.

Although the three families were in a three-way balance, they had different thoughts and many disagreements, but there had to be a leader who represented the entire Xidao Sect at certain times, just like the three deputy masters of the Taoist sect. No matter how much disagreement there was, there had to be a rotating master to represent the master.

The representative of the Xidao Sect in this generation was Tan Tai Zhen Xiao. However, Huangfu Ji is expected to become the next generation of the master of the Xidao Sect.

Although Huangfu Ji was born in a prominent family, he was quite similar to Qi Xuansu in some aspects. They both relied on real merits to get to the top, and their nearly perfect resume made it impossible for others to find fault. It's just that this person has a bad temper, is unruly, and has a strong temper. This is also determined by the external environment. After all, the Xidao Sect is in frequent wars, and there is no soil for flower garden Taoists.
