Chapter 3423: Nice Flattery, Keep It Up in the Future
Facing Little i’s question, Lin Moyu said, "This has to do with the factions in the Question Dao Sect. Unlike ordinary families, the Question Dao Sect’s power is actually held by several elders."
"The three ninth-level elders each have their own factions. Below them are even more complex interest relationships. The three factions compete with each other and are not harmonious."
"Usually, the sect is led by Wang Hong’s faction. Wang Hong is also the strongest among the three elders in terms of strength and influence."
"This ti, by killing Wang Hong, I actually gave them a chance to turn the tables and take charge. Do you think they would seize this opportunity?"
Little i knew Lin Moyu was right, but she was more curious, "How does Teacher know all this?"
Lin Moyu said, "By looking at information, and then observing their reactions just now. Wang Hong’s faction kept their distance from others, and the other two factions did the sa. So this information isn’t hard to deduce."
The more Little i listened, the more reasonable it seed. Indeed, things were exactly as Lin Moyu said. "Teacher is still amazing. Nothing escapes Teacher’s eyes."
Lin Moyu chuckled, "Little i’s flattery skills are getting better and better."
The Cloud-Piercing Sword flew through the sky at an astonishing speed, leaving the Question Dao Sect’s territory and entering the Broken Sky Domain.
...
In the Question Dao Sect, the disciples Han Xingyu sent to investigate Lin Moyu’s information returned.
But the information they brought back surprised Han Xingyu sowhat.
The Lu Feng Chamber of Comrce actually refused to sell any information about Lin Moyu. Lin Moyu’s information had been strictly confidential, and no one except the Three Ancestors could access it.
This made Han Xingyu feel Lin Moyu was even more mysterious.
A fifth-level Dao Venerable actually had the power to slaughter the Question Dao Sect. Such a figure was unheard of.
"Fortunately, he only ca for Wang Hong and didn’t really intend to slaughter our Question Dao Sect." Han Xingyu still felt a bit uneasy. Having just struggled back from the brink of death, even a ninth-level elder would find it hard to recover quickly.
Song Quan said, "Should we report this matter to the Founding Ancestor?"
Han Xingyu thought for a mont, "We should ntion it, but wait a few more days. First, send soone to investigate. Although the Lu Feng Chamber of Comrce won’t say anything, a figure like this must have left so traces. We can inquire from other sources."
Song Quan said, "I seem to rember Wang Hong ntioning that he had t him at the Genius Conference so years ago. Wang Hong said he wanted to make a move then, but because the Three Ancestors were present, he didn’t have the chance. Later he ca back to seclude himself, and the matter was dropped."
Han Xingyu chuckled, "I guess Wang Hong never imagined he was nurturing a tiger that would eventually devour him."
Song Quan said, "I think this matter isn’t over yet. The Founding Ancestor is after all the ancestor of Wang Hong’s lineage. When he learns that Wang Hong is dead and his bloodline legacy is cut off, he might fly into a rage."
Han Xingyu said disdainfully, "So what if he flies into a rage? We didn’t do anything wrong, so there’s nothing to worry about. At most, we’ll slightly alter the situation when we report it. No matter how he tries to settle accounts, it won’t co down to us."
Song Quan felt this made sense, "That’s right. Then we should discuss this carefully and not let anything slip. Do you think we should tell him about this?"
Han Xingyu thought for a mont, "It’s good to ntion it, but we must be careful about this matter. We can’t let outsiders know."
Lin Moyu didn’t know that the Question Dao Sect’s Founding Ancestor was actually the ancestral progenitor of Wang Hong’s bloodline, and like Gu Hanyu, was at the Great Dao realm.
However, even if he knew, Lin Moyu wouldn’t change what he intended to do because of this.
He took his Dao heart as his foundation. Once he made a decision, he wouldn’t easily change it.
...
The scenery in the Broken Sky Domain was very unique. Everywhere in the Broken Sky Domain, one could see cliffs and countless truncated high mountains. So mountains were tens of thousands of ters high, or even over a hundred thousand ters, soaring into the clouds.
The peaks of many mountains were completely inaccessible to people. It was said that even ninth-level Dao Venerable elders couldn’t go up, as they would be blocked by an invisible force.
On so mountain peaks, water flowed down, forming waterfalls. This kind of water was called heavenly water.
On other mountain peaks, yellow sand fell like dust, mixing with the clouds and mist to form the unique sand-mist environnt of the Broken Sky Domain.
These mountain peaks, seen from afar, looked like swords that had cut through the sky, hence the na Broken Sky Domain.
This was Lin Moyu’s first ti coming to the Broken Sky Domain and seeing this scenery.
Little i said, "This place looks exactly the sa as before."
Lin Moyu smiled and said, "Little i has been here before?"
Little i nodded, "I’ve been here twice. The first ti was when I was at the Heavenly Venerable realm. At that ti, I ca with an elder from the Holy Land. The second ti I was already a seventh-level elder. But both tis were for the sa thing."
"The Dongfang family in the Broken Sky Domain holds a Nine Heavens Competition every hundred years. The two tis I ca were both to participate in the Nine Heavens Competition."
Lin Moyu quickly found information in his mind about what the Nine Heavens Competition was. In the center of the Broken Sky Domain, there was a mountain peak called the Nine Heavens Peak.
The Nine Heavens Peak was the largest and highest mountain in the Broken Sky Domain. It was said that it connected directly to the Outer Great Dao. If soone could reach the top, they could truly ascend to the nine heavens and see a different world.
But not everyone was qualified to climb the Nine Heavens Peak. One needed to participate in the competition to gain qualification.
The Dongfang family held a competition every hundred years. All large and small families in the Broken Sky Domain could send disciples to participate.
At the sa ti, the Dongfang family would invite several other top powers to co and participate in the Nine Heavens Competition.
As the hegemon of the Broken Sky Domain, the Dongfang family could have monopolized the Nine Heavens Peak, but they chose to open it to the world, showing the Dongfang family’s extraordinary spirit.
Lin Moyu revealed a slight smile, "So this is the Nine Heavens Competition. The Nine Heavens Peak is worth seeing. If it’s on our way this ti, we’ll go take a look."
Little i smiled and said, "Teacher, your mood seems to have improved since the Question Dao Sect trip."
Before, because Gu Hanyu had been taken away, Lin Moyu’s mood had always been not very good.
But after the Question Dao Sect trip, his mood began to improve. Little i could clearly feel the change in Lin Moyu before and after.
Lin Moyu said, "I resolved a big karma, and my thoughts have beco clear. If I had dragged it on for so more days, Wang Hong might have had a breakthrough. Once he beca a Pseudo-Great Dao realm being, it would have been troubleso to deal with."
Little i flattered him, "Even if he really beca a Pseudo-Great Dao realm being, Teacher would still have a way to deal with him."
Lin Moyu chuckled, "Nice flattery. Keep it up in the future."
The Cloud-Piercing Sword flew through the Broken Sky Domain. This was the Dongfang family’s territory, but the Dongfang family’s control over their sphere of influence wasn’t very tight, even sowhat loose.
Strangely, under these circumstances, the large and small families in the Broken Sky Domain all followed the Dongfang family’s lead.
As long as the Dongfang family gave an order, it was almost always obeyed without question. Almost no one would defy the Dongfang family.
In Lin Moyu’s view, the Dongfang family truly ruled by virtue.
He thought of Dongfang Wuwen. Among the many geniuses, Dongfang Wuwen’s cultivation was top-tier, and he was also kind and gentle, a refined young man.
He had once explored the Slaughter God Sect’s ruins with Lin Moyu. Although he ultimately failed, his strength was undeniable.
With Dongfang Wuwen’s talent, becoming a Great Dao realm being might be uncertain, but at least becoming a ninth-level elder wouldn’t be a problem.
Half a day later, Lin Moyu saw the Floating City.
Looking from ten thousand miles away, yellow sand danced in the sky. The city appeared and disappeared in the yellow sand, as if floating and drifting.
