Chapter 208: Planning
So he began a nearly hundred-year-long layout.
Although Bai Hua was the head of the sect, he focused more on cultivation and did not intervene much in the management of the sect.
After he broke through the questioning state and took charge of the Biyun Peak, he took the opportunity to place his own confidants in the shops set up by the Sanchongtian Jinxuan Sect, secretly controlling the resources of the sect and seeking personal gain for himself.
He also used the proceeds from his private gains to bribe the people of the Shayue Sect and even cultivated his own power in the Shayue Sect.
After that battle, in order to quickly restore the vitality of the sect and overwhelm the Jinxuan Sect, the Shayue Sect did not hesitate to over-exploit the spiritual mines it controlled, causing the spiritual mines to dry up faster.
Many people in the Shayue Sect knew that if the Shayue Sect continued like this, after the spiritual mines were completely exhausted, it would not be able to maintain the scale of the Shayue Sect in the past by relying solely on the Sanchongtian shop as a source of income.
At that time, there would be only two ways for the Shayue Sect to either reduce the size of the sect or to fight against other sects before the spiritual mines were exhausted and seize the resources of other sects.
If the size of the sect is reduced, it will inevitably be bullied by the old enemy Jinxuan Sect, and the first choice for seizing other sects' resources is also Jinxuan Sect.
It is precisely because of this internal and external troubles that many people in Shayue Sect have been successfully bribed by him.
And in Jinxuan Sect, many elders have also been secretly assigned to his command.
After years of planning, the time is ripe, and the trace of the soul of his child with Jingxian has been restored after many years of nurturing.
The child is the continuation of Jingxian in this world. In order to let him witness his revenge with his own eyes, more than 20 years ago, he personally integrated his soul into the body of a pregnant woman in the secular world.
After the child was born, he eliminated the family, and took Xuanjing as his adopted son and raised him secretly, naming him Xuanjing!
This name comes from him and Lin Jingxian.
He took one character from his real name Lu Xuanyun and one character from Lin Jingxian's name to form the child's name, in this special way, to commemorate his past with Jingxian.
In order to prevent his relationship with Xuan Jing from being discovered, he did not let Xuan Jing inherit his surname.
Later, in order to avoid suspicion, he bribed the elders in the sect to accept Xuan Jing into the Jinxuan Sect, and secretly operated to inherit the great righteousness of the sect leader's Taoist tradition, so that Xuan Jing became Bai Hua, the sect leader who had not yet accepted disciples, and became Bai Hua's only disciple.
His move was to monitor Bai Hua's movements and to let Xuan Jing kill Bai Hua himself in the future, so that Bai Hua would experience the pain of being betrayed by the closest person!
In order to prevent Xuan Jing from being suspected by Bai Hua, before Xuan Jing entered the sect, he used a secret technique to extract Xuan Jing's previous memories of getting along with him. It was not until Xuan Jing became Bai Hua's disciple and broke through the Transcendent Realm to completely gain Bai Hua's trust that he found an opportunity to complete Xuan Jing's memory and told him his overall plan to let Xuan Jing participate.
After a hundred years of scheming, buying people's hearts, and secretly laying out, he felt that the situation was under his control. To achieve the goal of subverting the two sects, he only lacked an opportunity!
That is the re-emergence of war between the Jinxuan and Shayue sects.
However, the two sects were both seriously injured in the war a hundred years ago. Although there have been minor frictions in recent years, they have been very restrained and there has been no direct conflict.
But it doesn't matter. If there is no conflict, he can create a conflict!
He used the hidden line in Shayue Sect in advance to trick Situ Xiangnan, an elder who was very close to the head of Shayue Sect, out of Shayue Sect and killed him by surprise.
Then, when Ma Liang, the eldest disciple of Yanfeng of Jinxuan Sect, left the sect, he pretended to be Situ Xiangnan, injured Ma Liang with Situ Xiangnan's tea poison, and deliberately let him go, and followed him secretly, wanting him to escape back to Jinxuan Sect to provoke conflicts between the two sects.
Unexpectedly, he was not familiar with the use of tea poison, and made some mistakes, causing Ma Liang to die halfway.
Fortunately, Ma Liang met Duan Qing, who brought the news of Ma Liang's death back to Jinxuan Sect, and let Sanyan Zhenren infer that Ma Liang died at the hands of Situ Xiangnan of Shayue Sect.
Although Sanyan Zhenren joined the sect several decades later than him and has only been the head for more than 20 years, he has considerable influence in the sect. Although he and Qingchen Zhenren of Jingshui Peak are not on good terms on the surface, they are actually on the same page, and they have always advocated peace between the two sects.
But after Ma Liang's death, as he expected, Sanyan Zhenren's position was indeed biased, but he still failed to provoke a war between the two sects.
So he took advantage of the rotation of the spirit mine and sent Xuan Jing to participate in the rotation as an insider, using the Fire Spirit Pill as bait to eliminate Elder Li, whose position in the sect was erratic, and put the blame on Situ Xiangnan, the elder of Shayue Sect who had died at his hands.
As a result, the hatred of Shayue Sect in the sect became even greater, and the people he bribed in Shayue Sect continued to fan the flames in Shayue Sect, and the undercurrent in Shayue Sect was also turbulent, and the number of people advocating war increased day by day.
After Elder Li died, he volunteered to go to Shayue Sect with True Man Sanyan and True Man Qingchen to seek an explanation. Under his instructions, he interfered with the negotiations through the secret line of Shayue Sect, which made the negotiations of the three people fruitless and they had to return empty-handed.
On the way back to the sect, he even let the secret line of Shayue Sect sneak attack the three people, injuring True Man Sanyan, further intensifying the conflict between the two sects.
The matter was very successful. After the three returned to the sect, Jinxuan Sect entered a state of war readiness, with a momentum of war about to start.
At that time, the spiritual mine of Shayue Sect was close to exhaustion, and with the help of his secret line, it was ready to go to war with Jinxuan Sect and plunder Jinxuan Sect's resources.
Seeing that the war between the two sects was about to start, his wish was also to be fulfilled. Unexpectedly, the ancestor of Shayue Sect suddenly returned to the sect, and with the cultivation of the spiritual sea realm above the heart, he strongly reorganized the sect and suppressed the momentum of Shayue Sect to go to war.
Once the momentum of the Shayue Sect's war was extinguished, the Jinxuan Sect had a leader like Baihua Zhenren who was not warlike, and the old dog Tongnian had always been in favor of peace, so the war situation against the Shayue Sect took a sharp turn for the worse!
Seeing that his plan for many years was going to fail, he was helpless. The Shayue Sect was under pressure from the Linghai Realm Patriarch, and he had no way to deal with it no matter how many spiritual stones he had, so he could only continue to endure and wait for the opportunity.
Fortunately, after the Shayue Patriarch suppressed the momentum of war, he had been hiding in the sect and did not interfere in the affairs of the sect, so that his secret line could be preserved.
God did not let him down, and the opportunity came again in a few years.
And that opportunity was personally delivered by the Shayue Sect Patriarch!
During the opening period of the Yongling Valley, which was once every ten years in Xiaonan Realm, the disciples of the Shayue Sect, under the instructions of the Shayue Sect Patriarch, almost slaughtered all the disciples of other sects in the Yongling Valley for some purpose.
After learning the news, he was ecstatic and couldn't help but sigh that God helped me!
What made him even more excited was that the opening of the Yongling Valley was so big that even one of the Middle-earth envoys was trapped in the Yongling Valley, forcing another Middle-earth person to return to the Middle-earth for help.
According to the news from his Shayue Sect's secret agent, the ancestor of the Shayue Sect was afraid that people from the Middle-earth would investigate what happened in the Yongling Valley, so he secretly left the Shayue Sect and slipped back to the Middle-earth not long after the incident.
