Chapter 220: The First Allocation of Resources in Dan Temple
After Gu Xing took the Seven Veins Divine Wood Leaf, Hua Changxi and Meng Qingyao each picked up a stick of third-grade incense. Perhaps both of them had a hidden desire to compete with each other, and they inserted the incense into the Divine Wood Cauldron almost at the same time.
It was too late for Xia Zhen to stop it. Only when he saw the two elixirs burning at the same time did he breathe a sigh of relief.
At this moment, he was suddenly shocked and realized that in his heart, he actually felt that Meng Qingyao, who was carefully trained by the Xia family, might not be as good as Hua Changxi.
This thought made Xia Zhen's eyelids twitch wildly, and he couldn't calm down for a long time.
The third-grade incense burned out quickly, and two three-veined divine wood leaves were suspended in the air. Meng Qingyao just turned and looked at Xia Zhen, while Hua Changxi waved directly to Gu Xing: "Senior Gu, come and take the divine wood leaves."
Seeing Hua Changxi's self-righteous attitude, Gu Xing did not pretend to be humble. He stepped forward before Xia Zhen and took both leaves of the sacred tree as if it were a matter of course.
Xia Zhen came back to his senses and looked at this scene with his eyes widened.
In his expectation, the two low-level secret realms should be managed by him and Gu Xing respectively.
Now all three secret realms are in Gu Xing's hands. Even if he can participate in the management of the secret realms in the future, he will only play a supporting role.
Gu Xing looked at Xia Zhen and said, "Fellow Daoist Xia, after I have figured out how to manage the three open secret realms, I will discuss the specific management details with you."
Xia Zhen was really feeling quite aggrieved at the moment. As a protector, he should be the first person in charge of the Medical Department, but now, he could only condescend to be under Gu Xing.
Although he was full of indignation, Xia Zhen managed to control his emotions.
He knew that although he was a protector, Gu Xing, as the gatekeeper of the Dan Sheng Temple, was more legitimate than him in managing the public secret realm.
"Okay, in order for the Dan Sheng Temple to reappear in the world as soon as possible, I will definitely assist Fellow Daoist Gu in managing the three public secret realms."
Seeing that Gu Xing was the highest authority in the three open secret realms, Wei Zhenjie and Zhang Tianshi smiled at each other. Even Prince Shou's expression brightened a lot when he saw that the Protector Family did not gain any benefits.
As for the other people present, from the Medical Department, since the people from the Guardian Family had competed with them for the position of Museum Master as soon as they arrived, they were naturally happy to see Xia Zhen being defeated.
The cultivators from the Guardian Family all felt aggrieved for Xia Zhen. In their opinion, the Guardian had made great contributions to the Four Spiritual Realms and should be supported by everyone.
Dongfang Hao didn't have much objection. Hua Changxi was actually not wrong. It was actually the fairest and just thing to let Gu Xing be in charge of the three public secret realms.
just
While everyone else's attention was focused on the three public secret realms, Dongfang Hao focused his attention on Hua Changxi.
In terms of taking the initiative, Qingyao is indeed not as good as Hua Changxi.
Yes, Qingyao is the younger generation that the Xia family focuses on training, and the Meng family is also an old-established family of practitioners. She has never lacked resources for cultivation since she was a child, so she is definitely no match for Hua Changxi, who comes from a small family.
Meng Yuchuan was also very dissatisfied with Hua Changxi. He said in a cold voice: "Qingyao is too polite, and Hua Changxi is like a vicious dog seeing food when she sees good things. She has no idea what decency and humility are. Qingyao will definitely suffer if she goes against her."
When Dongfang Hao heard this, his brows immediately frowned.
Dongfang Xu also disagreed: "Brother Meng, your words are too harsh."
Meng Yuchuan thought of the Dongfang brothers' tempers and softened his tone: "I was overreacting. I was just too worried about Qingyao. You really can't be too humble to a cultivator of a low birth like Hua Changxi. They are all very difficult to get along with."
Dongfang Xu disagreed: "Whether a person is easy to get along with or not has nothing to do with his or her background."
Meng Yuchuan smiled and said, "Brother Xu, you still lack experience. People of low birth are very concerned about gains and losses, and they have to calculate everything. Why does Hua Changxi have a bad relationship with his family? Isn't it because they are calculating everything?"
Dongfang Xu felt that Meng Yuchuan was not a member of the Hua family and was not clear about the internal situation of the Hua family, so he should not make random judgments. However, he could not find a reason to refute and was too lazy to continue arguing.
Seeing that Dongfang Xu and Dongfang Hao did not respond, Meng Yuchuan did not say anything else.
All eighteen incense sticks were lit, and the confrontation and competition caused by the sudden appearance of the protector in the Medical Bureau was over.
However, the impact has just begun. The eighteen secret realms bestowed by the sacred tree can be said to be the first allocation of resources of the Dan Sheng Temple.
Those who obtain the secret realm, because they control the resources in the secret realm, are considered to have become the first group of powerful people in the holy land.
As long as they can protect this location and manage the secret realm well, when the Dan Temple reappears in the future, these people will be the elders of the holy land.
Except for a few people, most of the people present were from powerful families and were familiar with the operation of power. Those who had obtained the secret realm were thinking about finding followers; those who did not have the secret realm were also looking for the secret realm master, intending to divide up the secret realm resources.
The first ones to be targeted were naturally Hua Changxi and Meng Qingyao, who had obtained a high-quality secret realm.
Meng Qingyao has the support of the Xia family and the Meng family, so it is not easy to get a share from her. But Hua Changxi is different. He has no backing or connections, comes from a low background, and doesn't know much, so he is the best target for "division".
Even Xia Zhen and Wei Zhenjie were thinking about how to win over Hua Changxi.
Xia Zhen spoke first, smiling at the people who had obtained the secret realm: "Everyone, in order to restore the holy land as soon as possible, I will stay in the Medical Department to assist you in the future. As for how to manage the Shenmu Secret Realm, I think it is necessary for all the secret realm masters to gather together to discuss it. What do you think?"
In his opinion, gathering all the secret realm masters together would not only make it easier for him to grasp the movements and thoughts of each secret realm master, but also allow him to legitimately intervene in the development direction of the Dan Sheng Temple through discussion.
The people who obtained the secret realm include Hua Changxi, Mu Qingying, Yuan Tianchou, Shen Qianfan, Zhang Tianshi, and people from the four royal palaces with different surnames from the Medical Bureau; and people from the five major guardian families and Meng Qingyao from the guardian families.
Except for Hua Changxi and Shen Qianfan, all these people have their own social circles and know the importance and necessity of building personal connections.
At this moment, their idea was that since they were all people from the Holy Land, they would definitely work together when the Dan Holy Temple appeared in the world in the future. They would see each other every day, so it was necessary to make friends and get to know each other in advance.
Therefore, Mu Qingying and others did not speak out in opposition.
Just when Xia Zhen thought everyone would agree, Hua Changxi, who didn't like being constrained, spoke up: "Senior Xia, since the sacred tree has given me the secret realm, then how I want to manage the secret realm is my business. There is no need to discuss it."
Xia Zhen really felt that Hua Changxi was a bit like a rat shit. Doesn't this girl know what obedience is? He took a deep breath and said, "Hua Xiaoyou is wrong. The development of the secret realm is not just your business. It is related to the reappearance of the Dan Sheng Temple."
Hua Changxi hated people who talked about righteousness and responsibility but were selfish, so he interrupted her directly: "Senior Xia, you are a protector, not the master of the holy land. The reappearance of the Dan Sheng Temple is not something that can be discussed by a few masters of the secret realm together."
After saying that, he looked at the sky which was already getting late.
"Today is New Year's Eve. Aren't you going home to reunite with your families? It's getting late. I have to go home. I won't chat with you any more. Goodbye."
Looking at Hua Changxi walking away, everyone was dumbfounded. They had never seen someone who acted so self-willedly.
Prince Shou looked at Xia Zhen, who was so angry that his hair stood on end, and wanted to laugh out loud. He said to Chu Junhao beside him: "This Hua Changxi really doesn't give face to anyone."
Chu Junhao's mouth twitched. He didn't expect Hua Changxi to be so "free-spirited". He smiled and said, "People with true temperament are probably like this."
Zhang Tianshi was not very calm at this moment: "Although Hua Changxi and Changxin look exactly the same, their personalities are really..."
Wen Lanzhou took over the conversation: "They are really two completely opposite people. Junior Sister Chang Xin is the most considerate and thoughtful person." And Hua Changxi, she completely disregards the lives of others.
Zhang Tianshi thought of the Hua family's situation: "Hua Changxi's temper may be because no one taught her."
Wen Lanzhou nodded in agreement: "If Hua Changxi continues to be so reckless, she will definitely suffer a great loss. She has offended Senior Xia to death today."
Huo Yunxiao interrupted: "Hua Changxi's behavior is indeed a bit reckless, but I am a little envious of her. There are not many people who can live as freely as she does."
"comfortable?"
Jiexian of Xiangguo Temple heard this and shook his head with a smile: "Master Hua can't even do the most basic self-control, how can you be called free?"
