Chapter 747 748. No Face and the Five Mountains Attack

Yue Wenxuan's face showed no sign of surprise, and he calmly refused, "The position of deputy head of Fenglei Hall is too high. Please forgive me for not being able to accept it."

Yue Wenxuan actually refused such a high position, and everyone looked at him in surprise.

In addition to surprise, Chi Hongwen's eyes also showed a hint of displeasure. The smile on his face disappeared, and he said in a serious tone:
"This is an order from Chief Steward Yang himself. There is no room for refusal. Young Master Yue, you'd better obey the order."

Although Chi Hongwen's name is not very well-known in the martial arts world, he is a powerful figure within the Sun Moon Sect. His words are always law and few people dare to offend him.

Jiang Yuntian and others stood behind Chi Hongwen, secretly signaling to Yue Wenxuan, hoping that he would quickly accept the position.

It was supposed to be a happy thing for everyone. If Yue Wenxuan insisted on refusing and offended Chi Hongwen, everyone would think it was unnecessary.

Yue Wenxuan still said firmly: "Dean Chi respects Manager Yang so much, so Manager Yang must be a magnanimous person and will definitely understand the difficulties of his subordinates.

Please go back and tell Manager Yang that something went wrong with my training some time ago and I need to stay at home to recuperate.

The inner strength I cultivate is extremely dangerous. If I am not careful, I may go astray. If I want to completely eliminate the hidden dangers, I am afraid it will take two or three years of meditation.

I think the Huguang branch is a good place to recuperate. I will not move in the next two to three years. After I recover, I will go to the Blackwood Cliff and apologize to Chief Steward Yang. I also ask Dean Chi to explain to Chief Steward Yang after he returns."

No one expected that Yue Wenxuan would not give Dean Chi any face at all. It seemed that he did not respect Manager Yang very much in his words. They even heard a hint of sarcasm in his words.

There was a hint of worry in the eyes of Jiang Yuntian and others when they looked at Yue Wenxuan.

Everyone thinks he is too young and energetic!
Now everyone knows that the chief steward Yang Lianting has the power to control everything. As long as he says a word, no one in the sect dares to disobey him.

A few years ago, there were some high-ranking chief teachers who went against Chief Steward Yang, but none of them had a good ending. With these precedents, no one dared to disrespect Chief Steward Yang, even at the level of the ten elders.

Now Yue Wenxuan actually rejected Manager Yang's recruitment so firmly, and the reason he gave for the rejection was very far-fetched, which was simply a slap in Manager Yang's face.

Thinking of Manager Yang's brutal past, everyone felt uneasy.

Yue Wenxuan just wanted a few years of peace and quiet, but once he reached the Black Wood Cliff, how could he find peace and quiet?

The original body had just come down from the Blackwood Cliff, and he knew what the head teacher was like. He certainly would not fawn on Yang Lianting and the fake Dongfang Bubai, and he could not say those disgusting words.

His current martial arts level is still improving rapidly, and he is not yet sure he can deal with Dongfang Bubai. After two or three years, when he goes to Black Wood Cliff to meet Dongfang Bubai, there will be nothing to worry about.

Others were afraid of Yang Lianting, but he did not have this worry. Even if he angered Yang Lianting and was targeted by him, with the contributions he had just made, he would at most be targeted secretly, and Yang Lianting would not send people to hunt him down openly.

Although the Sun Moon Sect is in chaos now, the most basic rules are still in place. Even if Yang Lianting is extremely powerful, if he wants to target someone, he must have an obvious reason.

The Huguang branch was located in the far south. Even if Yang Lianting wanted to deal with Yue Wenxuan, he would be out of reach for the time being. Even if he had any plans, he would have to wait until he went to the chief priest of Heimu Cliff before he could take action.

Ever since Chi Hongwen joined Yang Lianting, his power has been ranked second only to Yang Lianting. He no longer even takes Xiang Wentian, the current Right Envoy of Light, seriously.

Apart from the Fenglei Hall leader Tong Baixiong, that stinky and hard stone in the toilet, who still refused to give him face, even the Saint Lady had to give him some face. He hadn't been rejected for a long time, which made him very embarrassed and annoyed.

Chi Hongwen looked at Yue Wenxuan with a sharp look in his eyes, and said with a gloomy face:

"It is said that young people are full of vigor. I have experienced the unruly temper of Young Master Yue."

Seeing that Chi Hongwen did not immediately turn hostile, Yue Wenxuan's tone also softened a little, "I'm not trying to offend Dean Chi and Manager Yang. Dean Chi and I hit it off right away, and I'm willing to speak my mind. I just don't know if Dean Chi is still willing to listen to my complaints?"

"I'm all ears."

“It’s only been more than half a year since I came down from Blackwood Cliff, so I have a rough idea of ​​the current situation of the headquarters.

Tong Baixiong, the leader of Fenglei Hall, is the sworn brother of the leader. He has always been domineering in the headquarters and doesn't even give face to Manager Yang.

Over the years, Fenglei Hall has always been ruled by Tong Baixiong. I know that Manager Yang appointed me to the position of deputy hall master in order to disrupt Fenglei Hall and to go against Tong Baixiong.

Dean Chi knows my background. I have no connection with Tong Baixiong, so naturally I don't have any friendship with him. If I were asked to choose a side, I would definitely choose Yang Zongguan. There is no doubt about it.

But I am just fifteen years old now, and my martial arts are improving rapidly. Once I go up to the Black Wood Cliff, I am afraid that I will only be engaged in intrigue with Tong Baixiong. How can I have time to practice?

I am a martial artist, and what matters most to me is my own martial arts skills. As for what position I should hold, that will definitely have to be put aside for the time being.

In another two or three years, I should be able to make some progress in martial arts, and then I won't have any worries when I go up to the Black Wood Cliff again.

To be honest, I still don’t take Tong Baixiong seriously.”

Yue Wenxuan is still a young man after all, and he expresses his attitude so openly, which makes everyone feel that he is genuine and not pretentious.

Chi Hongwen's expression, which had originally become very serious, suddenly became smiling again.

He could accept the young man's rebellious attitude. What mattered was where Yue Wenxuan leaned. As long as Yue Wenxuan was willing to be used by Yang Zongguan, everything else was trivial.

Yue Wenxuan showed no respect for Tong Baixiong in front of so many people, which has clearly stated his attitude, and this is the most important point.

As for him not wanting to return to the head coach for the time being, it’s not a big deal.

The young man did not understand the charm of power and was only focused on practicing martial arts, always thinking about making a big splash after he mastered the skills. When he truly gained power, his mentality would naturally change.

Yang Lianting wanted to promote Yue Wenxuan to the position of deputy head of Fenglei Hall because he was impressed by his martial arts. If Yue Wenxuan's strength was not good enough, even if he went to Fenglei Hall to mix sand, it would not have much effect.

Another point is that Chi Hongwen is not Yang Lianting after all, and he is even a little afraid of him. If he fails to do what Yang Lianting arranged, and Yue Wenxuan loses face, he will probably not have a good ending. Since Yue Wenxuan has spoken his true feelings and has clearly stood on the side, he will have an explanation when he returns.

Chi Hongwen continued with a smile: "Although Young Master Yue is a young man, he is very insightful. I admire you for being able to figure this out.

I already know what you're thinking. There are ways to have the best of both worlds. I think this is the best way: you still have to take on the position of Fenglei Hall's deputy head. After all, this was arranged by Manager Yang himself, and we shouldn't be ungrateful to him.

Apart from this, you can also take on the position of leader of the Huguang branch. I can make the decision on this.

After two or three years, when Young Master Yue's martial arts skills have matured, it will not be too late for him to return to the chief sect and take over the position of deputy head of Fenglei Hall.

At that time, Young Master Yue will not find excuses to shirk responsibility, right? "

Yue Wenxuan patted his chest and assured: "I am really not looking for excuses to shirk my responsibilities. Now is the stage where my martial arts are improving the fastest. If you give me another two or three years, I will basically be able to achieve success.

If you want to make further progress after achieving some success, it will be a long and arduous process. I will get bored if I stay here all the time. After all, I am still young and I prefer a more lively environment.

After two or three years, I will definitely return to the headmaster. After all, the position of deputy head or head of Fenglei Hall is still attractive to me. Chief Steward Yang and Dean Fan think so highly of me, I don’t want to let you down.”

Chi Hongwen burst into laughter at Yue Wenxuan's straightforward statement, "As expected, a young hero like Young Master Yue is more courageous. I also think that the position of Fenglei Hall leader is more suitable for you.

When Young Master Yue returns to the headmaster's office, I will host a banquet for you and have a good time with you."

Although the mission this time was not very successful, it allowed Yue Wenxuan to clearly express his support for Manager Yang, which made the result even more perfect.

Since Yue Wenxuan has clearly chosen his side, Chi Hongwen must make some statement. He thought for a moment and said:
“Since Young Master Yue cannot take up the position of deputy leader of Fenglei Hall immediately, the reward for you this time is greatly discounted. I think you should be compensated in other ways.

But this is just my own decision, so these compensations can only be limited to the scope of my authority. If Young Master Yue is not satisfied, please don't think I am too stingy."

Yue Wenxuan said: "This is an unexpected surprise. I can't thank you enough, but I dare not despise it."

“It’s good that you don’t mind. There are only two things I can do to make up for it.

First, during the period when Young Master Yue is the leader, I can decide to exempt the Huguang Headquarters from paying annual tributes to the Grand Master.

Second, I can coordinate some magic weapons for Young Master Yue, but I can't give an exact promise on the quantity yet, but I can assure you that I will do my best to coordinate this matter."

These two points of compensation from Chi Hongwen were indeed not attractive to Yue Wenxuan.

But when Jiang Yuntian and others heard it, they were overjoyed.

The annual offerings made by the Huguang branch to the chief priest are not a small sum. If the annual offerings could be exempted, it would be a real benefit.

As for the magical weapons that Chi Hongwen agreed to coordinate, they were even more attractive to everyone.

For top masters, whether the weapon in their hands is sharp or not may not increase their strength that much. But for masters below the first-class level, if they have a magic weapon in their hands, the increase in combat power can be huge, even enough to allow them to fight against opponents of higher levels.

If the headquarters could coordinate some of the magic weapons and put them into the hands of grassroots believers, the overall strength of the Huguang branch would inevitably increase significantly.

After things were made clear, the solemn atmosphere from before was no longer there. Chi Hongwen and Yue Wenxuan were talking and laughing, with a feeling that they had met too late. Now all that was left was to become sworn brothers.

After drinking a cup of tea and changing the previous topic, Chi Hongwen continued:
"Brother Yue, there is one more thing I need to inform you of.

Before we set off, the Divine Cult had received a piece of news from other channels - Zuo Lengchan had already issued orders to the other four sects of the Five Mountains Sword Sect. I'm afraid that in a few days, the Five Mountains Sword Sect will march south in large numbers, and their destination will be the Huguang branch.

Brother Yue is now the leader of the Huguang branch. It is up to you to come up with a plan on how to deal with the situation going forward."

Ever since he killed Fei Bin and the others, Yue Wenxuan had expected this day to come, so he was not surprised and said calmly:

"As the saying goes, if an enemy comes, we will stop him with our generals and if a flood comes, we will block it with earth. If they want to play tricks on us, we will respond with tricks; if they want to fight head-on, we will fight them head-on.

If there were only these few people from our Huguang branch, I really wouldn't have the confidence to compete with them head-on. After all, we have too few first-rate masters in our Huguang branch.

But now with Dean Chi and the three guardians coming to our aid, we now have four top-notch experts on our side. Our strength is already very strong, so I naturally have nothing to fear."

Chi Hongwen was also quite confident in his own strength, and continued: "Originally, I was worried that Zuo Lengchan would lead the team here in person, but according to the news I just received, the people leading the team south from Songshan Sect this time are Ding Mian, Lu Bai, and Gao Kexin, among the Thirteen Guardians.

The Taishan Sect was led south by its leader Tianmen and Yuyinzi, the Hengshan Sect was led by the nun Dingyi, and the Huashan Sect was led by its leader Yue Buqun.

The Hengshan Sect is a local landowner. If necessary, they would probably come out in full force at any time.

If we compare the overall strength, those of us present here are indeed inferior.

So, my idea is that it is best not to have a big fight, and it would be best if we can limit this confrontation to a small area. "

Unless Yue Wenxuan is willing to show his true fighting power, otherwise, in terms of overall strength comparison, the Demon Cult is indeed far behind.

After listening to Chi Hongwen's idea, Yue Wenxuan thought it made sense, so he said, "It would be best if we could limit this duel to a small area.

And I guess this is not just our wishful thinking. Maybe the Five Mountains Sword Sect also has such plans.

The Huguang branch is just a branch after all. If the Five Mountains Sword Sect is in a stalemate with a small branch for a long time, the reputation they have built up over countless years will probably be lost in one day.

As long as we can give them a chance to confront their enemies head-on and a reason to end the dispute, I think they will be happy to accept it."
