Absolute control over the start, I will develop my own immortality

"Could it be that among the other saints, there is someone he likes?"

This is all Saint Hua Ling could think of.

Zhou Ming was speechless: "Among the Saint Sons in the Nascent Soul Realm, there are still such love-minded people? As far as I remember, no Saint Sons or Saint Daughters of this generation have become Taoist couples, right?"

Monks, especially those at a high level, generally do not release their eagles until they see the rabbit.

It is extremely rare among monks to give up everything in pursuit of the woman they love, as ordinary people do.

Although it cannot be said that there are none, they are pitifully few.

If it is said that the Holy Son Yuanguang and a certain Saint Maiden have formed a Taoist couple and the two sides have become a community of interests, then it is naturally reasonable for him to take action against the Saint Maiden Hualing for the sake of this Taoist couple.

But there is no such thing. If you just pursue her, you will offend another saint for the sake of the other party, especially the Saint Hua Ling whose power has been growing in recent decades.

That is really a move that lowers one's intelligence.

Of course, there may be other interests behind this.

or……

"Just because there was no conflict of interest in the past doesn't mean there won't be in the future. Perhaps he sees you as a threat and is attacking you in order to eliminate this threat in advance..."

The Holy Lady Hua Ling couldn't help but frown, and suddenly a look of enlightenment appeared in her eyes.

"Could it be that he wants to become an external liaison envoy?"

"Oh? It seems you have already made some guesses?"

"Yes." Saint Hua Ling nodded, and then began to talk about the internal system of Yuanling Sect.

The Twelve Saint Ladies and the Twelve Saint Sons are all talents carefully cultivated by the Yuanling Sect. When they are over a thousand years old, they will be excluded from the positions of Saint Sons and Saint Ladies and join various departments within the sect to take on important responsibilities.

However, this system is only theoretical.

Some saint sons and saint daughters are devoted to spiritual practice and know nothing about worldly affairs. If they are asked to take on important responsibilities directly, it will not only harm them but also bring disaster to the sect.

Having said that, the Holy Son and Holy Daughter have a special status. If they are determined to make an impact for a certain position and have the corresponding ability and experience, then generally speaking, there is an 80 to 90 percent chance that the position will fall into their hands.

This system is actually a sequel to the system of Holy Sons and Holy Daughters.

On the one hand, it is to avoid wasting the sect’s great efforts in training.

On the other hand, it is also to set an example for future generations.

Suppose a Son of God, after being over a thousand years old, suddenly loses his status as a Son of God, and his treatment and status drop drastically.

Then the current Son of God will realize that his future is hopeless and will certainly try every possible means to collect resources to support his practice after he loses his status as the Son of God.

At the same time, others who have not become Holy Sons or Holy Daughters will also have their own thoughts.

However, when these holy sons and daughters lost this status, they became powerful figures in the sect.

That's a different situation.

Those who have not become the Holy Son or Holy Daughter will certainly work hard and strive for these twenty-four positions, because the position of the Holy Son or Holy Daughter means the road to heaven.

Those who have become the Son of God or the Holy Daughter will work harder. On the one hand, they want to keep their positions from being replaced by others. On the other hand, they also want to be able to ascend to a high position and hold great power after losing their status as the Son of God or the Holy Daughter.

The Yuanling Sect is a huge force, no smaller than a country, and the power within it is quite similar. Among them is a department that specializes in negotiating with other forces, which is what the Flower Spirit Saint calls the "external liaison envoy."

To make an analogy, it is probably the Ministry of Rites in an ancient country.

From the bottom to the top, external liaison envoys can be divided into four levels: subordinate envoys, regular envoys, senior envoys, and respected envoys.

As an envoy to communicate with external forces, they usually do not directly send people with the same cultivation level as the highest combat power of this external force, but instead send people who are slightly lower in level to show respect for the other party.

Of course this is normal.

If the relationship between the two sides is bad, they will probably send cultivators of the same or even higher level. Once the two sides cannot reach an agreement, they will probably just start fighting.

Under this unspoken rule, the Yuanling Sect's servants are usually Foundation Establishment cultivators, who are mainly responsible for negotiating with the Jindan forces.

The chief envoy is a Jindan cultivator, who is mainly responsible for negotiating with Yuanying forces.

The Supreme Envoy, with the cultivation level of Nascent Soul, negotiates with the forces of Divine Transformation.

The respected envoy, with the cultivation level of a spirit, negotiates with the forces returning to the void.

This department can be said to be a lucrative job. They are responsible for all communications with external forces, including not only normal exchanges, but also war, trade, cooperation and other matters.

For example, the Shanggong Festival is a communication between external liaison envoys and other forces.

"The Holy Son of Yuanguang is kind to people, has a wide range of social contacts, and is very good at dealing with people. He often holds banquets and invites many friends. It can be said that he has friends all over Tianheng City. If he leaves the position of Holy Son in the future, his goal will definitely be to become an external liaison envoy!"

Saint Hua Ling said: "Even with the status of the Holy Son, he can directly jump to the highest level and become the highest level of Honored Envoy!"

There are a total of ten people in the highest-level envoy position, six of whom are specifically responsible for negotiations with the other three overlords of Tianheng City.

The other four were responsible for negotiating with other Fanxu forces outside Tianheng City.

In comparison, the power of the last four is obviously less than that of the first six.

As monks have long lifespans, all ten of them are now in office with no vacancies.

With his own strength and influence, the Holy Son of Yuanguang might be able to make one of them resign and then take over.

However, the sect will never allow two vacancies to appear among these ten envoys at the same time.

"I see. He sees you as a future competitor."

Zhou Ming finally understood.

In recent decades, Saint Hua Ling has established a Demon-Extermination Society, and most of its members are important figures from other forces in Tianheng City.

It may not mean anything now, but in the future, she will definitely become a person with extensive network of contacts and friends all over Tianheng City.

By then, she will be qualified to compete for the position of Honorable Envoy.

"This guy really calculated far ahead!"

Saint Hua Ling gritted her teeth. She had never expected this.

But there should be a little envy and jealousy in my heart.

You know, her situation was very bad in the past, and she has only built up a little bit of foundation in recent decades. Even so, she still has to maintain it carefully to avoid failure.

Under such circumstances, the most important thing for Saint Hua Ling is always the present. How can she consider the future like Saint Yuan Guang?

There is only one basis for such far-sighted thinking and thinking about what will happen a hundred years later, and that is that the current situation is very good and there is no need to worry about the present or even the situation decades later. Only then can we think carefully about the world a hundred years later.

The Flower Spirit Saint had never been in a situation like this.

But even in this state, she still inexplicably appeared in the sight of the Holy Son Yuanguang.

Then, she was regarded as a future competitor, and they directly attacked her, trying to get rid of her in advance.

Under such a comparison, how could she not envy and jealous of the Holy Son Yuanguang?
