Chapter 318: Putting a Long Line to Catch Big Fish
"Mr. Zheng, Sister Yun has been waiting for you for a long time. Should she come over?" Lu Jian saw Zheng Ming coming up quickly and asked softly.
Zheng Ming still had a good impression of Yun Yuerong who could speak up for him. He nodded immediately and said, "I'll go see Miss Yun."
"Greetings to Mr. Zheng." Yun Yuerong saw Zheng Ming coming out and hurriedly stood up, but when she called Zheng Ming, she hesitated for a moment.
After all, Zheng Ming's identity is already extraordinary. Not to mention anything else, her master was preparing to worship the Grand Master and wanted to receive Zheng Ming from his subordinates, but she could hear clearly.
If it were ordinary people, Yun Yuerong might just call him Uncle Master, but Zheng Ming was different. She vaguely felt that Zheng Ming might not be bound by their Burial Sword Palace.
Zheng Ming looked at Tingting and gloomy Yun Yuerong and became more and more sure of his thoughts. The fact that he drew so many women this time should be related to the yin and yang decline of the Burial Sword Palace.
"Miss Yun doesn't need to be polite." Zheng Ming waved his hand and gently held Yun Yuerong with an internal energy, saying, "I don't know if Miss Yun is here, what advice can I give me."
"I dare not take the advice. Yuerong comes here, but there are a few things to report to you." Yun Yuerong smiled and returned to his previous calmness and calmness, and said softly: "Young Master Zheng, you are extraordinary in your talent. In the sword tomb, you have attracted the King of Wan Jian Chao. Even the beautiful magic sword surrendered to your subordinates. It is really gratifying."
"According to the rules of our Sword Burial Palace, those who get the Red-eyed Sword should be the lord of the Sword Burial Palace. After research by the Supreme Elder and the Family Master, it was decided that the Master would take the disciples on behalf of the Master. In this way, you can not only join the Sword Burial Palace, but also have an identity that can convince the public."
The junior brother of the Supreme Elder, a noble seniority, and the beauty magic sword in his hand, really makes it much easier for him to take charge of the Burial Sword Palace.
However, Zheng Ming was not very interested in governing a sect that was mainly women. His greatest interest was the eighteen palaces of the Burial Sword Palace.
These eighteen palaces have a population of over 100 million. If they can hold this palace in their own hands, it will be a fairy tale who wants to be who.
Tsk, for Zheng Ming, this is his greatest interest.
Therefore, after pondering for a moment, Zheng Ming said to Yun Yuerong: "It's not impossible to join the Burial Sword Palace. It's just that I don't want to sit in the position of the Burial Sword Palace, but I hope that Dingzhou will submit to the eighteen palaces of our Burial Sword Palace, so that I can be in charge of it."
Yun Yuerong frowned, and she didn't know how to answer for a moment.
For the Burial Sword Palace, the territory of the Eighteen Palaces is very important. But no matter how important it is, it cannot compare to the entire Burial Sword Palace.
After all, the main part of the Burial Sword Palace is the foundation of the Burial Sword Palace, and the rest are just subordinates.
Zheng Ming did not want the power of the entire Burial Sword Palace, but wanted eighteen palaces. Is he unwilling to get involved in the battles within the Burial Sword Palace, or is he because he wanted to first master this area that was an important foundation for the Burial Sword Palace. Then he slowly penetrated into the entire Burial Sword Palace?
Yun Yuerong couldn't guess Zheng Ming's plan for a moment, but these were not something she could decide, so she could only smile and said, "Mr. Zheng's request, Yuerong will definitely report to the master truthfully."
The two chatted for another half a minute. Yun Yuerong said goodbye and left. Just as she walked out of the Green Sword Xiaozhu, she saw her master Li Qiuran coming over.
"What did Zheng Ming say?" Li Qiuran pulled Yun Yuerong and asked in a deep voice.
"Zheng Ming said he could join our Sword Burial Palace, but he would assign the eighteen palaces of our Sword Burial Palace to him."
When Yun Yuerong said this, he hesitated for a moment and said in a deep voice: "When he proposed this condition, his attitude was very firm."
Li Qiuran pondered for a moment, nodded gently and said, "I really can't tell that this young man has a lot of ideas!"
"Master, what do you mean?" Yun Yuerong's heart immediately raised.
"Of course it is for him. He holds the Red Beauty Divine Sword and should have been the owner of the Burial Sword Palace. Now he doesn't want the power of the Burial Sword Palace. As long as the land of the Eighteen Palaces, how can we not give it to him?" Li Qiuran said with a decisive look.
The Burial Sword Palace has been in charge of the Eighteen Prefectures of Dingzhou for many years and has a great reputation. Even the Great Jin Dynasty has only one nominal rule over the Eighteen Prefectures of Dingzhou under the Burial Sword Palace.
As for the control of the eighteen prefectures, in addition to directly sending disciples to serve as the head of the prefecture, the Burial Sword Palace also has many large families in the prefecture who directly sent their families to the Burial Sword Palace.
At the beginning, the disciples of these families were cautious, fearing to cause trouble for their family, but as these families stayed in the Burial Sword Palace for generations, they also began to form a considerable force in the Burial Sword Palace.
Although they have not reached the point where they are in the Daojian Palace, there is one thing that is, in the Daojian Palace, they are one of the major forces that even Zhu Xinrong has to pay attention to.
Usually, the children of these eighteen prefectures also have their own supporters, but when they are involved in the aristocratic families of the eighteen prefectures, their position is the same.
Just one hour after Li Qiuran and Zhu Xinrong made the decision to hand over the Eighteen Palaces to Zheng Ming in charge, thirty or forty people had gathered in a palace in the West Garden of the Burial Sword Palace.
These people have the highest cultivation level, have reached the third level, and those with low cultivation level, and are also at the sixth level. It can be said that these people are all core-level existences in the Burial Sword Palace.
"Elder Shen, in order to please Zheng Ming, the Supreme Lord and the Sect Master handed over our Eighteen Mansions to him for management. This... this is really not taking our Eighteen Mansions seriously!" A middle-aged man with a six-foot height and a red face said to a woman in his fifties with anger.
Although the woman could still see her youthful face, she was already in her twilight years. She looked at the angry middle-aged man with a hint of coldness in her eyes.
Just as the middle-aged man was talking, seven or eight middle-aged people stood up and asked Elder Shen to come forward and ask the Lord of the Burial Sword Palace and the Supreme Elder to take back the order.
"Do you think that as long as I speak, Tai Shang and the Palace Master can withdraw the instructions?" Shen Qingyan asked indifferently.
The middle-aged man who spoke first said, "Elder Shen, you are the third-rank elder of our Burial Sword Palace. He has a respectable status. The Supreme Lord and the Palace Master may not consider our opinions, but you must respect your opinions."
"Yes, Elder Shen, you are highly respected. Who doesn't know in our Sword Burial Palace?"
"Elder Shen, at this time, the children of our 18th Mansions all depend on you. If you don't speak, people don't know how to deal with us!"
Shen Qingyan knew very well about the thoughts of these representative figures of the major families. Although the eighteen palaces of the Burial Sword Palace are all under the Burial Sword Palace and tribute to the Burial Sword Palace, because they are in power in the Burial Sword Palace, they all have great autonomy.
Now, if Zheng Ming wants to control these Eighteen Mansions, it is equivalent to giving the powerful family of the Eighteen Mansions an unreasonable father.
Such a frustrating thing really makes them very upset for the families of the Eighteen Palaces. Who would have liked to have an extra dad for no reason?
So they have to recommend themselves as guns to block this matter.
If it were normal things, Shen Qingyan would be willing to come forward and formally determine the status of their Shen family among the Eighteen Palaces.
However, Shen Qingyan was unwilling to come forward in this matter and did not dare to come forward. As a third-grade elder, she knew very well what status Zheng Ming, who was holding the Red Beauty Sword, now in the Burial Sword Palace.
What's more, when it comes to matters related to the survival of the Burial Sword Palace, Zhu Xinrong would never allow them to rebel here.
"Fish, what fish? You are questioning the sect's decision. You are not considering the future of the sect!"
With Shen Qingyan's angrily rebuked, a cold sword intent directly enveloped the entire hall. Although everyone knew that Shen Qingyan would never be able to kill them at this moment, they still felt their minds trembling.
The power of the third-grade strong men is not something they can resist. Under the aura of the third-grade strong men, they feel like a fish that is out of water, and there is no power to resist at all.
"Zheng Ming was born with a sword body, and he led the King of Ten Thousand Swords. It can be said that the future hope of our Burial Sword Palace. Not to mention the Eighteen Palaces, the future Burial Sword Palace will be controlled by him. You... you have walked too much, and you all feel that it is unhappy to let a child ride on your head. I tell you, whoever dares to have such a mind again, I let him and the family behind him disappear in the Burial Sword Palace."
These words made many people bow their heads involuntarily. The man who was yelling at the beginning seemed to have become a docile little lamb at this moment.
"Elder Shen, what should we do in your opinion?" asked a middle-aged woman with beautiful eyebrows and eyes softly.
After looking at the woman, Shen Qingyan's eyes appeared a little softer. Although this woman called her Elder Shen, her relationship with this woman is really not comparable to ordinary people.
After all, the woman's mother is her sister, and she is also her dead sister.
"Of course, we follow the decision of the sect and express our goodwill to Mr. Zheng." Shen Qingyan sighed and said lightly.
After Shen Qingyan made the decision, the crowd quickly said goodbye and left. In the whole hall, only Shen Qingyan and the beautiful woman were left.
"Auntie, do you think other families will truly surrender to Zheng Ming?" The beautiful woman gently came behind Shen Qingyan, and her hands slowly knocked behind Shen Qingyan.
After Shen Qingyan frowned slightly, he said lightly: "These families have done too many things smoothly, and each of them has less awe. They don't think about why their family has the current power? It's because the Burial Sword Palace supports them!"
"But no matter what they think in their hearts, they will remain complacent on the surface. At least, they should be flattered by what they should be." (~^~)
