At this time, Li Jian, Qi Lingshan, Huang Lai and other old members of the Zhenbao Pavilion were hugging each other, and Yuan Zheng, Zhan Long and other alliance traitors were hugging each other again. They were not objects that Li Wan could easily break up, but the other eight Zhenbao Pavilion members were

The old ones can still be fought for.

Li Wan has found out clearly that these people in Zhenbao Pavilion belong to the free and unfettered cultivator sect, or they are far away from the core of Zhenbao Pavilion due to various reasons and are peripheral figures.

These people have no clear affiliation with each other and can be described as friends but not parties. However, after switching to the alliance, they feel that they are helpless and will gradually join forces to seek self-protection.

Li Wan identified one of the masters of the Tao of Artifacts called Zhishan Taoist. This person had three levels of cultivation and his attainments were no less than those of Canghuo Taoist. He was a leader whose prestige and fame were enough to make other monks change their minds. If these

People also huddle together, and nine times out of ten, he will be the leader.

On this day, Li Wan called everyone in Yingxian Hall to discuss matters and said, "Fellow Daoist Ji, please stay."

Taoist Zhishan's real surname is Ji, and his last name is Ning. However, when he heard Li Wan's lingering words, he immediately felt uneasy because the whole hall was full of people, including Li Jian, Qi Lingshan and others, as well as Yuan Zheng and Zhan Long.

, or Lin Ruiliuding, all looked over.

Li Wan smiled and said nothing, but his expression and tone left no room for doubt.

Taoist Zhishan sighed secretly and had no choice but to stay.

After everyone left, only the ordinary guards were left in the hall. Taoist Zhishan asked, "I wonder what you, Taoist friend Li, do for you?"

Li Wan said: "Ji Daoyou has recently joined the alliance. I wonder if he can still get used to it?"

Taoist Zhishan smiled bitterly and said: "We cultivators are content with whatever comes, so how can we not get used to it? Moreover, all the treatment in the alliance is similar to what we used to do in the pavilion. To be honest, there is really not much difference."

Li Wan said: "This makes me feel relieved."

Li Wan and Taoist Zhishan chatted for a while.

The two of them had a very tacit understanding and did not talk too much about the alliance's attack on the Treasure Pavilion. Everything started when Taoist Zhishan and others joined the alliance.

Finally, Li Wan asked Taoist Zhishan about his future plans.

Li Wandao: "Fellow Daoist Ji has profound attainments and noble character. He also served as an elder in the Zhenbao Pavilion. Although the world is unpredictable, he was deposed and became a worshiper when he came to this alliance. However, this matter is definitely abnormal and it is a haze for a while. It is hard to believe.

Cover the splendor of Daoist fellow Taoist Ji."

When Master Zhishan heard this, his heart moved.

Of course, what Li Wan said was not without purpose.

"Fellow Daoist Li, what do you mean?"

Li Wan smiled and said: "I have already requested the Council of Elders in the name of the Great Elder of Yingxian Palace, the leader of the Alliance's Artifact Path, to choose an opportunity to promote fellow Taoists as alternate elders of this alliance. Once the time limit has passed, I will be able to help him as soon as possible.

Your position. This time, fellow Daoist Lao stayed here just because I wanted to inform you about this matter."

The candidate elder is the only way for the elder in the alliance to ascend to the throne. It can take as short as a few days, or as long as hundreds to thousands of years. After all, it is a nomination.

Taoist Zhishan immediately heard what he meant, and his eyes suddenly became profound.

"From this point of view, Ji really owes a lot to you, Daoist Friend Li."

Li Wan smiled and said: "In other words, Taoist friend Ji is a famous person from the heaven. Li is just following the trend."

When Li Wan was notified of this matter, he had nothing to say and left immediately.

Taoist Zhishan returned to his spiritual peak with a somewhat thoughtful expression, but he heard reports from his disciples that Lu Shu, who had been a close personal friend in the pavilion, came to visit.

Like him, this person belonged to the Xiaoyao cultivator sect in Zhenbao Pavilion, but he came here with intention.

Lu Shu curiously asked: "What is the reason why Fellow Daoist Li is looking for you?"

Taoist Zhishan had no intention of hiding it, so he told him what Li Wan in the palace had mentioned.

Lu Shu pondered for a long time and said, "Fellow Daoist Ji, this matter cannot be ignored."

Taoist Zhishan said: "Of course Ji knows that although this fellow Daoist Li is a junior who just came from the lower world, as soon as he appeared, he defeated Taoist Canghuo, destroyed the Treasure Pavilion, and refined weapons in public, showing his power, showing his tyrannical strength.

and a bright future with unstoppable momentum.”

"In the world of cultivation, the person who can't afford to offend the most is such a person. No matter what we think in our hearts, at least on the surface, we must respect him respectfully. Therefore, I did not refuse him outright."

"However, it's hard to explain Li Jian's side!"

Taoist Zhishan still has some difficulties in his heart.

Lu Shu laughed and said: "What you said, fellow Daoist Ji, is wrong. In the past, you had no friendship with them in the Zhenbao Pavilion. Instead, you were often ostracized by them. Now that you have changed the court, the sky is high and birds can fly, and the sea is wide and fish can jump. Why bother?"

Looking ahead and looking behind?"

The fact is indeed as Lu Shu said. In the past, in the Zhenbao Pavilion, everyone served as ministers in the same cabinet and served one party, but there was no personal friendship with each other. All they had were just casual acquaintances.

On the contrary, there were many disputes over matters such as refining magic weapons, distributing precious materials, recruiting talented disciples, etc.

Li Jian and the others came from the Lingbao Sect in the lower realm, or the Zhenbao Pavilion itself, and were close followers of Taoist Canghuo, while Taoist Zhishan was from the Huanzhen sect of the Zhongzhou sect. Although they were not hostile, they should not be taken seriously.

It's a fact.

This Taoist fellow Lu Shulu and several other Taoist fellows either came from other sects or were practicing in Cao Mang. Although they were determined to improve themselves in cultivation, they were unable to achieve the desired results due to their limited talents and circumstances.

This side is suppressed and the resources available are very limited.

The more mediocre a person is, the less likely he is to be reused, but the less likely he is to be reused, the more he will become mediocre.

Coupled with his original background and camp affiliation, it is difficult not to become a marginalized figure.

Taoist Zhishan was usually used to giving in. He knew that it was difficult to compete with Li Jian whether it was fighting for treasures or adjusting commissions. Although he was given the title of elder because of his profound attainments, it was more like a false title to appease him.

When it comes to the right to speak, it's not as effective as Li Jian's offering.

It's true that he has an indifferent temperament and doesn't care about these things, but he needs qualifications to make progress in cultivation. If things go on like this, there will always be some grudges.

Taoist Zhishan's eyes flashed with a brilliant light, and his face showed determination.

"Fellow Daoist Lu's words are really inspiring. Ji has been taught a lesson!"

What Lu Shu said makes sense. In the past, there was no way, and it was not easy to fall out with them just because of some grudge. But now that they have changed their families, what old feelings can still be cherished?

Lu Shu quickly said: "I don't dare to take it seriously. I just speak freely."

Lu Shu added: "I also hope that after making good friends with Daoyou Ji and Li Daoyou, they can introduce more people so that we can integrate into the alliance and enjoy our luck and wealth! This time we are not trying to flatter the powerful, nor seeking compromise, but just fighting for each other.

To get a place, this is not only what Lu says from the bottom of his heart, but also what Taoist friends Lin, Wu and Taoist friends mean."

Taoist Zhishan said clearly: "As monks, we will succeed if we fight, and we will fail if we don't fight. Ji is valued by all fellow Taoists, so he should do his best."

With the tacit approval of Taoist Zhishan, the matter of nominating an alternate elder for him was quickly put on the agenda.

He was just a candidate, not a formal elder. Li Wan himself could make the decision without any resistance.

But this incident still caused some waves in the alliance.

Especially when Li Jian and others learned about it, they felt that something was wrong.

"When did Taoist Zhishan join forces with Li Wan? No, this is Li Wan trying to win over him, and we are the ones he is dealing with!"

"Fellow Daoist Li, once this is implemented, the next step is for Zhishan Taoist and others to integrate into the alliance and be used by Li Wan. Our situation will definitely become more difficult."

Li Jian looked at the people gathered at the meeting and asked, "Do you have any good ideas?"

Qi Lingshan said: "We are alone and weak here. The only way out is to ask Elder Fang for help. Unfortunately, Elder Fang is not from Yingxian Palace and has little influence on the affairs here. He just barely protects us."

Fang Ming is a member of the alliance designated by Taoist Canghuo to help them, but the extent of his help must be limited.

Li Jian lamented and said: "This is the only thing that has happened so far."

Li Jian immediately decided to visit Fang Ming in person to explain the matter.

Li Wan acted quickly and nominated the candidates immediately, and immediately assigned several commissions to Taoist Zhishan in the name of the leader of Qi Dao. These commissions were all backlogged by Zhenbao Pavilion in the past.

It is worth mentioning that although the Zhenbao Pavilion was destroyed by the Cultivation Alliance and became history, the weapon refining commissions it accepted in the past and the pledge deposits sent by patrons from all parties are still preserved.

This is the strategy set by the Cultivation Alliance in order to accept customers from all over the world and make them support themselves.

It is precisely because of this that the old members of Zhenbao Pavilion, such as Li Jian and Ji Ning, are useful.

Accepting a commission means being able to perform tasks and make meritorious deeds. Taoist Zhishan and others are newly recruited, so they need these to prove their worth.

This was Li Wan's attempt to promote them, so he could help them and pave the way.

Li Jian and others had no choice but to activate their relationships, contact the customers who had trusted them, and began to accept commissions and perform tasks successfully.

They resorted to this move, but Li Wan couldn't break the rules and forcefully seize their entrustment. However, to refine weapons and make treasures, he always needed to refer to the secret book and map, learn from everyone's strengths, and he also needed to open warehouses to hunt for treasures and prepare supplies.

Li Wan used the power of the alliance to support Taoist Zhishan and others. No matter what they wanted, they would take whatever they wanted, and they would do anything. But when it was Li Jian and others' turn, although they would not give nothing, they would take away some rare and scarce things.

The inventory was tight, and after many urgings, it was simply used up. I could only find it from my own private collection, or exchange it with other Taoist acquaintances. It was time-consuming and labor-intensive, and it might not be possible to get it.

Therefore, the superiority and inferiority of the two sides were immediately revealed.

Yuan Zheng and others watched helplessly as the two parties began to fight openly and secretly. For a moment, they were unable to move, because they still carried the name of traitor, and everyone inside and outside the alliance were wary of it, so they had to gradually become depressed.

At this time, the Cultivation Alliance did not relax at all in the excavation of the Mo Lin Immortal Mansion. An exciting piece of good news came. It turned out that three immortal root veins were pulled out from the veins inside! (To be continued.
