"I thought the Headmaster would tell you in advance..."
"How can the little old man have the nerve to contact me after he took advantage of me secretly?"
Hong Xinzi explained: "The thing is like this, for the sake of fairness, the position of leader of the Cultivation Alliance has always been held by the leaders of the five major sects. The current leader is the Zhengyang Sect. In half a year, it will be my turn to be the Five Immortals.
Zong!"
"However, according to common sense, the handover process starts three months in advance, so..."
"The little old man wants to be the leader of the Cultivation Alliance?"
Tang Fan was surprised, this was a big deal.
"Yes, so..."
"So, on the surface, he asked you to help me, but actually it was not for himself! This old man is too insidious!"
Hong Xinzi smiled bitterly and said: "You can't say that, but things have come together, and the headmaster is worried that someone will cause trouble for us at this moment, so..."
"So, he wants me to clear everything up for him before taking office? He treats me as cannon fodder!"
The more Tang Fan thought about it, the more angry he became. This little old man first used himself to promote the Five Immortals Sect, and now he allowed himself to take the lead. This was too much!
Hong Xinzi shook his head and said: "Young Master, things are not what you think. If you had secured your position as Young Master before he took office, the meaning would be completely different!"
"Why?"
"If you can't use your own strength to settle the opposition within the Cultivation Alliance, after the headmaster takes over as the leader, you can be directly appointed as the young master, but that will have a very bad impact on you..."
Tang Fan nodded, he understood what Hong Xinzi meant.
Originally, he thought that the Cultivation Alliance was just a symbolic organization, but now it seems that it is not that simple.
"In addition, everyone in the Cultivation Alliance has their own agendas. They are fragmented, constrained by each other, and lack trust. They have never elected a young master. If you are not strong enough, wait until the next session..."
"In this case, I just don't mind it. Anyway, I have no interest in this young master!"
Hong Xinzi shook his head and said: "I know you are not interested in these, but your enemies will not just let it go! If a new young master appears in the future, do you think he can make you live a stable life?
"
"Perhaps, you can fly away, but is that really your pursuit? Are you willing to become a deserter in the eyes of everyone?"
"Young Ancestor, although I don't know your life experience, I know that you are not destined to be a mortal!"
"You have never given up in the past, and you will never give up in the future! Even if you want to give up, I'm afraid some people will disagree!"
Tang Fan looked at Hong Xinzi thoughtfully, and he knew that what the other person said was absolutely right.
"Young Ancestor, with your character, you either don't do something, or you do it the best you can! Since you are involved in the affairs of the Cultivation Alliance, you can only take care of it to the end!"
"This is what the little old man asked you to tell me?"
"The master just asked me to tell you that if anyone can integrate the Cultivation Alliance, that person must be you, and it can only be you!"
"oh?"
Tang Fan frowned, thought for a while, and asked: "What secret does the Cultivation Alliance have?"
"Before I came, the headmaster told me that the Cultivation Alliance was established to accomplish some task. Over the years, I have been waiting for the appearance of a certain strong man. As for the purpose, he did not elaborate. Maybe he is not
It’s very clear, but he revealed a piece of information to me, which should be related to the destruction of Tianyuan Sect!”
Tang Fan trembled in his heart, and couldn't help but think of Dongmen Canghai, and immediately asked: "Is it... the eternal realm?"
"Then I don't know. In short, the headmaster said that the Cultivation Alliance seems to be powerful, but it has been restricted by a strong man. That person is very powerful, and he is the one who advocated the establishment of the Cultivation Alliance!"
"Over the years, the Cultivation Alliance has been adjusting, and the position of the leader cannot continue to rotate. Sooner or later, there must be a fixed leader! Headmaster, I hope you can use your strength, for yourself, and for our Five Immortals Sect!
"
"How much do you know about me and the Tianyuan Sect?"
"I only know that the Soul-eating Cauldron is on your body. I don't know the rest."
"In other words, my relationship with the Tianyuan Sect should not be a secret in the Cultivation Alliance, right? Maybe some people have always had an eye on me, not because I have killed their people, but because of the Tianyuan Sect's lost
A... treasure?"
"It seems that the headmaster is right, he said that you will definitely be able to figure it out!"
Hong Xinzi smiled and admired Tang Fan's powerful analytical ability.
"Just tell me, what does he need from me?"
"First of all, you must obtain the position of Young Master based on your strength, and then try your best to unite the five major sects, and even the entire Cultivation Alliance, to become the only and permanent leader in the future!"
"For that mission?"
"He said, for yourself!"
"For myself? Haha..."
"Everyone says you are an old fox, but I think he is the old fox!"
Hong Xinzi smiled and said: "The headmaster said that you should not look at things superficially. In fact, it is not that he is using you, but that he is assisting you!"
"This old man!"
Although what Hong Xinzi said was somewhat fragmented and the key issues were vague, Tang Fan still captured a lot of useful information from it.
He had a hunch that the mission planned by the Cultivation Alliance must be inextricably linked to him!
He felt that he was getting closer and closer to the answer...
Hong Xinzi said: "Young Master, you are in the limelight now, and you have an official status as a talisman. I suggest you strike while the iron is hot and go to the headquarters of the Cultivation Alliance now to give them a blow! You appear publicly in the Cultivation Alliance. Strong people will not
I'll attack you! But if I do it behind my back..."
"I will go to the Cultivation Alliance, and I will also seize the position of Young Master, and settle everything for Zhang Badao, so that he can safely sit on the position of leader, but not now!"
"I think now is the right time, you..."
Tang Fan waved his hand to interrupt Hong Xinzi's words and said: "Senior, I, Tang Fan, never flinch, but I never fight an unprepared battle. Sometimes, when you are far away, you can see more things clearly. What's more,
There are more important things to do now!"
"Okay, everything is up to you!"
"What about you? What are you going to do?"
"I came to Kyoto. In addition to finding out the internal situation of the Cultivation Alliance, helping you clear obstacles and preparing for the appointment of the Headmaster, I will also protect your family and subordinates here in the capital. This is the special instruction of the Headmaster.
of!"
"He seems to know that I won't go to the Cultivation Alliance right away?"
Hong Xinzi's face stiffened and he smiled awkwardly: "Young Ancestor, the Master knows what you are thinking, and you also know what he is worried about!"
"One thing he said is right. We have the same goal. As for who will assist whom, it's hard to say!"
Tang Fan patted Hong Xinzi's shoulder heavily, then slapped the Qiankun bag, hundreds of pill bottles flew out from it, and with a sweep of his hand, they all flew towards Hong Xinzi.
"Young Ancestor, what are you..."
"Do you think Zhang Badao asked you to give me so many cultivation resources for nothing? As the Young Ancestor of the Five Immortals Sect and the Master of Danfeng Sect, I have never forgotten my responsibilities!"
"Thank you, Young Ancestor, for the elixir!"
Hong Xinzi cupped his fists and bowed.
"I'll leave Kyoto to you, it's time for me to go!"
"Young Ancestor, but those women..."
"Tell them that I have temporarily received a secret mission. At the same time, spread the news and let everyone know that I have left the capital!"
"Understood!"
Tang Fan flew away, and Hong Xinzi looked at his back silently, with a smile on his face: "The master's calculations are really accurate!"
Tang Fan traveled along the mountains and forests, meditating and practicing from time to time, without the interruption of others, he was very leisurely.
One day later, while he was flying in the air, he suddenly noticed a subtle aura on a mountain peak in front of him.
The moment he activated his purple pupil mind, a magnetic, gentle, steady, and slightly sad voice floated in front of him:
