Originally, Yang Lu only thought that Lin Jianxing was not popular among monks of the worldly sect, but he did not expect that Wen Hanqing, an ancestor of the Yuan Ying sect who was a neutral sect, actually despised his own leader in his heart.
It's no wonder that Lin Jianxing didn't dare to merge with the Huoyunzhou forces in Haiya City, because he didn't have the ability to integrate the Wuliang Sword Sect at all (in fact, Tian Daxiao didn't fully integrate the Shenhuo Sect). If he forced things to happen, he might end up overturning first.
Already.
Thinking of this, Yang Lu continued to ask: "What does Elder Ren Tianyuan think of Master Lin? This is a serious ancestor of the Secular Sect, right?"
"This guy Ren Tianyuan..."
Speaking of Elder Ren Tianyuan, Yuntianhua's tone was a little uncertain: "I feel that this person may be similar to Cheng Shuying. They are both the kind of people who have no ambitions and no political ambitions. It's just that the former is a monk of the worldly sect, and the latter is a monk.
The person is a monk of the worldly sect, so Ren Tianyuan has fewer choices than Cheng Shuying. In order to fight for the interests of himself and his family, he often has to side with Lin Jianxing, who is also a worldly sect."
For five hundred years, in the world of Kyushu cultivation, monks from the worldly sect have generally been responsible for the management of the sect, while monks from the worldly sect have focused on reciting sutras. In most cases, both sides are in harmony with each other.
However, the relationship between the worldly monks and the worldly monks has greatly eased. With the departure of the Ascension Immortal, changes have occurred. Especially after Lin Jianxing came to power, in order to guard against the worldly monks headed by Mo Yunlan, he began to establish a position in the sect.
Within the organization, those monks who have been chanting sutras all their lives are constantly promoted to key positions.
This behavior quickly intensified the conflict between the worldly sect and the worldly sect within the Wuliang Sword Sect.
Originally, you, the worldly sect, chanted sutras, and then we, the worldly sect, accumulated merits, and everyone had a bright future. But now, no matter how well we, the monks of the worldly sect, did a good job in managing the sect, we were unable to hold important positions in the end, and were even forced to accept those
Is there any way for a leader of a sectarian monk who knows nothing about management to be a god?
Therefore, Li Feiyu's flagrant defection was not an isolated phenomenon.
This is a manifestation of the intensification of factional conflicts within the sect!
Of course, the monks of the Transcendental Sect would never admit that they could not manage the sect well, let alone oppose Leader Lin.
Originally, monks like me from the worldly sect could only retreat and chant sutras. It was precisely because Master Lin came to power that everyone could be parachuted into various halls to take up leadership positions, reaping the merits of sect management for nothing. Such a good thing is that it is pie in the sky.
Aren’t they all led by Mr. Lin?
Although in the eyes of Haiya City's capitalists, major vassal sects, and the majority of cultivation chambers of commerce, Lin Jianxing is a guy with great ambitions and talent, but in the eyes of the sutra chanting monks of the Sutra Sect, Lin Jianxing's reputation can simply be described as skyrocketing.
As Lin Jianxing continued to deliberately improve the status of the worldly monks, the conflict between the worldly monks and the worldly monks became more and more acute. It was an impossible task for the worldly monks to gain good looks from the worldly monks.
Although Ren Tianyuan is also the kind of ascetic monk who has been in seclusion all year round and knows nothing about sect management, unlike Qiu Longbo and Lin Jianxing who like to do micro-management personally, he is very self-aware and knows that he cannot manage the sect, so even if Lin Jianxing once invited
He held an important position, but Ren Tianyuan still refused.
It's not that he doesn't want these merits and powers, it's just that he really has little confidence in the Wuliang Sword Sect ruled by Lin Jianxing, and he also sees the contradiction between the worldly sect and the worldly sect within the Wuliang Sword Sect, so he is really worried that if Wuliang Sword Sect
The Sword Sect has failed in the hands of Lin Jianxing. As an accomplice, he will not only gain no merit, but may also suffer backlash from heaven.
And Ren Tianyuan's situation is indeed very similar to Cheng Shuying's.
The two of them are relatively old, but their cultivation is still at the first level of Yuanying. They are thankful to God if they can cultivate to the middle stage of Yuanying in this life. The road of cultivation can already see the end at a glance. Even if they start to accumulate merit from now on
It is of no use, but if it is counterattacked by the law of heaven, it will cause endless harm.
Therefore, he declined Lin Jianxing's invitation many times, still retaining the ascetic style of the ancient Transcendental monks.
However, Ren Tianyuan's choice to avoid taking on specific duties does not mean that he is unwilling to seek benefits for his family. However, due to his status as a monk of the Sesquicental Sect, even if he sides with Mo Yunlan and Cheng Shuying, he will be criticized by others.
The worldly monks are despised and will not be regarded as one of our own by these worldly monks who have a higher view than the world.
Wen Hanqing is able to have both sides, mainly because she controls Pan's Trading Company and the Wuliangjian Sect Stock Exchange. Nowadays, there are a large number of worldly monks serving Pan's Trading Company and the Wuliangjian Sect Stock Exchange. Therefore, there are many people who say that Wen Hanqing is
It is not an exaggeration to say that the worldly monks have enough food and clothing.
However, Ren Tianyuan has been studying sutras all his life and has no connection at all with the worldly sect.
According to Yuntianhua, Ren Tianyuan knew that even if he showed friendship to Mo Yunlan, his situation would not be better than it is now after the worldly monks led by Mo Yunlan returned to power. It would be better to be with the same worldly monk.
Qiu Longbo and Lin Jianxing from the faction stood together.
As long as he doesn't take the initiative to stir up trouble, the monks from the worldly sect will not take the initiative to offend him, the ancestor of the Nascent Soul stage, and Lin Jianxing and Qiu Longbo also need his support on key issues.
Over time, Elder Ren Tianyuan's current attitude of being a worldly sect but always shirking his responsibilities has been formed. However, if there are monks from the worldly sect who are willing to extend an olive branch, Elder Ren Tianyuan will not refuse them.
That's why when the Haiya Chamber of Commerce took the initiative to join Ren Yi, Elder Ren Tianyuan did not refuse.
At best, Elder Ren Tianyuan's style of doing things is still very pragmatic, but at worst, he is a typical refined egoist.
After wanting to understand Elder Ren Tianyuan's attitude, Yang Lu further confirmed: "So you think that Ren Tianyuan actually doesn't care who becomes the leader of the Wuliang Sword Sect, and he just chooses to support Lin Jianxing, and he just follows the trend?"
Yuntianhua smiled bitterly and said: "I feel that is right. Assuming that you really bring down Lin Jianxing, Ren Tianyuan will definitely not say anything, but it is absolutely impossible for you to ask him to help you. Even if Lin Jianxing takes the initiative to ask him to take action
He would still choose to side with Lin Jianxing. After all, the label of the Secular Sect on him was too heavy. If Elder Ren Tianyuan betrayed Lin Jianxing, the result would definitely not be like Wen Hanqing's manipulation of both sides, and he would only become a different person inside and outside.
"
"It sounds like Elder Ren has very similar ideas to you!"
Hearing the ridicule in Yang Lu's tone, Yuntianhua said with a smile: "You are still young and always feel that there is hope for the future. You cannot understand the thinking of old people like us who are dying. In fact, apart from our different identities and positions, Ren Tianyuan and I have no differences.
What's the difference? Even if I'm willing to join Head Lin, do you think Head Lin will believe me?"
Yang Lu immediately hit the snake on the stick and said, "So if we need your help, will you stand by us?"
Yuntianhua said noncommittally: "Don't force me to ask, who can say what will happen in the future? I also have my own family, and I need to consider the younger generations of my family. I can't just do whatever I want!
