After everyone returned to Taihua City, Yang Jiuxiao and other Dao Sect senior officials returned to Taihua Mountain, while Zhai Lu and the leaders of various factions stayed in Taihua City to deal with post-war matters.
In the blink of an eye, seven days passed.
During these seven days, many things happened in Daozong, the most important of which was Xiao Muyang's funeral, which was witnessed by everyone in Daozong.
The cabinet is in a hidden cave in Jiuxiao Peak.
Yang Jiuxiao and Gu Xing stood side by side. In front of them was a bed made of jade. There was a figure in white lying on the bed, which was naturally Xiao Muyang.
At this time, Xiao Muyang's face was bloodless, his eyes were closed tightly, there was no trace of life in his body, and he was no different from a dead person.
Looking at Xiao Muyang's body, Yang Jiuxiao and Gu Xing felt a little uneasy. Seven days had passed without any movement. It was difficult for them not to think about the worst.
"Do you need to do anything else?" Gu Xing looked at Yang Jiuxiao and asked. He was worried that Yang Jiuxiao had missed something.
Yang Jiuxiao shook his head and said: "He only said about preserving his body and nothing else."
Gu Xing trembled in his heart. Did he really fail?
Or rather, he was simply lying to them.
"Wait a little longer, bringing the dead back to life is a method that goes against the will of heaven, and it shouldn't be effective so quickly." Yang Jiuxiao said, not sure whether he was comforting Gu Xing or himself.
"Gu Xing nodded lightly and could only continue to wait.
...
The Royal Palace, inside the enshrinement hall.
The person sitting on the main seat is Qi Yue, the first person on his right is Qi Huan, and the first person on the left is Chun Yuhe. Now he has become a royal servant, but he does not interfere in the royal affairs, he just wants to Just an identity.
"Although there were a lot of casualties in this battle, we got rid of Xiao Muyang, a serious enemy. In the long run, this battle can be said to have huge gains." Qi Yue said, "Next, we have to do two things."
"The first thing is to further integrate the forces until all forces are brought under the royal family."
"It would be too hasty to consolidate the forces right after the war." Qi Huan said: "In my opinion, we still need to recuperate our strength now. When we have recovered enough strength, it will be much easier to consolidate the forces."
Qi Yue looked at Qi Huan calmly and said, "Don't you believe in my king's ability?"
"Before, those forces didn't know about your plan and were unprepared. But now they all know that you have the idea of unifying the world. Forcible integration may cause various forces to resist. If they join forces to resist, what will be the consequences?"
Qi Huan continued: "Have you ever thought about what would happen if they were led by Daozong?"
"I think the great sacrifice is reasonable, and there is no problem with the plan to unify the world, but it should not be done too hastily. Solving the Daozong first is the top priority." Fengyun Supreme also said, his words were gentler than Qi Huan, but he was also opposed to Qi Yue Decide.
Qi Yue looked a little unhappy. Was he going to join forces to oppose him?
"Hmph." Qi Huan snorted coldly and spoke forcefully: "In order to solve Daozong, we must integrate forces. I have made up my mind on this matter and there is no need to discuss it further."
As soon as the words fell, the atmosphere in the hall suddenly became tense.
Qi Huan stared at Qi Yue. Did he start to act arbitrarily before he even sat in that position?
"Don't forget who cleaned up the mess for you. Without Qi Yue, would the royal family still exist now?" Chunyu He sneered: "Now that the situation is stable, it is ridiculous to question his decision."
Qi Huan and others looked at Chun Yuhe coldly, feeling very unhappy, but they could not refute it. What Chun Yuhe said was true. Without the forces Qi Huan integrated, they would have almost no chance of winning.
"What happened before has proved that your vision is not good enough. It is better to follow my ideas next. Under my leadership, the dynasty will reach its true peak." Qi Yue said, with a strong sense of pride in his eyes. meaning.
Qi Huan did not speak again. He knew that Qi Yue was determined and would not waver no matter what he said.
"What's the second thing?" The Supreme Being on the other side asked.
"I want to build a holy place for preaching to replace the Dao Sect." Qi Huan said loudly.
The reason why Daozong has such a strong influence is that it has a long history and has cultivated countless outstanding disciples. The second reason is that Daozong treats its disciples equally, regardless of their status and background, so that the world regards Daozong as a holy place to become a Taoist. The disciples of the sect are honored.
If we want to curb the growth of Daozong, we must not only weaken its development resources, but more importantly, make Daozong fall from the altar.
If no one in the world goes to Dao Zong to practice, Dao Zong will naturally not be able to grow without fresh blood.
Therefore, a new missionary sanctuary was needed.
Qi Huan and others were so shrewd that they quickly understood Qi Yue's intention. Qi Huan was the first to speak: "I have no objection to this matter. If the dynasty wants to unify the world, it must recruit the world's talents."
In the past, the Taoist sect had a deep foundation and was difficult to shake. Now, the power of the Taoist sect has been greatly reduced. Now, establishing a preaching force will definitely attract countless geniuses, and at the same time prepare for the future unification of the world.
"I agree too." Fengyun Supreme agreed, and then the other shore supreme and others also expressed their support for Qi Yue's decision.
Qi Yue showed a satisfied look and continued: "I have a careful plan to build a new city in the central area, called Huangtian City, and build an academy in Huangtian City."
"In addition, find a prosperous city in each of the four major regions, southeast, northwest, and establish branches in the city so that people in each region can practice nearby without having to travel long distances. At the same time, it also reflects the sincerity of the royal family towards the world."
Qi Huan's eyes flashed with light, and then he took a deep look at Qi Yue. Although this person was domineering and ambitious, he had to admit that Qi Yue was very talented and courageous, and the dynasty was bound to be in his hands. Stronger than before.
"Haha, after the academy is established, Daozong's status in the hearts of the world will plummet. There is only one end." Fengyun Supreme smiled while stroking his beard, as if he had already seen the future ending.
Qi Yue looked at Qi Huan and said: "I don't feel comfortable leaving the establishment of the academy to others, so I have to do it myself."
"Okay, leave it to me." Qi Huan agreed directly.
The construction of the academy is beneficial to the dynasty, so he will naturally not refuse. Moreover, this matter is related to the future development of the dynasty, and there is no room for any negligence. Only by personally supervising it can he rest assured.
"If there is nothing else, I will leave." Qi Yue stood up after saying that, and then left the enshrinement hall with Chunyu He.
On the way, Chunyu He suddenly thought of something, looked at Qi Yue and asked: "That day you checked Xiao Muyang's body, are you sure he is really dead?"
Qi Yue stopped and looked at Chunyu He with some confusion: "Why do you ask?"
"It's nothing, just a little uneasy. That boy's talent is too evil, and he takes the initiative to die. It always feels a bit unreal." Chun Yuhe said. He knew that he was overly worried, but he still wanted to confirm again.
"I have carefully sensed that there is no trace of life in his body, and I left that thing in his body. Now his meridians must have been completely corroded." Qi Yue laughed.
Chunyu He showed a strange light, and Qi Yue actually retained this hand. He was so sinister that he deceived Yang Jiuxiao.
At this moment, he was completely relieved. Everything was going according to their original plan. It wouldn't be long before their plan would be fully realized!
