Chen Yi said calmly: "You speak with great righteousness, but your Xiaoyao Sect has occupied the most fertile land in this area for many years. Has it made any contribution to the local development? Has the living standard of the local people become better because of you? Has the local fortune ever risen?"
"Uh..." Huo Hai was speechless after asking these three questions.
I'm just telling you, why do you take it so seriously?
Contribute to local development?
If the Xiaoyao Sect can’t even develop, how can we take care of other things?
Chen Yi added: "If it weren't for the Heavenly Dao promotion, and if the comprehensive environmental support carrying capacity was forcibly increased, do you know how many spirits would starve to death in this area every year?"
"You must know that the number of spirits is the foundation of luck, and the level of luck determines the upper limit of the productivity of heaven and earth!"
"After so many years, the local fortune is still like this. It's hard to be sure of the heavens. Sometimes, why don't you look for your own reasons? Why hasn't the fortune improved over the years? Have you taken serious measures to manage it?"
"Your Excellency, your teaching is correct, but..." Huo Hai's face turned red and his neck became thick: "If we hand over our ancestral foundation, how will we, the Xiaoyao Sect, survive?"
As soon as the words fell.
Before Chen Yi opened his mouth, the Xiaoyao Sect elder who was standing like a minion in the hall sorted out his thoughts and said resolutely: "Sect Master, why don't you understand?!"
"Your Excellency's meaning is clear. We cannot just cling to our ancestors' foundation and live off our old capital. After all, the plate is so small. We can only ensure that we don't starve to death!"
"But if we hand it over, first of all, we will definitely be treated preferentially. Secondly, with the channels of the City God throughout the world, we will definitely be able to expand the plate, increase our luck, and improve our productivity. Then we will be able to get more!"
"The torrent of this era is mighty and powerful. Only by following the direction of the huge waves can we leap onto the tide. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. My Xiaoyao Sect has been in decline for too long. We can no longer follow the rules!"
"Please give the order to abolish the system. I, Luo Wutian, am willing to lead the exploration and go to Chenxing Pass to negotiate with the City God immediately!"
Hearing this, Chen Yi couldn't help but look up to this seemingly ordinary Xiaoyao Sect elder, and said with interest: "Your awareness is good, you can serve as the 1002nd generation leader of Xiaoyao Sect."
Huo Hai was suddenly struck by lightning.
Oh no, this is directed at me!
Venerable Yujie obviously has a narrow mind. How could he let me go so easily? It turns out he is waiting here!
However, not everyone can become the leader of the Xiaoyao Sect!
Even if you, the Lord Yujie, can withdraw, what can I do?
Outsiders are always outsiders and have no idea how much I, Huo Hai, have contributed to the Xiaoyao Sect!
Even if he was demoted to a menial disciple, he could still order the master around. Do you believe it? !
The fact is just as he expected.
Luo Wutan really did not dare to lay his hands on the position of sect leader. He knew his own capabilities very well. Even if he was promoted by the Venerable Yujie, it would be difficult to convince the people. It was better for him to just show his loyalty.
"Thank you for your favor, Your Excellency. However, I am not talented enough to take on this important task. I hope..."
Luo Wutan was talking when he suddenly couldn't speak anymore.
With the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of a statue that the Venerable Yujie had summoned with his palm.
*******
(Alas, I know clearly that I will be scolded if I ask for leave on this day, but there is no way, I am in a very bad mood, it is your happy voices that disturb me, I am like a dog on the roadside that is kicked mercilessly, I feel uncomfortable, I will take a day off, muah!)
