Chapter 573 Golden Blood Dragon Scale

Xuanming City, Lingxiao Palace.

Lu Xuanji, dressed in an apricot yellow Taoist robe, sat quietly on a chair, silently watching Zhenye approve official documents.

To be precise, it was Zhenye who was reading the document, and a purple brush was writing comments on the document by itself.

As the master of Lingxiao Palace, Zhenye is in charge of all kinds of personnel affairs of Xuanming Sect, and has a lot of complicated official business to deal with every day. Although this magic array master has a humorous temperament, he is rigorous in his work.

He would personally review all important documents and files.

Lu Xuanji and Zhenye are close friends, but it is not convenient for him to disturb the other person at work, so he can only sit aside and wait.

Zhenye is not tall, with thin eyebrows, small eyes, and two mustaches. He is thin and has a hunched back. The loose purple Taoist robe does not make him look gorgeous but rather cowardly.

Lu Xuanji had always thought that Zhenye had poor taste in clothing, and he didn't know why he liked this look. Although the two had a good relationship, they couldn't say much about it.

"Okay."

After all, Zhenye was a Taoist master, and he could tell if there were any problems with any documents just by looking at them. He handled a lot of work in a very short time.

Zhenye pointed casually, and the purple deer-hair brush that was automatically writing on the document flashed with light, flew automatically to the pen washer to wash the ink, and then flew back to the pen holder to hang it up.

Lu Xuanji smiled and praised: "Brother Zhenye, this pen has given rise to spirituality, it is really brilliant."

"It's just that it's been idle for a few hundred years and has developed some spirituality. It's easier to use..." Zhenye said this with a smug smile on his old face.

As a master of magic array, he is also good at refining equipment. He nurtures the spirituality of these small items when he is free. They are of no great use, just a little entertainment during the long years.

Zhenye smiled and asked, "Junior apprentice sister Lu, if you have something to say, just tell me. There's no need for us to beat around the bush."

He knew this junior sister's personality very well. Although Lu Xuanji had a good relationship with him, she would never visit him unless necessary. It was even more impossible for her to come all the way to Xuanming City to see him.

"Brother, I would like to meet the Taoist Master. I wonder when he is free?" Lu Xuanji did not hesitate to ask the question that concerned her most.

"The Dao Zun will be in seclusion for at least 10 to 20 years."

Zhenye shook his head. Who can say for sure about such things? He thought for a while and said, "The Dao exam will be held in another ten years. The Dao Master will definitely come out to take a look."

He turned and asked, "Junior sister, do you want to complain to Daozun?"

Lu Xuanji nodded vigorously: "Yuan Wuxian is from the Demon Sect, so it's normal for her to do anything. But Yuan Tianyi is from my sect, and he colluded with the demon cultivators to plot against me, so he should be executed!

"But Senior Brother Zhenyi said that this is a serious matter and we cannot act rashly. We still have to wait for the Dao Zun's order..."

Speaking of this matter, Lu Xuanji was furious. Yuan Tianyi had colluded with the demon cultivators, and the sect was still holding a meeting to discuss how to deal with it. It was really ridiculous.

Zhenye could understand Lu Xuanji's anger very well. No matter who was plotted against in this way, it would be an irreconcilable feud.

He thought for a moment and said, "The Tiangui Sect has been established for nearly ten thousand years, and its inheritance has never been broken. Killing Yuan Tianyi will inevitably cause chaos. At that time, we will have to use ten or a hundred times the strength to maintain the order of the Tiangui Sect."

The reason is very simple. The Tiangui Sect has been rooted for thousands of years and has established a huge organizational system. It is relatively easy to kill Yuan Tianyi, but it is difficult to take over the entire Tiangui Sect.

This was not just a matter for the Tiangui Sect. The other counties' Divine Transformation experts were also watching. The Divine Transformation experts of each sect had an orderly inheritance, and most of them were not from the Xuanming Sect.

The world is changing, and everyone is looking for a way out. No one can be determined to follow the Xuanming Sect. Lu Xuanji thinks Yuan Tianyi should be killed, but other powerful gods may not think so.

"Yuan Tianyi has already colluded with the Demon Sect. Not killing him will be a big trouble." Lu Xuanji emphasized.

"Even if Yuan Tianyi is colluding with the Demon Sect, it is still his own sect's business. It cannot be considered as treason."

Zhenye pointed out Lu Xuanji's mistake very tactfully. Yuan Tianyi was not a member of Xuanming Sect. He only belonged to Xuanming Sect in name and had no real subordinate relationship.

In fact, most of the Nine Continents are like this, and they all manage various places in the form of sects. With the ability of Xuanyang Daozun, he certainly subdues the major sects. However, Mingzhou is so vast and huge, how can Daozun have the energy to deal with various affairs every day.

Sending others to manage the counties will eventually turn them into closed autonomous regions. The so-called rotation is just changing people to take charge.

The key is to unify Mingzhou, which is of no significance to Dao Zun. Who dares not give him what he wants? Who dares not do what he wants? As for Lu Xuanji being plotted against, it is of course unforgivable in Lu Xuanji's opinion, and Dao Zun would not care about such a small matter. Killing Yuan Tianyi will only make Tiangui Sect more chaotic, and I don't know how many cultivators will die in vain.

As long as Yuan Tianyi doesn't go crazy and bring people to attack Xuanming Sect, he will basically be fine.

Zhenye felt that, for Dao Zun, what really deserved attention was the unusual movements of the Nine-headed Demonic Dragon and the cracks in the Nine Continents’ Law Realm…

Lu Xuanji also knew these principles, but she couldn't swallow this humiliation and there was nothing she could do.

But she also understood that Zhenye was trying to persuade her not to file a complaint, which was meaningless.

Lu Xuanji was silent for a moment and then said, "Brother, let's put it this way. Give me five places in this exam. Compensate me as well."

“You…”

Zhenye felt that he had been fooled. Lu Xuanji had been talking for a long time just to increase the number of places for the Dao exam. He smiled bitterly and said, "There are two places for each of the thirty-six sects, and there are thirty-six places in the church. These are all fixed. Where can I get a place for you..."

"At least give me the quota for Tiangui Sect!" Lu Xuanji said righteously.

"Okay. I don't think Yuan Tianyi has the guts to argue with me."

Zhenye thought this method was okay. It was nothing special that Yuan Tianyi colluded with the Demon Sect, but it was too classless to join forces with Yuan Wuxian to plot against Lu Xuanji.

Deducting the Taoist exam quota of Tiangui Sect and giving it to Lu Xuanji would be reasonable both to the superiors and the subordinates.

Lu Xuanji achieved her goal and turned from anger to joy. She bowed and said, "Thank you, Senior Brother."

Please...collect 6...9...books...!

"We don't need to be polite with each other."

Zhenye shook his head and said, "In fact, only the top three in the Dao exam will get any benefits. The others can only go to the Golden Palace, which is not very meaningful..."

Although Golden Palace has many treasures and artifacts, most of them are of the fourth level. Only Baiyujing has many high-level artifacts and secrets. The gap between the two is very large.

If a cultivator obtains a divine item that suits him in Baiyujing, he may be able to ascend to heaven in one step. Although the treasures in the Golden Palace are good, it is difficult for them to change their fate.

“One more spot is always good.”

Lu Xuanji had no confidence in this Taoist exam, but by taking up an extra spot, she had two more chances, while others had two less chances.

As one gains while the other loses, the benefits gained are very considerable.

"Brother, are we going to discuss Taoism in Yuanjing Sea this time?" Lu Xuanji asked in a low voice.

"It's not decided yet. It's not my business."

Zhenye really doesn't know about this. If he wants to know, he would mind telling Lu Xuanji.

Lu Xuanji asked again: "Brother, has the candidate for Wanfeng Sect to take the Dao exam been determined?"

"I know this, Gao Xian and Gao Qinghe from Wanfeng Sect."

"Um?"

Lu Xuanji was a little surprised. Yue Wanfeng not only sent Gao Xian here, but also sent Gao Xian's pet to take the Dao test! How many benefits did Yue Wanfeng receive from Gao Xian?

Lu Xuanji frowned slightly. It wouldn't make much difference if there was one more Gao Qinghe. The key was Gao Xian. If this person took part in the Taoist exam, it would be difficult for others to get first place.

She chatted with Zhenye for a while before getting up to leave.

After returning to the sect, Lu Xuanji had just entered the Hall of Eternal Life when Yuan Bin rushed in, "Sect Master, Gao Xian is here. He said he had an appointment with you. He has been waiting for you outside for three days..."

Lu Xuanji thought about it and immediately understood that Gao Xian was talking about the Golden Blood Dragon Scale. She couldn't help but laugh. She had said that she would exchange the Innate Five Qi Returning Origin Order for the Golden Blood Dragon Scale, but it was just a casual remark and she didn't take it seriously.

To obtain the Golden Blood Dragon Scale, one must not only have enough skills, but also enough luck. Moreover, Yue Wanfeng also needs the Golden Blood Dragon Scale. It is unlikely that Gao Xian will come to her after getting it.

Besides, the two sides have a grudge after all. Gao Xian must be afraid that she would take the opportunity to retaliate. She didn't expect Gao Xian to actually bring the Golden Blood Dragon Scale!

Lu Xuanji said to himself: "He is so brave... I underestimated him..."
