Chapter 174: Chapter 132 Sect Hierarch is in a Good Mood [Extra for PK with Lord Xianyun]

Being from a prominent family, we all share that intuition when it comes to heritage.

Fang Che is now advancing courageously, exhibiting an endlessly deep disposition. Such a person, if unknown to be from a ninth level family, even as a first level family would easily be believed!

How could he possibly fall behind? That’s fooling no one!

"Another point is that being the leader of our team isn’t easy. First, you need to balance the different families, second, balance the brothers, third, have what others don’t and share it; fourth, know what others don’t and share that too; fifth, take care of every brother, sixth, possess an exceptional sense of the big picture, and a spirit of sacrifice and dedication."

"I have the last point fully covered, but the earlier hardware requirements, I lack!"

Fang Che laughed heartily.

"If I were to continue being this leader, it would mean you all would constantly be aiding me with your family resources, because once resources are shared among brothers, it’s impossible to keep them to oneself."

"It’s only natural for the leader to distribute resources evenly, but if brothers bring them out and the leader only reaches out to take, what would that become?"

"I can’t produce that much for you all."

Fang Che spread his hands: "So, this leader is doomed not to be me."

The faces of the crowd turned somber.

For currently, the only one who can firmly keep everyone in line and earn respect is Fang Che.

Replacing him with someone else.

Even if it’s Yu Zhongge, others can always spit in disdain.

Under such circumstances, how could another be the leader?

It’s completely impossible.

"There’s another point you’ve overlooked."

Fang Che said: "In the new student contest, the five of you are a team. After such a fierce battle, you naturally come together. I won’t be around during this period, you understand the impact of this."

"Therefore, I’m choosing to clarify everything now."

Fang Che spoke profoundly: "To avoid any awkwardness at the time."

"Whoever wants to be the leader, well, in this period, use your strength, resolve, and capability to convince everyone, and earn their recognition!"

"Starting tomorrow, our battles will be matches. I’ll face off against the five of you!"

Fang Che said: "You can treat me as a genius from another Martial Arts Academy. Your team of five must quickly form! Otherwise, you won’t just fail to earn honor, but will also be embarrassed!"

"Embarrassment for you, embarrassment for me, is also embarrassment for the Academy!"

Fang Che chuckled: "I’ve finished speaking and will head home now. Haven’t been home in several days, you guys can think it over."

He stood up and left.

Yu Zhongge looked complex: "Boss Fang..."

Fang Che waved back at the five of them, walking away serenely.

It was already getting dark.

The last touch of light fell on the small training ground where Mo Gan Yun and others were.

Fang Che walked against the light and soon vanished into the darkness ahead.

Dusk suddenly descended upon the earth.

Swallowing everything between heaven and earth completely.

...

In the dark, seven people sighed inwardly together.

Fang Che was excluded from the battle team, unable to participate in the grand contest.

This is something everyone knows.

But no one expected that Fang Che, just after recovering, would decisively and straightforwardly handle the team’s matters, making a handover.

Moreover, it was handled extremely well.

He pointed out everyone’s little thoughts.

Clarified future goals.

Implicitly indicated each person’s future positions.

Then made requests, pointed out shortcomings.

Even resolved Xie Gongping’s heart demon.

Tackled all potential issues in advance today.

Finally, he smoothed out everyone’s feelings and, by aligning with the academy’s honor, forced a reluctant unity among them.

It was brilliant to the extreme.

Yet because of this very brilliance, all seven found it a pity.

Such an innate leader was excluded from a major academy contest team!? What a waste of talent!

But they didn’t know that, actually, Fang Che never intended to be this leader from the start.

Because his path was different.

He couldn’t truly be this leader.

If Fang Che really became the leader, then the dangers this team would face in the future would increase exponentially.

Moreover, Fang Che’s identity would cause Mo Gan Yun and others to be mistrusted.

And the Yixin Sect over there wouldn’t show any mercy either.

Mo Gan Yun and the others would have no place next to Fang Che, nor future prospects.

Better to use this opportunity to step away and command remotely.

When there’s time, give those lads a lesson.

Acting as an ’honorary leader’ aloof from worldly matters is better.

Generally not getting involved, but whenever Fang Che speaks, no matter who the leader is, they must listen obediently.

This is the outcome Fang Che desired.

Everyone felt it was a pity for Fang Che.

Fang Che alone knew he had gained.

Because even the sentiment of ’what a pity for Fang Che’ was to his advantage.

On the road.

Fang Che eagerly sent a message to Yin Shen Palace.

"Reporting to the Sect Hierarch, subordinate Yemo reports. I have recovered, and now feel that in all aspects there are no issues, even my Divine Sense seems stronger, truly a benefit. Rest assured, Sect Hierarch, I am now a Sixth Grade Innate Grandmaster, and will soon advance to General Level! I am becoming more and more confident."

He finished editing and sent it out.

Never mentioning the grievances he endured no matter how bitter they were.

It was as if he experienced something nice, casually mentioning the benefits.

This is how to deal with leadership; they know what you’ve gone through, and at these times, it’s best not to complain. The more you complain, the more annoyed they get.

The more nonchalant you are, the more they feel you are useful.

Sure enough, Yin Shen Palace was pleased upon receiving the message.

Replied immediately: "Suffered quite a bit, haven’t you?"

Fang Che chuckled softly, immediately replied: "Not really, I didn’t feel much, just passed by."

Yin Shen Palace, delighted, cursed: "This little rascal, you were in a coma for six days and nearly became an idiot, and yet feel nothing. Well, of course, you were in a coma, so how could you feel anything."

Then lightly replied: "Understood, keep up the cultivation, take good care of Elder Mu."

After pondering, changed ’Elder Mu’ to ’your Second Master’, then sent it.

He put away the Communication Jade, walked out with hands folded behind him, light as a feather.

Yin Shen Palace tried to maintain the appearance of ’I’m as furious as before,’ but still, someone noticed the change.

Hou Fang approached: "Sect Hierarch is in a good mood today?"

Yin Shen Palace angrily said: "What is this mess, everything’s so damn wrong!"

Hou Fang winked: "Sect Hierarch is in an excellent mood."

"Scram!"

Yin Shen Palace kicked Hou Fang away.

Damn, for once I’m in a good mood, and this guy comes over to tease me into coughing.

Bei Mingxin, clutching his chest, was sunbathing outside: "Well, Sect Leader seems in a good mood today, what good thing happened?"

Yin Shen Palace: ???

What did I do?

How can everyone sense I’m in a good mood?

I was clearly showing no expression, able to maintain calm even if a mountain collapses before me!

How did I break character?

What he didn’t realize was that the pressure from the Yemo matter was like a mountain, a sea! The stakes were immense!

Constantly asking for news these days, getting bad news, a heart ever suspended.

Now abruptly released, such highs and lows, even with the deepest scheming, time is needed to settle.

Moreover, he was eager to step out and breathe the air, naturally making it more apparent.

"Lord Bei, your injury is also much better."

Yin Shen Palace smiled: "A joyous occasion."

Stooped to take a closer look, said: "This spear intent injury healed so quickly, proving Lord Bei’s skill akin to divine work, cultivation progressed further."

Bei Mingxin was also pleased, saying: "Though injured this time, it proves Dong Changfeng’s old wound hasn’t healed, his spear intent insufficient, slightly flawed, its power even less than before; moreover, I gained some understanding studying spear intent, next time I meet Dong Changfeng, I will surely slay him!"

Yin Shen Palace laughed heartily: "Pity that Lord Bei must hide his identity, else you’d have already claimed a spot on the Cloud Weapon List, a slight pity."

Bei Mingxin snorted softly, paused, said: "Since the injury isn’t that severe, I should depart in a few days."

"That ancient jade..." Yin Shen Palace inquired.

"No need to search."

Bei Mingxin’s eyes turned sinister: "The Main Sect reported that the ancient jade is soul-bound, vanished from this world, impossible to locate."

Yin Shen Palace stamped his foot and sighed deeply: "Such a divine object, fallen to undeserving hands! Truly lamentable, lamentable!"

He looked up at Ren Zhongyuan beside Bei Mingxin saying: "Zhongyuan, take care of Lord Bei, no need to worry about sect affairs for now, focus everything on Lord Bei. Moreover... lately I’ve procured some Cloud Mist Root, you like this stuff, I had it sent to you, you’ll find it upon returning."

Ren Zhongyuan gratefully said: "Thank you, Sect Hierarch."

Yin Shen Palace laughed: "We’ve been brothers for years, it’s only right."

Then said: "Lord Bei’s presence in our sect is an honor for the Yixin Sect, Yin Shen Palace prepared some tokens of appreciation, please do not disdain. Take them with you when you leave."

Bei Mingxin solemnly said: "Many thanks for Sect Hierarch’s kind intentions."

"And about Brother Liu who died in battle..."

Yin Shen Palace sighed: "I’ve also prepared some cultivation materials and living resources for his children at home, and would like you three brothers to take them with you."

The three bodyguards behind Bei Mingxin were moved: "Thank you, Sect Hierarch."

"No need for thanks."

Yin Shen Palace bowed and then took his leave.

Watching Yin Shen Palace leave, Bei Mingxin kept looking at his back, lightly saying: "Zhongyuan, you have it rough."

Ren Zhongyuan was silent for a while and said: "I must try."

"These foolproof methods, meticulous thinking... not easy to deal with."

Bei Mingxin said: "But shortly, not even two and a half months, your biggest opportunity comes, the Cultivating Gu to Become a God plan. Are you sure all Yixin Sect General Levels are in your hands?"

"Absolutely sure!"
