Chapter 248: Chapter 19 Yin Sect Leader and Believers [Additional Release 8 for Old Bookworm No. 6 of the Silver Alliance]

Yin Shen Palace spoke a lot today, and everything he said was the truth.

Because he felt that Sun Yuan was dead.

From now on, he would be Fang Che’s only mentor. At such a time, firstly, he needed to quickly exert influence to completely replace Sun Yuan’s position in Fang Che’s heart; secondly, he had to minimize Sun Yuan’s impact; thirdly, he truly felt the need to instill something in his disciple.

To prevent him from going astray or making mistakes in the future.

Therefore, he meticulously explained everything to his disciple, striving to make it simple and easy to understand.

After thinking for a moment, he continued:

"In simpler terms, for example, if you have a connection who is a Great Altar Master at the headquarters, and your relationship is so close that you could freely take anything from his table. However, when your value is not enough, you are limited to just taking little things from his table, and on your way out, he might give you a couple of packs of tea. That is the extent of the privilege you can enjoy."

"But if your value is sufficient, the benefits you receive are not just these little things. Instead, he would collaborate with you on certain endeavors where both parties could benefit. He might also maneuver you into his system, even support you to become an important figure within it, gradually elevating you to a higher position; then comes the time you return the favor to him or his family."

"If his descendants are promising, they can mutually assist each other with you, supporting and holding each other as they rise; if the descendants are unworthy, they can still rely on you for support, just as he once supported you, at least ensuring their livelihood."

"As long as he remains in power, he can continuously influence or suppress other friends or enemies. Because when your value reaches this point, those who engage with you will not be insignificant individuals. Therefore, you essentially conduct a preliminary selection for him."

"The value relationship I mentioned thus progresses through generations, layer by layer... moving downward. However, the upper echelons always consist of the same people, the same families in rotation... understand?"

Yin Shen Palace could be considered to be speaking earnestly: "Disciple, this is value!"

"Sun Yuan had his value! You have your value, and I, too, have mine."

"My value is being the Sect Hierarch of the Yixin Sect. If I were to leave this position, I would have no value at all, and there might even be people who would worry and kill to silence me."

"Do you think I don’t want to climb higher? To become a Hall Master, a Leader, then gradually maneuver to a higher position? To thus stabilize my foundation at the headquarters?"

"But I can’t. Because my value is insufficient!"

At this point.

Yin Shen Palace sighed several times at the edge of the bed.

Value, indeed!

Then he continued: "So regarding Sun Yuan’s affair, if it weren’t for you, this silent loss, our Yixin Sect would have to swallow it. No one would offend the families of the headquarters for Sun Yuan. This shows that Sun Yuan’s value was insufficient."

"I know you might not fully understand now, but from our perspective and position, that’s all we can do."

"If Sun Yuan’s revenge must be sought, it can only be you who seeks it."

Yin Shen Palace sighed.

Although saying these words to his disciple, Yin Sect Leader felt somewhat disheartened.

However, ever since the Cultivating Gu to Become a God Plan, Yin Shen Palace truly regarded Yemo as his successor, even nurturing him with an aim for higher aspirations.

So his words were just to hope that in the future, Yemo would take fewer detours.

This time, the Old Demon was genuinely pouring his heart out, earnestly educating his disciple.

Fang Che remained silent for quite a while.

From this long string of messages from Yin Shen Palace, you could tell that Yin Shen Palace’s heart was actually filled with discontent.

But Fang Che could still understand that Yin Shen Palace genuinely had no options.

Or even if there were a way, he wouldn’t seek revenge for Sun Yuan. The reasons, Yin Shen Palace had stated very clearly before: Sun Yuan’s value was insufficient!

For a living Sun Yuan, the value was not enough, let alone for a deceased Sun Yuan.

Fang Che fully understood this point.

So, he sent another message: "Master, then, where is my value?"

Yin Shen Palace smiled.

Finally, they reached this point.

It seemed that this young man had listened to quite a bit.

"Your current value is just your potential. From what I see now, it’s an unlimited potential. This is also why I, as your mentor, have great expectations for you, and even your mentor Sun Yuan was willing to sacrifice himself to protect you."

"And this is also why the disciples of the War Hall are befriending you."

Yin Shen Palace said.

The fact that the War Hall disciples were befriending Fang Che was not something Fang Che kept from Yin Shen Palace. Because this was where his value lay, how could he conceal it? Surely he had to seek credit and reward, which was only natural.

Now, it was natural that Yin Shen Palace mentioned this matter in return.

"So, this is your current value. But aside from your mentor, who can give extra support, others will watch you from afar, observing you as you take each step on your path. Even if you err along the way, no one will remind you."

"And in the future, when you have greater strength and higher status, your value will only increase."

"Moreover, you have another value, which is that due to obtaining first place in the Cultivating Gu to Become a God Plan, your name has already reached the high echelons at the headquarters. Therefore, the road ahead will be much easier for you than it was for me as your mentor."

"But don’t rush, the road needs to be walked step by step, the meal needs to be eaten one bite at a time. You need only remember the grudge against your mentor Sun Yuan. The day when you shook the world, without even a move on your part, the heads of the culprits will be brought to you on hands and knees."

Fang Che, upon seeing this, finally responded: "Master, I do not wish for them to deliver the culprit’s head to me; I want to exterminate their entire families! Leave not even a chicken or dog! I want the world to know that anyone who dares to harm my mentor, Yemo, must be prepared for the total annihilation of their family! Only thus can future tragedies be prevented!"

Upon seeing this, Yin Shen Palace couldn’t help but feel a warmth in his heart.

Yemo has a strong propensity for killing, and a strong sense of hatred; however, isn’t this a good thing?

I am also Yemo’s master, after all.

If Yemo becomes powerful and enacts such things, who would dare to touch me, Yin Shen Palace?

Yin Shen Palace smiled and replied: "Good, good, in the future as your mentor, I will rely on the esteemed name of Lord Yemo."

Fang Che replied: "Disciple is fearful, I misspoke earlier, disciple still relies on master for protection, wouldn’t dare to overstep."

"No need to be fearful, having such thoughts makes your mentor very happy. Sun Yuan, in his life, accepted you as a disciple, it was not in vain."

Yin Shen Palace sighed a little.

At this moment, he made a genuine decision.

Yin Shen Palace said: "So, the most important thing for you now is to enhance your strength, and therefore your value."

"As for your future path, I will plan it step by step for you!"

Yin Shen Palace took a deep breath, saying: "As long as you have the strength, as long as your worth is sufficient, then I, your master, will propel you to the clouds."

This had been something Yin Shen Palace had been contemplating ever since the Cultivating Gu to Become a God Plan.

Yemo’s resolute choice back then under those circumstances truly touched this old demon’s heart deeply.

But this was just one aspect.

The most important aspect was... Vice Sect Master Bi Changhong had a very favorable view of Yemo.

Bi Changhong once commented:

"Yin Shen Palace, your greatest harvest today is not the Heavenly Ladder."

This statement had always been inscribed in Yin Shen Palace’s heart.

He knew what the Vice Sect Master’s words meant.

That was Yemo!

His own disciple.

Today’s greatest harvest, the greatest display of excellence, was me, Yin Shen Palace, having such an excellent disciple, enough to cause even a high-up Sacred one like Vice Sect Master Bi to express admiration.

This proved that Yemo’s name had already been imprinted in Vice Sect Master Bi’s heart.

Just waiting for the day when destinies collide, and Yemo soars to the skies, Vice Sect Master Bi would naturally recall this once-buried name.

And Yemo’s greatest opportunity lay here.

All I needed to do was to exhaust every effort to pave the way for Yemo and get him there!

If this step succeeds, I can be at ease for the rest of my life.

At the very least, incidents like Ren Zhongyuan’s, being plotted against for six years without even a reminder from the so-called connections at the headquarters, would never occur again! It essentially means stability for the future.

-- Ren Zhongyuan and Bei Mingxin plotted for six years to seize the Sect Leader position, and Yin Shen Palace didn’t believe that the upper echelons of his faction didn’t know about it.

At the very least, they would have heard some rumors, that is certain.

But I was unaware of anything, which just goes to show that I am insignificant in the eyes of the upper echelon relationships I relied on for years!

Having or not having is insignificant.

He didn’t say anything, but it was clear in his mind.

Thus, Yemo being favored by Vice Sect Master Bi was viewed by him as a new opportunity.

Because Yin Shen Palace could no longer entrust his future to the hands of the factions at the headquarters.

Who knows when they might leave him without a place to rest in peace.

Yin Shen Palace was confident that once Yemo ascended, his future would be stable, and he could rest easy for the remainder of his life.

Or perhaps, there was even hope for further advancement.

Even when he grows old in the future, when his vigor wanes, Yemo could easily find him a leisurely position for a comfortable retirement.

This is Yin Shen Palace’s ultimate pursuit.

Of course, all of this required a premise.

That is, Yemo must be genuinely trustworthy and someone I cherish.

And now, Yin Shen Palace sincerely likes Yemo.

Especially after the death of Sun Yuan, he became even fonder of him.

Seeing Yemo’s determination to avenge Sun Yuan, and even to wipe out entire families, Yin Shen Palace was even more fond of him!

"Alright, about Sun Yuan’s matter, that’s all I’ll say to you. Remember what your master said today," advised Yin Shen Palace, "when the time is appropriate, I will remind you at any time. Additionally, remember this: Hatred need not be worn on the lips every day!"
