Seeking Immortality In The World Of Cultivation
Chapter 1235 - Chapter 1235 Chapter 819 Four-Way Struggle _2

Chapter 1235: Chapter 819: Four-Way Struggle _2 Chapter 1235: Chapter 819: Four-Way Struggle _2 This matter, if successful, then so be it.

But should it fail–

That outcome is something he absolutely cannot accept.

Therefore,

when Meng Guan and Wei Fan, after discussing for many days without result,

they also thought of He Song.

He Song’s caution had been observed by them all along.

Perhaps, with He Song’s prudence, he could indeed point them towards a clear path.

Moreover, He Song’s identity was not simple at this time.

As a Guest Elder for both the Treasure Pavilion and the Sun Faction, whether within the Sun Faction or the Treasure Pavilion, he was considered one of their own.

But, due to these two identities,

the Sun Faction was unlikely to truly treat He Song as a Guest Elder of the Sun Faction.

A Guest Elder of the Treasure Pavilion, to the Sun Faction, might not be a particularly powerful existence,

but was almost certainly someone they could not afford to offend.

In light of this,

Meng Guan’s future struggle for the position of heir might indeed receive assistance from He Song’s status.

After all, having such a friend, who is a Guest Elder of the Treasure Pavilion, could deter those who might wish to harm Meng Guan,

since they would have to consider whether He Song might seek vengeance after his cultivation increased.

As a Guest Elder of the Treasure Pavilion, He Song may well possess such power in the future.

And if such a thing were to happen,

it’s questionable whether the Sun Faction could continue to exist.

Therefore, with these factors combined, it was only natural that Meng Guan and Wei Fan came to this place.

Now that He Song had spoken, indicating a desire to inquire about the particulars of the matter,

Meng Guan did not hide anything.

Instead, he promptly began to disclose the entirety of the matters within the Sun Faction to He Song.

According to Meng Guan,

Yi Yangzi’s favored candidates totaled four.

One was Meng Guan, a True Inheritance Disciple of the Sun Faction.

One was a Nascent Soul Grand Perfection Cultivator, a descendant of Yi Yangzi.

As for the other two, both were Gold Core Cultivators who had reached Nascent Soul Grand Perfection, whose sects also resided within the Sun Faction.

Among these four,

Meng Guan represented exceptional combat power.

The remaining three symbolized Yi Yangzi’s descendent and the intricate array of sects within the Sun Faction.

Tallying it all up, none of these four were easy to provoke.

Meng Guan, as a True Inheritance Disciple of the Sun Faction, had significant combat strength.

Moreover, over the years, he had also made illustrious contributions to the Sun Faction.

Within the Sun Faction, his reputation was exceedingly high.

Especially among the Gold Core Masters who had joined the Sun Faction from the outside, he was enormously revered.

As for that descendant of Yi Yangzi who was a Nascent Soul Grand Perfection Cultivator,

as a scion of Yi Yangzi, his status was self-evident.

In the Sun Faction, it was likely that no one dared to confront the backing that was Yi Yangzi himself.

And furthermore, this person was the blood kin of Yi Yangzi.

If the elders of his clan were to intervene, it was possible that Yi Yangzi’s attitude could undergo some other changes.

As for the remaining two,

they were Gold Core Cultivators with the backing of their sects entrenched within the Sun Faction.

With the support of their respective sects, they were people whom no one in the Sun Faction dared to provoke.

And now, the situation facing Meng Guan

was precisely this.

The other three candidates, each one of them was a tough nut to crack.

And behind each of them was a complicated network of support.

Though Meng Guan was not weak and had over the years rallied many cultivators within the Sun Faction,

to contend with the other three was still somewhat insufficient.

The Sun Faction, being a Nascent Soul Upper Sect, seldom recruited cultivators from outside.

Only when a cultivator from a minor power broke through to the Golden Core Realm would an exception be made to accept them into the sect.

Meng Guan and Wei Fan had joined the Sun Faction in this manner.

But,

even within a Nascent Soul Upper Sect, to produce a single Gold Core Cultivator demanded a considerable price.

Let alone the outside world.

In those smaller powers, cultivating a Gold Core Cultivator was undoubtedly very difficult.

Moreover, the Gold Core Cultivators cultivated by these smaller powers often become the very umbrellas protecting these small forces.

Most such breakthrough Gold Core Cultivators do not choose to join the Sun Faction after breaking through to the Golden Core Realm.

Therefore, although Meng Guan has gathered many Gold Core Cultivators who joined the Sun Faction halfway.

The number of these cultivators,

is far less than the total number of Gold Core Cultivators within the entire Sun Faction.

As a result, the forces and resources that Meng Guan could utilize naturally couldn’t compare with the other three individuals.

It was precisely because of this,

that Meng Guan felt so restless because of the existence of these three.

These three people truly were Meng Guan’s major obstacles in controlling the Sun Faction and becoming a Nascent Soul cultivator.

If the situation were left to develop on its own,

these three could very well pull Meng Guan down from his position as the heir to Yi Yangzi.

As for He Song,

upon hearing Meng Guan speak of these matters,

He Song finally understood some of the difficulties Meng Guan was facing at this moment.

However,

after learning about this,

He Song’s brows furrowed slightly as well.

The four were in contention,

each with a mountain backing them up.

Although Meng Guan held some advantages, they were not certain.

And as time passed,

whether it was the descendants of Yi Yangzi calling upon their clan elders to persuade Yi Yangzi,

or those Gold Core Cultivators with a sect behind them inviting their sect elders to have a good talk with Yi Yangzi,

such events could significantly alter Yi Yangzi’s attitude.

If Meng Guan did nothing during this time, his advantage might dwindle into a disadvantage as time went on.

Because aside from his own formidable strength,

be it Spiritual Root Aptitude or the support behind him, he actually paled in comparison to the other three.

Therefore, the previous belief He Song had that Meng Guan still held an advantage was also erased after knowing all of this.

Now, in the eyes of the current He Song,

Meng Guan not only lacked advantage but might also gradually fall into a disadvantage over time.

As for a solution to this stalemate,

He Song pondered upon it repeatedly,

but in the end, still came up with no solutions.

The thoughts that should have occurred,

Meng Guan and Wei Fan had already considered a long time ago and had thoroughly rejected them during these past ten days to half a month.

In such a situation, after He Song heard everything, he too was at a loss.

He could only sit opposite Meng Guan and Wei Fan, sipping tea, each contemplating their strategies.

Luckily,

although Meng Guan and Wei Fan had not heard any useful methods from He Song,

the three had not seen each other for many years and missed each other dearly.

Therefore, even though they heard nothing useful from He Song, the conversation between them was still quite joyful.

Meng Guan and Wei Fan both opened up about the various experiences they had gone through over the years with He Song.

As for He Song,

he did not mention his finding of the Soaring Cloud Capital but instead talked about some of his actions within the Sun Faction.

Of course, He Song always kept some secrets to himself.

It wasn’t that he distrusted his two good friends; it was because such secret skills as Soul Searching existed in the Cultivation World.

If He Song told his two friends many secrets and they later fell into misfortune and were subjected to Soul Searching,

all of He Song’s secrets might be exposed to outsiders.

By then, it would indeed be too late for regrets.

As such, to completely prevent this, He Song naturally couldn’t reveal any secrets.

Of course,

if Meng Guan and Wei Fan began to show interest in the world outside the Sun Faction,

He Song would naturally share his own observations and experiences in other ways,

which might prove helpful to his two friends.

Thus, Meng Guan and Wei Fan stayed in He Song’s mansion for several days.

And during these few days, most of what they discussed revolved around their own situations and events within the Sun Faction.

But, one day, as He Song, Meng Guan, and Wei Fan sat opposite each other in the pavilion sipping tea,

a turning point suddenly occurred regarding the affairs of the Sun Faction.
