Chapter 882 Concession
After True Lord Changchun came forward, he easily appeased everyone in the audience and completely calmed down the internal fighting in the audience during this period.
He spent a lot of effort to clear out several traitors who had taken refuge in the Miaodan Society, and dealt with them directly with thunderous means.
When the True Monarch of Changchun appeared in public and showed his cultivation, the surrounding cultivation forces that had been provoked by the Miaodan Society and had been embarrassing Changchun Guan during this period suddenly retreated.
It's one thing to take advantage of someone's danger, but it's another thing to directly confront a True Lord of Yuanshen.
The Miaodan Society clearly stated that the True Lord of Changchun had fallen, and Changchun Temple fell into internal strife. Only then did these cultivation forces dare to besiege Changchun Temple, hoping to tear a piece of flesh and blood from Changchun Temple.
Now that the True Monarch of Changchun is alive and well, the civil strife in Changchun Temple is naturally nonsense.
Not to mention, the famous Taiyi Sect has already intervened in this matter and sided with Changchun Temple.
After the local cultivation forces in Jiuqu Province retreated, the only way to go into battle was Miaodanhui.
Concerned about the threat from the Miaodan Society, after gaining the advantage, the True Monarch of Changchun did not continue to pursue those who were taking advantage of the situation, but temporarily let them go.
The True Monarch of Changchun looked confident, but in fact he was still very uneasy in his heart.
Miao Dan will be able to cross the river like this, and his strength is far superior to that of Changchun Temple. Even with the help of the Taiyi Sect, he may not be able to withstand the opponent.
I can only hope that the other party still has the laws of the Dali Dynasty in their eyes, and does not dare to act excessively, and does not dare to easily trigger a war between souls.
In the following period of time, Miao Danhui made no further moves, as if he had given up on his plot against Changchun Temple.
The magic elixir will not move, and there is no need for True Lord Changchun to initiate trouble.
In his mind, he guessed that the Miaodan Society might have given in.
In the Jiuqu Province, there are still many weak persimmons to be pinched. There is really no need for the Miaodan Society to insist on being at odds with the Changchun Guan and Taiyimen families.
Meng Zhang stayed in Changchun Temple for long enough, and Miao Danhui never made any move. He said goodbye to the True Monarch of Changchun and led the disciples of the Taiyi Sect back.
Before parting, he and True Lord Changchun agreed to take care of each other and help each other.
Shortly after Meng Zhang returned to Taiyi Gate, Xu Mengying, the leader of the Huanglian Sect, came to visit him again.
Both of them are the masters of one party. They have many affairs on weekdays and have to work hard to practice. Although they have always kept in touch, there are not many opportunities for direct face-to-face communication.
If there is no big deal, Xu Mengying usually won’t come to the door.
Sure enough, Xu Mengying came to visit this time because she had something important to discuss with Meng Zhang.
It turns out that facing the threat of large foreign merchants, Sihai Trading Company's life is getting more and more difficult.
As the original largest trading house in the Jiuqu League, even if you want to compromise or make concessions, you have nowhere to retreat or make concessions.
The Sihai Trading Company is too big and the family has a big business. Even if they sell themselves to join the company, they will dismember it, annex it and digest it, so they can feel relieved.
Unless senior executives such as Zhenjun You Hongzhi of Sihai Commercial Bank are willing to give up their lifelong career and the foundation of several generations, they will not be accepted even if they take the initiative to seek refuge.
During this period of time, True Monarch You Hongzhi has been in contact with local cultivation forces whose interests have also been harmed. He wants everyone to unite and deal with the outside world together.
True Lord You Hongzhi also contacted Taiyi Sect before.
But because Meng Zhang didn't trust him enough, he tried to avoid the matter.
Now, True Lord You Hongzhi has found the head of Huanglian Cult.
The Huanglian Sect was also a veteran sect of the original Jiuqu Alliance. In its heyday, its strength was second only to the Jade Sword Sect and the Qingyuan Sect.
After experiencing so many twists and turns, Xu Mengying finally ended the internal split and reunited the Huanglian Sect.
The current Huanglian Sect is typically big but not strong.
The sect has a huge power and a large number of disciples. However, the overall combat effectiveness of the sect is average, especially in terms of top-level combat strength, there is still only one Yuanshen True Lord, Xu Mengying.
After the large-scale merchants from the Dali Dynasty invaded the Jiuqu Province, the interests of the Huanglian Sect were severely damaged and many sources of income were lost.
The Huang Lian family has a great cause and a profound foundation, but it also has a large number of disciples to support.
After losing business income, relying solely on some spiritual fields, mining and other industries, the income is limited, and it is impossible to support so many disciples.
A qualified sect must at least be able to provide its disciples with practice techniques, a relatively safe practice environment, and certain resources.
Otherwise, you won’t be able to retain people.
No matter how powerful the sect is, if the disciples cannot benefit from the sect, why should the disciples work hard for the sect?
After the unification of the Huanglian Sect, in addition to the main altar, those branch altars distributed in various places have naturally become the responsibility and burden of the leader Xu Mengying.
The current Huanglian Sect has long been unable to make ends meet in order to maintain the daily expenses of the sect.
Years of accumulation in teaching are quickly being consumed.
If it is not replenished, the day the accumulation in the sect is exhausted will be the day the entire sect falls apart.
True Lord You Hongzhi from Sihai Trading Company came to her door at this time. Even though she knew that this person was unreliable and untrustworthy, Xu Mengying was still tempted.
It would always be good if we could concentrate the power of local cultivators and not expect to drive away these big merchants from the Li Dynasty, but only seek to be able to bargain with them so that we can retain some of our interests and gain some income.
Although Xu Mengying did not agree to join True Lord You Hongzhi's actions, she did not refuse either.
She told True Lord You Hongzhi that she needed to think about it and would reply to him as soon as possible.
Then, she came to Taiyi Gate and listened to Meng Zhang's advice.
If Meng Zhang's original intention was to follow, of course he would suggest Xu Mengying reject True Lord You Hongzhi.
But Xu Mengying had already explained to him the plight of the Huanglian Sect.
Those big foreign merchants have damaged the foundation of Huanglian Sect and become the main enemy of Huanglian Sect.
If the other party was not too powerful and knew that it was absolutely invincible, the Yellow Lotus Sect would have already started a war with the other party.
After listening to Xu Mengying's words, Meng Zhang fell into silence.
From the perspective of the Huanglian Sect, there seems to be no other way.
As a friend, Meng Zhang can provide certain help to Xu Mengying.
However, the Taiyi Sect has limited capabilities and cannot do more.
Taiyi Sect also suffered serious losses due to these large foreign merchants and lost many sources of income.
Even if Meng Zhang goes out of his way and orders the Taiyi Sect to fully support the Huanglian Sect, the Taiyi Sect cannot do this with its ability.
Moreover, as the leader of a sect, he always has to consider the interests of the sect.
You must sit with your butt straight and never abandon public service for personal reasons. This is Meng Zhang's requirement for himself.
