Gao Wu: My martial arts training relies solely on hard work

Chapter 176 Joining the Alliance
On the way back to Zhenwumen.

Zhang Taifeng directly told Zhang Cuifeng to stay away.

He was ashamed.

Zhang Cuifeng looked aggrieved.

As a veteran high-ranking grandmaster, is he wrong to want to advance to a grand master or even a higher realm?

Yes, his performance was a bit unbearable.

But which master can withstand such temptation?

The more he thought about it, the more aggrieved he became, and he couldn't help but look at Zhao Xuan: "Senior nephew Zhao Xuan, do you think Zhenwu Sect should join the Taoist Alliance?"

Zhao Xuan looked at the expressionless Zhang Taifeng and decided not to take the issue: "My nephew is humble and his thoughts are not important."

Zhang Cuifeng immediately raised his voice and said, "As a true successor of our sect and with a master level cultivation, you are qualified to enter the Zhenwu Palace to discuss matters."

"The sect has trained you for so long. You should share the sect's worries. How can you avoid talking about it?"

Zhao Xuan had no choice but to think for a while and said: "Corporal Li Xian must have something up his sleeve."

"Sanqingguan Daozi did not hesitate to put down his dignity and tried his best to invite this sect to join the alliance. I guess it was not to take care of the Taoist branches and generously teach the higher realms."

"Junior nephew inferred from the Taoist dispute mentioned by Dao Sansheng that he probably wants our sect to be the vanguard and fight to the death with Buddhism and the Tianshen Sect."

"Looking at the battles between Wei and Jin, the Tianshen Sect wooed the Shengxue Palace, and the Ten Thousand Buddhas Temple turned from active to passive, wooing the aristocratic families of the Southern Jin Dynasty. I think it was all premeditated."

He has always believed that there is no free lunch.

Others are rushing to give you exercises, but you are dreaming.

Zhang Cuifeng said without comment: "In your opinion, in order to protect our disciples, our sect should not join the alliance?"

Zhao Xuan was heartbroken when he heard this, and Zhang Cuifeng was obviously inclined to join the alliance.

Looking at Zhang Taifeng again, his expression was indifferent, unmoved at all.

He shook his head: "On the contrary, the head master only needs to tell the truth to the elders of the sect, and I am afraid that more than [-]% of them will agree to join the alliance."

Zhang Cuifeng was a little surprised: "Why?"

Zhao Xuan said calmly: "Man will die for wealth, and birds will die for food. It is human nature for warriors to fight tooth and nail for the resources of their skills."

"Even if you know there will be dangers, when the benefits are large enough, there will always be people who get rich and rich from the dangers."

"Most of the more than ten thousand disciples of our sect are determined to pursue the path of martial arts, and they will definitely not miss such a good opportunity."

Putting aside his grievances with Dao Sansheng, from a purely human perspective, Zhenwu Sect joining the Dao Alliance is in line with the people's wishes.

In front of people of Sanqingguan, he would definitely not say such things.

But when talking to Zhang Cuifeng in private, he must tell the truth.

Zhang Cuifeng sighed: "I think so too."

"It is obvious that Sanqingguan has a plan, and I can see it clearly. But such a plan on the surface is always controllable, and it is better than a secret plan."

"Go back and summon all the elders. You and I will support joining the alliance."

The temptation of the Grand Master was great, but it was not enough to make him lose his mind.

It’s just a matter of weighing the pros and cons and deciding what you think is the best choice.

When he said this, he paid special attention to the change in Zhang Taifeng's face.

Seeing that Master didn't have a bad face, he was greatly relieved.

Zhao Xuan coughed lightly: "Uncle Master, should we open up the situation a little bit?"

Zhang Cuifeng looked at him without knowing why: "What do you mean, nephew?"

Zhao Xuan said seriously: "Uncle Master, according to Sanqing Guan, there are three forces that inherit the immortal world in the world, Sanqing Guan, Ten Thousand Buddhas Temple and Tianshen Sect."

"What we are saying is that it is not safe to put eggs in one basket. How about each sending some disciples to join the three families?" "Look, this has two major advantages. First, no matter who wins in the end, it can preserve the martial tradition. Continuously.”

"Secondly, stones from other mountains can be used to attack jade. If you bring together the three schools of martial arts and learn from their strengths, you may be able to go higher and further."

Zhang Cuifeng looked dull upon hearing this, then suppressed his anger: "What nonsense are you talking about? Not to mention that this matter is against morality, you think the three factions are all fools, can't you tell the difference at all?"

Zhao Xuan touched his nose.

When it comes to morality, he can't compare to Zhang Cuifeng. After all, he is also lacking in this thing.

As for how to win the trust of the three sects, he did have some ideas: "Of course the three sects are not stupid, but among the tens of thousands of disciples of the Zhenwu Sect, are they really in harmony?"

"Tianshu Peak was targeted by various halls and peaks some time ago."

"Can't the head master choose a few trustworthy disciples, pretend to be dissatisfied with the sect, and then go along with the flow and be attracted by other forces?"

"It doesn't take too much, it can be done by dozens or hundreds, but it needs to be led by a high-level person, otherwise you won't be able to get access to more advanced techniques."

He thought it was possible, but Zhang Cuifeng righteously rejected it: "No, our sect must not be divided."

Zhao Xuan shut up at the right time.

He's just giving advice.

Whether Zhang Cuifeng, a half-hearted decision-maker, adopts it or not, he has no control over and doesn't care.

At this time, Zhang Taifeng suddenly asked: "You just said what the senior leaders and disciples of our sect would do, so what do you think? Are you going to join the three forces alone?"

Zhao Xuan scratched his head: "It is very risky to be a young man. Juniors don't need to go to such trouble. From time to time, arresting a few core disciples of the three sects, torture them, and ask them about their skills can actually achieve the effect."

As the saying goes, if there are no guns or cannons, the enemy will make them for us.

"But this is only for individuals, and the identity must be hidden. Once the sect does this, it will only attract the three families to jointly attack, and there will be no burial place."

Seeing that Zhang Taifeng's expression was not very good, he added in a low voice: "This junior also wants to learn from my uncle's pioneering skills, but he is not talented enough, so he can only take the wrong approach."

Zhang Taifeng smiled calmly: "There is nothing wrong with doing this. In my opinion, as long as you don't go astray, it's okay."

He just asked casually and never thought about interfering with Zhao Xuan.

Zhang Cuifeng's eyes widened. Isn't this considered a crooked path?

So in your opinion, what does crooked path mean?
Zhao Xuan looked at Zhang Cuifeng: "Did you hear this, Master Master? Uncle Master has no objection to our sect joining the Tao Alliance, but he is just afraid that you will take the wrong path."

In fact, when Zhang Taifeng protected him in front of Sanqingguan, he had guessed Zhang Taifeng's character.

If he thinks it is right and he has the strength, he will do it.

And he will not interfere too much with other people's choices, even if that person is the head of Zhenwu Sect and his direct disciple.

That's why he left the choice of whether to join the Dao League in Zhang Cuifeng's hands.

He has his own way, whether he joins the Taoist sect or not, it doesn't matter.

It doesn't matter to him whether the Zhenwu Sect should be added to the Dao Sect or not.

After being prompted by Zhao Xuan, Zhang Cuifeng also understood what Zhang Taifeng was thinking and said slightly excitedly: "Disciples must be cautious and live up to Master's expectations."

Zhao Xuan shook his head when he heard this.

When Zhang Cuifeng said this, Zhang Taifeng was probably already disappointed in his heart.

A person with extremely firm beliefs like him should not care about other people's opinions, let alone change himself because of other people's opinions.

This is why he is so powerful.

Zhao Xuan still didn't say anything, Sanqingguan would give him a little sweetness at first.

I'm afraid it's not that easy to get more benefits.
