Chapter 362: Spiegel's Remorse
Of the four top families in the capital, in addition to the Dongfang family that escaped from the world, the remaining three are the strongest in the Nangong family, followed by the Feng family, which is broken and established, and finally the turn of the Ming family, who is low-key.
In terms of strength, the Ming family is actually not much worse than the other two, and the gap is mainly highlighted in the background and connections.
The sect behind the Ming family is also a super sect, but the situation there is similar to Sanxian Island, that is, Penglai Island before the split.
The upper sect of the Ming family also experienced an internal split, although it did not fall out of the ranks of the super sects, but it can be regarded as a broken bone.
What's more, the victorious side of the split belonged to the escapist faction, and they did not advocate monks meddling in mortal affairs.
The reason why they are still supporting the Ming family now is only because of the previous agreement between the two parties.
But other than that, the Ming family can no longer get any additional support, even if they are willing to pay a high price, but they are just unwilling to go down the mountain, what can they do.
So over the years, the Ming family has been looking for new backers, intending to regain their former glory.
But there are only a few super large sects, except for the few sects that have signed contracts with the four families, the rest are all sects that are also unwilling to pay attention to secular affairs.
These sects are either sparse in number and do not lack cultivation resources, or they have their own exclusive subordinate sects or families to worship, and they don't look down on the Ming family at all.
Over time, the Ming family gave up the plan to climb another high branch.
However, they did not give up their ambition to revive the family, but changed to another plan, and after negotiation with the upper sect, the other party agreed that the Ming family could choose two first-class sects as offerings.
In order to make up for the lack of heritage.
But this matter is not so easy to do, although the first-class sect is a little worse than the super sect, there is no shortage of families to worship below.
And who wants to grab business with the super sect, even if this super sect looks harmless, but the so-called son of heaven and a courtier.
Maybe in a few decades, people will change their minds again, and I'm afraid that they will only end up with people inside and outside.
So the Ming family is worried, seeing that the other two families are riding the dust and developing rapidly, but their own family has always stagnated, and they can only eat their old books.
In the end, there was really no trick, and the Ming family could only come up with a way that was not a solution.
That is to vigorously make friends with the younger generation of monks, especially the disciples of various sects, as the future successor of the sect master, if you can get the favor of the other party in advance, then you may be able to reap some unexpected joy in the future.
In addition, high-level figures such as Huang Qing, Wang Bing, and Wen Shan of the Special Investigation Bureau are also within the scope of the Ming family's friendship.
Especially Huang Qing, not only looks like a country and a city, but also has extraordinary talents, and his cultivation far surpasses his peers, even if he is only a third-generation disciple now, he will have a great achievement sooner or later.
And more importantly, the Ming family is very optimistic about Huang Qing's future husband, a fairy-level stunner like her, and the future husband must also be a big man who stands up to the sky.
The sect behind Huang Qing can only be regarded as second-rate, but it makes many first-class sects very jealous.
Not for anything else, because there are two masters of the super sect who are both from this second-rate sect.
Although the disciples who marry out are like water spilled out, there is still an incense in it, and if those opponents want to target Huang Qing's sect, they must first consider the attitude of the two sect masters.
This is also the reason why the Jin Dan real person in the Special Investigation Bureau is very unaccustomed to Wang Bing, but he never dares to tear his face.
When Spiegel met Xia Feng for the first time, he had actually guessed that the other party might be a disciple of a certain sect, but at that time, Xia Feng's reputation was not obvious, which made Spiegel's judgment wrong.
At that time, I only thought that Xia Feng was a second-rate sect behind him, after all, this product was too white at that time, and he almost didn't know anything about the pattern of the capital.
You must know that the capital, as the political and economic center of China, is a gathering place for the big families, and it has also become the main focus of the major hidden sects.
However, the first stop of the disciples of the Great Sect will definitely be Kyoto, so they will definitely receive a similar education before leaving the mountain.
And Xia Feng's performance was too white, which made Spiegel feel a little more contemptuous.
And now he regrets it, regrets it very much, and even suspects that Xia Feng is pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger, deliberately pretending to be stupid.
Although this kind of behavior is very shameless, but Mingjing does not dare to have the slightest dissatisfaction, it is normal for a master on the mountain to have a strange temper, which is not surprising.
But his way of dealing with it was too stupid, and for the sake of that little scruple in his heart, he didn't reveal any news.
Now it's okay, people turned around and entered the Special Investigation Bureau, and now it's even more popular, and there are even rumors that he has taken down Huang Qing Fairy, and he is also the matchmaker made by Deputy Director Wang Bing.
Putting aside everything else, if Xia Feng didn't have some skills and background, how could Deputy Director Wang Bing be able to look at it.
The other Wenshan is the descendant of a first-class sect, and it is not that he still hasn't got any good face from Huang Qing.
"Since Mr. Xia is so capable, wouldn't it be very easy for him to be emotionally moved by the divine doctor now, why don't we visit again!"
Ye Nan couldn't sit still when he heard this, and he couldn't wait to take his eldest brother to the door immediately, but now Ye Dong's body is getting worse day by day, and he doesn't know when he will be beaten back to his original form again.
"No, it's definitely not appropriate to go now, I heard that Mr. Xia has recently participated in the investigation of the Immortal Sect, and Cheng Yiru is likely to be involved in this matter, so it's definitely not appropriate to speak now!"
It's not that Spiegel doesn't care about his friend's body, his move is also for the overall situation, he didn't help anyone last time, and now he rushes to the door, which is likely to be self-defeating.
"Ahem...... Ahem...... What Brother Ming said makes sense, now that Mr. Xia is busy with affairs, I'm afraid he may not have time to pay attention to our brother, and Cheng Yiru is the key investigation target of the Special Investigation Bureau, and it is not easy for seniors to contact too much!"
The Ye family has suffered enough of the losses of those mountain masters over the years, so although Ye Dong is very disappointed, he still doesn't dare to disturb Xia Feng rashly.
Although this senior seems to be very talkative, and he is not as unattainable as other monks, Ye Dong himself still has to be cautious and cannot take an inch.
Since Xia Feng gave a promise last time, I believe that as long as the time is right, he should give a reply, and he definitely doesn't want the Ye family to urge him over and over again.
"But...... But big brother, your body can't wait, if the problem of the Immortal Sect is never solved, is it possible that we will have to sit still and wait for death?"
Ye Nan understands the truth of what the two said, but it is about the life of the eldest brother Ye Dong, how can he have the energy to think about it so much, he just wants to cure the eldest brother's illness quickly.
