Chapter 384: Competing for Wooing (I)
Since the Industrial Revolution, technology has advanced by leaps and bounds.
On the contrary, the path of cultivation has rapidly declined as the vitality of heaven and earth has become thinner, so in the battle between technology and extraordinary power, technology has occupied an absolute upper hand, and since then it has entered the era of science and technology for ordinary people, and the era of the end of the Dharma for cultivators.
Therefore, since entering the modern era, the extraordinary power has been completely suppressed by the power of science and technology, and it will no longer be the glory of the past.
Although the cultivators who have supernatural power in their hands have the power far beyond ordinary people, faintly above the world, they also admit in their hearts that this is no longer the era when they can dominate the world as cultivators, no matter how strong their personal strength is, they are only weak in the face of the powerful state apparatus.
However, Ye Chen's battle made everyone in the cultivation world realize that even if they had entered the era of science and technology, as long as their personal cultivation strength was raised to the extreme, they could also overwhelm the current world, even if the powerful state machine was not enough to fear, one person was enough to fight against a country.
Although Ye Chen's battle is only a small victory when he looks at the collision level between the entire transcendent side and the technology side, it cannot change the overall situation in the world where the transcendent side is completely suppressed by the technology side.
But the incident itself was a great encouragement to all practitioners, and it gave them a shot in the arm and made them feel confident again in the transcendent path they were sticking to.
Some cultivators in later generations even regarded this event as a prelude to the later restart of the earth's transcendent era.
And Ye Chen was also crowned a god after this battle, and was regarded as an idol and role model by countless Chinese cultivators, completely establishing his status as the first person in the Chinese cultivation world.
......
At this time, Ye Chen didn't know the far-reaching impact he had caused, but he had already felt the recent impact.
He took Chiba Mako back to Shengtian, and as soon as he arrived home on the front foot after placing her briefly, the back foot of the dragon group came to the door.
There were a total of two people in the dragon group this time, one was Lin Shanhai, the deputy director who came to invite him last time, and the other was Lei Qianzhong, the leader of the dragon group.
"Team Leader Lei, you guys are well-informed enough, I just got home, and my ass hasn't been hot yet, so you came to the door. ”
Ye Chen was half joking and half serious.
No need to ask, the other party can know that he is back so quickly, he must have arranged eyeliner near his house to keep watch, otherwise it would not have come so quickly.
Although Ye Chen also knew that with his current status and strength, the other party's surveillance might not be out of malice, but anyone who was monitored like this might feel uncomfortable, so it was appropriate to give the other party a little warning, so as not to gain an inch.
"Your Excellency the Night Emperor has made a great reputation in Dongying, and he is also eager to seek talents, and he is worried that someone will have some bad ideas for His Excellency the Night Emperor's relatives and friends, so he has used some monitoring and protection methods without Your Permission, and I hope that Your Excellency the Night Emperor is not strange. ”
Lei Qianzhong obviously heard the meaning of Ye Chen's words, and said apologetically.
"If Your Excellency the Night Emperor feels that these actions have violated the privacy of you and your family, I solemnly apologize to you on behalf of the Dragon Group, and can immediately withdraw these measures. ”
Ye Chen saw that Lei Qianzhong's apology was quite sincere, and most of the unhappiness in his heart dissipated.
"Forget it, as long as you remove the surveillance, this matter is over. ”
Ye Chen waved his hand lightly and said, how can you say that the country is also standing behind this surveillance, and it is not possible to make it unpleasant with the country because of this little thing.
Lei Qianzhong and Lin Shanhai also secretly breathed a sigh of relief when they saw this situation.
After all, the current Night Emperor is very different from before, even their dragon group and even the country dare not despise it, otherwise they would not appear here now.
The Night Emperor made such a big move in Dongying this time, I don't know how many countries and forces have been targeted, if they don't hurry up and make the first move, in case other countries or forces pull the Night Emperor over, it will be too late to regret it.
"Tell me, why are you two in such a hurry to come to me?"
Ye Chen asked lightly.
Lei Qianzhong said: "The purpose of our visit this time is actually to talk to His Excellency the Night Emperor about the things that have not been discussed before, and to hire His Excellency the Night Emperor to come to our Dragon Group as the guest elder." ”
"Oh?" Ye Chen was noncommittal.
Lei Qianzhong's intention to come was already in his expectation, after all, the dragon group had already wanted to hire him as the guest elder, but he couldn't do it because of the four elders of the Wind Tiger, Yunlong, and the Dragon.
Now that the four elders of Fenghu, Yunlong, and have been subdued by him and taken in as slaves, it is impossible to get in the way anymore, plus he has done such a big thing in Dongying, which further confirms his strong strength, it is impossible for the dragon group and the country not to be moved, and it is expected to invite him again.
It's just one time and another.
At that time, some of the conditions offered by the dragon group really made him very tempted.
For example, you can purchase cultivation resources from the state at cost price;
For example, the power to mobilize part of the state's intelligence forces, as well as the authority to access some of the state's confidential information;
Another example is to mobilize the country's elite forces to protect their families for a long time, and so on.
But things are very different today.
The four elders of the Dragon Group, the Wind Tiger Cloud Dragon, have all been taken in by him as slaves, and with these four loyal servants in the Dragon Group, even if he does not join the Dragon Group himself, as long as he needs to, he can also mobilize the resources of the Dragon Group through the Four Elders of the Wind Tiger Cloud Dragon for his own use.
In that case, why did he join the dragon group to put an extra layer of restraint on his body?
Lei Qianzhong and Lin Shanhai glanced at each other, and a look of difficulty flashed in their eyes.
When they came before, they had expected that the invitation would probably not go well.
Masters have tempers.
Ye Chen had already agreed to their invitation to go to the imperial capital, showing that he agreed to serve as the elder of the Dragon Group.
But as a result, there was civil strife in the dragon group, not only did they not hire Ye Chen as the guest veteran as promised, but they released other people's pigeons once, and even some of the elders in the group wanted to bully the weak, and made a big deal with others, if they hadn't done anything else, they wouldn't necessarily do what kind of thing.
When something like this happens, it is inevitable that anyone will have an idea in their heart.
If you don't turn your face into an enemy, you can already be considered self-contained, and then how easy is it to invite people? I think that people are Chinese cabbage sold in the vegetable market, you can buy it when you say it, and you don't want it if you say you don't want it!
As soon as they thought of this, Lei Qianzhong and Lin Shanhai couldn't help but grit their teeth in their hearts and secretly scolded the four elders of Fenghu, Yunlong.
If it weren't for them, Ye Chen would have been the guest elder of their dragon group at this time, where would there be so many things?
