Several elders couldn't help but look at each other.

Pei Xianhua said: "Elder Xu's descent from the mountain is a foregone conclusion, no one should try to persuade or stop it, what we want to discuss now is how to consolidate the power of Xuanyuemen as much as possible in the three months before Elder Xu descended the mountain?" And take full control of the eight affiliated sects under his command? ”

One of the elders said with a sad face: "After more than a year of expansion, the strength of the Xuanyue Sect is only about twice as strong as that of ordinary sects, and it is not so easy to suppress the eight affiliated sects under your command!" ”

One of the outer sect elders had a fierce face, and said with a murderous face: "In my opinion, if we don't take advantage of Elder Xu's still in the sect and ask him to take action and destroy the eight affiliated sects in one fell swoop, then we won't have any worries." ”

Bei Xianhua glanced at him, shook his head and said:

"Elder Xu does have this strength, but what about after killing the eight affiliated sects?"

"Xuanyuemen can't control so much territory, without the assistance of the eight affiliated sects, we can't expand so fast, once they are eliminated, it is equivalent to abandoning martial arts, and many industries will be out of control as soon as possible."

"What's more, this kind of behavior of turning the face and denying people is really damaging to the reputation of the sect, once we do this, who will dare to follow us in the future?"

"The so-called subordinate sects are equivalent to the subordinates we subdue, they can't betray us casually, and we can't dispose of them casually, otherwise it won't be enough to convince the public."

"Moreover, in addition to the eight affiliated sects, we are also facing other threats, that is, the Great Yan Sect and the Broken Yue Sect."

"These two high-level sects are not far from our territory, if it weren't for Elder Xu's prestige, they wouldn't be as polite as they are now, and they might even turn their faces directly."

"In such a situation, even if we really destroy the eight major affiliated sects, can we continue to destroy these two high-level sects?"

"What we have to do now is to find a way to stabilize the situation and consolidate the forces, not to eliminate anyone, because potential enemies cannot be eliminated, even if the eight affiliated sects are destroyed and the two high-level sects are destroyed, there will be other forces rising, which will still pose a threat to us."

At this time, Elder Zheng Fengyu spoke:

"I have a plan, maybe I can solve some hidden dangers for the sect."

Seeing Bei Xianhua looking over, he continued: "We can release the gossip in advance to make everyone think that Elder Xu has gone down the mountain and left. ”

"If it is a force that has long had different intentions, it is likely to be ready to act after hearing this news, and if we release more news, we may be able to stimulate those forces to take the initiative."

"When the time comes, we will use thunderous means to directly suppress it, and if necessary, we can also ask Elder Xu to dispatch."

"In this way, we can not only take the opportunity to destroy the forces that have already had dissenting intentions and eliminate some potential threats in the future, but also take this opportunity to further deter other forces and let everyone know the fate of betraying Xuanyuemen."

"Besides, this time it was false news that Elder Xu had come down the mountain, so if Elder Xu really came down the mountain three months later, how could other forces dare to conclude that it was true or false? How dare you act rashly? ”

"This plan can be described as killing three birds with one stone, although it is impossible to completely eliminate the future threat of Xuanyue Gate, but at least it will relieve us of a lot of pressure."

Pei Xianhua nodded thoughtfully.

This plan, while it sounds simple, does work well.

However, this approach is ultimately a temporary solution and does not solve the underlying problem.

After thinking for a moment, he said:

"Elders, I have a proposal, you might as well listen to it."

After a pause, he continued: "I want to deeply bind the Xuanyue Sect and the eight affiliated sects together, and break up and mix all the elders, all the disciples, and all the deacons together to form a new joint sect. ”

"In the future, there will be no more Xuanyue Sect, and there will be no more eight affiliated sects, only a brand new sect, which I will name Haoyue Sect."

"All the land and industries will belong to the Haoyue Sect, and all of our current nine major sects will also be members of the Haoyue Sect, and in the future, the interests will be the same, honor and disgrace will be one, and there will be no longer any distinction between you and me."

Hearing this, the six elders were all shocked.

One of the Inner Gate Elders immediately said urgently, "How can this be done? My Xuanyue Sect has finally grown to the point where it is now, how can I easily change the door? Take the initiative to merge with the affiliated sects under your command? Isn't this a self-deprecation? Turning your back on your ancestors? ”

Several elders also objected.

The current status of the Xuanyue Sect is above that of the eight affiliated sects, and their status and Yulu are also far above the elders of the affiliated sects, if the nine major sects are combined, their status and treatment will naturally be reduced to the same as the affiliated elders.

When it comes to their own practical interests, the elders will certainly not easily agree.

Bei Xianhua naturally knew what they were worried about, glanced at a few people, and sneered:

"When is it, I still only think about the small profits in front of me, if I don't want to find a way to solve the hidden dangers of the sect, when Elder Xu comes down the mountain, how long the sect can exist is a problem."

"If you don't take advantage of Elder Xu's still in the sect to strongly promote the fusion of the nine major sects, even if you want to integrate in the future, it will not be so easy, or even if you can merge into one in the future, it may not be based on my Xuanyue Sect."

"Three months."

"There are still three months left, Elder Xu is going down the mountain, I don't know when he will be able to come back, what do the elders think, how can we maintain the current status of Xuanyue Gate? Well? ”

Pei Xianhua's face was fierce, and the majestic and heavy coercion made several elders sink in their hearts.

Tapping lightly on the armrest of the Taishi chair, Bei Xianhua said lightly: "Everyone, I will give you a stick of incense, either come up with a better way, or follow my plan." ”

"A reminder to everyone, if this matter is decided, I will resolutely implement it to the end, no matter what resistance I encounter, I will not hesitate to eradicate it, and if necessary, I will ask Elder Xu to personally suppress it."

"Don't forget, everything you have now is based on the powerful Xuanyue Gate, if the Xuanyue Gate declines, everyone will not have a good life, understand?"

Several elders glanced at each other.

Zheng Fengyu's face changed for a while, and then he spoke: "I support the decision of the door master!" ”

"After the fusion of the nine major sects, the Xuanyue Sect is still the mainstay, and everyone is still the high-level of the sect, and their status and treatment will not be bad."

"Moreover, once the nine major sects are fused, all the forces are integrated together, and the overall strength will inevitably increase by leaps and bounds, even if Elder Xu is not in the sect in the next few years, we don't have to be afraid of any forces, including the nine high-level sects, and we can't help it."

Several other elders whispered a few words and agreed.
