The woman looked very spicy and even a little arrogant, but because she was very beautiful and the backstage was hard enough, everyone present was suddenly silent.

Everyone present was a representative of the gate faction who came to the Tianmu Sect to watch the ceremony, and they all knew the identity and background of this woman, this woman was a master of the Sword Pavilion, and most importantly, her own grandfather was the Mahayana Sword Venerable of the Sword Pavilion, and he was definitely a figure that could not be provoked.

The woman stood on the steps, blocking Xiao Cheng behind her, wearing a red skirt, a bit of a woman who did not let her eyebrows sassy temperament, and her picturesque eyebrows frowned slightly, looking a little domineering.

Xiao Cheng was stunned, of course he knew the woman in front of him, wasn't it Lin Yueran, who had played chess with him a few times?

He didn't know much about Lin Yueran, he only knew that Lin Yueran was the master of Phoenix Island, and in order to reach the peak of Yuanying, he seemed to have a male and female meaning for the pavilion master Li Chengyi, and Li Chengyi once found a Taoist companion and was Lin Yueran's second senior sister, but later he died......

Lin Yueran is a very straightforward and pungent woman, and she has played chess a few times in the sword, but she is quite interesting.

"Why is the Lord of the Forest Sect here?" Xiao Cheng asked with a smile, and at the same time, the people of the Sword Pavilion also knew each other, so they naturally had a sense of intimacy.

"This is not the place to talk, let's talk in another place!" Lin Yueran waved her hand lightly, opened the way with the other two female deacons, and left the main hall with Xiao Cheng, leaving a group of strong men looking at each other.

Coming to the temporary residence arranged by the Tianmu faction, there were more than 20 people in the delegation of the Sword Pavilion to watch the ceremony this time, not only Lin Yueran and the three of them, many faces were very familiar, but Xiao Cheng couldn't name them.

Li Chengyi said that he would arrange some people to participate in the Ascension Hall of Venerable Lingyu with Xiao Cheng, lest Xiao Cheng not know what to do, but Xiao Cheng did not expect that so many people would come, and he really paid enough attention to Venerable Lingyu's Ascension Ceremony.

Lin Yueran slapped open the jade seal of a jar of wine and poured a glass for Xiao Cheng, Xiao Cheng took a sip of wine before asking with a smile: "Master Linmen, why did you come to the Tianmu Sect!"

"I've been here for two days, but you haven't arrived, I'm quiet, I haven't been out of the Sword Pavilion for a long time, this time the pavilion master senior brother is a little worried, I'm here!" Lin Yueran took a sip of wine and explained casually.

"I see, but what did those people block me just now?" Xiao Cheng asked directly.

"This is not simple, right now that Venerable Ling Yu is about to ascend, on the one hand, she will definitely leave a lot of benefits before she ascends, such as treasures, such as special Dao Technique Heart Sutra or something.

On the other hand, she also let out the words, the Tianmu faction wants to form an alliance with other sects......" Seeing that Xiao Cheng was puzzled, Lin Yueran glanced at Xiao Cheng before saying softly.

After Lin Yueran's explanation, Xiao Cheng immediately understood the key, it turned out that the Lingyu Venerable was about to soar, so the Tianmu faction lost the only Mahayana Venerable, so the comprehensive strength of the Tianmu faction would definitely be greatly reduced.

The existence of a Mahayana Venerable is a great deterrent, especially in a holy land sect like the Tianmu School, and the importance of the Mahayana Venerable is even more self-evident.

Without the protection of the Mahayana Venerable, will there be any idea of the side sect attacking the Tianmu sect? Will the Tianmu sect lose its qualification as one of the ten holy lands? This is even a matter of life and death.

The ascension of the Mahayana Venerable is a good thing for any sect, and it will leave behind a lifetime of experience in cultivation and the methods she has created, etc., and if she succeeds in ascending to immortality, the Heart Sutra she practiced will become the Immortal Sutra.

The greater the number of Mahayana Venerables who have ascended from a sect, the more it can illustrate the profound Cheng dù of a sect's heritage, and the success of the Lingyu Venerable in ascending to the Immortal is bound to be a great boost for the Tianmu Sect.

But everything has two sides, and the bad side is that no matter whether Ling Yu Venerable ascends to immortality or not, the Tianmu sect will lose a Mahayana Venerable.

In this case, the Tianmu faction must consider the development of Venerable Ling Yu after he leaves, will the Tianmu faction collapse because of this?

The decline is certain, the Tianmu Sect can become one of the top ten holy places, and it actually has a lot to do with Venerable Ling Yu, not every holy place has a Mahayana Venerable.

Mahayana Venerables are extremely rare, and for the Tianmu School, there may not be another Mahayana Venerable in a hundred years or hundreds of years, and they have to think not only about the present, but also about the future.

Now the cultivation world is very calm, but no one can guarantee that there will not be a large-scale Xuan War in the future, and at that time, the Tianmu Sect will become very dangerous in the absence of Mahayana Venerables.

Of course, Venerable Lingyu is only a small part of the comprehensive strength of the Tianmu faction, in addition to the Venerable Lingyu Tianmu faction, there are Venerables of other realms, but Venerable Lingyu is the peak Venerable of Mahayana, and he is a being who stands in the clouds and overlooks the world, and his deterrent power is greater than his own strength.

Moreover, the Tianmu faction is a sect composed of women, women are very different from men, and women are more inclined to be sensual, which causes women to need a sense of security more than men.

Therefore, during this critical period, the Tianmu faction released a message that it planned to form an alliance with other sects and sign a five-hundred-year mutually beneficial strategic alliance contract.

The Tianmu Sect is an independent sect, after thousands of years of accumulation, the background is extremely profound, if it can form an alliance with the Tianmu Sect, no matter which sect it is, it will gain huge benefits, and the same is true for the Sword Pavilion.

After the Tianmu Sect formed an alliance with other sects, it would also have great benefits for its own development, and at the same time, it would also have an extra guarantee.

The Tianmu faction and the Sword Pavilion have been friendly for generations, and the relationship is naturally more inclined to form an alliance with the Sword Pavilion, but the alliance is not child's play, let alone emotional, it is necessary to take into account the interests of the Tianmu faction itself, and maximize the interests.

Therefore, even if he is emotionally biased towards the Sword Pavilion, it is impossible to form an alliance lightly, and for the Tianmu faction, there are many choices, the sects in the ten holy lands can be chosen, and there are some other coalition forces that can also form alliances.

In the end, there are more than 30 sect forces that can form an alliance. At this time, many sects that were qualified to form an alliance attached more importance to this Ascension Ceremony, and they all wanted to form an alliance with the Tianmu Sect.

Since you want to form an alliance, you definitely need to negotiate, the two sects will offer different conditions, what benefits can you give me, what benefits can I give you, of course, they both want to get more benefits, and they don't want to suffer losses, so the alliance needs to negotiate and compete together.

After listening to Lin Yueran's explanation, Xiao Cheng couldn't help but suddenly realize, no wonder so many people blocked him before and asked about Venerable Ling Yu's situation, I'm afraid it was all because of this reason.

Staying in the dormitory all night last night would naturally touch the sensitive nerves of these people, and guess if he would have secretly reached some kind of agreement with Venerable Ling Yu.

"And Uncle Xiao, you are the one who negotiated this time...... Regarded as the main envoy, you need to decide in the negotiation, and the biggest competitor of the Sword Pavilion this time is naturally the Kunlun Sect of the First Holy Land.

It is said that it was Ning Qianxi who came to negotiate and watch the ceremony this time, and it is a little similar to you, Kunlun's only little aunt, hehe......" Lin Yueran showed a gloating smile, as if she was not from the Sword Pavilion.
