Chapter 448 Appointment Troubles

Chapter 448 Appointment Troubles
Soon a few days passed and Chai Xin's transfer order was finally issued.

"Uncle Junior Master, it seems that the higher-ups really value you. Yongning Prefecture is a wealthy place, and ordinary Saint Immortals transferred out of town don't get this kind of treatment!"

Zhao Yuan took the transfer order made of dragon blood silk from Chai Xin, and an expression of surprise and envy immediately appeared on his face.

"Why, you know a lot about Yongning Prefecture?"

Chai Xin, on the other hand, looked calm and asked indifferently.

After all, he had just arrived in the fairy world and only knew a general idea of ​​many pieces of information, not a deep understanding.

Even though I have checked the memories of many Golden Immortals and Ancestral Immortals, it is impossible for me to receive all the details, so I usually only choose to read the key information.

Otherwise, if you accept everything, it will inevitably affect your own will over time.

Of course, this is also related to the fact that Chai Xin lived too short a time.

Although the time acceleration he experienced has exceeded a million years, he spent most of these long years in seclusion practicing or refining magic weapons, and did not venture out into the world.

The life we ​​actually live is less than a hundred years.

If one were to swallow up all the memories of thousands, tens of thousands, or even hundreds of thousands or millions of years, the impact on oneself would be too great.

Even with Chai Xin's strong faith in Taoism, accidents could easily happen.

When he lived as long as Yi Zu, even if he absorbed the memories of several immortals, he would be able to digest them safely - most of the immortals only lived less than one-tenth of his age.

Moreover, as your cultivation level improves, your willpower will naturally increase, and the pressure of digesting other people's memories will be much less.

For example, to digest a million years of memory, a Yuanxian cultivator would need one or two days, while a Shengxian might only need two or three hours.

If it were a supreme immortal, the breathing technique would be enough to refine everything, and it wouldn't cause any burden to oneself.

"This Yongning Prefecture is the capital of the thirty-three prefectures in Yongning Prefecture! The status of a capital is completely different from that of an ordinary prefecture."

Zhao Yuan had been with Chai Xin for some time and knew a lot about this junior master's situation, so he was not surprised by his question.

After listening to Zhao Yuan's introduction, Chai Xin couldn't help but feel a little surprised. The strength and foundation of these branch temples completely overturned his previous guesses.

In his original understanding, these branch temples were merely vassals of the main temple and had to obey the orders of the top leaders of the main temple. Their strength could not be compared with that of the main temple at all.

But in fact, although most of the branch temples were indeed as he had guessed, they actually had very little autonomy and had to consult the main temple on many matters.

However, the status of each state's capital is different from that of ordinary prefectures.

The so-called capital is the head of the thirty-three prefectures of Yongning Prefecture, such as Yongning Prefecture. The Yongning Prefecture branch altar has the right to govern the branch altars of other prefectures within the state.

Only when the top leaders of the Yongning Prefecture branch feel it is necessary to consult with the main temple will they report to the higher authorities; the rest can be handled on their own.

In other words, the leader of the branch altar in each state capital is the boss of the other branch altars in the prefectures!

"In addition, Yongning Prefecture, where Yongning Prefecture is located, also has an extraordinary status among the three thousand states, ranking as high as 83rd!"

As he continued to talk, the excitement on Zhao Yuan's face gradually intensified, as if he felt honored by the special treatment given to Chai Xin by the higher-ups.

"And the capital city branches of the top 100 states have extraordinary strength and heritage, enough to rival many first-rate forces."

According to him, each of the top 100 states is extremely wealthy, and their strength and foundation are far beyond the reach of other states.

Especially the capital cities of the top ten states, whose foundations are even comparable to those of the top-notch forces!
Therefore, under normal circumstances, those who can serve as the altar master of the capital of the top 100 states must at least have the cultivation level of half a step to immortality.

There are even rumors that the masters of the branch altars in the top ten state capitals are all the most powerful among the immortals!
These altar masters are not only powerful, they also hold positions in the main altar. At the very least, they are members of the Council of Elders, which means they are in high positions of power.

For a Yuanxian-level young man like Chai Xin, even if his combat power is not inferior to the best among the Saint Immortals, he should not be given the position of the altar master of the capital of the top 100 states.

At most, he would be given the title of altar master of a capital city of a state with a population of more than a thousand, or altar master of a non-capital city of a state with a population of less than a hundred, which would be completely worthy of his strength and status.

It is indeed incredible that he could become the 83rd ranked leader of the Yongning Prefecture capital.

The news spread quickly, and not only Chai Xin but also many members of the Shenzhou Sect were shocked.

"Humph! A kid from the Yuanxian realm can actually be the leader of the Yongning Mansion branch temple? These old guys above are really going backwards. What the hell are they doing!"

"Which of the top 100 states is not a treasure land coveted by the alien enemies, not to mention that it is the capital! Seeing that the war is imminent, how can that young boy defend it?"

"Not to mention the great enemies from other worlds, the fights between the masters of the various major forces in Yongning Prefecture alone are enough to give that kid a hard time!"

For a moment, the entire Shenzhou Gate was in an uproar.

Not to mention the numerous disciples, many old elders who had already retired from worldly affairs were so frightened by the news that they came out of seclusion.

Each of the top 100 states is of great significance to Shenzhoumen, especially in recent years when Shenzhoumen has been gradually declining. Such a significant interest cannot be lost.

Upon learning that the top brass had actually appointed a Yuanxian-level junior to be the leader of the Yongning Prefecture branch, all of these old guys could no longer sit still.

They did not go looking for trouble with Chai Xin. After all, they were all older people and still had some dignity to save, so they would not embarrass a young man.

Most importantly, everyone knows that Yi Zu is the most protective of his people.

It would not be a big deal for ordinary disciples to criticize Master Yi himself when they have nothing to do, but if he knew that there were elders targeting his disciples...

That would be really a disaster!
Many people who witnessed Yi Zu protecting his people have actually been lost in the long river of time. Only those who have reached the immortal realm or above still have some memories of them.

After all, the lifespan of an immortal is extremely long. Even if he had not personally seen Yi Zu lose his temper for his disciples, he had definitely heard the elders mention it.

Among the many immortal elders in Shenzhou Sect, everyone knows that they must never bully the weak and harass the disciples of Yizu, otherwise the end will be extremely miserable.

Many years ago, a great-great-grandson of Emperor Yu had evil intentions towards Biheng Yuanjun, the eighth disciple of Yi Zu. When Yi Zu found out, he beat the great-great-grandson to a pulp and threw him in front of Emperor Yu.

Not only was the Jade Emperor not angry, but he personally apologized to Yi Zu and sent that great-grandson directly into reincarnation!

The great-great-grandson suffered through reincarnation for a thousand lifetimes in the lower world before being quietly taken back to heaven by his father, a grandson of Emperor Yu. Since then, the great-great-grandson has been much more low-key. As for holding a grudge, his own father behaved like a grandson when he saw Yi Zu, so what revenge could he take?
He is the great-great-grandson of Emperor Yu. If anyone else dared to target Yi Zu’s disciples, he would be killed immediately!

Regardless of whether Emperor Yu was completely willing to deal with his great-great-grandson, the fact that he was willing to do this for Yizu clearly declared his attitude to everyone.

Anyone who dares to provoke Yi Zu without reason will have to pay the price!

Besides, for a figure like Emperor Yu, he had too many grandchildren to count, let alone great-great-grandchildren?
If it weren't for the fact that his son and grandson were begging for mercy, he would have killed that good-for-nothing with a single blow.

Moreover, in Emperor Yu’s heart, the status of ordinary sons and grandsons may not be as high as that of Yizu!
After all, before Emperor Yu became emperor, he had received a lot of care and guidance from Yizu, and he must still be grateful for this old friendship.

What's more, over the years, countless wives, children and grandchildren of Emperor Yu had died, and the only old friend who had accompanied him the longest was actually Yizu.

Now that Yizu has entered his old age, Emperor Yu must be more fond of him and will not blame him at all.

This is like a secular family. Seeing that their elders are already very old, they should try their best to coax and please them. Otherwise, how long can they stay together?
Many people even think that the reason why the top leaders handed over the Yongning Prefecture branch altar to Chai Xin was because Emperor Yu was nostalgic and too nostalgic for Yizu!

However, everyone also understood that with Emperor Yu's status, it was impossible for him to ask about such a small matter. It was most likely that those senior officials were guessing the emperor's intentions on their own.

Moreover, if this matter really reached the ears of God, Emperor Yu would probably just sigh and nod, letting Yi Zu be happy.

But this kind of thing is unacceptable to many elders of Shenzhou Sect. On the one hand, it is for the benefit of the sect; but the fundamental reason is still for their own interests.

The position of the leader of the Yongzhou branch altar has been vacant for more than 1,300 years since the death of the previous leader, and no new candidate has been chosen.

The reason for this is that this position is too critical and represents too great an interest, so all the forces within the Shenzhou Gate are unwilling to let it go easily.

But no one expected that after many elders had been fighting for this position for more than 1,300 years, it would eventually fall into the hands of a young man who had just joined the team!
It was precisely for this reason that those old guys could no longer sit still and went to the Presbyterian Church to make trouble.

"The power structure in Yongning Prefecture is complex and intricate. There are more than dozens of top powers that have set up branches there. If he, a young man who has just joined the sect, goes there, he will probably be chewed up without leaving any residue."

"I'm afraid that before the alien army arrives, the foundation of our Shenzhou Sect's Yongning Prefecture branch will be unstable, and it may even affect the entire thirty-three prefectures of Yongning Prefecture!"

"Just because he is a disciple of Master Yi, he is treated so specially? This is simply playing with the interests of the sect!"

"Ancestor Yi has indeed made great contributions to the world, and no matter how generous the treatment given by the sect is, it is not excessive. But there are many ways to treat Ancestor Yi well, how can you treat the foundation of a state as a joke?"

Outside the gate of the Presbyterian Church, a dozen old men with gray hair and beards glared and cursed without caring about their image.

Their cursing was so loud that it shook the entire infinite world within the Shenzhou Gate, and could be heard clearly in every place.

But at this moment, the door of the Presbyterian Church suddenly opened, and a gray-robed figure slowly stepped out.

"This matter has been settled and cannot be changed. Please don't make a fuss here. You are all old people, and you are still cursing like a shrew. How can you be so disrespectful!"

The man in gray robe looked to be no more than forty years old, but the vicissitudes in his eyes showed that he had gone through a very long life.

"When will the Council of Elders decide? We are all council members, how can we not know?"

"Yes, such an important matter cannot be decided hastily!"

"We must convene a parliamentary meeting to renegotiate this matter..."

When the group of old guys saw the person coming, they suddenly quieted down a little, but they were still relentless and refused to let the matter go easily.

"According to the sect rules, except for the appointment of the deputy headmaster and the first ten altar masters, all other matters can be voted on by the speaker and the nine vice speakers first. If more than half of the votes are in favor and the speaker does not veto, there is no need to convene a general meeting of members."

The man in gray robe had an indifferent expression, and did not show any emotion at all because of the excitement of these people.

"In fact, this appointment has been discussed by the Speaker and the nine Vice Speakers. More than half of the votes were in favor, and the Speaker did not veto it. Therefore, it has been decided and cannot be changed. Unless... you ask the headmaster to come forward."

After saying this, he turned around and walked back to the Presbyterian Church without caring about everyone's reactions, and the door closed again.

Those old guys who were shouting in front of the door fell silent in an instant.

The Speaker did not veto it, and more than half of the Deputy Speakers also voted in favor. What else can they do?

Could it be that, as the gray-robed man said, he was going to ask the headmaster for judgment?
Not to mention that they would never dare to disturb the headmaster for such a matter. Even if they had the courage, the final result would most likely not be what they wanted.

It is a well-known fact that the headmaster respects Yi Zu. Moreover, even the Council of Elders has approved this matter. How could the headmaster obstruct it?
"The Speaker...actually agreed to this?"

"This shouldn't happen. With the wisdom of the Speaker, how could he hand over Yongning Mansion to a youngster who is still wet behind the ears!"

"Alas, the matter is settled anyway, and there is no point in saying more. Who would have thought that after more than a thousand years of fighting, it would eventually lead to a wedding dress for a junior."

The old guys all looked confused and unwilling, but since things had come to this point, they could only accept it. After expressing their feelings, they all retreated.

At the same time, Chai Xin, who was the core of this incident, seemed to be uninvolved and set out on the journey to Yongning Prefecture together with Yizu.

"Master, how come the Yongning Prefecture, such a popular place, fell into the hands of this disciple?"

On the way, Chai Xin directly asked the doubts in his heart.

When communicating with a strong person like Yi Zu, it is best to say whatever you want to say. Keeping things to yourself will make you seem petty and make people look down on you.

"With your talent and luck, what does a mere Yongning Prefecture mean to you? Moreover, is it really that easy for you to be the leader of the Yongning Prefecture branch?"

Yi Zu had a smile on his face as always, and his tone was as gentle as the spring breeze.

"Many people only see the thief eating meat, but fail to see the thief being beaten. It is not easy to be the altar master of the capital of the top 100 states! What's more, you are just a Yuanxian disciple on the surface. When you go to take up this position, there will be unrest inside and outside."

Chai Xin raised his eyebrows slightly and smiled calmly: "Of course these disciples understand, but they are just curious about how the top leaders would easily agree to hand over such a huge benefit to me..."

"You are confused because you are in a difficult situation! Your master has gone with you. In the eyes of those guys, what kind of accidents can happen in Yongning Mansion?"

Yi Zu's words awakened the dreamer.
