Chapter 231 The Unavoidable Hongmen Banquet
Chapter 231 The Unavoidable Hongmen Banquet
There was already a huge quarrel in the hall because of the uneven distribution of efforts.
They were all sent letters by Feng Budu himself, so they naturally knew everything about Feng Budu. So when he stood up, everyone fell silent for a moment.
But in the blink of an eye, they started arguing again.
They already knew about the formation and its base.
Since a more solid territory with more abundant spiritual energy is needed, it is understandable that the more powerful a sect is, the greater the pressure it will bear. On the other hand, those with inferior conditions may even have less losses and be the winner after the catastrophe.
As a result, there will naturally be some quarrels.
"Stop arguing!" Qin Baiqing couldn't stand it anymore.
She shouted loudly, and the sound waves with spiritual power instantly shut everyone up and finally made them remember the important things.
"Just listen to what Feng Budu said!"
She glared at the ignorant adults in anger, and then asked Feng Budu in a low voice: "What backup plan did you prepare just now?"
"Nothing, I'm just worried that it would be difficult to negotiate in this situation, so I took the initiative to arrange the layout of the formation for all the clan leaders."
Feng Budu calmly put his hands in his pockets, a kind smile flashed in his eyes, and he said sincerely: "When I sent the letter, the moment you opened the letter, the position of the formation had already been locked. Even if we talk about it now, it won't change anything."
"?"
"You are doing great things quietly!" Qin Baiqing widened her eyes and exclaimed in a low voice.
She was just amazed, but everyone who realized that they were being tricked was already furious.
"You have almost calculated the entire cultivation world, aren't you afraid of us——"
"Master, please be patient," Feng Budu raised his hand slightly, and the invisible force pressed the man down without a doubt, making him unable to move. "A single small world is too fragile, and the merger of worlds is inevitable. The current crisis may not be an opportunity for us."
"Instead of waiting for other small worlds to discover anomalies and passively drag us in, we are now taking the initiative to merge small worlds and making plans for what will happen after the merger in advance. For other small worlds, we are already one step ahead."
He spoke calmly, and finally glanced coldly at the headmaster who jumped out to refute, with a smile not reaching his eyes, "Is that so, headmaster?"
Everyone hesitated and could not refute.
At the same time, he remembered in horror that he had forgotten in his excitement that this person's strength was not inferior to Qin Baiqing...
"No objection, very good." Feng Budu returned to his talkative demeanor, "It seems that everyone is very sensible."
"Then start preparing for the arrangements after the merger."
He brought Qin Baiqing forward and went straight to Ping Haoran, who had remained silent the entire time. The moment he approached, Ping Haoran felt that he had bad intentions.
Before Ping Haoran could speak, Feng Budu suggested, "So I think that since we are in the same small world, we should share weal and woe and be of one mind. Why not form a hundred sects alliance, with Qingyun Sect, the world's number one sect, as the leader?"
"That's too hasty!"
"It's been more than ten years since the last Hundred Sects Competition. How can we generalize? It's impossible..."
"To be fair, we should have another competition. Qingyun Sect's contribution this time is not very significant. It would be unfair to jump to conclusions."
"This covenant is really unnecessary."
"..."
Everyone seemed to be about to start arguing again.
"Do you disagree with the alliance, or do you disagree with Qingyun Sect being the leader?" Feng Budu asked with a raised eyebrow.
He once again made it clear to everyone, "After this merger of small worlds, the strength of the small worlds attracted is still unknown. We should form an alliance first and be prepared to have an advantage."
"An alliance is not impossible." "That's right, we didn't say we were definitely against an alliance," someone said awkwardly, "but the alliance leader is a very important matter, let's discuss it further..."
"I'll tell you the truth," said Beastmaster Zhong Shanqiu, who couldn't help but speak. "The decline of Qingyun Sect in recent years has been seen by everyone. We are not unwilling for Qingyun Sect to be the leader, but if we send a sect that is not strong enough, other small worlds will look down on us in the future.
For our deterrent power, we have to choose a more suitable one!"
What he said hit the nail on the head for most people present.
The fusion of small worlds is an unprecedented event, and it is also a good opportunity to reshuffle the cards. We cannot let the Qingyun Sect get a big advantage for nothing.
After listening to this, Feng Budu chuckled in understanding.
"You mean we need a strong facade? I understand."
He directly pushed Qin Baiqing out and patted her, "The strongest in the small world, everyone should have no objection, Xinghai Sect is also within the scope of this formation, so Xinghai Sect will be the leader."
"hiss……"
"This one……"
Everyone looked at each other, glanced around, and inexplicably felt in their hearts... it seemed to be possible!
He is just a little kid, and the sect he relies on is just a new one. He is easy to control and fool. Now the position of alliance leader is a hot potato and everyone wants it. It may not be a bad idea to temporarily give it to a puppet leader, Xinghai Sect!
"Okay, okay, that's settled! I think it's okay."
Zhong Shanqiu smiled generously and asked his fellow Taoists, "What do you think? I think it's very good."
His call was answered by hundreds of people, and no one objected. Qin Baiqing became the leader with a bewildered look on his face. Everyone congratulated him, "Congratulations, from now on, Sect Master Qin will be the leader of our Hundred Sects Alliance. Sect Master Qin has a bright future!"
"what……?"
"Me?" She pointed at herself and asked Feng Budu quietly, "What do you need to do to be the leader?"
You sound very busy, so I guess I'm not suitable for this job.
"Why don't we let Yukie come?"
"No, you don't have to worry about these things," Feng Budu whispered to her openly, not forgetting to step on everyone, "You just need to endure the tribulation quietly now, and let the old guys quarrel first."
"you……"
"Don't say I'm old," Feng Budu smiled sinisterly. Seeing Qin Baiqing pursing her lips quietly, he continued, "Wait until you succeed in overcoming the tribulation and open the door to the outside world. They will know what to do with the rest."
The two of them were whispering as if no one was around. The other sect leaders were arguing again about what to do next. The hall was in a commotion, but Ping Haoran didn't say a word from beginning to end.
He then belatedly realized something.
The warm jade under his feet seemed to have no effect. Even the spiritual power that was poured into his body was cold. The chill rushed along his spine into Ping Hao's brain, making him feel cold all over.
The Qingyun Sect has been firmly in the number one position for these years and has made friends with almost all the sects in the world.
But those who appeared here today were not all the sect leaders in the small world that they had originally planned.
When Feng Budu took the initiative to deliver the letter, he had actually selected the candidates for drawing the formation from that time on. He called each person precisely and made it impossible for them to refuse... From the very beginning, he had no intention of peaceful negotiation, and the group he called was just for a formal Hongmen Banquet.
Before they came, Feng Budu had already targeted them, just like a formation locking onto its base.
Ping Haoran was the first to realize this. When he looked at Feng Budu again, he felt horrified. Even the way he spoke gently to Qin Baiqing seemed to be shrouded in a layer of gloom...
"gone."
The two finished their conversation, and Feng Budu pushed Qin Baiqing out, "You should go into seclusion and prepare for the tribulation."
