Comprehension Ability: Creating and teaching the Dao in various worlds

Chapter 256: Chapter 10: Assassination, Strike (Subscription Requested)



Discussing aptitude,

it was definitely Jun Dongjin who had the advantage.

With a mutated Heavenly Spiritual Root talent, he could easily make it into the top fifty in the history of the Daode Immortal Sect, spanning hundreds of thousands of years.

And Jun Dongjin was a steady person, should he manage to step into the Refining Void Period,

continuing to maintain the Daode Immortal Sect's dominant position in the Central Divine Continent wouldn't be difficult.

However...

Jun Dongjin was, after all, an outsider.

Even if he married a female cultivator from the Mu Family,

he was still an outsider.

If Jun Dongjin became the future Sect Master of the Daode Immortal Sect,

he certainly wouldn't allow the Mu Family to continue holding sole power, no matter the reasoning,

he would suppress the Mu Family.

That was the instinct of those in power.

On the contrary,

if Mu Mengting became the next Sect Master of the Daode Immortal Sect,

such an event wouldn't occur, after all, Mu Mengting was a cultivator from the Mu Family.

Mu Qingliu's expression was calm; at his level, whoever became the next Immortal Sect Leader wouldn't make much difference to him.

The most important thing was,

how to maintain the interests of the Mu Family.

Moreover,

Mu Mengting was only inferior to Jun Dongjin.

When compared to other members of the Daode Immortal Sect, Mu Mengting was already at the peak.

With the accumulated heritage of the Daode Immortal Sect over hundreds of thousands of years, there would be no problem for Mu Mengting to assume the position of Sect Master.

"Dongjin, don't blame me,"

"Blame it on the fact that you are not from the Mu Family,"

Mu Qingliu thought to himself.

In fact, if there were a few more decades or centuries,

and if Jun Dongjin were to reach the Refining Void before Mu Mengting,

Mu Qingliu would indeed consider cultivating Jun Dongjin as the Immortal Sect's next generation leader.

Unfortunately, time waits for no one.

With both of their progress being similar,

Mu Qingliu naturally considered his own family first.

...

Since he decided to cultivate Mu Mengting with all his effort, Mu Qingliu naturally began to suppress Jun Dongjin.

Otherwise, if Jun Dongjin saw that Mu Mengting was trying to reach the Refining Void Period with the full support of the sect, he would inevitably become mentally unstable.

At that time, no matter what actions he took, it would be a loss for the sect.

Thus,

Mu Qingliu decided to transfer Jun Dongjin out of the Daode Immortal Sect ahead of time.

"With Dongjin's talent, even without the help of the sect, he is still expected to step into the semi-Ancient Saint level in the future,"

"I'll be the villain and take the initiative to transfer Dongjin's family away,"

"Later on, when Mengting becomes the Sect Master, we can bring Dongjin back and entrust him with important duties again to win his loyalty,"

Mu Qingliu thought in his heart.

In the world of Immortal Tao, individuals wield great power, but controlling a force is not just about having strength.

Especially in the Daode Immortal Sect, with the looming threats of the Nether Palace, Demon Saint's Nest, and Blood Demon Sea, a Sect Master at the Ancient Saint level needs to be constantly stationed on Mount Morality Immortal.

At such times, managing the entire Central Divine Continent depends on whether the subordinates are up to the task.

And in Mu Qingliu's view, Jun Dongjin was clearly a very qualified subordinate.

Even if he couldn't become the Immortal Sect Leader, serving as an elder in charge could save the Sect Master a lot of trouble.

...

Mount Morality Immortal.

Jun Dongjin, Mu Lian'er, Jun Xiaoyao, and Jun Zhilan, a family of four, sat with furrowed brows.

"What does grandfather mean by sending our whole family to Vast Cliff Mountain? That place is remote, and it doesn't have any important resources; is there a need for all four of us to go?"

Jun Zhilan was somewhat dissatisfied.

She had been living comfortably on Mount Morality Immortal, where the spiritual energy was abundant and the cultivation environment was suitable. As for Vast Cliff Mountain? Although it was still within the Central Divine Continent, it naturally fell short compared to Mount Morality Immortal.

"The Sect Master must have his considerations,"

"Perhaps Vast Cliff Mountain has some important resource that we don't know about?"

Jun Xiaoyao always thought about issues from the Sect Master's perspective.

"I'll go ask father what exactly is going on,"

Mu Lian'er stood up, planning to see Mu Qingliu.

She couldn't understand why, out of the blue, her father suddenly issued such an order to their family?

In recent years, Jun Dongjin had carried out the tasks assigned by the Sect Master quite well, without a single mistake, and there was no need for such orders.

"Lian'er,"

Jun Dongjin hurriedly stopped Mu Lian'er.

"Since the Sect Master has issued the sect order for this matter, it is already set in stone; if you go, you would make the Sect Master uncomfortable,"

Jun Dongjin shook his head and said, "It's just as well, I've been busy with various sect affairs in recent decades; now that I have some free time, it's a good opportunity to rest,"

"I've heard that Vast Cliff Mountain is surrounded by a large number of mortal kingdoms; I'll take you all to have a good look around when we get there,"

"Dad, you're really optimistic…" Jun Zhilan rolled her eyes.

But there was something Jun Dongjin said that was correct.

About their family's relocation, it was made via an official sect order by the Sect Master.

There was no longer any room for changes or turning back.

Even if they were reluctant, they had no choice but to follow the order,

otherwise, it would be tantamount to betrayal of the Immortal Sect.

"Perhaps father just wants to temper your temperaments, and he will call you back soon," Mu Lian'er consoled.

...

Mount Morality Immortal.

At the Mu Family Peak,

Mu Mengting and a few trusted subordinates arrived at a secret chamber at the top of the mountain.

This was one of the few places in the Central Divine Continent unaffected by the surveillance of the Taihao Immortal Mirror.

"Mengting brother, have you heard? That Jun Dongjin is going to be transferred out, and his whole family is going to Vast Cliff Mountain to take charge,"

a round-faced man spoke in a low voice, his tone betraying a sense of pleasure.

Over the years, Mu Mengting and Jun Dongjin had fought openly and covertly countless times for the position of Sect Master.

With Jun Dongjin being a Mutated Heavenly Spiritual Root, he was quite well-liked within the sect and valued by those Supreme Elders.

Thus, even with the backing of the Mu Family, Mu Mengting often found himself at a disadvantage.

His subordinates felt the pinch even more than Mu Mengting himself did.

Now, hearing that Jun Dongjin's family was about to be transferred, their pleasure was easy to imagine.
