Chapter 113 Little Jin the Butler is very annoyed
Three-quarters of an hour later, Wang Yan, who was pretending to write the character "神" (divine) in the next room, suddenly saw a prompt from the system: Ning Yun Mo Jingqing, an inner disciple of the Yunding Sect, had exchanged for a certain piece of divine script.
Almost every divine inscription that Wang Yan had applied for had been exchanged by this Senior Brother Mo, who had just emerged from seclusion.
"It seems he knows I exist! Is his support for me a way of trying to understand me?"
Wang Yan was quite curious.
A middle-aged man nearing forty should be quite mature, unlike Zhao Mingtong who is so naive and wears his heart on his sleeve.
Half an hour later, Wang Yan "successfully" wrote several third-order divine characters, including the divine character for "medicine," when he heard someone gently knocking on the door.
"Please come in!"
With a creak, the door opened, and Deacon Xiao Jin walked in with a strange expression: "Wang Yan, are you still writing the character 'God'?"
"Write as much as you can, so you can access it when needed later." Wang Yan wiped the sweat from his brow, put down the specially made stone nail in his hand, and calmly asked Deacon Xiao Jin, "Why are you back? On your day off?"
Deacon Jin remained silent for a moment, then asked somewhat absentmindedly, "You know about Junior Nephew Mo's emergence from seclusion, right?"
"I heard it from Grandmaster Qin." Wang Yan's gaze shifted, and he deliberately asked, "Judging from your appearance, he has successfully entered the Cloud Condensation Realm?"
"Yes." Deacon Xiao Jin sighed softly, a strange trouble on his handsome face. He sat down at the table next to Wang Yan. "The Peak Master said that after the great battle, he will summon all the Peak Masters and Elders to nominate Junior Nephew Mo as the core scholar."
"Of course." Wang Yan nodded calmly, then looked at him knowingly for a while. Seeing the resentment, unwillingness, and frustration on his face, he asked, "Uncle Jin, is it because this Senior Brother Mo has grievances against Ancestor Qin after learning that the Sect Master was forced into seclusion?"
Deacon Xiao Jin remained silent for a while, a hint of dissatisfaction in his eyes and annoyance in his voice: "I wasn't there when the Peak Master brought him out of seclusion, so I don't know what they talked about. But he's now taking Senior Brother Fang's place in the Nebula Formation, so Senior Brother Fang has taken my place."
"Huh?" Wang Yan was shocked. "Uncle Fang is the master controller of the formation, right?"
Deacon Xiao Jin's voice was very soft: "The core member's status is slightly higher than Senior Brother Fang's, so it's impossible for him to listen to Uncle Fang at such a crucial moment. Moreover, it was Uncle Fang who voluntarily relinquished his position."
But Wang Yan clearly sensed more resentment in his voice.
Wang Yan quickly changed his mind and said calmly, "Uncle Fang has never been greedy for power."
A man who can achieve success in hidden divine script must regard power and influence as fleeting clouds.
Deacon Xiao Jin remained silent for a moment before saying in a low voice, "A second-class sect must have enough late-stage Solidifying Realm experts. Originally, we had one more, but after the battle at Flying Eagle Mountain, two of our grandmasters perished. We must replace them with another one within two years. Otherwise, the three first-class sects will send people to lower our sect's level and take over a portion of our assets."
"The sect leader is currently the most likely person to break through to the late stage of the Solidifying Yuan Realm, so he has to go into seclusion. The grandmaster was forced to use this method. Mo Jingqing couldn't possibly be unaware of our sect's current predicament, yet he still did it..."
At this point, Deacon Jin's eyes and voice revealed a hint of frustration and disappointment: "Too fast."
Yes, that's too fast!
Seeing the dejected Deacon Jin, Wang Yan sighed softly, stood up, found a teacup, used divine runes to condense a cup of warm water, and handed it over.
Deacon Xiao Jin stared blankly at the teacup for a few moments, then silently took it and subconsciously brought it to his lips, taking a few sips. His pupils remained unfocused.
Wang Yan knew that he was still very upset, so she said softly, "Uncle Fang voluntarily relinquished power, and Grandmaster Qin did not object. This should be a kind of compensation for Senior Brother Mo."
"Grandmaster Qin has no interest in power. This time, he only accepted the sect leader's request to go into seclusion for the sake of the sect's future. At this time, Senior Brother Mo should be helping Grandmaster Qin manage sect affairs, but instead, he seized control of the Nebula Array to declare his identity as a core member. Grandmaster Qin must be unhappy about this."
There is definitely a difference between someone with the Solid Foundation Realm cultivation level presiding over a grand formation and someone with the Condensing Cloud Realm cultivation level presiding over a grand formation.
This difference could easily be exploited by enemies skilled in formations.
Wang Yan secretly lowered his rating of this senior brother Mo Jingqing.
Butler Jin unexpectedly raised his eyes slowly, his focus gradually returning, and his eyes shone with a light of understanding and recognition.
Then, Deacon Xiao Jin smirked, holding his teacup, and said with a hint of mockery, "Nephew Mo is also proficient in formations, but he is no match for Senior Brother Fang."
Wang Yan nodded knowingly: "Since Senior Brother Mo has been carefully nurtured by the sect leader since childhood, he must understand formations."
At this point, Wang Yan sighed softly again: "You can also think more optimistically. For example, Uncle Fang might be tired, or perhaps he doesn't want to cause trouble for Grandmaster Qin, so he took the initiative to let... Senior Brother Mo, do you know that the envoy from the Biqing Sect will be arriving in five days?"
"It was precisely because I knew this that I decided to stand up for Senior Brother Fang." Deacon Xiao Jin sighed deeply, put his teacup aside, and said with even more resentment in his tone, "He will accompany Master Qin to receive them as a core member of the Wenzi."
Wang Yan then rationally analyzed, "It seems that Master Qin decided to take the risk and let Senior Brother Mo familiarize himself with the formation because of this point... Senior Brother Mo should have been in the Nebula Formation before, but not in a presiding position?"
Deacon Xiao Jin scoffed dismissively, "That was over twenty years ago. He was only at the Profound Breakthrough Realm back then."
That's it!
Wang Yan calmly offered his advice.
"Uncle Jin, there's no need to be so angry. Grandmaster Qin and Uncle Fang did this to appease Senior Brother Mo, so that when the envoy from Biqing Sect arrives, Senior Brother Mo can come forward to receive him."
The fact that Yunding Sect performed so brilliantly in defense against the combined attack of the three sects means that they must have had a truly outstanding genius in their ranks.
Fang Heyun, Zhou Yaowen, Du Long, and even the young butler Jin in front of them are all outstanding, but they are all over a hundred years old.
Mo Jingqing, who has just emerged from seclusion, has high potential, is talented in literature, and comes from a respectable background, making him a good target.
It's better to put Mo Jingqing on top than to let the envoy from the Biqing Sect see Wang Yan.
Otherwise, if the Biqing Sect knew that these new divine scripts were all created by Wang Yan... he would either die, or be forcibly taken away by the Biqing Sect.
Wang Yan didn't want to face such a situation.
I believe Qin Bilian and Fang Heyun didn't want this either.
"Perhaps, Grandmaster Qin still intends to let Senior Brother Mo take the spot? ...Well, since the Biqing Sect should know about Mo Jingqing's aptitude... Oh well, let's not worry about him for now. Anyway, I don't need to attract attention for the time being."
Wang Yan really just wants to focus on his research right now and doesn't want to stand out in this public spotlight.
Meanwhile, Master Qin used a Nebula Array to take control, temporarily restraining Mo Jingqing and making it easier for him to develop in a safe manner.
