Chapter 63: Gentle Poison is Immortal
The emperor said in a deep voice, "But all of this requires time and strategy. We cannot act blindly, and we must not ruin the future of the Tianhun Royal Family because of a momentary impulse."
In the following days, the Tianhun royal family began a series of secret and cautious actions.
On the one hand, they strengthened the vigilance inside and outside the imperial city to prevent any potential threats; on the other hand, they secretly sent envoys to seek methods and resources that could enhance the power of the royal family.
Of course, the main thing is to find a way to reduce the losses caused by the destruction of the Tianhun Chamber of Commerce.
After all, if such a lucrative channel were to be given up, even Emperor Tianhun himself would not agree, let alone those corrupt officials.
But the good thing is that, taking advantage of this incident, Emperor Tianhun once again killed several leading corrupt officials, completely severed the relationship with the Tianhun Chamber of Commerce, and also confiscated many properties and imposed heavy fines.
At the same time, they also began to reform the internal mechanism to improve the training efficiency and combat capabilities of the royal family members, in the hope that one day in the future, they would be able to truly stand on the stage to dialogue with powerful people such as the Body Sect.
All these changes happened quietly in every corner of Tianhun City. As time went by, people began to feel the new atmosphere brought by the Tianhun Royal Family, and the long-lost peace and stability returned to the city.
Deep in the endless, misty mountains of the Body Sect, the Body Sect, a sect that has been passed down from generation to generation and prides itself on cultivating the Body Martial Soul, is immersed in a tranquil and solemn atmosphere.
The sunlight shines through the dense tree canopy, dappling onto the stone steps. Each step seems to carry the weight of history and expectations for the future.
Du Bu Si was scolding Lang Ya with a depressed look on his face, but although it was called a scolding, his tone was actually much gentler.
Wang Teng had not been in the Benti Sect for long and might not have any idea of this tone, but Lang Ya knew that the Sect Master was being so gentle because of his junior brother.
I don’t know what kind of magic potion the junior brother gave to the sect leader, why he actually loves this junior brother so much!
But thanks to Wang Teng, Lang Ya hasn't felt this kind of tenderness from the sect leader for a long time.
Even if a Titled Douluo made a mistake, Du Bu Si would scold him mercilessly, and no one dared to refute him.
At this moment, in an ancient meeting hall deep in the sect, the atmosphere was slightly subtle.
Du Bu Si, the current leader of the Body Sect, a Titled Douluo famous for his poison-type body martial soul and unfathomable strength, was standing in the center of the hall, facing his disciple Lang Ya.
There was both reproach and a hint of imperceptible tenderness in his eyes.
"Langya, Langya, what can I say about you?"
Du Bu Si's voice was low and powerful, and every word was like a heavy hammer, striking Lang Ya's heart. But if one listened carefully, the rebuke lacked the severity and sharpness of the past.
"As a sect elder, you should set an example, but you repeatedly make such low-level mistakes. How can I explain this to the sect?
You brought your junior brother with you, but instead of fulfilling your duty to protect him, you almost put all of you in danger!
You are almost a Title Douluo, but you are still so unstable. "
Lang Ya lowered his head, clenched his hands into fists, his nails almost digging into his palms, and his face was full of regret.
He knew very well that his recent behavior had indeed been negligent. Not only had he failed to manage the sect's affairs effectively, but he had also allowed his personal emotions to affect his judgment, leading to several unnecessary disputes.
The most important thing is that I did not protect my fellow apprentice well.
Later, he also relied on some of Su Mu's power.
But at this moment, he felt more complicated emotions towards the sect master's "gentleness".
"Master, I know I was wrong."
Lang Ya's voice was low and firm. He looked up at Du Bu Si, his eyes flashing with determination and gratitude, "It was my negligence that caused trouble for the sect.
But please believe me, Master, I will learn from my mistakes, mend my ways, and never make the same mistake again.
Next time Junior Brother wants to go out, I will definitely find a Titled Douluo Elder to accompany him, and I will never be too arrogant! "
Du Bu Si's expression eased slightly when he heard this, and a trace of relief flashed in his eyes. "Lang Ya, you have followed me for many years, and I naturally know your character.
The reason why I am so tolerant of you this time is not entirely because of Brother Wang Teng, but more importantly, I saw your inner struggle and remorse. "
He walked slowly to Langya and patted him gently on the shoulder.
“Remember, as an elder of the Body Sect, every decision and every action you make affects the honor, disgrace, prosperity and decline of the sect.
The road ahead is still long, and I hope you can become the backbone of the sect, rather than a burden."
Having said that, Du Bu Si changed the subject and talked about Wang Teng.
“Speaking of Junior Brother Wang Teng, his arrival has indeed brought a lot of changes to the sect.
I am deeply pleased with his talent, his tenacity, and his unique insights into his own martial spirit.
But more importantly, he taught us a truth - no matter what our background is, as long as we have the sect in our hearts and the courage to explore, we can create our own glory.
You may all be a little dissatisfied with him, but in fact, I treat Long Aotian the same way to him, including you.
Langya, our Body Sect respects strength as the most important thing, but now I find that the Body Sect also needs enough wisdom to face the changes in the future.
That's why I gave your junior brother so much authority, letting him do whatever he wants.
Try harder while the situation is not too bad. It's good enough that he has an old guy like me to back him up.
You are the future of the Body Sect."
When Lang Ya heard this, his heart moved, and he couldn't help but recall every moment he spent with Wang Teng.
The boy who always has a smile on his face and never gives up in the face of difficulties seems to have a magical power that can infect everyone around him.
He began to silently compare himself with Wang Teng in his mind, realizing that he still had a lot to learn and improve.
"Master, I understand."
Langya's voice became more determined.
“I will take Junior Brother Wang Teng as an example, not only in terms of cultivation, but also in terms of character and sense of responsibility.
I vow to become a solid force in the sect and contribute my own strength to its prosperity."
Du Bu Si nodded with satisfaction. He knew that these words were not empty talk. Lang Ya was a man with real determination and action.
"Okay, I look forward to your growth and transformation. Remember, the future of the Body Sect requires the joint efforts of your generation."
Afterwards, the two had an in-depth discussion on the sect's recent affairs, from the allocation of cultivation resources, to the training of young disciples, to exchanges and cooperation with other sects.
Every topic revealed Du Bu Si's foresight and deep concern for the future of the sect.
Lang Ya also benefited a lot from this conversation. He seemed to have seen the direction of his future and became more determined to fight for the sect.
