Simulation: My family's financial situation is infinitely improved

Chapter 32 [There is no reason to guard against thieves for a thousand days]

"The prevailing trend in Lanzhou today is the three martial arts holy places of Cloud Sword Palace, Sky Star Valley, and Frost City, which are in a three-way competition. The three cooperate with each other to suppress the evil demons and heretics in various places and maintain the overall stability of society, but they also compete with each other."

"But because of Heng'er's appearance, our Cloud Sword Palace now has a huge advantage. In the less than a year since Heng'er achieved Grandmaster status, many neutral forces have joined us, allowing us to grow and develop significantly."

"The role of a peerless genius is so significant. If a genius like Heng'er appeared in Tianxing Valley or Bingshuang City, and we in Yunjian Palace didn't have one, I would probably find a way to do something in secret to target them."

Xiao Rang explained his guess as to why Tianxing Valley and Frost City took action.

After a pause, Xiao Rang continued, "Assuming that Tianxing Valley and Bingshuang City are the masterminds, they are using this series of actions to transfer some of our Cloud Sword Palace experts. Perhaps other chaos will arise next, using this as an opportunity to transfer more experts."

"When the number of masters guarding the mountain gate drops to a critical value, they will choose an appropriate time to raid the mountain gate of Yunjian Palace and kill Heng'er."

"With the smallest possible cost, destroy the future of my Cloud Sword Palace. If the operation goes smoothly, it wouldn't be a bad idea to destroy the main gate of my Cloud Sword Palace as well."

After hearing Xiao Rang's guess, the other elders were all thoughtful.

"Are you targeting the Young Master?"

Assuming that Xiao Rang's guess is true, then everything makes sense.

"Aren't Sky Star Valley and Frost City afraid of revenge from my Cloud Sword Palace in the future by acting this way?"

Zhang Ya was a little puzzled.

"Not afraid."

Xiao Rang knew Zhang Ya wasn't good at these kinds of intrigues, so he explained, "Our three martial arts sacred places rose to prominence in Lanzhou around the same time. Since our bases are far apart and there's no conflict of interest, we formed an alliance and developed independently."

"Now, more than five hundred years have passed, and we have all become the undisputed overlords of our respective regions. However, Lanzhou is limited in size. If we want to continue to develop our sect to a higher level, we will undoubtedly have to defeat and annex our allies."

"In the past, the three of us kept each other in check. If one of us tried to take over another, the other two would form an alliance to fight back."

"But now, Heng'er's appearance has broken this balance, giving Tianxing Valley and Frost City a reason to join forces. They can't let Heng'er become a master of the heavenly realm."

"Their first goal in this surprise attack is to kill Heng'er. If they succeed, we three families can maintain a balance of power. If they are extremely successful, they can also kill all the masters of my Cloud Sword Palace and divide the world into two."

"If they fail, and Heng'er becomes a celestial master, it will be our turn at the Cloud Sword Palace to do this."

"According to my original plan, I was going to use Heng'er's legendary strength to collect taxes from Frost City and Tianxing Valley. At the same time, I was going to use Heng'er's reputation as the world's most invincible to attract all the geniuses in Lanzhou. This would weaken their development in both directions and strengthen our own strength."

"As one grows stronger, the other declines. Eventually, we will become the most powerful in the world, while their heritage will gradually weaken and eventually disappear."

"Since we're going to face each other sooner or later, why would you be afraid of offending us?"

Zhang Ya nodded in understanding after hearing this, without any further questions.

The expressions of the other elders also turned serious, knowing that the Yunjian Palace had reached a very critical moment.

"Since we already know there's a hidden hand behind this, let's temporarily ignore the disturbances outside. We should even concentrate our efforts on guarding the mountain gate, endure the pain for this period of time, and wait for Heng'er to fully grow up. Everything will be solved."

Law enforcement elder Li Yan suggested.

Although doing so would be somewhat like allowing evil spirits to harm innocent people, the sect would also lose a lot of benefits.

However, if you want to do great things, you must first ensure your own survival. Only when you are safe and have enough to spare can you spare the energy to care for others. If caring for others puts you in danger, you can rely on luck once or twice to get through it, but what will happen in the future?
A good person can only benefit more people if he lives longer without harming others.

"There's no such thing as guarding against thieves for a thousand days."

Xiao Rang shook his head, disagreeing with Li Yan's proposal.

He thought for a moment and said, "Perhaps, letting Heng'er go out to avoid disaster is the best solution."

If Lin Heng continues to stay in the sect, he will inevitably provoke a powerful enemy. Even if he wins, the strength of the Yunjian Palace will be greatly damaged, which will not be conducive to becoming the strongest in Lanzhou in the future.

If they fail to win and Lin Heng dies, it will ruin the future of Yunjian Palace.

In this case, it is better to avoid it.

With the strength of Grandmaster Lin Heng, Xiao Rang only needed to keep an eye on the many elders in the sect for a quarter of an hour, which was enough to make Lin Heng disappear without a trace. Even masters of the same level who were proficient in tracking would be unable to track his whereabouts.

Anyway, Lin Heng has already read all the martial arts recorded in the Yunjian Palace, so it doesn’t make much difference whether he stays in the sect to practice or not.

Just go out and practice incognito for a period of time, and then come back when you reach the realm of the supreme grandmaster.

Tianxing Valley and Frost City may still be thinking of giving it a try at this moment, but once Lin Heng becomes the supreme grandmaster, everything will be settled.

Even if Tianxing Valley and Bingshuang City have more ideas, if they don't want to be subjected to the Nine Clans Separation Technique by the strongest, they can only bow their heads and allow Yunjian Palace to suck their blood and become the strongest in Lanzhou.

"Everything is just speculation at this point. What if these evil heretics are just clowns? And we let the Young Master go out? He gets hit and attacked, and then he's isolated and helpless. Wouldn't that be exactly what the enemy wants?"

Wei Xuan disagreed.

"Heng'er has a calm personality. If you give him careful instructions, he won't be like this."

"Besides, if you want to become a master of heaven and earth, you can't just stay at home and study. Reading thousands of books and traveling thousands of miles is not a bad thing."

Xiao Rang knew his apprentice's character very well and insisted on his own opinion.

If the disciples of the Yunjian Palace do not want to stay in the mountain gate to practice in seclusion, they can reach the innate realm and pass the sect's examination on the common sense of traveling in the world, then they can go out of the mountain and travel the world.

If Lin Heng was not his disciple, when he achieved innateness at the age of seven, he would have been qualified to go out and walk down the mountain in terms of knowledge and martial arts.

Now, Lin Heng has grown up a lot, has more knowledge reserves, and has already reached the level of a grandmaster. There will definitely be no problem for him to travel the world alone.

"Why not ask the Young Master for his own opinion?"

Zhang Ya suggested from the side.

They have been discussing here for a long time. What if Lin Heng has his own ideas?
Although Lin Heng is still young, he is already a grandmaster after all, and no one can ignore his opinions.

"Alright."

Xiao Rang agreed.

Afterwards, the meeting that would decide the future was suspended, and Xiao Rang went underground to meet Lin Heng, who was in seclusion there, and asked for his opinion.
