Chapter 314: Chapter 193: Publicity Genius Elder Yuan “You’re really onto something with this approach!” “These disciples are like they’ve taken a tonic!” Master Zheng, the Supreme Elder, was leaning against the door, looking at the bustling crowd inside the Hall of Heroes, and said with some surprise as he saw the yearning expressions on the disciples’ faces: “I was going to give you a hand, but I didn’t expect you to be so good at being the Sect Leader!” They were in the main hall on Heavenly Palace Island at that moment. By now, this place had become the Jiushan Sect’s high-level office space. First, this place was the transportation hub for the Heavenly Palace Nine Islands, convenient for coming and going. Second, the space was ample. Hearing the Sect Leader’s words, Sister Zhang and Jiushan Ancestor next to him also looked towards Zheng Fa. Sister Zhang said: “It’s indeed different now, these disciples look more spirited, especially those with lesser aptitude.” Master Pang shook his head: “Thinking from their perspective, it’s normal. Who was Li Nuo? He was disliked by everyone in Jiushan Sect before, and his aptitude wasn’t great either.” “Those from Qianhe Sect are even people who joined Jiushan Sect halfway through without any foundation in the sect, at most in the Foundation Establishment Stage.” “Now that these people are named in the Hall of Heroes, naturally those disciples without background and low aptitude see hope.” “These two choices, Sect Leader, are excellent.” With that said, even Sister Zhang nodded slightly. The look in her eyes towards Zheng Fa was even more surprised— as if she had not thought of this before and was a little astounded by Zheng Fa’s strategic depth. Zheng Fa was also surprised... He picked these two because they truly were of the greatest help to Jiushan Sect now. Talisman sales weren’t just about making money; if it weren’t for talismans, they might not have been able to withstand the Great Freedom Demon Sect, as talismans could be said to have saved the lives of everyone in Jiushan Sect. Qianhe Valley’s produce has also almost become something consumed by every Jiushan disciple—this thing requires little in terms of good deeds, but it helps a lot with the cultivation of the Thunder Dao Dharma Body. It’s exceptionally suitable for the Jiushan Realm. He honestly said: “It was just a fluke, actually... I really can’t be the Sect Leader. So I still need the help of my sister and junior master.” In front of him lay a desk, piled high with jade tubes and documents. Since taking over as Sect Leader, his workload had increased— Internal matters of Jiushan Sect. Affairs of Paradise Island. And worries of the mortal realm. Now that the Heavenly Palace Nine Islands were just getting started, big and small matters all depended on Zheng Fa’s decisions. However, Xiaoqing and others in the mortal world didn’t have any major issues for now—they were just starting out, so during this time, all they needed to do was farm diligently and study well. But Zheng Fa couldn’t completely let go either; from time to time, he still needed to check in. It could be said that he was probably the busiest Sect Leader since the founding of Jiushan Sect. Sister Zhang and Master Pang beside him were likewise busy; lately, they had also been helping Zheng Fa deal with various matters in the Jiushan Realm. “That’s still better than some Sect Leaders who do nothing at all!” Master Pang glanced sideways at Elder Yuan. The old man seemed like he was just here for fun, strolling around the room with his hands behind his back, and when the three were working, he liked to peek his head over to look. They were busy enough as it was. And then there was this idler parading around smugly in front of them. Who could stand that? Zheng Fa couldn’t! “Master, didn’t you say you wanted to undergo Divinity Transformation?” “No rush! There are some barriers, I need to contemplate further!” Elder Yuan waved his hand, saying to them: “Ahh? Don’t mind me! You’re busy! I love watching you all busy!” “...” Zheng Fa and Sister Zhang exchanged glances and nodded to each other. “Master, I’m considering establishing the position of Supreme Elder...” “Cough! I suddenly have an insight, I’m going into seclusion...” Elder Yuan started to walk away. “Master, there’s only you who can help me with this...” “I won’t help!” “Cough, I’m the Sect Leader!” “...” Elder Yuan was stunned, staring blankly at Zheng Fa. He then saw Sister Zhang and Master Pang block the door behind him. It was clear the three had discussed it beforehand. “...Junior brother?” He turned to look at Master Pang, who gave him a brilliant smile: “Senior brother, I always respect the Sect Leader’s orders.” “...” Elder Yuan crouched in front of Zheng Fa’s desk, muttering about how people turn cold once you’re gone, face-changing, defying the Heavenly Gang, and other such complaints. Zheng Fa didn’t mean to trap him... Mainly because the old man seemed to fear some issues with undergoing Divinity Transformation and was hesitant about seclusion, looking like he really had nothing else to do for the time being. Moreover, Zheng Fa did have a big job for him. Zheng Fa pulled a few Communication Talismans from the short table. Some were sent by Seventh Young Master from the Hundred Immortals Alliance. Others were sent by Yan Wushuang through Elder Han. Seventh Young Master seems to be highly regarded in the Hundred Immortals Alliance; he also obtained quite a bit of information, of course, he only dared to share some not-so-secretive matters. But that was enough for Zheng Fa to deepen his understanding of the conflict between the Hundred Immortals Alliance and the Great Freedom Demon Sect. Yan Wushuang’s letters had an even wider perspective. For instance, he mentioned that there seemed to be an elder Daoist from the previous generation of the Supreme Dao who had come out of seclusion, probably to deal with the Great Freedom Demon Sect. There was also news of recent movements of the other major sects. Zheng Fa handed these few not-so-secretive communication talismans to Elder Yuan. “Master, Uncle Pang and Junior Master Huang will be the future Supreme Elders of our Jiushan Sect.” Seeing him so solemn and serious. Elder Yuan also nodded, no longer joking and laughing. “What is this?” Elder Yuan fluttered the Communication Talismans in his hand and asked. However, Zheng Fa spoke to Uncle Pang first: “Uncle Pang, you will be responsible for the laboratory in the future, do you have any objections?” Zheng Fa favored him for simple reasons. Firstly, his Void Spirit Eye was suitable for experimentation. Secondly, he was also adept at surveillance. The laboratory was the most valued place by Zheng Fa in the Jiushan Realm; it needed Uncle Pang and others to watch over it and help maintain its secrecy. Uncle Pang was startled and nodded, asking, “What about the Law Enforcement Pavilion then?” “Junior Master Huang.” Uncle Pang was startled again, realizing that this person was indeed more suitable than himself—none but Zhang Wuyi had the face to refuse this woman. “Then what about your Master?” Elder Yuan frantically waved his hands: “I’m not good at anything!” “Master, I have a propaganda department here that needs to be under your charge.” “Propaganda?” “Yes.” Zheng Fa said softly, “The transformation of customs in the Jiushan Realm still requires our guidance. These non-secretive intelligence reports can be known to the disciples of the sect and even the commoners.” “Do you mean... Lu’s World’s techniques?” Elder Yuan looked at the Communication Talismans in his hands, somewhat enlightened. “Yes.” “How should it be done?” “Every ten days or every month, publish a piece of news.” “News? Can you explain in detail?” Elder Yuan was curious, as he was fond of playing with the techniques of Lu’s World and now found Zheng Fa’s idea quite interesting. “The first part is to talk about some changes within our Jiushan Realm.” “Such as what we’re going to do, and what new rules there are.” Elder Yuan nodded, laughing: “That’s quite interesting; this can reduce many misunderstandings.” Zheng Fa was a little surprised. His Master was very astute! The greatest benefit of this, as he said, was to reduce many misinterpretations among the lower-ranked disciples. “Then there’s talking about the emergence of new things, like the events in the Qianhe Valley.” “Oh, continue to promote Master Qian and their reputation.” Elder Yuan seemed to grasp the meaning of the word ‘propaganda.’ “The third part is about what’s on these.” Zheng Fa pointed to the Communication Talismans in front of him. “Do you mean, letting everyone know what’s happening outside?” “Right, what Zhao Jingfan has passed on is the current local situation, more detailed and more relevant to us.” “Yan Wushuang speaks of major events in the Xuanwei Realm.” “Combining the two will let the people of Jiushan have a better understanding of the Xuanwei Realm.” Although they secluded themselves in the Jiushan Realm, Zheng Fa had no intention of being isolationist. Nor did he want the people of the Jiushan Realm to be ignorant of the outside world. That would benefit neither the Jiushan Sect nor these Jiushan Disciples. “For now, Master, you’re in charge of this matter. In the future, when we train other disciples skilled in talisman formation techniques, they can take over this task.” Elder Yuan flipped through those Communication Talismans, appearing to have gleaned insight, he nodded repeatedly, not declining the task anymore. “Master, do you want me to make one first for you to see?” Instead, it was Zheng Fa who was not quite reassured. Who would have thought Elder Yuan would gesture dismissively, looking at him with a who-do-you-think-you’re-underestimating gaze. “I understand!” “Ah?” “Master Zheng’s vision is far-reaching, and the Jiushan Sect is thriving. The Xuanwei Realm is wrought with the flames of war; all Immortal Sects are in deep distress!” ... Hold on, you really understand! You’re in the wrong profession!
