88: Tianyan Sect, here we are!

Qing Yuzi suddenly opened his eyes, revealing the exact same moral gaze as Chen De.

Chen De knew this was because the other party had been morally enlightened by him.

Due to the terrifying regenerative power of the black liquid, all of Qing Yuzi's external injuries were quickly healed.

He stood up and walked a few steps, looking exactly as he did before he was injured.

After all this, Chen De had Qing Yuzi summon his demonic beast mount.

Since Qing Yuzi was caught off guard and ambushed by Chen De, he was directly knocked to the ground.

Chen De had also deliberately avoided targeting the four demonic beast mounts, so all four of them were perfectly preserved.

At this moment, the four demonic beast mounts were obediently waiting above, maintaining their original posture, as if nothing had happened.

Then Chen De walked over and also enlightened the demonic beast mounts.

Anyone or any demon beast who witnessed all of this today could only be Chen De's.

The demonic beast mounts' cultivation was much lower than Chen De's, and the enlightenment was completed in the blink of an eye.

Next, Chen De had Qing Yuzi continue to lead the way, heading towards the Sect.

Chen De also sat on a demonic beast mount, digesting the newly acquired information.

Viewing the Sect from the perspective of a Sect Elder is, after all, different from viewing it from the perspective of a Disciple.

Chen De's current trip to the Sect, besides propagating truth, goodness, and beauty, and Chen De's supreme moral theory, and enlightening as many people as possible,

also involved collecting a small, insignificant fee.

After all, good people shouldn't return empty-handed, shedding both blood and tears.

To achieve all of this, a reasonable plan was necessary.

...

Tianyan Sect, one of the top powers in Qingyun Prefecture.

Within its Sect, there was a Supreme Elder, a Void Union Realm martial artist, who was at the fifth stage of martial arts, overseeing it.

Below him was Tian Chenyang, the Sect Master of Tianyan Sect, also in the Void Union Realm, and the second most powerful expert in Tianyan Sect.

Tianyan Sect is divided into Inner Sect and Outer Sect, with Outer Sect Elders in the Spirit Opening Realm responsible for its management.

Most of these positions are held by Inner Sect Disciples who have reached a certain age but have not yet cultivated to the Myriad Transformation Realm.

The Inner Sect is managed by Inner Sect Elders in the Myriad Transformation Realm; these individuals hold the true core power of Tianyan Sect.

Of course, it's not to say that there are no Myriad Transformation Realm cultivators in the Outer Sect; the Outer Elder is a Myriad Transformation Realm Second Stage existence.

He is specially dispatched from the Inner Sect to oversee the Outer Sect and manage these Outer Sect Elders.

The internal structure of the Sect is further divided into the Enforcement Hall, Scripture Pavilion, Weapon Refining Pavilion, Pill Cauldron Hall, Merit Hall, and Outer Affairs Hall.

Among them, the Enforcement Hall is responsible for supervising the discipline of the entire Sect and punishing those who violate Sect rules.

The Scripture Pavilion is the place within the Sect responsible for imparting cultivation techniques and learning martial skills.

The Weapon Refining Pavilion and Pill Cauldron Hall, as their names suggest, are places responsible for refining pills and weapons.

The Merit Hall is where Sect missions are issued, and rewards are obtained for completing them.

The Outer Affairs Hall is the department within the Sect specifically responsible for diplomacy with other Sects, or for handling external affairs such as Disciple recruitment.

These six major departments are also divided into Outer Sect and Inner Sect.

It's just that the open content, permissions, and treatment of relevant personnel differ.

Sect Disciples can choose to join one of them, and upon passing the assessment, they can officially become a member.

Qing Yuzi was a member of the Outer Affairs Hall, an Elder of the Outer Sect's Outer Affairs Hall.

He was originally an Inner Sect Disciple, but before reaching the age limit,

he had only broken through to Spirit Opening Realm Fourth Stage, and the Sect would certainly not allow people who were just coasting along within its gates.

Letting him leave was even more impossible.

So, he was demoted to an Elder position in the Outer Sect's Outer Affairs Hall.

The Outer Affairs Hall, at regular intervals, would dispatch these Outer Sect Elders of the Outer Affairs Hall to recruit Disciples based on the Sect's needs and assigned missions.

They would then assess whether the talents and aptitudes of the recruited Disciples met the standards.

Those who failed would be punished, and those who passed would be rewarded.

The better the talent of the recruited Disciples, the better the rewards they could receive.

Of course, it was inevitable that some people would line their own pockets and gain benefits during this process.

However, this phenomenon was not limited to the Outer Affairs Hall.

It existed in all other major departments, but the environment of the Outer Affairs Hall allowed it to be more rampant and audacious.

Moreover, not all areas were handled by their Outer Sect Outer Affairs Hall Elders for Disciple recruitment.

There were also many places that required Inner Sect Outer Affairs Hall Elders to personally take charge.

After all, in some areas, the general martial prowess was strong, and sending them would simply not be enough to control the situation.

For instance, in some large cities, local forces often included Myriad Transformation Realm existences, and sending them would only lead to a laughingstock.

Inner Sect Elders went to large cities, while Outer Sect Elders went to small cities.

Naturally, the number of recruitment slots held by Inner Sect Elders was significantly more than those held by Outer Sect Elders.

After understanding all this, Chen De had already decided which departments he wanted to develop in.

That would be the Scripture Pavilion, Weapon Refining Pavilion, and Pill Cauldron Hall—these three places.

Others could only join one place at a time, but Chen De was different.

Besides, Chen De's current visit wasn't entirely with the attitude of learning.

Chen De mainly wanted to recruit some personnel for himself and expand his small team.

People from the other departments were useless; enforcement—who could enforce Chen De's law?

The Outer Affairs Hall and Merit Hall were even more useless; did Chen De need to use official methods to gain Sect contributions?

Working tirelessly to complete missions wasn't as profitable as simply enlightening two people.

These two, including the Enforcement Hall, were all useless brutes.

Or they were a bunch of incompetent wastes who just wrote and drew, and embezzled benefits everywhere.

They didn't have any special skills; what use would Chen De have for them?

To do accounting?

Moreover, Chen De didn't even plan to stay in the Outer Sect for long.

What was the point of constantly mingling with minor characters in the Ning Yuan Realm?

Chen De planned to get the Outer Sect mostly under control, then have Qing Yuzi figure out a way to get Chen De an Inner Sect Disciple.

After enlightening him, Chen De could then go to the Inner Sect to cultivate.

As for the assessment, Chen De didn't even count on it; wasn't that just a waste of time?

Wasting time is wasting money, and wasting money is wasting life.

In Chen De's eyes, eliminating all evil money was the goal he would strive for his entire life.

Under Chen De's great ambition, it seemed as if Qing Yuzi and the others were all infected.

Even the demonic beast mount's flying speed couldn't help but increase a fewfold.

Then, Chen De and the others went through another spatial transfer array.

After that, they flew for another hundreds of thousands of kilometers.

Finally, in the distance, Chen De and the others saw the outline of Tianyan Sect.

Although the Sect only covered a mere 1.2 million square kilometers,

which was about the same size as the Vortex Forest where Chen De had been before,

its grandeur was far beyond what the Vortex Forest could match.

Even with Chen De's current cultivation, he felt a deep sense of oppression.

As the demonic beast mount continued to advance, finally...

Finally, Tianyan Sect had arrived.
