Earlier, he was dealing with the affairs of Tongtian Peak. Now, he was preparing to deal with the affairs of the entire Heavenly Cloud Sect.
Normally, this gathering of people to deal with the affairs of the entire Heavenly Cloud Sect would happen once a month.
Dao Xuan went into closed-seclusion for three months this time. Many matters that needed him, the sect master, to personally make decisions were all delayed. Now that he came out of seclusion, he naturally had to deal with them as soon as possible.
"Greetings, Sect Leader Senior Brother!"
The six branch masters and over 30 elders cupped their fists and bowed.
"Junior Brothers, there's no need to be so polite.”Dao Xuan stretched out his right hand and said with a smile.
At the same time, he quietly sized up the six heads of department and the elders who were very familiar but also unfamiliar.
The stern-faced Cang Tong, the fat Tian Buzhou, the oldest Zeng Shuping, the cold but beautiful Shui Jing, the gentle but not outstanding Shang Zhengdong, and Di Yun.
Seeing it with his own eyes, plus the rough descriptions in the novel, Dao Xuan was basically clear about their strength in his heart.
Among them, Cang Tong and Tian Buzhou were the highest. They were in the fourth layer of the Shang Qing Realm. They had crossed the big gap between the third and fourth layers and stepped into a new world.
Zeng Shuping was at the peak of the third level of the Shang Qing Realm, and Shui Jing was also at the third level. Although the third level and the fourth level were only one level apart, they were two different worlds.
With the two people's innate talent and potential, under normal circumstances, they probably did not have much chance of breaking through to the fourth level!
Shang Zhengdong and Di Yun were at the peak of the second layer and were considered the most unremarkable.
It was no wonder that Wan Yijian once said that among the six line chiefs, only Cang Tong and Tian Buzhou were considered good, and the others were not good.
Three of the 30 elders were at the first level of the Upper Clarity Realm, while the rest were at the ninth or tenth level of the Jade Clarity Realm. To become an elder of the Heavenly Cloud Sect, one had to be at least at the ninth level of the Jade Clarity Realm.
Of course, these 30 elders were not all the elders of Heavenly Cloud Sect. There were about 100 elders in Heavenly Cloud Sect.
Some of them were in seclusion to cultivate. It was not appropriate to call them unless it was an emergency. Some of them were traveling around, and some of them had gone down the mountain to do something.
Under Dao Xuan's sizing up, Cang Tong six people sat down on the six chairs below him. The rest of the elders stood at the bottom.
"This time, I went into seclusion to cultivate, causing the sect to accumulate too little internal affairs. It's my fault.”In the quiet atmosphere, Dao Xuan said slowly.
"Senior Brother Sect Leader is too polite!" Everyone immediately shook their heads and said. It was normal for people in the Shang Qing Realm to cultivate in seclusion for a few months. Naturally, no one would complain.
Dao Xuan was no longer courteous either, formally discussing with everyone and handling Heavenly Cloud Sect's affairs.
An hour and a half later, the affairs were all settled. All the elders retreated, leaving only the Dao Xuan seven people to discuss some confidential matters.
For example, the movements of the other five righteous sects, guessing their actions, the movements of the demonic path, and so on.
Not long after, the six heads left. Dao Xuan fell into deep thought, not for anything else, but for Cang Tong.
Cang Tong had made a huge mistake, falling into the demonic path and might have even harmed many lives.
However, he had never seen the other party wantonly harm the innocent. If he had seen the other party wantonly harm the innocent, it might have aroused his anger and made him want to kill.
This wasn't a saint, but a normal thing.
After all, whether it was the original Dao Xuan or the ordinary Fang Lei, they were not cold and heartless people.
On the contrary, Dao Xuan was originally a righteous person who was willing to sacrifice himself for the sake of the common people. Fang Lei lived in that world and also had an instinctive value for human life.
Right now, Dao Xuan who had fused two souls and memories, although he had ambition, selfishness, a heart as hard as iron, and was even less of a good person, if he was made to watch helplessly as large numbers of innocent people were killed in front of him and remain indifferent in his heart, he admitted that he still could not do it.
He was a human, a man of flesh and blood, not a machine. He was not a virtual character in novels who could easily become cold and merciless and destroy the world without blinking.
But now, he did not personally witness Cang Tong wantonly killing the innocent.
As the Sect Master of the Heavenly Cloud Sect, he was ambitious and selfish. He was not a good person. Naturally, he could not arouse his killing intent and did not want to get rid of Cang Tong.
Just like in his previous life, when a person saw the news of someone killing someone on the Internet, the news was not detailed, so he did not feel much.
However, if that person was right in front of you or on the news, it would be written in great detail that the other party had killed a cute little girl, and the methods used were extremely cruel.
Other than fear, any normal man would be angry as long as he still had the guts.
If they still had strength, they would even have killing intent. This was human nature.
Of course, there was a reason why the word 'innocent' was used to refer to people.
To Dao Xuan, not to mention killing bad people or hateful people, even if Cang Tong killed people from Mount Shu, Divine Music Temple, and other famous sects, even if the other party was not a bad person or a good person, he had seen it with his own eyes, but he would definitely not be angry.
This was the selfishness and nature of humans. Mount Shu and the Divine Music Temple were his natural enemies. No matter how many people he killed, it would not arouse his anger.
This was also the correct attitude for a qualified sect leader.
Just like the original Dao Xuan in the novel, the Beast God wreaked havoc in the Central Plains. He would pity the common people and sacrifice himself for them.
However, he would not show any mercy to the righteous sects that had died under the claws of the Beast God army.
As he pondered, since he did not want to kill Cang Tong, who was currently ranked in the top four of Heavenly Cloud Sect, he should consider how to make use of him to increase his own benefits.
In any case, although he didn't kill Cang Tong, he didn't have a good feeling about him.
Time passed bit by bit, and all sorts of thoughts gradually perfected in Dao Xuan's heart.
Cang Tong had fallen into the demonic path. This identity was very useful. If the content in that novel really happened, there were still about 30 years left until then. With these time arrangements, combined with what he knew might happen next.
He might be able to achieve fame and fortune and maximize his own interests.
However, the things involved were very complicated and needed to be planned slowly. Moreover, this was not a simple novel world. He had to consider all aspects.
