C2955 Be Honest
Faang Yang looked at the jade pendant in his hand. He didn't know whether to laugh or cry in his heart. Initially, he didn't plan to touch it, but in the end, it still fell on his head.
Although he didn't need to search for the jade pendant this time, once he obtained all the jade pendants... After all, the entire Hidden Sect was under his control. The only person who could make everyone feel at ease was Faang Yang, an outsider.
The others would more or less have the ambition to take the jade pendant as their own, except for Faang Yang, who had already been decided. Faang Yang had never thought that the matter would escalate to such an extent for the sake of a slot.
Even Huang Aohan, the Regulator, was no longer in their eyes.
Faang Yang's eyes fell on Huang Aohan. Although he was very annoyed, he still agreed to Huang Aohan's action in the end. Without a doubt, he had tacitly agreed to this point.
Obviously, they knew very well that the earlier Sect obtained the quota, the more advantages they would have. Even if there was such a chance in the future, they would still be a lot behind the ones who obtained the quota.
Especially after witnessing the power of the divine ability, everyone was heading to the Upper Realm to learn the Subsequent Cultivation Method of the Divine Ability Secret Arts.
Even if they couldn't learn it, they could at least find a substitute for the Cultivation Method, so that they wouldn't be too far behind.
The ones who were most anxious were the higher ups of the Hidden Sect, who had almost reached the end of their lifespans. They were even willing to lower their heads and compete with the younger generation for this quota. Furthermore, their influence in Hidden Sect had exceeded their imagination. Even Huang Aohan couldn't suppress them.
Faang Yang had yet to come into contact with the true core of Hidden Sect. Only now did he realize that the water in Hidden Sect was even more murky than what he had imagined.
At the same time, he was amazed by the foundation of the Hidden Sect. These Sect hadn't even revealed their true strength when they were fighting against the Evil Spirit Hall, but because of the quota, two supreme elders had emerged.
Perhaps it was because the main expansion of Evil Spirit Hall had fallen into the territory of the mage faction, but these supreme elders might not have a chance if they attacked once. Therefore, unless it was absolutely necessary, they would never show themselves.
Regarding this point, Faang Yang was very clear about it. Even Huang Aohan's Heavenly Sea Sect was the same. Faang Yang would never believe that they didn't hide their true strength.
After all, the Heavenly Sea Sect's mental cultivation method that Faang Yang had learned was obtained from a fallen senior of the Heavenly Sea Sect. The only reason they dared to let Faang Yang cultivate with such ease was because they wanted to get on good terms with him. It was not necessarily that they did not want to expose themselves.
Although Huang Aohan had already become a Regulator, he was still from the Heavenly Sea Sect, which made those supreme elders unwilling to believe him.
After all, if the supreme elder of the Heavenly Sea Sect asked Huang Aohan to hand over the jade pendant, no one would know whether he would hand it over or not. That was why they chose to hand the jade pendant over to Faang Yang.
Huang Aohan glanced at Faang Yang and said, "Do you want to return to the secular world? I'm afraid we don't know when you will be back. Don't you need to tell us anything?"
Faang Yang regained his senses. Several figures flashed across his mind. After a long silence, he said, "No need. I believe in them, just like how they trust me. Can I still return now?"
Faang Yang's words made Huang Aohan look at him. Obviously, he had also realized Faang Yang's change. He had to admit that as Faang Yang's cultivation base increased, he was getting further and further away from the secular world.
Even if Faang Yang wanted to go back, he might not be able to do so. Mortal Realm would not allow such a powerful person to stay any longer. When Faang Yang unleashed the Spirit Power, Huang Aohan could clearly feel the rejection from the Mortal Realm towards Faang Yang.
At the same time, he could also feel that Faang Yang's luck was gradually slipping away. Obviously, he was no longer blessed by the Mortal Realm, especially since the Mortal Realm was currently in a peaceful period. A person with Faang Yang's strength in the Mortal Realm would become a hidden threat in the Liao Fann Realm.
"There's no need to think so much. It was I who chose to break the shackles. No one forced me to do so. Also, the connection between the Mortal Realm and the Upper Realm has been restored. Even if I leave now, I will still pay attention to every movement of the Mortal Realm."
Thinking of this, Faang Yang's facial expression gradually relaxed. Huang Aohan couldn't help but admire Faang Yang's disposition. No wonder Faang Yang was able to cultivate to such an extent in his mortal body.
At this moment, he was even thinking whether he should let the disciples of the Hidden Sect go to the Mortal Realm to train and train. Otherwise, one would only be able to cultivate to such an extent. It was just a cultivation machine. If he really encountered something big, he would not be as strong as an ordinary person.
"It's decided then. I'll leave the search for the jade pendant to those disciples. Since we don't trust each other, we might as well put everything on the table. At least it won't cause us to lose control."
Huang Aohan calmed down and looked at Faang Yang gratefully. Not only had he helped Huang Aohan a lot, but he had also left a core force like the Elite Team behind. This had ensured that the Hidden Sect wouldn't have any problems after this incident.
Although there were only seven candidates from the Hidden Sect for this trip to the Upper Realm, these seven people must be the top forces in the Sect. Without such a force, the Hidden Sect's strength would surely be affected.
Fortunately, the disciples of the later generation had fully grown. There was no need for them to worry about this. And this was all thanks to Faang Yang, the Elite Team that he had brought with him. He had become the leader of the younger generation disciples and the best candidate to become the next Sect Master.
Sunn Yue had already said that if they left this time, these disciples of the Elite Team would be able to rise to the position immediately.
Although they might not be able to take over the power of the Sect immediately, it would be of great help to Huang Aohan in supervising the Hidden Sect.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Faang Yang took out the Azure Dragon Jade Pendant that he had and briefly told them about the jade pendant.0
Huang Aohan was stunned for a moment, then he immediately burst into laughter. "No wonder you are so fated with the Upper Realm. It's because of this relationship. There was no need to worry. Natural treasures were always obtained by fated people. Besides, with your strength, even if you don't have the jade pendant, you are still qualified to go to Upper Realm."
Huang Aohan didn't ask too many questions. Since Faang Yang was willing to take it out, it meant that he trusted him. Of course, he wouldn't be tactful. Besides, he was only guessing that Faang Yang might be the descendant of some hermit.
There weren't many people in Hidden Sect, but there were definitely a lot of them. Even Huang Aohan himself might not be able to recognize all of them, especially those hermits who did not leave the world. It was also the first time Huang Aohan had met many of them. There were also many who he had never even heard of.
"Then have you seen such a hermit before..." Faang Yang voiced out the doubts in his heart.
The few of them were able to avoid Faang Yang's investigation. They were obviously not ordinary.
However, Huang Aohan shook his head. "I just became a Regulator not long ago. Perhaps Senior Yun Xiao can recognize me, but I haven't gotten the chance to be completely familiar with this person. I don't know this person."
