Chapter 683 -649: This is our Former Sect Hierarch_2

Do they not know that if Invincible assumes religious authority, how many people in the Light God Sect will perish unjustly? How many families will be broken and lives lost?

Wanyan Layman also furrowed his brows deeply, remaining silent.

He actually did not wish to see the Light God Sect splinter; as a Vice Sect Hierarch of the grand Sect, he held a share in it. How could Wanyan Layman wish to see it fragment?

However, Wanyan Layman also did not want to see King Ming and the Invincible Dharma King’s authority and prestige become too overwhelming.

Shancai Divine Envoy Zhao Chongling was also fraught with worry; he was concerned about the finances of the Divine Sect.

The miracle performed by ‘King Ming’ at the grand assembly of Guang Ming, although it prevented the Sect from splitting, did not resolve the financial crisis and predicament of the Light God Sect.

Waging war against Da Cheng Country requires substantial financial support, and once all parties start to join forces to besiege them, revenue from the various districts and branches of the Sect will inevitably plummet. Where would they find the finances to contribute to the Main Temple then?

This heavy financial pressure would inevitably further percolate down to the believers.

At this moment, the Red Priests were engaged in a heated argument.

“His Highness King Ming is utterly muddle-headed. How could he let the Invincible Dharma King become the Regent Deputy?”

“I think this one is secretly weak and incompetent. He is already recognized and convinced by everyone in the Light God Sect as King Ming; why hand over religious authority to Invincible?”

“And that bastard Heavenly Blade Dharma King, has he gone mad? He has been a Dharma King for over a hundred years, now he goes wagging his tail to Invincible, isn’t he afraid of being laughed at by the brothers in the Sect?”

“I’m even more worried about the Beicheng District; once the fighting starts, it will bring continuous calamity! In fact, at this time, it would be a better strategy to yield and avoid the sharp edges, wait until the Three Gods of Purgatory stir up a demonic wave, and when Da Cheng Country is too busy to care, the Beicheng District can still make a resurgence.”

“Indeed! In reality, the Divine Sect could negotiate with Da Cheng Country to buy time for our Sect; even if we have to ask the believers to pay a little more in taxes, it is still better than starting a war.”

“Damn it! Invincible wants our district to either send over the armies of our branch to the Protection Army and pay this year’s tributes to the Main Temple in full, or make up for the contributions of the past two years. Does she not know what’s going on with this sum of money? It has all been swallowed by Elder Wan Xin.”

Upon hearing this, Shancai Divine Envoy Zhao Chongling couldn’t help but sneer slightly.

If this guy hadn’t stuffed Silver Coin into Elder Wan Xin’s pockets, how could he have been promoted so quickly to ‘Cardinal Red Priest’?

The Light God Sect has over a hundred Eighth Realm Red Priests in the Main Temple alone. Only a part of them with particularly strong Bloodline Abilities and especially strong and pure Divine Fire could become leaders of important departments or district and branch managers, usually referred to as Cardinal Red Priests.

However, ever since Elder Wan Xin was appointed by the former Sect Hierarch fifty years ago to assist in wielding religious authority, not just one but several Red Priests with insufficient achievements and strengths below the Super Emperor Rank have been appointed as Cardinals, which has led to dissent among the Sect members and inefficiency.

Zhao Chongling thought that Invincible’s rise might have some advantages; it could sort out the finances and also track down the original sources to rectify wrongdoings and evil practices to a certain extent.

However, the next sentence discussed by these people made Zhao Chongling’s expression turn grim.

“Do you know that the Earth Federation is about to embargo our Divine Sect; materials below the Sixth Realm will be ignored, but sensitive materials above the Sixth Realm, including injections, armaments, various war machines, etc., will all be banned.”

“How could this be? These Heavenly Demons, they truly are not of our kind, and their hearts must be different. Aren’t they afraid we’ll run out of supplies?”

“Run out of supplies? Who would buy our goods if we don’t sell them to those Outer Heaven Demons? It was always goods nobody wanted in the past.”

“Not only this, but they have also banned all Surgical Implantation procedures. I had an appointment with a very reliable Prosthetic Doctor, but now he has broken the contract, saying that the Federation issued a warning to him; if he dares to perform armament procedures for us, they will severely punish him.”

“The message has come from the Heavenly Demon side; as long as Invincible Dharma King is willing to step down, or Invincible dissolves and destroys the Starship Fleets under her command, they will lift the embargo—”

At this time, there was a sudden silence in the hall; everyone looked at each other, their expressions indescribable.

Zhao Chongling noticed that about a dozen people in the hall were intentionally or unintentionally looking at him, but he couldn’t be bothered to respond.

Although Invincible, after becoming the Regent Deputy Sect Leader, reached out to his ‘Shancai Holy Hall’ immediately, she did not directly seize his position. Since Zhao Chongling did not have much individual interest in the local area, it was not his turn to step up now.

Even if Zhao Chongling was dissatisfied with Invincible, he had no intention to sabotage her during these difficult times for the Divine Sect.

He was merely curious about what Invincible’s purpose was in collecting so many ‘Starships’?

As far as he knew, the Five Great Abysses had always been accumulating Starships with the help of ‘Mechanical God Temple’ and the Heavenly Demon smugglers; just Great Song alone reportedly had 200 Starships of various models.

However, the Starships under Invincible Dharma King already equipped with the so-called ‘Quantum Migration Device’ reached 80 vessels, in addition, there were over 240 more Warships with the potential for Starship refitting.

What exactly does this woman intend to do, as the Light God Sect is already struggling to resist the encirclement of All Gods, does she really plan to attack the Heavenly Demon Origin?

“Enough!”

At this moment, Wanyan Layman put down his wine glass: “There is a saying among the people, ‘When the nest is overturned, no egg remains unbroken.’ At this critical time for the Divine Sect, we must unite our hearts and meet the challenges together. It’s okay to vent grievances in front of me, but if you dare to openly promote or put your foolish thoughts into action, I will be the first to be merciless to you.”
