Chapter 1581 - 363: Hey, Hey, Where Are You Putting Your Hands? (Part 3)

Of course, this is not the main reason. If Han Lin’er were truly prepared, Liu Futong and the others would all send their respective experts to assist Han Lin’er in obtaining this Qiankun Great Method.

However, the internal unity of the Zoroastrian Sect is also lacking.

This has been mentioned before; there were no objections to Han Shantong being the Sect Hierarch. But after Han Shantong’s death, if Liu Futong were to take over the position of Sect Hierarch, there wouldn’t be an issue. However, Liu Futong insisted on supporting Han Lin’er.

Han Lin’er is young and finds it difficult to gain the support of the masses, which makes the other two influential figures within the Zoroastrian Sect quite annoyed.

Whether for the future development of the Holy Sect or for other reasons, they do not want Han Lin’er to continue occupying the position.

Hence, the Zoroastrian Sect divided into three factions.

They are the Protection of the Young Faction led by Liu Futong, the Strong Support Faction led by Mr. Duozhi Huguan, one of the two Dharma Kings, and the Self-reliance Faction led by Descending Mountain Tiger Du Zundao.

The Protection of the Young Faction is easy to understand; it is Liu Futong’s faction, aiming to protect the young master. Who is the young master?

There’s no doubt about it, it’s certainly Han Lin’er.

Liu Futong’s faction advocates supporting Han Lin’er to inherit the late sect hierarch’s will and to develop the Zoroastrian Sect further.

Apart from Liu Futong’s Protection of the Young Faction, the remaining is the Strong Support Faction led by Mr. Duozhi Huguan. What is strong support? It means supporting the strongest person in the Zoroastrian Sect.

As for who is the strongest in the Zoroastrian Sect, there is only one person, Yushan Monk Liu Futong.

Simply put, Mr. Guan means that the Zoroastrian Sect cannot withstand more upheavals now, so he suggests replacing the young master in favor of supporting Liu Futong as the master of the Zoroastrian Sect.

However, Liu Futong wouldn’t agree no matter what, leading to a strained relationship between Mr. Duozhi Huguan and Liu Futong.

Then there’s the schemer Descending Mountain Tiger Du Zundao, who is extremely obsessed with power; he has even infiltrated the court as an undercover agent, reaching the highest position of Minister along the way.

His personal strength is also very strong, not much weaker than Liu Futong, although he hasn’t ascended the Heavenly List.

But he also has his ambitions, so when Liu Futong and Mr. Guan were having a heated dispute over who should be the hierarch, Du Zundao stepped up. It was obvious; he certainly didn’t recognize Han Lin’er as the young master.

The Zoroastrian Sect had already torn faces with the court; continuing to support the young master now would certainly not be good for the development of the Zoroastrian Sect.

Therefore, he agreed with Mr. Duozhi Huguan’s Strong Support Faction. But, as everyone knows, Liu Futong doesn’t want to become the hierarch; there’s a saying that a forced melon isn’t sweet, you can’t force him with a knife to become one, can you?

So why not settle for the second best option and support the current second strongest person in the Zoroastrian Sect as hierarch?

Who is the second strongest?

It’s very obvious, naturally, it is me, Descending Mountain Tiger Du Zundao.

So I, Du Zundao, endorse myself as the hierarch, which is the third force, the Self-reliance Faction.

It’s like this that the people within a sect made a mess, yes, forming gangs throughout the Zoroastrian Sect, which has constantly prevented Han Lin’er from having the opportunity to enter the Ruins.

And Liu Caidie had once inadvertently overheard her grandfather feeling quite helpless about the matter, saying many times that if Han Lin’er showed a bit of promise and could retrieve the Qiankun Great Method from the Returning Ruins Cave and cultivate it, it could placate the masses.

This made Liu Caidie believe that the Zoroastrian Sect’s current troubles actually all boiled down to this Qiankun Great Method. If Han Lin’er could obtain this Qiankun Great Method, then all of the Zoroastrian Sect’s issues could be resolved.

This is also one of the reasons why Liu Caidie was determined to get Chen Jie to find the Qiankun Great Method.

Through intelligence analysis, Chen Jie also understood why Liu Caidie was so insistent on having him seize the Qiankun Great Method. At this moment, seeing Liu Caidie’s anxious appearance, he said, "Miss Liu, you don’t plan to have me find the Qiankun Great Method, then use the conditions I agreed to return, to make me give this cultivation technique to your young master Han Lin’er, do you?"

Hmm!!

Chen Jie spoke in a teasing tone, but Liu Caidie was wide-eyed upon hearing this, with an incredulous look on her face.

"You, how did you know?"

Liu Caidie looked at Chen Jie in amazement, did this person possess Mind Reading Technique? Even such a hidden thought was seen through by him?

With this thought, Liu Caidie warily looked at Chen Jie and said, "You, what do you want?"

Chen Jiusi said, "Don’t be nervous, Miss Liu. Although your idea is naive, I agreed."

"What, you agreed?"

Liu Caidie was even more surprised: "But I am using you."

Chen Jiusi responded, "There are many ways to express a person’s value, and among them, being of use to others is actually something to be happy about, isn’t it?"

"You, you really are a strange person."

Chen Jie laughed.

However, Liu Caidie did not completely let down her guard due to Chen Jie’s words and said, "You are so cunning, are you really willing to be used by me like this?"

Chen Jiusi looked at her and said, "You saved my life, and besides..."

Chen Jie gestured to his condition and said, "Do I have any other choice?"

Seeing Chen Jie like this, Liu Caidie said, "Yes, you have no choice but to help me."

"But there’s one thing I’ve never understood. How can you be so sure that I can find the Qiankun Great Method you need in the Ruins?"

Upon hearing this, Liu Caidie said, "Because you practice the Seventeen Dragon Capturing Palms and, moreover, a complete set of the Seventeen Dragon Capturing Palms."

Upon hearing this, Chen Jie slightly furrowed his brows and said, "What is different about the Seventeen Dragon Capturing Palms?"

Upon hearing this, Liu Caidie looked at Chen Jie and said, "You can’t be completely unaware of your Seventeen Dragon Capturing Palms, can you?"
