Chapter 721: Sect Leader

A lone figure stood atop the edge of a mountain peak, gazing down at the many buildings and bustling figures of the sect. His sect. A very pleased smile made its home upon his face and he spent hours enjoying the view. The mere thought of all these people being his subordinates helped him get over how many years he spent living as an insect and burrowing in the ground, then the decades he spent in a brand new body growing back up to adulthood and finally working up to his current position.

No one can keep Jinxi down! Its only a matter of time before I rise again. I dont know if it's because of how much time passed, or if Ive been exiled to the far reaches of humanity, but these groups are so much weaker. Once I expand my territory large enough Ill be able to gather so many resources that it will put the old Chong Clan to shame. The Elders of the Yeying Shan Sect are so much easier to control than the factions of the Chong Clan.

Since hed just taken over, he was in no hurry to make big changes. His patience was endless after all. It wouldnt matter if he took complete control now or hundreds of years from now. Since hed just become the Sect Leader he would first aim for the path of least resistance. He spent the next few years trying to pull over those who supported the prior Sect Leader to his side. The more support he had among the Elders the easier it would be to make changes. He also married the daughter of a very wealthy rogue cultivator and brought the rogue cultivator in question into the Yeying Shan Sect as a guest elder. The debut release of this chapter happened at Ñòv€l-B1n.

He also started to take some of the young talents under his wing to raise as disciples. With his great experience and access to resources he could raise them into new Elders for the sect. All the Elders were doing the same thing, but his greater experience and wealth of knowledge along with the first pick of the most talented youngsters would mean his own disciples would have an advantage.

In fact, Dou Bao was quite surprised by the techniques that they had in the Yeying Shan Sect. They werent really of the highest quality hed ever seen, but they had a few full sets. If the sect was really ancient he would think they would have many hundreds of techniques, but instead they had less than thirty. For a very old sect, they would collect the techniques of their enemies, purchase them at auctions, or even invent new ones themselves. On the other hand, the Yeying Shan Sect just had six sets of four to six techniques that seemed perfectly suited to six different types of cultivators. It seemed more like six famous cultivators teamed up and formed a sect to pass down their signature skill sets. Since they wanted their own skills to carry on, they didnt leave anything else behind.

At that moment, the tent flap rustled and a Flying Messenger Scroll flew into the room. It flew over to Dou Bao and then unfurled itself for him to read. Almost instantly he recognized the seal at the bottom as belonging to his wife. What sort of trouble was she up to? Doesnt she realize we are at war? I dont have time for frivolous things!

He skimmed through the note and then frowned. The armored generals stepped back so they couldnt read the scroll, but the young man saw the seal on it and walked around the table to get a closer look, Whats wrong, Father? Did something happen to Mother?

Dou Bao waved his hand and the scroll twisted around for his son to read. Then the young man was silent for a moment, copying his fathers momentary loss of words. Then the man took a bow towards his father, Please forgive my brother, Father. I did not help him enough when we were younger.

Is not the father more responsible than the brother? I didnt beat that son enough.

Dou Bao holds up a clasped fist to salute each of the other Generals, Forgive me, my son had gotten himself into trouble with a bigshot. I have to go, but when I return we will begin our assault once more. Use this time to figure out the best course of action.

Who did that little fool offend?
