C742 A Sign of Goodwill
Looking at the silent Sect Masters, Lin Xiao said with a clear voice, "I know everyone has their own thoughts. But in the current situation, there is no telling when the war will break out. We can't delay it at all! If everyone still has doubts, we can proceed with the probation period of three months or half a year. If you think it's feasible, we will continue to use it. If you think it's not possible, we can discuss other plans... What do you think? "
Although he had Leader of the Empty Sect's support, it wasn't easy for him to make a decision. Under such circumstances, Lin Xiao could only take a step back and ask for the second best. He would let these sect masters agree first, and then slowly let them accept it step by step!
"Alright!"
The sect masters of the other sects nodded their heads in agreement to Lin Xiao's suggestion.
There was no other way!
In fact, it wasn't because Lin Xiao's suggestion was good, but because they really couldn't find a better solution.
Under such circumstances, Lin Xiao's suggestion became a backup plan that every sect could accept. Instead, it gained the support of most people.
However, on the basis of Lin Xiao's suggestion, the various sects still added some restrictions.
For example, if there were more than three people who opposed a decision, they would have to discuss it again and not directly make a decision. To put it bluntly, the minority could follow the majority, but the minority must be small enough!
After all, no one was simple enough to become the master of a sect. No one wanted to be at a disadvantage in the Ten Sects Alliance. Therefore, Lin Xiao's suggestion had many restrictions.
However, Lin Xiao didn't really care about these restrictions. In his opinion, as long as this suggestion could be implemented, his objective would be achieved.
After all, he had three votes in his hands. No matter how many restrictions there were, he had nothing to be afraid of.
After all, there were many conflicts in Seven Sects of Central Prefecture. Under such circumstances, it was impossible for the Seven Sects to join forces to deal with the External Three Sects. Lin Xiao could be said to have gained the upper hand.
...
After Lin Xiao's suggestion was finalized, the Ten Sects Alliance began to set up defensive measures against the Asura Cult. Of course, they also wanted to take the initiative to attack, but their strength wouldn't allow it.
There was no other way!
The Asura Cult was just too powerful. Even though they were filled with anger towards the Asura Cult, the Seven Sects of Central Prefecture didn't dare to declare war against the Asura Cult. What they could do was to gather information and defend themselves.
Of course, it wasn't Lin Xiao's turn to do these things. As such, he had nothing to do in the Ten Sects Alliance. After all, apart from gathering information, there was nothing else that could be done by the General Supervisors of the Ten Sects Alliance.
Before the Asura Cult launched their attack, they could only defend passively.
Since there was nothing to do, Lin Xiao naturally couldn't stay idle. He found a secret chamber within the alliance and began his secluded cultivation.
Ever since he broke through to the Great Luo First Stage of the Golden Immortal Stage, he hadn't cultivated for a long time.
Although it was much more difficult to advance after breaking through to the Major Golden Immortal, Lin Xiao still couldn't give up. After all, only if he was strong enough would he be able to gain a foothold in this world!
"Sect Master Lin, are you there?"
Just as Lin Xiao was in seclusion, the Sect Master of the Medicine Sect, Faang Baijing, took the initiative to look for him.
After sizing up Fang Jingbai from head to toe, Lin Xiao cursed in his heart. Didn't Poison Lord say that the current sect master of the Medicine Sect was his junior brother? But this old man in front of him, he was afraid that Master, who was Poison Lord's age, would be enough!
Suppressing the doubt in his heart, Lin Xiao finally understood under the roundabout questioning.
Turns out that this old man in front of him was not Poison Lord's junior brother. It was his senior uncle. As for Poison Lord's junior brother, he had already disappeared a few hundred years ago, and had given the position of Sect Master to Fang Jingbai.
Lin Xiao also had some understanding of Faang Baijing. He had more or less understood Faang Baijing's character.
Currently, his strength was at the Half Saint late stage. With his talent, it was basically impossible for him to advance any further. Therefore, Faang Baijing's focus was no longer on cultivation. Instead, he was constantly making friends from a distance to develop the Medicine Sect.
Today, he had taken the initiative to visit. He must have come to build a good relationship!
After all, Faang Baijing was so active and proactive in the matters of Ten Sects Alliance. He definitely wanted to obtain some benefits from this. It was very important to build a good relationship and increase the number of votes!
Lin Xiao did not want to reject Fang Jingbai's arrival. He smiled and greeted him warmly. "Sect Master Fang, I have been looking forward to meeting you for a long time."
"What are you looking forward to meeting me for? Just don't scold me in your heart!"
With a light smile, Faang Baijing said, "I more or less know some of the grudges between you and our Medicine Sect! I know about the matters of Vermillion Bird City and Qingzhou City. I'm really sorry!"
In front of Ten Sects Alliance, Fang Jingbai did not care about these matters.
After all, Lin Xiao was merely a Great Luo First Stage of the Golden Immortal Stage expert and didn't have any special background. It wasn't worth spending too much time on him. However, regarding the matter of the Asura Cult, Lin Xiao had suddenly emerged from nowhere. Of course, Fang Jingbai couldn't miss this opportunity, so he did a thorough investigation on Lin Xiao.
Only after this investigation did he discover the grudge between Lin Xiao and their Medicine Sect!
Apart from his useless son who had a grudge with Lin Xiao the last time, Lin Xiao had a grudge with the Medicine King Trading Company long ago in Vermillion Bird City. The reason he came here this time was to explain it to Lin Xiao.
After all, the relationship between the External Three Sects and Fang Jingbai was well known in his heart. If he wanted to do something, he would need the support of the External Three Sects!
"Sect Master Fang, you're too polite. These matters are all in the past!"
Lin Xiao didn't expect Faang Baijing to be so straightforward. He had just seen Lin Xiao, and Faang Baijing had already apologized to him for their past grudges. This made him feel a little embarrassed.
No matter what, he was now a man with a prestigious reputation. He still had this bit of magnanimity.
"Don't mention it, Sect Master Lin!"
Faang Baijing shook his head and looked at Lin Xiao. He said directly, "These are my subordinates who are not sensible! Don't worry. When I return to the Medicine Sect in a while, I will definitely ask the manager of Medicine King Trading Company and my son to personally apologize to you."
"This..."
It had to be said that even Lin Xiao himself was a little surprised when he heard this. In Lin Xiao's opinion, although the Medicine Sect was unreasonable in the past, his counterattack was pretty good. The Medicine Sect didn't gain any advantage. Under such circumstances, the other party still apologized to him. He really felt a little bad about it.
"Sect Master Lin, there's no need to be polite to them. It's their fault that they dared to offend you. Since there's a mistake, of course they have to correct it!"
Faang Baijing looked at Lin Xiao and said with a smile on his face.
Lin Xiao was speechless.
Lin Xiao really didn't know how to respond to this. However, since Faang Baijing was so insistent, it wouldn't be appropriate for Lin Xiao to reject him.
