Chapter 784 -734: The Struggle Between Legitimate and Illegitimate Offspring
No matter whether they are disciples from the Taoist Academy or cultivators groomed by the Shenxiao Sect, as long as they respect Pei Xuanjing and regard him as a senior, they are all viewed as his junior, without any discrimination, in Pei’s eyes.
However, while that’s Pei Xuanjing’s perspective, the Taoist Academy disciples and Shenxiao Sect cultivators see it differently. Each of them considers themselves the direct descendants and believes that the others should be in a lower position than them.
The disciples of the Shenxiao Sect see the cultivators of the Taoist Academy as newcomers and not true inheritors of the Shenxiao lineage. The disciples of the Taoist Academy, in turn, view themselves as Pei Xuanjing’s trusted followers. Both parties thoroughly enjoy this squabble over status.
This contentious atmosphere is unavoidable between cultivators from these two factions.
Such squabbles may not matter to Pei Xuanjing, but to these cultivators, they are very significant. After all, Pei Xuanjing’s current status is extraordinary, and to become a direct descendant of a formidable figure like him is a remarkable honor.
However, Pei Xuanjing doesn’t pay much heed to these matters; they are simply too distant for him to be concerned about.
At present, he assigned all affairs related to his two influences under his control, the Shenxiao Sect, and all matters of the Taoist School to Pang Hong, the junior sect leader. Meanwhile, he assigned Yu Zhenzi and others to assist.
Pei Xuanjing had likewise handed all affairs related to the Taoist Academy to the deputy dean Qingyang Zi. Aside from the countless skills he had inferred while Refining Taoyun, that he put into the Academy’s contribution system for the many disciples’ cultivation, Pei Xuanjing had not otherwise interfered in other matters.
However, since he’s now out of seclusion, he should naturally pay some attention to the affairs of the Taoist Academy.
