Chapter 895: 845
As for the intentions of these people, Pei Xuanjing was naturally crystal clear; these individuals were from enemy nations and various nefarious forces. They believed that Pei Xuanjing was without his own power and therefore controllable, wishing to use him as a puppet to divide the Dahong Dynasty.
Pei Xuanjing flatly refused them, but they were not willing to give up.
Faced with Pei Xuanjing’s rejection, these people were insistent and would not back down due to just one refusal.
In the time that followed, they visited Taixuan Temple repeatedly, trying to persuade Pei Xuanjing to join the succession struggle, offering lavish gifts as a temptation.
“Gifts blind the eyes,” as the saying goes. Such actions signified that these people’s schemes were anything but trivial. After pondering, Pei Xuanjing decided to feign agreement, accepting their proposal for the time being.
However, what these people did not expect was that Pei Xuanjing only agreed on the surface. After accepting their favors, he immediately reported everything to the old Emperor and the many Princes.
...
Regarding Pei Xuanjing’s actions, the old Emperor and various Princes had differing opinions, but no matter what, they all had to present him with rewards to set an example.
It could be said that, through this event, Pei Xuanjing had his cake and ate it too, gaining a significant amount of cultivation resources. These resources undoubtedly saved him much cultivation time, allowing him to speed up the cultivation progress of his body.
