Chapter 1660: Chapter 27: Fang Che and Yan Beihan

Damn! I can’t keep thinking about this!

"Your cultivation level isn’t low, huh."

Yan Beihan said indifferently, casting a sidelong glance at Fang Che, who was surprisingly hunched over; and then the aura of the Heart Stabilizing Technique seemed to emerge from him.

He couldn’t help but feel amused yet annoyed: this bastard actually started using the Bingche Spirit Platform!

He couldn’t help but feel a bit comforted.

It seems this guy isn’t a completely insensitive brute...

Of course, Yan Beihan didn’t know that Fang Che was currently thinking about Ye Meng, and what’s more... If he knew, the Eldest Lady Yan would likely go berserk on the spot, drawing her sword and slashing wildly.

"Not too bad." Fang Che struggled to suppress his Mental Realm with the Bingche Spirit Platform, feeling that the tension had quietly turned into a dead snake.

So he relaxed and said with a composed smile: "Thanks to Mr. Yan for the resources last time, they truly were a rare treasure, and those Spiritual Wines, I didn’t waste a drop, I drank them all myself."

"You really drank them all yourself?" Yan Beihan turned his head.

A strand of hair brushed across Fang Che’s face as she turned her head at that moment.

Softly sweeping past.

This is bad, really bad...

Fang Che kept running the Bingche Spirit Platform, his face sincere: "Yes. Mr. Yan knows that I’m all alone, and I couldn’t find anyone to drink with even if I wanted to, and with such quality wine, how could I bear to share it with others?"

Actually, those wines were all drunk with Ye Meng... but he couldn’t think about that anymore.

The feeling of explosion time and again...

Too uncomfortable.

Yan Beihan felt a bit uncomfortable again, but also a bit happy. He couldn’t understand why he was so emotional.

He lightly sighed and said: "I have already conquered the Hanjian Mountain Sect. You guessed correctly; inside the Outer World Mountain Sect, it’s not a seamless entity at all, and the internal power struggles and rivalries are as intense as those outside. Moreover, factions are rampant, full of despicable, unscrupulous politicking, people driven by selfishness and cowardice, and betrayals full of deceit..."

When it came to serious matters, Fang Che felt calm: "The Outer World Mountain Sect is also human; and it has a major flaw: for so many years, they’ve never come out, with so many people always holed up within one sect. They almost never have the chance to fight outsiders, so what do they do? They end up fighting amongst themselves! Inter-sect competition and conflicts abound..."

"Each one acts big within their own sect, so once there’s a real external force that can intervene, those supposedly powerful sects instantly turn into scattered sand."

"And when the external force is strong enough to crush the entire sect, it immediately splits; some leave, while others depend on the external force to stay. It’s a pattern, no sect can escape it."

Fang Che said: "However, achieving such conditions requires Mr. Yan’s effective command. After all, if the planning is poor, it could end up backfiring, uniting the other side against us, then it would be a failure."

Yan Beihan listened seriously, just feeling that every word was precious.

He turned to look at Fang Che’s side profile as he spoke, feeling that despite being ugly, that face was filled with charm at this moment.

Because what Yemo said was truly the golden rule, hitting the core contradiction.

If utilized well, it can indeed cause a complete collapse with one strike.

"But I still feel somewhat uncomfortable."

Yan Beihan lightly sighed and finally expressed his true concern in this world of just two people: "What makes me uncomfortable is... those who left, like Gu Changhan, are all talented, with true grit as swordsmen. But those who stayed, like Ji Changyan and others, although they have surrendered to our Wei Wo Zheng Sect, I am still a bit dissatisfied with their character traits."

"I just feel that, individually, they’re a bit too cowardly."

Yan Beihan furrowed his exquisite brows and candidly said: "I look down on these people."

This is truly my objective.

Otherwise, what could it be?

Fang Che muttered inwardly and then consoled: "Mr. Yan, your concerns may be a bit overreaching."

Yan Beihan turned, his eyes bright: "What do you mean?"

"Since we’ve intervened, then we must absorb those who lean toward us, whom we can help. It’s simply mutual benefit."

Fang Che said calmly: "Mr. Yan, think about it. If the same plan were implemented by the Guardians, then Gu Changhan and others would gain the upper hand, and those being driven out would be Ji Changyan and others. At that time, would you feel that Ji Changyan and others were the ones with true grit? The real swordsmen?"

Yan Beihan was momentarily stunned.

I must say, what Yemo said truly had some logic.

From another standpoint, maybe Ji Changyan and others aren’t entirely unworthy?

But he still felt a vague sense of wrongness.

"You’re messing with the concept."

Yan Beihan suddenly realized and angrily said: "If the Guardians were to implement it, with Ji Changyan and others’ character, under immense pressure, not only wouldn’t they leave, but they’d probably collectively turn to the Guardians."

Yan Beihan said: "Because their character is such that they waver in favor of strength."

"Exactly."

Fang Che calmly said: "So what are you worried about, Mr. Yan? This outcome is unsurprising; however, since we’re the ones implementing the plan, it means we’ve won over those who could have leaned toward the Guardians. This fundamentally weakens the Guardians’ power and strengthens our foundation. Isn’t that a good thing?"

"And as for Gu Changhan and others, whether we implement the plan or the Guardians do, they’re destined to not be on our side. You understand that, right?"
