Longevity Immortal City.
Su Wu had never thought that a powerful force could be so incredibly patient and concealed. He knew from the beginning that the Green Mountain Sect acted low-key, but he never imagined it would be this low-key.
By now, a month had passed since he joined the Green Mountain Sect. At first, he didn’t have any tasks, and thought it was because the sect didn’t trust him.
After all, he had just joined the Green Mountain Sect, so it was understandable that many of the sect’s actions were carried out secretly without his knowledge.
As a result, Su Wu wasn’t really in a hurry. After all, time would reveal a person’s true character. Soon enough, the Green Mountain Sect would understand that he had no ulterior motives and only wanted the best for the sect.
However, it wasn’t until a year later that he realized how wrong he was. It wasn’t that the Green Mountain Sect was secretly up to no good; rather, they seemed utterly desireless and indifferent.
How could he compete with others if they continued to be so passive? One misstep would lead to continuous failure!
Now, Su Wu didn’t have any other options given that the other forces within the Immortal City had been almost “infiltrated” by their Immortal Dynasty guests, each with its own master. It was impossible for him to switch, and likewise impossible for anyone else to join the Green Mountain Sect.
The Immortal Dynasty had its own rules for this opportunistic competition. Once each competitor had chosen their own competitive plan, the contest would proceed fairly.
Only if someone voluntarily gave up their opportunity and chose to assist others instead could they join the same force.
This rule was indeed somewhat difficult to understand, but it was a lesson from history. Behind each unintelligible rule, there would be an unintelligible story.
Now, Su Wu could only rejoice in the fact that the Green Mountain Sect’s strength far exceeded his expectations. Even if the Green Mountain Sect did nothing, it would inevitably be drawn into the swirling chaos of the Immortal City.
Even if the Green Mountain Sect did not strive actively, others would not let them off. In that case, they would either swallow their pride or be forced to resist.
He decided to wait for now and not be too impatient. He must not be concerned about temporary gains and losses. The one who laughed last would be the true winner.
Time slowly passed as he lay hidden, and in the blink of an eye, twenty years had gone by.
Unbeknownst to him, he had become the Vice Sect Leader of the Green Mountain Sect. Even Su Wu found it somewhat incredible.
It turned out that the Green Mountain Sect didn’t distrust him; in fact, they trusted him immensely. At this point, many of the sect’s “secrets” were known to him.
Even the secret of the great power supporting the Green Mountain Sect from behind the scenes was not hidden from him. Although Su Wu didn’t know exactly who this great and mysterious “Ancestor” was.
But Sect Leader Zhou Fang had hinted to him that the Green Mountain Sect was not without its foundation, and the only reason he wasn’t told everything at the moment was simply that he was not yet the sect leader.
Wasn’t this a clear indication that Su Wu was the successor to the sect leader? Why would they trust him so much? Su Wu felt a little guilty, as he had harbored malicious thoughts against them before.
Zhou Fang had also hinted that the power behind the Green Mountain Sect was actually far stronger than any of them could imagine, but they chose to remain low-key and not attract attention.
These hints naturally excited Su Wu even more, reassuring him that he had made the right choice. It seemed that he had been blessed with luck and destiny from the very beginning.
Under these circumstances, he naturally became motivated and began to cooperate more actively with the Green Mountain Sect, as he also believed Zhou Fang had not deceived him.
In fact, over the past twenty years, some forces in the Immortal City had attempted to absorb the Green Mountain Sect after their own strength had expanded.
However, no matter who their opponents were or how strong they were, in the end, they all failed miserably. They even had to apologize and make amends to save face and maintain peace between the two parties.
But there were also those who were blinded and underestimated the Green Mountain Sect. In the end, their forces quietly collapsed, and they disappeared from the Longevity Immortal City.
Among these forces were Golden Core Daoists who had come with Su Wu for the trial. After they failed against the Green Mountain Sect, they were filled with regret.
Because their failed offensive meant they had lost their chance in the competition, and all they could feel in their hearts was depression and helplessness.
They could only blame themselves for not recognizing the true face of Mount Lu. After their failure in the competition, their gaze towards Su Wu was somewhat complicated.
Such luck indeed.
But they didn’t know that the Green Mountain Sect held Su Wu in such high regard for a special reason, a reason even the upper echelons of the Green Mountain Sect did not understand.
At this time, the relationship between the Green Mountain Sect and the Zhou Family was kept secret from everyone. Even Zhou Fang had received orders to gradually cut contact with the Zhou Family over these twenty years.
The internal situation of the Green Mountain Sect was almost completely open to Su Wu, thanks to Guest Elder Jin Quanxiu’s instructions to the Zhou Family from behind the scenes.
Of course, the ultimate mastermind behind all of this was Liang Sheng. Under the Law of Cause and Effect Divine Ability, he had already completed the most advantageous plan for himself.
Liang Sheng intended to groom Su Wu to be the master of the Immortal City, so that he could use this cause and effect relationship to live a comfortable life in the days to come.
He had no intention of sabotaging the Immortal Dynasty’s plans. With Su Wu controlling the Longevity Immortal City’s Luck, the Immortal Dynasty was sure to be reassured, as their own luck would remain unaffected – it was a perfect plan.
For Liang Sheng, this was also the best plan for him to stay in the Immortal City peacefully. The current layout was simply flawless.
After these twenty years, the Longevity Immortal City was no longer as chaotic as before and was slowly regaining its former prosperity.
