章 30: Who Is This Girl?
Seeing that the two women did not understand the meaning behind his words, Ye Tian placed his hands behind his back and spoke leisurely.
"Breaking up the small groups of spirit master families across the land is naturally about dealing with them. Otherwise, it's just treating the symptoms, not the root cause."
"After the reshuffling, we can even bring some of the core young members of these spirit master families to Spirit City under the guise of training. I believe that once they hear Spirit Hall is directly overseeing the training, they'll eagerly sign up without much need for promotion."
"In this way, the strength of each spirit master family will be further weakened."
At this point, Hu Liena's eyes gleamed with excitement.
She picked up Ye Tian's words, saying, "With this, Spirit Hall can investigate and deal with any families engaged in illegal activities during the training period!"
Ye Tian's idea was undeniably comprehensive!
Spirit Hall could completely isolate the training spirit masters from the outside world, ensuring no communication between them.
In a sense, weren't these participants just hostages?
Even if the local families wanted to stir up trouble during the investigation, they would have to think twice! Otherwise, their entire family would be implicated.
"Sister Nana, you're really clever," Ye Tian smiled and said. "Regularly reshuffling positions and cleaning out corrupt families — after all this, the cancers within Spirit Hall will basically be purged."
"And the families controlling the power of Spirit Hall in each region will also be weakened."
After listening to Ye Tian's words, Bibi Dong was deeply shaken.
She had never considered that it was possible to dismantle the regional Spirit Hall families through such methods!
If this grand plan could be achieved, Spirit Hall's strength would become even more cohesive!
And the Pope's Palace's control over the branch halls across the land would undoubtedly be greatly enhanced.
With this, she could bypass the Elder's Hall entirely and issue orders directly to the various regions.
She would become a true ruler wielding complete power!
Bibi Dong took a deep breath.
Not being able to fully control Spirit Hall had always been a thorn in her side.
She never expected to one day see a glimmer of hope for resolving this issue.
Her chest heaved slightly — to be honest, she was too excited.
If it weren't for Ye Tian standing in front of her, she would have been tempted to implement his plan right away!
Ye Tian chuckled, "I didn't expect you two to be so concerned about Spirit Hall. Of course, after all this, we'll have greatly weakened the families. But if we want to completely dismantle them, we'll need to establish a system with proper mobility."
If fresh blood doesn't join Spirit Hall and the old members never retire from their positions,
Spirit Hall will end up stagnating.
Even if you clean out the dirt in the stagnant water, after a while, the filth will regenerate.
So, proper mobility is essential.
In this regard, the ancient Eastern dynasties created the imperial examination system early on.
It gave commoners a chance to rise.
Spirit Hall could actually learn from this.
No longer allowing, for instance, the branch hall master of Donghai City to always be someone from the Zhou family, working until retirement, and then passing the position to his son.
"Mobility?" Hu Liena's big eyes were filled with confusion again as she leaned in close to Ye Tian with a playful smile. "Can you explain, big brother?"
Ye Tian lightly tapped her forehead and said with a small sigh, "Sister Nana, you're so curious."
"Hehe, I just want to know," Hu Liena pouted cutely, putting her hands to her ears.
"You really want to know?" Ye Tian asked.
"Yes!" Hu Liena nodded enthusiastically, full of expectation.
"Not telling you."
Ye Tian waved his hand dismissively and turned to leave.
He still had to gather firewood to roast chicken, and he had no time to explain all these complicated theories.
The problems of Spirit Hall were Bibi Dong's headache, not his.
Watching Ye Tian walk away so nonchalantly, Hu Liena was stunned, casting a sheepish look at her teacher.
Bibi Dong smiled slightly, gesturing with her hand. "No need to rush. Just handling the reshuffling of the branch hall masters will keep us busy for months. There's no need to worry about this for now."
Hu Liena sighed, "Brother Ye Tian is so clever. Although he's not part of Spirit Hall's system, he understands Spirit Hall so thoroughly. A talent like him might not come along once in a thousand years."
Hearing this, Bibi Dong's eyes sparkled. She placed a hand on Hu Liena's shoulder, looking into her eyes:
"Have you thought it through? If you miss this chance, you might never find a husband as outstanding as Ye Tian again."
Hu Liena's face flushed red in an instant.
Her voice became a bit unnatural as she stuck out her tongue, saying, "But we've only known each other for three days."
Seeing the expression on Hu Liena's face, Bibi Dong smiled serenely and did not argue further.
However, in her heart, she knew the truth — the young girl's heart had probably already fallen for Ye Tian.
Bibi Dong walked straight to the recliner in the yard, sat down, and said softly, "Nana, write down what Ye Tian said today and send it to Spirit City when you get the chance. Have Elder Ghost draft a reshuffling list within a week."
Hu Liena's head shot up. "Are we really going to execute this now? Isn't it a bit rushed?"
Executing such a massive reshuffling plan would undoubtedly cause turmoil in Spirit Hall's branch halls.
The dark forces lurking across the continent might seize the opportunity to strike against Spirit Hall.
Moreover, the Elder's Hall wouldn't make it easy.
It was very likely that Grand Worshipper Qian Daoliu would oppose this plan.
Bibi Dong's eyes turned deep as she gazed into the distance.
"Time waits for no one. If problems arise, we'll deal with them."
As the Pope, she could sense the rising tension across the continent — in both the spirit master world and the two great empires.
If the ship of Spirit Hall wasn't repaired in time, it might sink before it even collided with other forces.
"Alright." Hu Liena nodded solemnly.
...
As the two spoke, down the road in the distance, Ye Tian walked over with a girl in a long blue-green dress, her hair a deep blue.
The girl's features were as delicate as a painting, with a beauty that drew the gaze of the farm workers passing by.
Such a beautiful girl carrying a bundle of bamboo firewood on her back seemed rather out of place.
A farm woman, seeing the sweat on the girl's forehead, stepped forward to help, but the girl politely declined.
Seeing this from afar, a trace of jealousy appeared on Hu Liena's face.
When Ye Tian approached, Hu Liena's tone was filled with obvious envy:
"Brother, you're in a good mood. You went to get some firewood and brought back a beautiful sister."
After saying that, she pouted and walked silently to Bibi Dong's side, full of grievance.
Bibi Dong watched this scene calmly, without a word.
Ye Tian glanced at the girl beside him and shrugged helplessly. "I didn't intend to."
The deep blue-haired girl placed the firewood on the ground, wiped the sweat from her brow, and approached Hu Liena with a smile.
"Little sister, you've misunderstood. It was my idea."
"Your idea?" Hu Liena eyed the blue-haired girl warily.
Was she issuing a challenge?
Suddenly, Hu Liena's heart trembled.
Maybe Ye Tian had known this girl long before?
Perhaps she was the third wheel here...
At this thought, Hu Liena's breathing became uneven.
She didn't dare to continue thinking and even felt like crying.
Brother Ye Tian, I clearly…
I clearly like you so much...
If they had been together before, should I really let him go?
Feelings of struggle, hesitation, disappointment, and jealousy overwhelmed her,
leaving her feeling lost and shrinking into herself.
Seeing Hu Liena's despondent expression, Ye Tian smiled in surprise and came to her side, placing a hand on her shoulder. He leaned down and asked softly,
"Little sister, what are you thinking? We just met a few days ago!"
