Chapter 1701 We Must Take Advantage of the People's Hearts

????Seeing Liu Qingming leave with a furious look on his face, Lu Jiang smiled and said behind him, "Master Liu, have a safe journey!"

??Crackling.

??Liu Qingming clenched his fists, and a pair of pupils burst out with strong hatred and murderous intent.

??How could this be a congratulation?

??It was simply a curse on himself!

??However, this City Lord's Mansion was Lu Moli's place after all. If he made trouble here, he would not care, but what about Wei Zelong?

??So, Liu Qingming still held back in the end.

??Ye Chen's face turned slightly cold. Liu Qingming's self-restraint has always been very high. Besides, with his personality, he would never be so angry unless he really encountered something big.

??So, what happened to make him so angry?

??After the two of them walked out of the City Lord's Mansion, Ye Chen couldn't help but ask, "Dean, what did Lu Moli talk to you about in there?"

??"Hmph, he wants to take the lead himself and merge our Cang Lu Academy with Fu Chen Academy, with him as the dean and Feng Zhen and I as vice deans. The reason he gave is that although there are many alchemists in the Heavenly Court, they are too scattered, which is not conducive to cohesion, so he wants this..."

??Liu Qingming gritted his teeth, and his pupils were full of hatred.

??Obviously, when discussing matters inside, Lu Moli's words were not so polite!

??Ye Chen heard this, and a hint of understanding flashed in his eyes.

??No wonder Liu Qingming was so angry!

??Who wouldn't be annoyed if this happened to him?

??Want to be the dean himself and merge Fu Chen Academy and Cang Lu Academy.

??Let's not talk about anything else, just ask, what is his basis?

??Relying on his strong strength?

??So, he has to directly lead the merger of the two major forces?

??Then he reaps the benefits?

??“Shameless indeed!”

??Ye Chen narrowed his eyes, his coldness suddenly revealed, “Lu Moli obviously doesn’t want to put in any effort, but he has the two largest alchemy academies in his hands. It’s really a good idea! What does Feng Zhen say?”

??“Feng Zhen? Haha, they are in the same boat, so they will naturally support him with all their strength!”

??Liu Qingming looked down on him, “He is like this, handing over the foundation to others. Is he worthy of the predecessors who worked hard in the past? This academy has been developed by several generations before it was finally passed on to us!”

??“He is also anxious.”

??Ye Chen sneered, “Now, our Cang Lu Academy is about to surpass Fu Chen Academy, of course he is very anxious. If Fu Chen Academy is officially surpassed by our Cang Lu Academy under his rule, then he will be nailed to the pillar of shame directly. Even the history books will record this heavy stroke. He can’t afford to lose this person!”

??“Not bad.”

??Liu Qingming nodded, he also thought so.

??It is precisely because Feng Zhen cannot afford to lose this person that he desperately wants to promote the merger of the two colleges!

??After the merger, there will be no distinction between you and me.

??But he can rely on Lu Moli to rise again!

??When that time comes, it will be a disaster for many geniuses and teachers of the original Cang Lu College!

??"Dean, what is Lu Moli's attitude?"

??Ye Chen asked again. He knew very well that the two colleges must not be merged.

??"The attitude is very tough, but I am tougher than him!"

??Liu Qingming sneered, "I put it down directly. Unless they can step on my body, no one can touch my Cang Lu College!"

??These words are said firmly!

??And Liu Qingming has no reason to merge.

??If he can make the college surpass Fuchen College under his rule, it will definitely be a great achievement!

??Liu Qingming's lifelong wish is to do this, so he will not let go no matter what.

??“This time, we have offended Lu Moli, but it doesn’t matter. My relationship with him was not good to begin with. From now on... the pressure that our Cang Lu Academy will face will suddenly double!”

??Liu Qingming sighed and said, “Xiaolong, I am old, so I am not worried about this kind of thing. The main thing is that I am afraid of you! You clearly have a bright future. What if it is delayed by our academy?”

??Ye Chen felt warm in his heart. The pressure Liu Qingming faced was unprecedented.

??But not only did he not complain about his current situation, but he turned around to comfort himself!

??This touched Ye Chen very much.

??“Don’t worry, Dean, even you are not afraid of this pressure, how can I be afraid!”

??Ye Chen said solemnly, “Although Lu Moli is powerful in the entire Heavenly Court, he is not the only one who has the final say. If we want to develop in the long run, strength is one aspect, but the people’s hearts are also important!”

??“People’s hearts?”

??Liu Qingming frowned, as if thinking.

??“Yes, people’s hearts!”

??Ye Chen said word by word, “Our Canglu Academy is supported by the people. When they faced my challenge, they first asked someone to pretend to be ‘Ye Chen’, and then ‘Ye Chen’ accepted the challenge and became angry on the stage and wanted to kill me. These two things have exposed the way they behave in Fu Chen Academy!”

??“Yes, what you said is indeed true.”

??Liu Qingming was thoughtful, "In recent years, there have been many geniuses joining our academy. The reason they gave was that they couldn't stand their style of doing things and felt that they did things by any means and were a bit shameless!"

??"The popularity of our Canglu Academy is better than ever before. We must seize this point and make great strides! Continue to challenge the status of Fuchen Academy! When one day, our own comprehensive strength completely surpasses the other party, it will not be Lu Moli who has the final say. The people of the entire Heavenly Court will support it. He alone cannot turn the tide!"

??Ye Chen obviously analyzed all of this very thoroughly.

??After listening to this, Liu Qingming's eyes lit up, "Yes, Xiaolong, it seems that you have indeed done a lot of research on these!"

??Ye Chen smiled lightly and said, "It's not worth mentioning. I just thought about it casually in my spare time."

??"Okay, when I go back this time, I plan to organize several alchemist conferences and invite alchemists from all over the world to participate. When that time comes, it will be like roasting the Fuchen Academy on the fire! If they come, you will crush them. If they don't come, their reputation will fall to the bottom and be labeled as "not daring to fight". As one grows, the other grows, and the reputation of our Canglu Academy will grow bigger and bigger!"

??Liu Qingming rubbed his hands, obviously very happy.

??This time, I will vent all the humiliation I suffered in the City Lord's Mansion.

??Since I can't target you, Lu Moli, then I will target Fuchen Academy!

??When Fuchen Academy is completely surpassed by my Canglu Academy, your usual conspiracy tricks will not be worth mentioning!

??Just like that, the two flew all the way back to the academy.

??Ye Chen came to the courtyard where he lived and found Su Muyue standing outside waiting for him.
