Chapter 469: Chapter 469: Gathering Information

Xun Tianhai was almost chosen to be the direct disciple of the current president, and given the president’s high standards, being selected by him indirectly proved Xun Tianhai’s strength.

But Xun Tianhai was single-minded, rigid and stubborn, determined to join the Unusual Affairs Management Office, so he devoted all his efforts to it and refused the president’s offer of apprenticeship, plunging headlong into the Unusual Affairs Management.

Over the years, his fame within Xuanmen had grown tremendously, and nowadays there are few with better qualifications than him.

Especially since Xun Tianhai had become the director of the office, he was a figure his peers could only look up to.

He normally stayed out of the forum squabbles and didn’t post or reply on the forum. His first time taking a side, he strongly praised Jiangli.

The people on the forum were somewhat puzzled by his stance.

However, Xun Tianhai rarely complimented anyone, so the fact that he praised Jiangli and even claimed that Jiangli was more capable than himself confirmed that the Jiaoyang Temple’s Abbot had some real skills to some extent.

The ones who were previously quite vocal suddenly didn’t know what to say.

After seeing Xun Tianhai step in, some of the younger members directly left the thread, not daring to say a word.

Once they left, the fans who were there for Jiangli began to celebrate wildly, flocking to Xun Tianhai’s comments to reply, boasting about him, and saying that Xun Tianhai had good judgment.

Xun Tianhai’s notifications wouldn’t stop popping up, receiving more messages than he ever had in his whole life.

It scared him into turning on ’Do Not Disturb’ mode.

Peace returned to his surroundings.

Xun Tianhai breathed a sigh of relief, but then his phone rang again—it was a message from Lao Bai.

Lao Bai: "WTF, bro, what’s the situation? Did you invite someone to the forum? A bunch of people are asking me about your relationship with Jiaoyang Temple, I’m so confused! Dude, what did you do?"

Xun Tianhai simply sent the thread to Lao Bai.

After seeing it, Lao Bai: "... Old Xun, what exactly is your relationship with the Abbot of Jiaoyang Temple?"

Xun Tianhai frowned: "What relationship could there be? She’s just very talented, and since I invited her in, I didn’t want to watch some idiots jumping around inside!"

Lao Bai: "... Really no other relationship?"

Xun Tianhai: "... She’s a young lady, what kind of relationship do you think I could have with her?"

Lao Bai: "Oh, that’s true, I was just saying you like Meng Hongyao."

Xun Tianhai: "..."

Realizing his mistake, Lao Bai quickly corrected, "No no, my bad! Let’s get back to the Abbot of Jiaoyang Temple, is she really that impressive?"

Xun Tianhai spoke earnestly: "Would I lie to you?"

Lao Bai said solemnly: "It’s the first time I’ve heard you compliment someone. It seems she’s quite skilled. I’m even tempted to meet her now."

Xun Tianhai cautioned deeply, "I advise you not to humiliate yourself."

Lao Bai was even more surprised.

He decided to contact his master, who was also the current president, Master Qu Lin.

Master Qu Lin had just finished a conference and was surprised to receive a call from Lao Bai, "What’s happened?"

This time, Master Qu Lin hadn’t taken Lao Bai with him but had asked him to take his place at the association.

So when Lao Bai suddenly called, Master Qu Lin became a bit worried.

Lao Bai hurriedly explained: "Nothing’s wrong, Master, I just wanted to ask if you’ve heard of Jiaoyang Temple?"

Massaging his forehead to alleviate his tiredness, Master Qu Lin paused, his expression turned serious, "Jiaoyang Temple? Why are you asking about that?"

"The current Abbot of Jiaoyang Temple, Jiangli, seems to know Tianhai. Tianhai praised her and also invited her to the forum. I just wanted to ask you, Master, if you are familiar with the current Jiaoyang Temple," joked Lao Bai. "It’s all about knowing the enemy and knowing yourself for undefeated battles. Suddenly there’s someone Tianhai praised, it can’t be ordinary, so I wanted to know more."
