According to Bai Ye's understanding, the head of the Tianfu North Gate, Shentu, was originally the one with the highest cultivation among the elders in charge of Tianfu that generation. He was also a junior brother of the head of Tianfu that generation. He could be said to be a legendary figure.
During the period when Master Shentu was in charge, the North Gate of Tianfu has always been the most powerful of the four direct gates of Tianfu. The other branches cannot compare with the North Gate of Tianfu at all.
But after the death of Sect Leader Shentu, the North Gate of Tianfu began to decline, and each generation became worse than the previous one, until now it has almost been squeezed out of the Tianfu forces.
"Yes, this matter is indeed related to Sect Leader Shentu." Beitang Yue also confirmed Bai Ye's guess at this time, and continued, "I once told you that when Sect Leader Shentu was in charge, our Tianfu North Gate was the first affiliated force of Tianfu."
"Then do you know why the North Gate of Tianfu declined so quickly after Sect Leader Shentu left?" Beitang Yue asked Bai Ye and Yun Fang. He saw that the latter had done some research on Sect Leader Shentu Su.
"Isn't it because they can't recruit outstanding disciples?" Yun Fang analyzed the information he had collected and concluded that the decline of Tianfu North Gate was mainly due to the lack of replacement talents.
But Beitang Yue's question made Yun Fang feel that things might not be that simple. Could there be other reasons for the decline of Tianfu North Gate
"Grandpa, Senior Shentu did not leave any inheritance with the stone, nor did he leave any forces for the North Gate to rely on?" Bai Ye had a different opinion.
"Why do you think so?" Beitang Yue asked with interest.
"As the saying goes, even a rotten ship has three-inch nails. If Senior Shentu is really as powerful as the rumors say, then if he wanted to pave a way out for Tianfu North Gate, no matter how useless the disciples of Tianfu North Gate are, they would not have fallen so badly." Bai Ye responded.
"But since Senior Shentu wanted to establish the North Gate of Tianfu, why didn't he leave any inheritance?" Yun Fang raised a question, and the question he raised was actually also Bai Ye's question.
"I have always been confused about this." Beitang Yue sighed, "It is said that before Master Shentu passed away, he specifically told his close friends not to help the declining Tianfu North Gate."
"But I also heard that Sect Leader Shentu asked his senior brother, the Sect Leader of Tianfu, to issue a Sect Leader Succession Order no matter what, so that the North Gate of Tianfu could survive forever."
When Bai Ye heard this, he was full of doubts, because Senior Shen Tu Su clearly intended to let the North Gate of Tianfu decline, but he also wanted the North Gate of Tianfu to survive forever. This approach was truly contradictory and conflicting.
"Didn't he tell his friends why?" Bai Ye couldn't help but ask.
"No, even his head brother didn't know his intention. But now I think about it, maybe it was for you, or for you guys." Beitang Yue was not too sure.
"We?" Bai Ye and Yun Fang were a little confused, especially Yun Fang. He didn't know the previous situation, so he was even more confused, but Beitang Yue didn't elaborate on the issue.
"No matter what Master Shentu did, what is certain is that he left something behind. However, his things were not left in the north gate of our Tianfu, but in the White Tiger Sect." Beitang Yue said.
"White Tiger Sect? It's more powerful than the Xuanwu Sect. It's said to be able to compete with the other three direct branches. The White Tiger Sect is the top force in Tianfu?" Bai Ye was a little surprised.
