Previously, when all the cultivators had talked about Ye Futian becoming the Pavilion Master of Dongyuan Pavilion, they had all said that he would need a transition period. Using this as an excuse, the forces of Dongyuan Pavilion had continued to "assist" him. In reality, they were taking control.
Even Ye Futian understood that Chang Dongqing would have this idea.
Right now, the various forces controlled Dongyuan Pavilion, and so the power of his words was limited. This would particularly be true if the forces of the pavilion allied with the Donglin Clan. In that case, they would have even more influence.
If Ye Futian became Pavilion Master, any of the various forces would have an easy time controlling him.
At least, that's what they thought.
Ye Futian did not know whether or not Emperor Heilian and Chang Dongqing would think like this, but it didn't matter.
