Chu Ming looked at Shen Luoyan with a complicated expression, not knowing how to express his emotions for a moment.
"It's not just me. Sisters Zhao Min, Wanqing, and even Ling'er, who has always been the most delicate, are all like me. Everyone is afraid of falling behind."
"The time is still long, the days are still long, there is no need to work so hard, no one of you will be left behind."
Hearing Chu Ming's solemn assurance and looking at his serious expression, Shen Luoyan couldn't help but burst into laughter.
"Master, are you planning to make another oath?"
Chu Ming was about to speak, but Shen Luoyan covered his mouth. Feeling the softness of the other person's palm, his heart couldn't help but tremble.
Before he could take any further action, Zhong Ling's voice came from outside the house, "Sister Luoyan, Ling'er is here."
After saying that, Ling'er was the first to rush in. Fortunately, Chu Ming was a strong Martial Emperor. The two of them separated like lightning, and outsiders couldn't see anything unusual at all.
"Young master is here too. It just so happens that Ling'er wants to discuss something with you."
"What's wrong with Ling'er?"
Looking at Zhong Ling's big and smart eyes, Chu Ming responded with a guilty conscience.
"I heard that the master's next plan is to find the hidden veins in the core area of Gushe Mountain. I want to participate."
"Participate? How to participate? Tell me your specific ideas."
With Chu Ming's encouragement, Zhong Ling sat down on Shen Luoyan's bed. Only then did she realize that something was wrong.
"Why is the young master in Sister Luoyan's bedroom?"
"Your sister Luoyan fainted from practicing the "Manghuang Jue" too much. Fortunately, I passed by and I just put her on the bed."
Zhong Ling naturally knew the pain of practicing "The Wilderness Jue" and hurriedly asked with concern, "Sister Luoyan, are you okay?"
"It's okay, I'm just a little impatient. Just take a rest and it'll be fine. It's nothing serious."
Shen Luoyan glanced at Chu Ming angrily, and quickly comforted Zhong Ling, who was a little anxious.
"Ling'er is also practicing the "Manghuang Jue", so he naturally knows what it's like. Sister Luoyan can't rush in!"
Zhong Ling warned Shen Luoyan solemnly, fearing that she would act rashly again.
"Linger, let's talk about your thoughts in detail."
Zhong Ling finally woke up and looked at Chu Ming with some embarrassment.
"My joining the search team naturally has my advantages, because I am a beast master."
Seeing the proud expression on Zhong Ling's face, Chu Ming wanted to laugh, but he still couldn't help but look like he was listening carefully.
"Xiaolan and Xiaobai can also help. One of them is the Martial Emperor and the other is the Martial King. They will not suffer even if they reach the core area of Gushe Mountain."
"And it is easier for spirit beasts to find hidden places, which is very helpful for exploring hidden veins."
Seeing that Chu Ming was still expressionless, Zhong Ling became a little anxious.
"I don't need to explain the role of a beast master in getting deep into the core area of Gushe Mountain."
"You were among the first batch of people to enter the core area."
Chu Ming didn't plan to tease her anymore, so he told her the truth first. Zhong Ling naturally knew that Chu Ming was teasing her just now.
"Master, how bad are you!"
These ambiguous words became simpler when they came out of Zhong Ling's mouth.
Just when Shengxian Valley was in a peaceful atmosphere, Taiyi Sect also received the news that all the sects in the Exile Domain were destroyed.
"Among the sects in the Exile Domain, only the Zhongding Sect has some value. There is an Earth Fire branch there. I originally wanted to wait until the spiritual energy revived and find any reason to take it. As for the other sects, they are of great value to me, Taiyi Sect. Nothing of value."
"The great elder is right. In a barren land, there is nothing worth paying attention to, as long as the black-clothed sect doesn't cause trouble."
The elders of the Taiyi Sect in the main hall all have a contemptuous attitude towards the Northeast Region.
"We haven't found any traces of the black-clothed martial kings yet. If we continue like this, we're afraid of being held accountable by the Boundless Holy Land!"
"Isn't there a mysterious force currently operating in the Exile Domain? Why don't we follow the trend and eradicate them as black-clothed sects, and by the way, we can also give an account of the Infinite Holy Land."
The leader of the Taiyi Sect looked at the Sixth Elder dissatisfied.
"Stop your cleverness. Everyone knows that the nameplate of the Black Sect's disciple left in the Exile Domain this time is a clue deliberately left by the undercover agent sent by the Infinite Holy Land."
Although the sect leader was talking about the undercover black-clothed sect, everyone understood what he meant.
Even hostile Holy Lands have the ability to infiltrate, not to mention that Taiyi Sect is a subordinate sect of Wuliang Holy Land.
The Sixth Elder also suddenly realized at this time, and hurriedly apologized and said, "I was not thoughtful enough. Please forgive me, Master."
The sect master waved his hand to him, and the sixth elder sat back in his chair with relief, which showed the power of the sect master of Taiyi Sect.
"Don't underestimate this force in the Exile Domain. A few days ago, the Supreme Elder discovered the aura of a strange Martial Emperor, and through his divine sense detection, he discovered that it was actually a person from Guanghan Palace."
"Guanghan Palace? How did the powerful Emperor Wu come to this barren place? Does the sect master suspect that this force belongs to Guanghan Palace?"
The great elder was obviously shocked by the news.
"What is it about this barren land that can attract so many powerful forces?"
The second elder also had a puzzled look on his face.
"Although the Black Clothes Sect has thousands of mother Gu insects, it is not difficult to find from the activities of capturing these disciples that some of their disciples intend to subvert the political power of the three countries in the Exile Domain, and another group of people are surveying the terrain of Gushe Mountain. There’s nothing special about it.”
Elder Xi was responsible for intelligence work and accurately judged the mission of the Black Clothes Sect in the Northeast Region.
"As for Guanghan Palace, we have too little information. If the sect master hadn't mentioned it, we wouldn't even know about their existence, so we can't judge the other party's intentions."
Elder Xi is shorter in stature, and his appearance has nothing to do with a wise man, but his eyes flash with cunning light. Anyone who knows the inside story knows that Elder Xi is the brains of Taiyi Sect and the most trusted confidant of the sect leader.
"What did Elder Xi have in mind?"
"Sect Master, I think the Exile Domain should not involve too much of our energy. Just as the Great Elder said just now, that barren land, that is, the Earth Fire Branch, still has some value. Now the age of great struggle is coming soon, Yu Heng Zong is our biggest enemy.”
"And the Yuheng Sect has been making a lot of moves recently, so we have to guard against it."
"Every time of great conflict is a huge opportunity for us warriors, and it is also a disaster for many sects. After every spiritual energy tide, I don't know how many high-level sects have been reduced to low-level sects and are lingering."
The leader of the Taiyi Sect said with some emotion.
"Yes, in the age of great strife, there is never a shortage of geniuses. What is lacking is resources. Not only must we keep our original resources, but we must also find ways to obtain more resources. As long as any sect is exposed, it will be defeated by other sects. carve up.”
Taiyi Sect has a complete inheritance, and naturally knows the cruelty of the battles between sects in Shanhai Continent after the arrival of the spiritual energy tide.
"That's why we should put more energy into the Yuheng Sect. No matter how the mysterious forces in the Exile Domain develop, they can't escape the category of other sects. Po Po Tian is an eighth-grade sect. ”
Elder Xi still insisted on his opinion and believed that the Exile Domain did not need too much attention. Under normal circumstances, the space for the development of this force was limited.
The other elders of the Taiyi Sect also agreed with his judgment, and everyone felt that they should put all their energy into the Yuheng Sect.
"How should we solve the problem of the Black Clothes Sect? If we don't give Wuliang Holy Land an explanation, I'm afraid it won't be appropriate."
The sect leader is still more concerned about the group of martial kings who disappeared from the Black Clothes Sect.
"We can prepare some generous gifts and give them to the elders who are familiar with Wuliang Holy Land, and ask them to help us say a few words of kindness. The era of great conflict is coming, and everyone's focus is on this. I believe that Holy Land will be no exception. In this special At this time, we will not be punished for this trivial matter."
Elder Xi confidently put forward his suggestions and judgments.
"Yes, the next spiritual energy tide is less than twenty years away. The war between the Infinite Holy Land and the Black Clothes Sect is about to break out. In this sensitive period, we will never be punished for this trivial matter. I agree with Elder Xi. suggestion."
The Second Elder was the first to stand up clearly in support of Elder Xi. Others also felt that it made sense, and everyone agreed.
Soon the focus of the meeting turned to the direction of the Yuheng Sect. The escaped Black-clothed Sect Martial King and the mysterious forces in the Exile Domain were not in the core interests of the Taiyi Sect at all.
This scene that happened in Taiyi Sect was all within Chu Ming's expectation, which was why he dared to unify the Northeast Region.
As a third-grade sect, Taiyi Sect is like an elephant. Chu Ming and the others are like ants now. How can an elephant see an ant in its eyes?
The gap between the two sides is really too big, they are not on the same level at all.
Even so, Chu Ming still carefully concealed his absolute strength in secret and supported the Zhou family and Liu family to control the courts of the other two countries.
Zhuge Shenhou was personally certified by the elders of Taiyi Sect. If he stayed in Song Kingdom for the time being, there was no need to worry about his identity being exposed.
Chu Ming had planned every step from the beginning, but at Zhao Min's reminder, he adjusted part of his strategy and promoted local forces to control the court.
Now everything is really as he predicted at the beginning, the Northeast Territory has been completely captured by him.
Now Chu Ming convened everyone to discuss the members of the search team.
Xu Zhu became the most uncontroversial candidate, and Zhong Ling was also successfully selected because of his status as a beast master. Because Chu Ming once said that the size of the team is only five people, so now there are only three places left.
While everyone was thinking hard about how to compete for the remaining spots, Chu Ming coughed a few times and said, "Since there are many Martial Kings and even Martial Emperor monsters that need to be collected along the way, I must go with the team."
These are rare ingredients, and everyone here is a beneficiary. Naturally, no one objects to Chu Ming's proposal.
