The second junior brother, Ding Mian, would be known as the head of the Thirteen Taibos in the future.
Because Zuo Lengchan was not included in the Thirteen Taibao, he automatically became the head of the Thirteen Taibao.
The others glanced at Ding Mian, turned around and left without saying anything else.
All of them had been assigned areas just now, except Ding Mian. Now it seems that they should have other tasks.
Moreover, Zuo Lengchan also named Ding Mian to stay. Obviously, this task is not suitable for them to listen here.
Soon.
Zuo Lengchan and Ding Mian were the only two people left in the hall.
Zuo Lengchan was not polite and said directly.
"Junior brother, I need you to do something."
"Senior brother, please tell me."
Ding Mianyan spoke concisely and comprehensively.
"I want you to go after Zheng Jie, the poisonous Shura!"
"Poison-hand Shura Zheng Ai?"
Ding Mian frowned slightly.
This is a well-known underworld master in the world. He is also a poisoner and a Shura. This shows what his usual style of doing is.
Poison-hand Shura Zheng Jie is very powerful. There are rumors in the world that he once fought with the famous first-class soul-chasing sword master Liu Yu. After the two exchanged more than 300 moves, Zheng Jie successfully killed Liu Yu!
This battle greatly increased Zheng Jie's reputation and he became one of the top figures in the underworld.
Ding Mian had no idea about Zuo Lengchan arranging such a strong man for him. Zheng Jie was very strong, but he felt that he was even stronger!
If the two of them fight, Ding Mian is even confident that he can take down Zheng Jie's head within two hundred moves!
But the problem is...
"Isn't he one of ours?"
That's right.
This poisonous Shura Zheng Jie is actually from their Songshan sect.
In the past twenty years, Zuo Lengchan not only trained thirteen first-class masters including Ding Mian internally, but also secretly recruited a large number of underworld masters externally.
Zuo Lengchan's goal is not just to unify the Five Mountains Sword Sect. This is just a preliminary plan. Later, he also has the ultimate goal of annihilating the Sun and Moon Demon Sect, crushing Shaolin Wudang, and becoming a true martial arts overlord!
If you want to unify the Five Mountains Sword Sect, you can just rely on Ding Mian and others, but if you want to achieve the subsequent goals, these forces will be somewhat dwarfed by comparison.
Even if he completely integrated the strength of the Five Mountains Sword Sect, that would still not be enough!
Don’t forget, back then, the Five Mountains Sword Sect and the Sun and Moon Demon Sect fought hard twice, but didn’t they end up with a lose-lose outcome?
Even in terms of hard power, they are a little worse than the Sun and Moon Demon Sect. If they had not used some small tricks and some support from Shaolin Wudang, they would have been solved by the Sun and Moon Demon Sect long ago.
Today, the Sun Moon Demon Sect, under the leadership of Dongfang Bubai, who is recognized as the best master in the world, is even more powerful than it was twenty years ago, and the Five Mountains Sword Sect, except for the Songshan Sect, has regained its vitality and even become stronger. Compared with the Five Mountains Sword Sect twenty years ago, there is actually a big gap in strength.
Apart from anything else, the Huashan Sect of twenty years ago is far from comparable to the Songshan Sect of today.
Not to mention the current Songshan Sect, even the Songshan Sect that will be at its peak a few years later cannot compare to the Huashan Sect in its heyday.
It's not that the Songshan Sect's cultivation resources are insufficient. In fact, after all these years of secret plundering, the Songshan Sect's internal resources have become so abundant that they are by no means weaker than the Huashan Sect back then.
But the reason why the Huashan Sect was so powerful back then was not only because of its training resources, but more importantly because of the many talented people that Huashan sent out in that generation.
Nowadays, there are extremely rare masters in the entire world. There are three Huashan sects, and there are twenty or thirty first-class masters. Their power is so great that it can rival Shaolin Wudang!
It is said that it is boiling oil in a fierce fire and prospering like a rainbow, but that is not the case.
As for today's Songshan Sect, except for his leader, who is a top master, only Ding Mian and other thirteen others are first-rate masters, and even four of them, Bu Chen, Sha Tianjiang, Deng Bagong and Gao Kexin, are from the outer sect.
They are somewhat similar to Lauderno in that they are both art masters, so strictly speaking, there are only nine first-class masters trained by their Songshan sect.
At the stage of being a first-class master, it is no longer possible to rely solely on the accumulation of cultivation resources - at least not the cultivation resources possessed by the Songshan Sect.
I heard that Shaolin's Great Returning Pill seems to be OK, but it is said that they have lost the refining method of this thing long ago. Nowadays, one less pill is used. It is not a resource that ordinary people can have access to.
If a normal person wants to become a first-class master, in addition to ordinary training resources, the most important thing is to have enough talent!
Ding Mian and others are talented, but only nine of them of that generation are talented. As for the next generation... even if they are talented, it will be twenty or thirty years later.
Zuo Lengchan couldn't wait that long.
In order to achieve his goals, Zuo Lengchan, who has always used unscrupulous means, naturally turned his attention outside.
This is how Bu Chen and others came into his sight, but there are not many first-class masters in the world, and even fewer like Bu Chen and others can barely be accepted as his disciples!
Let's put it this way, cultivation requires resources. These people who are from the world of martial arts do not have enough cultivation resources. What should they do if they want to obtain cultivation resources?
Serious work?
hehe.
Do you think you can obtain enough resources to cultivate to a first-class level in this way?
That's obviously impossible.
For the vast majority of casual cultivators, if they want to obtain enough cultivation resources, they have no choice but to grab them!
This is also the reason why most of the first-class masters who have emerged in the world are underworld strongmen.
In fact, Bu Chen and others are similar. They also rely on robbing almost all their cultivation resources, but they do it more secretly and few people know about it.
Back to business.
The Songshan Sect cannot train so many first-class masters on its own, so it can only look for them outside.
Bu Chen and others are in the same category, as is Zheng Gai, the poisonous-hand Shura.
But compared to Bu Chen and others, what the poisonous Shura Zheng Gai did was too outrageous and resentful. The Songshan Sect was not a Shaolin Temple. They could put down the butcher's knife and become a Buddha immediately, so they could only be raised outside.
Currently, only a few people within the Songshan Sect know about this matter.
Ding Mian is one of them.
He knew that Zheng Jie, the poisonous hand Shura, was one of theirs.
"I know."
Zuo Lengchan glanced at Ding Mian lightly.
"What I mean is, let you hunt him down, and then chase him to the boundaries of Huayin County."
"Huayin County?"
Ding Mian's eyes flickered slightly, and he vaguely understood something.
Just listen to Zuo Lengchan continue to say.
"That's right, when you get to the border of Huayin County, you go find Yue Buqun and hold him for one night. You don't have to worry about the rest."
There was a hint of coldness in his words.
Yue Buqun made him suffer a loss. If he can't attack the Huashan sect now, why can't he attack a small family?
