"Sect Master, my subordinates have sent several Tianyuan cultivators to sneak into Wanjian Island quietly, and have also contacted Shan Chengfeng. Deacon Li Zhen will inform you of the specific situation."
Li Chengdao bowed briefly, and then nodded to the man behind him. The middle-aged man in black took a few steps forward and gave a big salute to Zhou Yuanzheng.
This person is Li Zhen, the deacon of Wenfeng Hall, who is at the sixth level of Tianyuan. Although he is a deacon, his status is equivalent to the deputy hall master, second only to Li Chengdao in Wenfeng Hall. He planned the assassination of Sima Ling'er.
However, the matter failed, and all the people who inquired about the information were killed, and the undercover agents around Ling'er were also lost. Li Chengdao was furious and reprimanded him severely, but in the end he did not impose heavy blame, but once again instigated the counterattack. Feng's mission was given to him, so that he could make meritorious deeds.
Li Zhen finally lived up to his trust and personally sneaked into Wanjian Island to contact Shan Chengfeng. He was flatly rejected at first, but Li Zhen relied on his ability to speak with sincerity, reason and emotion, state his interests, and promised that if the matter was successful, Shan Chengfeng would take Qiang Xian's place. Later, he became the head of Wanjian Sect.
He also promised that Xuanfu Sect would provide a large amount of financial and manpower assistance. Once the enemy camp is driven back, the islands belonging to the original five sects will also be managed by Wanjianmen.
This condition is not unattractive. In addition, Shan Chengfeng has lost Qiangxian's trust and his future is bleak. Finally, he finally nodded and decided to give it a try and strive for a good future.
Of course, Xuanfu Sect also has conditions, but there is only one, that is, Wanjianmen must leave Tongzhou Trading Company and the entire sect must join Xuanfu Sect.
Li Zhen reported the incident truthfully, focusing on how he persuaded Shan Chengfeng, how he adhered to his principles, and how he asked the entire Wanjian Sect to join the Xuanfu Sect and show off their talents as much as possible.
Sure enough, Zhou Yuanzheng praised him greatly after hearing this, and told Li Zhen to handle the matter with full authority. He should take action as soon as possible to avoid long nights and dreams. There will be a heavy reward after the work is completed.
Being praised personally by the sect master, Li Zhen's blood was boiling with enthusiasm, and he thanked him profusely, patting his chest and promising that he would never disgrace his orders.
After Li Zhen exited the hall, Master Tianyang said sternly: "Elder Geshu, this matter is important. Li Zhen is not strong enough to complete it independently. You should quickly arrange the people to help him accomplish this matter. If necessary, you can go to Wanjian in person." Island, we must help Shan become a peak and rise to the top."
"Don't worry, Sect Master, I will do my best to handle this matter."
"Okay. Elder Li, you stay in the sect for now. As for the mine, don't get involved. I will arrange for other elders to take care of it first. Also, Elder Geshu, please quickly dispatch one thousand black-armored guards and five thousand Elite disciples, go to Cang Beast Mountain immediately and make sure that the spirit stone mine is safe!"
"My subordinates understand. We are just transferring a large number of disciples, so the safety of the mountain gate..." Originally, a large number of sect manpower was transferred to the fine copper mine, but now a group of elites are being sent to the Lingshi Mine. Ge Shuteng is worried that the mountain gate is empty.
"Haha, I have my own arrangements for this matter. The most important things for our sect right now are the two mines of spirit stone and fine copper. These two places are the lifeblood of our sect. We must not take it lightly." Master Tianyang said with a smile.
"In this case, my subordinates will feel at ease."
In the main hall of Wanjian Island, everyone was silent.
The disciple responsible for inviting Shan Chengfeng to attend the meeting reported back, saying that Deputy Sect Master Shan had made a mistake in his practice and was in retreat to heal his injuries. It was not appropriate to move lightly at this moment, and asked the sect leader to allow him to continue to retreat.
"Huh, it's a good idea if he doesn't come." Master Wan Jian didn't get angry when he heard this, but in his heart he wished he wouldn't come. He was not ready yet, and it was not a good time to intensify the conflict.
In fact, the order of the merchant bank to recruit three thousand disciples of Wanjian Sect was just a sham. The purpose was to test the waters. By then, someone in the sect would definitely jump out to oppose it, and Qiang Xian could take the opportunity to dig out all the hostile forces. Then catch them all in one fell swoop.
Since Shan Chengfeng did not arrive, Qiang Xian announced that the discussion would be held another day. Although everyone was dissatisfied, they had no choice but to leave the hall temporarily.
At this time, except Qiang Xia, only four people remained in the hall, and these four people were Qiang Xian's confidants.
"Father, what about the transfer of disciples?" Qiang Xia asked with an anxious look on her face when she saw that everyone else had withdrawn and she was the only one left.
"Xia'er, don't worry. My father has his own arrangements. Elder Kuang, you and the other four will act according to the previous plan and keep an eye on them first. Don't make a mistake. When the time is right, you must achieve success in one fell swoop."
"I obey!" The four of them took the order and left.
"Father!" Qiang Xia opened her mouth to ask again, but Qiang Xian waved his hand and closed his eyes tiredly.
Civil strife is about to break out in Wanjian Island. This was originally a matter between Qiang Xian and Shan Chengfeng, but now it seems that it has evolved into another round of competition between Tongzhou Trading Company and Xuanfu Sect.
In an inn in Xicheng, Anping, Zhou Yang looked worried. Ling'er showed no sign of waking up. It was already the twenty-eighth day. If he didn't wake up after a month, there would be trouble.
"Little Yangzi, she looks very good. Maybe she will wake up in a few days. Don't worry too much." Xing'er saw Zhou Yang's expression was gloomy and she felt uncomfortable, so she comforted her.
"Oh, I hope so." Zhou Yang sighed. There was nothing he could do but leave it to fate.
Two days later, Zhou Yang's face was full of gloom, Pu Zheng's face was even more ugly, and Xing'er's pretty face was even a little pale. The three of them had been suffering for two hours around Ling'er on the bed. Today is exactly one month, but she hasn't woken up yet!
Zhou Yang no longer hesitated, picked up Ling'er and walked out of the inn in a few steps, then disappeared on the street in a flash.
Pu Zheng was stunned at first, and looked at Xing'er with bitterness on their faces. Pu Zheng left the guest room and chased Zhou Yang with Xing'er.
On the third floor of Xingshan Hall, Mr. Fei had a solemn look on his face, and there was another person standing next to him, who turned out to be doctor Qin Ming!
He didn't know when he arrived at Xingshan Hall. At this time, he was frowning and thinking hard.
Zhou Yang stood aside, feeling panicked. Looking at the expressions of the two of them, he was also helpless and helpless about Ling'er's situation.
"Judging from her pulse, the breath in her body is stable and there is nothing abnormal, and her consciousness is much stronger than before. It's just that she hasn't woken up for a long time, which really puzzles me!" Mr. Fei frowned.
"Junior also finds it strange that her consciousness seems to be sleeping, and the part corroded by silkworm poison has recovered a lot. It stands to reason that she should wake up. However, this sleeping state of consciousness is helpful for restoring memory. It's good." Qin Ming said.
"The consciousness is sleeping! Then when will she wake up?" Zhou Yang asked eagerly.
"This..." Mr. Fei was also in trouble and looked at Qin Ming.
Qin Ming was invited by him with great difficulty, and he came here specifically to diagnose and treat Ling'er.
This shows how much he attaches importance to Zhou Yang. Of course, on the other hand, he was not completely sure about Ling'er's consciousness recovery, so he invited Jiang Laogui's disciple over.
The two were very troubled by Ling'er's situation. They had never seen anything like it.
"Fellow Daoist Zhou, don't worry too much. Her consciousness is getting better, but she doesn't know when she will wake up. Although the parts corroded by silkworm poison have been repaired, the loss of part of her memory is inevitable. You have to be mentally prepared."
Before Zhou Yang could answer, Fei Lao and Qin Ming's expressions suddenly changed, and an overwhelming coercion enveloped the entire Xingshan Hall. Zhou Yang felt as if he was carrying a huge boulder weighing ten thousand kilograms, unable to move, and he couldn't help but turn pale in horror.
This is definitely the pressure of a golden elixir master!
How could a master of golden elixirs come to the small Xingshan Hall? Could it be that the big boss of Tongzhou Trading Company has arrived? What is he doing here again?
"A bunch of waste!"
While the three of them were in shock, a gloomy voice appeared in their ears, and then the roof of the third floor was suddenly lifted up by a huge force. Suddenly, stone tiles flew everywhere, dust filled the sky, and all three of them were covered in it.
Fei Lao had the highest level of cultivation among the three, and he was also the least affected by spiritual pressure. At this moment, he waved his hands, and with a surge of magic power, he suddenly propped up a huge light shield, supporting the entire room, and the stone tiles were covered with flying debris. Block out.
A gust of wind blew, and sand was blown everywhere. The three of them looked up at the sky, but could not see anything. However, the wind and sand blocked their sight, and their spiritual consciousness could not penetrate into it.
The three of them were shocked, and even more confused in their hearts. As soon as the visitor arrived, he overturned the roof of Xingshan Hall. With such momentum, could he have a grudge against Mr. Fei? Could it be that this person is here to seek revenge?
But the wind and sand came and went just as quickly, and calmness returned in just a few breaths, and then only the ruins of the third floor and the three cultivators standing there were left.
Zhou Yang woke up first. He subconsciously looked at Ling'er on the bed, but she was nowhere to be seen!
"Ling'er!" Zhou Yang couldn't help but screamed as he whipped up his cream. His bell, his bell was missing!
"Ling'er! Ling'er!" Zhou Yang's eyes were red and he shouted like crazy.
Fei Lao put away the mask, and his face was full of confusion. Why did a big living person disappear in the blink of an eye? Could it be that the golden elixir master snatched her away?
"Boy Zhou, I will take Ling'er away first. She will be fine. Don't look for her again. For the sake of your boy taking care of Ling'er for many days, I will give you one last piece of advice. A storm is coming to Anping City. You Your cultivation level is too low, you’d better leave here as soon as possible!”
When Zhou Yang was shouting, the gloomy voice suddenly came to his ears, but it was much softer at this time, which cleared his mind and stabilized his somewhat irrational mood.
The previous message was sent to the three of them, but now it was sent to him alone. The tone did not seem malicious, but the words about not looking for her again were very serious and contained a strong warning.
"Who is the senior, and why did he take Ling'er away?" Although he realized that this person had no ill intentions, he wanted to take Ling'er away. How could Zhou Yang be willing to do so, so he asked loudly.
"Humph, only I can save her!" The man snorted coldly, and then became silent again.
"You can save him? Is it true?" Zhou Yang yelled several more times, but there was no reply for a long time.
"You can't leave, come back!" Zhou Yang yelled like crazy, but didn't reply at all.
Fei Lao and Qin Ming looked at Zhou Yang in surprise. They also saw that the golden elixir master seemed to be talking to Zhou Yang. Could it be that they knew each other?
Zhou Yang went crazy and wanted to rush out of Xingshan Hall, but Qin Ming held him tightly.
