Hearing Chen Qingtian's comforting words, Bai Yunfei became much more stable at this time, but he still said absently: "I hope so!"
Then he smiled and said to Chen Qingtian: "I am a disciple of the Cixin Sect, and I must contribute to the sect. But you are different. You have not joined the sect. Even if the empire has a recruitment order, you don't have to go."
"But..." Bai Yunfei hesitated for a while, and finally reminded: "Qingtian, you are an elite Taoist student with strong strength, but you are unwilling to join the sect. I'm afraid that someone will trick you into fighting the monster clan. If something like this really happens, you must refuse and never agree.”
Chen Qingtian felt warm in his heart. Bai Yunfei came here this time, probably to remind him.
If the sect receives a recruitment order from the empire, there is no need for him to go. Don't be fooled by others.
But unfortunately, Bai Yunfei didn't know his situation clearly. If such a thing really happened, he would have an idea.
But he still responded: "Brother Bai, don't worry! I'm young, but I'm not that stupid. I do things in a measured way."
Bai Yunfei nodded. At this time, he felt relieved and said nothing more. Then the two of them talked about other things and then separated.
At the same time, on the outskirts of Yunmen Mountain, the tallest and largest main peak of Cixin Sect's mountain gate was on top.
There is a splendid palace made of special metal. A hundred-meter-wide plaque at the main entrance reads: Main Palace of Cixin Sect.
In a secret room at the innermost part of the main palace, there are twenty or thirty important figures of Cixin Sect.
The leader is none other than Cao Zhengxin, the leader of Cixin Sect.
There are also two important figures sitting on his left and right, the one on the left is Deputy Sect Leader Lian Zhanxiong.
The one on the right is a beautiful woman who has been carefully dressed. She looks graceful, luxurious and obviously wealthy.
Even though she looks older, she can't hide her delicate facial features.
She also has a very high status and is obviously another deputy sect leader of Cixin Sect.
Then the first seat at the bottom was immediately vacant, and no one sat down.
Cao Zhengxin glanced there, and then asked: "Where is Chief Lin! Is he still unwilling to come to this important matter to be discussed?"
Facing the Sect Master's question, a middle-aged elder below replied: "Sect Master, I have informed Chief Lin."
"He said that he never interferes in the internal affairs of the sect. We will discuss the results. If there is any need for his help, just let him know."
When Cao Zhengxin heard this, he remained calm at first, and then said with a habitual smile: "Since Mr. Lin doesn't want to be disturbed by common things, we will try not to disturb him in the future."
well!
After Cao Zhengxin finished speaking, he sighed and took out a golden document with a serious face.
I saw him opening the scroll, and a golden light shone out from inside, and a series of magical words appeared on it.
These key figures of Cixin Sect all looked ugly after reading it carefully.
After everyone watched, Cao Zhengxin put away the document, and then said slowly: "Everyone has seen this empire's recruitment order."
"Our Cixin Sect sent five elders and 300 deacon disciples above the level of magic power last time."
"For this reason, Elder Qiuye died, and so far, the news I have received is that 70 of the 300 deacon disciples we sent have died in battle. I am deeply saddened by such a loss!"
After Cao Zhengxin finished speaking, there was not much sadness on his face.
On the contrary, the deputy sect leader Lian Zhanxiong looked sad.
Because the elder Qiu Ye who died in the battle was his most proud disciple. He was extremely talented and had always been very lucky.
It can be described as a series of adventures, and I hope to follow in his footsteps and reach a higher level.
Unexpectedly, an elder who had only been an elder for five years would sacrifice his life for the sect. This was a loss for Cixin Sect, and even more so for his personal loss.
Lian Zhanxiong spoke up. He suppressed the anger in his heart and said in a cold tone: "The Great Xia Empire is really not a thing. This recruitment order is an understatement. Let us Cixin Sect send five more elders and five hundred mana." Disciples who are above the realm can go over."
"So, they are going to fight the demon clan again. With so many strong men from our Compassionate Sect passing by, some of them will be able to come back safely."
Facing these words, the noble lady deputy sect leader on Cao Zhengxin's right also said in a mocking tone: "Actually, everyone knows in their hearts that this is the empire's way of suppressing us. It is not easy to cultivate a mana realm disciple."
"We have managed to accumulate so many outstanding disciples over the years. According to past experience, it would be good if 30% of the disciples sent to fight against the monsters can survive."
Cao Zhengxin heard what the two deputy sect leaders on his left and right said, and then smiled and asked the elders below: "You all also tell me, how will our Cixin Sect respond to this recruitment order? Should we send people there under the call, or will we find an excuse? Denial!"
Cao Zhengxin said this, and the atmosphere below was solemn. Although these people complained about the empire's practices, if they refused to obey the call, the consequences would definitely be serious.
After a moment of silence, an elder who looked like an old man finally spoke. He said in a sharp tone: "The consequences of not following the call will definitely be serious. This is a deliberate way for the empire to weaken us, and it is also a way to test our obedience. .”
"My personal opinion is that we should send out the disciples and let the five elders lead the team there, but..."
Having said this, he paused for a moment, as if he had some good ideas, and finally said with a smile: "I think it can be like this. The Daxia Empire said that it must send five hundred disciples who are above the magic level."
"We can select all those disciples who are old, have limited potential, and are difficult to continue to improve their cultivation. This can be considered as an explanation, and it can also preserve the vitality of our Compassionate Sect."
The suggestion of this elder who looked like an old man made several other elders here very moved.
In the minds of some high-level powerful men in the sect, characters with low level and average potential do not seem to be of that great value.
If there is no other way, it is best for the sect to abandon such a group of people. Although it is a bit ruthless, it is still a way.
As soon as his proposal came out, one of the tall and thin elders mentioned it again: "Elder Niu is right, we can't have a stalemate with the empire for the time being, everything is for the sake of Compassionate Heart Sect."
"I have another suggestion. Regarding our Compassionate Sect Taoist Academy, there are many Taoist students above the magic level who are unwilling to join our sect. We can also let these people pass."
"As for the method, as long as you offer some benefits first and make some promises, you are not afraid that they will not agree. This can be considered as giving full play to their value, hum!"
The proposal of these two elders was immediately echoed by three elders: "I think it's okay. Since the empire's recruitment order has been issued, we still have to be summoned."
"I also agree with being called. When Xuantian Sect refused to be called, we all here should know what happened!"
"I think Elder Niu and Elder Xiong's suggestions are acceptable. As long as we send strong men to match the number, everything else is easy to deal with. I don't think the empire will care too much. After all, our Compassionate Sect has always obeyed their orders."
"Yes, and this time not only our Cixin Sect has received the recruitment order, but also many large and small families and sects in this eastern region have received it!"
"These people are more or less capable of using tricks. As long as it's not too much, everyone can handle it."
When Cao Zhengxin, the top leader, heard these proposals, he did not immediately express his position. He focused on the two deputy sect leaders on the left and right.
Lian Zhanxiong frowned at this time. After taking a heavy breath, he still expressed his opinion.
"I don't agree with what Elder Niu said about sending some strong men from the magic realm and psychic realm with limited potential."
"Although I am personally angry, I also know that the current Daxia Empire is not something we can shake, so we can only continue to endure it."
"Since everyone has decided to accept the call, there is no need to resort to these tactics."
"Besides, many of those powerful people in the Mana Realm and Psychic Realm who are old and find it difficult to continue to improve their realm have worked hard for the sect for hundreds of years."
"How can we bear to abandon them at this time? If word spreads about it, it will damage the reputation of our Compassionate Heart Sect and chill the hearts of many people. It will have a very bad impact in the future."
When Elder Niu saw Lian Zhanxiong's retort, his face froze and he glanced at Cao Zhengxin carefully.
Seeing that the sect leader didn't say anything, he immediately faked a smile and said: "Haha, I, Niu Lin, admire the compassionate heart of the deputy sect leader, but for the future of the sect, what's wrong with my method."
"For us cultivators, in addition to our own luck and opportunities, our talent and potential are extremely important. Only by leaving strong and highly qualified people can the sect have hope."
"As for the so-called reputation, as long as we cultivate real genius monsters, who will say anything? Even if those with average qualifications have opinions, why should we care? They can't affect anything."
"Furthermore, I don't think any of those strong men who have been dedicated to the sect would be unwilling to make such a contribution to the sect."
"If you go to fight the monsters, you may not die. If you can survive, the empire will not treat them badly and will give them honors and rewards. Our sect will naturally reward them heavily. Wouldn't that be beautiful!"
"That's so well said!" Lian Zhanxiong didn't refute anything at this time, but calmed down at this time, and then sneered: "I remember, Elder Niu, you have wasted more than two hundred years in the perfection stage of the divine elixir realm!"
"The Great Xia Empire recruitment order, in addition to asking us to send 500 disciples with magic power level or above, also needs to send five elders. According to you, one of the five elders to be sent must be You, everyone, say yes!"
"Haha..." A chuckle came, and it turned out to be the noble lady's deputy sect leader.
Seeing Elder Niu's ugly face and the playful attitude of the others, she couldn't help but joked: "Even the deputy sect leader said this is actually right. Since the disciples have chosen this way, the elders must set an example, otherwise it will not be justified. Do you think so? …….hehe……."
At this moment, veins began to pop out on Elder Niu's forehead, but he was still calm and quickly defended: "No! I sent disciples with limited potential because they are weak and have a high casualty rate."
"But elders, you must send someone with strong strength and high level, so as to ensure that everyone comes back alive."
"The best thing is, if the two deputy sect masters go there, then with their level of strength, they will definitely get a higher honor and return safely."
"Haha... don't say that too well! It's simply ridiculous!" Before the two deputy sect masters could say anything, another elder stood up and angrily said: "Elder Niu's two statements really amaze me, and the demon In clan wars, wouldn’t it be easy for elders and above to get into trouble?”
"According to past experience, even if a strong man in the tenth level of Fatong passes by, he may still fall."
"For a strong person like you Niu Lin, ten of them combined can't compare to the one hand of our deputy sect leader. The risk of sending you there is far lower than that of sending deputy sect leader Lian and deputy sect leader Yi. If anything happens to them, they will be the first to go." It’s a huge loss to our Compassionate Heart Sect!”
