Wu Yaochen kept his word and actually led everyone to visit various parts of the clan, going to many places that ordinary guests would not notice nor have the right to enter.
This includes several locations that are currently being redeveloped. Wu Yaochen took them into the construction site and building, and explained in detail the relevant information such as facility planning, cost management, technology, and personnel deployment. Although the details were a bit too detailed, Huo Xiumao and others took it as knowledge and absorbed it.
Jing Yingrong glanced at Wu Yaochen who was talking enthusiastically and actively, tilted his head and said nothing.
The last group of people arrived at the foot of Fallen Sun Volcano.
It is said to be at the foot of the mountain, but in fact it is still one mile away from the mountain. Just standing here, you can feel the hot heat rushing towards your face.
The thick flaming breath in the air is like solid substance, suppressing every creature that steps into this area. Unless they have strong cultivation or have the blood of the Emperor Rong clan, ordinary people will find it difficult to even operate their spiritual power.
"Just take a look here. No matter how close it is, I'm afraid you won't be able to bear it."
Wu Yaochen said, naturally the target of these words was not Jing Yingrong, "Of course, you can also try... What's wrong with you?"
His eyes fell on Yin Xueze.
Yin Xueze looked dazed, and when asked, his reaction was much slower than usual, and he said in confusion: "Huh?"
Shu Pinghui looked at his expression and said, "Aren't you sleepy again?"
"Again?" Wu Yaochen caught the word.
Yin Xueze frowned and said, "What did you say you wanted to try just now?"
Wu Yaochen was silent for a moment.
"nothing."
The atmosphere seemed to be frozen for a moment, but he immediately said to Jing Yingrong nonchalantly: "Senior sister, how long will you probably stay?"
After Jing Yingrong asked Ji Yanzhu in the sea of consciousness, he replied: "No more than an hour."
"Then we will wait here for Senior Sister."
"Um."
Jing Yingrong's figure disappeared. Wu Yaochen glanced at the top of the volcano, then withdrew his gaze, and naturally continued talking about the reconstruction project along the way.
But at this time, he mostly talked about his troubles, such as the difficult problems he encountered. The others had just listened to him for a long time, and when their minds were full of active ideas, they started to exchange ideas with each other.
…
At the top of Fallen Sun Volcano, the spiritual consciousness reflected in the mirror gathered from the foot of the mountain.
Ji Jie Bi laughed: "He will find a way."
Ji Yanzhu: "There are sets of ghost ideas, just like Quan Yatou."
Ji Sha Jian: "Stop talking nonsense and get down quickly."
"Why are you urging me? Mirror didn't even bother me. Oh, are you jealous of Mirror meeting my request so quickly?"
"..."
Sensing that the smell of gunpowder was getting stronger, Jijie Bi hurriedly interrupted: "Yan, don't be greedy after you go down."
Ji Yanzhu: "I know, I know."
After saying that, its body drew an arc in the air and fell into the golden liquid.
"Wow - comfortable!"
The extremely flaming beads floated and played, and the gold liquid followed them, chasing the beads as if they were spiritual.
Ji Sha Sword Didi Gugu: "Boring, childish, silly,..."
Ji Jie Bi tried his best to suppress laughter.
The reflection in the mirror seemed to be feeling something, and he glanced in the direction of Dongwu Hall of the Di Rong Clan,
It was just a casual glance, and then she turned her gaze back to look at the Extreme Flame Bead in the golden liquid, and her attention returned to the movement in the sea of consciousness.
Jiyanzhu played happily, Jishajian muttered brokenly, and Jijie pen overflowed with chuckles.
A soft warmth appeared on the corners of her lips.
…
In the Dongwu Palace, the clan elder who was reporting the matter to Wu Shao suddenly noticed that the other party's expression was different, so he raised his voice and said: "Clan leader, clan leader?"
Wu Shao's eyelids twitched, and he suddenly came back to his senses, his expression instantly returned to normal.
"I thought of other things and lost my mind."
Facing the clan elder's slightly concerned eyes, Wu Shao explained calmly, "It's okay, just keep talking."
"Yes. Regarding the distribution plan proposed by fellow Daoist Yu on behalf of Taichu Guan, I think..."
As Wu Shao listened to the clan elder's report, the ray of consciousness he had explored before quietly returned, while a trace of horror remained in his eyes.
…
When Jing Yingrong had enough fun with Ji Yanzhu, he left the top of the mountain.
But she did not return to her original position, but appeared some distance away from Wu Yaochen and others.
Those people were in the middle of a discussion, and no one noticed her presence for a while. Huo Xiumao and Yin Xueze had differences of opinion on the issue of handling waste from a certain reconstruction project. The two argued hard and neither side gave in. Shu Pinghui came up with a new idea, so there was another disagreement.
As for Wu Yaochen, he was responsible for chiming in and cheering up from time to time, controlling the situation that was on the verge of getting out of control, and raising new questions.
Jing Yingrong watched silently for a long time, until a voice sounded behind her:
"Junior Sister Jing, what are you doing here? Why don't you go with them?"
The other party was Yu Xian who had just arrived. She looked at her reflection in the mirror and then at the people over there, with questions written all over her face.
Jing Yingrong did not answer, but pointed at those people, signaling Yu Xian to listen.
After listening to it for a while, Yu Xian came back to his senses and said "Hey" in a funny voice, but did not express any opinion on this. Instead, he pointed to the top of the Fallen Sun Volcano and asked Jing Yingrong, "Have you gone up to see it?"
Jing Yingrong: "Yeah."
Yu Xian: "I also went up to take a look, and then walked around for a while. I heard from people from the Di Rong clan that they saw the wizard brother leading you this way. I happened to have something to discuss with you, so I turned back."
Jing Yingrong: "What's the matter?"
"I have an idea regarding your cultivation..."
Before she finished speaking, she was suddenly interrupted by a shout:
"Senior Jing, Senior Sister Yu!"
But it was Huo Xiumao who discovered them. Others followed the sound and the discussion ended.
Yu Xian waved in response and walked towards the crowd with Jing Yingrong.
When the group of people gathered together, Yu Xian looked at Wu Yaochen and teased: "Aren't we a little early? I think your problem hasn't been solved yet."
Wu Yaochen didn't feel guilty at all about having his purpose revealed, and said with a smile: "It's almost done. Besides, how can we keep the two senior sisters waiting for so long."
He took out a jade slip and solemnly burned information into it.
Although others could not see the specific content of the message, they thought about Wu Yaochen's words, recalled everything before, and combined it with Yu Xian's words, and they immediately guessed the inside story.
Shu Pinghui laughed angrily on the spot.
"Co-author, you treat us as free think tanks?"
Huo Xiumao's face also looked a little strange, but as soon as his thoughts changed, he felt relieved and said: "Junior sister Shu, don't be angry. We have also learned a lot and benefited a lot. We are fellow practitioners in discussing the Tao. This is a win-win situation."
Yin Xueze was surprisingly calm, so calm that Shu Pinghui didn't even bother to get angry anymore and instead asked him, "Why aren't you angry?"
