Elder Zhuge suggested to invite the Sect Masters of all the peaks and let the true leader of Mount Wuzhi make a decision on this matter.
This idea was quickly approved by Elder Qiu Yue of Ethereal Summit and the elders of the other peaks.
After all, Wu Mountain's strength was not to be underestimated. Moreover, the Old Demon of Wu Mountain, who had once dominated the world, did not appear this time. On the surface, it seemed that Wu Mountain had suffered a great loss, but in reality, that might not be the case.
Moreover, Mount Wuzhi did not know where the old nest of Mount Wu was. If they really wanted to get rid of them, they would have to send elders to search everywhere in the world. This would be a huge battle. If they wanted to fight, they would have to start with the real leaders.
"Elder Zhuge, Elder Lei Dong, the five Sect Masters are in seclusion cultivation. Even if they receive the news, it will take some time for them to come out."
"It's rare for us old friends to meet today. Why don't you come to Ethereal Summit for a few days?" Just as the peaks were arranging for their disciples to move, Elder Qiu Yue of Ethereal Summit smiled and said.
"Since Elder Qiu Yue has asked, how can I, Lei Dong, reject?"
Elder Lei Dong actually agreed. However, Elder Zhuge did not reply. It seemed that he did not want to go, but it was hard for him to reject as well. He seemed to be in a difficult position.
"Elder Zhuge, Elder Lei Dong, do you still remember the straw box that we picked up in Luoyan Valley?" Seeing that Elder Zhuge wanted to reject, Elder Qiu Yue spoke again.
"Heh, of course I remember."
Elder Zhuge and Elder Lei Dong replied at the same time. Moreover, a nostalgic expression appeared on the faces of the two elders. It could be seen that the relationship between these three elders was not simple.
Although Elder Zhuge and Elder Lei Dong looked like two elders now, and Elder Qiu Yue was still a beautiful lady in her forties, Xing Jue could tell from their words that Elder Qiu Yue's real age was probably not younger than the two elders.
"Elder Qiu Yue, after so many years, the straw box still hasn't been opened?" After hearing about the straw box, Elder Lei Dong was instantly interested.
"The barrier set up by the straw box is unusual. I'm afraid that even if the Supreme Elder were to come out from seclusion, he might not be able to open it. Unless a Universe God is alive, otherwise, no one in the world should be able to open it," Elder Zhuge said decisively.
"Heh, I won't hide it from the two elders. Right now, the barrier around the straw box has weakened greatly. Not to mention the supreme elder, it shouldn't be a problem for the three of us to open it together." Elder Qiu Yue smiled.
"What? Is Elder Qiu Yue speaking the truth? " Elder Lei Dong hurriedly asked after hearing Elder Qiu Yue's words. Even the usually calm Elder Zhuge's face revealed a slight change.
"That straw box was discovered by the three of us at the same time. No matter what is inside the box, the three of us should divide it equally. Actually, this is also the reason why I asked the two elders to go."
"Elder Qiu Yue, what are you saying? We agreed that day that the straw box belongs to you. Even if the straw box is opened and there is a treasure inside, it will naturally belong to you."
"However, that straw box is fated with the two of us. Now that there is hope to open it, the two of us are naturally willing to lend Elder Qiu Yue a helping hand." Although Elder Lei Dong said that he did not covet the item in the straw box, Xing Jue could feel the aura of greed from him.
"Elder Zhuge, I wonder if you can give me some face?" Elder Qiu Yue only smiled faintly at Elder Lei Dong's reply. Instead, she cast a gentle gaze at Elder Zhuge. She seemed to really hope that Elder Zhuge would go.
"Alright. Calculating the time, it will indeed take some time for the sect master to come out of seclusion. However, this time, I want to bring someone along," Elder Zhuge said with a smile after pondering for a moment.
"Oh? Who? " At that moment, not only the two elders, but even Murong Xiaoxiao, Bai Ye, and Lu Yuan, who were observing the three elders, became curious.
At the same time, more people looked at Lu Yuan. They all felt that the person that Elder Zhuge wanted to bring was Lu Yuan. After all, he was the number one direct disciple of the Hermit Peak.
"Xing Jue, come over and meet the seniors!"
However, to everyone's surprise, Elder Zhuge actually looked at Xing Jue, who was among the direct disciples in the distance.
"This …"
At that moment, Xing Jue's heart couldn't help but race. He had clearly heard the previous conversation between the elders, but even he didn't expect that his master had already found out that he was here and wanted to bring him to the Ethereal Summit.
At that moment, everyone's gaze swept across the direct disciples of the Hermit Peak. They felt that the person that Elder Zhuge paid so much attention to must at least be a direct disciple.
Therefore, when Xing Jue stepped out from the crowd and flew in the air on his purple mist, everyone was shocked when he arrived in front of Elder Zhuge and the other big figures.
"Xing Jue greets Master and all the elders!"
After all, Xing Jue was someone who had been through a lot. His mental fortitude was extremely good. Thus, even when he faced people like Elder Lei Dong and Elder Qiu Yue, he was not flustered at all. He greeted them calmly one by one.
"Uh … No way? He's Elder Zhuge's disciple? "
However, when Xing Jue said "greet Master", many people present broke down. They could all feel the strength of Xing Jue's Intermediate Shura Martial Master strength. They couldn't understand how such a powerful Elder Zhuge could have such a disciple.
Not to mention the direct disciples and elders of Wuzhi Peak, even Elder Lei Dong, Elder Qiu Yue, Murong Xiaoxiao, Bai Ye, Lu Yuan, and the others were staring at Xing Jue with an indescribable feeling.
"Elder Zhuge, your taste in accepting disciples is getting weirder and weirder." At this moment, Elder Lei Dong finally spoke. His words were filled with a tinge of sarcasm.
"Heh, when I accept disciples, I always look at the future and never the present," Elder Zhuge replied with a smile.
"Oh? In that case, this disciple of yours must be extraordinary, right? "
"Since he's here and wasn't brought here by Elder Zhuge, could it be? Is he here to participate in the direct disciple assessment? "
Elder Lei Dong seemed to want to embarrass Elder Zhuge. He squinted his eyes and looked at Xing Jue because Xing Jue had become his bargaining chip to make things difficult for Elder Zhuge.
"In reply to this elder, I am indeed here to participate in the direct disciple assessment." This time, before Elder Zhuge could speak, Xing Jue had already answered first.
"Oh?"
Seeing that Xing Jue actually dared to interrupt him without any reservations, Elder Lei Dong was very surprised. However, he soon smiled and asked, "How is Nephew Xing Jue's results? How many tokens did you manage to collect? "
"During the assessment, I met too many seniors. I didn't manage to count them." Xing Jue smiled as if he was talking about something insignificant.
"What do you mean by that?" Hearing Xing Jue's reply, Elder Lei Dong's sword-like eyebrows raised because he had already understood the meaning behind Xing Jue's words.
Buzz.
This time, Xing Jue didn't reply. He waved his sleeve and a ray of light shot out. Dozens of tokens appeared in the air and floated around Xing Jue in an orderly manner.
"This …"
As they looked at the command plates that were slowly revolving around the Punishment Execution Plate, not a single person's expression did not change. That was because those were the test command plates. Moreover, every single peak possessed at least ten command plates.
In other words, not only did Xing Jue meet the requirements of passing the assessment with the strength of an Intermediate Asura Martial Master, he had also far surpassed the limits of the assessment.
"Haha … This is really a case of talented people appearing in every generation. The new generation replaces the old."
"Elder Zhuge's eyes are indeed sharp. It seems that Xing Jue's achievements in the future will be limitless. Perhaps his name will appear on the Universe Ranking in a few years."
While everyone was in shock, Elder Qiu Yue suddenly laughed. Moreover, her eyes were filled with admiration as she looked at Xing Jue.
Putting aside how Xing Jue had obtained such dazzling results, just the fact that Xing Jue dared to display such results at this moment required extraordinary courage.
This was because everyone could tell that Elder Lei Dong wanted to use Xing Jue to embarrass Elder Zhuge. However, Xing Jue's performance was the complete opposite of what he had expected.
This meant that Xing Jue had ruthlessly slapped Elder Lei Dong's face in front of all the inheritance elders and direct disciples of Mount Wuzhi. This was not something that an ordinary person would dare to do.
Indeed, compared to everyone else's shock, Xing Jue could clearly see that Elder Lei Dong's face was twitching. It was as awkward as it could be and as ugly as it could be. If not for the fact that there were so many people present, he would definitely have killed Xing Jue with a palm strike.
However, regarding the current situation, Xing Jue did not feel the slightest bit of guilt. Xing Jue was not a showy person. If it wasn't for Elder Lei Dong making things difficult for him, he definitely would not have taken out these badges to show off.
If one were to say that the execution at this moment had indeed put Elder Lei Dong in a difficult position, he could only blame himself. Who asked him to intentionally embarrass Elder Zhuge?
As Elder Zhuge's disciple, naturally, Xing Jue couldn't let him do as he pleased. Even though he was a famous person in the world, a manager elder of the Heavenly Law Peak, when it was time to take away his face, he had to.
After Xing Jue's appearance successfully caused a sensation, the elders and disciples of Mount Wuzhi returned to their respective peaks to prepare for the battle against Mount Wu.
However, the main characters of this battle, Elder Zhuge and Elder Lei Dong, followed Elder Qiu Yue to the Misty Peak as guests.
Of course, other than the three famous characters, there was also Xing Jue, a small character who had already left a deep impression in everyone's hearts.
Moreover, this time, Bai Ye and Lu Yuan, the two direct disciple representatives of Heaven Law Peak and Return Peak, were also invited by Elder Qiu Yue to the Misty Peak as guests.
Under the lead of Elder Zhuge and the other experts, in a short two days, they arrived at the place that the men of the world yearned for, the Misty Peak.
