The matter of Five Poison Sect's attack this time was considered over. Generally speaking, Five Poison Sect had gained some advantages. Although they had lost a lot of inner sect disciples, Poison Dragon Sect had also lost a lot of inner sect disciples. The number of inner sect disciples lost from both sides was almost the same. It could be said that Poison Dragon Sect didn't gain any advantages in this aspect.
As for the Poison Dragon Sect's outer court disciples, they had lost too many. The Poison Dragon Sect's outer court disciple loss was several times that of the Five Poison Sect. Adding on the destruction of the Poison Tree Sect, they had lost more than half of their disciples. If they wanted to rebuild this sect, the amount of things they needed was not a small amount.
However, with the support of the Poison Dragon Sect, these things weren't a big deal. This was because when the Poison Tree Sect was established, some of their important buildings, such as the Scripture Pavilion, were inside the sect. The buildings there weren't destroyed, so there was no need to rebuild them. Rebuilding the Poison Tree Sect only needed to rebuild the sect and then recruit enough disciples.
It was very easy for the Poison Tree Sect to recruit people. At this time, there were countless people outside who wanted to join the Poison Tree Sect. This was because there were too many rogue cultivators. Not to mention one Poison Tree Sect, even a hundred Poison Tree Sects would be filled with rogue cultivators.
At this time, Tao Jing and the others returned to the Poison Dragon Sect. This time, not only did Tao Jing and the others drive away the Five Poison Sect, they also slaughtered all the clans in Parasol Tree City. These clans didn't resist when the Five Poison Sect wanted to control them. They also didn't report to the Poison Tree Sect. In the eyes of the Poison Dragon Sect, this was tantamount to betrayal. Therefore, Tao Jing and the others slaughtered all the clans in Parasol Tree City. In the future, the Poison Dragon Sect would send some outer disciples to establish new clans in Parasol Tree City and manage the city.
Zhao Hai's group didn't care about this. At this moment, Zhao Hai and Wu Kai's group were living in the Poison Tree Sect. Moreover, Tie She and Li Tieniu were also sent back to the sect. In the future, Zhao Hai would be living here for a long time.
Fortunately, there were still a lot of disciples in the Poison Tree Sect. These disciples were the survivors of the battle with the Five Poison Sect. Although many of them were injured, they didn't run away. They used the terrain of the Poison Tree Sect to entangle with the Five Poison Sect. Finally, the reinforcements arrived. It could be said that these people were the heroes of the Poison Tree Sect.
Wu Kai's group didn't mistreat these people. All of them became inner disciples of the Poison Tree Sect. After their wounds were healed, they began to rebuild the sect.
In the previous battle, 60% of the Poison Tree Sect's buildings were destroyed. It wouldn't be easy to restore the sect to its original state.
After Wu Kai and Zhao Hai's group discussed, they decided to restore the sect's buildings first. Then they would recruit new people. This way, the Poison Tree Sect would be able to recover in the shortest time possible.
Zhao Hai's group didn't object. Therefore, they immediately began to rebuild the Poison Tree Sect. Fortunately, they were all cultivators. Moreover, Zhao Hai and the others were experts in the Deity Realm. They could easily use various techniques. Because of this, it wasn't difficult to build these houses.
Naturally, the Poison Dragon Sect also sent an army of servants to help. Therefore, in less than a month, the Poison Tree Sect was restored to its original state.
However, this time, the Poison Tree Sect was prepared. In the forest outside the sect, there were a lot of defensive measures. If the Five Poison Sect wanted to attack, then their losses wouldn't be small.
After arranging everything, the Poison Tree Sect began to detain people. Right now, they had close to a thousand disciples. Among them, more than seven hundred had already become inner sect disciples. This was because these disciples had fought the Five Poison Sect's people to the very end in the sect. Later on, two hundred more disciples ran back. They had fled the sect when the Five Poison Sect attacked. Now, they were back.
Wu Kai didn't punish them. After all, in that kind of situation, even they had run away, so it was only right for these disciples to run away. However, these disciples who ran back couldn't be promoted. If they were originally inner disciples, they would still be inner disciples. If they were outer disciples, they would still be outer disciples. They wouldn't be promoted and wouldn't be punished.
Among these people, Li Tieniu was the most special one. He ran away with Iron Snake. However, he no longer belonged to the Poison Tree Sect. Instead, he had become Zhao Hai's disciple. It could be said that he had reached the heavens with a single step, causing countless people to be envious.
The news of the Poison Tree Sect recruiting new disciples quickly spread out, causing countless Rogue Cultivators to go crazy. Their conditions were very similar to the last time. Last time, they wanted earthworms. This time, they wanted poisonous snakes. The more poisonous the snakes, the better. Each person had to catch five of them alive. This time, the number of disciples they were recruiting was two thousand.
Zhao Hai finally understood how attractive a sect was to rogue cultivators. In less than a month, two thousand disciples were all recruited. This was because countless people had to go through slaughter to join the Poison Tree Sect.
After these disciples were recruited, the Poison Tree Sect was finally on the right track. Normally, the sect didn't need to be managed. There were some servants from the Poison Dragon Sect to do the work. Moreover, there were also rules and inner disciples to help manage the sect. Because of this, Zhao Hai and Wu Kai's group were able to relax.
Zhao Hai wasn't cultivating by himself. Instead, he began to interact with Wu Kai and the others. Wu Kai and the others were very grateful to Zhao Hai. Although they were still managing the Poison Tree Sect, it was different from before. In the past, they were expelled from the sect. The Poison Dragon Sect didn't care about them. In other words, the Poison Dragon Sect didn't care about them.
But now, they were Zhou Fengming's people. Zhou Fengming hoped that they could manage the Poison Tree Sect well. Because of this, Zhou Fengming paid a lot of attention to them.
Because of this attention, the Poison Tree Sect's development was very good. The newly recruited disciples were still training. Their strength wasn't very strong. However, this wasn't important. They would grow sooner or later.
On this day, Zhao Hai went to Wu Kai's courtyard. Wu Kai was reading a book in his courtyard. These books were given to them by Zhou Fengming. They were very precious books. Some of the books were handwritten by the Poison Dragon Sect's seniors. These books recorded the cultivation experiences of the Poison Dragon Sect's seniors. They were very precious things.
When Wu Kai saw that Zhao Hai had arrived, he put down the book in his heart. Then he smiled and said, "Zhao Hai, you're here. Come and take a seat."
Zhao Hai nodded and then sat down. A servant immediately served them tea. Then Wu Kai said, "You haven't been in seclusion recently?"
Zhao Hai shook his head and said, "I've been in seclusion for a long time. Now that I've closed up, I don't have any objections. Sect Master, I came to you this time to discuss the future development of the Poison Tree Sect. Do you want to invite the other Elders over so that we can discuss this matter together?"
When Wu Kai heard Zhao Hai, he stared. Then he looked at Zhao Hai and said, "What's there to discuss? Isn't the Poison Tree Sect developing very well? "
Zhao Hai shook his head and said, "Sect Master, if you think that way, then you're wrong. Our Poison Tree Sect seems to be developing very well, but this is only compared to the other sects. In other words, everyone's development is about the same. Our Poison Tree Sect is also the same. There's nothing special about it. This is what I'm worried about."
When Wu Kai heard Zhao Hai, his expression couldn't help but turn serious. Then he said, "Tell me more about it."
Zhao Hai nodded and said, "Sect Master, our Poison Tree Sect is an outer sect under Senior Brother Zhou Fengming. As a Core Disciple, Senior Brother Zhou Fengming should have a lot of outer sects and clans under his control. Isn't that right? If we continue to act like this, we will be no different from the other Outer Sects and Clans. How can Senior Martial Brother Zhou look at us with discerning eyes? We're just one of the forces under his control. Naturally, Senior Brother Zhou wouldn't look at us favorably. I'm afraid our development would be very limited. "
Wu Kai stared blankly, then his expression changed. He lowered his head and pondered. After a while, he opened his eyes and looked at Zhao Hai with sparkling eyes and said, "Then what does Junior Brother think? Do you want the Poison Tree Sect to develop even faster? But that won't be easy, right? "
Zhao Hai said, "Of course it won't be easy. But Senior Brother, if we can really develop and help Senior Brother Zhou, then I think it would be hard for Senior Brother Zhou not to think about us. What do you think?"
Wu Kai nodded and said, "That's true. But for a small sect like ours, I'm afraid it won't be easy to develop. We're an outer sect of the Poison Dragon Sect, this is something everyone knows. But the other small sects are also related to the large sects. If we want to expand, I'm afraid it'll be very difficult. "
Zhao Hai nodded and said, "This is indeed not easy. For a sect like ours, it's impossible for us to develop our strength in a short time. But we can start from other aspects."
When Wu Kai heard Zhao Hai, he hastily asked, "What do you think?"
Zhao Hai replied, "Sect Master, all the disciples in the Sect are rogue cultivators. It's impossible for them to not have friends outside. If we can make use of these people and establish an intelligence network, then wouldn't it be a great help to Senior Brother Zhou?" Zhao Hai nodded and said, "Senior Brother Zhou, I'm afraid this would be a great help."
Wu Kai was puzzled as he looked at Zhao Hai and said, "What do you mean?"
Zhao Hai replied with a serious tone, "Senior Brother Zhou is a core disciple, but core disciples also need to do missions. However, the missions that they do are more difficult and fewer. But if they want to do missions, they need information. This is because the missions that core disciples do are generally aimed at other sects. These missions are very dangerous and have a high requirement for information. The more detailed the information you get, the higher the probability of completing the mission. Moreover, all the disciples of the Poison Tree Sect are rogue cultivators. They also have their own friends outside. If we use them and provide them with funds, then these people might become our peripheral members and help us collect information. If our intelligence network can extend to every corner of the Demon Domain, then do you think that Senior Brother Zhou would still value us?" Zhao Hai nodded and said, "Senior Brother Zhou is a core disciple. But core disciples also need to do missions.
