Liu Ming opened his mouth and was about to say something.
At this moment, a loud sound of footsteps came, attracting the attention of most people in the hall.
Liu Ming swallowed the words that were about to come out of his mouth. He looked in the direction of the sound and found that three people came in from the entrance of the hall.
Judging from the clothes of the person in front, he was also an esoteric disciple like Liu Ming. He looked about 30 years old, and he was very tall. He was a head taller than Liu Ming, but his body looked a little thin, and his skin was yellow as if he was suffering from some kind of disease.
After Liu Ming scanned this person with Divine Sense, his pupils shrank slightly.
This person's spiritual pressure was around the late stage of Jin Dan. His body seemed to be dry, but there was a very strange aura in the depths of his body. It was as if all the essence had gathered in the depths of his bone marrow.
This feeling was somewhat similar to his physique after practicing the Dark Bone Method.
Behind the yellow-faced man were two people. They were a bronze-skinned man and a green-shirted girl. The girl wore a blue hair band on her head, and there was a red mole between her eyebrows. She exuded a strange charm.
The two were the famous Mysterious Heaven Peak Jin Dan Dual Cultivation, Shangguan Yanyu and Ling Yiyi.
The two seemed to be quite familiar with the yellow-faced man, but they were a little in awe of him. They followed behind him.
Liu Ming was not in the Sect for a long time, so he didn't know the three people, but judging from the clothes they were wearing, the man in front seemed to be an esoteric disciple. At the same time, he heard someone call him Senior Brother Kun.
He had just joined the ranks of esoteric disciples. He only knew two other esoteric disciples before. One was Kim Tin-thi, who had now become a Celestial State elder, and the other was Qiu Longzi. This esoteric disciple surnamed Kun was naturally unheard of.
The yellow-faced man looked cold. He turned a blind eye to the gazes of other disciples around him. He walked to the front of Daoist Tian Ge with the two people behind him. The three of them bowed at the same time and said, "Greetings, Sect Master."
"Good, everyone is here." Daoist Tian Ge nodded towards the yellow-faced man and the other two and stood up.
Seeing this, everyone in the hall immediately shut their mouths and looked at Perfected Tian Ge.
"Time is of the essence, so I'll keep it short. The truth is that I have summoned you here today is because there is an urgent mission. Early this morning, one of our sect's vassal families, the Green Mulberry Mountain Range's Ye Family, has sent someone to ask for help. There are a massive number of stemborers gathering around the Green Mulberry Mountain Range, and they are likely targeting the spirit vein there. After discussing with the elders, we've decided to send you to Green Mulberry Mountain to assist the Ye Family in exterminating these stemborers. The Spirit Vein and the mine there are extremely important to our sect. If we lose it, our losses will be immeasurable. Therefore, we cannot afford to lose it. "Master Tian Ge's gaze swept across the crowd as he slowly spoke.
"Yes, Sect Leader!"
Hearing this, no one was surprised. They agreed in unison.
"According to the information the Ye Clan has gathered so far, there are no Celestial Phenomenon Stemborers among this batch of stemborers, but don't get too complacent," Daoist Master Tian Ge warned.
"Yes!" Everyone nodded in agreement.
Daoist Master Tian Ge nodded, then glanced at Liu Ming and the yellow-faced man, and spoke again.
"This mission will be led by the two of you. Remember to consult with each other if there are any problems. We must exterminate this batch of stemborers!"
Hearing this, the yellow-faced man glanced at Liu Ming not far away, and a trace of surprise flashed through his eyes.
Liu Ming had been standing silently to the side, and the yellow-faced man had not noticed that there was another esoteric disciple in the hall.
After a brief moment of eye contact, the two of them cupped their hands toward Daoist Master Tian Ge in agreement.
The bronze-skinned muscular man behind the man with a yellow face looked at Liu Ming up and down. His eyes flickered with a strange expression. No one knew what he was thinking.
In the following time, Daoist Master Tian Ge briefly explained some of the key points of this mission, and then immediately issued an order, and a dozen disciples, including Calan, set off.
"Isn't it too risky to only have these disciples? Green Mulberry Mountain is only a few tens of thousands of miles away from the Crying Ghost Canyon. Although one of the spatial passages in the Crying Ghost Canyon has been temporarily sealed by the Haoran Academy, I heard that some high-level stemborers still managed to escape. It is likely that the stemborers of Green Mulberry Mountain escaped from the Crying Ghost Canyon. If there are Celestial Phenomenon State beings among them, wouldn't these disciples be in danger? Although Kun Yu is not weak, she has not fully recovered from the injuries she suffered in the recent battle, "the Celestial Phenomenon Elder said worriedly.
"Of course I have thought of this, but now that even you have to go to the front line, the sect really has no more people to spare, so we can only let these people go. But don't worry, with Liu Ming around, even if they encounter the Celestial Phenomenon Stemborers, they should be fine. "Daoist Master Tian Ge sighed lightly.
"Oh? That unassuming esoteric disciple is Liu Ming, who made great contributions in the battle of Dusk Peak? "The Celestial Phenomenon Elder was a bit surprised and nodded slowly.
On the square outside the main hall, Liu Ming and a dozen other people were preparing to set off.
Liu Ming and the yellow-faced man, Kun Yu, had already introduced themselves to each other. Then the two of them began to arrange the mission.
Although the two of them were leading the group, most of the arrangements were made by Kun Yu alone, and he seemed to be very interested in this kind of thing.
Liu Ming was too lazy to care about these things and just stood quietly by the side.
Just at this moment, footsteps came from behind him. Liu Ming turned around and saw the man and woman who had been with Kun Yu. They stopped not far away from him.
"You must be the famous Liu Ming among the inner sect disciples? I am Shangguan Yanyu from the Mysterious Heaven Peak. "Shangguan Yanyu looked at Liu Ming with a hint of gloominess in her eyes.
Liu Ming's eyes lit up and he faintly said, "So it's a senior brother and senior sister from the Mysterious Heaven Peak. Do you two have business with me?"
"I heard that you sealed the spatial passageway of the Stemborer Race's army during the battle of Dawnfall Peak a few days ago, thereby contributing greatly to the sect and being promoted to an esoteric disciple, am I correct?" Shangguan Yanyu asked as her eyes narrowed slightly.
Liu Ming frowned and replied, "Oh, so what?"
This person's tone was obviously a bit hostile, so he naturally spoke rudely.
"Senior Brother Liu misunderstood, this is our first time meeting you. We have long heard of your name, so we came to say hello. There is no other meaning." Just as Shangguan Yanyu was about to speak, Ling Yiyi took a step forward and stood in front of Shangguan Yanyu, speaking softly to Liu Ming.
There was a flash of coldness in Shangguan Yanyu's eyes. She looked at Ling Yiyi, let out a snort, and walked away.
Ling Yiyi smiled apologetically at Liu Ming before she quickly caught up with Shangguan Yanyu and walked toward Kun Yu.
Liu Ming looked at the two of them and felt a bit confused. He had only returned to the Taiqing Gate a few days ago and hadn't offended these two. Could it be because of Luo Tiancheng?
He thought back to the days after he returned to the sect, but he couldn't figure it out, so he tossed the idea aside.
He was too lazy to think about these small matters.
Shangguan Yanyu and Ling Yiyi stood not far away from Kun Yu.
Ling Yiyi looked at Shangguan Yanyu and sighed. "Yanyu, you are too impulsive."
"Hmph! I just can't take this lying down. Originally, Uncle had already helped me obtain an opportunity for the infiltration mission, and I had also spoken to the Sect Leader of Tian Ge. Who knew that this Liu Ming would suddenly interfere. If not for this, the one who would have become a Secret Disciple would be me, Shangguan Yanyu. "
"What's the use of looking for him now? There will be plenty of opportunities in the future. Let's take a step back and say that this person can't be underestimated since he was able to complete the infiltration mission. It's not worth it to offend an esoteric disciple. "Ling Yiyi shook her head and consoled her.
Shangguan Yanyu's face was still gloomy.
"Alright, I have said what I need to say. When we arrive at Qingsang Mountain, do as I say. Let's not waste any more time and set off now! " At the same time, Kun Yu had quickly arranged the people. She waved her sleeve and released a yellow shuttle-shaped flying ship. She took the lead and jumped onto it.
When Liu Ming and the other inner disciples saw this, they all flew onto the ship.
"Let's hurry over too. Senior Kun is waiting for us." Ling Yiyi looked at the flying ship not far away and said softly to Shangguan Yanyu.
When Shangguan Yanyu heard this, she looked at Liu Ming who was already standing at the stern of the flying ship and nodded. She hugged Ling Yiyi with one arm and appeared on the flying ship in a flash.
When Kun Yu saw that everyone had boarded the ship, she made a gesture with one hand and the surface of the yellow flying ship flashed. Suddenly, a thick layer of yellow light appeared and enveloped everyone. Then, it turned into a ball of yellow light and poured down for thousands of miles.
The distance between Thousand Spirit Mountain Range and Qingsang Mountain was quite far and there was no teleportation formation in between. They would need to fly non-stop for a few days.
Fortunately, the yellow flying ship was not small and there was a three-story pavilion on it. There were many independent rooms for them to rest in.
After Liu Ming heard about the mission arrangements from Kun Yu, he walked towards his room.
When he was halfway there, his eyes stopped on a door on the second floor. He walked up to the door and knocked lightly twice.
After a while, the door opened gently. The person in the room was dressed in blue. It was Calan.
She looked at Liu Ming and did not say anything. She moved her body to the side and made way for him.
Liu Ming touched his nose and walked in.
The room was not big. It was only about 100 feet in size. There was a bed, a table, and a chair. There was nothing else.
There was a red clay tea stove on the table. It was steaming and emitting a fragrance of tea.
Calan seemed to be brewing tea.
