"Even so, this marriage was agreed to by her father. No matter what, the Bai family has to give us an explanation." Du Hai snorted as he replied.
"With Junior Bai's current position in the Sect, I'm afraid the entire Bai Clan will have to rely on him. Whether or not this marriage is called off will be decided with a single word from him. Moreover, speaking of this matter, I actually owe Junior Bai a lot. After all, if I didn't forcefully drag Ming Zhu's matter onto him, I wouldn't have forced him to leave the Sect and hide from Gao Chong. "Mu Yun Xian replied with a bitter laugh.
"What, Junior Bai wants to leave the Sect?" This time, it was Du Hai's turn to be shocked.
"That's right. Our Junior is a smart person. He knows that once Gao Chong becomes a Spirit Master, he won't be able to fight back if he stays in the Sect. That's why he is preparing to leave. "Mu Yun Xian said with a bit of seriousness.
"That's true. However, if this happens, Junior Bai's cultivation will probably be delayed. He should have just become a Late Spirit Apostle not long ago. If he wants to cultivate until he can break through to the Spirit Master level, I'm afraid it will take a few more years. "Du Hai's expression changed a few times before he spoke slowly.
"Yes, that's what I think as well. However, even if Junior Bai's cultivation is enough, with his Three Spiritual Pulse, the chance of him becoming a Spirit Master is still very small. If he fails to break through to Spirit Master, Junior Bai can't stay outside forever and never return to the Sect. When that time comes, it will be the worst. "Mu Yun Xian sighed.
"If that's the case, Junior Bai's situation isn't as optimistic as I thought. No wonder you don't care about him breaking off the marriage. However, this way, it won't affect Ming Zhu, right? If Junior Bai breaks off the marriage, will Gao Chong go find Ming Zhu again after he comes out? "Du Hai nodded his head and asked another question.
"Don't worry about this. When Ming Zhu returns to the Bai Clan, even if she doesn't marry Junior Bai, I will urge my brother to immediately find another marriage for her and get her married as soon as possible. Once that Gao Chong becomes a Spirit Master, unless he really doesn't care about his face, he won't do something like snatching someone else's wife. "Hearing this, Mu Yun Xian suddenly laughed coldly and said.
"So that's what Yunxian is planning. That's not a bad idea. However, does that Gao Chong really have such great confidence in breaking through to Spirit Master in his seclusion this time? Everyone actually thinks that once he comes out of seclusion, he will definitely advance to the Spirit Condensation Realm. "Du Hai muttered to himself before suddenly asking a question.
"The scariness of an Earth Spiritual Pulse is not something that disciples like you and I can understand. But since the upper echelons of the Sect believe so, it is most likely true. At the very least, there should be a seventy to eighty percent chance of success." Mu Yunxian thought for a while before replying.
"I have a seventy to eighty percent chance of becoming a Spirit Master and advancing to the Liquid Level! Tsk tsk, if you and I can also reach this step, our lifespans will also be greatly increased. "A trace of envy flashed across Du Hai's face.
"With your talent, you might have a chance in the future. However, I have been stuck at the Middle Spirit Apostle for many years. In this life, I definitely do not have any hope. "Hearing this, Mu Yunxian's expression darkened.
Seeing this, Du Hai's heart was filled with regret. He hurriedly went forward to embrace the girl's fragrant shoulders and said a series of comforting words. Only then did Mu Yunxian's mood improve a little.
The two of them continued to chat about a few more things before rising into the air and flying away from the forest.
… …
After Liu Ming returned to Nine Infants Mountain, he immediately landed in his own residence and entered his room. He tore open a glyph.
Immediately, a light flashed and a layer of light barrier appeared once again.
Liu Ming sat cross-legged inside the light barrier and began to silently ponder the contents of what Mu Yunxian had told him previously.
The Bai Clan actually knew that he had already become one of the top ten Barbarian Ghost Sect disciples. Under such circumstances, they still dared to arrange the marriage between him and Mu Ming Zhu as an established fact. It seemed like either the Bai Family's Patriarch and the Bai Family's Eldest Young Lady had a screw loose in their heads and thought that they could tie him to the Bai Family, or something else had happened in the Bai Family that he didn't know about, forcing the Bai Family to do this.
Comparing the two, Liu Ming felt that the latter was more likely.
However, this matter did not matter. No matter what happened between the Practitioner Clans, Liu Ming was confident that with his current strength, he would be able to resolve it. Originally, he had planned to completely resolve the Bai Clan's matter after leaving the Sect. The other party had given him a good excuse.
After Liu Ming had fallen into his trap, he put this matter to the back of his mind. He reached into his bosom and immediately took out a small bottle that was a few inches tall. He then stood up and found a large wooden basin in a nearby corner. With one hand, he formed a seal and pointed at the basin.
Immediately, dots of blue light appeared in the basin. Balls of water appeared out of nowhere and became half a basin of clear water.
Only then did Liu Ming remove the cap of the bottle and pour out a small ball of grey liquid. The instant it came into contact with the clear water in the basin, it emitted a pungent smell. At the same time, the clear water became unusually mixed.
Seeing this, Liu Ming's face revealed a satisfied expression.
Only then did he slap his arm and take out the Sumeru Conch again. Then, he muttered an incantation and poured Fa Li into it.
A moment later, the Sumeru Conch immediately flashed with a white light and the Dragon Scale appeared in the wooden basin.
Liu Ming's two hands moved and pressed the leather armor directly into the murky liquid. Then, he withdrew his arms and closed his eyes to the side to adjust his breathing.
After a full six hours, he finally opened his eyes. With a movement of his arm, he took the leather armor out of the wooden basin. His other hand formed a seal and balls of clear water appeared out of nowhere, washing away all of the murky liquid on the leather armor.
A strange scene appeared!
Following the disappearance of the pungent smell, the aura of the Scarlet Dragon on the scales on the leather armor also disappeared with a swoosh.
Under these circumstances, even if someone saw the armor with their own eyes, they would definitely not be able to connect such a simple and crude armor with the Scarlet Dragon Scale.
Naturally, Liu Ming was overjoyed. After pouring a wave of Fa Li into the leather armor, hot air immediately came out of the leather armor. In an instant, the originally wet armor became dry and warm.
Next, he unceremoniously took off the outer layers of clothing and put on the leather armor. Then, he put it on again and stood up to move his arms and legs. After feeling that there was nothing wrong with it, he was naturally very satisfied.
The next day, Liu Ming went to the Duty Hall and spent some Contribution Points. After applying to leave for a period of time, he immediately quietly left the Sect and headed straight for the nearest Wei Zhou Market.
Time passed day by day like this.
After a month, when Liu Ming returned to the Sect, travel-worn, the two Totems in the Sumeru Conch that he had no use for had surprisingly turned into several tens of thousands of Spirit Stones. Only the light blue token of unknown use was left.
At the same time, the leather pouch at his waist that originally contained the Flying Head was replaced with an abnormally exquisite black leather pouch. From the appearance of the black gas that faintly seeped out of the pouch, it was clearly a treasure that was not inferior to the Cultivating Soul Pouch.
In his bosom and the Sumeru Conch, there were many more Glyphs, pills, and other consumables. These items had cost him close to ten thousand Spirit Stones.
This time, after Liu Ming returned to his residence, he first rested for a few days before going to the Duty Hall early in the morning.
In the hall on the second floor, Liu Ming stood under the Mission Crystal Monument. His gaze continuously swept across the ten or so missions that seemed to have been hung for a long time. He seemed to be a bit hesitant.
Although he had purposely chosen an extremely early time, there were still seven or eight disciples who had come to receive missions. Moreover, it was obvious that there were people who recognized Liu Ming. In their shock, they couldn't help but whisper to their nearby companions.
In a short amount of time, all of the disciples knew Liu Ming's identity. Immediately, gazes of admiration, respect, and all sorts of other things gathered on his body.
Liu Ming naturally felt these burning gazes. He suddenly turned his head and his eyes flashed as he swept his gaze over these disciples.
When these disciples met Liu Ming's gaze, they only felt a slight chill run through their bodies. They immediately turned their gazes away in shock.
At this time, Liu Ming once again turned his head back. He still stood in front of the crystal monument and muttered to himself in silence.
Now that the Sect had issued these missions for him to leave the Sect for a long period of time, he could only consider three of them.
The first was that the Barbarian Ghost Sect had recently received a Spirit Stone Mine from the Hall of Blood and needed a few Inner Sect Disciples to guard it for a few years.
The other was the Mountain Rippling Monastery, which belonged to the Barbarian Ghost Sect at the border between the Da Xuan Kingdom and the Heishui Kingdom. The original monastery master was nearing the end of his life and needed a new disciple to take over his position.
The last mission was in the capital of the Da Xuan Country, Xuanjing. A Supervising Disciple representing the Barbarian Ghost Sect had suddenly disappeared and cut off all contact with the Sect. Thus, a new Supervising Disciple was needed to take over his duties and find out where the Supervising Disciple was.
Of the three missions, the first one was undoubtedly the easiest.
Since the Hall of Blood had taken the initiative to hand over the Spirit Stone Mine, then before the next Large Competition, they would naturally not send anyone to harass them. If he were to become a guardian disciple there, he would be able to spend the next four years in peace. But in this way, his plan to settle his own matters and collect Pure Aura Qi would most likely be ruined. Any Spirit Apostle could take on this position.
The second mission was a bit risky.
After all, the Sect of the Da Xuan Kingdom and the Heishui Kingdom had been enemies for a long time. Although there were no large scale battles between the two countries, it was a common occurrence for cultivators from the two countries to fight at the border.
But in comparison, if he could take on the position of the monastery master of the Mountain Rippling Monastery, then he would have a high position. As long as he carried the name of the Barbarian Ghost Sect, not only would he have a large number of subordinates, it would not be difficult for him to dominate an area. And if he were to take on the position of the monastery master, then even if Gao Chong became a Spirit Master, he would not be able to openly deal with him for a while.
Of course, with this position being so popular, the requirements for the disciple were also extremely high. Not only could the disciple be a Late Spirit Apostle, but they also needed to hand over a large amount of Spirit Stones to the Sect every year. Otherwise, not only would they not be able to keep their position, they would also be severely punished by the sect.
As for the last mission …
Liu Ming's eyes focused on this mission and revealed a thoughtful expression.
