Xun Song's footsteps faltered as soon as he stepped through the gate.
"Song 'er, what's wrong?" Elder Mu asked in surprise.
Xun Song immediately came back to his senses and replied respectfully, "Master, it's nothing. I just … felt a little emotional."
"Hehe …"
Elder Mu smiled amiably with gratification in his eyes.
"After walking through life and death, it's inevitable for one to feel emotional. Not to mention you, even I can't avoid it. However, what you need to do is not just to feel emotional. Instead, you need to transform the various experiences in this trip into your own gains and pave the road ahead even wider."
"Thank you for your teachings, Master."
Xun Song wasn't sighing with emotion because he was lucky enough to survive the failed Seed Demon General attempt and return to the sect …
Rather, he really wanted to look back the instant he stepped through the gate.
In reality, he didn't know if he would be able to see the scavenger crawl into the hole in his blurry memory if he turned around …
However, he just wanted to see it.
This would only make him more familiar with Tai.
"Mo Blasphemy statue …
"Golden dragon …
"Save me …
"Two more times …"
…
Xun Song would sneer in his heart every time he walked a certain distance, erasing some of the humiliation he had suffered.
Xun Song, who had returned to the sect, had fundamentally changed.
In fact, when he entered his master's cave abode, he didn't even pretend to let his ten senior brothers enter first. Instead, he followed his master closely and became the second person in the sect.
However, Xie Tian, who had come to the Hunyuan Immortal Sect, hadn't changed at all.
He never had the self-awareness of being Lu Feiyang in this life.
The young master of the Lu Family?
He had a wife who was once an emperor?
He had once blocked an emperor's charge?
He had thrashed the Six Paths of Reincarnation Physique Ming Qin?
He had conveniently slapped Young Master Shang in the face?
None of this could change Xie Tian's mindset as a country bumpkin in the Kingdom of the Nine States.
It was precisely because he placed himself in the role of a bumpkin that Xie Tian excitedly drilled through the six-feet-tall hole under Wu Shao's furious gaze and curiously sized up the interior of the Hunyuan Immortal Sect's base.
Because of this, Wu Dong, who was about to enter the cave, staggered and almost fell.
Feng Po, who was outside the cave, sighed inwardly. He thought for a moment and walked up to Wu Dong. He found that there was indeed something wrong with Wu Dong's expression. He immediately smiled and said, "I'm really sorry, but this is the sect's rule. Even I can't …"
Unexpectedly, before he could finish his explanation, Wu Dong's expression returned to normal. He looked at Feng Po and asked, "Elder, what are you talking about?"
"Uh …" Feng Po was stunned. He shook his head and sighed. "Pretend that I didn't say anything. You two go in and settle down first. I'll come find you later."
"Farewell, Senior."
Watching Feng Po leave, Wu Dong muttered expressionlessly, "Foolish human, you don't know anything at all …"
The guard guarding the entrance of the cave naturally saw Feng Po behind the two scavengers, and he was somewhat surprised.
"Senior Brother Feng Po from Elder Mu's faction?"
"He actually personally sent two scavengers over … Hiss!"
"Remember their faces … Eh? He, he, he, what did he say? "
"I think … I think he said foolish human?"
"F * ck, who … who did he say?"
…
Just as the two guards were thinking about this very serious matter, Wu Dong also entered the cave that he had named the dog cave.
Even though the dog cave was six feet tall and three feet wide, which was enough for six people to pass through side by side, he felt that the two words "dog cave" truly lived up to its name.
The Hunyuan Immortal Sect, one of the two great clouds, used this dog cave to endlessly humiliate many scavengers day and night.
Even if they were willing to live in a place that was ignored by all living beings …
Wu Dong felt that every scavenger who passed through this cave would definitely feel different degrees of shame.
However, after Xie Tian took the lead, he was abnormally calm as he walked through the dog cave. There was even a hint of mockery in his calmness.
This hint of mockery hung on the corner of his mouth, causing Xie Tian to be puzzled. It also caused a deacon in charge of the Hunyuan Immortal Sect's scavengers to frown.
However, very soon, this deacon, who was frowning and thinking about how to deal with the two unfamiliar scavengers, received a notification from the guards.
"Senior Brother Feng Po?"
The gloomy deacon in Xie Tian's eyes revealed a hearty smile, as if the clouds had dispersed to see the sun.
"Hehe, since the two of you were recommended by Senior Brother Feng Po, you will naturally receive treatment that is above the standard. I'm not bragging, but among the two clouds, three waters, and four mountains, if the Hunyuan Immortal Sect dares to say that it is second, no one dares to say that they are first!"
Facing a polite senior, Xie Tian naturally responded politely.
However, this kind of behavior caused him to be second, while Wu Dong was the leader.
Thus, the deacon's gaze quickly returned from Xie Tian to Wu Dong.
"Fellow Daoist, please!"
The entire process of settling them down was completely led by a deacon of the Hunyuan Immortal Sect …
This kind of behavior gave the two of them a special feeling. It was enough to tell every scavenger in the Hunyuan Immortal Sect that these two were not ordinary. The one who was even more extraordinary was naturally Wu Dong, who had a mocking expression on his face and walked steadily.
After settling them down with great difficulty, Deacon Shi politely bid farewell. As soon as he left Wu Dong's cave abode, he let out a long breath.
"Damn it, no wonder he dared to mock me. Feng Po … His background is not small …"
Not long after, Feng Po's arrival and his behavior of staying in Wu Dong's cave abode for a full hour before leaving also increased the attention of the living beings in this world of scavengers to the two of them.
This naturally affected the following mission assignments for Wu Dong and Feng Po.
Missions were necessary.
After flipping through the general knowledge of scavengers given by the deacon, Xie Tian knew that as a scavenger, the only way to come into contact with the Heaven's Equal Killing Method was through military merit.
Missions were the most important source of military merit for scavengers.
"Fellow Daoist Wu, why don't you rest for a few more days?" Deacon Shi said with a frown when he saw Wu Dong and Feng Po coming to accept the mission. "Other scavengers are fine, but you two don't have to worry at all. Your names will definitely not appear on the scavengers' list!"
The so-called scavengers' list was a detailed record of the scavengers of the Hunyuan Immortal Sect who went out to carry out missions.
The scavengers' list stated that scavengers who returned from missions had to accept at least one mission within a year.
A year might seem like a long time, but in the Human-Demon Battlefield, a year was equivalent to ten days in the Nine Heavens Universe …
After all, just leaving the South-Heaven Gate would take a lot of time.
"I'm short of military merit."
Wu Kuang faintly responded to Officer Shi's kindness with three words.
Deacon Shi smiled and took out the mission token. After browsing for a while, he said in surprise, "This mission is very suitable for the two of you!"
"Let me see!" Xie Tian took the mission token and looked at it. He frowned and said, "Only sixty military merit, too little … Deacon Shi, I think this is not bad. Let's accept it."
Deacon Shi looked down and his eyes almost popped out. He immediately looked at Wu Dong and was about to say something …
"Whatever he chooses, let's go," Wu Dong said calmly.
Xie Tian happily accepted the mission and said respectfully, "Deacon Shi, this junior will take his leave."
After that, he left with Wu Dong.
Deacon Shi did not have the chance to stop him during the whole process.
An hour later, as if his father had died, he ran out with a ghastly pale face, and his scream resounded through the sky.
"Hurry, hurry, hurry, hurry, inform Senior Brother Feng Po that the two scavengers he brought are going to the Burning Sun Valley!"
