Shangqing school usually took care of Penglai Pavilion and the other righteous sects, but when Shangqing school needed help the most, these sects all chose to seclude themselves.
If seclusion could really protect them, this move could at most be said to be a little heartless.
But in reality, this was not protecting themselves, it was the act of an ostrich hiding its head in the sand. After Black Sky Cult destroyed Shangqing school and greatly increased their strength, they could easily destroy Penglai Pavilion and the other righteous sects.
From a rational point of view, Bai Xiaowen only helped Penglai Pavilion to understand the situation, and walked on the right path to jointly fight against the enemy — — of course, Penglai Pavilion would not thank him, and secretly wished that he would die on the spot.
Bai Xiaowen asked: "Where is Black Sky Cult Leader now?"
Chen Rong: "He has already left Penglai Pavilion's main island. His exact whereabouts are unknown. "
After Black Sky Cult Leader heard the news of the failure to besiege Shangqing school and Qiu Zhenli's death, of course he would not continue to target Penglai Pavilion.
Following the annihilation of Black Sky Cult's large number of elite cult members, and the betrayal of their allied forces, the offensive and defensive positions of Black Sky Cult and the righteous sects had already changed.
Bai Xiaowen said: "Black Sky Cult Leader might have returned to his old nest."
Chen Rong deeply agreed: "Now is the best time to invite our comrades, and pursue the victory. As long as we destroy Black Sky Cult, we will be able to settle this once and for all."
Bai Xiaowen immediately received a notification.
"Epic Side Mission: [Destruction of Black Sky] activated."
"Mission Objective: Destroy Black Sky Cult."
"Mission Difficulty: C +."
"Mission Time Limit: None (Equivalent to the remaining time you can stay in Shao Wei Plane)."
"Mission Reward: 1500 Spirit Crystals."
There was a small line of words behind.
【Note: The specific criteria for annihilating the Black Sky Cult include: Kill all of the Black Sky Cult's Suzerain rank and above (including Suzerain rank), destroy the Black Sky Cult's Main Altar, destroy more than 2/3 of the Black Sky Cult's Branches.】
Bai Xiaowen felt a slight trace of excitement.
Epic Side Mission! This was the first time he encountered it.
Epics corresponded to king-level experts.
It was obvious that the Lord of Black Sky was a King-level powerhouse. That was why the "Destruction of Black Sky" was an Epic-level mission.
In terms of the specific difficulty grading, because the Black Sky Cult was now an arrow at the end of its flight, and the cult's vitality was greatly damaged, the mission difficulty was only C +, and the overall reward was only 1500 spirit crystals.
However, an Epic Quest was an Epic Quest after all. The Light Orb of Enlightenment that he could obtain at the end would definitely be very powerful!
Bai Xiaowen had already used the Lord-level 3B Light Ball of Insight that he had obtained previously. It had pushed the progress of the first chapter of "The Art of War" forward by a large margin. He could already vaguely feel the opportunity for a breakthrough.
If he were to comprehend it again, he would definitely be able to cultivate the first part to the proficient level and advance to level 13.
Bai Xiaowen immediately accepted this mission: "Rong 'er, don't worry, I will definitely do my best to help you destroy the Black Sky Sect."
Chen Rong didn't know that he was touched by that word again. He lowered his head in silence for a while before looking up and saying: "Ah Wang … I am the acting headmaster of the Shangqing school. I will take over the position of headmaster in the future."
Bai Xiaowen nodded, his expression a little puzzled.
Chen Rong continued: "The headmaster of the Shangqing school must become a monk. He is not allowed to marry …"
"Oh." Bai Xiaowen continued to nod.
Chen Rong sighed: "I may not be able to give you a status."
Bai Xiaowen was instantly shocked.
You, give me a status?
Great Sect Leader Chen, did you make a mistake?
Or did I get the era wrong? During the Song dynasty, it was actually not a feudal patriarchal society, but a primitive matriarchal society?
Also, when did I say that I wanted to marry you …
Chen Rong looked at Bai Xiaowen's dazed expression and said with some pity: "Ah Wang, my heart has always been with you. If you care more about a status … "
Bai Xiaowen hurriedly waved his hands: "I don't mind. Ah, no, I …" He didn't know where to start.
Chen Rong laughed: "It's good that you don't mind. Although we don't have a status of husband and wife, we can have … Well, in short, I learned from my master. Although he never married, he had several lovers. "
No, this misunderstanding was getting deeper.
Bai Xiaowen wouldn't play dumb about this kind of thing. He said decisively: "Rong 'er, I already have someone I like."
Chen Rong was stunned for a while before saying: "Is it … the western region woman from the last Shangqing ceremony?"
Bai Xiaowen thought about it and nodded in acknowledgment.
This news was obviously a big blow to Chen Rong. She stood in front of Bai Xiaowen in a daze. For a moment, her thoughts were like a tide, and she didn't know what to say.
Amidst this awkward atmosphere, there was suddenly a burst of noise.
"Someone's here?" Chen Rong abruptly changed the topic: "Strange, I clearly ordered that no one is to disturb you without my permission."
This island in the middle of the lake was already within the range of the mountains behind the Shangqing school. It was usually quiet and secluded. Since Bai Xiaowen needed to cultivate these days, Chen Rong arranged for him to stay here.
Bai Xiaowen looked in the direction of the noise and saw several people coming from the lakeside. They were the Banner Masters under his command.
The leader was Yun Zhongli. The others were also the suzerains of the Three Mountains and Five Islands, leader-level experts.
These Banner Masters ignored the gatekeeping disciple's obstruction and clamored to see "Alliance Leader Lu Wang".
"Invite them over," Bai Xiaowen said, his voice traveling far away.
The gatekeeping disciple agreed and invited the Banner Masters onto the ferry, which sailed towards the island in the middle of the lake.
"Banner Master Yun, is there something urgent?" Bai Xiaowen asked after the group of people had boarded the island in the middle of the lake.
Yun Zhongli and the others seemed very anxious and uneasy.
"Alliance Leader … My family at Changling Mountain has been attacked by the Black Sky Cult! Countless servants and disciples of other surnames have been killed or injured, and forty-one direct relatives have all been kidnapped by the Black Sky Cult! "Yun Zhongli said with a sigh, hopping with anxiety.
Another Banner Master beside him said: "It's the same for my Immortal Visit Island. My entire family has been kidnapped."
Bai Xiaowen looked at the others: "Is it the same for all of you?"
The other Banner Masters all shook their heads.
One of them said: "We haven't received the news yet … but looking at the Black Sky Cult's posture, their next target is very likely to be our families. Everyone is burning with anxiety, so we came to seek an audience with the Alliance Leader. Please forgive us, Alliance Leader. "
Bai Xiaowen said: "I don't blame you for coming to me after such a thing has happened. There's no need to apologize."
Chen Rong said: "Strange, the Black Sky Cult has already been defeated and fled. Right now, they're probably still gathering their defeated troops. How can they still kidnap your families? The timing doesn't match."
Bai Xiaowen shook his head and said: "It shouldn't be the doing of the defeated Black Sky Cult from the previous battle."
"Then who could it be?" Chen Rong asked doubtfully.
"Iron Blood Cliff …" Bai Xiaowen said: "I think it should be the Black Sky Cult's Holy Son Li Yan, Special Envoy Li Chun, and the others I encountered at Iron Blood Cliff. They were unwilling to accept the defeat of Iron Blood Cliff and wanted to use such a despicable method to force Banner Master Yun and the other famous martial artists to submit."
