Miao Yi smiled bitterly, "That person lives a more carefree life than a deity. He has always been free and unfettered. He might have gone out to play."
"There are many demons and ghosts in this world. Would you believe a mortal living on an island far away from the mortal world? The trees in front of the abode are at least ten years old. You want to tell me that person has gone out to play for ten years and hasn't returned? Make it up! Keep making it up! "
Yao Ruoxian laughed coldly. A mace artifact fell into his hand, and he looked like he was sharpening his blade to kill.
Miao Yi hurriedly raised his hand to stop him, "Senior, don't be hasty! What you want are the tiny mantids, not my life. It won't be too late to make a move after listening to what I have to say. "
With a flip of his palm, eighty-five tiny mantids flew out from the storage ring.
Yao Ruoxian's eyes began to shine as soon as he saw the little ones.
"How about I give them to you?" Miao Yi asked shamelessly.
He had no other choice. He was fine after running all the way to the Sea of Constellations and fighting with so many demons. In the end, he fell into the hands of this tortoise bastard. He was extremely depressed.
"If they can't be controlled by me, why would I want them?" Yao Ruoxian was furious. Miao Yi was purposely taking out a piece of meat that he couldn't have.
"Actually, it's not completely impossible to control them. But it will take time. You will need to spend a long time with them to slowly establish a telepathic connection. I'm afraid you can't wait that long!"
For the sake of survival, Miao Yi could only spout nonsense and delay. Who told him to not be able to find Lao Bai here?
"Really?" Yao Ruoxian was taken aback. It was possible that they would gradually become familiar with each other after a long time. He asked suspiciously, "You aren't being too honest. Are you trying to delay me? How long do you need to establish a telepathic connection with them? "
Miao Yi probed, "Maybe ten years. I will try my best to get them familiar with you during this time."
He was completely focused on preserving his own life first. Now he finally understood Pi Junzi's desire to live.
"Ten years?" Yao Ruoxian pondered for a moment. For someone like him who had lived for more than a thousand years, waiting for a mere ten years was nothing. "Alright. I just happen to be lacking an errand boy. You can stay by my side and work on this. If you dare to play any tricks, you'll be in for a treat. Come with me!"
"Ah!" Miao Yi was stunned. "You want me to go with you?"
Yao Ruoxian glared at him and said, "If you don't come with me, will these little guys listen to me? What, you want to take this opportunity to escape? Brat, I advise you to come with me. At the very least, this old man can still afford the Orbs of Will needed to help you break through to the Blue Lotus realm. You'll be able to take advantage of this opportunity. "
Miao Yi smiled bitterly and said, "I do want to go with you. If it were a few years earlier, I wouldn't have any problems going with you. Perhaps I would even be more than happy to do so. However, I regret not having met you earlier. Even if I wanted to go with you, I'm afraid you wouldn't dare to take me with you. Unless Senior kills me now and doesn't let anyone know, or if I leave with you and don't show my face in public for the rest of my life, I'll die sooner or later, and I'll drag Senior down with me. "
Yao Ruoxian furrowed his brows and asked, "What do you mean?"
Miao Yi coughed dryly and said, "Senior, I won't hide it from you now. 'Niu Youde' isn't my real name. My name is Miao Yi, and I'm the Cave Master of East Arrival Cave under the Celestial Nation's Fifth Earthly Branch's South Edict Manor. I brought my subordinates on an adventure in the Sea of Constellations, and in the end, they were completely annihilated. There's only a little more than a month left before the Orbs of Will will be collected. If I don't report back, once this year is over, I'll immediately be on the Celestial Nation's wanted list. You can imagine the consequences.
Senior, are you sure you still dare to take me with you? "The organization under the Six Sages wasn't a restaurant that anyone could come and go as they pleased. You had to pay to eat in the restaurant, so how could you come and go as you pleased? If the rules were really broken and everyone came and went as they pleased, wouldn't the rules established by the Six Sages become child's play? How would they be able to control the world then?
What's more, Miao Yi was the Cave Master of a Cave. Not only did he not think of a way to report back after causing the entire Cave's forces to be annihilated, he even wanted to run away as if nothing had happened? The level of his wanted list would definitely be raised by another level!
In short, those who escaped without permission were criminals. Those who knew the truth and didn't report it, or those who harbored criminals, would all be punished as an accomplice. Even if they were caught, they would be executed!
No matter how powerful Yao Ruoxian was, he wouldn't dare to go against the Six Sages. However, he seemed to be in disbelief as he said, "Stinking brat, are you joking? A White Lotus Third Grade cultivator can also become a Cave Master? "
This was easy to deal with. Miao Yi took out a Jade Archive of Appointment from his storage ring, and handed it over to Yao Ruoxian to examine.
After looking through the Jade Archive of Appointment, Yao Ruoxian's expression twitched. "Is there no one else in the Celestial Nation that can be used? They actually let a White Lotus Third Grade cultivator like you become a Cave Master? "
Miao Yi spread out his hands, and helplessly said, "Senior, it's impossible for this Junior to leave with you. Of course, you can also forcefully take this Junior away and hide him for ten years, not allowing this Junior to show his face. Once you've established a telepathic link with the tiny mantids, you can then kill this Junior. You can also kill this Junior now, and no one will know that it was you who did it. However, without this Junior's help, you definitely won't be able to smoothly control them. "
The meaning behind his words was very clear. 'As long as I leave with you, only death awaits me. I'll die either way. Do you think I'll still leave with you?'
Yao Ruoxian's face darkened, and he pointed at the little fellow fluttering by his side. "You've been fooling me for a few months, and this is how you want to settle things?"
"That's not what I meant. Why don't Senior come with me! Come back to East Arrival Cave with me, and join my East Arrival Cave. I can even help you get rid of your identity as a Loose Cultivator. Really, my relationship with our Manor Head isn't bad. As long as I report it, it shouldn't be a problem for them to register you and give you an official identity. "
"Ugh … What kind of joke is this? You want me to be your subordinate? "
Yao Ruoxian was shocked. He realized that this bastard really dared to dream. A mere White Lotus Third Grade cultivator actually wanted to take a Red Lotus Second Grade cultivator like him as his subordinate. Wasn't he afraid of being stuffed to death...
In Ever Peace Manor, in the silent quarters where the Manor Head cultivated, a map was spread out on the stone couch. Manor Head Zhang Decheng and Suppressing Second Hall's Deacon Wan Shunchang sat cross-legged on the other side of the map.
Gazing at the map of Suppressing Second Hall's territory, Zhang Decheng stroked the short beard on his forehead. He lightly shook his head and said, "Yang Qing isn't someone to be trifled with. Once we mobilize a large number of troops, Yang Qing will definitely be alerted. If we were to charge straight in, I'm afraid that before our men could even reach South Edict Manor, Yang Qing would have already organized his forces to resist. If we were to clash head on, I'm afraid that our side will suffer heavy losses. You must know that Yang Qing still has the School of Blue Jade's support behind him."
He didn't want to risk his life for the sake of someone else's benefit.
Wan Shunchang stared at the map and lightly nodded. "Indeed. Although the School of Blue Jade and Yang Qing aren't on good terms, for the sake of protecting their common interests, they will indeed join forces and attack. If we clash head on, it will be very difficult for us to gain the upper hand. That's why we have to take advantage of the fact that Yang Qing doesn't have the time to mobilize all of South Edict and the School of Blue Jade's forces and catch him off guard. We will definitely succeed in one fell swoop!"
His finger pointed towards Mount Calming Sea, and heavily tapped the position of Mount Calming Sea on the map.
"Mount Calming Sea?" Zhang Decheng asked suspiciously. "I'm sure Brother Wan has been planning this for a long time. You must have a well-thought-out plan. Please tell me."
Wan Shunchang replied, "Mount Calming Sea's Mountain Chieftain Qin Weiwei is Yang Qing's adopted daughter. According to what I know, Yang Qing and this adopted daughter of his have an unusual relationship. They are like biological father and daughter. We can start with Qin Weiwei. If anything happens to Qin Weiwei, Yang Qing will definitely come to save her. If he doesn't even save his own adopted daughter, his subordinates will definitely be bitterly disappointed. If anything happens again, who would still be willing to risk their lives for him? It will be easier to make a move against him in the future. Yang Qing can't afford to pay this price. "
Zhang Decheng lightly shook his head. "I'm afraid it won't work. The distance between Mount Calming Sea's Manor and South Edict Manor isn't very far. At the very least, it's closer than our distance. If something happens, before our forces can arrive, I'm afraid Yang Qing will already be one step ahead of us."
"That's why we have to lure Qin Weiwei out of her hole, and make her stay far away from Mount Calming Sea's Manor."
"How are we going to lure the snake out of its hole?"
Wan Shunchang's finger shifted, brazenly pointing at East Arrival Cave. "This place is close to the ocean, and is the furthest place within Mount Calming Sea's territory. We can lure Qin Weiwei here. The Mount Heavenly Grace tribe under Brother Zhang's command is adjacent to Mount Calming Sea, and Mount Heavenly Grace's Emerald Forest Cave is also connected to Mount Calming Sea's East Arrival Cave. Brother Zhang can secretly make arrangements. On the surface, we won't make any moves, so as to prevent Yang Qing from alerting the snake. We only need to first order Mount Heavenly Grace tribe's Emerald Forest Cave to attack East Arrival Cave … Now that the end of the year is approaching, the day of harvesting Orbs of Will is not far away. If East Arrival Cave is attacked, as long as Qin Weiwei receives the news, she will definitely lead her men to rush over to the rescue. Luring the snake out of its hole will be a success! "
Zhang Decheng hesitantly nodded his head. "What should we do after luring Qin Weiwei out?"
Wan Shunchang grinned maliciously. "When Qin Weiwei arrives, immediately order Emerald Forest Cave to retreat, luring her into giving chase. This will further increase the distance between Qin Weiwei and the possible reinforcements. Meanwhile, Mount Heavenly Grace tribe can set up an ambush and await Qin Weiwei's arrival. To avoid any mishaps, we can order another mountain of troops to rush to Mount Heavenly Grace tribe's aid. Trap Qin Weiwei, and besiege her to attack the reinforcements. When Yang Qing receives the news, he will definitely rush over to the rescue. At that time, Yang Qing won't be able to gather all his troops in a short period of time. As long as Yang Qing makes a move, Brother Zhang's army will immediately set off. Using Qin Weiwei as bait, we can lure Yang Qing's lone army to come forth. With numbers, how can we not win?! "
Zhang Decheng secretly praised him in his heart. He couldn't help but raise his head to look at him. To be able to come up with such a plan, this guy must have spent a lot of time, effort, and effort to get a piece of South Edict Manor.
However, Zhang Decheng wasn't a living Bodhisattva. He wouldn't do something that harmed others without benefiting himself.
With a solemn expression for a moment, he hesitantly said, "Brother Wan's plan can be said to be thorough. But Brother Wan mustn't forget that Yang Qing has a third grade transcendent artifact borrowed from the School of Blue Jade. This is what Yang Qing is relying on to keep watch over South Edict. I, Zhang, admit that I can't stop him!"
Wan Shunchang smiled. "Brother Zhang can be at ease. How could I let Brother Zhang fight a battle that you're not confident in? That wouldn't benefit me in any way. I've already made some discreet inquiries. Yang Qing has already returned that third grade transcendent artifact to the School of Blue Jade's Sect Master. It's just that he hasn't announced it to the public."
Zhang Decheng let out an 'Oh' and felt relieved. However, he remained silent and didn't say a word.
'They're all bastards who won't wake up without benefits!' Wan Shunchang cursed in his heart.
