Hearing the voice, Wei Wu pushed open the door and saw a young man wrapped in a black windbreaker standing by the window, overlooking the brightly lit Ningxiu City.
Wei Wu's expression immediately became serious. He slowly stepped forward and bowed respectfully. "Blue Dragon's disciple, Wei Wu, greets Divine Envoy Vermilion Bird!"
This was not the first time Wei Wu had seen Vermilion Bird. During the battle in the north of Yang 'an City, Wei Wu had seen Vermilion Bird together with White Tiger. At that time, it had left a deep impression on him.
Now, almost two years had passed, but the pressure from the young man in front of him had not lessened. Instead, it made his heart palpitate even more.
He didn't know exactly what level the Vermillion Bird's cultivation had reached, but in terms of strength, the Vermillion Bird could easily kill a protector like him. One must know that Wei Wu's strength was far in the lead among the Wei Clan's core disciples. Even so, he still felt like a child when facing the Vermillion Bird.
"Do you know why I'm here this time?" Qin Lang turned to look at the beautiful young man and slowly said. He was still wearing his iconic Vermilion Bird mask. The person who flashed past in Fragrant Fragrance Restaurant was obviously Qin Lang in disguise.
"Is it because of Divine Envoy Blue Dragon?" Wei Wu asked tentatively.
"How much do you know about Blue Dragon?" Vermilion Bird's expression changed slightly under the mask as he asked.
"I've been in contact with Protector Yin. According to her, Divine Envoy Blue Dragon should not be dead!" Wei Wu said.
"What? You're telling the truth? "Qin Lang's expression immediately changed.
Sensing the change in Vermilion Bird's mood, Wei Wu knew that no one else knew about this matter.
"According to Protector Yin, if Divine Envoy Blue Dragon dies, then the Curse Seal he left on our tongues will disappear. However, the Curse Seal still exists!" After Wei Wu finished speaking, he opened his mouth and gently stuck out his tongue, allowing Vermilion Bird to see the Curse Seal at the root of his tongue.
"However, I only heard this from Enforcer Yin. I don't know the exact situation. The Azure Dragon Divine Envoy didn't tell me that the Seal of the Tongue Severing Root would disappear after his death!" Wei Wu continued.
In his judgment, Lin Long might have deliberately made up this lie because he couldn't accept Blue Dragon's death, so he had to make things clear. Otherwise, if the rumors were proven to be false, he wouldn't have to bear too much responsibility.
At this moment, Qin Lang's heart was beating violently. Although it was only a little bit of hope, it could be regarded as the only evidence they had found to prove that Hayashikawa was still alive.
Taking a deep breath, Qin Lang forcibly suppressed the urge to look for Hayashikawa and said again, "I'm here this time because the organization has a new task for you. The task is not difficult, but you need to have the ability to recognize people."
Wei Wu respectfully listened, and not far away, Wei Qing stood at the door with his head down. He didn't come over because with his qualifications, he didn't have enough qualifications to come in contact with a core member like Divine Envoy Vermilion Bird.
"In other words, I only need to find some talented children and send them to the organization, right?" Wei Wu asked.
Vermilion Bird's meaning was actually very clear. Akatsuki wanted to establish a sect that could support the situation, and now, they didn't lack resources, they didn't lack high-level cultivators, the only thing they lacked was talented youngsters.
And these youngsters weren't cabbages that could be found in the outside world, because if they didn't have enough talent, entering the Ninja Sect would only be a burden and wouldn't produce any value. Such people weren't worth cultivating, not to mention the issue of loyalty.
In this way, relying on the power of the eight great clans of the country of fire became the most reliable and labor-saving method.
These clans had been looking for suitable talents in the outside world for a long time, such as Hayashikawa and Bu Lian Shi, but these clans actually didn't give too many resources to these people, because in the final analysis, they still wanted to develop their own clan's younger generation. Finding these geniuses was nothing more than training them as thugs, and there was almost no one who could really make a difference in the clan.
The reason why these people were willing to enter the big clans was nothing more than to get an opportunity, but the room for growth was really not big, and because of unfair competition, in fact, many people were buried in the dust.
As long as Wei Wu was willing to put in the effort to find them, it was still very easy to find some youngsters. Ninja Sect was originally prepared to walk the path of elites, so they didn't need too many of such people, but quality was enough.
Understanding the meaning of Vermilion Bird, Wei Wu immediately nodded and agreed. This kind of thing wasn't difficult for him.
"In addition, Wei Qing will stay in Ningxiu City, if anything happens, we will find a way to contact you through him. The matter of finding suitable youngsters will be handed over to you, and later we will send someone to pick them up and leave here." Vermilion Bird said.
"Understood!" Wei Wu replied.
"By the way, what about the matter of Fragrant House?" Vermilion Bird asked.
Previously, when he heard Yao Hong insulting Hayashikawa in Fragrant House, he was burning with anger and directly chose to attack. Although doing so was very dangerous, sometimes he didn't want to care about the consequences, especially after Hayashikawa's death, he needed to vent even more.
"It's a bit troublesome, Fragrant House is opened by our clan, and the person who died was a follower of the first successor, Wei Ning, so it has already alarmed the people in the clan. They are now investigating this matter, and it is estimated that Ningxiu City's gate is now closed, so it will be very difficult to leave." Wei Wu said.
He knew that Vermilion Bird would definitely ask about this matter, so before he came, he specifically inquired about it from the clan, and the result he got really heavy.
"I have the Wei Clan's token, Vermilion Bird envoy can use this token to leave the city, but still be careful! This matter is a bit big, so the investigation will be very strict. "Wei Wu took out a token from his storage ring that he had prepared long ago and handed it to Qin Lang.
Vermilion Bird took the token and nodded. With this thing, the risk of leaving the city would be reduced a lot.
"Well done, it seems that I also need to recruit a few protectors." Qin Lang said softly.
Not long after, Wei Wu and Wei Qing left the Qing Xian Restaurant, while Vermilion Bird remained in the room.
Early the next morning, Qin Lang left the Qing Xian Restaurant and went straight out of the city, and as expected, he was subjected to an extremely strict investigation.
However, what Qin Lang didn't expect was that someone seemed to have misestimated his cultivation level, and focused mainly on searching for Yuanying stage cultivators, so that he, a Gold Core stage cultivator, could easily leave Ningxiu City without even using the token. This was also something that Wei Wu didn't expect, because he didn't know what level Vermilion Bird's cultivation level had reached.
