The atmosphere in the Haishan Palace was majestic. All the elders had gathered. Such a scene was rarely seen in a year.
After receiving Tian Lie's praise, Liu Panshan sat back in his chair with satisfaction. The surrounding elders all looked at him and expressed their encouragement. After all, Liu Panshan had helped them solve the last difficult task.
At this time, Tian Lie, who was sitting on the main seat, said loudly again, "The first thing has been solved. Now let's talk about the second thing!"
Hearing this, everyone quieted down and looked at Tian Lie. They really didn't know what else to say.
"The second thing is an order from the head himself." Tian Lie frowned and said loudly, "A few days ago, the royal family sent a message to Mount Tianshan, saying that some people in the west of Tiancheng Country are conspiring with various forces to rebel and ask for our help!"
"According to the royal family's intelligence, there are likely to be a large number of Taoist Masters among the rebels, so the head ordered us to send three elders from each mountain to carry out the task. Who is willing to go?" Tian Lie asked loudly.
As soon as he said this, everyone was stunned again. They looked at each other, their eyes full of reluctance.
This matter was more troublesome than the previous one. If they messed up the previous one, they would only need to be scolded, but this one was likely to cost them their lives!
It was not uncommon for people to rebel, and it would even happen once every few years. Although the Dacheng Heavenly Mountain would win every time they attacked, casualties were inevitable. In the past 20 years, at least dozens of elders had died outside!
They had cultivated to this point and achieved their current status because they had put in too much effort and hard work. It was also because they understood that it was not easy to achieve this status that they were even more unwilling to do such a thing.
Being alive was much better than being dead.
Looking at the atmosphere that was even more depressing than before, Tian Lie's face darkened again. However, this time he was not as angry as before, because he could understand these people's thoughts.
"No one is willing to do it?" Tian Lie raised his head and said loudly, "If no one is willing, then I'll call the names! Let me tell you, the three elders in charge of training just now don't need to go! "
Hearing this, the three elders were overjoyed. They thought they had taken on a difficult task, but now they laughed out loud! The other elders looked at them enviously. If they had known this, they would have rushed to train the disciples!
"Chen Wuyong!" Suddenly, Tian Lie shouted in a very gloomy voice, "You go!"
Chen Wuyong was stunned and turned to look at Tian Lie.
Not only him, but everyone else was also stunned. Logically speaking, this mission had to be carried out by powerful people. After all, it represented the reputation of the Celestial Mountain and the Blue Water Peak. But this Chen Wuyong had been living like a beggar for the past few years. Wasn't that clearly embarrassing?
However, there was no hesitation in Tian Lie's eyes at all. It was as if he had already thought it through. He looked at Chen Wuyong coldly and asked loudly, "Do you have any objections?"
Seeing this, Chen Wuyong frowned slightly, leaned back, and said lightly, "No."
"That's good!" Tian Lie sneered, turned his head to the other side, and said loudly, "Mo Teng, you go too!"
As soon as he said this, everyone was stunned again!
Mo Teng was the most senior amongst all the elders. Most importantly, he had fought for Mastery Sky Mountain many times, more than anyone else here! Logically speaking, no one should be allowed to go!
Mo Teng frowned and turned his head to look at Tian Lie, who was sitting at the head of the table. His eyes flashed as he asked, "Why should I go?"
"Elder Mo has fought for Mastery Sky Mountain many times. You must be very experienced. With you leading the team, the Blue Water Peak will not be embarrassed. "Tian Lie smiled and said lightly," Could it be that Elder Mo thinks you're too old to go? "
"Hmph!" Mo Teng slammed the chair, causing the surrounding ground to tremble. All the elders were shocked and did not even dare to breathe loudly!
"Peak Master Tian, what a scheme!" Mo Teng sneered and said sarcastically, "If you want me to go, I have to go even if I don't want to. It's just that I'm here for Mastery Sky Mountain, unlike some people who are born cowards! "
Hearing this, Tian Lie's eyes narrowed and he clenched his fists instantly!
In an instant, an invincible pressure spread out and rushed toward Mo Teng! The surrounding elders felt their chests tighten when they felt this pressure. At the same time, they were shocked by Tian Lie's cultivation!
Was this power really only at the peak of Level 4?
Feeling this pressure, Mo Teng frowned and instantly released his Divine Origin Force to resist it. In an instant, the entire Sea Peak Palace shook, but no one dared to stop it.
Bang!
Suddenly, Mo Teng's chair exploded without warning and Mo Teng, who was sitting on it, fell to the ground! At the same time, Mo Teng groaned and raised his hand to cover his chest!
The pressure in the main hall suddenly disappeared and everyone heaved a sigh of relief. They realized that their backs were covered in cold sweat!
When the elders saw Mo Teng fall, they did not know whether to help him or not. For a moment, no one stepped forward to help. However, one person stood up immediately. This person was none other than Chen Wuyong!
"Elder Mo, are you alright?" Chen Wuyong quickly walked to Mo Teng's side and helped him up from the ground. At the same time, he channeled his Divine Origin Force into Mo Teng's body to help him stabilize his breathing.
Mo Teng immediately felt his Qi and blood flow smoother. He nodded slightly and said gratefully, "I'm fine. Thank you very much!"
"Mm." Chen Wuyong nodded and turned to walk back to his seat.
Mo Teng suddenly turned his head to look at Tian Lie, who was sitting on the main seat. Tian Lie snorted coldly and left with a flick of his sleeve!
The elders watched Mo Teng leave, but no one tried to stop him. Tian Lie did not say anything. He only looked at the back of Mo Teng and sneered.
"There's one more person." Tian Lie looked around and said loudly. Under his gaze, the elders all lowered their heads, afraid that they would be chosen.
In fact, Tian Lie had already thought of the first two people, but he did not choose the last person. Looking around, he didn't know who to send. Just as he was hesitating, he suddenly saw an empty seat and his eyes lit up.
"The third person, let Wei Tao go!" Tian Lie sneered and said loudly, "Elder Yu, you are responsible for informing him!"
"Yes!"
When everyone heard that the dust had settled, they finally heaved a sigh of relief. Then, they looked at the empty seat with some ridicule. Who told you not to come? Now you're finished, right?
"There's one last thing!" Tian Lie said and continued, "This matter is very simple and has nothing to do with you. Recently, someone found a cave near a lake in the southwest of Da Cheng Sky Mountain. There are many good things inside, but they are only useful for level one Heavenly Masters. Therefore, Da Cheng Sky Mountain wants to let the talented level one disciples try their luck and see if they can find some good fortune. "
"As for the number of people, each of the five outer peaks will have three spots. In addition to the 15 spots from the inner peak, there will be a total of 30 people going. Now, I need to hear your opinions. "Tian Lie looked around and said loudly.
Before Tian Lie could finish his words, all the Elders frowned and began to discuss.
"Three people?"
"Why are there only three people? That's too little! "
"That's right, we have seven mountains. How are we going to split them?"
"…"
For a moment, the seven elders were discussing. None of them wanted to give in on such a fortuitous thing. They tried their best to fight for their disciples. For a moment, the seven elders were arguing, and no one was willing to compromise.
Just as the situation reached a stalemate, someone suddenly stood up. This person was none other than Liu Panshan!
"Everyone, listen to me!" Liu Panshan looked around, smiled, and said loudly, "This spot is very precious, so it should be taken by the capable. The Sect Leader also said that he hopes that the talented people will go. Why don't we go according to the rankings from two days ago? "
As soon as he said that, some people agreed and some objected. Of course, there were more people who objected. Because if they went according to that, Liu Panshan's disciple, Li Hang, would definitely go.
"How can that be? Some disciples are very talented, but they haven't grown up yet. What should we do? "
"That's right! Strength doesn't represent talent. Li Hang isn't young, and his talent isn't that high! "
"…"
Tian Lie's eyes narrowed, and his face darkened.
At this moment, someone suddenly said in a cold voice, "I don't care about the others, but Lu An must go!"
As soon as he said that, the entire place fell silent!
Everyone hurriedly looked over and saw that it was indeed Chen Wuyong who had spoken! Before anyone could speak, Liu Panshan was the first to speak!
"A person with a special technique, is he worthy?" Liu Panshan sneered and said, "We haven't even checked his background. What right does he have to enjoy the good fortune of Da Cheng Sky Mountain?"
"He's not worthy, but Li Hang is?" Chen Wuyong sneered and said, "Whether it's age, talent, or strength, which point does Li Hang have that can compare to Lu An? Or you can find someone more talented than Lu An, and I'll give up. If you can't find someone, and Lu An can't go, I won't agree! "
"Presumptuous! This matter is decided by the peak master. What's the use of your agreement? Are you going to disobey? "Liu Panshan shouted angrily.
Chen Wuyong narrowed his eyes and looked up at Tian Lie who was sitting on the main seat. At this moment, Tian Lie was also looking at him with a gloomy expression.
"Lu An must go." Chen Wuyong said without any room for negotiation. He said lightly, "Otherwise, don't blame me for making a big deal out of this!"
"You!" Liu Panshan's face changed drastically. He pointed at Chen Wuyong's face and was so angry that he couldn't say a word!
Not only him, but Tian Lie's face also darkened. He looked at Chen Wuyong, and the muscles on his face were even trembling.
Threat.
This was a naked threat!
However, when he thought of how Chen Wuyong had obtained the Vice Sect Master's handwritten order the day before yesterday, Tian Lie couldn't help but be afraid. Looking at Chen Wuyong's determined look, Tian Lie gradually clenched his teeth.
"Good!" Tian Lie suddenly roared and slammed the table. He shouted, "I'll give you face, but if you or Lu An embarrass my Blue Water Peak, don't blame me for being ruthless!"
