Not to mention them, even the head of Purple Golden Cave, Gong Lince, had never seen the new female disciple of Purple Golden Cave.
"Head, Wen Mo 'er is here." Yue Yuan, who was leading the people in, reminded him and then turned around to let Gong Lince see the person behind him.
Gong Lince, who was sitting behind the desk and looking through a pile of papers, raised his head. The beautiful disciple in front of him surprised him a little. He secretly sighed in his heart that he didn't know there was such a beautiful disciple in the sect.
There were so many people in such a big sect. He didn't have the energy to get to know all the disciples one by one. He wasn't someone that ordinary disciples could see whenever they wanted to.
The good impression he had of the beautiful disciple in his heart was quickly suppressed. At his level, he had to restrain some of his selfish desires.
He had already known the situation of the selected disciple in advance. She was good in all aspects, so it attracted a lot of trouble.
A beauty with good conditions would naturally attract the covetous eyes of those with power and influence in the sect. Outstanding disciples would like to marry a phoenix, and some of those with power and influence would also be tempted. They would give up on the idea of never marrying for the rest of their lives, and were prepared to add a burden to their lives.
According to the situation reported by Yue Yuan, this Wen Mo 'er was a little tactless. She refused to yield in the face of power, or it could be said that she thought highly of herself. She didn't like any of the outstanding disciples in the sect. Or it could be said that she only wanted to soar to the sky and only wanted to cultivate. She didn't want to have any romantic feelings.
Anyway, this Wen Mo 'er said that she only wanted to focus on cultivation and didn't want to think about romantic feelings.
Purple Golden Cave was, after all, a regular sect with the protection of the sect rules. No one could do anything to her for the time being. Some people just wanted her to yield, but they didn't want to kill her.
However, she offended people because she didn't know what was good for her. It was easy for the powerful disciples in the sect to mess with her. As a result, she was forced to do odd jobs in a corner. She had nothing to do with the glamorous things, and her cultivation resources were often embezzled. Even so, her cultivation talent was indeed not bad, and she still managed to cultivate to the Foundation Building realm.
Even though she had been messed with for a long time, she still refused to yield.
Because this woman had offended many people, Yue Yuan didn't want to offend anyone because of her, so when Gong Lince asked him to select suitable disciples, he excluded this woman.
However, Gong Lince was disdainful of the other female disciples after reading the detailed information on the list. He even said that they were "mediocre". Yue Yuan didn't know whether to laugh or cry. How could a leader evaluate a disciple like this? Recruiting disciples was not a talent show!
Gong Lince was dissatisfied with the list of names submitted twice in a row. Gong Lince asked him if he really couldn't find a suitable candidate in such a big Purple Golden Cave, or did he not try his best?
Yue Yuan had no other choice. The Sect Leader was very concerned about this matter. When he returned, he would investigate it in detail. If he did not report it, it would be inexcusable. Hence, he mentioned Wen Mo 'er.
In the end, Gong Lince was very interested and asked why he didn't read the morning newspaper. Yue Yuan said that the disciples did not have a good impression of this girl, and he was afraid that it would affect Gong Lince's matter.
No matter who it was, Gong Lince wanted to make the final decision because he wanted to succeed in one strike!
Gong Lince immediately asked for the person to be sent over to take a look. Hence, this scene happened.
"Disciple Wen Mo 'er pays respect to Cave Master!" Wen Mo' er bowed respectfully. She was neither servile nor overbearing.
Gong Lince sized her up and nodded in his heart. In terms of appearance, there was absolutely nothing to say. She passed. He said lightly, "Dispense with the formalities."
Wen Mo 'er stood with her hands clasped. She didn't dare to look straight at him. She lowered her head slightly, looking like she was waiting for orders.
At this moment, the sound of galloping horses outside grew louder. Gong Lince looked outside the tent.
Yue Yuan understood and quickly went outside to take a look. Then, he quickly returned and reported, "Sect Leader, the Prince's army is about to set off."
Gong Lince stood up and walked out from behind the long table. When he passed by Wen Mo 'er, he suddenly stopped and asked, "Yan Nanzhou's Niu Youdao, have you heard of him?"
Wen Mo 'er raised her bright eyes and looked at him. Then, she quickly lowered her gaze and replied respectfully, "I've heard of him. This disciple doesn't know much."
Gong Lince pointed to the pile of papers on the table. "Take a look at the situation on the papers. This seat and Elder Yue will send Prince Yong off!"
"Yes!" Wen Mo 'er bowed and accepted the order.
Gong Lince flicked his sleeves and strode away.
Niu Youdao? Yue Yuan muttered in his heart. He glanced at Wen Mo 'er and seemed to have guessed something. Then, he quickly followed Gong Lince and left.
There was no one in the tent except for the noise coming from outside. Wen Mo 'er looked around and slowly walked to the table. She took the pile of papers and flipped through them. She saw the words "Niu Youdao". Reading them in order, she realized that they were specially arranged information related to Niu Youdao.
She didn't know why the Sect Leader wanted her to look at this, but she knew that for the Sect Leader to summon her here, there must be something he wanted her to do. Maybe it had something to do with this Niu Youdao. She calmed herself down and carefully read the contents of the papers …
The cavalry of the Southern Region had assembled. Shang Chaozong wanted to lead the army to the Southern Region. The important members of the army all showed up to see him off.
The three major sects had no objection to this. After all, it was no longer a personal grudge between the Southern Region and Zhao. It had already involved the possibility of Zhao offending Yan, which threatened the interests of the three major sects. Since Shang Chaozong wanted to defend Yan Country against this threat, the three major sects naturally wouldn't oppose it.
After some small talk, Shang Chaozong and Feng Ruonan both mounted their horses. Under the gaze of the crowd, they led the cavalry of the Southern Region and galloped away, raising a cloud of dust.
Huang Lie and the other cultivators of the Great Zen Mountain also accompanied them.
After the crowd dispersed, the Great Zen Mountain Elder Huang Tong came to Huang Lie's side and whispered, "Sect Leader, I've inquired about that woman. The other sects have never seen or heard of this person. They don't know what kind of person she is in the Purple Golden Cave. The disciples of the Purple Golden Cave are tight-lipped and refuse to easily leak the information. Even Xiao Yao Palace and Spirit Sword Mountain don't know about her, so she's definitely not someone important in the Purple Golden Cave. Otherwise, it's impossible for the two sects not to know about her. "
Huang Lie furrowed his brows. "That's strange. How could a person who could come to the army to meet Gong Lince and be escorted by flying beasts be a nobody?"
Huang Tong looked around and whispered, "Could it be that she's Gong Lince's secret lover, so he kept it a secret?"
Huang Lie glanced at him. "What kind of occasion is this? Do you think Gong Lince would be so shameless?"
Huang Tong spread out his hands as if to say, then I can't figure it out for the time being …
"Sect Leader, Elder." Seeing that Gong Lince and Yue Yuan had returned, Wen Mo 'er, who was standing quietly in the tent, once again greeted them.
Gong Lince glanced at the paper that had been neatly arranged on the table and asked, "Have you read it?"
"Yes!" Wen Mo 'er bowed.
Gong Lince turned his head and signaled Yue Yuan to leave.
"…" Yue Yuan was speechless. He wanted to figure out what was going on, but he was told to leave.
He didn't have a temper and could only leave.
Gong Lince walked back to the table and sat down. He glanced at the name on the paper and placed his hand on the paper. "What do you think of this person?"
Wen Mo 'er hurriedly said, "This disciple doesn't dare to make a rash judgment."
To be honest, she was suddenly summoned by the Sect Leader and was specially picked up by a large bird. It seemed like he was going to personally arrange things. No matter how calm she was, she was still overwhelmed by the favor.
From this, it could be seen that she wasn't someone who didn't know her limits! Gong Lince nodded slightly and evaluated her in his heart. He then said, "It's fine. Just say what you think. I won't punish you for it."
"Yes!" Wen Mo 'er bowed again and organized her thoughts. She said in a pleasant voice, "This disciple is ignorant and inexperienced. I've only heard about this Niu Youdao by chance. What I know isn't even the tip of the iceberg. Today, after seeing the reasoning on the table, I know that this person played a huge role in Shang Chaozong's rise in Nan Province. When the Yan army fought against the Song army, even when the Wan Shou Sect interfered, he was still able to turn the tide. Under the treacherous clouds, he indeed has the ability to turn the clouds and rain. This person has made great contributions to Nan Province time and time again, but he doesn't take credit for it. He's a capable person who doesn't like to show off and only likes to hide behind the scenes … This is just this disciple's humble opinion. If I'm wrong, I'm willing to listen to the Sect Leader's advice. "
"You don't dare to say much. But even though it's just a point, what you said isn't wrong." Gong Lince picked up a stack of papers on the table and waved them around. "This is only what we know and have gathered. This Niu Youdao lives in seclusion and no one can figure out his whereabouts. He doesn't have much power in Nan Province, but he's able to compete with Heavenly Jade Sect and Great Zen Mountain and control Nan Province. This foundation isn't built in a day, and it's not something that can be built with a few things. We don't know how many more things he has done behind the scenes."
He threw the papers in his hand back onto the table. "Even to this day, he's still hiding. He suddenly makes a move and then suddenly withdraws his hand. He'll hit the target with one strike! As cultivators, most of our energy is spent on cultivation. Most of us are quick to repay kindness and hatred. We fight and kill, and speak with our strength. We're not good at things that are too roundabout. It's rare to see someone like him who can balance cultivation and worldly affairs, as well as a strategist. "
"Wen Mo 'er, there's a saying in the army that it's easy to get a thousand troops, but hard to get a good general. Do you understand what I mean?"
Wen Mo 'er vaguely realized something. She wanted to say something but stopped, "Sect Leader wants to recruit him?"
Gong Lince didn't answer her directly. He sat up straight and smiled. "I heard that there are many outstanding disciples who admire you. Why don't you want to marry him? Don't tell me that there aren't any disciples in my Purple Golden Cave who are worthy of you?"
Wen Mo 'er clenched her fists in front of her abdomen. "There are some, but they overestimate me. I have neither talent nor virtue. What they like is nothing more than my stinky looks. I'm not worthy of them, so I don't dare to mislead them with my looks."
Gong Lince said, "I heard that you've suffered a lot because of this. You have to understand that as a disciple of Purple Golden Cave, in order to protect the secrets of the sect, you can't easily marry out of the sect."
Wen Mo 'er said, "I only want to focus on cultivation. I've never thought about marrying, and I don't want to marry."
