The concise explanation made it difficult for Wu Zhaoxing to be dissatisfied.
Yun Ji could not help but look at Niu Youdao a few more times. This broad-mindedness made her secretly sigh. She then looked back at her son. They were both men, but how could the difference be so big?
With these words alone, she understood how big the gap between her son and Niu Youdao was. No wonder one rose in the Southern Region, while the other lived under someone else's roof. She had no choice but to accept it.
Niu Youdao, who had not gone far, stopped and turned around. As if remembering something, he returned to Situ Yao and the others and asked, "Fifty people came from your Ten Thousand Heavenly Caves, how come there are only twenty people?"
Situ Yao said, "People are looking for spirit seeds everywhere, so it's difficult to gather them in a short time. There are still thirty people who haven't come. We were just discussing this matter. Cai Jinqi and the other Spirit Sword Mountain disciples are all dead, and if we go back unscathed, anyone would suspect that we conspired with you. Chu Fengping would not let us go. If we don't go back, we're worried that those thirty people would encounter an accident. "
"That's simple. Don't worry, we'll deal with it later …" Niu Youdao asked about the details of the process.
After figuring out what he wanted to know, Niu Youdao nodded and was about to turn around to leave when Situ Yao called out to him and asked a little worriedly, "How did you get mixed up with them?"
"They are my sworn brothers," Niu Youdao pointed at Fu Hua and the others on the cliff, gave a brief reply, and then turned around to leave.
Sworn brothers? Them? How many? Did they become sworn brothers here or outside the Heavenly Capital Secret Territory? Situ Yao was stunned speechless. He had seen the scene of Niu Youdao, Hui Qingping, and Quan Taifeng becoming sworn brothers.
Niu Youdao went up the cliff and met with Fu Hua and the others.
Duan Wuchang glanced at the people in the valley. "Are we just going to let them go?"
Niu Youdao said, "They are my people, but they were forced to abandon me. It's good to have a chance to pull them back."
Lang Jingkong said, "I hate traitors the most in my life!"
Fu Hua also said with a smile, "Brother, your decision to kill and not kill seems to conflict with your own strategy, doesn't it? How are we supposed to believe you if you keep repeating things over and over again? "
Niu Youdao: "I've always believed that if we can talk nicely, there's no need to fight and kill. Killing people won't solve the problem. There was no conflict with the strategy they had decided on. Who were they? The original owner of the State of Zhao's Jin Province, he still has a group of cultivators and hundreds of thousands of troops fighting alongside the Southern Province against the State of Zhao. Not only do we have to fight here, but we also have to fight for the control of the battlefield with the three major Yan sects. We have to take a long-term view. If we can hold them back, we'll be able to hold back their forces outside. "
Fu Hua smiled and said, "What does your struggle for power have to do with us? That's your problem. All we know is that the fewer people who pose a threat, the more likely we are to leave safely. "
Niu Youdao immediately retorted, "This isn't a simple fight and kill in the cultivation world. It's different from how you guys usually play things. It's not as simple as you think. If we can hold back the forces of the State of Jin, we'll have a greater say on the battlefield. Only when the decision on the battlefield is in my hands and I can threaten the interests of all parties, will they give me face. Only when I have a firm hold on the right to speak, will I be able to suppress the killing of the various countries after we leave. Otherwise, if there's an internal chaos, I won't be able to take care of myself. How will I be able to help you suppress the seven countries? Now that you're happy, have you considered the consequences? "
This was something that the few of them had never thought about. After hearing this, they all fell silent.
After waiting for a while, the results of cleaning up the scene came out. Hong Gaitian spat in dissatisfaction, "Not even ten thousand Spirit Seeds. So many people, but only so little. What a waste."
Niu Youdao: "It's expected. They have to turn in the Spirit Seeds they find every day."
Hibiscus: "Brother, it seems that you have to continue to work hard to lure the enemy."
Niu Youdao understood what she meant. They had to gradually break through the joint center of the Yan forces in order to get those Spirit Seeds. "Big Sister, killing so many people of the Yan Sect proves my sincerity. It's better not to touch the people of the Yan Sect for the time being."
Hibiscus: "Some people have died, but it's not a small number. How do I know that you're not working together to put on a show for us?"
Slowly, Niu Youdao was silent for a while. In the end, he said, "My forces have reached the end of their development in the Yan Sect. I can no longer avoid facing the three major sects of the Yan Sect."
Hibiscus: "Are you trying to reason with us again? We don't have any confidence in your bullsh * t. "
"Big Sister, you win. Let me tell you the truth. I have to choose one of the three major sects of the Yan Sect to rely on. Purple Golden Cave and I have secretly prepared …"
There were some things that Niu Youdao didn't want to reveal right now. However, even if he had killed the people of the Yan Sect, they still wouldn't let him go. Thus, he had to reveal the fact that he wanted to join the Purple Golden Cave.
He explained that at that time, because of the situation, the Purple Golden Cave couldn't protect him and had to give him up. He also revealed the fact that he had contacted Yan Li again and reached an agreement. Hearing this, Hibiscus and the others looked at each other in dismay. They didn't expect that there were still these shameful things hidden in the dark.
They finally understood the reason why Niu Youdao didn't want to reveal the truth. Some things were indeed not good to be exposed. They couldn't let Spirit Sword Sect and Xiao Yao Palace know about it.
Since he had told them everything, naturally, he also told them the result. "By killing these people, I have already proved my sincerity. There's really no need to waste energy and strength on the Yan Sect. With the help of the Purple Golden Cave, as long as we have the strength to cooperate with them, we can easily get the spirit seed from the Yan Sect if we need it. Now, letting them search for more spirit seeds is actually helping us. When necessary, we can also let the Purple Golden Cave help us to consume the other forces to reduce the pressure on us … "
The matter had been revealed. The suspicion, suspicion, and crux of the matter had all been solved. Everyone was relieved, and the following things would be easy to handle.
…
In the evening, the setting sun was very beautiful. In the sky, the huge shadow of the ball that was full of potholes could be seen, as if it would fall at any time.
The people of the Yan Sect had been searching for the whole day. They gathered back to rest. Facing the setting sun, Chu Fengping was waiting.
While Li Wuhua was anxiously waiting, a disciple of the Ten Thousand Heavenly Cave quietly approached him and reported in a low voice, "The Sect Leader has sent someone to the direction of my search. He has sent a secret letter."
After reading the contents of a piece of cloth, Li Wuhua quickly looked around and then quietly destroyed the piece of cloth.
The sky was dark. Chu Fengping was still waiting, but Cai Jinqi and the others still hadn't returned.
In the valley, Shan Hai and Yan Li walked together to a bonfire. Chu Fengping, who was sitting beside the bonfire, raised his head and saw the two staring at him. He asked, "What is it?"
Shan Hai said, "I heard from the people of the other sects that your disciple, Cai Jinqi, took some people from their sects with him. Why haven't they returned yet?"
Chu Fengping said, "I also want to know why they haven't returned yet."
Yan Li said, "Situ Yao and the others haven't returned either. Yan Baoru hasn't returned either. Brother Chu, aren't you going to explain?"
What's going on with Yan Baoru? Chu Fengping muttered in his heart. He didn't want to explain, so he casually said a few words to fool them. Shan Hai and Yan Li couldn't do anything to him.
After sending the two away, Chu Fengping's heart was filled with worry. He was worried that something had happened, but he felt that it was impossible. Just by relying on Niu Youdao? Even if Wu Zhaoxing and the others were included, it was impossible for them to not return.
Perhaps it was a good thing that there was no news. He could only comfort himself in this way. He hoped that it was because Niu Youdao had run too far away, and they were too far away to return in time.
Until the next morning, Cai Jinqi and the others still hadn't returned. Chu Fengping had a premonition that something had happened. No matter how useless his disciple was, he should at least understand the worries of the other side. If he chased too far away and couldn't return in time, he would definitely send someone back to inform them. It was impossible for there to be no news at all.
When they set off again to search for the spiritual seed, Chu Fengping secretly sent someone back and ordered them to search for Cai Jinqi and the others …
Based on the current situation, it wasn't difficult for Niu Youdao to find the next target. Fortunately, he had allied with a group of people from overseas. The people that he had previously sent out had been keeping an eye on the various countries' forces, leaving marks along the way.
After shaking off Yan's forces for seven to eight days, Niu Youdao and the others, who were heading straight for the Korean forces, successfully found the nearest target.
The plan was still the same as before, with Niu Youdao appearing to lure the enemy.
It might be useless for other people to lure the enemy, as the others basically belonged to their own forces. Korea wouldn't rashly provoke other forces, but Niu Youdao was different. Basically, everyone knew that he had been expelled by the three Yan's major sects, and was weak and easy to bully.
To some forces, killing Niu Youdao would cause internal strife in the three Yan's major sects over the Nanzhou.
Watching Niu Youdao risking his life to lure the enemy, Situ Yao shook his head. He realized that this person was really unscrupulous in order to leave this place alive. It was indeed not easy for him to jump up and down and run all over the place.
Just like in the forest of the wilderness, Niu Youdao, who was carrying a backpack and sneaking by himself, crossed over the mountains, his heart was as firm as steel as he moved forward.
A strange movement could be heard, he suddenly stopped and turned his head around. He saw a flock of birds in the forest flying away in fright. He was on the treetop, moving up and down along with the branches as he coldly and vigilantly surveyed his surroundings.
After observing for a while and seeing nothing unusual, he suddenly jumped down from the treetop and quickly dodged through the dense forest. He quickly hid in a remote area and secretly observed his surroundings.
Maybe it was some wild beast in the forest that startled the birds, but he didn't dare to be careless. He patiently endured and quietly observed.
After a full hour, after not seeing any movement for so long, someone couldn't hold it in any longer. A graceful figure flashed out and jumped on the branches, searching for something.
The person who came was none other than Yan Baoru.
Niu Youdao who was secretly observing frowned. He was suspicious in his heart. Why would he meet this woman? Could it be a coincidence?
He didn't dare to act blindly without thinking. He held his breath and concentrated, suppressing his aura and quietly concealed himself.
