Chapter 948: Preparation, Departure

Editor: Atlas Studios

The assembly hall was built by the Divine Body Sect and the Divine Array Sect. The rewards were also borne by the two sects.

At the same time, because there were too many cities affected by the beast tide and the range was gradually expanding, the two sects were extremely generous in terms of mission rewards.

This caused countless sectless cultivators and even the disciples of other factions to be willing to accept missions within their capabilities.

When Ye Qiubai and the others arrived, at the side, a pretty girl walked over and asked directly, “Do you want to consider joining our team?”

Ye Qiubai looked over and raised his eyebrows. He asked in confusion, “Why did you choose us?”

They did not know each other. This situation was quite unbelievable.

“I’ll give you a reason.”

Immediately after, a tall man walked forward with a smile and patted the woman’s shoulder.

Seeing this, the woman retreated behind the man.

Then, the man explained, “When you guys entered the God Descending Star Region previously, we heard it from the side. We heard that you guys came from the Star Cloud Sect in the Hao Tian Divine Region.”

“At the same time, seeing that your strength is at the Divine Soldier Realm, I feel that it’s quite suitable for our team.”

There were a total of three people on the man’s side.

After the introduction, the man’s name was Zhong Changgong. The other silent man was Qi Wen, and the woman was Zhong Yan.

Qi Wen and Zhong Yan were both in Peak Stage Divine Weapon Realm.

Zhong Changgong was at Beginner Stage Divine General Realm.

Zhong Changgong came from the Divine Body Sect while Qi Wen and Zhong Yan were from the Divine Array Sect.

Fang Qiong asked curiously, “There are many people here who are stronger than us. Aren’t you going to look for them?”

However, Zhong Changgong smiled brightly and said, “Those who are stronger than us won’t find us as teammates. At the same time, even though there are many people in the Divine Soldier Realm, most of them already have teams. We don’t want to find individual cultivators either. After all, since you’re from the Hao Tian Divine Realm, your foundation is naturally stronger than those individual cultivators, right?”

“Therefore, join us. We will distribute the rewards according to your contribution to the mission.”

Zi Shan was shocked upon hearing this!

Mu Fusheng and Ye Qiubai looked at each other.

Only then did they vaguely guess the motive of these three people.

“Does that mean you’ll be the one to distribute the rewards?”

Zhong Changgong nodded naturally. “Of course. I’m the captain of the team.”

Ye Qiubai smiled and said, “I understand.”

He had found them for no reason.

He even gave such an inexplicable reason.

Who would believe that the other party had no ulterior motives?

As for why he was looking for them?

It was obvious that they were not from the God Descending Star Region. When the time came, even if the factions behind them were to cause trouble, it would be inconvenient to look for them. They could only resolve it here.

Moreover, their average realm was higher than Ye Qiubai and the others.

Therefore, after completing the mission, wouldn’t the rewards be distributed by them?

Of course, this was only a possibility.

However, from the looks of it, this possibility was indeed quite high.

Zhong Changgong smiled and said, “Then do you want to join us?”

Ye Qiubai said, “We have to discuss it.”

“Of course.” Zhong Changgong nodded in understanding.

Then, he retreated to the side.

Ye Qiubai and the others communicated via voice transmission.

“It’s obvious. Looks like they’re looking for a free fighter,” Mu Fusheng said.

“Then what should we do?” Blackie frowned. “Should we reject him directly?”

Ye Qiubai shook his head and said, “There’s no need to refuse. We can use them instead. Aren’t they from the Divine Array Sect’s Divine Body Sect? They can naturally come into contact with information that we can’t.”

“If there are no problems, cooperate well. If there are problems, there will be a way to resolve them.”

Fang Qiong nodded. “Even though their realms are higher than ours, they shouldn’t be difficult to deal with.”

Ye Qiubai looked at Mu Fusheng. “Junior Brother Mu, you have more ideas in this aspect. I’ll leave it to you.”

Mu Fusheng looked up at the sky.

Ah…

Master, it’s really not what I want to do.

This was Big Senior Brother’s idea!

After the discussion, Ye Qiubai came to Zhong Changgong and smiled. “We agreed.”

A dark smile flashed across Zhong Changgong’s eyes before he nodded and extended his hand. “Then, I’ll take care of you.”

Ye Qiubai reached out and shook his hand. “Nice to meet you.”

“Alright, we’ve already chosen a mission, but I’ll still let you take a look and see if you think you can accept it.”

Then, Zhong Changgong stretched out his hand. A scroll appeared in his palm and he handed it to Ye Qiubai.

Ye Qiubai took it and took a look at the mission requirements in the south of the assembly hall.

With a small city, there were not many magical beasts. Basically, they were mainly at the Heaven Immortal Realm and the Divine Soldier Realm.

There were only a few Divine General magical beasts in the lead.

It belonged to the Divine Body Sect’s sphere of influence.

What he needed to do was to help the city resist the beast tide.

Obtaining the magic nucleus of the three Divine General-level magical beasts was considered a success.

Overall, the difficulty of the mission was not very high.

Zhong Changgong smiled and said, “How is it? Can you take it?”

Ye Qiubai nodded. “It’s not a big problem.”

“Then it seems that everyone’s strength is not weak.” Zhong Chang Gong’s eyes flickered slightly as he smiled and said, “We still need to use some strategies to deal with the three God General-level magical beasts.”

Hearing this, Ye Qiubai also knew that Zhong Changgong was testing them, so he smiled faintly and said, “You’re the captain. It’s up to you.”

“Alright, then get ready. Let’s gather at the city gate tomorrow and set off.”

Ye Qiubai nodded.

…

After leaving the assembly hall, Ye Qiubai, Fang Qiong, and Blackie stayed in an inn.

Mu Fusheng went out to gather information.

It couldn’t be helped!

Since he knew that the other party was up to no good, then, he had to try his best to gather some information about the other party. Only then could he better decide on a plan.

Sigh, he was really worried about his Senior brothers…

Mu Fusheng expressed his exhaustion.

It also meant that he finally understood why his master had such a headache.

Zhong Changgong was not a high-level figure.

Therefore, when collecting information, he could just use talismans to send them away.

In the process of asking around, Mu Fusheng’s black robe covered his face the entire time and his aura was concealed. Even the traces of his aura on the talisman had been erased.

At the same time, those talismans were more common than the horrifying talismans on the book of talismans.

At their level, hard currency was talismans, medicinal pills, array scrolls, and weapons.

Money?

That was no longer necessary.

Mu Fusheng only returned with the information when the sun set.

Ye Qiubai and the others also stopped cultivating and asked, “How is it?”

Mu Fusheng rolled his eyes.

You guys sure are happy.

He then said, “Zhong Yan and Qi Wen are just ordinary inner sect disciples of the Divine Array Sect.”

“Oh? In that case, is Duke Zhong Chang not simple?” Blackie asked.

“That’s right.” Mu Fusheng nodded. “Even though Zhong Changgong is an inner sect disciple, his father is an inner sect elder of the Divine Body Sect. Furthermore, he has the right to speak in the assembly hall.”

Zi Shan was shocked upon hearing this!

Ye Qiubai smiled. “Looks like even if this trip is successful, if Zhong Changgong really has ill intentions, the distribution of rewards might not be peaceful.”
