"You flatter me. Before I do anything, I have to get to know the truth. Junior Brother Hei, don't be too reluctant, if you are able to see through the Thousand Goblins Sect's scheme, it will be a great merit, the Sect Master will definitely not treat them unfairly. "
"Then who should be chosen to complete this task?" In the end, Protector Orange was still the calmest.
Protector Yellow also had a gloomy expression, as though he was thinking about a candidate. At this time, the protection law said, "I already have a candidate that I like, and that person is Wu Di. Since everyone has been suspecting this fellow, why don't we have him participate in the mission as well? It's not black and white, let's see how the results are. "
At this time, the Protector Red finally reacted, and said angrily, "You good Bai Xuanming, you want to use this brat to perform meritorious services for yourself, your plan is too broad."
"Enough!" All of you, shut up. However, this is no small matter. It is not something that you can decide with just a few words. "How about this, all of you go back first. I will think about it a bit more and make a decision later."
"Yes sir!" A few people stood up and said their goodbyes.
In the end, only the Protector Orange remained. He took the wine gourd from his waist and fiercely drank a mouthful of wine before lazily saying, "It is said that I am the one who is the most lazy to bother with small matters like sects, yet you all still want me to be the leader."
Senior brother Qiu, you can't put it that way. With your ability, it's not impossible for you to become a Sect Elder in the future.
"Go!" Hearing your words, it seems that the fault lies with me. " Protector Qiu took another sip of the wine impatiently.
"Then do you think that Xuanming's method is feasible?" Protector Orange did not dare to bring up this topic again, so he brought up the important matter.
"It's feasible. In fact, I think it's more appropriate to let that Wu Di participate in the mission. The more there's no problem with this brat, the more there's a problem. "
"You're saying …"
"Ever since he helped Meng Bingyao discover his first Devil Guard from the Spirit Medicine Garden, this matter has not been simple. To confirm whether he is a spy or one of our own, this just so happens to be the best test."
Hearing that, the Protector Orange immediately understood, in truth, it did not matter if Wu Di was an evil spirit or not, as long as he was not a spy, it was no longer important. His very existence was an uncertain threat, and it would be better to get rid of it. This Protector Qiu really knew how to look at the bigger picture.
Wu Di was still cultivating in his room, completely unaware that he had been set up, as he walked step by step towards the abyss of death.
At night, there was a knock on the door. Since Wu Di was also somewhat tired from cultivating, he might as well stop cultivating and get out of bed to stretch his muscles.
When he opened the door, he saw Zhao Tiehniu standing outside with food in hand. He suddenly saw the door open, and was a little surprised, as it had been almost three days since he last saw Wu Di.
"Wu Di, you're still alive! If it wasn't for the fact that Mu Lee and I would have thought that the rice bowl at the entrance had already emptied up, we would have almost thought that you were already dead."
Wu Di smiled and said, "Fasting a valley requires one to at least reach Heavenly Strong Stage. Even so, those Protectors still want to eat. "
"Oh right, Wu Di, you still don't know, but there has been a huge investigation on the traitor within the sect."
Wu Di was startled, "traitor?"
"I heard that it's a disciple who colluded with fiendish demons and mixed into the sect. However, this is only what I have heard, and did not see the sect take any measures. "
Zhao Tiehniu had said it unintentionally, but Wu Di had listened attentively. Could it be that his identity as the author of the letter was exposed, or the matter regarding his disappearance was leaked out?
He had killed an inner disciple, and if this matter were to spread, it would not benefit him at all. Wu Di really did not think that he would be forced into a dead end. However, he didn't immediately panic. He hid these things deep in his heart.
"Thank you for bringing me food these few days, allowing me to cultivate in peace." Wu Di changed the topic and said gratefully.
Zhao Tiehniu stretched out his hand and patted Wu Di's shoulder, but discovered that it was hard as iron, and couldn't help but say enviously, "Wu Di, has your ability increased again?"
Hearing this, Wu Di only smiled slightly, and said, "Not really, but after just reaching Body Tempering Stage, I need to properly consolidate my powers, so as to avoid situations where my realm is unstable, and my cultivation level falls."
Wu Di lied a little. When he was training the North Nether Soul Refinement Song, he initially thought that there was no possibility of it levelling up, but during this period of time, he had grown. In a short period of time, he had almost reached the peak of the Early Period of the Body Tempering Stage.
He believed that as long as he continued to practice, reaching the peak of his cultivation would be just around the corner. It is not difficult to connect from one stratum to the top, but it is difficult to cross over into a higher level.
Back then, Wu Di was stuck at the peak of the middle stage of Qi Cultivating Stage, unable to break through no matter what.
Zhao Tiehniu said, "I also want to learn from you, even if I cannot reach your realm, I have to work hard, and not waste my time in training."
As the two of them were chatting, an inner disciple walked over. Wu Di immediately recognized that this was the Senior Brother Yan Angzhi, Yan, who was initially selected as the host.
He and Zhao Tiehniu bowed towards Yan Angzhi, but Yan Angzhi just nodded and said, "Wu Di, follow me."
Wu Di was confused, but he nodded his head and followed behind Yan Angzhi. Then, Yan Angzhi came to Ling Qun's door, knocked on it and quickly walked out.
"Ling Qun, follow me."
Ling Qun did not speak, but he still obediently followed Yan Angzhi out of the courtyard. At this time, Mu Lee who was strolling outside saw Wu Di and Ling Qun being brought away by Yan Angzhi, and asked him what was going on.
"I'm not too sure either. I just took two people with me. They were very mysterious."
Mu Lee shook his head and sighed, then said, "I am also extremely stupid, to think that I would think of asking you. Alright, I'll go and find out for myself. Recently, Wu Di's luck has been too bad, don't get tricked again. "
As the saying goes, good things are bad, but bad. Mu Lee's casual phrase was already not far from the truth. When Wu Di and Ling Qun arrived at the hall of the Protector Qiu, there was still one person standing there, and it was actually Yu Qing.
Wu Di thought, that's great, why are all of them gathered together? Was this the tempo of someone trying to force him to death?
Very quickly, Yan Angzhi left the room. The entire pavilion only had the eight Protectors, Wu Di and the other two outer court disciples. The one who opened his mouth was still the Protector Qiu. He coughed once, but nothing else came out.
"Senior apprentice-brother." Protector Orange reminded him.
"Mn, actually it's very simple. Recently, the demons have been causing quite a bit of trouble at the Seven Star Sect. In order to let the disciples of the Seven Star Sect cultivate in peace, I have to give all of you a difficult mission."
Wu Di's heart skipped a beat. A difficult mission meant that it was dangerous, could it be to send them to their deaths? But Ling Qun was someone who was important to him, and there was also that Yu Qing who was born with such a profound strength, so there was no way he would sacrifice a single bit of support from the Cultivation Aristocratic Family.
Countless thoughts flashed through Wu Di's mind, but he still did not get the so-called result. At this time, the Protector Qiu continued, "In order to find out the reason why these demons snuck into the Seven Star Sect, I need a few elite disciples to stand up for the sect at critical moments."
Speaking till this point, Wu Di already felt a little confident, but they were just a group of outer sect disciples with the weakest strength, what could they do?
"Protector Qiu, if there is anything this disciple can do, please do not hesitate to instruct me. Yu Qing was the first to express his opinion.
As for Wu Di and Ling Qun, they cupped their hands in a greeting and did not say a word.
"It looks like the three of you have already come to a realization. That's good, as a disciple of a sect, you must know how to sacrifice no matter what. Xuanming, you should explain the rest of the matters to them in detail. "
Xuanming stood up and walked in front of the three of them, and said indifferently, "The things that I want to say next are very important, you three should listen carefully …"
