3154: Who is Suitable

Who is Suitable

Meanwhile, in the Blue Star Immortal Sect. 0

The Sect Master summoned all the peaks' peak masters to the Master Peak to discuss matters. When he noticed that everyone was seated together, he stroked his beard and scanned the Venerables before finally asking, "Are Venerable Si Que and Venerable Mu Xin not here?" 

"They're still recovering, Sect Master." A Venerable stood up and answered. 

The Sect Master nodded. "Since they didn't come, let me tell you about it," he said after a brief pause. "The restriction in the immortal sect's mystic realm was loosened, and it was discovered that it was done by the devilry cultivators. The motive is to wreak havoc in the mystic realm and kill the elite disciples of our Four Sects during this experience." 

"It's fortunate that we discovered it early," he said to the crowd. Except for a few of our sect's disciples who died, and twenty people who were seriously injured, everyone else returned safely. It is said that the other three sects lost 20 or 30 of the hundred disciples they sent out this time. In comparison, the disciples lost to our Blue Star Immortal Sect are already regarded as "light."

"Now our Four Sect's Sect Masters have resealed the mystic realm and activated the restrictions. However, this year's event to gain experience must come to an end. In addition, each sect has responsibilities. We must choose some disciples, led by a Venerable to besiege the devilry cultivators' territory in the South Ridge as a warning to the devilry cultivators. Our Blue Star Immortal Sect will send fifty people and five venerables." 

When a Venerable heard this, he asked, "Sect Master, when do you want to leave?"

"The agreed-upon time with the four sects is half a month later." The Sect Master answered, and then asked the crowd. "Which five venerables do you think are most suitable to lead the teams?"

The venerables fell silent and looked at each other, but no one spoke.

The Sect Master, noticing that no one was speaking, stroked his beard. "It's fine, everyone; I have to consult with the elders about the venerable you recommend, so you can voice your opinions." 

When two of the Venerables saw this, one of them bumped the other with his elbow, signalling him to speak. The other kept silent, paused for a moment, and then spoke. "Sect Master, in terms of strength, Venerable Si Que and Venerable Mu Xin are naturally the strongest among us. I think they are most suitable to lead the team, but the two of them were seriously injured, so…"

He then stopped and did not speak again. Si Que and Mu Xin were indeed the strongest among them. However, they had no idea, that Venerable Si Que and Venerable Mu Xin obtained two ninth-grade sacred beasts in the mystic realm. Their combat strengths were excellent. They should be the ones to lead the siege against the devilry cultivators' Southern Ridge.

"That's right. Their strength is slightly higher than yours, but as you mentioned, they are recovering from their injuries, and this time they are seriously injured. I'm afraid they are not qualified to lead this team."

The Sect Master said while walking with his hands clasped behind his back and considering the situation. "You can withdraw! I will consult with several elders before making the final decision."

"Yes." The crowd responded and left first, while two of the Venerables remained in place and did not leave. They pondered for a moment and appeared hesitant to speak, but were uncertain whether to do so.

"What do the two of you have in mind?" When the Sect Master noticed that the two were hesitant to speak, he asked.
