C66 Difficult Task
"You flatter me. Before I do things, I need to know the truth. Junior Brother Hei, don't be reluctant. If you can see through the conspiracy of the Ten Thousand Demon Gate, it will be a great contribution. The Sect Master will definitely not mistreat those meritorious officials."
"Then who should we choose to complete this mission?" Protector Orange was calm and steady.
Protector Yellow looked serious as well, as if he was considering who to choose. At this time, the protector said, "I already have a candidate that I like, and that is Wu Di. Since everyone has been suspecting this kid, why don't we let him participate in this mission as well? Let's see what the result will be."
At this moment, Protector Red finally reacted and said angrily," Good Bai Xuanming, you want to use this kid to make a contribution to yourself. Your plan is very clear."
"Alright! All of you shut up. This matter is indeed feasible. However, this matter 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 again and make a decision later."
Yes! " The few of them stood up and took their leave.
In the end, Protector Orange was the only one left. Protector Qiu took off the wine gourd from his waist and drank a mouthful of wine. Then he said lazily, "People say that I don't care about trivial matters like the sect, but you still want me to be the one in charge."
"Senior Qiu, that's not what you're saying. With your ability, it's not impossible for you to become an elder of the sect in the future. However, you insisted on coming here. How could we dare to neglect you?"
"Go! Hearing your words, it seems like the fault lies with me in the end." Protector Qiu took another sip of wine impatiently.
"Do you think Xuanming's idea will work?" Protector Qiu asked. Protector Orange did not dare to bring up the topic again, so he brought up the matter.
"It is possible. In fact, I think it is more suitable for Wu Di to take part in the operation. The more harmless this kid is, the more problematic he is."
"You mean..."
"Ever since he helped Meng Bingyao discover the first Devil Guard in Spirit Medicine Garden, this matter is not simple. To confirm whether he is a spy or one of us, this is the best test."
Protector Orange immediately understood when he heard this. In fact, whether Wu Di was a spy or not, it was no longer important. His existence itself was an uncertain threat, so he might as well get rid of it. This Protector Qiu really knew how to take care of the big picture.
Wu Di was still cultivating in his room. He had no idea that he had been schemed against and was walking step by step towards the abyss of death.
At night, there was a knock on the door. Wu Di was tired from cultivating, so he decided to stop and get out of bed to exercise.
When he opened the door, he saw Zhao Tiehniu standing outside with food in his hand. He was surprised to see the door suddenly open. It had been almost three days since he saw Wu Di.
"Wu Di, you're still alive. Mu Lee and I would have thought you had fasted if we hadn't seen the rice bowls at the door."
Wu Di smiled and said, "No matter what, I have to wait until I reach the Heavenly Strong Stage realm to abstain from eating. Even so, we still have to wait until we reach the Heavenly Strong Stage realm. Look, those protectors still want to eat. "
"By the way, Wu Di, you don't know yet. Recently, the sect has been searching for traitors."
Wu Di was stunned, "Spies?"
"I heard that they are disciples who are colluding with the demonic devils and mingling in the sect. But this is only what I heard, and I didn't see the sect take any measures."
Zhao Tiehniu didn't mean it, but Wu Di did. Could it be that the identity of the letter was exposed, or that the missing person had been leaked?
He had killed an inner sect disciple. Once the news got out, it would not do him any good. Wu Di had never thought that he would be forced into a dead end. However, he didn't panic immediately. He just kept these things hidden in his heart.
"Thank you and Mu Lee for bringing me food these days. I can cultivate in peace." Wu Di changed the topic and said gratefully.
Zhao Tiehniu hit Wu Di's shoulder and found that it was as hard as iron. He couldn't help but say with envy, "Wu Di, Have you improved your abilities again?
Upon hearing these words, Wu Di only smiled and said, "No, but I have just reached the Body Tempering Stage realm. I have to consolidate my strength to avoid any situation where my cultivation base is unstable and my cultivation base is falling."
Wu Di lied. When he was cultivating the North Nether Soul Refinement Song, he initially thought that it was impossible for him to advance, but during this period of time, he had improved a little. In just a short period of time, he was almost at the peak of the Early Period of the Body Tempering Stage realm.
He believed that as long as he continued practicing, he would reach the peak soon. It wasn't difficult to reach the peak from the same level. The difficulty lay in how to advance to a higher level.
Back then, Wu Di had been stuck at the peak of the Mid Qi Refinement realm. He couldn't break through no matter how hard he tried. If it weren't for the various opportunities that appeared later on, he wouldn't have been able to obtain the results in such a short period of time.
Zhao Tiehniu said, "I want to learn from you as well. Even if I can't reach your realm, I have to work harder. I can't neglect my cultivation."2
While the two of them were talking, an inner sect disciple walked over. Wu Di immediately recognized that this was the senior disciple Yan Angzhi Yan who was in charge of the selection.
He and Zhao Tiehniu bowed to Yan Angzhi. Yan Angzhi just nodded and said, "Wu Di, come with me."
Wu Di didn't know what was going on. Yan Angzhi came to Ling Qun's door and knocked on it. Soon, Ling Qun walked out.
"Ling Qun, come with me."
Ling Qun didn't say anything, but he followed Yan Angzhi and left the yard. At this time, Mu Lee, who had just returned from his stroll, saw Wu Di and Ling Qun being taken away by Yan Angzhi. He asked Zhao Tiehniu what was going on.
"I don't know either. They took two people away all of a sudden. They are so mysterious."
Mu Lee shook his head and sighed. "I am also very stupid. I actually thought of asking you. " Alright, I'll go and find out myself. Wu Di has been so unlucky recently. Don't let anyone try to trick him again. "
As the saying goes, good things don't work well. Mu Lee's casual words were not far from the truth. When Wu Di and Ling Qun arrived at Protector Qiu's pavilion, there was another person standing there. It was Yu Qing.
Wu Di thought, 'This is great. Why is everyone gathered together?' Was he trying to force him to death?
Very quickly, Yan Angzhi went out. There were only eight protectors and three outer circle disciples in the hall. The one who spoke was Protector Qiu. He coughed, but nothing else happened.
"Senior brother." Protector Orange reminded him.
"En, it's actually very simple. Recently, the demons have been causing quite a ruckus in the Seven Star Sect. In order to let the disciples of the Seven Star Sect cultivate in peace, I have to give you all a difficult task."
Wu Di's heart skipped a beat. A difficult task. This meant that it was dangerous. Could it be that they were going to die? There was no need for him to say anything. Anyway, it was just a lowly life. It was better to say that they weren't valued. However, Ling Qun wanted his identity and Yu Qing. He was born in the Cultivation Aristocratic Family, so the Seven Star Sect wouldn't casually sacrifice the support of the Cultivation Aristocratic Family.
Countless thoughts flashed through Wu Di's mind, but he still didn't get the so-called result. At this time, Protector Qiu continued, "In order to find out the reason why these demons infiltrated the Seven Star Sect, I need a few elite disciples to stand up for the sect at the critical moment."
At this point, Wu Di had some confidence now. However, they were just a group of weak outer circle disciples. What could they do?
"Protector Qiu, if there's anything that I can do, please tell me. I will do anything for the sect." Yu Qing was the first to express his stance. He had done enough on the surface, causing all the protectors to nod their heads in approval.
As for Wu Di and Ling Qun, they only cupped their hands and did not say anything.
"It seems like the three of you have come to a realization. That's good. As a disciple of the sect, you must know how to sacrifice no matter the time. This is the same for everyone. Xuanming, tell them what happened next in detail."
Xuanming stood up and walked in front of the three of them. He said indifferently, "What I am going to say next is very important. Listen carefully..."
