Under this strange force, although Wei Zong's sword energy was powerful, it eventually dissipated invisible due to constant pulling.
Finally, Wei Zong's long sword stopped, less than an inch away from the old man's eyebrows, but the sword energy on it had completely disappeared.
"Senior, what a joke."
Wei Zong slowly took back the sword and returned it to its sheath.
"What a good boy!" The old man looked Wei Zong up and down, his eyes shining with indescribable admiration.
"You are so powerful, why are you here guarding the mine?"
This was the point that puzzled him the most.
Wei Zong gave a bitter laugh, and then said: "Actually...it's just because I hated Senior Wu Mohan, he sent me to this mine as a punishment, and said that he would let me go as long as I can raise 10,000 contribution points."
Wei Zong did not hide anything and spoke honestly.
"Ten thousand contribution points?" The old man's eyes widened: "I want you to stay in the mine until you die!"
He knew the income of this mine. Basically, a year of mining would not amount to more than a single contribution point.
These ten thousand contribution points are too ridiculous...
The old man looked at Wei Zong with a strange look: "What's wrong with you to punish you so severely?"
"This..." Wei Zong scratched his head and said with some embarrassment: "I just had something... happen with Senior Wu Mohan's daughter... just... that kind of... not very good thing..." Wei Zong
The words are intentionally vague to make people think more.
"oh--"
The old man looked like he suddenly understood. He felt that he understood.
Let’s just say, why did Lord Wu Mohan suddenly punish such a powerful junior so severely? It turned out that this boy was in love with his precious daughter. In order to break them up, Wu Mohan simply transferred this boy away and watched him for the rest of his life.
Mine.
I have to say, this guy Wu Mohan is a bit poisonous.
Thinking of this, the old man patted Wei Zong on the shoulder and encouraged: "Little brother, don't be afraid, you have made such a great contribution today, ten thousand contribution points are enough..." After thinking about it, the old man said again: "
Not only can we get it all together, I’m afraid there is still some leftover.”
"Let's go back with me right now. Even Lord Wu Mohan can't do anything to you."
The old man was very kind to Wei Zong.
"In that case, thank you very much, senior!"
Wei Zong bowed deeply and showed great humility.
The old man looked at Wei Zong and felt very satisfied. This boy is really good, not only powerful but also humble. He is not at all arrogant like other geniuses and monsters.
Gradually, the old man actually had the idea of recruiting Wei Zong.
After the two boarded the battleship, the fleet from the Shady Tower began to return.
On the battleship, the old man looked at Wei Zong and seemed to hesitate to speak.
Wei Zong reminded us thoughtfully:
"Senior, if you have anything to say, just say it directly. Junior is listening."
"Okay, I'll tell you the truth." The old man took a deep look at Wei Zong, and then said: "Wei Zong, I noticed before that you don't seem to be from the Shady Tower. Moreover, when you took action
, using the sword cultivator's method, I don't remember that our shady tower has a monster sword cultivator like you..."
There was nothing to hide about his origins, so Wei Zong admitted it openly.
"This junior is indeed not from the Shady Tower. I come from the Qiantian Sword Sect in the sword world."
"You are indeed a genius in the sword world!" The old man nodded and said, "That's right. Only a place like the sword world can produce a monster swordsman like you."
"By the way..." Suddenly remembering something, the old man asked curiously: "I heard that your sword world has a genius list that records all kinds of geniuses. I wonder where you rank, little friend?"
Hearing this, Wei Zong showed a faint smile.
Seeing Wei Zong smiling and saying nothing, the old man thought he was embarrassed to say that he failed to make the list, so when the old man said some words of encouragement, Wei Zong raised a finger.
"First!"
"..." The old man was silent, and the words of encouragement he planned to say were immediately swallowed by him.
Number one is number one, just say it directly. Why are you smiling so strangely? I thought you weren't on the list.
but……
Number one on the list of geniuses, he seems really awesome!
No, it’s not a bit awesome, it’s quite awesome!
There are so many geniuses in the sword world, and some of them are from overlord-level forces. It is truly remarkable that Wei Zong can suppress them all.
"as far as I know……"
Through the window, Wei Zong looked at the universe outside the shuttle, his eyes looking far away.
"My opponents in the sword world have all come to this battlefield outside the territory. If we meet again, they may be enemies of life and death!"
"yes!"
Hearing this, the old man also sighed and stood side by side with Wei Zong, looking at the starry sky outside.
"In this foreign battlefield, there are too few friends and too many enemies!"
After the two of them sighed, suddenly, the old man turned to Wei Zong and said, "Little friend, I wonder if you are interested in joining us."
After thinking about it, he still extended an olive branch to Wei Zong.
"you?"
Wei Zong was obviously stunned for a moment, and then asked with some confusion: "Senior, what does this 'you' refer to?"
"Naturally, we are the truly powerful force of the Shady Tower!" the old man said confidently: "We belong to the Shady Army under Master Wu Honghu, and are responsible for all external battles of the Shady Tower. At the same time, Master Wu Honghu is also the stronghold of the Shady Tower in the battlefield outside the territory.
Really in control. Even Master Wu Mohan will be afraid of him when he sees him."
Wei Zong listened for a moment and had a rough understanding of the forces behind the old man.
It was said before that Wu Mohan was the No. 3 person here. Since there is a No. 3, there is a No. 1 and No. 2. Now it seems that Wu Honghu is the No. 1 person. I just don’t know who the No. 2 person is.
And who is that Black Swallowtail?
While Wei Zong was deep in thought, the old man continued: "Little friend, you have already hated Lord Wu Mohan. Even if you successfully return with great merit this time, you may not know that he will deliberately find someone for you next time."
and then arranged for you to go to other places. This time you were lucky. You happened to meet the Zhanyue family and made great achievements. But next time, you won’t be so lucky. Do you really have to be in the country because of some unfounded charges?
A small place to stay for the rest of your life?”
Wei Zong's face was heavy, and he had to say that what the old man said really spoke to the bottom of his heart.
Wu Mohan's targeting is indeed a big problem.
Seeing Wei Zong's expression, the old man secretly thought something was wrong, so he struck a chord while the iron was hot: "But joining us will be different. From now on, you will be Lord Wu Honghu's subordinate. Even Lord Wu Mohan cannot target you so blatantly.
You arrange some unfounded charges. Unless, he is willing to offend Mr. Wu Honghu because of you!"
