The inner palace and the meeting hall are all packed together, and all the important figures of the Jianfu are here. Lingdiankanshufu advocates Xingkong, the foreign affairs elder Xiao Jihai, the internal affairs elder Wang Chongshan, the punishment elder Wu Gumei, and the sword guard elder Chen Zhiqing
.
There are two more true disciples wearing purple sword uniforms, namely Long Xiangtian, Zhang Xingkong's direct disciple, and Leng Zhu'er, Wu Gumei's direct disciple.
His Highness also stood with more than a dozen guard disciples in black robes and sword uniforms.
These people are the essence of the entire Jianfu and represent the core combat strength.
"Reporting to the master of the palace, the guards did not find anyone."
At this time, guard disciple Guan Heng stepped forward and lowered his head to report. He and ten guard disciples were divided into three small teams to capture the two skinny and fat people Liang Qiufeng mentioned. Unexpectedly, they searched a large circle in the surrounding mountains and found only a few
There are traces of activity, and the target has long since escaped and disappeared.
Guan Heng felt weak because of his inability to do things well.
"knew."
Zhang Xingkong said calmly, paused, and ordered the disciples to go outside first, and then asked Chen Zhichang, the elder of the Sword Guard: "Zhichang, what do you think?"
Chen Zhichang had a tall figure and a handsome face. He was about forty years old, and his mature masculine temperament was fully displayed: "Elder brother, there is no doubt that this matter was done by the Tiandu Sect. The fat man's name is Liu Yishou, and he belongs to Liu Muba.
My nephew has learned the true biography of Liu Mute, and he is good at raising and driving all kinds of poisonous birds and insects, which is quite unique."
Zhang Xingkong showed a wry smile: "This is not the point. The point is how to deal with it?"
Wu Gumei, dressed as a Taoist nun, said coldly: "Kill back!"
Zhang Xingkong knew the character of this junior sister and immediately turned his attention to the internal affairs elder Wang Chongshan.
Wang Chongshan coughed dryly: "In my opinion, we should wait and see what happens."
Wu Gumei snorted coldly: "People are coming to kill you, and you are still waiting to see what happens. Do you want to wait until your neck is cut off before you want to fight back?"
Wang Chongshan said: "Junior Sister, it is said that the Tiandu Sect is supported by the Eternal Divine Religion."
When he mentioned the four words "Eternal Divine Religion", his tone actually trembled slightly.
The atmosphere in the entire hall seemed to freeze all of a sudden, making it difficult to breathe.
Wu Gumei bit her lip: "So what? Tiandu Sect is backed by the Eternal God Sect, so we just sit back and wait for death?"
Xiao Jihai spoke: "Junior sister, Chongshan doesn't mean this."
Zhang Xingkong sighed: "Once an all-out war breaks out, there will be no retreat."
Wu Gumei suddenly stood up: "Tiandu Clan is aggressive, this battle will break out sooner or later."
Zhang Xingkong said: "I understand, but what Jianfu lacks most now is time. If we fight now, what should we fight with?"
Wu Gumei stagnated.
Zhang Xingkong added: "After a hundred years of catastrophe, I have been recovering and recuperating, but now I can finally take a breath. How can I withstand the war again?"
Wu Gumei said harshly: "But you can't let others poop and piss on your head, they will only push to the limit."
Zhang Xingkong said in a deep voice: "As I said before, we need time to buffer. With time, the new generation of disciples can grow up. They are the future and hope of Jianfu."
Chen Zhiwang shook his head: "Senior Brother, you also know the qualification level of the new generation of disciples. Nowadays, all the good talents have gone to Tiandu Sect to become their disciples."
Hearing what he said became discouraged, Zhang Xingkong cheered up: "You can't say that. In my opinion, there are many geniuses among the new generation of disciples. For example, Luo Gang, Gu Chengyang, Zhang Jiangshan and the others, who are less than twenty, are about to break through the eighth level of strength."
Yeah. Well, also, didn’t Jihai discover a new talent, called ‘Liang Qiufeng’, who has great potential. By the way, he was the first to discover the clues this time.”
"Liang Qiufeng?"
Wu Gumei sneered: "An eighteen-year-old genius with some strength?"
Xiao Jihai said slowly: "Junior sister, he is nineteen years old this year and has a third level of strength."
"So what? The speed of promotion does not seem to be slow, but don't forget that we are only in the initial stage of strength. This speed is not convincing at all."
Hearing this, Xiao Jihai was silent: Indeed, Liang Qiufeng's current performance is unconvincing, and his road is still far away. Looking at the bright future, whether he can reach it or not is another matter.
Zhang Xingkong waved his hand: "Okay, let's not argue about this anymore, let's get down to business."
Wang Chongshan said: "The main purpose of Tiandumen using such despicable means to destroy Lingdao should be to make us reduce production or even lose production, which will fundamentally shake the foundation of Jianfu. We must take measures to deal with it as soon as possible."
Lingmi is the economic foundation of the sect. If the foundation is shaken, it will be in danger.
Everyone understands this truth.
Zhang Xingkong asked: "Chongshan, how long can the inventory of spiritual rice be able to cope with it?"
"Two years at most."
"Then let's cut costs and mobilize the disciples to move around more and do more tasks. There is always a way. The most important thing right now is the Huangzhou Sect Competition in the spring next year. There is no room for failure and we must show our performance."
Having said this, Zhang Xingkong's tone was decisive.
The Wild Continent Sect Competition is held every three years in "Taicheng", the largest city in the Wild Continent. The participating units are all the sects and sects in the Wild Continent.
The competition rules are divided into three units: "Youth and Youth", specifically, there is a category for those under 20 years old, a category from 20 to 31 years old, and a category from 30 to 51 years old.
Each sect in each bracket can send three players to participate in the competition, with zero points for a loss, one point for a draw, and three points for a win. The final rankings are based on the total score.
In this competition, Zhongnan Jianfu has always been the well-deserved number one in the past, taking the lead by a wide margin. However, as the strength has declined, the ranking has gone from bad to worse. In the last competition, it fell to the lowest fourth place in history, which is a shame.
And the first one has already fallen in Tiandu Gate.
The ranking of the sect competition is not only related to strength and reputation, but also determines the number of disciples who can enter the Demon-Breaking Secret Realm, as well as the power qualifications to run Gushan City, which is of very important strategic significance.
Wu Gumei raised her eyebrows: "Then the disciple representatives should be determined through the year-end exam as in previous years?"
"good."
The year-end exam is a very grand arrangement of Zhongnan Sword Mansion every year. All disciples must take part in the exam to test their achievements over the past year.
"Then it's settled, everyone, hurry up and urge and mobilize the disciples to practice hard and strive for the top. In addition, an announcement was made, saying that if they perform well in this year's year-end exam, they will be listed as the key assessment targets for the true disciples. Send to the sea, to the mountains.
, I know that time waits for no one, it’s time for you to recruit true disciples.”
Zhang Xingkong's words were serious and thoughtful.
"yes."
The three of them also knew the urgency of time and agreed immediately.
"Okay, the discussion has come to an end. Let the disciples come in."
Soon, all the disciples returned to the hall and stood in their respective positions, waiting for instructions.
At this time, someone reported that Yang Tianming had arrived with Liang Qiufeng.
"Haha, let them come in. Well, I have been famous for this Liang Qiufeng for a long time. I have long wanted to meet him."
These words were obviously meant to be humorous. As he spoke, he glanced at Xiao Jihai with a smile on his face.
