"Humph, no matter who it is, he will definitely show up in the end." Ximenyu said solemnly.
"That's right, that kind of scheming grandson. Once we catch him, we must cut him into pieces." Yu Tianliang said harshly. This kind of person is the most annoying.
"Brother Ximen, can you disobey his orders?"
"Yes, senior brother, why would he send you to a dangerous place? You have to go."
"What the two sisters don't know is that the Xuan Temple is the sacred place of cultivation in the Eastern God Realm. Opportunities and risks coexist. Therefore, every few years, powerful divine masters are assigned to eliminate demons and protect the way. This is what every Eastern God person should do.
If the obligation is really assigned to Junior Brother Ximen, it will be difficult for Junior Brother to refuse." Nangong Xi said helplessly.
"Senior sister is right. As the saying goes, when the soldiers come, the water will be blocked and the earth will cover it up. It's better not to worry about me. You must know that I have come back to life on the edge of death."
"Although the edge of death is dangerous, it is not man-made. But if Brother Ximen is assigned to go out to slay demons, he will easily fall into the trap set by others. That is the most difficult thing to guard against." Yang Ke was still worried.
"I also think that if I talk to my father and ask him to keep my senior brother in the Eastern Shrine, then no one can murder my senior brother."
"No, junior sister, we can't avoid the disaster, so let's let nature take its course. Besides, living an ignoble life is not my personality, Ximen Yu. I have made up my mind, please don't say any more."
"Well, you must be careful anyway."
"Uh-huh."
Three days later, he left the teacher's hall.
"Liu Chong, Ximen Yu, and Zhuang Yan, do you know why you three were summoned to the Master's Hall?" Master Zheng Feng, the master of the Master's Hall, asked.
"I don't know, I hope Hall Master Zheng can tell me." Master Zhuang Yan answered first.
"Where are you?" Hall Master Zheng Feng turned to ask Ximen Yu and Liu Chongdao.
Liu Chong shook his head. Although he had guessed something, there was no need to speak out about something that was not yet confirmed.
"If I guess correctly, Hall Master Zheng is going to send a few of us on an expedition." Ximen Yu said straightforwardly.
Three days have passed, and the previous speculation has finally been confirmed. It seems that the mastermind behind it can't help but take action.
"Haha, it's still Ximen Yu Shicheng." Hall Master Zheng Feng said with a smile.
"Hall Master Zheng, if you need our help if you need anything, please tell me quickly. Don't hide it." Ximen Yu had already seen through their purpose, so he said calmly.
"Well, I won't beat around the bush with you. Zhuang Yan was the previous annual champion of the Master Divine Master level. Although he was replaced by Liu Chong in the past three years, he is still one of the top masters of the Master Divine Master level. Needless to say, Liu Chong
, in the past three years, he has been the annual champion of the mid-level god level, and his strength is obvious to all. Now let’s talk about Ximen Yu. I believe everyone knows that since he returned from the edge of death, he has transformed magnificently, and his strength is close to that of Master Liu Chong.
It is said that the three of you are currently the most powerful divine masters among the middle-level great gods and below in the Xuan Temple, so the temple has specially appointed you three to go to the Demon Mountains, kill the demons, and protect the villagers under the Demon Mountains."
"Going to the Demonic Mountains? Are there just the three of us?" Ximenyu asked.
"Of course it's not just the three of you. The Eastern God's Palace, the Heavenly God's God's Palace, and other War God's Gods will all appoint divine generals to attack with you, so you need to meet at the foot of the Demon Mountain first, and when everyone is here, enter the mountain together.
Kill the enemy." Hall Master Zheng Feng said seriously.
"The monsters in the Demonic Mountains should be very powerful and not easy to kill."
"Well, what Ximen Yu said is true. There are many monsters in the Demonic Mountains, and their strength is unpredictable. Therefore, the dangers are unpredictable, and death and injury are inevitable. You must be mentally prepared." Hall Master Zheng Feng said solemnly.
"Hall Master Zheng, since the Demonic Mountains are so dangerous, why don't you send high-grade god-level warriors to fight?" Ximenyu wondered. In that case, wouldn't the chance of winning be much greater? It would also reduce unnecessary casualties.
"Master Ximen, you don't know something. There are not many high-grade god-level experts in our Xuan Temple. In addition to the hall master, deputy hall master, and the top ten founding hall elders, there are only Hall Master Wei, Hall Master Zheng, etc.
The hall masters have reached this level. Generally speaking, our Xuan Temple only has about twenty high-level masters. Moreover, they have many things to deal with and have more important things to deal with. Naturally, they cannot accompany us on the expedition." Divine Master Zhuang Yan.
He smiled and looked very easy-going.
"Zhuang Yan is right. We have other difficult matters to deal with, so we can only entrust you with full authority to represent our Xuan Temple in the expedition. Please, everyone." Hall Master Zheng Feng stood up and raised his hands to Ximen Yu and others.
.
"Hall Master Zheng is serious. As a member of the Eastern God Realm, it is our duty to eliminate demons and defend the Way." Divine Master Zhuang Yan quickly responded.
"Brother Zhuang is saying, please rest assured, Hall Master Zheng, we will not embarrass the Xuan Temple." Chief Divine Master Liu Chong also agreed.
Ximenyu saw that their words were serious and did not look like a show, and he wondered in his heart: "Is the person who wants to murder me behind my back one of them? Or is there someone else?"
"Ximen Yu, why...are you in trouble?" Hall Master Zheng Feng saw Ximen Yu's silence and thought that Ximen Yu was greedy for life and afraid of death and did not dare to go on an expedition.
"No, how could it be?" Ximenyu recovered his mind and replied with a smile.
"That's good. If you don't have any objections, just sign the order. After signing, you can officially set off tomorrow." Hall Master Zheng Feng took out the order and said.
"Okay." Divine Master Zhuang Yan first signed his name, which meant that he volunteered to go on the expedition. During the period of his departure, any life or death would no longer have anything to do with the Xuan Temple.
Liu Chong also picked up the order of departure, read it quickly, and signed his name.
"Hall Master Zheng, do all the divine masters who go on an expedition have to sign this order?" Ximenyu did not sign immediately, but asked a question.
"Yes, if Master Ximen feels embarrassed, you can refuse to become a teacher. I will find someone else. Of course, you should not feel any pressure. After all, we follow the principle of voluntariness."
"If I shrink back when the time comes, I'm afraid everyone's spit will drown me." Ximenyu no longer hesitated and signed his name decisively.
"Haha, how could it be possible? Divine Master Ximen really loves to joke." Hall Master Zheng put away his order and said with satisfaction.
Master Zhuang Yan next to him saw that Ximenyu had signed, and the stone in his heart finally fell to the ground. He was really afraid that Ximenyu would give up and dare not sign the order. In that case, how could he cooperate to complete the secret mission.
"Exterminating demons and defending the Tao is what I should do. No matter whether there are monsters, monsters or anything else in front of me, I am bound to do it." Ximen Yu solemnly declared.
