Main Text Chapter 501 You Have to Obey Even if You Don’t Want To
(Thank you to ‘Leng Xingyue’ for being famous for the first time in 9.2, and I will give you more!)
"Exactly!" Tao Qingli nodded and said: "When I went to Tianwaitian with the palace master to visit the Immortal Saint, it happened that the Immortal Saint received the news that someone saw the 'Netherworld Dragon Boat' reappearing. It just so happened that the palace owner was the Immortal Saint again. The most trustworthy person has given this task to us, Shui Xing Palace."
In fact, the real situation is that after Grandma Tao and Tao Qingli met with the Immortal Saint, they were talking about "family life" with the Immortal Saint. At that time, several disciples of the Immortal Saint were present. At this time, someone outside suddenly asked for Hu Yan, the eldest disciple of the Immortal Saint. The Taibao, after going out for a while, came back in a hurry. He didn't know what he reported to the Immortal Saint, but he saw that the Immortal Saint's face changed drastically.
The people below did not dare to speak and all looked at the Immortal Saint. After a long silence, the Immortal Saint's eyes fell on Granny Tao. Granny Tao and Taibao Huyan were left alone, while the others were dismissed. At this time, Mu Fanjun said to Granny Tao: "The Netherworld Dragon Boat has appeared again!"
Grandma Tao was shocked...
The mission assigned by the Immortal Saint himself sounded nice and inspiring, but the ten palace masters, including Miao Yi, were on the verge of tears. It would have been better if they had not heard the mission. Since they had heard it, it meant You don't even have the right to refuse, so you have to go anyway.
Miao Yi regretted that he didn't complain about illness and found an excuse not to come, but who knew! I had never dreamed of encountering something like this before.
The other nine palace masters also had the same idea as him.
Someone bit the bullet and asked, "What can I do in that place on the Flowing Clouds and Sand Sea with my level of cultivation? I guess it would be more suitable for people from Tianwaitian to go there than us, right?"
Tao Qingli replied: "This matter is of great importance. Once the news is leaked, it will definitely cause chaos in the spiritual world! Now the news is still under top-secret blockade. Only a handful of people know, even a few disciples of the Immortal Saint. The Immortal Saint is also interested. The six countries know each other well, but it is inconvenient for people from Tianwaitian to show up. Suddenly appearing and staying in Liuyunshahai will definitely arouse suspicion. The monks in the Red Lotus Realm have a wide network of contacts and have too many acquaintances, so it is also inconvenient to show up. , and the people under my water palace have less contact with the outside world, so I found you."
Everyone was silent. Someone else hesitated and said: "It's not that we don't want to go, but that place in Liuyunshahai. With our cultivation level, we are really afraid of missing the palace master's important event!"
Tao Qingli said: "Don't worry, I'm not going here to do anything to kill you, but to blend into the flowing clouds and sand sea to look for traces of the 'Netherworld Dragon Ship', and to inquire about news everywhere. If anything unusual is found, . Immediately report to the branch of the Immortal Kingdom Chamber of Commerce in Flowing Clouds and Sand Sea. The Tianwaitian Society hides its masters in the Chamber of Commerce. Someone will do the killing. Just hand over the information and don't compete with others. It must be dangerous. Not big either.”
It must not be too dangerous? presumably? Everyone was speechless.
Then I heard Tao Qingli say: "In order to facilitate your trip, I have specially arranged for you to have an experienced person as your leader. If he leads you, I believe that the risks you will encounter will be much smaller."
Everyone immediately looked around, but no one else was seen.
Miao Yi was also looking around. He wanted to see which awesome person could help everyone avoid risks in Flowing Clouds and Sand Sea, but Tao Qingli pointed directly at him. "Miao Yi! Don't you have anything to say?"
"I..." Miao Yi was stunned. Almost all of the ten palace masters took turns asking questions, but he was the only one who shrank aside in silence. He shook his head and said, "No!"
The key is that it's useless to say anything. Even the Immortal Saint has moved out, and he knows this huge secret. Is there any way to refuse? Why talk nonsense!
"It seems that Master Miao is very confident about this move!" I don't know whether Tao Qingli was sarcastic or sincerely appreciated.
Miao Yi immediately waved his hands with a wry smile and said, "Walking is ridiculous! I really have no confidence at all in a humble position."
"Why be so modest! Among the monks below Honglian in the entire Water Palace, I'm afraid there is no one more confident than you!" Tao Qingli pointed at Miao Yi and announced to the other nine palace masters: "Everyone! I believe we all know each other. , this is Master Miao Yi, who was killed out of the 180,000 monks in Xingxiu Sea and ranked tenth in the Rebellion Fighting Association. He can come and go in such a dangerous place with ease. One can imagine his ability, and he has a strategy in mind. , with him leading everyone and arranging everyone’s actions in Flowing Clouds and Sand Sea, I think he will be able to help everyone avoid risks to the greatest extent.”
"Walking is ridiculous, the humble position is really... really..." Miao Yi waved his hands repeatedly, but couldn't say any more words of 'humble'. His eyes gradually widened, and his expression gradually became exaggerated. He seemed to have realized something, pointed at his nose and asked in a voice. : "Is it me who is the leader walking around?"
The other nine palace masters looked at him one by one, seemingly saying something, and even a fool could hear it.
Tao Qingli nodded and said: "There really is no more suitable person to lead the team than you! They have stayed in the Water Palace for a long time and have little contact with the outside world. They have little experience. The only advantage of carrying out this task is that no one knows them. , after arriving at Flowing Clouds and Sand Sea, everything they do will obey your decree. You will temporarily assume the authority of the Lord of the Water Palace there. Your decree is the Palace Lord's decree. If anyone resists the decree, you have the right to kill him first and then report him! Even if it is a manslaughter, no one will hold you accountable! In short, your only mission with them is to complete the mission at any cost, and you can pay any price for this!"
The nine palace lords were all shocked. This power was too great, right? To issue decrees on behalf of the palace lord? Can you kill it first and then play it later?
This shows how determined Grandma Tao and Tao Qingli were to complete this mission.
Actually, there was no other way. The two of them would have to rely on Mu Fanjun for some things in the future. Mu Fanjun trusted them so much that he could tell them the secrets that most of his disciples had concealed, and he gave them such a top-secret task. Naturally, they would do whatever it took to satisfy Mu Fanjun. What did a few deaths matter?
The two of them were still thinking about who would be the best person to carry out this mission on their way back. They didn't have to think much. The most suitable person that the grandmother and grandson thought of at the same time was Miao Yi. Given the situation in the Water Palace, was there a more suitable person than Miao Yi?
Tao Qingli was not being polite when he praised Miao Yi before. Just from what this guy did in the Zhengui Palace, he knew that he was indeed brave and resourceful. He was worthy of being killed out of the 180,000 cultivators in the Xingxiu Sea. His reputation was well-deserved!
Originally, the grandmother and grandson had other expectations for Miao Yi, but suddenly they ran into this incident. All their plans had to be put aside. Completing the task assigned by the immortal saint at all costs was more important than anything else, so this happened.
"..." Miao Yi was dumbfounded and silent, then waved his hand and said: "I really can't do it. I know nothing about Liuyun Sand Sea. I think each of them knows more than me. Let's choose someone else to walk!"
This power is useless. It's better to let me execute the decree in Shuixing Palace. The most important thing is to find a way to save my life in Liuyun Sand Sea. What kind of power is it to command these nine guys? Whoever wants to command these burdens can command them by himself. I don't want to be implicated. Let the damn nether dragon ship go to hell. It's better to go through the formalities and come back alive.
He is already thinking about how to protect himself in Liuyun Sand Sea. Why would he waste energy on these people? He would rather listen to other people's orders and let others exercise the power of the palace. It's a joke that these few people want to kill him first and report later. It's not known who will kill whom. Who knows who killed them if a few people die in that place!
"Hey! I don't like to force people." Granny Tao, who had been sitting on the throne with her eyes closed, suddenly opened her eyes and waved her hand, saying, "Since Master Miao doesn't want to go, forget it. I won't force you. Go back to Shuiyun Mansion."
The other nine pairs of eyes stared at Miao Yi to see if he could understand what she was saying.
"..."Miao Yi's expression twitched. You old woman, you don't want me to go back, you clearly want my life! If I don't participate in this huge secret, can you let me go back alive?
Miao Yi suddenly looked serious, and said with his hands clasped: "I do feel overwhelmed! However, the Palace Master favors me, how dare Miao Yi not die for me! As long as the Palace Master is not afraid that I will fail to live up to his trust, Miao Yi is willing to go through fire and water without hesitation!"
Grandma Tao said "hmm" and nodded: "Good job, you have a future! Then it's settled! There is no one more suitable than you, I will leave the mission of this trip to you, don't let me down!"
Miao Yi looked solemn, and said seriously: "I will do my best to work together with the nine palace masters!" He glanced at the nine palace masters and found that the nine looked at him with a strange look in their eyes?
What are you looking at? Compared with you guys, I know what's good for me! Miao Yi's eyes flashed coldly.
The nine were startled by his cold stare, and then they remembered that this person held the power of life and death over them. They immediately turned back and bowed to Granny Tao, saying, "I am willing to die for you!"
The matter was settled, and Granny Tao, who was in control, closed her eyes again.
Tao Qingli said again, "You must hide your identity on this trip, and just pretend to be a casual cultivator, so that it will be easier to blend into the Flowing Cloud Sand Sea. In order to avoid alarming all parties, the people who send you will only send you halfway, and you have to walk the rest of the way by yourself. After returning, you must not mention this to anyone. If the news is leaked, you will be killed without mercy! You must arrive at your designated location at the designated time to gather, and there must be no mistakes! Do you have any questions?"
Everyone looked at each other, with too many questions, and no one wanted to go, but would it be useful?
No one had any objections, so things were easy to handle. Tao Qingli personally distributed a storage ring and a beast bag to each person, 10 million gold crystals per person, plus a communication eagle. Miao Yi, the "leader", had more money, 50 million gold crystals.
After explaining the details, Tao Qingli let the few people go.
After going down the mountain, Miao Yi just found his mount, and the nine palace masters came over to greet him. It was not right to be impolite, as this person held the power of life and death over them.
"Everyone!" Since they were delivered to the door, Miao Yi was not polite and stretched out his hand to the nine people, "In order to prevent someone from taking the money and not doing things properly, the money that Xingxing just gave to you will be temporarily handed over to me for safekeeping, and then Miao will make unified arrangements!"
