Bai Luo shifted her hips, trying to make herself more comfortable.

He took a deep breath and slowly said, "Actually... we were both sent by the sect to gather information. To put it bluntly, we're just pawns abandoned by the sect."

After arriving here and experiencing life as a human on Earth for two days, I found that it wasn't as scary as I had imagined.

Therefore, I have no intention of sending news of Blue Star back. After all, if the sects knew of Blue Star's existence, they would definitely send people to plunder it, plunging Blue Star into chaos.

Ming Chen inwardly scoffed at Bai Luo's easy surrender, but he didn't show it on his face. Instead, he immediately echoed with a sincere expression, "Yes, yes! Brother Bai is absolutely right. We really didn't do anything, and we don't plan to do anything afterward!"

Jiang Wanwan was completely skeptical of what these two people said. She knew the principle that those who were not of her kind would surely have different hearts.

However, now is not the time to turn against them, so we still need to interrogate them in detail first.

So, Jiang Wanwan began to inquire about the two men's backgrounds.

Upon learning that the two individuals came from the Wuji Sect and Tianyin Sect of the Donghao Continent in the Nine Heavens Continent, respectively, and that they were merely insignificant figures within their sects, even sent there as pawns, Jiang Wanwan breathed a sigh of relief while simultaneously calculating the potential value of these two individuals.

Then, Jiang Wanwan learned from the two that the mysterious person who had been coveting Blue Star was named Jun Ye, as well as information about the distribution of forces on the Nine Heavens Continent.

This information gave her a better understanding of that unfamiliar continent.

Finally, Jiang Wanwan also found out the exact location of the passage they came down from the upper realm. It seems that a few more formations need to be added.

"Now that you two have been abandoned by your respective sects, how about coming to my Xiaoyao Sect?" Jiang Wanwan extended an olive branch, her eyes revealing sincerity and expectation.

Mingze and Bailuo exchanged a glance, both feeling somewhat hesitant. Although they were not valued by the sect, they still harbored a deep sense of loyalty and gratitude.

Mingze slowly shook his head, his gaze firm and unwavering: "Although we are not valued by the sect and are not part of the direct line, we were taken in by the sect when we were at our lowest point, and we dare not betray our sect to join another sect."

Bai Luo nodded in agreement, his eyes gleaming with determination: "That's right. Although the sect has treated us unfairly, we cannot forget the initial kindness we received. No matter what, we will not leave our sect easily."

Jiang Wanwan secretly admired the two men's perseverance and loyalty, and nodded slightly to show her understanding.

However, she did not give up, but continued, "Have you ever heard the story of the crane and the clam fighting, and the fisherman reaping the benefits?"

These words made Mingze and Bailu frown, as if they had realized something.

Bai Luo's narrow eyes flickered, and she humbly asked, "Miss, please explain!"

Jiang Wanwan took the spiritual tea offered by Yan Ziyan, took a sip, and said, "Speaking of which, the fact that your two major sects traveled thousands of miles to explore our Blue Star is only because of Jun Ye's instigation. Perhaps he's just waiting for us to fight to the death with your two major sects or other sects, while he reaps the benefits from behind!"

Bai Luo and Ming Ze both had expressions of realization. Given Jun Ye's reputation over the years, he might actually have this plan.

Jiang Wanwan walked slowly around the two people with her hands behind her back, saying as she walked, "Blue Star is now full of powerful people, and with the help of the Heavenly Dao, even if you outsiders want to cause trouble, you may not be able to succeed. Wouldn't it be better to cooperate with us?"

Mingze exclaimed in surprise, "Cooperation?"

Jiang Wanwan nodded and continued, "That's right, it's about cooperation. We can exchange resources or make some deals. You should understand what I mean, right?"

Mingze and Bailuo exchanged a glance, a glint of light in their eyes. They thought the idea was excellent, but they wondered if the sect would agree.

Jiang Wanwan clapped her hands and continued, "Alright, I've said everything I needed to say. You two take this pill, and you'll be allowed to move freely within the Xiaoyao Sect afterward. Come back and discuss the cooperation with me when you've thought it through!"

After saying that, she handed the Shadow Pill to Yan Ziyan, who was standing next to her, and gestured for him to supervise the two of them taking the pill.

This Shadow Pill was actually created by Jiang Wanwan, inspired by the Shadow Stone. It can cause a cultivator to lose all their cultivation for a short period of time, turning them into an ordinary mortal.

Before the two could react, Yan Ziyan flicked his wrist and sent the pills into their mouths.

Both of them rolled their eyes at the same time, cursing inwardly: No martial ethics!

After resolving the issues between the two, Jiang Wanwan began taking Yan Ziyan around, intending to find research talent for Yan Jun.

This requires long-term work in the underworld, which is definitely not feasible for ordinary mortals, and cultivators are not necessarily engaged in scientific research.

So, it's really hard to find.

In Qing Shi Town, due to the influence of the Xiaoyao Sect, housing prices have now skyrocketed to astronomical levels.

The town's market was bustling with people, and pedestrians came and went in an endless stream.

Jiang Wanwan and Yan Ziyan wandered around for a long time, but still couldn't find a satisfactory talent. So they decided to buy some spiritual food in Qing Shi Town first and then go out to search in more distant places the next day.

As they strolled through the market, a group of people suddenly gathered not far ahead, seemingly watching something exciting.

"Senior brother, let's go take a look!"

Jiang Wanwan excitedly grabbed Yan Ziyan's hand and ran eagerly toward the crowd.

Yan Ziyan smiled indulgently as he gently embraced Jiang Wanwan, carefully protecting her, and together they squeezed into the bustling crowd.

Jiang Wanwan was suddenly pulled into Yan Ziyan's arms, and was momentarily dazed.

She caught a whiff of her senior brother's familiar cool fragrance and secretly considered whether she should take the opportunity to touch him. However, before she could act on it, her senior brother had already led her to the best spot to watch the spectacle.

"Waaah... Dad, don't go, I'll listen to you, okay?"

Jiang Wanwan looked at the boy who was crying with tears and snot streaming down his face. He was holding a middle-aged man whose mouth and clothes were covered in blood.

"Hey! Isn't that Mu Tingchuan, President Mu, covered in blood?"

Jiang Wanwan exclaimed in surprise, wanting to go forward and see if she could help in any way.

Yan Ziyan quickly pulled her aside, shook his head, and whispered, "I just saw President Mu secretly blinking, so it's probably nothing serious!"

As soon as Yan Ziyan finished speaking, a middle-aged man standing next to him said loudly, "Xiao Zhou! Your father's biggest wish is for you to be admitted to the Xiaoyao Sect. Don't let your father down!"
