Chapter 872: The center of the storm!
It was ten o'clock in the evening and the night was hazy.
A shocking piece of news spread like wildfire across China.
"Ye Mu, the Western God of War before the new era, returned from training in the Tianxuan Realm. He now possesses both gold and fire attributes, has reached the seventh level of cultivation, and has mastered a weapon refining skill that is most needed by practitioners!"
These words spread to every inch of China almost instantly, and invisibly pushed Ye Mu to the forefront!
The Lingyuan Pavilion, located in the northeast, is one of the three major forces in China.
"Based on the date Ye Mu returned, he and my son Sima Gang arrived at the Shennongjia teleportation array on the same day!" A middle-aged man in a suit and tie, with sword-like eyebrows raised, exuded a murderous aura in the conference room.
"Old Sima, do you think Ye Mu is the murderer of your son?" A beautiful girl in black stockings, holding a cigar in her hand, sat opposite Sima Hong, with smoke lingering between the two of them.
"Apart from Ye Mu, I can't think of anyone else who would dare to kill my son!"
Sima Hong clenched his fists so tightly that they creaked. "That day, when my son was teleported from Canglan Star, all the monitoring terminals near the Shennongjia teleportation array were destroyed. This explains everything."
"Then... Baihua, who was with your son Sima Gang, could it be..." The girl in black silk stockings seemed to have made up her mind, slamming the cigar in her hand firmly on the table. "This matter is of great importance. I will send people to investigate as soon as possible. If everything is true, Ye Mu must die to pay the price."
"Before he dies, it's necessary to deprive him of the profession of weapon refining. It can be regarded as a way to get some recompense for my son's tragic death." Sima Hong stood up suddenly. "I will also investigate it myself."
Soon, all departments under Lingyuan Pavilion received news of the investigation into Ye Mu.
at the same time.
Within the influence of Jiangnan Jiuzhou Pavilion.
An old man with white hair and beard gazed at the northern night. "Everyone, Ye Mu has been training in the Tianxuan Realm for more than five months and has mastered the skills of refining weapons. I believe he has more opportunities. I personally suggest that we make friends with him. What do you think?"
"Pavilion Master, he has been training for five months, but he is only at the seventh level. Is it necessary to be on good terms with him?" An old man with an injured left eye, but his right eye was bright and showed disdain.
"I agree with Elder Mo's point of view."
Another middle-aged woman said, "Pavilion Master, haven't you ever considered that Ye Mu only gained two attributes after more than five months of training in the Tianxuan Realm? And Elder Mo has only been practicing for less than three months, and he also gained two attributes. In terms of talent, Ye Mu is not a leader."
Elder Mo immediately laughed and said, "Don't praise an old man like me. Although I was lucky enough to comprehend two attributes, I still lost my left eye. A one-eyed man like me doesn't have any talent to speak of. It was just luck."
"You both have a point."
The white-haired old man was named Qin Zheng, the head of Jiuzhou Pavilion. He smiled and nodded, then changed the subject and said, "But you should have heard that I only value Ye Mu's weapon refining skills."
"If it's about refining skills, it's not an exaggeration to make friends with him." Elder Mo and Qin Zheng shared the same opinion on this point.
The middle-aged woman shook her head again. "Even though Earth has undergone a resurgence of spiritual energy and everyone has embraced martial arts, with the increase in practitioners, there is indeed a need for handy magical weapons to increase personal combat effectiveness. However, I believe that the use of these weapons is still far less mature than that of high-tech weapons."
"Yu Min, I need to correct you on this point."
Qin Zheng smiled gently and said, "There's indeed a huge technological gap between cold weapons and high-tech weapons. It might seem like cold weapons aren't very effective. But you don't seem to understand that when a handy cold weapon recognizes its master with blood, the power and properties inherent in it are far beyond the reach of high-tech weapons."
After saying that, he reached out and turned on the 3D holographic technology on the wall of the conference room. Some mythological characters and their respective weapons appeared and moved rapidly on the screen.
"Yu Min, the Pavilion Master is right. No matter how powerful high-tech weapons are, they are still far inferior to cold weapons. I support the Pavilion Master's suggestion to make friends with Ye Mu. If we can obtain weapon refining skills from him and integrate them with the smelting technology of high-tech weapons, its power will surely be astonishing." Elder Mo also began to become serious.
"That makes sense." Yu Min looked as if he had suddenly understood something.
At this time, the white-haired Pavilion Master Qin Zheng smiled and said, "In that case, our Jiuzhou Pavilion will send an invitation letter to Ye Mu overnight, inviting him to join us."
"Pavilion Master, an invitation alone is not sincere enough."
Elder Mo covered his blind left eye with a black cloth and stood up. "How about this? I'll leave tonight and go to the Zhongjing City base to give him the invitation letter in person."
"Thank you for your hard work, Elder Mo."
…
In just one hour, more than thirty forces of all sizes from all over the country sent people to Zhongjing City, the former imperial capital, to find ways to make friends with Ye Mu.
The foundation is located in the Yanhuang Pavilion in Zhongjing City, and research is still ongoing.
"Are you going to admit your mistake to Ye Mu just for a weapon refining skill? I'm the first to object!"
A middle-aged man with a big head and thick neck was standing in the Yanhuang Pavilion conference room and was raging with anger.
"Boss Xue, aren't we discussing this? There's no need to be so angry, right?" Qingtian, who was sitting in the first seat, waved his hand with an embarrassed look on his face, motioning Boss Xue to sit down.
His name is Xue Taimao. He owns a black crystal mine, which is also the only black crystal mine in the imperial capital.
In this new era of spiritual energy revival, being able to open a black crystal mine is undoubtedly like sitting on a gold mine.
Just because he reached a cooperative relationship with Yanhuang Pavilion, his son Xue Jing became an elder here who only had a free meal.
Not long ago, Xue Jing and Chu Lingyu offended Ye Mu in Junlin Bar, and Ye Mu crippled their left arms.
This incident made Xue Taimao extremely furious!
In order to avenge his son, he rushed to Yanhuang Pavilion and asked the Pavilion Master Qingtian to give him an explanation.
However, Qingtian and others were discussing how to invite Ye Mu back to Yanhuang Pavilion to serve as the chief elder, and a dispute arose between the two sides.
"Master Qingtian, I hope you can give me a proper explanation tomorrow, which will also consolidate our friendship. Otherwise, even without your help, I can still kill Ye Mu!"
After Xue Taimao said this, he left angrily.
Qingtian was very troubled by this.
Behind Xue Taimao, there is a distant relative who is the strongest person known in China so far, a ninth-grade strongman, with a single name - Long.
Long, this person is like a mysterious dragon that can’t be seen from head to tail, and no one knows whether he is a man or a woman.
Today, Long is serving as the chief conservation officer at the Zhonghai Nature Reserve.
Therefore, due to the distant relative behind Xue Taimao, Qingtian could only silently endure Xue Taimao's anger here without getting angry.
"Xingchen, closely monitor Xue Taimao's actions and prevent him from contacting that person from Zhonghai."
After pondering for a moment, Qingtian immediately made a decision, "Lanyue, you'll be in charge here. I'm going to meet Ye Mu in person. If I can invite him here, I'll make him the chief elder. Otherwise, I'll get rid of him!"
