"Mr. Long, have you talked with Miss Daji?" Li Jing didn't expect Long Junhai to come out so soon, and he was somewhat surprised.
"Yes, I have met him. After all, I am not the Duke of Dongbo, so he seemed a little unfamiliar with me. So we exchanged a few pleasantries and nothing else. It's getting late now, so we won't bother you. General Li, please spend more time with your wife and children. We'll take our leave now." Long Junhai said with a smile.
"Would you two like to stay a little longer? I have asked someone to prepare a banquet, and I hope you two can stay and have a meal." Li Jing said with a smile.
"No need, we have other things to deal with, so we won't bother you too much."
"General Li, there's no need to be so polite. We are all family."
Long Junhai, Jiang Ziya and Li Jing exchanged a few pleasantries and then went their separate ways.
After leaving the Li family's house, Jiang Ziya asked quietly, "Master, have you finished your business?"
"It's half successful. I think Su Daji hasn't been possessed and controlled by the fox demon yet, so this matter needs to be replanned. I will first go to my eldest brother to borrow some powerful defensive magic weapons. Once I gain Su Daji's trust, things will be much easier later." Long Junhai said with a smile.
"Are you still going to Taoist Duobao?" Jiang Ziya didn't expect that he would have to use the power of Jiejiao so soon. You know, this is just the beginning. It seems that the road ahead will be really difficult.
"Come with me. You are also a disciple of Jiejiao now, so it's a good opportunity for you to visit Tongtian Palace."
Half a month later, Long Junhai and Jiang Ziya appeared in Tongtian Palace, which was still as deserted as before.
Long Junhai casually issued an imperial decree, which was a secret order for the disciples of Jiejiao to gather in Tongtian Palace.
After a while, Taoist Duobao, Holy Mother Wuliang and two young disciples appeared in the hall.
"Junior brother, it's you! I thought Master wanted to talk to us about something urgent!" said the Infinite Holy Mother somewhat displeased.
"Hello, Senior Brother, Hello, Second Senior Sister, why haven't Third Senior Sister and the other disciples arrived yet?" Long Junhai asked with a smile.
"Don't mention it. Your third senior sister has been blocked by people from the Chan Sect recently. Two of her disciples are gone. It's hard to say whether your third senior sister can escape now. Naturally, she can't come." The Infinite Holy Mother said with a wry smile.
Hearing this, Long Junhai frowned and said, "Did you know that Third Senior Sister was trapped but you didn't help her?"
"How to save her? She went to the territory of the Chan Sect and stole the ten thousand year old Black Green Vine, and was surrounded and beaten to death. Are we going to die too?" asked the Infinite Holy Mother somewhat unhappily.
Long Junhai narrowed his eyes and pondered for a moment, then said, "Big Brother, do you think so too?"
Taoist Duobao sighed and said, "I'm only at the late Golden Immortal stage, and the Xianjiao sect already has twelve peak-level Golden Immortal masters! The rest are no less than a hundred. Your Second Senior Sister and I would just die if we went there! We have the will but not the strength. Even if we consider the ties between us fellow disciples, what can we do? Forget us. Even if we invite Master out, I'm afraid there's no way to rescue the people from the Xianjiao sect. The grudge between us and the Xianjiao sect is already irreconcilable."
What Taoist Duobao said was the truth. Even if Patriarch Tongtian came to the door in person, Yuanshi Tianzun would not let him go. In recent years, countless monks from the Jiejiao were besieged and killed by the Chenjiao, so no one dares to join the Jiejiao now!
"Fellow disciples are like brothers. If anyone gets into trouble in the future, would you like to be rescued or not?" Long Junhai looked around at everyone with a smile.
Everyone looked at each other, their faces somewhat embarrassed. Finally, Duobao Taoist said, "If we were in trouble, of course we would hope to be rescued. However, Third Junior Sister's situation is rather special. How could we possibly run to someone else's territory to rescue her?"
"If we take back the territory of the Chan Sect, won't it become our territory?" Long Junhai asked with a smile.
"Ah? How is this possible! The Xianjiao sect is so powerful now, we are no match for them at all. We must stay away from them for the time being and wait until we become stronger before we can slowly take action!" said the Infinite Holy Mother.
"Temporarily avoid the limelight? How long will it take? The prerequisite for becoming strong is self-reliance. Now our own people are almost extinct, so how can we still be strong then?" Long Junhai said angrily.
"Fourth Brother, how dare you talk like that? Don't think that you dare to ignore us just because you have the support of our master! At the very least, we have the cultivation level of a Golden Immortal. How dare you, a mortal immortal, talk to us in such a tone? You really don't know how to live or die!" The aura of the Infinite Holy Mother burst out, forcing Long Junhai to take several steps back before he could stabilize his body.
"Haha, you're just a rat with a gun in his pocket. If you have the ability, why don't you go and save people?" Long Junhai said sarcastically.
The Infinite Holy Mother raised her eyebrows and said in a cold voice, "You're looking for death! Even if I can't kill you, I should teach you a lesson! Today I'll let you know what respect and hierarchy mean!"
Wuliang Shengmu was about to take action when Duobao Daoist stopped her: "Second Junior Sister, don't be impulsive. Junior Brother is young and hot-tempered, so naturally he gets a little angry. When he reaches our age, he won't be so impulsive anymore."
Hearing this, Long Junhai sneered and said bluntly, "Big Brother, courage has nothing to do with age! If you don't go to rescue them, I'll go myself!"
"Haha, you are so arrogant! Little Junior Brother, don't tell me that I, your Second Senior Sister, look down on you. Let's not even talk about whether you can meet your Third Senior Sister alive. Even if you really meet her, it is still unknown whether she is dead or alive. Moreover, do you think you can rescue people alive under the siege of a group of Golden Immortals?" The Infinite Holy Mother had a mocking look on her face, thinking that Long Junhai was just a fool who was trying to fight a rock with an egg!
"If I really rescue the person, can you show some appreciation?" Long Junhai asked with a smile.
"Haha, if you really have this ability, my life as the Infinite Holy Mother will be yours from now on! I will absolutely obey any of your orders! If I go against what I said today, my path to immortality will be cut off and I will fall into the endless hell forever!" The Infinite Holy Mother swore a poisonous oath.
"Second Senior Sister is indeed a straightforward person. Don't worry, I will never let you down!" Long Junhai said very confidently.
"Wait, what if you can't save the person?" asked the Infinite Holy Mother.
Hearing this, Long Junhai smiled and said, "If I can't save the person, my life will definitely be left there, and no one will challenge the dignity of Second Senior Sister in the future."
The Infinite Holy Mother snorted coldly and said nothing more, while the Taoist Duobao beside her advised, "Junior brother, you must not be impulsive. You are the person that Master values most. Right now, Master is preparing for the Infinite Tribulation. If he finds out that you have had an accident, how can I explain it to him?"
