"Every word I have said is the truth, and I would never dare to deceive Sect Master Su in the slightest!" Han Shan knelt on one knee, clasped his hands in a fist and said heavily.
"Shouyang Mountain...a blessed land..."
Su Yuewan narrowed her beautiful eyes slightly, tapping her jade-like fingers lightly, and remained silent in contemplation.
A blessed land is essentially a small-scale ancient site. However, most blessed lands are naturally formed, not man-made. They mainly contain rare and precious materials and other treasures created by nature. They may not be particularly valuable, but occasionally they may contain some extremely rare spiritual plants.
In addition, the danger level of a blessed land is very low. The only difficulty is cracking the entrance. However, for a first-class sect, cracking the entrance of a blessed land is not difficult; it is just a matter of time.
So basically, finding a blessed land is a win.
[It's just a mere blessed land, what's so special about it? We'll be working ourselves to the bone, dealing with the people from the Divine Sea Sect, and who knows, we might even have to fight them.]
Bai Hao, who was standing to the side, was a little drowsy, and the blessed land that Han Shan mentioned did not arouse his interest.
It's mainly useless. He only used his blessed land twice, and then it was basically useless.
Therefore, he had no good impression of any of the blessed lands and grottoes. They said that the precious spiritual plants and herbs were probably just two ginseng and lingzhi mushrooms or something. He felt he had been ripped off.
But he didn't want to go, while some people did the exact opposite of what he wanted.
Originally, Su Yuewan hadn't decided whether to go or not, but now, she suddenly had her answer, and said to Han Shan with a languid expression:
"Since you are so sincere, I will trust you this once. I will send a few people later. Sect Master Han, you will be responsible for leading the way. If we do find the blessed land of the Divine Sea Sect, the Falling Sea Sect will protect your Cloud Water Sect regardless of whether we obtain it or not."
"yes!"
Han Shan bowed to the side and withdrew.
After Han Shan left, only Su Yuewan and Bai Hao remained in the main hall.
Su Yuewan turned to look at Bai Hao, a subtle smile playing on her beautiful face. She said, "Bai Hao, you must have heard what Han Shan said just now, right?"
The moment Bai Hao heard Su Yuewan call his name, he knew something was wrong.
This woman is going to cause me trouble again...
“I heard you…” Bai Hao already knew what Su Yuewan wanted to say. She didn't disappoint him, getting straight to the point.
"In that case, you will lead the team this time. You can choose a few disciples and go with Sect Master Han."
"Me, leading the team?" Bai Hao almost choked on his own saliva, pointing at himself with an incredulous look on his face.
He had already anticipated that Su Yuewan would send him, but he hadn't expected her to ask him to lead the team.
Does that mean Su Yuewan isn't going? And none of the elders are going either?
“Sect Master, this matter is so important, I think it would be safer for you to lead the team yourself,” Bai Hao said.
That's the Divine Sea Sect, a sect teeming with geniuses. Not to mention that the Divine Sea Sect is definitely led by elders, even if they are disciples...
They are no match for the genius disciples of the Divine Sea Sect.
And they even let him choose his own team leader, are they trying to send him into the lion's den?
"You are now the senior disciple of our Luohai Sect, isn't it only right that you go?" Su Yuewan said calmly, a faint smile playing on her lips.
She loved seeing Bai Hao like this; the more flustered Bai Hao was, the happier she was.
"But that's not how it works. Apart from you, Sect Master, the gap between us and the Divine Sea Sect is so huge. Any disciple from the other sect is stronger than most of our disciples. Without you, how can we possibly go?" Bai Hao continued to plead.
This is practically sending me to my death! I absolutely refuse to go!
I'm going to die, let's see who's going to cook for you!
"What, are you scared already?" Su Yuewan rested her chin on her hand, blinking as she looked at Bai Hao. "Or are you saying you can't handle it?"
This is a provocation, a blatant provocation!
Bai Hao's eyes widened immediately, and he said, "Who says I can't! I'll go then, who's afraid of who!"
You can say a man is a coward or afraid of death, but you can never say he's incompetent!
“Very good.” Su Yuewan snapped her fingers and smiled. “How about this, Zheng Long, Fan Ziming, and you, the three of you go.”
"Three...three people?" Bai Hao's face immediately fell, and he said with a mournful expression:
"No, Sect Master, it's one thing if you don't lead the team, but you're assigning the three of us to go too? You think too highly of us!"
Three people, or rather, three disciples, went to cause trouble for the Divine Sea Sect?
This is absolutely laughable.
It would be more appropriate if three elders went—although the Falling Sea Sect currently only has two elders.
But two is fine too; two elders are better than three disciples.
Su Yuewan was basically sending them to their deaths.
"Don't worry, I know what I'm doing. Here, this is for you." Su Yuewan suddenly tossed something to Bai Hao.
Bai Hao quickly caught it and held it in his hand—it was a small jade pendant with the character "Su" engraved on it.
"This is my teleportation token. As long as you input your true energy into it, a spatial array will be created, through which I can teleport directly to your location. Is that alright?"
"Anywhere is fine?"
Su Yuewan nodded.
"Yes, even different spaces are fine, unless someone stronger than me interferes."
Bai Hao's eyes lit up immediately.
That's good. In other words, it appears that the three of them are going this time, but in reality, they can call for backup at any time, and they can even call Su Yuewan directly.
Once Su Yuewan is summoned, the situation can be reversed, and the mere Divine Sea Sect will be easily captured.
He didn't believe that the Divine Sea Sect would also be led directly by Feng Qingjue.
Moreover, even if it were Feng Qingjue, Su Yuewan would not be afraid of him at all.
So, this time it's a sure thing!
"Okay, then I'll go find Little Fatty and the steamer right now, and be ready to leave at any time!" Bai Hao was full of confidence, put away the jade pendant and left.
Watching his retreating figure, Su Yuewan couldn't help but laugh, "What an idiot, he got tricked so easily. Whether I go or not is entirely up to me, even if you open it, I might not go."
She could already picture Bai Hao's relief when he tried to call her but couldn't see her, and how frustrated he must have been.
She wanted to teach Bai Hao a lesson, to see if he would dare to be so disobedient again, not even listening to her.
Of course, she would still go if danger really arose, but based on her understanding of Bai Hao, she estimated that he would probably summon her as soon as he arrived at Shouyang Mountain...
