These words also made Bai Wenjin feel panicked.
He seemed to have really angered the emperor.
He was anxious, and thinking that the Bai family must not be destroyed in his hands, he thought about going to the emperor to confess his crime.
Now he no longer thought about getting the Divine Source Stone back from Sheng Mingyue, but only thought about how to get the forgiveness of the Emperor Zhaixian.
The Immortal-Picking Saint was just casually talking to Bai Wenjin and didn't take it to heart. He came here for other things to do.
When Cui Yuanfeng, Mu Lifeng and others appeared in front of the Immortal Sage, his expression eased a little.
"I heard that you have gathered a lot of troops."
Mu Lifeng smiled and replied, "Not many, just some veterans who fought alongside us. These veterans also wanted a place to settle down, so they established a state here."
"That's right." The Immortal-Picking Saint nodded. "Since you are a veteran, you shouldn't continue to fight on the battlefield. You should rest well."
Mu Lifeng felt that this was an attempt to weaken him, so he quickly said, "We are not fighting a war. We are just trying to maintain public order. Cangzhou still needs it."
The Immortal-Picking Saint narrowed his eyes and asked, "How many troops are there in Cangzhou now?"
Mu Lifeng thought that with the cultivation level of the Spiritual Emperor, he should be able to find out the situation in Cangzhou just by sending out his spiritual sense, so he did not hide it.
"Three hundred thousand."
"Three hundred thousand." The Immortal-Picking Saint nodded. "How are their cultivation levels?"
"There are all levels of cultivation. The lowest is just a great spiritual master, and the highest is close to the strength of a spiritual master."
The Immortal-Picking Saint frowned slightly, obviously not very satisfied with the result.
"So, they are indeed old, weak, sick and disabled." The Immortal Picking Saint looked at Mu Lifeng, "Tomorrow you will bring out all those who have the cultivation level of Spirit Emperor and above in the Cangzhou army."
Mu Lifeng frowned, not knowing what the Immortal Picking Saint was going to do, but he always had a bad feeling.
"Yes," he agreed.
The Immortal Picking Saint glanced at him and said, "Don't worry, I won't do anything. I just want to understand the situation in Cangzhou."
Mu Lifeng nodded repeatedly, but he didn't believe it at all in his heart.
Mu Lifeng quickly retreated and hurried to find Mu Lingjiu.
Mu Lingjiu had already arranged the teleportation array by this time and was waiting for the banquet to take place.
She hadn't gone to see her master yet because she wasn't sure if he was willing to see her. In addition, she felt even more uneasy after hearing what Lu Zhibai said that Mu Lifeng brought back.
Does the master have other purposes?
What else do you want to do besides occupying Mingkong's body?
Unfortunately, Mu Lingjiu tried to contact Lu Zhibai but failed. He seemed to be avoiding her.
Originally, Lu Zhibai was the one looking for her, but suddenly he was avoiding her, which made her feel a little uncomfortable.
Fortunately, there are many things to do every day, so Mu Lingjiu doesn’t care much.
When Mu Lingjiu saw Mu Lifeng rushing over, he immediately realized that something was wrong.
"What's wrong?"
"The Emperor asked me to gather all the cultivators above the Spiritual Emperor level and bring them to him. I don't know what he's going to do." Mu Lifeng frowned. "This person is unfathomable, and it's hard to say what he's talking about. It just makes people feel uneasy. Lingjiu, I have a bad feeling..."
Upon hearing this, Mu Lingjiu nodded slightly. She also felt unwell.
"Lingjiu, what should we do?"
Mu Lingjiu thought for a moment and said, "Besides this, did he say anything else?"
Mu Lifeng shook his head, "Nothing, just said this."
Mu Lingjiu nodded and said, "Don't worry. My second uncle will bring some people over tomorrow, and I will meet them outside. If anything goes wrong, I will take action."
Mu Lifeng sighed, "This is the only solution for now. If he just wants to see if these people are okay, I'm afraid he will..."
Mu Lifeng touched his neck, wondering if the other party would kill him directly in order to weaken their Cangzhou.
If he kills all the cultivators with the cultivation level above Spirit Emperor, there will be no strong people guarding Cangzhou, and he can destroy them with a wave of his hand.
"I'll go see Cui Yuanfeng first to see if he has received any instructions." Mu Lingjiu said to comfort Mu Lifeng, "Don't worry, Second Uncle, go back and prepare well."
Mu Lifeng nodded, "Yes."
Mu Lingjiu turned around and went to find Cui Yuanfeng again. Cui Yuanfeng had also met the Immortal Picking Saint and was also instructed to gather those with cultivation above the Spirit Emperor level.
There are many cultivators above the Spirit Emperor level in the Red Sea Army. The Immortal-Picking Saint gave him three days, which means that the army will be assembled in three days.
Mu Lingjiu asked people to gather near the teleportation array so that if anything went wrong they could escape immediately.
In the evening, Mu Lingyun found Mu Lingjiu through Cui Yuanfeng.
Mu Lingyun was very excited to see Mu Lingjiu here. He hadn't seen Mu Lingjiu for a long time. He ran up to her and called out.
"Eighth sister."
Mu Lingjiu looked at Mu Lingyun with a cold expression, causing Mu Lingyun to swallow the next words.
Mu Lingjiu said directly, "Let's talk business. The Immortal Emperor's actions this time are very strange. What do you want to say?"
Mu Lingyun's eyes were cold, "Are you trying to reduce our power? That's too blatant, isn't it? Aren't you afraid that we'll rebel if we don't agree?"
Cui Yuanfeng chuckled, "Of course he's not afraid. What's there to be afraid of, Emperor Ling? No one in this world can fight him alone, right? And even if we put all of us together, we might not be his match."
Mu Lingyun sneered, "Isn't Mingkong afraid of us using sneaky tactics? Doesn't Chen Lin know how to use array patterns? If he uses array patterns and strange poisons, who can be his opponent?"
Mu Lingyun remembered that Mu Lingjiu was killed by them in this way.
"We can't even get close to the Immortal Picking Saint, let alone poison him." Cui Yuanfeng shook his head. "Your method won't work. Besides, we don't know what his intentions are. Maybe things aren't as bad as we think."
Mu Lingjiu was also worried at this moment. She didn't know the purpose of her master's behavior.
The previous Immortal Saints all appeared to be indifferent, but the more such people were, the more difficult it was to see their purpose clearly.
Now the Immortal-Picking Saint is also the Spiritual Emperor. Logically speaking, as long as he manages well, he will become the master of the Nine Provinces.
but……
Mu Lingjiu suddenly remembered the previous conversation with Lu Zhibai.
It seems that the master can only live for a hundred years, and this body can only be used for a hundred years.
A hundred years later, the master will change his body again.
What he wants most is probably to extend his life.
However, in Master's situation, it is extremely difficult to extend his lifespan, unless he cuts off his cultivation, just like Dragon Ancestor cut himself off to a Half-Step Spiritual Emperor. In this way, he can maintain a longer lifespan and keep most of his cultivation.
I just don’t know if Master would agree.
No, he definitely wouldn't agree, otherwise he wouldn't have worn down his original body and tried to take over Mingkong's body.
Mu Lingjiu frowned and said to everyone, "I will go see him today. If I don't come back tonight, you will teleport away tomorrow and don't see him again."
