Chapter 326 Joining Tianxin Sect
Different people, with different purposes, traveled eastward in different ways.
Shen Ning and Nu Jiaolong, who were disguised as a merchant caravan, stopped to rest and eat in a simple tea stall on the road. Their meals were similar to those of the caravan next to them, and they looked no different from other merchants.
At this moment, Shen Ning suddenly heard the voices of the people at the table behind her talking.
"This is a perfect opportunity, summoned by the Hall Master. I heard that they are heading towards Liaodong to capture the Left Protector lineage that follows Master Mu."
"They said there's a big reward for any clues, right?"
"That's right. We need a lot of people, so only people like us have the opportunity to show our loyalty and formally join the sect..."
The leader lowered his voice and said, "We murderers and arsonists are doomed to die. If we can successfully join the sect this time, that will be our chance to survive and even turn our lives around and enjoy prosperity. So, brothers, don't be cowardly. Do you hear me?"
"Okay! Not scared!"
"Fuck it, if the court won't let us live, we'll have our own way out. But, Boss, where did you get that Hall Master's Order?"
"Last time, I saved someone from the sect. He gave it to me and told me that if I figured it out, I should take this order to find Hall Master Leng. He said that Hall Master Leng is the most loyal and will definitely accept us."
"Great, let's hurry up..."
"Shhh."
The person behind her suddenly lowered his voice, and Shen Ning could no longer hear what was said. On the opposite side, Nu Jiaolong winked at a young man next to him.
Shen Ning knew that the boy had extraordinary hearing and was always nicknamed "Clairaudience". He could also read lips.
After those people left, Shunfenger sat down next to Chen Ning and Nujiaolong calmly, and lowered his voice to repeat what those people had said before.
"They're going to join the Tianxin Sect. They have some kind of Hall Master's Order as a token of trust. They also said that since they're going to rebel anyway, they'll do it once and for all. They'll ambush us in the woods ahead, kill us and rob us, and then take the goods to join the Tianxin Sect."
Shen Ning curled her lips and smiled: "It's true that someone handed me a pillow when I was sleepy."
Not long after, Shen Ning and his group also set off... Sure enough, an hour later, when they passed by a forest, the people who had been eating in the tea shed came out of the woods.
"This mountain is mine..."
The leader didn't finish his words when a crossbow arrow shot through his chest with a whoosh.
He stared at the bloody hole in his chest with horror and astonishment, and spoke tremblingly: "Who are you? We, we only want money, we..."
Nu Jiaolong stepped forward and kicked the man to the ground: "We are the lineage of the Left Protector you are trying to capture. How about it, are you surprised?"
The people around Nu Jiaolong were all left behind by Mu Yao. They were inconspicuous, but each of them was a skilled fighter. In the blink of an eye, they turned the people on the opposite side who were about to defect to Tianxin Sect after killing and setting fires into merchants who were intercepted and found the hall master's orders on them.
As members of the Tianxin Sect, Nu Jiaolong and the others knew a lot about the Tianxin Sect.
Less than half an hour later, when they left the forest, Chen Ning, Nu Jiaolong and their group became prospective followers preparing to join the Right Protector lineage of the Tianxin Sect.
With the familiar Nu Jiaolong around, Shen Ning didn't need to show her face at all. She disguised herself as an inconspicuous thin young man and stood behind the team, watching Nu Jiaolong and his companions find the Leng Hall Master under the right protector's seat.
Hall Master Leng was a tall, burly, and fierce man. The scar on his face made him look even more ferocious. He glanced coldly at Nu Jiaolong and his group. The next moment, he slapped Nu Jiaolong on the shoulder and said, "Good, you have courage. Even though you all look like chickens, I know how to judge people by their hearts. You are courageous, not cowards!"
Then, Hall Master Leng asked the group to demonstrate their skills.
The first person he ordered was Shen Ning, who looked the thinnest...
Fortunately, Chen Ning has basically been practicing martial arts with Er Yue Qi Yue and the others. She is definitely not a master, but for the lower-level followers, the few moves she demonstrated are already very good.
Hall Master Leng was filled with surprise. "I never thought you, a little chicken, could be so capable. And what about you guys?"
Nu Jiaolong and the people behind him performed according to Shen Ning's previous level, and then Shen Ning saw that the cold hall master in front of him was overjoyed, with an expression as if he had found a treasure.
"Alright, alright, I knew God would be kind to me, Leng. Look, hasn't he sent me such a capable general... From today on, all of you will be members of Lengfeng White Tiger Hall!"
"Let's go, go forward and prepare to gather. Follow me, Leng Feng, and work hard. This time, I will make sure you achieve great things!"
Capable general Shen Ning: ...?
Are you joining Tianxin Sect now?
And he's a capable general? !
The next day, Shen Ning found out why his group had become capable generals so easily: this Leng Hall Master had been plotted against and ambushed by another hall master who was competing with him. Most of his men were killed, and he could no longer form a team.
It happened that he encountered the call from the right protector of the sect. He was anxious to respond to the call, so he issued an order from the hall master to expand the team while he was on the road. Chen Ning and his friends were the third group to join. After three days, they became the "elder confidants" around the hall master Leng.
On the fourth day, Hall Master Leng's team already had nearly a thousand people. It was also at this time that Shen Ning learned that Hall Master Leng was quite famous in the Tianxin Sect.
Firstly, he is very brave and dares to rush forward in everything he does, so he is highly respected.
Secondly, he is very loyal and treats his subordinates very well. He can be said to be a man of great loyalty... Therefore, many people come here to visit him because of his reputation.
When the White Tiger Hall's team grew to 1,500 people, the Tianxin Sect's right protector finally showed up.
In the sparsely populated mountain forest, there were as many as seven or eight thousand people gathered. In addition to Leng Feng's White Tiger Hall, there were also the Azure Dragon Hall, the Cloud Leopard Hall, etc., all of which were halls under the right protector of the Tianxin Sect.
The right protector looked majestic in his purple robe. He stood at the front, gave speeches and encouragement, and then assigned tasks.
All the followers of the Tianxin Sect were arranged to go to Liaodong, and search the cities and checkpoints along the way. If they found any followers of the Zuo Hufa Sect, they must report it.
The lineage of the Left Protector is composed of those who follow the leader Mu Yao. Shen Ning knows clearly that they are probably looking for her!
Mu Yao saved her, and now that she is going to Liaodong, she naturally has to rely on Mu Yao's strength.
But they never imagined that the person they wanted to catch had quietly infiltrated their own team. This is what is meant by "the darkest place under the lamp."
At the front, Leng Feng, the head of the White Tiger Hall, puffed out his chest and raised his head to boast to Shen Ning and the others, "See? That's the Right Protector. The Right Protector thinks highly of me, Leng. You've chosen the right person by following me. From now on, you will have a prosperous and happy life!"
