At the Changfeng Domain Transmission Hub, in the banquet hall of the palace of the hub stationmaster Peng Xiangwen, Li Mu and Geng Xian sat in the guest seats. Beautiful fairies with excellent temperaments brought plates of delicious food to the table one after another.
"Hehe, Palace Master, Deputy Palace Master, we are in for a treat today. The Changfeng Domain transmission hub is the main thoroughfare of several large domains. Every time the major transmission channels are opened, there are countless people going up and down here, or transiting here. With such a mix of people, it is inevitable that there will be some unruly people doing some smuggling. Every time this transmission hub seizes a lot of supplies, including some rare animals and birds. Although most of these things have been handed over, Peng Xiangwen, as the stationmaster, will always be able to intercept some. Today, it seems to be true!" Lu Lang stared at the delicious dishes and laughed softly to Li Mu and the others without turning his head.
"You asked us to stay just to satisfy your appetite?" Li Mu frowned.
"Of course... uh... of course not!" Lu Lang wanted to say that of course it was for the food, but seeing Li Mu's increasingly hostile eyes, he quickly changed his words: "Palace Master, this is what I think. You see, although Peng Xiangwen is just a stationmaster who manages the transmission channel, and his cultivation is even less important, what is this transmission hub? It is the throat that controls Changfeng Domain. Both the circulation of goods and personnel requires transmission channels. The most important thing is that when the Qiongzu Universe Youth Exchange Conference opens, this is the first stop for the outstanding young people of the entire Qiongzu Universe to enter Changfeng Domain. Since we have chosen to preach in Changfeng Domain, is there any place more suitable than here?"
Li Mu was slightly stunned when he heard this. It must be said that Lu Lang was really a talented person. If he could establish a Lingxiao Palace base here and hang a large Lingxiao Palace banner at the exit of each transmission channel, those who participated in the youth exchange meeting would have an impression of Lingxiao Palace in their minds as soon as they arrived in Changfeng Domain, which would definitely achieve twice the result with half the effort.
Besides, Changfeng is so big. If you wait until those people have dispersed before promoting one by one, wouldn't it be exhausting? Even if you wait until the youth exchange meeting starts and the crowd gathers, it will definitely not be better than promoting here. After all, by then everyone's attention will be on the youth exchange meeting itself. Who will pay attention to your small advertisements?
The Lingxiao Universe Youth Exchange Conference can be said to be a grand event for the entire Lingxiao Universe. There will definitely be sponsors. By then, advertisements of all sizes will be everywhere. By then, Li Mu's recruitment advertisement will probably have to work hard to achieve its goal.
While Li Mu was thinking, Geng Xian spoke up: "Xiao Lu, I remember when I was still in charge, the six major forces jointly issued a statement that each transmission channel could only hang slogans of Ai Qiong Zu and the six major forces, and strictly prohibited commercial activities. How come? It's only been 6 trillion years, and the world has deteriorated to this extent?"
Lu Lang smiled awkwardly after hearing this: "No, the rules are still the same. Commercial promotion of the transmission channel is still prohibited. However, rules are dead and people are alive. Maybe we can start from other places to make a breakthrough?"
Geng Xian sighed and shook his head helplessly.
Li Mu's expression was not good either. He said to Lu Lang in a cold voice, "Then I'll leave this matter to you. If you can't break through, I'll hold you accountable!"
Upon hearing this, Lu Lang's face turned pale and he cursed himself inwardly for suggesting that Li Mu and the others stay just for the sake of satisfying his appetite. That would have been fine, but then he lied and said something about advertising at the transmission hub in order to shirk the blame!
In this regard, Lu Lang could only look at Li Mu with a bitter face, hesitant to speak.
"This palace master has always been clear about rewards and punishments. If you don't do this matter well, you will be punished! If you do it well, you will be rewarded greatly!" Li Mu said lightly.
"Palace Master, may I ask you a question, what exactly is this great reward?" Lu Lang asked cautiously.
Li Mu glanced at Lu Lang calmly, and then said: "Since you gave your wife the opportunity to upgrade the second-level branch of the Dao last time, allowing your wife to upgrade from the fifth level of the Dao to the third level, then this time, I will give you another chance to upgrade the second-level branch of the Dao! Even if the recruitment is successful enough this time, I will directly give you a first-level branch of the Dao, what's the harm?"
Li Mu now has plenty of second-level branches, and there are also many first-level branches. If you want the horse to run, how can you not let the horse eat grass? Li Mu is even more generous when it comes to drawing big cakes.
When Lu Lang heard about the first-level branch of the Dao, his eyes lit up immediately. His previous worry was swept away. He patted his chest and said, "Palace Master, don't worry. I will leave this matter to me. I will definitely do it beautifully!"
Li Mu nodded slightly, but did not take Lu Lang's guarantee to heart. It is good for the people below to have confidence, but it is not a good thing if they are overconfident. After all, arrogant soldiers will be defeated!
At this time, Li Mu was already thinking about how to punish Lu Lang. The Lingxiao Palace was really short of manpower now, and it was like an ant compared to the six major forces. Although Lu Lang was sometimes not very reliable, he was at least an Eternal Immortal Ancestor, and was the backbone of the Lingxiao Palace. Even if there was a war with the six major forces, he was still a high-level cannon fodder. Moreover, with the blessing of Jianmu, he was the kind of high-level cannon fodder that could die and be resurrected, and he was absolutely loyal to Li Mu. Li Mu still couldn't bear to destroy such a talent directly, but today's words were here. If he didn't punish Lu Lang properly, where would his dignity be?
Just when Li Mu was in a dilemma, Lu Lang spoke again cautiously: "Palace Master, I have another request."
Li Mu was a little impatient when he heard this: "If you have to fart, do it now!"
Lu Lang coughed awkwardly, then said: "That's right, Palace Master. You know, I have a wife at home. I hope..."
Li Mu interrupted him directly: "No problem, I promise, if you can handle this matter well, I will give you two first-level branch certification quotas!"
In Li Mu's opinion, Lu Lang would definitely not be able to accomplish this task. He just made a promise to him without any effort. Now he behaved generously. What could Lu Lang say when he punished him?
"Thank you, Palace Master. Woohoo~ Palace Master, you are so kind. It is my honor to recognize you as my master!" Lu Lang was grateful with tears and snot. He originally wanted to say that he didn't want to achieve enlightenment through the first-level branch, but only wanted to achieve enlightenment through the second-level branch with his wife. Who knew that Li Mu would be so generous and directly promised to give him two places for the first-level branch. What a boldness! What a surprise for him!
"Brother Lu, what's wrong with you? Why are you still crying?" Peng Xiangwen just came in from the door of the banquet hall and saw this scene. He couldn't help but be stunned.
