Chapter 39 Dispatch List
The enemies came and went just as quickly, leaving only the corpses of evil creatures all over the mountain. They seemed like tools deliberately arranged to create chaos, but now that their purpose had been achieved, they were casually discarded.
The disciples of Tianshu Academy returned to the city on flying swords. Looking at the lanterns that had burned out as dawn approached and the quiet Shengjing, they all felt a sense of trance.
The first day of the new year should be auspicious and peaceful.
They also agreed to visit the Lantern Festival together, but they didn't expect that what was engraved in their minds at this moment was the thick fog and evil spirit outside the city.
And then, the continuous news was even more shocking.
In addition to the disaster that befell the Dan Sect, large numbers of evil species appeared in Zhongzhou, Liangzhou, and Youzhou.
A batch of elixirs purchased by Tianshu Academy for inner courtyard cultivation were robbed, and the spiritual mines under its control have also caused countless casualties.
What is certain is that these evil species are obviously controlled by someone, and somehow they are able to leave the ancient ruins for a long time.
The evil seeds are not scary. What is scary is that if a certain immortal sect is behind it, or several immortal sects are behind it in order to target other immortal sects, then this incident is just the beginning.
This is not new.
Over the years, almost all the disciples who were able to reach the upper fifth realm had encountered assassinations for which no clues could be found.
Natural elixirs have often appeared in Beiyuan in recent years, which have also caused countless deaths and injuries. The war between Wuman and Daxia was caused by this.
There was also a lineage of formation masters from a hundred years ago who developed the Jingxian Formation that could restrain the Linxian Realm. They were about to rise, but in the end they were tragically massacred.
The Dan Sect also experienced its darkest and most shameful era. At that time, almost all of the Dan Sect's disciples were abducted and kept in captivity, making pills day and night.
Lingjian Mountain once had a master who was lured into an ancient relic. His life or death is still unknown. Since then, Lingjian Mountain has had no contact with other immortal sects.
As the saying goes, long-term peace will eventually lead to chaos.
Now, some people really can't stand the loneliness.
The clues they currently have are very scattered, but it is certain that the evil species is related to the ruins.
As a result, Tianshu Academy sent countless disciples to search outward from Shengjing to investigate whether there were any abnormalities in the surrounding ruins.
Although the disciples of the Master's Pavilion did not dare to go deep into the unknown ruins, they could still judge the source of the disaster through the traces of trampled grass and trees.
"According to the investigations conducted by the disciples of the Head Office over the past few days, the relics with problems are located in Qiling Town in Zhongzhou, Yuhe Town in Liangzhou, and Beisha Town in Youzhou."
"The evil species is not scary, but the manipulators behind it include masters of the upper five realms of Rongdao Realm and Yingtian Realm, which means they have a bigger conspiracy."
"Some of the inner court disciples have been dispatched to seal off these three ruins, and the outer court disciples will also be involved."
"This is the list we came up with after discussing it among the three of us."
"Qingyun World has been silent for a long time, and most of the disciples have been hiding in the mountains to practice. Now is the time to need them."
In the Directorate, the three directors who had returned from Wanzhuo Mountain stood with their hands behind their backs and explained the pros and cons of the matter.
Several teachers outside the inner courtyard were all listed among them, looking at the list in their hands.
Very reasonable.
Because the list includes disciples who have relatively weak family backgrounds but good cultivation.
This kind of disciple has a strong ability to survive when sent out, and if he dies, it will not cause criticism from the big family.
The seven great immortal sects that have been peaceful for thousands of years all behave in this way.
Cao Jinsong looked at it carefully, his expression suddenly froze, and he saw a name that shouldn't appear.
"Why is Ji You's name here?"
Upon hearing the voice, Manager Qin turned around and said, "Ji You is gifted, and is a martial artist. His swordsmanship is exquisite and is obvious to all. With him, we will definitely be able to accomplish our mission."
Cao Jinsong frowned and said, "Master Qin, this is not right. Ji You is now rushing to the fifth realm. He needs to stay in Tianshu Academy and practice hard!"
"Do I have to practice in the Heavenly Academy? The inner court disciples are willing to accept orders in times of crisis, so how can the outer court disciples refuse?"
After hearing this, Cao Jinsong said nothing, but his face gradually turned cold.
Although what Manager Qin said was reasonable and well-founded, from his point of view, he still suspected that this was a deliberate targeting.
You know, the six months after the new year are crucial for Chongjing.
Ji You has no elixirs or spirit stones, and his only reliance is the connection with the Heavenly Book.
Now the Office of Administration wants to send him out to explore the ruins. Not to mention the degree of danger, it will definitely delay his progress in cultivation, which is something that everyone understands.
"Brother Cao, even if Ji You stays, do you think he will be able to enter the inner courtyard?"
"Don't forget, Chu He is only one step away from reaching the upper fifth realm. He has the greatest chance. Why do you have to worry so much about a fruitless thing?"
The person who was speaking was sitting on the left side of Cao Jinsong. He had a goatee and was Ding Ang, Chu He's instructor.
Cao Jinsong looked at him and sneered: "Could it be that they have been colluding for a long time?"
"presumptuous!"
Manager Qin slammed the table and stood up, looking at him angrily: "I have reported this list to the inner court, and Master Fei of Wuchen Hall nodded in approval. Do you think Master Fei is secretly colluding with us?"
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
Cao Jinsong frowned after hearing this: "Hasn't Palace Master Fei been in seclusion to strive for the Immortal Realm?"
"The matter of the evil seed caused chaos in the world, greatly damaged the prestige of our Tianshu Academy, and caused Palace Master Fei to be furious. I broke through the barrier ahead of time. Can I still deceive you?"
Fei She, the master of Wuchen Palace, is the palace master of Tianshu Academy who is closest to the fairyland and has the highest status among the five palace masters.
The headmaster has been in seclusion for many years and has not been involved in religious affairs. He is basically the one who makes the decisions on many things.
Before, when Ji You and others were attacked on the street, Manager Qin asked someone to call him in for questioning while he was unconscious, but Palace Master You later told him to get out.
If Palace Master Fei had not spoken up this time, how could he dare to add Ji You to the list.
"The Inner Court quota is extremely important to the Outer Court students. I think everyone here is well aware of this. But compared to this, getting to the bottom of this matter is the most important thing!"
"Also, I think Instructor Cao must face reality clearly."
“Although Ji You has been gaining enlightenment in the Heavenly Academy every day, he has only condensed six rays of profound light so far. Even if he continues to stay, can he still catch up?”
"On the contrary, Ji You's bravery is the best weapon to maintain the prestige of our Tianshuyuan Sect."
"Even if he cannot enter the inner courtyard because of this, will my Tianshu Academy treat him unfairly?"
"This is how it is decided. Go back and inform your disciples to prepare in the next few days."
Cao Jinsong was silent for a long time. Finally, he threw the list in his hand on the table, turned around and left the office.
It had nothing to do with bravery or quotas. Ji You's mistake was that he came from a poor family and had no family background.
Instructor Cao once naively believed that since Ji You had sensed the Heavenly Book, he should be regarded as a treasure in the academy even though he came from a humble family. But he was wrong.
Many people don’t care who will become the so-called inner court disciple, they only care whether this matter will be beneficial to them.
The Chu family is a major family of practitioners in the world, especially after Chu Xian became a disciple of Xuanyuan Immortal Mansion, its prestige has increased.
In addition to being unable to control the Taoist tradition, Youzhou even called the Chu family the eighth largest immortal sect locally.
The seven great immortal sects might be able to look down upon the Chu family, but how could people like them dare not consider the Chu family's face?
Under such circumstances, the choice is clear.
The history of cultivating immortals in Qingyun Tianxia has always been an iron plate for the aristocratic families to win over and unite, and there has never been an exception.
Because exceptions like Ji You all died.
Died in an assassination, died being targeted by the aristocratic family.
