Chapter 152: Gong Qing's Plan! The Four Maniacs

As Gong Qing's words fell, the others from the All-Nature sect did not speak up to refute him.

It was just that, one by one, their expressions were somewhat disapproving.

Although he was called the Acting Sect Leader and could have them act according to his arrangements at certain times, that did not mean they wouldn't kill him.

Gong Qing naturally knew the current situation, but he was serious about what he said.

"Next, the Celestial Master of Longhu Mountain and Lin Xuan of Baiyun Guan will engage in a duel, and those experts on Longhu Mountain will likely leave together."

Gong Qing changed the subject and said.

"Oh?"

Everyone was startled, staring wide-eyed at Gong Qing.

They did not know this piece of news.

But these two fighting?

Everyone present, every last one of them, stared fixedly at Gong Qing with wide eyes.

Everyone had become interested.

"Acting Sect Leader, are you planning to take this opportunity to go up Longhu Mountain again?"

Xia Liuqing said in a deep voice.

"Elder Xia, although the experts will leave, the Company has quite a few people there, and the commotion we made coming down the mountain this time was too great.

If they weren't worried about the impact, the Company would likely have already mobilized on a large scale to capture us."

Gong Qing shook his head.

"I am just informing you all of this matter; as for what to do specifically, I have no arrangements for the time being, you are free to act as you wish.

Whether you want to take the chance to go back up Longhu Mountain to stir up trouble, I will not interfere."

"Where are they dueling?"

The Corpse Demon Tu Junfang suddenly spoke, attracting everyone's gaze.

"I am interested in going to watch the battle; I probably won't have the chance to see such a fight again, it would be a pity not to go."

Once Tu Junfang said this, the others nodded one after another.

That was exactly the logic.

"I don't know that; if you want to go, go find out for yourselves, but bear the consequences on your own."

After Gong Qing finished speaking, he turned his head to look at the crowd, and then his gaze fell upon the Four Maniacs.

"Besides that, there are you four; I have something to entrust to you."

Upon hearing this, the four, including Xia He, nodded.

"If there is nothing else, you may all leave on your own. As for this Spirit-Restraining and General-Ordering, it is not something everyone can learn, and even if you learn it, you cannot use it at will. If you do not agree, then you cannot learn it."

Gong Qing raised his hand to display the Spirit-Restraining and General-Ordering in his hand.

"That works too. Since we've been busy for so long and returned empty-handed, I, this old man, will head out first. If the Acting Sect Leader has matters, contact me separately!"

Xia Liuqing did not delay upon hearing this; he turned and left.

This time, because he was helping Jinfeng investigate the Jiashen Rebellion and the whereabouts of that person, he had spent quite a lot of time and caused so many issues.

It had also been a long time since he had seen Jinfeng.

The others glanced at Gong Qing and the object in his hand a few times, then all turned and left.

"Don't forget, Divine Machine Hundred Refinements!"

Yuan Tao chuckled, and taking his disciple with him, he also turned and left.

A moment later, only Gong Qing and the Four Maniacs remained here.

"I want you to rescue someone!"

Gong Qing looked at the four and then spoke.

"Who?"

The four were all stunned.

"Ding Daoan!"

Gong Qing did not beat around the bush and said it directly.

"What? Did I hear that right? Does the Acting Sect Leader think the four of us are idiots?"

Xia He picked at her ear, looking at Gong Qing in astonishment.

The expressions of the other three were also somewhat unfriendly.

"Ding Daoan is currently being held by the Company. Given his status, he is definitely under heavy guard. How is this any different from entering a dragon's pool or a tiger's den to rescue someone?"

Shen Chong's expression was very unpleasant; looking at his face, it seemed as if he would move to kill Gong Qing in the next second.

"I am asking you to go, so naturally I have confidence. This time, the Celestial Master and Lin Xuan are dueling, and to avoid impact, they will certainly look for a specific place.

However, the country is full of people after all. To find a place where they can let loose, the northwest direction is the best. To avoid affecting ordinary people, the Company will mobilize a large number of personnel to enforce martial law on the perimeter.

But with the strength of these two, the range will surely be vast, and the manpower required for martial law will not be small."

"So what? We won't go raid the Company just because of a word from you."

Lei Yan Pao Gao Ning shook his head directly.

This kind of thing was purely courting death.

Even if they really rescued the person, the four of them would likely become thorns in the Company's side.

Although the reputation of the All-Nature Four Maniacs was very loud.

But if the Company got serious, they understood that they would definitely not have a good end.

Hearing the Four Maniacs' words, Gong Qing nodded and walked a few steps with his hands behind his back.

"I know where the person is; it is a bunker in Jin City, but it is not guarded by a branch office, but directly by the headquarters."

"Although the location is hidden, I still managed to uncover some intelligence, and it is indeed as you said, so this time I will go with you."

"What can you do if you go?"

Xia He still shook her head.

They would certainly not do anything that meant throwing their lives away.

"It's very simple; my title as Acting Sect Leader will be spread there, and as long as you only save people and do not kill anyone this time, I can still take the blame for the matter."

"With just your meager skills, once your identity is exposed, you'll probably be caught very quickly!"

Shen Chong sneered and mocked.

"You don't need to worry about that; once the matter is successful, you can put forward your own requests, and I will do my best to help you fulfill them.

In the capacity of the All-Nature Acting Sect Leader."

"I want that little Daoist from Baiyun Guan!"

Xia He looked at Gong Qing and said abruptly.

The expression on Gong Qing's face, which suggested everything was under control, began to falter.

He looked at Xia He in surprise, hesitated for a moment, and then shook his head.

"That won't do; I can't afford to provoke that person, and neither can you. You have no idea what a Daoist who has cultivated an Inner Elixir represents."

"Isn't it just some perfection of nature and life, a Land Immortal?"

Xia He spoke up.

"Your Gugudao will have no effect on him at all. Even if I could lure him to you, it would be nothing more than a matter of him slapping you twice.

By then, we would still lose our lives."

Gong Qing shook his head.

"I thought you were so confident just now that you could do anything."

Xia He crossed her arms over her chest, looking displeased.

"Perhaps you can try it yourself; he should still be on Longhu Mountain right now."

Gong Qing did not comment on Xia He's wishful thinking and directly gave her a suggestion.

"I'll likely be caught if I go back, so why would I go?"

"You don't want to risk any danger, yet you want benefits?"

"Gong Qing, what benefits have I asked for?"

Xia He frowned.

"Even just establishing some connection with that person—I mean a good one—is a tremendous benefit." Gong Qing shook his head slightly, then looked at everyone.

"Frankly speaking, whatever you want to do, you must also consider the basic laws."

Gong Qing was no longer speaking too definitively now.

This woman, Xia He, dared to think too big.

What do you think an Inner Elixir Adept is?

The four of them, including Xia He, exchanged glances.

"I will have Yu Huadu assist in this operation. As long as we are fast enough, the Company won't be able to react in time, and I will take the initiative to come forward and admit to the matter.

Now, give me an answer!"

Gong Qing stared straight at the four of them.

"Fine then, since the Acting Sect Leader has put it this way, we have to give you some face!"

Xia He stretched and said, "But let's be clear: if the situation becomes impossible, I will be the first to leave."
