Chapter 232

Before Ximen Wudi could speak.

He raised his hand and slammed hard against his chest.

Immediately after.

He internally pushed the Holy Heart Scripture to its absolute limit.

His entire body vanished instantly from where he stood.

"Don't escape!!"

Seeing this, Ling Donglai and the others roared out in unison.

Unfortunately,

facing Di Shitian, who was determined to flee,

unless Ximen Wudi himself acted,

otherwise,

even if he was bearing a heavy burden,

they could not stop him.

In just an instant,

Di Shitian vanished without a trace.

"Burning Phoenix Blood? Interesting."

He watched silently in the direction of his departure.

A faint smile curved at the corner of Ximen Wudi's lips.

Since he had decided to make him a dog,

how could he possibly let him go so easily?

In other words,

if he truly didn't want him to escape,

not even burning Phoenix Blood would help,

even if he burned himself to ashes, he still couldn't get away.

And the reason he let him go,

above all,

was to let the line stretch and catch a bigger fish.

After all, he was an ancient monster who had survived over three thousand years.

He must have collected no shortage of valuable treasures.

Besides that,

he hadn't forgotten,

the other still had powerful subordinates like Luo Xian and Binghuang.

If he could bring them all under his command,

the Qinglong Society's strength would surely rise another level!

After all, the Nine Provinces are now whole, and the Age of Great Struggle has arrived.

In the future, experts will emerge in endless numbers!

Yet the Qinglong Society's top combat strength is already stretched thin.

So, it was time to begin recruiting powerful individuals.

As a superior,

he didn't want to handle every matter himself in the future.

With this thought,

Ximen Wudi spoke to Ling Donglai and the others who had returned empty-handed.

"Don't pursue him."

"He won't get away!"

"Since you've all arrived now, I'll assign you a task."

A task?

Ling Donglai and the others froze in unison.

Instinctively, they looked up at him.

A flicker of curiosity flashed in their eyes.

"The man just now was a hermit expert from Yunzhou."

"There are many more such experts there."

"So your next task is to recruit them into the Qinglong Society."

Seeing their curiosity,

Ximen Wudi didn't hide anything.

After a brief pause, he spoke slowly.

What?!

There are many more such experts in Yunzhou?!

Instantly,

Ling Donglai and the others were startled.

Their aged faces all showed traces of shock.

"Second Dragon Head, your cultivation is the highest here."

"You are to go to Yunzhou, to a place called Zhonghua Pavilion."

"Find the pavilion master who plays the erhu, invite him to join the Qinglong Society, or bring him to me—either is acceptable!"

"Third Dragon Head, go to a place in Yunzhou called Lu Wushuang City."

"Find the city lord of Lu Wushuang City, have him take you to see the Sword Saint Dugu Jian, and handle the rest as you see fit."

"Fourth, Fifth, and Sixth Dragon Heads, the three of you only need to go to the headquarters of Zhoutianxia Society, and do as I instructed."

"As for the Seventh Dragon Head, go to the seas beyond Yunzhou, find Water God Island, and invite the Water God Ancestor to join the Qinglong Society."

He pondered for two instants.

Ximen Wudi gave a faint order.

Wu Ming is strong; there is no doubt about that.

But Ling Donglai is no weakling either.

And purely in terms of martial cultivation, he may even surpass Wu Ming.

Therefore, sending him to Zhonghua Pavilion is most suitable.

Dugu Jian is a master of the sword Dao.

And he is even purer than Wu Ming.

Such a person.

It would be better to send Dugu Qiubai.

I'm sure the two of them will have plenty to discuss!

As for Senior Xiaoyaozi, Li Taibai, and Zhang Daoling.

To be honest,

Sending them to Zhoutianxia Society is mainly to keep Xiong Ba on guard.

He had not forgotten that Xiong Ba's father was also a reclusive powerhouse.

If they happen to cross paths, at least they can watch each other's backs.

Otherwise,

Simply recruiting Feng Yun, Duan Lang, and the three of them,

would never require all three to go together.

On the contrary, it is Zhang Sanfeng who is the most burdened.

Because even Ximen Wudi does not know where Water God Island is located.

So,

To find it is like searching for a needle in a sea.
