Chapter 51 Handover of tasks
Changes within the sect are extremely important to their outer disciples.
It can even affect their future practice to some extent.
"I'm just hearing this"
"I heard that the spiritual mine stationed on Huangyu Island was attacked by many unknown monks."
"The monks in the spiritual mine have always relied on the large formation in the spiritual mine to hold on."
"I heard later that the Jindan monk personally took action to repel the enemy. I don't know anything else."
After the monk in blue finished speaking, he glanced at Li Qing and the others.
Li Qing didn't say anything, returned to his seat and quietly finished his work.
The man probably didn't lie to them. After all, he was only in the early stages of Qi training and didn't know much about it.
The man's words brought an inexplicable sense of crisis to Li Qing.
Here on Qianyu Island, they actually dared to take the initiative to attack the spiritual mine, and even the Golden Pill monk took action in the end.
From this, it seems that this matter is not as simple as it seems on the surface.
Li Qing is only a monk in the middle stage of Qi training. Once the sect begins to be in turmoil, the lowest level monks like him will be in great danger.
The struggle between sects is not as simple as it seems.
It often meant the death of countless monks.
At that moment, Li Qing made up his mind again. After handling this task, he would first take the duty task in his hands.
After getting the golden scale fruit from the auction, I started practicing hard.
He will never show his face easily until the later stage of Qi training.
You must first improve your own strength to increase your chances of surviving the sect's changes.
The gentle sea breeze stirs the calm sea.
The tree wants to be still but the wind doesn't stop.
In the afternoon, the spirit boat arrived at Huangyu Island Pier.
There is only one pier where the Huangyu Island Spirit Mine Cave is stationed.
Most of them are disciples of the Qianshui Yuling Sect.
A city was built near the Lingkuang Cave.
It is also the place where the disciples of the sect usually hide and trade resources.
Behind the city is the headquarters of the disciples within the sect.
Li Qing led the two of them directly towards the Spirit Mine Cave.
As soon as they approached the Spirit Mine Cave, two figures came out immediately.
"who"
A loud shout came from the mouth of the person who walked out.
The two outer disciples who were in the middle stage of Qi training also looked at the three of them warily.
"My Majesty, Li Qing, handed over the mission as ordered by the sect."
Li Qing raised his hand in salute and replied.
"Songhai Sai"
"In Xiasu Suo"
"The two of us have completed our duty and are hereby returning to the sect."
The two people beside Li Qing also started to answer together.
"Please take out the identity token first"
After the three people finished speaking, the two people who came out still did not relax their vigilance.
After that, the three of them took out their identity tokens and verified them one by one before allowing them to enter.
After entering the area of the Spirit Mine Cave, the three of them separated.
The two of them need to report to another place.
Li Qing continued to move forward and came to where several palaces were located.
This is the place where those responsible for handing over the spiritual minerals are on standby.
After arriving here, I found that there were already four or five disciples from the sect waiting there.
He glanced at the people who had performed the mission together before.
Li Qing didn't know any of them, so he found a place to stand aside.
It seems that the inner disciple Ling Jie who was in charge before has not come out yet.
After half an hour, three or four more people came over.
Here Li Qing saw a familiar figure, Mu Qing, whom he had chatted with for a while before.
Mu Qing was wearing a green Taoist robe that could not hide her beautiful figure, and she slowly walked near the palace.
However, Mu Qing didn't seem to be very interested. She just nodded after seeing Li Qing and several other acquaintances.
I saw a swift escaping light appearing in the distance.
The light dissipated, revealing a young monk who was none other than the previous leader, Ling Jie.
"All the personnel who are going out to collect the spiritual minerals this time have arrived."
"Everyone, come with me."
After Ling Jie finished speaking, he turned around and walked towards a large hall called the Mission Hall.
After Li Qing heard this sentence, he was shocked and followed him silently.
He was in a daze for a moment just now.
There are only seven or eight people at the moment, which is less than half of the people they came before.
Senior Brother Ling Jie meant that everyone was already here.
That means one thing: most of the people who never showed up must have died.
Li Qing made a special observation.
Among the seven or eight people, including him, the last one was in the late stage of Qi training, and none of the remaining outer disciples who were in the late stage of Qi training showed up.
Following Ling Jie's footsteps, the group arrived at the main hall.
"Senior Sister Ziling, all the people who are out on missions have gathered."
Ling Jie said something towards the inside.
A beautiful figure walked out from inside.
Still covered by the veil she had seen before, Zi Ling walked out of the back hall.
Li Qing lowered his head gently like other disciples, not daring to look directly.
"Junior brothers, something happened during this mission."
"Everyone can just hand in the task collection information one by one according to their own situation. If there is anything special, you can tell Ling Jie and he will naturally record it."
"The sect will investigate the matters recorded on the record."
After Zi Ling finished speaking, she glanced at the people below and felt a sense of sadness in her heart.
The losses this time were huge. Not to mention the casualties of the disciples on duty in the Spirit Mine Cave, half of the disciples she brought out alone suffered casualties.
Even Junior Brother Juehen, a genius disciple of the inner sect, suffered a loss here.
Regarding Juehen, Mennei made a decision and died in an enemy attack.
The main reason was that Juehen didn't tell anyone about his itinerary when he left.
It is particularly difficult for the sect to trace now, not to mention that in the face of the current events, Juehen's death does not even seem that conspicuous.
Several Jindan masters in the sect were even seriously injured. Now that the sect was about to undergo huge changes, they had no intention of paying attention to Juehen's affairs at this time.
After Zi Ling finished speaking, she stood up and left.
The handover matters were left to Ling Jie.
"Please, all junior brothers, please come to the back hall one by one to hand over the tasks after hearing my name."
Watching Ling Jie walk to the back hall, Li Qing and the rest of the group continued to wait.
"Junior Brother Qian Jiong"
The only outer disciple in the main hall who was in the late stage of Qi training walked in.
""
"Junior Sister Mu Qing"
Mu Qing heard her name being called and followed her.
Finally, after calling the fifth person inside, Li Qing's name was called.
Li Qing stood up and walked towards the back.
"Senior Brother Lingjie, I am responsible for collecting the warm jade from the Baiyu Island Spirit Mine."
"A total of more than 8,900 kilograms were mined during this trip."
""
After Li Qing finished speaking, he handed over a jade slip, which contained detailed mining information.
"Okay, I've written it down."
After Ling Jie finished speaking, he glanced at Li Qing.
"According to the news from Baiyu Island, Junior Brother Jiao Yujian was said to have died in a sneak attack by men in black."
After Ling Jie finished speaking, he looked at Li Qing with a somewhat sentimental look in his eyes.
