Chapter 1585: Chapter 178: Riding the Swallow for Ten Thousand Miles into Beiming

Half a day later, the Floating Heavenly Palace sent a child to deliver the Sect Leader’s Dharma Decree to the Zhao You Heavenly Pond.

Zhang Yan received the Dharma Decree with a calm heart. With this item in hand, he could gather the sect members and launch an assault into the Beiming Continent.

Pacing a few steps in the cave mansion, he said to Jing You, "Go and summon Zuo Cheng."

Jing You bowed and accepted the order, then left to carry it out.

At that moment, there was a flash in the Little Pot Mirror, and the Mirror Spirit suddenly emerged, offering his hands in respect, "Master, True Masters Han and Cai, along with Elder Peng, are outside the cave seeking an audience."

Zhang Yan knew these three must have heard the news firsthand. After a brief thought, he said, "Please invite the three to the Main Hall, and I will meet them shortly."

Not long after, Han Zuocheng arrived in the cave. After paying his respects, he said, "Master called me, disciple comes with any instructions?"

Zhang Yan said, "Within decades, the Demon Cave will emerge, and at that time, our Mingcang Sect will be occupied elsewhere. Currently, the Beiming Demon Tribe is stirring, with many demons invading East Splendor. For the sake of securing our rear, I have requested the Sect Leader’s decree to enter the Beiming Continent to root out the demon tribe and intimidate their hearts. However, I need a disciple to first scout the area. Zuocheng, are you willing to go?"

Han Zuocheng had not expected to be called upon this time and was somewhat excited, quickly replying, "Disciple is willing to go, willing to go."

Zhang Yan looked at him and said, "Then you can set off within two days. Report any news to me promptly."

Han Zuocheng thought for a moment, then asked with some embarrassment, "May I take Xi Yue with me?" He hurriedly explained, "Disciple acts not out of personal desire, but Bi Yu Xuan originated from the Nanhua Sect and is skilled in subduing demons..."

Zhang Yan smiled and waved his hand, saying, "I understand. Just remember to be careful when you both go together."

Han Zuocheng repeatedly agreed, bowed in salute, and said, "Master, disciple takes leave now."

Zhang Yan nodded, watching him leave. With the previous bestowed Star Pivot Palace in hand, even if he encountered a Nascent Soul cultivator, this disciple could escape and return.

Moreover, among the Demon Cultivators, except for a few, most were focused on Power Dao, usually poor in Escape Techniques, rendering them helpless against this item.

He flicked his sleeve, opened the Array Gate, stepped inside, and when he reappeared, he was already in the Main Hall.

Han Wangke and the others saw him arrive and quickly got up to salute.

After some pleasantries, each took a seat.

Han Wangke said, "I heard Junior Brother plans to lead a group to attack the Beiming Demons. As I have nothing to do at the mansion, I came to see if I could contribute a little."

The last time he had killed several Demon Sect Elders, earning significant merit. The sect had already allowed him to pass on his cultivation and accept disciples.

However, from what he learned from Shen Baishuang, at least a few decades remained until the Demon Cave appeared. But he and Cai Rongju both had less than a hundred years of life left.

If they were to leave, their disciples might have no one to look after them. The matter of reincarnation and enlightenment was uncertain, so they wished to establish good relations with the Zhao You Heavenly Pond lineage to ensure their disciples could receive some assistance, facilitating future endeavors.

As for Peng Yuzhou, he was bound by the Sect Leader’s command. If Zhang Yan encountered issues, a single talisman would summon him. Rather than being beckoned and fetching without dignity, it was better to come early and avoid feeling stifled.

Zhang Yan smiled and said, "Both Senior Brothers and Elder Peng are individuals with deep cultivation. This time, as we assault the Beiming Continent, we must rely on the three of you."

Han Wangke felt relieved and added, "There is another matter I need to discuss with Junior Brother Zhang. Brother Cai and I have another junior brother named Ge Tongshan. However, when Junior Master Shen brought us back last time, he had gone to South Cliff Continent. That is why we didn’t find him. Last year, he found his way back, and upon hearing about the attack on Beiming, he also wished to contribute to the sect. We wonder if Junior Brother could allow it."

Zhang Yan asked, "Does Junior Master Shen know about this?"

Han Wangke quickly said, "If Junior Master Shen does not permit, we dare not discuss this with you. Junior Brother Ge’s cultivation is also not inferior."

Zhang Yan sighed, having heard that in the past, there were many outstanding disciples under the Baiyang Sect. However, during a rivalry with vicious opponents for the sect leadership, many from both sides perished. If they were here today, one can’t imagine what the sect would look like. He then said, "Since it’s Junior Master Shen’s intention, I can approve it. When Senior Brother Ge has time, he can come to the Zhao You Mansion to meet with me."

Han Wangke rejoiced, got up, and solemnly said, "On behalf of Junior Brother Ge, I thank Junior Brother Zhang. Once I return, I will have him personally visit."

Han Zuocheng made some preparations at the mansion and then informed Yan Xiyue of their impending journey to Beiming. After becoming a Daoist couple, Yan Xiyue placed everything under his lead and naturally consented.

However, before leaving, he suddenly remembered something, patting his head, "I almost forgot, Junior Brother Zhao must be bored guarding the Linqing Temple. The sect wants to sweep the Beiming Demon Tribe, how could we not inform him? I will write him a letter."
