Chapter 2020 - 2021: Eastern Emperor

After listening, the Eastern Emperor was somewhat displeased and said, "What are we doing, we are professionals, okay, when has any task execution not been dangerous and when have we not been outnumbered.

When have any of the tasks been experienced, when has any task not been entirely trusted."

The Eastern Emperor's words silenced the two men.

The Eastern Emperor said, "I also know this task is not easy, I have never failed in so many task executions, and I don't want this task to fail either."

Everyone kept their heads down without saying a word.

The Eastern Emperor said, "Before we set off, a senior will arrive, he is of the Pursue Heart State, and has been to the Foreign Land Space. With him here to lead us, we will definitely be surprised."

Upon hearing this, everyone was somewhat invigorated.

One person said, "Headquarters surely doesn't know that we have so many experts here, Boss, you should tell Headquarters about our current situation, at least let Headquarters know our current pressure."

The Eastern Emperor nodded and said, "Don't worry, I will do it."

Ling Zhenfei said, "Boss of the Eastern Emperor, I want to know if we have any specific plans?"

The Eastern Emperor said, "We basically understand your situation, you staying at Wuliang Mountain was initially a good choice, and following the Three Great Immortal Palaces indeed makes it easy to obtain the Heavenly God Sword.

But unexpected problems arose at Wuliang Mountain, so now it's a question of when the people from Wuliang Mountain will arrive or if they will come at all. So is your side already a failure?"

Ling Zhenfei said, "Of course not, Wuliang Mountain may still make it, and even if they can't, at least the name of Wuliang Mountain is still there, the prestige remains."

The Eastern Emperor said, "Alright then, you just continue on the Wuliang Mountain side. Our mission this time is the Heavenly God Sword, everyone must think of ways well and be fully committed."

Ling Zhenfei said, "Boss of the Eastern Emperor, I am a newcomer to the organization, perhaps I shouldn't say this, but I still have to point it out, perhaps the organization doesn't know what the Heavenly God Sword is. If they did, maybe they wouldn't have made such a choice."

The Eastern Emperor said, "How the higher-ups decide is their own business, it's not something we can control. What we can do is properly execute the task."

Ling Zhenfei can tell that this Eastern Emperor is indeed very capable, with strength at least at The Threshold Realm.

Ling Zhenfei's scalp tingled somewhat because there were too many experts around.

Back when Ling Zhenfei was at the Zhiyi Boundary, he felt there was no one around who was his opponent.

But gradually as his strength increased, he realized there were many experts in this world.

From Zhiyi to Dawen, and then to The Threshold Realm of Dawen Peak, as strength increased, the people Ling Zhenfei met and connected with were different, leading to Ling Zhenfei feeling his current strength is quite ordinary.

The most dominant realms in this world are the Realm of Reaching Wisdom and Pursue Heart State cultivators.

Cultivators in the Pursue Heart State can be considered masters among masters, occasionally some experts reach the Traceless State, but such people generally don't involve themselves in these matters anymore.

So reaching the Pursue Heart State is essentially the pinnacle of this world, and those in the Traceless State are just stones on the mountaintop.

Currently, those who have reached The Threshold Realm, as long as nothing goes wrong in Foreign Land Space, will eventually be in the Pursue Heart State.

However, there aren't that many in the Pursue Heart State, showing just how cruel Foreign Land Space is, and who knows how many experts will fall here.

But if one wants to ascend quickly, going to the Foreign Land is indeed a good method.

With abilities like those of Sun Wei and others, if they don't go to Foreign Land, reaching the Pursue Heart State would be nearly impossible, and if they do, it would take twenty years.

However, the Foreign Land Space is rumored to be filled with treasures, maybe there could be a miraculous encounter there allowing them to break through Dawen to The Threshold Realm and then ascend directly to Pursue Heart State.

The Eastern Emperor said, "Let's leave it at that. Today I gathered everyone together to first have everyone get acquainted. By then, make sure not to end up fighting amongst ourselves, that'd be such a joke."

Everyone met and remembered each other's faces.

Although the organization has many codes, when things really get physical, knowing people face to face helps avoid mistakes.

After that, the Eastern Emperor told everyone to head back.

Their organization members are quite scattered, usually grouped in twos or threes.

These people operate in secret, so they won't act overtly.

Ling Zhenfei also returned to the area near Wuliang Mountain, and just as Ling Zhenfei settled down, Murong Liuqing opened her eyes and asked, "Where did you just go?"

Ling Zhenfei laughed and said, "My stomach hurt, uncomfortable, so I handled it, why, are you interested in this too?"

Murong Liuqing said, "You're talking nonsense, as a Dawen Realm cultivator, you surely can control such small matters, I don't believe you."

Ling Zhenfei laughed and said, "Then what do you think I did?"

Murong Liuqing said, "Did you go to find that girl from the South Sea Divine Palace?"

Ling Zhenfei was startled, not knowing why Murong Liuqing would think this.

Ling Zhenfei said, "Why would I go seek a girl from the South Sea Divine Palace?"

Murong Liuqing said, "Our Wuliang Mountain has lost its position, lacking enough competitiveness to obtain the Heavenly God Sword, so you going to a powerful sect wouldn't it suit your interest?"

Ling Zhenfei laughed upon hearing this and said, "Then wouldn't I go find Tianling Spirit Palace, isn't Tianling Spirit Palace more powerful now?"

Murong Liuqing said, "The South Sea Divine Palace is very powerful, being one of the Three Great Sacred Lands, its individual strength can rival Tianling Spirit Palace, and you are familiar with that girl named Si Si.

I may not know much, but I know Si Si, she is very strategic and skillful. If she favors you, she will surely find ways to have you join."

Ling Zhenfei said, "Just because of this, you're sure I'm going to join the South Sea Divine Palace?"

Murong Liuqing said, "There's also a very important reason, the majority of South Sea Divine Palace members are women, so for someone like you, it's just right up your alley."

Ling Zhenfei was stunned by Murong Liuqing's words, "What do you mean by this, are you calling me lecherous?"

Just as Ling Zhenfei finished speaking, before Murong Liuqing could react, Sun Wei on the side laughed and said, "I can't hold it anymore, you're killing me with laughter."

Ling Zhenfei asked Sun Wei, "What's so funny about this."

Sun Wei said, "How is this not funny? It turns out you're seen as a lecherous person in Miss Murong's eyes."

After speaking, Sun Wei chuckled, and at this time Murong Liuqing said, "You laugh at others, yet you're the same, all you men are alike."

Sun Wei's smile disappeared, he said, "You're really unfairly accusing me, I haven't left your sight, I've been cultivating here."

At this time Zhang Zhenli also said, "I haven't left either, you can't just group us all together."
