Chapter 316: Temporary Farewell to Ancient Rampart (A Combined Chapter)
“Fellow disciples, our twelve branches of the Qingfeng Team are departing from the sect’s main force to carry out a mission, and we may encounter insurmountable challenges.”
“In the event that reinforcements from the sect cannot reach us, we must look out for each other.”
Leaving the main hall, the twelve team leaders tacitly slowed their pace, and one of them spoke up.
Liu Yu turned his gaze in the direction of the voice, and a quick profile of the person surfaced in his mind.
Ma Yingjie, one of the most outstanding members of the Ma Family from the Golden Core Family, at the late stage of foundation establishment, is well-connected and has quite a reputation.
It seems the Ma Family is putting significant effort into cultivating this individual, and this time the team consists entirely of family cultivators, making it easy to command and unify without the need for balance tactics.
The Ma Family has two golden core cultivators, surpassing the Yan Family in strength and possessing greater influence within the sect.
“Exactly, as we will be alone in the future, we should watch out for each other.”
Immediately, another cultivator responded, his words very eloquent.
As for what circumstances would arise later, that would only become clear at the time.
“When one side is in trouble, help from all sides comes. Why don’t we exchange sound transmission talismans now? It will be much more convenient for important notifications in the future.”
One of the team leaders proposed.
This suggestion was unanimously agreed upon, and the twelve members exchanged sound transmission talismans. Afterwards, those with good relations began to chat.
“Not bad, Senior Brother Qingyang, congratulations on becoming the leader.”
“I didn’t expect you to be so hidden, you really are full of surprises.”
Li Buyu said, her demeanor slightly changed, but her voice remained as cold as ever.
“Where, where, I’m just relying on my excellent spiritual artifact, I’m still far from being comparable to Senior Sister.”
Liu Yu shook his head repeatedly, his attitude very humble.
With the strength he has currently displayed, he can only rank in the lower tier among the twelve leaders, and on the surface, he indeed does not have the qualifications to be proud.
But he still has many trump cards that have not been used. If any cultivators with ulterior motives think this is all his strength, they will surely be in for a big surprise.
He has revealed some, but not completely, as no cultivator will know all his abilities.
Unless, they are dead.
“Qingyang knows his strength is insufficient and may encounter situations that he cannot handle. Therefore, I would like to ask Senior Sister for help!”
Liu Yu said “seriously.”
This statement was half true and half false, but it was also a backup plan.
After all, compared to merely familiar fellow disciples, being a disciple under the same master is naturally closer.
If an unexpected situation arises, the likelihood that this senior sister will be willing to help is undoubtedly the greatest, so giving a heads-up now is being prepared.
“Rest assured, Junior Brother, if it truly comes to that, I definitely won’t stand by and do nothing.”
Li Buyu nodded lightly and said seriously.
She did not appear to be a hypocritical person and seemed to genuinely remember this promise.
“Thank you, Senior Sister. If it really comes to the time when I need your help, Qingyang will definitely repay you greatly!”
Liu Yu took the opportunity to express his gratitude first, regardless of whether it would be needed.
The two chatted a bit more, and a few others came over to discuss matters with Li Buyu. Liu Yu listened in for a while before leaving.
As a direct descendant of the prominent Li Clan in the sect, Li Buyu herself has profound cultivation and great strength, which makes her status among the twelve leaders the highest. Several people expressed a desire to cooperate with her.
