“Then it's time for us to decide our next steps,” Chu Yang said, gently patting his thigh. “In the battle in the northwest, we have already exposed our identities. It is inevitable that all the major noble families will see us as thorns in their sides, wanting to eliminate us as soon as possible. From now on, our actions will likely be fraught with difficulties… Therefore, everyone must be careful, and we must continue to improve our own strength to deal with unexpected events!”
Mo Tianji and the others nodded heavily, showing their agreement.
“Since we have already exposed our identities, then let’s not stay low-key anymore. Let’s go all out and cause a huge commotion!” Mo Tianji’s words ignited a surge of passion in everyone. However, in reality, he was carefully contemplating his words, speaking one by one with deliberation.
“Exactly; that is precisely my intention,” Chu Yang nodded in approval. “Our next step is to break through from the northwest! Push back to the southeast, and then charge out from the southeast and into the Heavenly Cauldron Grand Assembly! Let’s create a huge ruckus! The nine calamity legend has been around for a long time, and in our generation, we must write a new chapter for this legend.”
“Good!” Dong Wushang and Gu Duxing were the first to respond, followed by Rui Butong and Rocky Luo, who raised their hands and feet in agreement.
“Hey, hey, wait a minute!” A discordant note suddenly appeared.
Who has the audacity to pour cold water on everyone at this moment?
Everyone turned to look in the direction of the voice, and it was the overly handsome Young Master Wei with a discontented expression!
Throne of Wei!
“What unique insights do you have, Lord Wei?” Chu Yang knew very well why Young Master Wei was looking for him, but he pretended to be oblivious. It was just like that; if one were to rush in, they would not feel comfortable or get a better deal.
“Ahem, I’m not trying to dampen everyone’s spirits. I just believe that improving our strength is the most urgent issue at hand. After all, with deeper strength, we would have more capital, wouldn’t we?”
Young Master Wei coughed lightly and said calmly, “And I happen to know exactly where we can significantly enhance everyone’s strength… Uh, I can guarantee that as long as we get there, everyone’s cultivation level can double overnight, or even more!”
Young Master Wei had indeed put in a lot of effort. For the sake of the clan's great cause, he was willing to make bold claims, saying anything to boost morale.
However, his statement was completely reasonable in light of the Nine Calamity Sword’s actual situation. There was a great possibility that it could happen. But the problem was that Young Master Wei had no idea where the eighth segment of the Nine Calamity Sword was, so his claims were nothing but empty bravado!
Upon hearing that their strength could double overnight, Rui Butong and the others’ eyes lit up, eager to try.
“Where? Where is this miraculous place? Hahaha… doubling, I can’t wait; it seems I can’t go...” Tan Tan interjected.
“Exactly, you should tell us where this place is!” Rocky Luo urged.
“Is this true? I feel like you’re just bragging…” Rui Butong expressed his skepticism.
“This guy is never reliable; listening to him is just looking for trouble… I don’t believe it!” Dong Wushang declared.
“Hehe…” Gu Duxing sneered. Not only did he not believe it, but he also directly ignored him.
“Do you really know such a place?” Mo Tianji indicated doubt; of course, his skepticism referred to the location of the eighth segment of the Nine Calamity Sword. Only there could the brothers’ strength truly double; otherwise, there might not be any similar shortcuts.
Mo Tianji didn’t believe that Young Master Wei could know the location of the eighth segment of the Nine Calamity Sword, a place even the Great Sword Master Chu could not find.
“I think having enough strength is sufficient. The current priority is cultivating experience and tempering one’s mindset. Without enough mental fortitude, having too much strength could be detrimental!” Chu Yang snorted disdainfully; it seemed that he wouldn’t be led by the nose by this guy! Can’t you tell the difference between the master and the servant?
