Even Yunzhou is like this.
What about the other eight states?
"It's always easier to talk to someone who understands."
"You don't need to do anything for now."
"I will come to you when I need you."
"Furthermore, the person who injured you with the jade pendant is the third leader of the Azure Dragon Society."
"From now on, unless absolutely necessary, avoid becoming enemies with the Azure Dragon Society!"
"As for my title, just call me the Boss."
He replied calmly, seemingly unfazed by the world's troubles.
Without waiting for a response, he turned and left.
160-Is Ximen Yu in the Shattered Realm? The Choice of a Clay Bodhisattva!
Xiong Ba couldn't help but gasp.
The Azure Dragon Society actually has a Shattered Realm expert?!
Think of this possibility.
Xiong Ba shuddered, his eyes widening in shock.
His face instantly filled with horror.
The desire to regain face was completely extinguished, as if doused with cold water!
"Could it be him?"
The leader in purple asked in a low voice from the side.
Although the unification of the Nine Provinces was not long, Ximen Yu, as the leader of the Azure Dragon Society and also known as the number one expert in the Nine Provinces, was not unfamiliar to them.
In addition, during their previous encounter, Dugu Qiubai had introduced himself.
Therefore, the leader in purple immediately thought of him.
"Ximen Yu?"
"It seems the Azure Dragon Society is indeed not to be trifled with."
After being reminded, Xiong Ba immediately realized what was happening, his tone became serious, and a hint of fear flashed in his eyes.
"What's there to be afraid of!"
"Since we've already incurred their wrath, do you think they'll let us go if we don't retaliate?"
Chapter 84 Cooperation
The leader in purple snorted coldly and retorted without any politeness.
Since we've already offended them to death, unless they abandon their business and go into hiding, the Azure Dragon Society will never let this go easily, given their style!
"what do you mean……"
Xiong Ba was slightly taken aback and looked at him with a puzzled expression.
"Didn't you already hear about it?"
"The three great dynasties might join forces against the Azure Dragon Society. Why don't we add fuel to the fire and take the opportunity to get involved?"
"This is a good opportunity to save face!"
The leader in purple made the suggestion without hesitation.
Cooperation with the three great dynasties?
Upon hearing this, Xiong Ba frowned and remained silent.
Based on the information we have, the three great dynasties are stronger than the World Society. Cooperating with them is like asking a tiger for its skin. If we are not careful, we may even lose ourselves!
Therefore, he did not make a decision immediately, but instead weighed the pros and cons.
After a long silence, he finally spoke with a solemn expression—
"It's not urgent."
"The most important thing right now is to recover from the injury."
"Otherwise, even if we are willing to participate, they may not be willing to join forces with us."
Xiong Ba suddenly thought of something and changed the subject:
"By the way, just who exactly is that big boss?"
How many reclusive masters are still hidden in Yunzhou?
Although he knew that Yunzhou was unfathomable, he still wanted to find out more about it, lest a terrifying being suddenly appear in the future.
What annoyed him even more was that if he knew nothing about these people, wouldn't he look like a fool?
"I don't know exactly how many experts there are."
The leader in purple shook his head, then solemnly reminded:
"But there's one thing you must remember—if you ever encounter a woman in white in the future, stay far away!"
"Otherwise, let alone me, even if the three great dynasties joined forces, they might not be able to save you!"
As he spoke, he glanced at his empty left sleeve out of the corner of his eye, a hint of fear flashing in his eyes.
"Is she the one who cut off your arm?" Xiong Ba keenly sensed and asked directly.
The purple-robed leader's expression changed drastically. After a long silence, he finally nodded slowly.
Xiong Ba was shocked and secretly remembered this matter.
The Great Sui Dynasty, Yuelai Inn.
"Phew—fortunately, the two hall masters of Fengyun betrayed us, and Xiong Ba was entangled by the Sword Saint and the Azure Dragon Society."
"Otherwise, escaping Yunzhou this time will be as difficult as climbing to heaven!"
The clay bodhisattva breathed a sigh of relief, recalling the lax defenses at the Yunzhou border, and couldn't help but feel fortunate.
If the World Society hadn't fallen into chaos due to Feng Yun's betrayal and Xiong Ba's whereabouts hadn't been unknown, he would never have been able to escape so easily.
"It seems I should learn from those three colleagues."
He pondered the fact that Yuan Shoucheng, Donghuang Taiyi, and Lianhuasheng, who were of equal renown to him, were highly respected.
But he himself was like a stray dog, running around everywhere.
......
The clay bodhisattva no longer felt the carefree joy it once did.
The moment the thought crossed his mind, he froze.
He suddenly realized that he seemed to have no choice at all.
Looking at the current situation across the Nine Provinces continent.
The most powerful forces are the Azure Dragon Society and the three great dynasties.
The World Society was slightly inferior.
But he knew all too well how the "destiny" of the overlord would unfold.
In addition, there's Xiong Ba's personality and way of dealing with people.
The clay bodhisattva rejected it almost without hesitation.
Let's look at the three major dynasties.
Their power is indeed immense, and no one dares to challenge them easily.
They had already recruited experts from all sides.
Among them are many who are equally capable.
Even if you shamelessly seek refuge, can you really receive preferential treatment?
Not to mention, what if those three are difficult to get along with and secretly sabotage things?
Once a conflict occurs.
Both emotionally and logically, the other party had served there for many years.
He made countless contributions.
His relationships with officials in the central government were deeply intertwined.
As an outsider with no roots, I was completely isolated.
The result was predictable.
"So, the best option right now is the Azure Dragon Society?"
The clay bodhisattva muttered to itself.
Considering the Green Dragon Society's consistently assertive style of doing things.
He immediately made up his mind—
We must cling to this golden opportunity!
161 - The terrifying power of the Azure Dragon Society, and the inexperienced swordsman Fengyun!
Qinglong Peak, Qinglong Manor.
Baoqin looked calmly at Dugu Qiubai, Li Taibai, and the others.
"The Great Dragon Head has gone out and has not returned."
"If there is anything important, I will report it upon the return of the Great Dragon Head."
Dugu Qiubai and the others were taken aback.
He then nodded and asked, "Do you know when the Great Dragon Head will return?"
"They never explained," Baoqin shook her head.
"Understood."
Dugu Qiubai responded.
Turning to Dugu Jian and the others, he said:
"Since the Grand Dragon Leader is not here, please have the Fifth Dragon Leader guide everyone through the rules and regulations of the Azure Dragon Society."
Their gaze turned to Li Bai.
Compared to others...
This job was practically tailor-made for a chatterbox like Li Bai.
Upon hearing the details of the mission, Li Taibai agreed without hesitation.
Although Dugu Jian was somewhat disappointed that he could not see Ximen Yu immediately, he did not refuse Dugu Qiubai's request.
After all, we'll have to stay here eventually, so we need to familiarize ourselves with the rules.
Fengyun, Duanlang, and the other two remained surprisingly quiet, offering not a single objection.
The reason was simple—he happened to run into Dugu Jian when he reached the summit of Qinglong Peak.
As Xiong Ba's personal disciples and the vanguard of the World Society, they were very familiar with the name of the Sword Saint.
Even if you are proud and arrogant, you still have to behave properly in front of your seniors.
After Dugu Qiubai sent someone to settle Kong Ci, Dugu Jian and his group followed Li Taibai to the mission hall.
Seeing the four people staring in disbelief, Li Taibai grinned and said with great seriousness:
"This is the main hall for the Azure Dragon Society's missions; all members can accept missions here."
"Completion earns you points; to put it bluntly—" he snapped his thumb around, "that's the guild's hard currency."
Seeing the subtle expressions on the four men's faces, Li Taibai quickly added, "Don't compare it to the gold and silver outside!"
