Chapter 210: Giving A Dao Weapon, He Mingye’s Emotions
‘Moon Gazing Sect?’
After hearing where he was stationed, Xu Ning was obviously surprised.
Although the Moon Gazing Sect was not comparable to the Yuelan Sect and the Thousand Flood Sect in State Jifeng, it was still a first-rate sect.
There must be a half-step dao realm master in the Moon Gazing Sect. With a half-step dao realm master, their overall foundation must be quite good, so why did they send him to guard it?
However, although Xu Ning was puzzled, he did not raise any questions. It was not too late to ask after the distribution was over.
Afterwards, Qiu Renshan settled the others’ arrangements.
Like Xu Ning, He Mingye was also sent to other sects.
However, the sect He Mingye was assigned to was a relatively weak one.
“Everyone, everything has been properly arranged.”
Qiu Renshan said, “If there are no questions, then all the personnels that are being sent out will leave within three days. And the people stationed at the sect must immediately begin to mobilize their disciples to inform them of the overall situation and make preparations.”
Afterwards, Sect Master Mi Xingye also said something to encourage and thank them.
No one objected to Qiu Renshan’s arrangement.
After the meeting ended, everyone left with a lot on their minds.
“Mingye, Xu Ning, you two stay behind.”
After everyone dispersed, Qiu Renshan stopped He Mingye and Xu Ning.
In the assembly hall, besides him, Mi Xingye, Du Yuan, and Duan Qinghui were also present.
“Master, elders.”
He Mingye and Xu Ning stayed behind.
Among these people, Duan Qinghui was the most unfamiliar to Xu Ning.
“You should have also noticed that the people gathered today are all martial artists above the common seal realm.”
Qiu Renshan said, “These people are the core strength of the Yuelan Sect.”
“Although the two of you are disciples, your true strength has already surpassed many of the people present just now.”
Du Yuan smiled and said, “Originally, I wanted to let you stay in the sect, as it is safer. But your master, Sect Master Mi, decided to let you go outside and play the greatest role.”
“You two don’t have any objections, right?”
Mi Xingye looked at the two disciples with a satisfied look in his eyes.
There were only two disciples above the common seal realm in the Yuelan Sect, and they were Xu Ning and He Mingye.
Moreover, not only were they in the true domain realm and the half-step dao realm, but they were also his disciples. This made Mi Xingye very proud.
Although Mi Xingye was a little worried about sending the two out, after thinking about it, he still made this decision.
Firstly, they were strong enough. If they forced the two of them to stay by their side, the masses would be dissatisfied. Not only would they question the Sect Master’s selfishness, but they would also lose their reputation.
Secondly, Mi Xingye deliberately wanted the two of them to make a name for themselves in the upcoming tribulation.
Only in this way, when the sect was handed over to the two of them in the future, would they be able to gather people’s hearts more easily.
Of course, this idea was mainly beneficial to He Mingye, because he would definitely inherit the position of sect master in the future.
As for Xu Ning, in Mi Xingye’s opinion, there was a high probability that he would not be appointed as an elder. With his qualifications, it was more likely that he would break through to the dao realm in a few years and go to State Wansheng.
“Of course not.”
He Mingye and Xu Ning quickly said.
Although they didn’t really understand Mi Xingye’s thoughts, the two knew that he must have thought deeply about them.
“However, I have a question.”
Xu Ning asked, “The Moon Gazing Sect is a large sect, but why do I have to guard it?”
“Something happened to the Moon Gazing Sect recently.”
Mi Xingye took the initiative to explain to Xu Ning, “The two half-step dao realm masters in their sect were seriously injured recently, thus no one could currently oversee the sect and stabilize their hearts. Thus, they had no choice but to ask us for help.”
“The Moon Gazing Sect knows very well that if there are no strong martial artists holding the fort, with the size of their sect, they will definitely be targeted by the people of State Wansheng and be turned into puppets. If they are turned into puppets, then it will have a huge negative impact on State Jifeng.”
Xu Ning nodded deeply.
Xu Ning did not feel too pressured about this mission.
Unless a dao realm master from State Wansheng personally put pressure on him, it was not difficult to preserve his life with his own strength.
“Oh yeah.”
Mi Xingye said, “You are not the only one sent to guard the Moon Gazing Sect. There is another person being sent there, and she should be your old friend.”
“My old friend?”
Xu Ning raised his eyebrows. He didn’t seem to have any old friends in State Jifeng.
“Thousand Flood Sect’s true disciple, Si Ying.”
Mi Xingye said, “Si Ying has a special status in the Thousand Flood Sect. It is good for both of us to maintain a good relationship.”
“Si Ying?”
Xu Ning nodded.
In fact, the two of them had only met once, but he had saved her life.
However, the news of Feng Changge’s death was spread by Si Ying, so the outside world, including Mi Xingye, thought that Xu Ning and Si Ying had a deep relationship.
“We will support each other.”
Xu Ning responded.
“The situation is delicate right now. No one knows what will happen next. You two are outstanding disciples of our sect. When protecting others, it is more important to protect yourselves.”
This time, it was Duan Qinghui who spoke.
When He Mingye and Xu Ning heard this, they were stunned at first, then they said, “Yes, Elder Duan.”
Xu Ning also learned over the past few days that Duan Qinghui was a strong supporter of Gu Juan.
Thus, this reminder was rather unexpected.
“Okay, go back and prepare. Remember to come to the Sect Master Peak when you are ready to leave the sect.”
Mi Xingye waved his hand.
“I will take my leave.”
Xu Ning and He Mingye left the assembly hall at the same time.
“Junior Brother, be careful outside.”
He Mingye said earnestly like an older generation nagging at a younger generation.
Although Xu Ning was stronger than him, He Mingye still spoke with concern.
“Same for Senior Brother.”
Xu Ning thought for a moment before pulling He Mingye into a corner.
“Senior Brother, I have something to give you.”
Xu Ning said to He Mingye.
“What is it?”
He Mingye was a little confused.
A red sword appeared in Xu Ning’s hand as he moved his consciousness.
This fire attribute dao weapon was one of the three dao weapons Xu Ning had obtained from Shi Fengxu in the Demon Beast Scroll’s mystic realm.
“This is…”
The moment the longsword was taken out, He Mingye noticed its extraordinariness.
He Mingye wiped the surface of the dao weapon with his finger, and his expression changed instantly.
“This is a dao weapon, a fire attribute dao weapon!”
He Mingye immediately guessed.
“That’s right.”
Xu Ning nodded. “Senior Brother, please accept this fire attribute dao weapon.”
Xu Ning had already thought about giving He Mingye a dao weapon.
There were a total of seven dao weapons in Xu Ning’s hands, and this was not including the dao weapon shortsword he gave to Chu Yeyang.
Three of these seven items were obtained from Shi Fengxu’s inheritance. In addition, there were also the all attribute dao bracer, dao weapon pill furnace, and the two special dao weapons he had just obtained.
When Xu Ning first obtained them, he thought of exchanging two to three dao weapons he did not use for more resources.
It was just that his strength was shallow. If he revealed too many good things, he would be exposed to danger.
Now that his strength had improved, Xu Ning was ready to deal with the dao weapons he had obtained from Shi Fengxu’s inheritance.
One of them would be given to He Mingye, while the other two would be exchanged for more resources.
As for the bracer, pill furnace, and the special copper knife and fan, Xu Ning decided to keep them for himself.
“How can I accept it?”
He Mingye was actually tempted by this fire attribute dao weapon, but he still refused.
“A precious item like a dao weapon is very rare. As a senior brother, how can I accept your gift?”
He Mingye pushed Xu Ning’s hand away. “Moreover, you are also stationed outside, so you will definitely be in danger. This dao weapon is very useful to you.”
“Senior Brother…”
Xu Ning smiled. “Since I gave you a dao weapon, it means that I definitely don’t lack one. In addition to this fire attribute dao weapon, I have other dao weapons.”
“No.”
He Mingye said, “You can use it to exchange for other resources.”
If he had enough resources, He Mingye might ask to trade for this sword with his resources.
But for a young powerhouse like him, there was no such thing as a reserve of resources.
He had long used up all his valuable resources in his cultivation.
Only old seniors like Mi Xingye and Gu Juan could save up a lot of resources over the years.
Xu Ning saw He Mingye’s stubbornness.
He patiently said, “Senior Brother, no matter what, you have to accept this dao weapon.”
“Although you are in the true domain realm, you are still not enough in front of the people from State Wansheng.”
Xu Ning noticed that He Mingye was still stubborn. He paused then said, “In this case, I will lend you this fire attribute dao weapon, okay?”
“Lend it to me?”
He Mingye raised his eyebrows.
“If you refuse again, I’m afraid you really don’t see me as your junior brother. Do you really think of me as an in-name disciple who is not worthy to call you senior brother?”
Xu Ning jokingly said.
“You…”
He Mingye understood Xu Ning’s intentions.
“Okay, I’ll borrow this dao weapon from you.”
He Mingye finally chose to accept Xu Ning’s request. “When the people from State Wansheng leave, I will return it to you.”
“Okay.”
Xu Ning put the fire attribute dao weapon in He Mingye’s hand.
He had already erased the manipulation mark inside, so He Mingye could immediately use it.
After giving each other some show of concern, Xu Ning left the entrance of the assembly hall.
He Mingye looked at the fire attribute dao weapon in his hand and sighed.
Whether it was a gift or a loan, He Mingye could feel Xu Ning’s sincerity by passing him such a precious dao weapon.
‘With this fire attribute dao weapon, I won’t be afraid of a half-step dao realm master.’
He Mingye remembered Xu Ning’s gesture.
