C399 Palace of Precious Beasts
C399 Palace of Precious Beasts
He emanated the mighty pressure of a sect elder, causing the entire area to be filled with silence.
Although Li Haitao was not some powerful elder, and was one of the lowest ranked among the elders, his strength had also reached the level of transposition peak, which was more than enough to intimidate the inner disciples.
Noticing how quiet the crowd was, Li Haitao's face suddenly filled with a look of satisfaction.
Following which, he took out a namelist and began to read:
"Wan Zhan Feng, head to the Internal Affairs Hall and take care of internal affairs!"
"Zhen Qiu Dong, go to the Foreign Affairs Hall and handle the Foreign Affairs Hall!"
"Xiaoyun, head to the Disciplinary Hall and take care of some chores!"
"…"
Before long, Elder Li Haitao had announced the distribution of everyone's duties.
When some of the beauties were received by others, the disciples below all revealed looks of envy.
When some bitter and tiring tasks were placed on a certain person, many people revealed expressions of sympathy.
Finally, when it was about to end, Elder Li read out Chen Yu's and Zhao Yijian's names:
"Zhao Yijian is in charge of fertilizer and irrigation of the farmlands!"
"Chen Yu is in charge of keeping the strange beasts in the sect!"
Hearing up to this point, Chen Yu and Zhao Yijian's faces also revealed an expression that was as if they had long since expected.
Finally, the first round of revenge from Kong Lieyu began!
"Alright, the distribution of missions ends here. The names of the people I've mentioned must be reported to the area in charge tomorrow morning. If anyone violates this order, they will be severely punished!"
Finishing his words, Elder Li Haitao kept the namelist in his hand and turned to leave.
Only when Elder Li's figure completely disappeared did the group of youths begin to discuss among themselves.
Some people were glad that they had been assigned a good job, while others complained that their luck was bad and that they had been assigned a bad job.
On the other hand, Chen Yu and Zhao Yijian went to the side and quietly conversed with each other.
"Senior Brother, I feel that Elder Kong Lieyu must have secretly messed with the mission assignment this time, assigning us the worst job."
"Yes, I think so too." Zhao Yijian heard and nodded.
"Senior Brother, if you encounter any trouble over at the farmlands, remember to tell me. I will definitely come and help you." Chen Yu instructed.
"Relax, I will be careful, but as for you, Junior Brother, you have to be careful too. I think that Kong Lieyu will definitely target you!" Zhao Yijian said worriedly.
"It's fine, Senior Brother. I will handle this as I wish. You don't have to worry about me." Chen Yu laughed.
After talking for a while, the two separated and went back to their own rooms.
At this moment, within the Clear Sky Sect, Xiahou Wudi had arrived at a mountain peak that was three thousand meters tall.
When he arrived, he was shocked by the beautiful scenery.
He saw that the mountain was covered with pine trees and a waterfall of spring water.
A huge palace stood tall on the peak of the mountain.
It was rare to see strange beasts running around the palace.
When Xiahou Wudi arrived at the entrance of the palace, he raised his head and looked — —
"The Treasure Beast Palace!" These words were engraved on the signboard at the entrance.
This was an important mountain peak of the Clear Sky Sect.
There were countless precious beasts raised here.
All of these precious beasts were priceless and incomparably precious.
Inside the palace, the disciples responsible for raising these strange beasts were very careful and cautious in their feeding. They were afraid that the higher-ups would blame them if anything went wrong.
Arriving at the door, after handing over a name scroll to the doorman, Xiahou Wudi waited patiently in front of the door.
Not long after, a tall figure walked out from the door.
When he saw Xiahou Wudi, his originally serious face revealed a brilliant smile.
"Brother Xiahou, how come you're free to come to my remote place?!"
Seeing the figure that walked out from the door, Xiahou Wudi also revealed a smile on his face.
He raised his right hand, and a huge wine jar appeared in front of him.
"Long time no see, I'd like to have a drink with Brother Wang and have a chat with him. I wonder if Brother Wang would welcome me?"
"Why do you say that? Brother Xiahou is always welcome here!" With that, the youth named Wang waved his hand and said, "Brother Xiahou, please enter!"
It turned out that this tall youth's name was Wang Ping. He was one of the stewards of the Treasure Beast Palace.
This person was in charge of all the chores in the Treasure Beast Palace. He had two to three thousand inner disciples under his command, so he had a lot of power!
He and Xiahou Wudi had known each other two years ago, and at that time, Wang Ping was merely an ordinary disciple of the Clear Sky Sect.
By a stroke of luck, he had obtained the opportunity to compete for the position of steward of the Treasure Beast Palace.
Originally, it was impossible for Wang Ping to turn from a normal disciple into a steward. Because the Clear Sky Sect's rules were strict, the rewards and punishments were generous and complicated. Even if he had the ability, it would be impossible for him to climb to such a high position.
However, with Xiahou Wudi's help, Wang Ping was directly promoted to a steward of the Treasure Beast Palace. This caused the two of them to have a very close relationship.
Under Xiahou Wudi's instructions, the two of them went straight to Wang Ping's room.
This was a very quiet place.
No one was allowed to approach without Wang Ping's permission.
After three rounds of drinking, Xiahou Wudi revealed his purpose for coming to Wang Ping's place.
"Oh, do you want me to help you teach an inner court disciple a lesson?!"
"Don't worry, leave this matter to me. I will definitely not let him off scot-free!"
Isn't it just Chen Yu? I will remember this name! "
"Hehe, a new inner disciple, how could he be able to do anything under me? Brother Xiahou, wait for my good news! "
In the room, Wang Ping promised Xiahou Wudi with all his heart, that he would definitely teach Chen Yu a lesson tomorrow!
Early the next morning, Chen Yu went to the "Treasure Beast Palace".
At this moment, the square in front of the Treasure Beast Palace was filled with people.
A tall and powerful figure was standing in the center of the plaza.
This person was Wang Ping.
Raising his head and looking at the sky, Wang Ping cleared his throat and said loudly to the crowd:
"All of you, quiet down!"
One must know that Wang Ping was a powerhouse at the peak of the middle stage of the transhabitat. His shout, along with the powerful sound wave energy, instantly intimidated everyone.
Seeing the quiet crowd, Wang Ping's eyelids twitched, and he said in a deep voice: "Today, a new disciple from my Magical Beast Palace came. This person's name is Chen Yu, he is the number one genius in the Green Cloud Trials!"
With that, Wang Ping looked in Chen Yu's direction, and indicated for Chen Yu to take two steps forward.
After Chen Yu heard this, his eyes revealed doubt, as he was unable to guess Wang Ping's intentions.
However, since he had just arrived, he wasn't planning on acting alone, so he followed Wang Ping's instructions and walked out.
