Hunyuan Immortal Sect

Chapter 298 It makes sense
Even a proclamation has been issued. It seems that this is a fight to the death with Yun Xuanzong! Although it is unexpected, it makes sense when you think about it carefully.

The Beast Taming Sect has been tolerating Yun Xuanzong for more than a day or two, not to mention that Yun Xuanzong has launched such a large-scale attack on the Beast Taming Sect this time.

As the leading sect in Xijiang County, it is impossible for it not to fight back. Now that it has decided to take action, it must use all its strength to eliminate it.

Song Xian just didn't expect that the situation would develop so quickly.

"Master, the Beastmaster Sect's manifesto has made it very clear. All sects and forces in Xijiang County are being recruited to join the war. I think Jiang Feng will soon send people to recruit members of our sect. The most urgent task is to make preparations in this regard." Huang Ye spoke when he saw that he was silent.

Song Xian nodded. Although the Yunxuan Sect was not as powerful as the Beast Taming Sect, it was a newly established sect with a protection period of three hundred years.

Qi Yunxuan, the head of the Yunxuan Sect, is from the Qianqing Sect. Even if the Beastmaster Sect is determined to fight him to the death, they dare not directly attack his mountain gate, so this is destined to be a protracted battle.

Judging from the content of the manifesto issued by the Beast Taming Sect, it is obvious that they are irreconcilable with Yun Xuanzong. However, if they want to kill Yun Xuanzong, they can only encroach on him step by step, besiege Yun Xuanzong at the mountain gate, and force them into a desperate situation, which requires a large number of troops.

"Someone is coming."

Hearing Song Xian's call, a disciple who was waiting for instructions from outside strode in and asked, "Master, what are your instructions?"

"Notify the heads of all departments to gather in the meeting hall immediately."

"Yes." The disciple responded and left.

…………

Inside the majestic and spacious meeting hall, the heads of various departments were already waiting inside, talking quietly to each other, no one knew what had happened.

Until Song Xian came in from outside, the noise in the hall suddenly became quiet.

He glanced at the crowd and found that everyone was present except Zhong Wenyuan who was injured and bedridden.

"Master, I wonder what you want us to do?" Zhang Ningyuan asked.

"The Beast Taming Sect has already issued a manifesto, and will soon be recruiting our sect to go to Xijiang County to participate in the war. I summoned you here today to discuss this matter." General Song Xian waved his hand, and the manifesto floated in front of Lin Zixiang who was sitting below.

Everyone passed it around one by one, and all looked surprised. It was obvious that the speed at which events developed was beyond their imagination.

"I intend to allocate personnel from the Tianshan Camp, Hunyuan Sect, and the Guard Camp to form a conscription team. We don't know the exact number of personnel needed yet, so the camp leaders will select personnel according to the proportion."

"Brother Linquan, Brother Dolph, you two are the leaders of the Tianshan Camp and the Guard Camp. Set an example and accompany the conscription team to Xijiang County."

"Senior Brother Wenyuan is also the head of Hunyuan Sect, but he is currently ill and bedridden. Senior Brother Zhang Yi, you will serve as the deputy head and replace Senior Brother Wenyuan."

"Brother Zixiang, you are the sect elder. I have appointed you as the team leader and responsible for all matters. We will also go to Xijiang County together."

When Lin Zixiang heard this, he opened his mouth to refuse. He was now fully focused on building his foundation and was unwilling to lead the team to Xijiang County, but Song Xian did not give him a chance and continued.

"All participants heading to Xijiang County will be rewarded with 100 spirit stones each, and their salaries will be tripled. Any injured monks will also receive this salary while recovering. If they unfortunately die in battle, their relatives will receive a 1,000 spirit stone pension. Furthermore, for each enemy monk killed on the battlefield, a reward of 100 spirit stones will be awarded. All merits will be filed in the archives."

"If there are any sects willing to participate in the recruitment, they can sign up."

"Logistics support will be handled by the Finance Department. The talismans and magical instruments for the participating disciples will be distributed uniformly by the sect..."

Song Xian instructed each matter one by one in a tone that left no room for questioning. As he was speaking, a disciple hurried into the hall and bowed to him. "Master, there's a disciple of the Beastmaster Sect outside the mountain gate claiming to be Gu Xing. He's here on the orders of Senior Jiang Feng and demands to see the Master immediately."

Song Xian had anticipated this and nodded: "Bring him here."

"Yes." The disciple responded and left.

Soon, a Beastmaster Sect disciple was led into the hall. "Greetings, Senior Song. On orders from Uncle Jiang, I ask you to return to our headquarters immediately. We have an important matter to discuss." The man saluted and handed him a jade slip.

After Song Xian took it, he used his spiritual sense to explore inside.

"I understand. I'll go right away. Come, take Fellow Daoist Gu down to rest."

After the Beast Taming Sect disciple was asked to leave, Song Xian continued to discuss a series of matters related to conscription to the war. They discussed for more than an hour before concluding the meeting.

"Brother Zixiang, please wait a moment." When everyone stood up to leave, Song Xian spoke to stop Lin Zixiang.

"Master, do you have any further instructions?"

For some reason, over the years, there seemed to be a layer of gauze between the two of them. It was hard to explain but they could definitely feel the gap, especially after Song Xian transferred him to Shitouling Casino, the gap became more and more obvious.

Both of them knew this, but this delicate and sensitive relationship could not be expressed in words.

It's like a couple who sleep in the same bed but have different dreams. Outsiders won't notice anything from how they interact with each other.

"Brother Zixiang seemed to have something to say just now. Now there is no one else here. Just say whatever you want to say." Song Xian of course noticed that when he appointed Lin Zixiang, he seemed to be hesitant to speak, so he kept him.

As the head coach of the conscripted team, he had to do ideological work on them and couldn't let them go with resistance. This concerned the lives of many disciples and was no small matter.

"I have nothing to say. I will obey the arrangements of the headmaster."

Lin Zixiang shook his head. He hadn't had the chance to speak out before, and he didn't bother to say anything now. Song Xian's decision had already been made. If he refused, it wouldn't change the decision, and would only make him seem unreasonable.

"I know that Senior Brother Zixiang is almost at the peak of Qi Refining, and he must want to focus all his energy on building the foundation." Seeing that he didn't reveal his feelings, Song Xian didn't hide it either and told him what he was thinking.

"The Beastmaster Sect has summoned our sect to join the war, so we have no choice but to send someone. The Tianshan Camp, Hunyuan Camp, and Guard Camp usually operate independently, with no one in charge of the other. Now that they are being merged and formed together, we need someone with high qualifications and status to lead them."

"Otherwise, they won't obey each other, and there might be chaos. Senior Brother Wenyuan is injured and bedridden, so you have to go."

Lin Zixiang responded expressionlessly, "I have no objection. Since the master has made the decision, I will do my best."

"Actually, this will also be beneficial for Senior Brother Zixiang's foundation building. I will take this opportunity to ask Jiang Feng to petition the Beastmaster Sect to reward one of our disciples for building a foundation at their mountain gate. Then Senior Brother Zixiang can go there to build his foundation."

Hearing this, Lin Zixiang's expressionless face finally changed, and his dissatisfaction and resistance turned into anticipation: "Will this work? Will the Beastmaster Sect agree?"

"Everything depends on human effort. Now it's the Beastmaster Sect that's asking for our help, and this condition isn't excessive. Although the Beastmaster Sect is overbearing, they can't demand unconditional help from us. They'll have to give us some benefits. At worst, we can refuse their reward in exchange for this condition."

Zhong Wenyuan and Lin Zixiang failed twice in building their foundation in Qiyuan Mountain. This shows that the spiritual vein has a significant impact.

Song Xian naturally also hopes to obtain better conditions for Lin Zixiang to build his foundation. If the sect can have one more foundation-building cultivator, its strength will be greatly enhanced.

"Thank you, Master. I will try my best." A hint of joy finally showed on Lin Zixiang's face. Ever since he failed in the foundation-building competition last time, he has been thinking about winning the foundation-building selection competition and going to the Beastmaster Sect's mountain gate to build his foundation.

Especially after witnessing Zhong Wenyuan's failure in building his foundation in Qiyuan Mountain and the damage to his Linghai acupoint.

Zhong Wenyuan's fate made him feel both pity and fear. Every time he went to visit him, he felt deeply terrified, as if he was standing in front of a bottomless abyss, and one more step forward would mean eternal damnation.

Zhong Wenyuan's failure contrasted sharply with Song Xian's success, making him even more determined to reach the Beastmaster Sect's mountain gate to build his foundation. He secretly vowed in his heart that no matter what, he would obtain the qualification to go there to build his foundation.

But it is not so easy to win the first place in the foundation-building selection competition, and he is not very confident. Now, hearing what Song Xian said, he is overjoyed.
