Chapter 510 - 504: Recruitment by Amnesty
Lady Ming King is just a woman; she doesn’t have many ideas.
She relies on her identity as the daughter of the World Honored One, which commands respect within the sect, to occupy a nominal role in managing the sect.
The real decision-maker is the Medicine King Buddha, the trusted minister.
This is why, when Peacock Great Ming King rebelled, the Medicine King Buddha was the one who got beaten.
Seeing all the Tier Two Peak experts present suggest recruiting, Lady Ming King had no objections and immediately agreed to the recruitment plan.
"Medicine King Buddha’s idea is quite good!"
"Back when Wu Nengsheng caused chaos, the sect’s main forces were killed in infighting."
"If we can recruit Black Dragon Heaven and his followers, the sect will surely return to its peak under our leadership." Lady Ming King said with a smug expression, as if already envisioning successfully recruiting Black Dragon Heaven and his subordinates.
At that moment, Lady Ming King was filled with ambition.
The proposal to recruit is solid, but there’s one more issue: who will go to recruit?
Lady Ming King looked around, glanced at the Buddhas present, and said, "Ladies and gentlemen, who among you would be willing to recruit Black Dragon Heaven?"
Black Dragon Heaven is at the Tier Three Peak. Logically, sending a Tier Three Peak to recruit him would be an equal display of strength.
However, Lady Ming King was eager to establish merit, so she thought of sending a Buddha, a Tier Two Peak expert, which would also show her seriousness.
Furthermore, with a Tier Two Peak expert going, Black Dragon Heaven likely wouldn’t dare refuse.
After all, a Tier Two Peak expert can easily wipe out a group of Tier Three Peaks.
Let’s say the recruitment fails; the Tier Two Peak expert can effortlessly eliminate Black Dragon Heaven and his followers.
As for who to send?
Clearly, Lady Ming King wanted one of the several individuals present to undertake this.
This task wasn’t exactly a glamorous opportunity.
If a successful recruitment occurs, a Tier Two Peak recruiting a Tier Three Peak isn’t particularly prestigious.
But if the recruitment fails, it would be quite embarrassing.
A Tier Two Peak is not welcomed by a Tier Three Peak, which would become a laughingstock if spread.
Since it’s not a glamorous opportunity, Medicine King Buddha, Infinite Buddha, and Dingguang Buddha remained silent, obviously with no intention to volunteer.
Medicine King Buddha, Dingguang Buddha, and Infinite Buddha are all sect elders, considered Lady Ming King’s seniors, so she couldn’t pressure them.
After all, in daily affairs, Lady Ming King relies on them to maintain order.
Since Medicine King Buddha, Dingguang Buddha, and Infinite Buddha don’t wish to go, she could only choose one of Bai Ze, Xiang Liu, and Chongming Bird.
These three have just joined the sect and are unlikely to be picky.
For them, a chance to earn merit is quite favorable.
Lady Ming King’s gaze landed on Bai Ze, Xiang Liu, and Chongming Bird, and the meaning in her eyes was clear.
At that time, when you three were being chased by Peacock Great Ming King and had nowhere to escape, I took you in.
Because of this, Peacock Great Ming King even defected from the sect. Now that I need you, you surely can’t refuse.
Coming to a new place and planning to stay long-term requires accepting the leader’s arrangements without refusing.
Moreover, the benefits and treatment of this new place are quite good.
Not long ago, the World Honored One even used the Eight Treasures Rebirth Pool to help them restore injuries and damaged foundations.
If they refuse Lady Ming King’s task now, it would be somewhat unwise.
Bai Ze, Xiang Liu, and Chongming Bird exchanged a glance, signaling that one of them should go.
After all, sending a Tier Two Peak to recruit a Tier Three Peak gives sufficient respect, and normally, failure is unlikely.
Xiang Liu is tongue-tied and short-tempered, unsuitable as a negotiator.
Thus, it was up to Bai Ze and Chongming Bird to go.
Chongming Bird volunteered, saying, "Lady Ming King, I will undertake this task!"
Seeing Chongming Bird volunteer, Lady Ming King smiled, made some commitments, and said, "Great Auspicious Buddha, this task is entrusted to you."
I must say, Lady Ming King’s promises are quite favorable.
Fame, fortune, and authority are all assured.
Unfortunately, Lady Ming King was unaware that this so-called Black Dragon Heaven is Lin Yuan’s avatar.
Chongming Bird cupped his hands toward Lady Ming King and said, "With Lady Ming King’s promises, I will surely fulfill the mission and successfully recruit Black Dragon Heaven."
Lady Ming King smiled, saying, "In that case, there’s no time like the present. Great Auspicious Buddha, please depart immediately."
Chongming Bird rose directly, heading to the Silent Sea.
...
...
Meanwhile, at the Silent Sea, preparations were underway.
Now, the Silent Sea is considered a significant force.
Led by the avatar of Lin Yuan, also known as Black Dragon Heaven’s Seven-headed Evil Flood Dragon.
Under Black Dragon Heaven is the chief steward, Liuyu Heaven.
Currently, Liuyu Heaven has committed entirely to Lin Yuan’s path.
This was once the World Honored One’s most loyal disciple, completely opposing the World Honored One.
However, even Peacock Great Ming King can defect, making Liuyu Heaven’s betrayal quite reasonable.
Beneath that is the Twenty-Eight Celestial Kings.
The Twenty-Eight Celestial Kings are all Tier Three Peaks, each commanding a large army.
As for the origins of the Twenty-Eight Celestial Kings’ armies, it’s straightforward.
They were originally natives who escaped from City of Sin. After fleeing, they continued guerrilla warfare on the World Honored One’s territory.
Previously brainwashed by Zhang Jiao, they were loyal followers of Lin Yuan. After Lin Yuan took over the Silent Sea and called them, these citizens of City of Sin came flocking.
Now, the Silent Sea is considered a significant force, lacking only Tier Two Peak experts.
But does the Silent Sea truly lack Tier Two Peak experts?
No!
Certainly not.
Occupying the Silent Sea was Elder Bai’s idea for Lin Yuan.
Currently, Elder Bai, Qingqiu Mountain Grand Elder, Black Bear Spirit, and Golden-Winged Roc are hidden, lurking on the other side of the Silent Sea.
If any Tier Two Peak experts from the World Honored One’s side were to arrive at the Silent Sea, Elder Bai’s group could support instantly.
As for recruitment?
Sorry, Lin Yuan is not Song Jiang, and he never thought about recruiting.
The reason for occupying the Silent Sea was to wait for the World Honored One to send people to fight.
Indeed, Lin Yuan is inviting a fight.
Black Dragon Heaven and his Twenty-Eight Celestial Kings were suppressed by the world rules in the Real World and were only Tier Four Peaks.
Upon entering the Mysterious World, they broke through the shackles, reaching Tier Three Peak.
To advance further, there’s only one method: devouring.
To devour, battles are necessary!
The subordinates of the World Honored One are their best targets for devouring.
