Chapter 211: Reflections on Presenting a Gift to Daoist He Mingye

"Tsukimichi Sect?"

Xu Ning was clearly surprised when he heard where he was stationed.

Although Yuewang Sect in Jifeng Prefecture is not as good as Yuelan Sect and Qianmiao Sect, it is still a first-class sect.

There must be half-step Dao Realm Grandmasters within the Moon Gazing Sect. Their overall foundation must be quite strong, so why would they send someone to guard it?

Although he had some questions, Xu Ning did not ask them directly. He thought it would be better to ask after the allocation was completed.

Afterwards, Qiu Renshan made arrangements for the other people.

Like Xu Ning, He Mingye was also sent to other sects.

However, the sect that He Mingye went to was a relatively weak sect.

"Everyone, everything is arranged."

Qiu Renshan said, "If there are no questions, then all dispatched personnel should depart within three days. Those stationed at the sect must also immediately begin mobilizing their disciples, informing them of the full situation, and preparing them."

Afterwards, Sect Leader Mi Xingye also said a few words at the end, offering encouragement and gratitude.

No one raised any objections to the arrangements made for Qiu Renshan.

After the meeting, everyone left with something on their mind.

"Mingye, Xu Ning, you two stay behind."

After everyone dispersed, Qiu Renshan called out to He Mingye and Xu Ning.

At this moment, besides him, there were also Mi Xingye, Du Yuan, and Duan Qinghui in the assembly hall.

"Master, elders."

He Mingye and Xu Ning stayed behind.

Of these people, Xu Ning was least familiar with Duan Qinghui.

"As you have all noticed, everyone gathered here today is a martial artist at the Tongyin Realm or above."

Qiu Renshan said, "These people are the core strength of our Yuelan Sect."

"Although you two are disciples, your true strength already surpasses that of many present."

At this moment, Du Yuan said with a smile, "Originally, I intended for you to stay in the sect, since it would be safer. However, your master, Sect Master Mi, has decided to send you out to make the most of your abilities."

"You two don't have any objections, do you?"

Mi Xingye looked at his two disciples with satisfaction in his eyes.

Among the current disciples of the Yue Lan Sect, there are only two above the Tongyin Realm: Xu Ning and He Mingye, who are standing before us.

Moreover, not only were they both at the True Domain Realm and the Half-Step Dao Realm respectively, but they were also his disciples, which made Mi Xingye very proud.

Although Mihoshino was somewhat worried about sending the two abroad, he made the decision after much deliberation.

Firstly, they are strong enough. If we forcibly keep the two of them by our side, people will become dissatisfied. Not only will some people question the sect leader's selfishness, but He Mingye and Xu Ning will also lose personal reputation.

Secondly, Mi Xingye deliberately wanted the two of them to make contributions and gain fame in this incident involving people from Wansheng Prefecture.

Only in this way will they be able to more easily unite the people when the sect is handed over to them in the future.

Of course, this idea is mainly beneficial to He Mingye, because he will inevitably inherit the position of sect leader in the future.

As for Xu Ning, Mi Xingye believes that he is unlikely to take up the position of elder. With his talent, he is more likely to break through to the Dao Realm within a few years and go to Wansheng Prefecture.

"Of course not."

He Mingye and Xu Ning also quickly spoke up.

Although they didn't fully understand Mi Xingye's thoughts, they both knew that he must have considered their feelings.

"However, I have a question."

At this moment, Xu Ning voiced his earlier confusion: "The Moon Gazing Sect is also a large sect, so why does it need me to be stationed there?"

"The Moonlit Sect has recently experienced some changes."

Mi Xingye explained to Xu Ning, "Their sect's two half-step Dao Realm Grandmasters were recently seriously injured, and there's no one to keep order and stabilize morale. They had no choice but to ask us for help."

"The Moon Gazing Sect is well aware that without a strong leader to oversee them, given their size, they will definitely be targeted by the people of Wansheng Prefecture and turned into puppets. If they become puppets, it will have a significant negative impact on the situation in Jifeng Prefecture."

Xu Ning nodded, indicating that he understood.

Xu Ning did not feel too much pressure facing this overseas assignment.

Unless a Grandmaster of the Dao Realm from Wansheng Prefecture personally puts pressure on him, it is not difficult for him to save his life with his own strength.

"Oh, right."

Mi Xingye added, "You're not the only one sent to guard the Moonlit Sect this time; there's another person, who should be an old acquaintance of yours."

"My old friend?"

Xu Ning raised an eyebrow, realizing that he didn't seem to have many old friends in Jifeng Prefecture.

"Si Ying, the true successor of the Qianmiao Sect."

Mi Xingye said, "Si Ying holds a special position in the Qianmiao Sect. Maintaining a harmonious relationship between you two is good for both of our sects."

"Si Ying?"

Xu Ning nodded.

In fact, they had only met once, but he owed the other a debt of gratitude for saving his life.

However, the news of Xu Ning killing Feng Changge was spread by Si Ying, so the outside world, including Mi Xingye, believed that Xu Ning and Si Ying had a close personal relationship.

"We will support each other."

Xu Ning responded.

"The situation is delicate right now, and no one knows how things will develop. You two are outstanding disciples of my sect. While protecting others, it is even more important to protect yourselves."

At this moment, it was Duan Qinghui who spoke.

He Mingye and Xu Ning were taken aback at first, then replied, "Yes, Elder Duan."

Xu Ning recently learned that Duan Qinghui was once a strong supporter of Gu Juan.

This reminder to the two was indeed somewhat unexpected.

"Alright, everyone go back and prepare. Remember to visit the Sect Master Peak when you leave the sect."

Mi Xingye waved his hand.

"This disciple takes his leave."

Xu Ning and He Mingye left the assembly hall at the same time.

"Junior brother, be careful in everything you do while you're out there."

As soon as he came out, He Mingye spoke earnestly, just like the elders and seniors.

Although Xu Ning was stronger than him, He Mingye still showed concern as a senior brother.

"Senior brother too."

Xu Ning responded, thought for a moment, and then pulled He Mingye into a corner.

"Senior brother, I have something to give you."

Xu Ning said to He Mingye.

"What?"

He Mingye found it somewhat strange.

With a thought, Xu Ning produced a crimson longsword in his hand.

This fire-attribute Dao weapon longsword is one of the three Dao weapons that Xu Ning obtained from Shi Fengxu's remains in the previous Demon Beast Map Secret Realm.

"This is……"

The moment the longsword was drawn, He Mingye sensed its extraordinary nature.

He Mingye gently wiped the surface of the Dao Bing longsword with his fingers, and his expression changed instantly.

"This is a Dao soldier, a fire-element Dao soldier!"

He Mingye immediately made the judgment.

"good."

Xu Ning nodded: "Please accept this fire-attribute Dao weapon, Senior Brother."

Xu Ning had already planned to give He Mingye the Dao soldiers.

Xu Ning now possesses seven Dao weapons, not counting the Dao weapon dagger he previously returned to Chu Yeyang.

Of these seven items, three were obtained from the legacy of Shi Fengxu. In addition, there are all-attribute arm guards, alchemy furnaces, and two special weapons that were just obtained.

When he first obtained them, Xu Ning considered exchanging two or three Dao soldiers that he didn't need for resources.

However, at that time, my strength and foundation were shallow, and if I revealed too many good things, I would expose myself to danger.

Now that his strength has increased, Xu Ning is preparing to dispose of the Dao weapon he obtained from Shi Fengxu's inheritance.

One of the weapons with suitable attributes was given to He Mingye, and Xu Ning decided to find an opportunity to exchange the remaining two for resources.

As for the remaining arm guards, alchemy furnace, and special bronze sword and fan, Xu Ning had to keep them for his own use.

"How can this be allowed?"

He Mingye was actually quite tempted by the fire-attribute Daoist longsword, but he still refused it outright.

"Taoist weapons are such precious items that they are extremely rare. As your senior brother, how can I accept your gift?"

He Mingye pushed Xu Ning's hand away directly: "Besides, you are also going out to guard this time, and you will definitely face danger. This soldier will be of great use to you."

"Senior brother..."

Xu Ning smiled: "Since I'm giving you a Dao weapon, it means I definitely don't lack any. Besides this fire-attribute Dao weapon, I have other Dao weapons."

"That won't work either."

He Mingye said, "You can use it to exchange for other resources."

If he has sufficient reserves, He Mingye might propose a condition of exchanging resources for it.

But for a young powerhouse like him, what resources did he have to spare?

Valuable resources were already used up in the practice.

Only veterans like Yoneshino and Tanimoto have been able to accumulate such a wealth of resources over the years.

Xu Ning also saw through He Mingye's stubbornness.

He patiently said, "Senior brother, no matter what, you must accept this Taoist soldier."

"Although you are at the True Domain Realm, you are still no match for those from Wansheng Prefecture."

As Xu Ning spoke, he noticed that He Mingye remained unmoved. After a pause, he added, "In that case, consider this fire-attribute weapon a loaner. Is that alright?"

"Lend it to me?"

He Mingye raised an eyebrow.

"If you refuse again, it seems you truly don't consider me your junior brother. Do you really think that I, as a nominal disciple, am unworthy to call you senior brother?"

Xu Ning joked.

"you……"

He Mingye naturally understood Xu Ning's intention.

"Alright, consider this soldier a loan from me."

Faced with Xu Ning's insistence, He Mingye finally chose to accept: "I will return it to you when that group of people from Wansheng Prefecture leaves."

"it is good."

Xu Ning placed the fire-attribute Dao weapon into He Mingye's hand.

He had already erased the manipulation mark inside, and He Mingye re-engraved the manipulation mark himself, so it could be used directly.

After exchanging words of advice, Xu Ning left through the entrance of the assembly hall.

Looking at the fire-attribute weapon in his hand, He Mingye felt a surge of emotion.

Whether it was a gift or a loan, He Mingye could truly feel Xu Ning's sincerity in entrusting him with such a precious Dao weapon.

"With this fire-attribute weapon, I won't be afraid of encountering a half-step Dao Realm Grandmaster."

He Mingye kept in mind Xu Ning's gesture of gifting him the sword.
