Chapter 837 - 773: Passion Ignited (Part 2)
"Oh! I wonder which two sects of the Jiuzhou Continent you two are from?"Zhan Pingta probed with his question.
"I am from the Demon Path, and she is an Immortal Sect Disciple from Heaven Stealing Immortal Sect! I believe Li Shisan has already told you how we arrived at Yuanzhen Continent; we have no interest in this place. We just want to find the transmission portal back to Jiuzhou Continent as soon as possible! We need someone who can help us find the Teleportation Array to Jiuzhou Continent!"
Duan Gujin replied.
"How did you get teleported here?"
Zhan Pingta asked curiously.
"We were teleported here by a Teleportation Array, located very near Taihuang Immortal Sect! A companion was also teleported with us at that time, but we lost track of each other after being sent here. When we found our sect mate, we only found her cold corpse. Upon examining the cause of her death, we discovered she had been disgraced and then killed! I don't want to say much more! I'm sure the person who killed my companion was a Taihuang Immortal Sect disciple! When we went to Taihuang Immortal Sect for an explanation, not only did they refuse to listen, but they pursued us instead. Later, we formed a vendetta with Taihuang Immortal Sect!"
Duan Gujin answered.
The woman he spoke about, who was first disgraced and then killed, indeed existed, but this was in a past life.
In a past life, he, Qing Lian, and Taihuang Immortal Sect formed a feud because a companion was first disgraced and then killed by a disciple from Taihuang Immortal Sect.
Despite the obstruction of many Taihuang Immortal Sect disciples, he and Qing Lian decisively took action and killed the culprit.
Zhan Pingta had been secretly observing the expressions on Duan Gujin and Qing Lian's faces, judging they weren't lying.
"Is there anything I can do to help you, two?"
Zhan Pingta thought he should take the initiative to form good relations with Duan Gujin and Qing Lian. With two Martial Artists of Martial Saint Realm as his backing, he would have a greater chance of reclaiming Taihuang Immortal Sect from them.
"We don't want to implicate the Sect Leader. We purposely came here to inform the Sect Leader that it was I who injured the rich disciple from Bamu City. The issues there should be my responsibility; the subsequent Taihuang Immortal Sect disciples targeted me. It has nothing to do with Li Shisan, and since Li Shisan and the young lady are in love, I hope the Sect Leader will fulfill their wish and allow them to marry! I want the Sect Leader to ensure Li Shisan's safety!"
Duan Gujin replied.
"You are too kind. I wouldn't blame Li Shisan; my disciple did not do anything wrong, why would I blame him? The rich disciples from Bamu City deserve punishment for their misconduct! Those from Taihuang Immortal Sect are arrogant and domineering, accustomed to doing all sorts of bad deeds! I've already seen too much to be surprised!"
Zhan Pingta chuckled as he spoke.
Hearing this, Duan Gujin felt great joy in his heart, recognizing that Zhan Pingta was trying to discredit and slander Taihuang Immortal Sect.
"Yes, yes, along our travels we heard of many misdeeds by Taihuang Immortal Sect; it is not worthy of being the top Major Sect of Yuanzhen Continent!"
Duan Gujin said.
"Yes! Yes! They have committed many evil deeds!"
Hearing this, Zhan Pingta's eyes flickered with doubt about Duan Gujin, as he couldn't understand why someone from the Demon Path could accuse Taihuang Immortal Sect of having committed so many misdeeds.
"I'll solve this doubt when I have time in the future!"
Such thoughts filled Zhan Pingta's mind.
He felt he should immediately win over Duan Gujin and Qing Lian.
"I have a Mercenary Group here, although small, it comprises various talents! If you two want to find the transmission portal back to Jiuzhou Continent, the best way is to rely on mercenaries to search for it. If you two were to search aimlessly on Yuanzhen Continent, who knows how much time and energy you would expend!"
Zhan Pingta said.
Upon hearing this, Duan Gujin realized that Zhan Huantai had mercenary group support behind him.
"Looks like in my past life, I truly knew too little about Zhan Huantai's intel!"
His eyes flashed as he asked, "Which Mercenary Group would you recommend, Sect Leader? I have heard there are ten very famous Mercenary Groups on Yuanzhen Continent, and I always wanted to find one to assist me, but I simply have no idea which mercenary group is best to choose!"
Upon hearing Duan Gujin's interest in learning more about Mercenary Groups, Zhan Pingta felt relieved.
If Duan Gujin and Qing Lian had no requests from him, it would be hard for him to persuade them to stay and work for him.
Now that they need to find the transmission portal back to Jiuzhou Continent, nobody knows when they will find it, or if they can even find it on Yuanzhen Continent at all.
Zhan Pingta wanted to assist Zhan Huantai in returning to Taihuang Immortal Sect shortly.
Regarding whether Zhan Huantai could reclaim Taihuang Immortal Sect later, Zhan Pingta had no certainty in his heart.
"I would recommend the Lightning Corps to you. Ranked eighth on Yuanzhen Continent, don't underestimate this group; I merely haven't disclosed its true strength to the outside world! If you are interested, you can come with me to check out the Lightning Corps! I think you two will eventually have to find a Mercenary Group to help you search for the transmission portal; you can train with the Lightning Corps! Are you interested?"
