On the other side, Blue Star Immortal Sect
In the main peak, the sect master called the peak masters of each peak together to discuss things. Looking at everyone sitting together, he stroked his beard and glanced at the many venerables. Finally, he asked, "Are Venerable Sique and Venerable Muxin not here?"
"Master, they are still recovering from their injuries." A venerable stood up and said.
Hearing this, the sect master nodded and said, "Since they didn't come, let me tell you about this." He paused and said, "The restrictions in the Immortal Sect's secret realm were loosened, and it was found that it was the work of the demon cultivators. It was mainly to cause unrest in the secret realm, causing the elite disciples of our four sects to die in this training."
He looked at everyone and said, "Fortunately, we discovered it early. Apart from a few dead disciples and more than 20 seriously injured disciples, everyone else returned safely. It is said that the other three sects each lost 20 to 30 of their 100 disciples. Compared to them, the loss of disciples in our Blue Star Immortal Sect is considered light."
"Now the restrictions of the secret realm have been resealed and activated by our four sect masters. However, due to this incident, this year's training can only be stopped. In addition, each sect has a mission, which is to select some disciples and lead them to the demon cultivators' territory to besiege the demon cultivators' Nandi Ridge and give them a warning. Our Blue Star Immortal Sect will send fifty people, including five venerables."
Hearing this, a venerable asked, "Master, when will we set off?"
"The time agreed with the four sects is half a month later." The sect master said, looking at everyone and asked: "Among these five venerable leaders, which five do you think are the most suitable?"
After hearing this, all the venerables fell silent. They looked at each other, and no one spoke.
Seeing that everyone was silent and no one spoke, the sect leader stroked his beard and said, "You are welcome to speak. I still need to discuss the venerable you recommended with several elders, so you can tell me your opinions."
Seeing this, two of the venerables looked at each other, one nudged the other with his elbow, signaling him to speak, and the other remained silent again. After a pause, he said, "Master, in terms of the strength of the venerables, Venerable Four Ques and Venerable Mu Xin are naturally the strongest among us. I think it is most appropriate to let them lead the team, but the two of them are seriously injured and are still recovering, so..."
He stopped talking here and didn't speak again. Si Que and Mu Xin were the strongest among them. Moreover, they didn't know that Si Que and Mu Xin had obtained two ninth-level beasts in the secret realm. Their fighting power was absolutely unparalleled. If they were to lead the team to besiege the Demon Cultivator Nan Di Ridge, then they should be among the five venerables.
"Yes, their strength is indeed higher than yours, but, as you said, they are recovering from injuries, and this time the injuries are extremely serious. I am afraid that they are not suitable to be the leader this time."
The leader said, walking with his hands behind his back. After thinking for a while, he said, "You guys go back first! I will discuss this matter with a few elders and make a final decision."
"Yes." Everyone responded and withdrew first, while two of the venerables stood where they were and did not leave. They thought about it and seemed a little hesitant. They wanted to say something but didn't know whether they should say it or not.
