"This journey, I have one condition."
After Luo Kang finished speaking, the people present were all stunned. The atmosphere suddenly froze.
"Peak Master Luo Kang, entering the Land of Guixu is currently the most important matter for our Azure Hall. If we can obtain resources from it, it will also bring blessings to the beings on our Azure Sky Continent. For Peak Master Luo Kang to propose a condition now, I fear it is somewhat inappropriate," Di Renhai said with a cold snort.
Luo Kang did not comment but turned his gaze to An Batian.
Seeing this, An Batian immediately waved his hand, signaling Di Renhai to stop, and then looked at Luo Kang and asked, "Peak Master Luo Kang, what is your condition?"
"My condition is very simple. This time, when we enter the Land of Guixu, I want to bring one person with me. And I can guarantee that he will not be a burden to any of you. Of course, if any of you have the ability, you can also bring disciples, I will not object," Luo Kang said slowly, nodding.
"Bring someone? I think Peak Master Luo Kang wants to bring Li Xuan," Di Renhai said with a cold sneer. Although the Land of Guixu was full of dangers, the opportunities within were also extremely attractive. Luo Kang's move was undoubtedly to give Li Xuan a chance.
"Peak Master Di guessed correctly. This time, I will indeed bring Li Xuan along. Peak Master Di, as Saint Son Li Xuan's status, am I not supposed to bring him instead of someone else?" Luo Kang said with a smile.
"You..." Di Renhai was stunned, clearly not expecting Luo Kang to admit it so directly. However, Di Renhai was also somewhat moved by Luo Kang's proposal. Entering the Land of Guixu was now a sure thing, and bringing a disciple along would also be an opportunity to enhance his strength.
Seeing Di Renhai momentarily speechless, An Batian looked around at everyone and then asked, "What does everyone think?"
"I believe that since Peak Master Luo Kang is confident in bringing Saint Son Li Xuan along, we should comply with Peak Master Luo Kang's request. Saint Son Li Xuan became a Saint Son through his own strength and hard work. Perhaps he can bring us even greater surprises in the Land of Guixu," Liu Wen, who was on good terms with Luo Kang, naturally sided with him.
"Indeed. Peak Master Luo Kang controls the Seven Treasures Hall, and the strength of Saint Son Li Xuan is not too bad. This trip should not be a problem," Baili Sheng also agreed after Liu Wen finished speaking.
"In my opinion, why don't we have the Saint Sons from each peak bring their disciples this time? Their strength is not weak, and they should be able to protect themselves. Some things we cannot use might be just what they need," Zuo Changfeng said after a moment of thought.
"I second that," Luo Chengqiu, the peak master of the Second Peak, said, glancing at Di Renhai before focusing on his own affairs.
"I also second that," Ye Wuque, the peak master of the Fourth Peak, also said.
An Batian nodded slightly and then said, "In that case, this time, each peak will bring their respective Saint Sons along. However, no other disciples will be allowed to accompany them. The Land of Guixu is full of unpredictable events, and too many people will only make it difficult to look after themselves. I hope everyone understands this."
"We obey the Sect Master's command," everyone bowed and responded.
An Batian nodded and said, "Alright, you may all disperse. We will depart in one month."
As An Batian finished speaking, a flash of spiritual light appeared on each person present, and in an instant, they all vanished from their original positions.
On the summit of the Seventh Peak, Luo Kang looked at the pavilion where Li Xuan resided and murmured, "He still hasn't come out of seclusion after such a long time. Could he have encountered some difficulty? I've secured this opportunity for you. If you can't make it, then it can only be said that you have no destiny with the Land of Guixu."
After speaking, Luo Kang moved and disappeared instantly.
Perhaps sensing the actions of the higher echelons of the Azure Hall, some changes occurred within the Azure Hall again. As the time approached, less than five days remained until the departure.
"What is Li Xuan doing? So much time has passed, and there's still no sign of him coming out of seclusion," Luo Kang stood outside Li Xuan's pavilion, a trace of urgency in his eyes.
"Alas. Cultivation in seclusion is inherently unpredictable. It seems now that he will have to miss out."
Luo Kang sighed slightly and turned to leave.
*Creak.*
Just then, a door creaked open. Then, a voice came from inside the room.
"Master, how can I miss this journey to the Land of Guixu?"
Luo Kang stopped at the sound and turned around.
He saw a figure standing in front of the pavilion door. This person was Li Xuan, who had been in seclusion.
"I thought you were going to miss this trip to Guixu."
Luo Kang instantly appeared before Li Xuan and looked him up and down with a satisfied expression. "Not bad. You've already reached the advanced stage of the Shore Realm. From the looks of it, you are only one step away from the peak of the Shore Realm."
Li Xuan smiled and said, "Hehe, this is all thanks to your guidance, Master. By the way, Master, when do we depart for the Land of Guixu?"
"There are four days left. This time, apart from the peak masters and the Sect Master of our Seven Peaks, the seven Saint Sons will also go together. As for what opportunities you can obtain, it will all depend on yourself," Luo Kang said.
Li Xuan nodded, and his eyes burned with fervor as he looked at Luo Kang and said with a smile, "Master, thank you."
"Alright, prepare yourself well. We depart in four days." Luo Kang nodded slightly and disappeared quickly before Li Xuan.
Watching Luo Kang leave, a smile appeared on Li Xuan's lips. He had just woken up from his seclusion and heard Luo Kang's muttering. The timing was perfect.
The Land of Guixu, how could I, Li Xuan, miss such an opportunity?
