Ye Cangtian briefly explained his plan to eliminate the Five Poisons Sect.
"This..."
Dongfang Mingyue's expression immediately changed upon hearing this. The Five Poisons Sect was an evil force, notorious for its wickedness, and indeed deserved to be eradicated.
However, eliminating the Five Poisons Sect was no easy feat.
Due to constant friction with the Five Poisons Sect, Dongfang Mingyue had been investigating their strength. The results were shocking.
The Five Poisons Sect was incredibly powerful. Even with the rapid rise of the Yin Group, their overall strength was comparable to that of the Yin Group.
This, of course, did not include the Heaven-level powerhouses within the Yin Group. If they were included, the situation would be different.
In other words, the Five Poisons Sect was currently at a disadvantage due to the lack of Heaven-level powerhouses. Otherwise, with their strength, they would undoubtedly be among the top six in China's ruins!
For Ye Cangtian to want to eliminate such a force now would likely be very difficult.
Contemplating this, Dongfang Mingyue looked at Ye Cangtian and asked, "You brat, this is no small matter. How confident are you?"
Upon hearing this, Ye Cangtian's eyes darted, and he replied, "If we join forces, I have at least a sixty to seventy percent chance. I've already instructed the Imperial Dragon Villa to assemble five strong teams..."
"Too few."
Dongfang Mingyue glanced at him and continued, "When dealing with an evil force like the Five Poisons Sect, one either doesn't act, or they completely eradicate them when they do..."
In Dongfang Mingyue's opinion, if the Five Poisons Sect could not be completely wiped out, then the remnants of the sect might retaliate.
With their poison-using abilities, if they went mad, many innocent people could be implicated!
Hearing this, Ye Cangtian's expression turned grim.
He had initially thought that eliminating the major figures within the Five Poisons Sect would suffice, and the minor figures could be let off.
After all, without the backing of the major figures, these minor figures wouldn't be able to stir up much trouble, and they would eventually settle down over time.
However, Dongfang Mingyue's words had reminded him.
These minor figures were also capable of using poison. If they went mad, ordinary civilians wouldn't be able to withstand it.
Thinking this, he looked at Dongfang Mingyue and said, "Sister Mingyue, you're right. It seems I need to adjust my plan and try to ensure foolproof success..."
...
As various small forces slowly withdrew from Dragon City.
In a corner of Dragon City, two figures appeared. They were dressed in black and wore face coverings, appearing somewhat mysterious.
"Sir, we have investigated and confirmed that it was due to Ye Cangtian's return, forcefully resolving all troubles and forcing all factions to withdraw from the city..."
One of the black-clad men said respectfully to another, relaying all the findings of his investigation.
"Hmph, hmph, it seems this Ye Cangtian has some capability."
The other black-clad man's eyes revealed a faint smile.
"Sir, you mustn't underestimate Ye Cangtian! He is a Heaven-level powerhouse, extremely difficult to deal with!"
Hearing his subordinate's reminder, the man glared at him and said, "Long Yi, do you think I don't know his strength? Do you need to remind me of these things?"
"Sir, your subordinate admits his mistake. It was your subordinate's impudence!"
Sensing the man's stern gaze, Long Yi's heart trembled, and he quickly replied.
"Forget it, you are only looking out for me."
The man waved his hand and continued, "Long Yi, I have a mission for you. According to the original plan, you will head directly to the Yin Group..."
Upon hearing this, Long Yi's brow furrowed, and he said, "Sir, what use would I be going there in this identity? Wouldn't they just kick me out!"
"Hmph! How dare they!"
The man immediately snorted coldly and continued, "You go boldly, don't forget where you came from!"
As the words fell, Long Yi's eyes rolled, and he finally nodded, "Alright, your subordinate will do his best to accomplish this mission!"
Heh heh, Ye Cangtian, your Heaven-level strength can only bluff others, but it cannot bluff me!
Watching Long Yi's departing figure, the man's eyes were filled with fighting spirit as he muttered to himself.
...
The next morning.
Ye Cangtian awoke from his cultivation. Feeling the bright sunlight, Ye Cangtian was silent for a moment before heading to the Qiankun Hall.
He had returned yesterday and immediately dealt with matters at the Qin Xin Garden. After returning to the hall, he had a lively time with the Death God Squad.
Now that he finally had some free time, he decided to visit Elder Long.
However, when he arrived at the Qiankun Hall, he discovered that Elder Long was not there.
He immediately realized something and left the Qiankun Hall without a word.
When Ye Cangtian reappeared, he had already arrived at the great river of Dragon City.
After walking along the riverbank for a short while, he indeed saw a familiar figure – it was Elder Long.
Elder Long was dressed as usual, in simple attire, wearing a conical hat, sitting by the bank fishing.
However, Elder Long was not alone. Behind him were several familiar figures.
These figures were all performing the same action, with a piece of paper floating in the palm of their hands.
Seeing this scene evoked some memories in Ye Cangtian. Not long ago, he too had used the same method to practice controlling spiritual energy.
Heh heh.
These little brats were really tight-lipped. Yesterday, not a single word was revealed.
Thinking this, Ye Cangtian smiled and then strode over.
"Cangtian?"
"Boss?"
On the other side, the individuals who were cultivating also noticed Ye Cangtian's arrival and were immediately startled.
The pieces of paper that were originally steady in their hands all fluttered to the ground due to their surprise.
These people were none other than the Death God Squad, led by Rose.
"Lack of concentration, paper falls, everyone gets punished, ten laps!"
Before Ye Cangtian could get close, an aged voice could be heard. It was Elder Long speaking.
"This..."
Upon hearing Elder Long's voice, the members of the Death God Squad wore bitter expressions.
But they dared not disobey. The next moment, they rushed into the river and swam towards the opposite bank.
"Uh..."
Seeing such a scene, Ye Cangtian was dumbfounded.
It must be known that the great river contained Ruin Sturgeon and Ruin Fangfish, both of which were quite fierce.
Although their individual strength was not great, they were numerous.
Even a Earth-level powerhouse might not be able to withstand the attack of the fish swarm!
Looking at the width of the river, it was at least a thousand meters wide. Under the attack of so many fish, swimming ten laps would likely be a catastrophic punishment.
Thinking this, Ye Cangtian walked over and sat down beside Elder Long, saying, "Senior, isn't this a bit too strict?"
"Heh heh, you're feeling sorry for them?"
Elder Long looked at Ye Cangtian playfully and continued, "I heard from them that you were quite extreme when you trained them before."
"..."
At these words, Ye Cangtian was instantly speechless. It was true that his methods had been quite strict before.
However, seeing someone else rigorously training his brothers and sisters now made him feel a little uneasy.
Thinking this, Ye Cangtian awkwardly scratched his head and said, "Elder Long, what's going on? How did these little brats end up following you?"
Hmph!
Upon hearing this, Elder Long snorted coldly and said sternly, "It's all thanks to that girl Mingyue!"
Elder Long explained that Dongfang Mingyue would come to fish whenever she had nothing to do. It was both out of boredom and loneliness.
So, she directly handed over the Death God Squad to him...
When Elder Long heard that it was the Death God Squad personally assembled by Ye Cangtian, and that Yao Bao'er was also a member,
He agreed to it out of respect for Ye Cangtian and Yao Bao'er.
"Heh heh, thank you for your trouble, Elder Long."
Upon hearing this, Ye Cangtian quickly cupped his hands towards Elder Long.
Seeing this, Elder Long glared back.
He said with annoyance, "You're running around for the Yin Group and don't have time to train them. It's only natural for this old man to help you lighten the load. Besides, their talents are indeed quite good..."
Elder Long's evaluation of the Death God Squad was very positive.
The talents of these individuals were all very good, but their progress had been somewhat affected by the limited cultivation conditions in the outside world.
However, this was not a major issue. These people were still young, and with effort, they might be able to reach a certain height.
Furthermore, each member of the Death God Squad possessed certain unique characteristics. If these characteristics were cultivated to their extreme, they would also become formidable existences.
