“Since Li Shouyi is already dead, his promotion is no longer considered.”
“The government office might suspect demonic sect activities based on his identity and keep the people here obedient for a while.”
Tang Yunsheng swiftly made a decision; he was also raised from rank to rank and was decisive in his actions.
“As for the three of you, take out your bone cards.”
The three men handed over the bone cards with the word “Manager”. Tang Yunsheng went to the statue of the Immortal Eternity, paid his respects to the Immortal Eternity by kneeling three times, his hand emitted golden light as he quickly muttered some words that were indistinct.
He swiped over the three bone cards and the characters for “Manager” changed to “Rudder Master”.
Tang Yunsheng, as an Inspector, was authorized by the higher-ups and could make arrangements for the promotions and demotions of the Rudder Master and those below.
Making Lu Yang and his group Rudder Masters was not Tang Yunsheng’s intention, but that of the higher-ups. As for which level of higher-ups, Tang Yunsheng was not clear. He heard it was the decision of the Deputy Master or even higher. He was just executing the orders.
“Which county are we supposed to serve as Rudder Masters?” Meng Jingzhou seemed eager to flex his muscles.
Tang Yunsheng shook his head: “What are you thinking? You are only at the initial stage of Foundation Establishment and if you were the Rudder Master, can you command respect from the people below? The place like Yanjiang Rudder would not accept you.”
“A Rudder Master will be parachuted into Yanjiang County. This is not your concern anymore.”
“Then our Rudder Master status…”
“Your promotion to Rudder Masters was not my decision, but that of the higher-ups. They have elevated you to the level of Rudder Master without assigning duties, but they are giving you only ranks. In this way, you will gain many rights exclusive to Rudder Masters and will be less shackled.”
“The higher-ups have entrusted you with a covert operation, and no one else can be told about it besides the four of us!”
The three of Lu Yang stood upright, eagerly awaiting.
Tang Yunsheng whispered: “The higher-ups have given you a year to find a way to infiltrate the Seek Dao Sect, I’m your contact!”
The pupils of the three men shrank slightly, taken aback by the task.
Tang Yunsheng waved his hand: “I know this mission is extremely difficult. Among the Five Great Immortal Sects, Suspension Temple has very few people making it inconvenient to plant agents. Seek Dao Sect’s thinking is too free, making it difficult to infiltrate and if you do, you will be exposed due to not fitting in.”
“The three of you have a high degree of compatibility with the Seek Dao Sect, and maybe you can successfully infiltrate the Seek Dao Sect.”
“It’s not necessary for you to become disciples of the Seek Dao Sect. According to intelligence analysis, there are abundant entertainment industries within the Seek Dao Sect, and they recruit every year. You can use this opportunity to infiltrate the Seek Dao Sect!”
“Of course, what I’m saying is just one method. The sect will not interfere, you can be creative and find other ways. The deadline is one year. If you cannot complete the task within a year, the higher-ups will assign you a new task!”
Seeing the confident expressions of Lu Yang and his friends, Tang Yunsheng shook his head and laughed. They didn’t realize how difficult it was to infiltrate the Seek Dao Sect. Many people had already lost their lives in the Seek Dao Sect.
He took out three talismans and gave them to the trio: “There are many dangers within the Seek Dao Sect. These are Teleportation Talismans. If the mission fails, use these talismans to escape immediately!”
These three were rare talents within the Eternity Sect, especially Lu Yang and Meng Jingzhou. The Master naturally wanted to fully protect them.
Dangerous situation within the Seek Dao Sect? Meng Jingzhou thought returning to the Seek Dao Sect was like coming home, where was the danger? The only possible danger was the Eldest Senior Sister.
“Did Little Chu ever tell you how to resurrect the Immortal Eternity?”
Lu Yang shook his head: “Master Chu only told us the first step, which was to please the Immortal Eternity by killing. As for the second step, he said that our positions were too low and according to the regulations, it could not be disclosed.”
Tang Yunsheng said: “Now that you all are Rudder Masters, you are qualified to know how to resurrect the Immortal Eternity. This is also the duty of all Rudder Masters, come, let me demonstrate it to you.”
Tang Yunsheng knelt in front of the Immortal Eternity, raised his hands high, and cried out loudly, “Immortal Eternity, Miao Muzhen above, your most devoted follower is sincerely calling you here, please descend your Immortal Mark and protect the human race!”
After saying that, he knocked his head on the ground three times then stood up. The ceremony was completed.
The three men were confused. That’s it?
Man Gu was even muttering to himself, why does the name of Immortal Eternity sound like a Barbarian’s?
Tang Yunsheng said: “You must faithfully call the Immortal Eternity as I just did, but you can’t say ‘Miao Muzhen’.”
“Wiry is that?”
“Because ‘Miao Muzhen’ is not the real name of the Immortal Eternity.”
The trio was even more puzzled, if it’s not the real name, then why say it?
Tang Yunsheng explained: “To resurrect the Immortal Eternity, we must utter his title and his Immortal name. The first step of killing to please the Immortal Eternity means that the Immortal Eternity will guide us to speak his Immortal name in the dark when he’s pleased.”
“We have learned from the ruins that his title is Immortal Eternity, but his Immortal name is not recorded in the ruins. Before the Immortal Eternity descends his Immortal Mark to hint us, our Eternity Sect can only try again and again.”
“Out of respect for the Immortal Eternity, the time interval for calling the Immortal name has to be a month!”
Tang Yunsheng took out a battered copy of “Great Xia Dictionary”: “The majority of names have been tried. Recently, I suspect that the Immortal Eternity is a Barbarian, and I’m trying with Barbarian names.”
The Ancient Barbarian Tribe was once a key force in protecting the Human race, which also aligned with the identity of the Immortal Eternity.
Tang Yunsheng took out three thick notebooks and gave them to the three men. On the cover was written “Notebooks of Already Called Immortal’s Names (120th Edition)”.
The number of Immortal names recorded was so large that Lu Yang suspected that the Eternity Sect had tried all the names they could think of.
“We compile a “Notebook of Already Called Immortal’s Names” every few decades to avoid repetition. This is the latest compilation, all of you should look at it and try a call. Just don’t repeat what’s on the notebook.”
Lu Yang cried out: “Immortal Eternity Archimedes is above, your most devout follower is sincerely calling upon you here, please descend your Immortal Mark and protect the human race!”
Meng Jingzhou cried out: “Immortal Eternity Li Goudan is above…”
Man Gu cried out: “Immortal Eternity Yelu Sa-la-de is above…”
Apparently, very few names were left for Immortal Eternity.
After the three men called, the Immortal Eternity did not descend his Immortal Mark to resurrect himself.
“Alright, I’ve already relayed the mission that was given to me by the higher- ups for you, you gather your things and find a way on your own to infiltrate Seek Dao Sect.”
“Yes.”
Back at the barbecue restaurant, Lan Ting was already waiting for the three in the lobby. Lu Yang and Lan Ting discussed and gave a simple account of what happened afterward, as well as the task given to them by Tang Yunsheng. The look in Lan Ting’s eyes was strange as she looked at the trio.
The Eternity Sect is doomed sooner or later.
“Since you are leaving, it’s time for me to return to Fairy Palace to debrief on the mission. I had a great time in these past ten days, thank you three for your help. Although I did not join the demonic sect, helping you kill the Rudder Master counts as a major merit and I could earn quite a few contribution points.” Lan Ting smiled sweetly as she said her reluctant farewell.
The term ‘Fate’ is indeed wondrous. Initially, she helped Lu Yang kill the tiger just because they were both from the Immortal Sect. She even had the task of infiltrating the demonic sect then, who would have thought that in the end, she, the one with the task, didn’t join the demonic sect, but Lu Yang and his group who initially didn’t even know about the demonic sect had joined the demonic sect.
Now, Tang Yunsheng is still in the county and if there’s too much contact between them, Tang Yunsheng might discover it and that would cause unnecessary trouble.
“We’ll meet again if fate allows, on the long road of life!”
“Goodbye!”
“Take care!”
After bidding Lan Ting farewell, the three started to pack up their things. Meng Jingzhou suddenly remembered, “What about our horses?”
