Ye Kong put down his hoe and raised his head in disbelief, "Why?"

"No reason, anyway, we all hope you won't participate." Shengge said this, which seemed reasonable.

"You?" Ye Kong looked at Shengge, "Who else? Zhang Tie? Gongsun Qing?"

"It's not them." Shengge pinched the corner of her clothes.

"Oh, then no one can make me give up this decision." Ye Kong continued to work, too lazy to watch Shengge again.

I didn’t find that the first sentence I said after not seeing each other for a long time was this.

Ye Kong didn't care what they thought.

Please, if you don’t participate this time, you will have to wait ten years next time.

In addition, if someone defeats the twelve elders this time, then the position of the third elder will be given to others.

No, absolutely not! Ye Kong was very determined.

Shengge still refused to leave and stayed there until Ye Kong agreed.

Ye Kong first weeded the medicinal field, watered the newly planted herbs, and loosened the soil in a nearby field. He was busy without stopping. The sun set on the mountain top at noon. Ye Kong picked up the teapot beside him and drank it.

After three cups of tea, I felt a little cooler. I picked up the towel behind my back and touched my face. I saw Shengge through the gap in the towel, still standing there.

Ye Kong walked over and said, "Go back, I have made up my mind."

"Ye Kong, it's not that I mean to stop you, it's just that there are too many inside stories about the appointment of the elder. I just don't want you to be involved in it." Shengge could only remind you so far.

"Inside story?" Ye Kong looked at Shengge. There were always people behind the recent major events, some from Taichuyuan, and some from others.

But there is only one purpose, which is to stop Ye Kong.

Ye Kong suddenly thought that Lefengshan, a small sect, had always paid no attention to it, and had been accused of crimes by the mouths of interested people. It had been lying dormant for fifteen years, plotting to overthrow Taichuyuan, and every step of the way.

But who brought this news to the upper world?

How did Sima Shizun know this?

It's just that the Lefeng Mountain faction was defeated, and the plan in the cave in the back mountain was full of loopholes. Even if others believed it, could they be deceived?

Ye Kong patted Shengge on the shoulder and said, "Thank you for your kindness, but I'm already involved and can't escape."

Only by winning a victory and occupying the commanding heights will the talents hiding in the dark appear one by one.

Just ask for a soldier to block it, and water to cover it with earth.

It's just the people behind it, Ye Kong thought about it, who else can he rely on?

Of course, there is one.

Why hasn't the system shown up yet? The reward promised last time to help Taichuyuan win the title of the No. 1 sect in the world has not yet been fulfilled!

If you say it's a vacation, wouldn't you be deducting the reward?

Ye Kong packed up the medicine field and as soon as he went out, he happened to meet Sima Shizun again.

"What a coincidence, you are also walking here." Ye Kong blurted out a sentence and almost bit his tongue.

"Unfortunately, I have been waiting for you here for a long time." Sima Shizun said.

"You have something to do with me?" Ye Kong pointed at himself. He shouldn't have caused any trouble recently, right?

"Recently, a large number of ferocious beasts appeared in Yunbian Town, a small town two hundred kilometers away from Taichuyuan. The Yun family stationed here fought hard to resist and were miserable. For this reason, they specifically asked Taichuyuan for help. As the saying goes, one party is in trouble.

, support from all directions. I am going to arrange for you to lead a team to reinforce Yunbian Town."

Sima Shizun summarized the incident in a few words, and Ye Kong also roughly understood it, "It's just that in this Yunbian Town, the closest thing to it is Changqingyuan. Why don't you ask for help from Changqingyuan, but Taichuyuan?"

"Firstly, our Taichuyuan has the title of the best sect in the world, and most of them are powerful. Secondly, the Yun family is not on good terms with the Changqingyuan, and they refused to help this time."

Of course, these remarks came from the upper world, and there is no need to explain the details. However, Ye Kong was named and asked to go with him.

"Of course, you can choose the disciples of Taichu Academy and form your own team freely. Moreover, you only need to drive the ferocious beasts out of Yunbian Town. The task is not difficult."

If you drive them away but don't kill them, the beast will come back.

The so-called eradication of weeds requires killing chickens to scare monkeys, so that these ferocious beasts can go back to where they came from.

"That's it." Ye Kong thought for a second. This kind of thing of adding experience and maybe getting good things from ferocious beasts is really a waste of time.

"When will we set off?" Ye Kong asked.

"In about a week."

A week's time allowed Ye Kong to form a team and train. At the same time, Yunbian Town set up traps and prepared to besiege the ferocious beasts.

If it succeeds, there will be no need for Taichuyuan to take action personally.

If you fail, then be prepared to accept it.

"It's just that the competition for the position of elder in Taichu Courtyard is about to start. If I leave like this, won't I miss this competition?" Ye Kong roughly calculated the time and found that they almost overlapped.

Force him to choose one of the two.

Sima Shizun did not expect that Ye Kong was still thinking about this matter. His expression was a little stiff with embarrassment, and then he said, "If you can come back within two days, you will still have a chance."

Two days? To get rid of these hundreds of ferocious beasts? This is obviously impossible.

Could it be that Sima Shizun is also preventing Ye Kong from participating in the competition to become the second elder?

Ye Kong didn't think much and nodded in agreement.

As soon as Ye Kong walked to the entrance of the cave, he found a large number of disciples from Taichu Academy standing at the entrance.

Led by Zhang Tie and Gongsun Qing, they were looking forward to seeing Ye Kong coming back and immediately rushed over to greet him.

Ye Kong's first reaction was, couldn't it be that there was a fire in the cave?

Zhang Tie quickly ran over, grabbed Ye Kong's arm, and asked very affectionately, "Ye Kong, I heard that you are the captain sent to Yunbian Town to drive away the ferocious beasts. I want to ask you if you can let me follow you.

Are you going to catch the ferocious beast together?"

Before Ye Kong could answer, a wave of voices sounded from behind him, "Ye Kong, there is also me, I want to go with you too."

Ye Kong pulled Zhang Tie aside, "How did you know that I was going to lead a team to Yunbian Town?"

"The news has spread throughout the Taichu Academy. Sima Shizun also posted a reward order. Anyone who helps Ye Kong kill the ferocious beast this time can be directly promoted to the first level of disciple."

This kind of reward is much more practical than money exercises and the like.

For now, even if you can't do anything, follow Ye Kong and join the team. Under Ye Kong's leadership, it will not be difficult to drive away and kill the ferocious beasts. When the time comes, as long as you can come back, you can continue to practice in Taichu Academy.

Ye Kong looked at the huge crowd of people. If he brought them all here, let alone the living expenses, he would probably have to take care of the safety of these disciples once he got into a fight with the ferocious beast.

Ye Kong waved his hand to calm the crowd, "It is very dangerous to go to Yunbian Town this time, so I only plan to take nine people down the mountain. For the sake of the collective nature of the team, so they are not listed as candidates in the sect level finals.

I will not consider anyone as a disciple."

As soon as these words came out, the crowd emptied out in an instant.
Chapter completed!
