At the end of April in the Gregorian calendar, Yuan Xide, the second elder of the Ninth Bureau, called Zhou Wu and informed him to gather in the capital.
Liu Haisheng from Mobei and Qin Sanhe from Northeast also received the phone notification, so the three of them took a flight to the capital together.
As for Chu Xiangzhi, Zhou Wu didn't let her go because he felt that it would be extremely dangerous if she went out this time.
After the three of them arrived in the capital, they checked into the Kunlun Hotel. The Ninth Bureau had already booked a room for them.
Before departure, we need to gather and hold a meeting. After all, this is a collective action, and most of the people are Jianghu people, so we must make three rules.
"Why didn't Miss Ao come?"
The second elder was also in the Kunlun Hotel. After picking up Zhou Wu, he asked Ao Qian'er.
After all, Ao Qian'er's combat power is capable of fighting in the Dan realm. Ao Qian'er is much stronger than Zhou Wu, but the outside world does not know the information about Ao Qian'er's strength.
Yes, only a few people knew that Ao Qian'er was very powerful, but they were also given a silence order.
Therefore, the underground world abroad and even the hidden sect forces in China do not know that Ao Qian'er is a big killer.
This time, the second elder mainly wanted Zhou Wu to bring Ao Qian'er over.
However, Ao Qianer did not come.
"She is in retreat."
Zhou Wu shook his head and said: "Strike to a higher realm."
"Hoo~"
Yuan Xide took a deep breath: "That's all, if you don't come, you don't come."
"Get ready and go to the conference room for a meeting." The second elder left first.
After a while, Zhou Wu, Liu Haisheng, and Qin Sanhe entered the multi-functional conference room together.
The second elder and the seventh elder who had been beaten by Ao Qian'er before were also in the conference room.
There are a total of two great alchemy realms, and ten members of the ninth bureau, among whom there is one Bigu, one inspiration, one foundation building, and the remaining seven are all Grand Master ninth level.
At the same time, on the other side, there were about a dozen people dressed in different costumes sitting.
When Yuan Xide saw Zhou Wu coming in, he just nodded lightly.
The seventh elder who was beaten by Qian'er didn't even look at him.
He still remembers his grudge.
Other people in the world were very polite, and some even smiled at Zhou Wu to show their friendship.
Zhou Wu and Qin Sanhe Liu Haisheng sat down and did not speak.
And people continue to enter the conference room one after another!
After a while, Dongdian Tian Shihai came in followed by several people.
When Tian Shihai saw Zhou Wu, he smiled and nodded.
But there was no communication. After all, this was a meeting hosted by the Ninth Bureau.
There were twenty people in total, and they were all ninth-grade grandmasters.
That's right, including Zhou Wu, there are twenty, nineteen ninth-grade grandmasters except Zhou Wu.
"Okay, everyone is here."
Yuan Xide knocked on the table at this time and said: "The meeting is now."
The door of the conference room was closed, and Yuan Xide continued: "First of all, I would like to thank all my colleagues in Jianghu for coming to help."
"The fact that you are here shows that none of our Chinese cultivators are afraid of fighting. I am very relieved."
"Some of you sitting here may know me, but most of them don't know who I am."
"My name is Yuan Xide, and I am currently the first deputy director of the Ninth Bureau."
"Now I will tell you about this trip to Glei Island."
"Grai Island is an uninhabited island located deep in the Indian Ocean. On this island, there is a palace of Cronus, the god of Qintan in ancient Greek mythology."
"Naturally, the God of Qintan was just anointed by later generations, but according to our inference, Cronus's cultivation level is equivalent to the Dan realm of my Chinese cultivator."
"In other words, Cronus is actually a strong man in the divine realm."
"The palace of Cronus does not usually appear. It only appears for three hours every twelve years when the tide recedes."
"So, we only have three hours from entry to exit."
"Also, since the miracles here are known to the underground world, there will be a great gathering, and powerful people from all over the world will go there."
"And I, Huaxia, did not participate in the search for external miracles in the past, but twelve years ago, our ninth elder took three people to participate, but they failed to come out within three hours."
"This time our first mission is to find the Ninth Elder and the three team members, and the second mission is to try to find Cronus' treasure."
"As for what the treasure is, no one knows."
"However, what I want to say, and the most important point is that I, the Chinese cultivator, have been the target of hunting in the underground world for so many years."
"You should also know very well that our country, China, has resources that can allow superpowers to evolve. A hundred years ago, the coalition forces of various countries openly entered our country's land to burn, kill and loot!"
"And these are just official plunders. At that time, our Ninth Bureau and our Huaxia Yinmen had already been defeated first, so there were coalition forces from various countries and Japan's war of aggression."
"That war was tragic and devastated our Chinese people and all life on the Chinese land."
"I don't want to talk too much about the past, but before every war started, underground forces had actually invaded earlier."
"Our Ninth Bureau, our Chinese cultivators, and the Chinese Hidden Gate are actually the first wall. In network terms, it is a firewall."
"If foreigners want to invade China, they can only destroy our firewall first, and then the armies of various countries will enter. If they cannot destroy our firewall, their officials from various countries will not dare to come."
"So, we are the top priority."
"Mr. Yuan, let me interrupt."
At this time, Zhou Wu suddenly raised his hand and said: "Back then...how could we lose?"
He was puzzled. How could someone with such great strength as Jiuju, the Hidden Sect, and some ancient martial arts inheritance be defeated?
Yuan Xide sighed: "Infighting."
He only said two words, internal fighting!
That is to say, there was internal fighting among practitioners within China, and then foreign forces took advantage of it.
Zhou Wu asked no more questions.
And Yuan Xide also continued: "Fortunately, in this peaceful era, fortunately we, the Chinese monks, and you all have the country in our hearts. This is my Chinese fortune."
"Well, it is very dangerous to go to Glei Island this time. We may have to face joint suppression from the foreign underground world."
"After this time, it is very likely that someone will die abroad, so if you are scared or worried, you can raise it now and withdraw."
After saying that, he looked at the twenty people.
However, no one moved, everyone came, and besides, they are all ninth-grade grand masters, so they naturally have the ability.
"good."
Yuan Xide clapped his hands and said: "This is my Chinese Jianghu person."
"That's all I have to say today. I hope everyone will obey orders and act according to the situation."
"There will be a charter flight tomorrow. Everyone will prepare for it one more night and leave early tomorrow morning."
"Mr. Yuan, wait a moment."
At this moment, Zhou Wu raised his hand again and said: "Won't Yinmen participate?"
Yuan Xide smiled bitterly: "Although our Ninth Bureau is responsible for the affairs of Chinese practitioners, the Yinmen is not one of them, so there is no Yinmen participating this time."
"However, I don't know if there will be people going there privately."
Everyone suddenly realized that the Ninth Bureau cannot control the Yinmen, so they don't have to listen to the Yinmen's orders. People can go if they want to, but they can't go if they don't want to. You, the Ninth Bureau, can't control it either.
"Okay, let's break up the meeting and let's get acquainted with each other."
The second elder and the seventh elder took the people away.
