Chapter 353: Sect Master Xiong's Unwelcome Request
When Wang Zhifan returned to the real world from Gaia, it was already past six in the afternoon.
He did not bring the spaceship back with him, but parked it on a flat mountaintop he found on Gaia.
As an interstellar combat spaceship, the defense capability of the Universe SIII is absolutely excellent. With a little AI autonomous defense setting, the spaceship can be guaranteed to be safe when he is away.
"Only a very small part of the exploration of Gaia has been completed, but I really don't have much time to invest in it. There are still many things waiting for me to complete... I will let Yilin and Yali try to help later."
Wang Zhifan chose to come back at this time for a clear purpose. He quickly found the two succubus maids who were doing their daily work in the villa and told them that he was going to assign a new task.
"Go to the place where we went yesterday to drive the spaceship? Master, what is a spaceship?"
In the kitchen on the first floor, the succubus Yilin, who was preparing dinner, listened to Wang Zhifan's words. She, who was wearing a pink apron around her waist, immediately shifted her sight from the stir-fried pork with green peppers in the pot that exuded a slightly spicy meaty aroma, and looked back at Wang Zhifan and asked in confusion.
"It is a very large mechanical vehicle. You will understand when you see it. There will be special instructions for operation. You can take it step by step."
Wang Zhifan said as he approached the stir-fried pork with green peppers in the pot and twitched his nose slightly. He felt that Yilin's cooking skills had improved again.
Then he walked to the table not far away and saw the succubus Yali adding a strong sauce with a sour and spicy taste to a bowl of chopped cucumbers on the table. She was probably making a cold salad with smashed cucumbers. Her skills were also quite good.
"You two have a heavy taste recently. They are all spicy dishes."
Wang Zhifan immediately complained when he saw the two dishes for today's dinner.
"Master, there is still a green vegetable, an eggplant with oil and a tomato egg soup that have not been made."
Yali immediately turned around to respond to him, pointing to the cabbage, eggplant, tomato, egg, onion and other ingredients on the table that she had processed.
"Yes, I'll take you there after dinner."
Wang Zhifan's appetite was slightly aroused when he saw this. He regretted not bringing back some game from Gaia just now. The two maids should be able to handle it with their current skills.
Then there was a rare short period of leisure. Wang Zhifan did nothing. He walked to the flowerbed outside to think about his subsequent plans, and then was called by the maid to have dinner.
He now had an amazing appetite. He ate all the white rice in a large rice cooker, and there was not a drop of vegetables and soup left. While eating, he also talked to the succubus maid about the precautions for the subsequent work, and told them to complete a collection task on Gaia in advance. Specifically, he needed to collect a batch of specific fruits for later use.
After this period of eating, he took them into Gaia, first taught them to know the spacecraft and how to enter the teaching cabin to study, and then personally picked the wild fruits he needed as a demonstration, so that they could complete this collection task first.
"If you encounter powerful beasts outside while collecting, don't fight them. Just retreat to the spaceship to ensure safety. Also, before I come to personally test your driving skills next time, don't really drive this spaceship. Just have fun in the teaching cabin."
On a flat mountaintop on Gaia, next to the huge cold technological frigate parked on it, Wang Zhifan gave instructions to the two succubus maids who looked a little serious as if they had a major mission, and then prepared to leave to do other things.
He planned to let the two maids help drive the spaceship to explore this beautiful planet in the future, but the premise is that they really have the wisdom and ability. If it doesn't go well, he will have to think of another way. Maybe it would be more convenient to customize a special exploration AI on the urban planet.
Saying goodbye to Yilin and Yali who were about to start collecting, Wang Zhifan took out the guest token and rushed to the fantasy world of Wuji Sect, and started his long-standing faith collection plan.
In fact, when he was on the city planet, he had considered promoting faith there. After all, he had a high-ranking status as the leader of the planet. But the problem was that according to his current understanding, that interstellar world was a completely technological world, and there was no faith or gods. If he relied on his status to forcibly promote things that the residents could not understand, it would most likely cause very bad consequences, and his reputation as the leader would be damaged and he would not be able to continue.
You know, the world civilization where the city planet is located is highly developed, and it is not his one-man show. He feels that he is more like an honorary leader with great influence, otherwise it is impossible to explain why the planet can operate well without his orders.
This time, Wang Zhifan's landing node is still located in Pingwu City. After getting familiar with the leader of the local leader Wuji Sect, he directly summoned the red deer horse to fly up from the city and went to the Wuji Great Hall on Wuji Mountain to inquire about the situation.
Then he found that it was a coincidence when he came. The leader of the Wuji Sect, Xiong Tianli, was teaching two disciples to practice on the mountain. When he found him coming, he immediately showed up to meet him.
"Xun'er, Qing'er! You must know this guest Wang, so I won't introduce him any further! But please note that guest Wang will be the new owner of the North Wind and Snow Tower! Remember not to miss the etiquette!"
At this time, on the bluestone square at the top of Wuji Mountain, Xiong Tianli, a middle-aged muscular man with long black hair, met Wang Zhifan who had just dismounted with a pair of agile young men and women, and told the two disciples the new identity of the visitor in a loud voice.
"Meetings, Master Wang!"
"Meetings, Master Wang!"
The young men and women in black clothes following Xiong Tianli hurriedly bowed slightly and clasped their fists to salute Wang Zhifan, showing that they attached great importance to this aspect of etiquette.
"The two sect masters, disciples, please don't be polite! I haven't been to Fengxue Tower yet, so I'm not a master..."
Wang Zhifan was a little speechless after being treated like this. Although he expressed his willingness to be the master of Fengxue Tower when he came here last time, it was obvious that he had not yet obtained this new identity. The intention of the Wuji Sect Master to let him take on this position was too obvious.
"Haha! Brother Wang, you are too polite! The abbot of Fachan Temple and the head of Liusha Sword Sect, Lu, have sent pigeons to inform me that I support you to take over Fengxue Tower. Jiang Qinshou of Duanqin Sect also expressed his no objection to this before leaving. If you are not the new owner of the building, who else can be?"
Xiong Tianli laughed loudly, and he seemed to be in a good mood.
"Since Sect Master Xiong has said so, I will obey your order."
Wang Zhifan came to Xiong Tianli to discuss this matter. Since everything is going well now, he doesn't need to say more, so he just went with the flow. After all, controlling the power of Fengxue Tower in Hutou Town is very important to his subsequent plans. There is no need to make things complicated if things can be simpler.
"Brother Wang, you are really a straightforward person! I wonder if there are any changes in your arrangements for Fengxue Tower? If you really want to be a hands-off manager as you said last time, I have an unwelcome request!"
Xiong Tianli's mouth curled up slightly when he talked about this, and it was obvious that he had some strange ideas.
"Master, please feel free to speak."
It was the first time that Wang Zhifan saw this middle-aged master in such an expression, and he was immediately curious.
"Ahem... It's like this."
Seeing Wang Zhifan so decisive, Master Xiong coughed twice a little embarrassedly, and then explained in detail:
"According to what Brother Wang said, all matters of Fengxue Tower, big and small, will be handed over to the people below. According to the discussions between me, the abbot, and Master Lu in recent days, only the Juyi Sect, where Master Yang was sacrificed in the battle to slay demons, is the most suitable to replace the original disciples of Fengxue Tower to manage Hutou Town, so that you, brother, can help them and deter those demon disciples who want to do something wrong to Juyi Sect...
But Juyi Sect itself does not have outstanding talents, and it may not be easy to manage the now chaotic Hutou Town, so I want to take this opportunity to let my Xun Er and Qing'er will also go there to experience the hardship of managing a sect, and help you, my brother, to better suppress the scoundrels from all sides...
I wonder if you agree with this, my brother? If it is inconvenient, it doesn't matter. It's just a sudden thought. I can arrange the staff of my sect myself, and I don't have any covetous intention..."
After saying this, Master Xiong not only made himself blush, but also the two senior disciples behind him, a man and a woman, widened their eyes and showed a little shock on their faces. It was obvious that they didn't know what their master was doing. He actually thought about other people's power in front of others, which made them feel very speechless.
"..."
Wang Zhifan didn't know how to answer for a while. Should he say that Master Xiong was honest and straightforward, or was he thick-skinned and fanciful? Which sect leader would say in front of others that he wants to place his own people in someone else's territory, especially his two most precious disciples, which makes it difficult for Wang Zhifan to understand his train of thought.
"What is his intention? Want to plan Fengxue Tower? Then why not just not drag me in after killing the demons... or does he have other intentions?"
After a little thought, Wang Zhifan still couldn't figure out what Sect Master Xiong wanted to do, but he thought that it didn't seem to be a bad thing to place the other party's two disciples in, because he didn't have much time to manage Fengxue Tower, and it was not bad to have young sect elites come to help, at least they could form different factions with those people from Juyi Sect, reducing the possibility of everyone colluding to deceive him.
And he knew the strength of these two people. They had achieved some success in the Wuji Jinshen Gong, which was very hard, and they were definitely much stronger than the disciples of Juyi Sect who didn't have any advanced skills.
"Brother Wang, it seems that I have been talking nonsense. Just treat what I said just now as a joke."
Seeing that Wang Zhifan in front of him had a strange expression and did not respond, Sect Master Xiong was embarrassed. He immediately tried to smooth things over and wanted to skip the matter.
But Wang Zhifan immediately waved his hand and said that he could accept it.
"Sect Master Xiong, I was just thinking about your suggestion, and I didn't mean to refuse it... I have seen your two disciples fight against the Demon Sect in the past. In terms of strength, they can definitely help stabilize the current situation of Fengxue Tower and Hutou Town. In terms of character, I can definitely trust them...
Then let's make it this way! Please prepare yourself and go to Fengxue Tower to take up your posts! You can take charge of all matters, big and small. I, as a hands-off manager, definitely don't know how to operate a sect as well as they do..."
After saying these words, Wang Zhifan saw a flash of surprise in Xiong Tianli's eyes, and the two disciples behind him were even more surprised and speechless, especially the Wuji Sect's eldest disciple who was about the same age as Wang Zhifan. He looked very energetic and suave in a black and gold-rimmed outfit. He couldn't help but step forward and express his opinions.
"Master! You didn't tell us about this! My junior sister Qing'er and I don't want to disobey your arrangement, but we want to stay in the sect and serve you!"
Sure enough, the Wuji Sect's eldest brother was very speechless about what Sect Master Xiong had done. They felt that the master wanted to drive them out of the mountains to venture out, but the place where the master arranged for them to train was too subtle, which made them very complicated and didn't know how to respond.
"Xun'er, Qing'er, this is indeed my fault. I didn't expect that Master Wang would come to visit today, otherwise I would have told you in detail in advance."
In front of Wang Zhifan, Xiong Tianli turned around and replied to the eldest disciple who came to his side, and at the same time glanced at the chief female disciple who came to the eldest disciple with an equally surprised expression.
"You have been practicing with me for more than ten years, and you have learned most of the skills. The rest is just a matter of time. Don't be impatient. But you must know that a true master cannot be achieved by practicing in seclusion!
What you lack now is practical experience! And a calm mind to fight against the hidden demons and evil people with ill intentions at any time! Hutou Town is a great place for training now!
If there is no master like Wang Louzhu sitting in, I will still hesitate whether to let you take this risk! But now that Wang Louzhu has agreed to take over Fengxue Tower, your safety will not be a problem. This risk is totally worth it!
And I can also make it clear that I do want Wang Louzhu to occasionally guide you to make progress. Selfish!
Although he is not much older than you, his skills have reached the pinnacle. Even the master is inferior to him. If he can give you some advice in his spare time, you will definitely benefit a lot!
Besides, Fengxue Tower really needs capable people to help now, otherwise the hidden dangers will be huge when the people from the Demon Sect infiltrate!
Therefore, you work under the Lord Wang for the sake of justice! Don't slack off! "
The words of this middle-aged man stunned the two disciples, letting them know that he wanted them to enter Fengxue Tower for a deep purpose. In addition to wanting to help Wang Zhifan, the hands-off boss, manage the chaotic situation in Hutou Town, he also wanted to get the guidance of Wang Zhifan, a great master, to make progress. It can be said that he has good intentions.
