Chapter 147: Growing Bigger and Stronger, Creating New Glory!
"Buzzing!"
The violent aura caused the space to tremble continuously, and the atmosphere in the main hall instantly became as heavy and cold as if it had been filled with ink, even the light passing through was slightly distorted.
"Master has become stronger again!" Aruheng, standing to the side, felt the aura emanating from his master, his eyes filled with surprise. This aura contained a unique meaning.
"Hey hey hey, Makino, you still get excited so easily." Hu Jie's eyes narrowed, but his expression remained unchanged as he smiled and pointed at Makino.
The next moment, under Mu Ye's deep gaze, Hu Jie clasped his hands together, his thick fingers grinding hard, and the purple pollen in his palm instantly turned into dust, emitting a low moan.
"Whoosh!" Hu Jie opened his palm and blew gently, and the purple powder floated in the air, scattering in all directions with a gust of wind.
Upon seeing this, the seriousness between Makino's brows lessened, and his violent aura subsided.
As the dust settled, the heavy atmosphere in the room gradually returned to normal, like a light rain falling.
"You're really not here to cause trouble?" Mu Ye raised an eyebrow and asked. "But I did... take something from your Tang Clan."
"Hey! How can you call things from the Soul Master world 'take'? Treasures belong to the capable, right?" Hu Jie said with a smile, waving his hand dismissively.
The Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well belongs to the Tang Sect, not to Hu Jie.
Moreover, he had long disliked those immortal herbs inside the Yin-Yang Well.
Despite being weak, he is incredibly arrogant, constantly bringing up the Spirit Ice Douluo from ten thousand years ago and the Sea God Tang San from twenty thousand years ago, using their past relationship to show off.
"So what are you here for? Just say what's on your mind. There are no outsiders here," Makino said calmly, but his tone was noticeably more pleasant.
Since Hu Jie crushed the pollen, it proves that he is not representing the Tang Sect. After all, he is also cultivating the techniques of his Body Sect and has a Body Martial Soul.
"As I said before, I'll help you solve your problem, and then see what happens to your two disciples... see if they have the ability to revive the Body Sect."
Hu Jie's eyes flickered as he met Mu Ye's gaze and spoke slowly.
"Now I see, this big oaf's talent is no less than yours, and your other little disciple surprises me even more, even shocks me." Before Mu Ye could speak, Hu Jie continued, his tone full of admiration.
Jiang Xiu became famous after his battle in Tianhai, and the news spread throughout the entire Federation.
"Huh?" Aruheng was listening when he suddenly realized he had been tagged. He couldn't help but mutter to himself, "You're the big oaf, your whole family are big idiots."
"Hmph! Even after you leave, I can still manage the Body Sect well," Mu Ye snorted, a slight upturn at the corner of his mouth, and said arrogantly, "See this street outside? It's all Body Sect."
"As for Aheng and Xiaoxiu, there's no need to say more; I firmly believe they can do it."
Makino said firmly, but a slight doubt arose in his heart.
How does Hu Jie know about Xiao Xiu? And he even dares to assert that Xiao Xiu is stronger than Aruheng, but Xiao Xiu has clearly never shown his strength outside.
Upon hearing this, Aruheng, who was standing to the side, straightened his chest slightly.
"I naturally believe that," Hu Jie nodded slightly, then leaned forward and pressed on, "But have you considered making the Body Sect even stronger?"
"What do you mean by that?" Makino's expression froze for a moment, then his expression became serious.
"Think about it, right now I'm dealing in weapons at the Tang Sect, Elder Han is dealing in souls at the Spirit Pagoda, and you're holding fast to the Body Sect. Heaven has also given you two good disciples. Let's join forces and make the Body Sect bigger and stronger, creating new glories!"
"There are only a few major powers in the world, and our Body Sect is almost able to encompass them all."
Without further hesitation, Hu Jie declared with increasing fervor, "Let us learn from the strengths of others and create the glory of our sect!"
As soon as Hu Jie finished speaking, Mu Ye's eyes flashed with light, and his breathing became a little heavier, but he did not reply immediately, only his gaze kept changing.
Last time, some of their Body Sect's experts left to join other major forces. If they can make good use of these opportunities as Hu Jie suggested, their Body Sect will definitely soar to new heights.
Moreover, they also have the Western Legion and the Blacksmith Association, both of which are external allies of their Body Sect.
At this moment, Aruheng scratched his head and asked cautiously, "What about the Temple of War...?"
The Temple of War is by no means weak, and its members are all high-end combatants, including eighteen War Gods. It is also known as the Federation's sharpest sword.
"This..." Hu Jie paused, looking at Aruheng with annoyance, "What are you good for? Are you just a big guy for nothing? Why don't you go to the Temple of War God and marry a female War God?"
"Huh? Huh? Me?" Aruheng was taken aback, pointing at herself in confusion, her face even turning slightly red.
This elder is so unreliable, how could he possibly marry the Goddess of War from the Temple of War?
"Alright." Makino waved his hand to interrupt the two, looking directly at Hu Jie: "What exactly do you want to do, and how much of what you said is true?"
"The Body Sect nurtured me back then, and I will naturally repay them if I have the chance. As for the reason, it is probably because I have a deep love for the sect." Hu Jie said with a melancholy look in his eyes and a sigh.
Mu Ye watched Hu Jie's performance quietly. He knew that this guy had feelings for the Body Sect, but they were not pure. He should only believe a fraction of what Hu Jie said; believing any more would be a sign of distrust in Hu Jie's character.
"Ahem... I'm being sincere this time. Whether you believe me or not, we'll prove it with facts in the future." Hu Jie seemed uncomfortable under Mu Ye's gaze, so he coughed and said.
"This kid is getting harder and harder to fool," Hu Jie muttered to himself.
The reason he came to the Body Sect this time was that what he said before was true, but in addition to wanting to help the Body Sect to revive, he also wanted to find a safe place for himself to retire.
Relying solely on the Tang Sect is not enough. Hu Jie has never been one to act alone, especially when he sees the Body Sect thriving.
"Alright, here's an opportunity. Tell me the location of your Tang Clan headquarters' treasure vault, and I'll believe you." Mu Ye withdrew his gaze and crossed his arms.
"Huh? I'm telling you, don't do anything reckless!" Upon hearing this, Hu Jie's teacup trembled as he picked it up, and he quickly warned him.
"The Tang Sect headquarters is located at the very bottom of Shrek City, equipped with the most advanced soul guidance monitoring technology. It can be said to be one of the safest places on the entire continent. It is an impregnable fortress that you cannot dig a tunnel into."
"The safest place underground..." Aruheng murmured to himself, then his eyes lit up slightly as if he had just thought of something. "If we blow it up from the surface, could we reach the Tang Clan headquarters?"
"..." A hint of helplessness appeared on Hu Jie's lips. "You think you can just blow it up like that? The Tang Sect headquarters is in Shrek City. Shrek City is such a safe place, how could there possibly be any artillery shells there? Do you really think Shrek Academy is a pushover?"
"Besides, if a shell could actually blow through the Tang Sect headquarters, Shrek Academy would also be blown to smithereens... No, that's impossible."
Hu Jie shook his head; he had almost been tricked by Mu Ye's two disciples.
These two are truly remarkable; one dares to dream, and the other dares to dream even more.
"Hmph, haven't you heard that there's always a way out? The ancestral craftsmanship is in my hands. If I want to dig, I can go anywhere."
"Back then, Mingde Hall was also known as the strongest defense, but it was still breached by that ancestor."
Knowing that Hu Jie was telling the truth, Mu Ye still retorted.
However, the treasure trove that the Tang Clan had accumulated over so many years of arms dealing was truly tempting to him.
There was no other way; their Body Sect was truly terrified of being poor.
"You can forget about the treasure vault, but you can 'borrow' some things from that place when the security is a bit weaker in the future." Hu Jie said slowly, which made Mu Ye's eyes light up slightly.
He knew perfectly well what the treasure land Hu Jie was referring to was the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Eye, which contained the immortal herbs.
"That's good, you pass." Mu Ye said calmly, "I'll contact my martial uncle in a few days so we can finalize the details."
Although the Body Sect is steadily rising, it is still far behind other major powers. With Hu Jie, a level 98 Super Douluo, secretly helping it, its foundation can be improved significantly.
After all, for a sect to become powerful, it needs not only disciples but also strong individuals to protect and support it.
His original sect currently lacks both.
"No problem." Seeing Makino agree, Hu Jie smiled again.
Looking at Makino, Hu Jie felt a pang of emotion and reminiscence; Makino truly resembled his mother…
"Master Mu."
Just then, a clear, cold female voice rang out from the courtyard outside the main hall, followed by the sound of footsteps.
With a thought, Mu Ye and Hu Jie stood up at the same time and walked out of the main hall.
"Lord Leng, it's been a long time." Mu Ye greeted the elegant woman in red robes who was walking towards him with a slight bow and a smile.
"Greetings, Tower Master Leng." Upon seeing the newcomer, Hu Jie's eyes flashed with understanding, and he smiled as he spoke.
"It has indeed been a long time. I didn't expect to see Hall Master Hu here as well." Leng Yaozhu's gaze fell on Hu Jie, her eyebrows slightly raised, and a look of surprise appeared in her beautiful eyes.
She had heard a little about what happened at the Body Sect back then. This Smiling Douluo had joined the Tang Sect, and now he was actually appearing at the Body Sect. Could it be...?
"Lord Leng, please come inside." Before Leng Yaozhu could think further, Mu Ye pointed to the main hall and invited her in.
"It's almost time. I still have some things to take care of. You two chat first, goodbye." Hu Jie said with a smile, and after bidding farewell to the two, he walked out of the Body Sect.
Mu Ye and Leng Yaozhu clearly had important matters to discuss, and through some channels, he also knew that the Body Sect and Leng Yaozhu had joined forces.
Therefore, it is best for him to avoid it at this time.
After leaving the Body Sect, Hu Jie looked back at the evergreen tree on the vermilion gate of the Body Sect, his eyes gleaming.
"Will it be a fleeting moment, or a meteoric rise? Makino, I hope that this time, as always, I won't misjudge it."
He never does things on a whim.
"But why do that brat Aruheng's words keep making this hall master uneasy...?"
"Could the Tang Sect headquarters really be bombed?"
Hu Jie frowned slightly, but then shook his head and walked away into the distance.
If the Tang Sect is bombed, wouldn't Shrek Academy also be wiped out?
So he was just worrying unnecessarily...
definitely is!
