The crisis was approaching, and gathering the Fourteen Sons of Vast Sky became a top priority.
Now only Huang Can and Hu Linye were missing - these were all the living Saintly Fourteen Sons of Vast Sky.
Huang Can said he wanted to think it over for a while longer.
But now there was no time left for him to consider.
Chen Xia, Chi Yu, Emperor Capital, Qiu Li, Li Yang, Li Yue and Jia Bai - all seven of them sat in front of him, not saying much, just sitting with arms crossed and serious expressions.
"No rush, take your time thinking it over. We'll wait for you to make up your mind," Chen Xia said.
"No hurry, take your time. I can help loosen you up a bit."
"Joining the current Blue Sky Sword Sea has no downsides... only benefits. Brother Huang Can might as well give it a try."
"Mm, don't overthink it. Just join."
"As I said before, if you join, you'll get the position of Grand Commander of Azure Heaven Sword Sea."
"Uncle Huang Can, why think so much about a lifetime? Some things you just have to do without hesitation."
"Well, look at me and you'll understand whether you should join or not..."
"You wretched beast, shut up!" Emperor Capital said, speaking for the second time.
"Mind your manners," Chen Xia frowned.
"Beloved beast, speak not." Emperor Capital had clearly found a loophole in the language.
Chen Xia smiled at Huang Can again, "It's fine, see how loving and harmonious we all are?"
Huang Can glanced at Jia Bai, not really feeling the harmony.
But he didn't dare refuse.
In this situation, even the Great Saint wouldn't dare refuse.
So he changed the subject and asked,
"Have you contacted Hu Linye yet?"
"Not yet, but soon," Chen Xia replied.
"Then I'll join after Hu Linye joins you," Huang Can quickly said.
"If you join, Hu Linye naturally won't be able to escape either," Chen Xia stated bluntly.
Silence fell again.
"Can I... can I say no?" Huang Can asked hesitantly.
"You can." Chen Xia nodded expressionlessly, then stepped back and said,
"Close the door..."
The entire universe was covered in thick black mist.
"Release the dogs!"
"Damn it, you're asking for trouble!" Emperor Capital suddenly jumped out, his expression angry as he cursed.
"Good dog." Qiu Li nodded in agreement.
So you can't blame Emperor Capital for his poor manners, as Chen Xia the leader wasn't much better, being able to shout "close the door and release the dogs". He really understood the spirit of entertainment.
Huang Can hurriedly waved his hands, "No, no, I didn't mean to fight..."
"I damn well want to fight you!" Emperor Capital roared, exuding domineering aura.
This sentence left Huang Can truly speechless.
Jia Bai whimpered softly, remembering the days when he was chased and beaten by Emperor Capital.
"I'll join, I'll join, okay? If you had acted earlier, I would have joined earlier," Huang Can said helplessly, having no choice but to agree.
Emperor Capital quickly straightened up, his angry expression gone, smiling gently at Huang Can and nodding,
"Welcome."
After saying this, he turned to Chen Xia and asked,
"Brother Chen, am I well-mannered now?"
"Able to be both firm and flexible," Chen Xia evaluated.
That was quite high praise.
Emperor Capital smiled with satisfaction, having completed his mission. He stepped back, glancing at Qiu Li with disdain, and said,
"I've now become Brother Chen's second brain, while you've made no progress. As your former partner, I'm very disappointed."
"You, a second brain? You're really flattering yourself," Qiu Li frowned.
"Jealousy, visible jealousy, tsk tsk." Emperor Capital shook his head disdainfully.
"Whatever you say." Qiu Li rolled his eyes, not wanting to waste words on this person.
As the two continued to bicker,
Chen Xia had already started asking Huang Can for information about Hu Linye.
Huang Can had some clues, but not many. He said,
"Hu Linye lives in seclusion among mortals, sometimes as a mountain villager, sometimes as a merchant or official. There's no fixed pattern, I can't say for sure where he is."
"I see." Chen Xia nodded, deciding to use the Time Dao to slowly search for him. At the same time, he issued another order.
Cultivation.
All the cultivators in the team now had to seize the time to cultivate, striving to advance further and improve their battle power, so they would have more strength when the so-called dark invasion came.
They could practice enlightenment, combat, comprehension of divine abilities and other skills, exchanging and learning from each other.
Chen Xia could also provide them with pills - all top-grade medicines that could help them better comprehend the Dao.
This was the first tangible benefit they experienced from joining the team.
Under this refinement,
Emperor Capital made progress the fastest. His Star Dao entered a new stage, no longer limited to controlling stars, but now able to create stars.
His realm also advanced a level, making him one of the top-tier Saints.
This really inflated Emperor Capital's ego. For days he walked around with his hands on his hips, just short of pacing back and forth in front of Qiu Li.
Next was Li Yang, who made progress. His Dao of Great Sun deepened, the illusory great sun he could manifest expanded by 30%, and its killing power increased.
Eight Saints were thus cooped up in the small room.
Their cultivation levels slowly rose with time.
Before they knew it,
A thousand years had passed.
