…

…

In the central hall.

Lu Lingqiu dragged his weak body to the main seat under great pressure.

Hua Ling, who was standing behind him on the left, had a beautiful smile on her face and a faint murderous aura constantly exuding from her body.

On the seats on the left side of the long table, three girls, Xi Feiniao, Xia Lianxing and Bai Xue, sat in order;

On the right hand side, starting from the second seat, are the four guardian spirit envoys Mu Qing, Shui Lian, Yan Ye, and Sha Ling.

At this moment, less than half an hour had passed since Xi Feiniao proposed the "reward he wanted".

Words spoken are like spilled water. No matter what the conditions are, Lu Lingqiu, as the master, naturally cannot go back on his words and must agree.

But at that time, not only Hua Ling showed true murderous intent, but even the eyes of Mu Qing and Xia Lianxing were filled with unspeakable loss and grievance, which made him feel extremely troubled...

I had to think of a way immediately, and in a flash of inspiration, I issued the order to "call all the spirit envoys downstairs for a meeting."

This move effectively diverted the attention of Hua Ling and others.

Within a short time of tea, Lan Yurou specially called Yan Ye and Sha Ling, and now, both sides of the long table in the central hall were almost full.

Obviously, this is the largest spiritual envoy meeting held within Gucheng since the founding of Jinghua Palace.

Because the atmosphere was too serious, everyone did not dare to speak without permission and were all waiting for the host to speak.

The hall was filled with an extremely formal atmosphere, and the reserved third-generation envoys did not even dare to breathe in front of so many second-generation seniors.

Lu Lingqiu cleared his throat, and the eyes of all the spirit envoys immediately gathered together.

"Well, today's meeting mainly talks about three things."

His voice echoed in the empty hall.

"First, April has arrived.

There are only three days until the 20th annual "Flower God Festival" in Jinghua Palace.

At that time, all the second and third generation spirit envoys will gather in the ‘Sea of ​​Flowers’ to worship the Flower God.”

When the word "Flower God" was mentioned, Lu Lingqiu took a deep breath and felt an extremely strong feeling of depression in his heart.

After the evil curse form dissipated, some of the memories that he had originally recalled became blurred again under the influence of the "memory technique", but he completely knew the true identity of the "Flower God".

That was the first true god who existed on the Tiancang Continent in the ancient years.

Her name is,

Forest teak.

——

None of the women present made a sound, they just nodded and waited for the master's next words.

Lu Lingqiu adjusted his mood slightly and said slowly

"In addition, you will get a half-month vacation. During this period, you can relax, enjoy the delicious food and beautiful scenery in the Flower Palace, and learn from the seniors."

He said this to the three women on his left.

In Jinghua Palace, the spirit envoys often spend most of their time on separate missions, and there are not many opportunities to get together.

Therefore, if you want to get to know each other and cultivate relationships with the sisters and seniors you admire, the 20th annual "Flower God Festival" short holiday is a very good choice.

"Yes!" Xi Feiniao nodded to confirm.

"Understood, Master." Xia Lianxing responded briefly.

"Okay, Senior Lu." Bai Xue's voice was small.

"Yeah." Lu Lingqiu paused and continued, "The second thing is about everyone's rewards."

"In the future, every spirit envoy can come to me and ask for a reward after a successful breakthrough and the completion of the mission."

"Ah...reward..."

Xia Lianxing seemed to be very interested in this. In addition to Xi Feiniao, Yan Ye and other people who knew about it, other spirit envoys were also impressed.

"This is a mandatory reward.

So everyone must think about it in advance to avoid not knowing what they want.”

Lu Lingqiu looked at Xi Feiniao and took the opportunity to explain

"Asuka has just successfully transformed and made a um... quite reasonable request.

It's a pity that my cultivation level has dropped a lot due to some reasons, and now I can't withstand the erosion of the power of space. So regarding that matter, I will fulfill my promise to you after I go through the tribulation again."

"Eh——??!"

Xi Feiniao blinked his beautiful eyes full of surprise and asked curiously

"It's difficult, is the master about to survive the tribulation?! It's so amazing..."

In fact, she had already expected that her master's cultivation level must be above the middle stage of divine transformation, and he was definitely not far away from overcoming the tribulation.

And the "riding" she said is not simply "riding".

But as long as the master agrees, it’s not up to him to decide what will happen then?

The master will never break his promise.

The girl said "Uh-huh~" in her heart, and she nodded repeatedly with no trace of surprise on the surface.

"Okay, Master! I understand."

Lu Lingqiu gave her a "so good" look, and then looked to the other side.

After a moment of silence,

He suddenly whispered

"Finally, it's about the cancellation of the role of the 'Intelligence Envoy', who was guarding Yan Ye by the Fire Spirit."

When he said this, his expression was full of complexity and intolerance.

"Wha, what?!"

"Master...what's going on?"

In the central hall, the voices of the women screamed in surprise.

Not only Mu Qing and others were extremely shocked and surprised, but even Lan Yurou and Sha Ling could not believe it. They had never thought about the possibility that the duties of the "Second Generation Spiritual Envoy" would be revoked.

This matter is not only closely related to the second generation, but also indirectly related to the third generation envoys who have obtained functions or are about to obtain functions.

In the field, Yan Ye sat quietly on his fire spirit seat, lowered his head and remained silent.

Her long straight hair on both sides covered her cheeks, and the eyes of Mu Qing and others could not capture her expression at this moment.

The atmosphere instantly became depressing.

"I'm also sad to announce this. But I...have to do it."

Lu Lingqiu said with great confusion

"Xiao Ye, during this mission with me, she 'sacrificed' to protect me..."

As soon as these words came out, there was a complete silence in the venue.

Lu Lingqiu paused and continued to announce in a deep voice

"From now on, the responsibility of the 'information envoy' will be temporarily replaced by the 'message envoy'."

"Master...Master...?"

Xi Feiniao opened his small mouth, looked at his master with a blank expression, and then looked at Yan Ye who was sitting across the table.

"Well. Although Xiaoye is a Phoenix and a sacred beast, Suzaku, this incident made me realize that I need to make it clear to everyone in advance-"

Lu Lingqiu took a deep breath,

Then suddenly he stood up,

If you want to burst out all the tightness in your chest, say hoarsely

"No matter what the situation, no matter what task-"

"You all have no obligation to die for your master!!!"

When he talked about things related to Yan Ye again, his mood suddenly became extremely unstable.

"remember--

There is no such clause in the ‘Flower God Contract’.

There is no such thing as ‘you can lay down your life for your master’, there is no such thing, there is no such thing!!!”
