Just when Wen Daochen was feeling uneasy, Ye Wushang walked into the meeting hall.
He cleared his throat and said seriously, "Everyone, I have called you all here today because there is an important matter that needs to be discussed."
Upon hearing this, everyone focused their minds and listened attentively.
"Today, our superiors have given us an important mission, which is to explore the location of the top-grade spiritual mine controlled by the Western Ghost King."
As soon as Ye Wushang finished speaking, a burst of discussion suddenly broke out in the meeting hall.
The name Ximen Yan, the Ghost King of the West, is well-known throughout the wilderness.
He is one of the four ghost kings in the underworld. He is powerful, ruthless, and controls a large amount of resources and territories.
Among them, the three top-grade spiritual mines account for one-tenth of the spiritual mine production in the Great Wilderness, providing a steady stream of economic support for the expansion of Youdu Mountain's power.
Li Wanji knew very well that Jiuluo Nanxing issued such a task in order to seize the three top-grade spiritual mines in the hands of the Western Ghost King and cut off the chain of interests between Youdu Mountain and the many forces in the Demon Realm.
This would leave Cang Yuan with no money to continue hiring demon soldiers, thereby weakening the power of Youdu Mountain from the root and ending the battle in the underworld sooner.
However, it is not easy to explore the location of the top-grade spiritual mine in the hands of the Western Ghost King.
After all, there are nine springs in the underworld, namely Fengquan, Yaquan, Huangquan, Hanquan, Yinquan, Youquan, Xiaquan, Kuquan and Mingquan.
Each of the Nine Springs has its own master, and the Ximen family is the descendant of Taotie. They have been entrenched in the Fengquan area since ten thousand years ago. With the help of the evil energy of Fengquan, their family practices ghost skills, and their strength becomes more and more powerful.
The ghost kings of the Ximen family were all extremely cunning. They knew the importance of the top-grade spiritual mine, so they would definitely set up heavy defenses. It would undoubtedly be extremely difficult to sneak in and investigate.
Ye Wushang looked at the solemn expressions on everyone's faces and said in a deep voice, "I know this task is difficult, but we have to do it. Jiuluo River Lord has already issued a death order that the location of the three top-grade spiritual mines must be found within three months."
"Lord Ye, Wanji has something to say, but I don't know whether I should say it or not." Li Wanji stood up with a solemn expression.
Ye Wushang nodded, motioning for her to continue.
Li Wanji took a deep breath and said slowly: "The Ximen family has been operating in the underworld for many years, and their power is intertwined. It is not easy to quietly explore their top-grade spiritual mines. In my opinion, we may be able to start from the inside."
Ye Wushang raised his eyebrows slightly, obviously a little surprised by Li Wanji's idea. He asked, "Oh? Start from the inside? What do you think, Miss Wanji?"
Li Wanji smiled slightly, with a gleam of brilliance in her eyes: "We can try to incite some key figures in the Ximen family to rebel, and use them to explore the specific location of the spiritual mine, perhaps we can achieve twice the result with half the effort."
"Miss Wan Ji's idea makes sense. However, it is not easy to find such people, and we also need to ensure their loyalty and reliability."
Li Wanji nodded and said, "That's true. But this is a good breakthrough. As long as we look for it carefully, I believe we will find the right person."
"Miss Wanji is right." Ye Wushang praised, and then looked at Hongdie: "Miss Hongdie, listen to my order, this matter will be handed over to you. You must find a suitable candidate within one month and formulate a detailed rebellion plan."
Hongdie was about to stand up to receive the order, but Li Wanji stopped her.
"Lord Ye, the Ximen family is powerful after all. If Miss Hongdie is responsible for this matter alone, it will inevitably be difficult to carry out the task alone. Wan Ji is brave enough to go with Miss Hongdie and complete the task together."
She remembered that she had the "Xianyuan Map", which allowed her to accurately understand the internal layout and personnel relationships of the Western Ghost King's family, which was undoubtedly a huge advantage for the rebellion plan.
However, Ye Wushang did not intend to let her go. He frowned slightly, thinking about what reason to use to refuse.
Because Li Wanji is now the wife of the boss above. It would have been fine if he didn't know about her identity before, but how could he dare to give her such a risky task now?
After a moment, he smiled and said, "Miss Wanji, I have something more important for you to do. I will send Brother Wen and Miss Hongdie to help with the rebellion, so you don't have to worry about it."
Seeing Ye Wushang's firm attitude, Li Wanji felt a little unwilling in her heart, but she could not insist any longer.
She nodded and said, "In that case, Wan Ji will follow Lord Ye's arrangements."
Ye Wushang secretly breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that Li Wanji had no objection.
He turned to Wen Daochen and Hongdie and said, "Brother Wen, Miss Hongdie, the two of you should set off for Fengquan immediately. Be careful and don't alert the enemy."
Wen Daochen and Hong Die responded in unison and then left the meeting hall.
After the two left, Ye Wushang stopped smiling and said seriously, "Among the hostages rescued last time, there were several girls from the Feifei clan. Do you remember?"
Li Wanji nodded and said, "Remember, all the girls' clansmen have been abducted by the evil ghosts of Youdu Mountain and raised as furnaces. They are really pitiful."
Ye Wushang sighed and said, "Yes, they are the survivors of the Feifei clan. Brother Mo wanted to send them back to their hometown yesterday, but they refused to go back no matter what!"
"They claim that their hometown is no longer their home, and their family members are gone. Going back will only increase their sadness. They want to stay in the base, avenge their people, and do their part for peace in the wilderness."
When Li Wanji heard this, a hint of admiration flashed in her eyes.
"These girls are quite courageous. After going through such a change, they are still able to maintain such a strong character. It is rare."
Ye Wushang nodded and said, "Yes, although their cultivation is not high, they are determined and have great potential. I would like to ask Miss Wanji to train them. What do you think?"
"Don't worry, Lord Ye. I will arrange for someone to teach them how to practice. I will also let them participate in some of the daily affairs of the base so that they can gradually adapt to life here."
Ye Wushang was greatly relieved when he heard this: "Then I'll have to trouble Miss Wanji."
Li Wanji smiled slightly and said, "Master Ye, you are too polite. This is what I should do."
Afterwards, Ye Wushang discussed some other matters with everyone in the stronghold and then they dispersed.
On the way back, Tu Shanyi asked worriedly, "Wan Ji, why did you ask for permission to go to Fengquan just now? There are many dangers there, and I can't bear to let you take the risk."
"Xiao Yi, you don't have to worry. I'm not acting blindly and impulsively, but I'm well prepared. Besides, if I don't take the risk, others will. I have the ability, so I naturally want to do my best."
Tu Shanyi held her hand and said nervously, "I don't care about others, I only care about you. How can I feel at ease if you are hurt in the slightest?"
