Chapter 33 Secret News
Because of the secrets of Long Wei, Mu Qingtian and Yang Xiao had already left early when Mu Qingtian and Yang Xiao were talking about cooperation.
Yang Xiao followed Mu Qingtian to an ancient study room. Mu Qingtian didn't know what method he used. Yang Xiao could feel that the surrounding environment had been completely isolated. Yang Xiao had a premonition that the next conversation might involve many secrets.
"My friend Yang, I hope you know that next, our conversation may involve some important secrets. So, I hope that no matter whether you are willing to cooperate with our Long Guard, you will not leak these news. This will not benefit you or our Long Guard."
Seeing Yang Xiao nodding solemnly, Mu Qingtian continued to speak:
"About ten years ago, we discovered a ruin of ancient martial arts civilization deep in the Kunlun Mountains. From where we started, we sent three expeditions to explore the ruins. Unfortunately, all three explorations ended in failure. None of the three expeditions could enter the core area of the ruins, and there were still heavy casualties."
"Old Long, I want to ask, do you include you when you say 'we'?" Yang Xiao asked.
"No, because I have the power, according to the Long Guard's regulations, I cannot go to investigate in person." Mu Qingtian did not hide anything.
"Since that ruins are so dangerous, why do you still have to explore it so persistently?" Yang Xiao continued to ask.
"Young Xiaoyou, you should know that the Xia Kingdom is rising rapidly in this world. Because of this, we need to continuously strengthen ourselves, whether it is national strength, military strength, or the strength of the strong, we need to be strengthened. Only in this way can we ensure that the Xia Kingdom is prosperous and safe under the eyes of the strong enemy, and prosperity and strength. I, I, have only one long-cherished wish, that is, in my lifetime, I will see the Xia Kingdom become the most powerful country in the world, no doubt about it."
At the end, Mu Qingtian's tone became loud and excited.
Yang Xiao nodded silently. In his previous life, he had no idea about the country or patriotism. If he had any similar emotions, it should be his attachment and love for his master. Although the two seem to be a little different, they are essentially people's sense of belonging and honor for the collective.
Yang Xiao can realize from the memories of his predecessors and his life experiences in this world during this period that the people of Xia Kingdom love their motherland very much. This is also the strongest driving force for Xia Kingdom to be able to transform from a backward and poor country into a first-class country in the past century.
From Mu Qingtian's words and expressions, Yang Xiao could see that Mu Qingtian loved this disciple who gave birth to him from the bottom of his heart. He and Long Wei will both protect Xia Kingdom and regard it as their mission and honor.
Although Yang Xiao has not been able to fully understand this emotion, he can feel that this strong patriotic emotion contains huge spiritual power.
Seeing Yang Xiao’s thoughtful look, Mu Qingtian knew that his words had already touched the young man. So he continued:
"But in fact, the strength of the Dragon Guard has begun to decline rapidly. Especially in recent years, the fall of the older generation of powerful people in the Xia Kingdom has successively fallen. The new generation of strong people has not yet grown up, and the situation has become increasingly serious. So I attach great importance to this ancient martial arts civilization ruins hidden deep in the Kunlun Mountains. I hope we can gain something from it, so as to help the new generation of strong people in the Xia Kingdom grow rapidly."
At this point, Yang Xiao had already guessed Mu Qingtian’s true intention: “So, Long, I hoped that I would participate in the exploration of this ancient martial arts ruins, right?”
"That's true! You who have the inheritance of ancient martial arts should be able to play a crucial role in your actions! Our previous exploration actions were all defeated by various formations, mechanisms and traps in the ruins." Mu Qingtian nodded and replied.
"Old Long, please forgive me for being rude. I still want to ask. Since it is cooperation, what can I get from it?" Yang Xiao asked very directly.
Mu Qingtian was not surprised by Yang Xiao's words. He smiled and said, "Long Guard's friendship!"
"Longwei's friendship?"
"Yes! As long as you agree to join this operation, I will immediately order to remove the surveillance of Longwei on you. From now on, as long as you do not do evil, connect with foreign enemies and endanger national security, Longwei will not monitor you in any form, and you will be completely free."
Mu Qingtian paused and said, "You will also obtain the identity of Dragon Guard's special consultant. This identity should help you save a lot of trouble! Don't worry, this identity will not bring you any shackles. Apart from this action, you don't need to do anything for Dragon Guard." Mu Qingtian took out his bargaining chips.
After hearing this, Yang Xiao was already very satisfied. In fact, even if Mu Qingtian did not give these chips, Yang Xiao would join the action. In fact, Yang Xiao also had a great interest in the so-called ancient martial civilization.
He felt that there should have been cultivators in this world, but for some reason, cultivators in this world disappeared in the long river of time.
Yang Xiao is 70% sure that the so-called ancient martial arts civilization should be created by cultivators. Participating in this action will also help Yang Xiao understand the true face of the world.
"Old Long, I agree to join this action. But before that, you need to give me some time. My strength is still too weak now, and I need to find a secret place to improve my strength. If I create a 'resonance of heaven and earth' in Donghai City, I believe Longwei doesn't want to see it."
Yang Xiao nodded and agreed to Mu Qingtian, and also put forward his own conditions.
Seeing Yang Xiao nodding, Mu Qingtian was also very happy and said with a laugh: "Hahaha, that's of course. In fact, this manor is a good choice. As long as you want, I will tell Qing'er that you will provide you with a residence here."
"Then it's time for Long to grow old." Yang Xiao also likes the environment here, so he naturally won't refuse.
"I believe Qing'er will welcome you very much. But I want to remind you not to be rushing to achieve success and resonate with heaven and earth. Although it can provide the efficiency of cultivation, it is also an extremely dangerous thing." Mu Qingtian reminded.
Speaking of this, Yang Xiao suddenly remembered a doubt in his heart, so he asked: "Old Long, when I practice, I need to absorb a special energy called 'spiritual energy' from the surrounding environment. But for some reason, when I am not in the state of practicing, it is difficult to feel the existence of spiritual energy. But once I start practicing, it will trigger a tide of spiritual energy."
"Real energy? What you are talking about should be the power of the origin, right? That night you resonated with the heaven and earth because you gathered too much power of the origin." Mu Qingtian explained.
"The power of the origin? Well, I think we should be talking about the same energy, but the name is different." Yang Xiao nodded.
"My friend Yang, the power of the origin is the foundation of this world. Although I don't know how you brought so many powers of the origin together, I still want to remind you that you can absorb the power of the origin, but you must not force it to gather. Otherwise, the tide that triggers the power of the origin will be small. If it causes a big explosion, it will be a terrible disaster. This kind of thing is not without precedent. You should have heard of the 'Tungus Big Bang'?"
Mu Qingtian warned with a solemn expression.
"Tungus Big Bang..."
