"Predecessor, I truly wish to follow you!"
"Over these years, I have been living in the Descending Sect with unease... Moreover, to gain those people\'s trust, I have done many disgraceful things..."
"Only by following you and fighting against the Foreign Race together can I wash away the sins I once committed..."
As she spoke, Luo Shuying\'s emotions seemed somewhat downcast.
Su Xing sighed after hearing this.
How could he not understand Luo Shuying\'s thoughts?
She had joined the Descending Sect purely for the world of the Spirit Race.
But having joined the Descending Sect, she was not at liberty to her own will, and even though she was always looking for opportunities, the results were meager.
However, for the current Su Xing, the most important thing was stability, a steady approach... and the events unfolding in a direction that he could anticipate.
Once Luo Shuying defected from the Descending Sect to follow Su Xing, things might unfold in an unpredictable direction for Su Xing.
At that time, it would certainly do more harm than good for Su Xing.
But seeing Luo Shuying making such a sincere request before him, it was difficult for Su Xing to refuse directly.
After hesitating for a while, Su Xing persuaded,
"Little Shadow, currently for our great cause, the best choice for you is to stay within the Descending Sect!"
"If you could infiltrate the Descending Sect, your role could even rival mine!"
After hearing Su Xing\'s words, Luo Shuying was somewhat astonished.
So Su Xing explained,
"It\'s not easy to join the Descending Sect and gain its trust... "
"And you have been part of the Descending Sect for decades... having gained enough trust, it wouldn\'t be easy to insert another spy!"
"Moreover, staying in the Descending Sect and providing me with some necessary information would actually be more effective than defecting from the Descending Sect!"
After a lengthy and earnest persuasion, coupled with his talent as a master of success studies, Su Xing made Luo Shuying\'s eyes sparkled brighter and brighter.
In Su Xing\'s description, Luo Shuying was a warrior who, for the cause of fighting against the Foreign Race, had been undercover for decades, disregarding her own safety—a truly commendable person!
She played an irreplaceable role in the great cause against the Foreign Race!
Such depiction from Su Xing even made Luo Shuying feel somewhat ashamed.
For a moment, a doubt arose in Luo Shuying\'s heart: Could it be that over these years I have indeed played such a significant role?
Seeing Luo Shuying taking the bait, Su Xing continued to encourage,
"In that case, I\'ll arrange the following tasks for you... "
"I\'ve heard there\'s a Dragon Protector in the Descending Sect. Although he holds only the title of protector, his strength is unfathomable, his status even above the leaders of the three factions!"
"I need you to investigate the background of the Dragon Protector, and whether there exists someone stronger in the Descending Sect apart from the faction leaders?"
Pausing for a moment, Su Xing added,
"Of course, all of this must be predicated on your safety being the top priority!"
"Investigate only when convenient; it\'s best if you can find something, but it\'s fine if you can\'t..."
Upon hearing Su Xing\'s words, Luo Shuying nodded and memorized them word for word.
Su Xing\'s actions were casual.
With the foundation that Luo Shuying had built over decades in the Descending Sect, her image of steadfast loyalty wouldn\'t be easily doubted.
If she could uncover some information about the Dragon Protector and learn more about the deeper workings of the Descending Sect, that would indeed be excellent.
Lastly, Su Xing did not forget to make a promise to Luo Shuying.
"Little Shadow, work hard and in as short as one year or at most two or three years... by then you can end your undercover life and join the army that directly confronts the Foreign Race!"
"By that time, I will personally welcome you back and cleanse away the dust of travel!"
Upon hearing Su Xing\'s words, Luo Shuying\'s heart surged with excitement.
Su Xing then took his leave from Luo Shuying; they did not linger long, just agreed upon the next meeting time and place.
After leaving the mountain, Su Xing concealed his tracks.
He then expertly engaged in Sword Flight, circling around half of Great Xia Country.
Combining journeys by water, land, and air, he obscured his movements to utmost ambiguity.
Eventually, Su Xing circled a long route before finally returning to Kyoto and entering the Spirit Field Cave.
"Hmm, not bad, with the real Condensing Spirit Wood, I can now refine two batches of Soul Condensing Pills..."
Su Xing looked at the Condensing Spirit Wood before him and nodded slightly, then took out a small knife and scraped some powder off the wood.
Thereafter, Su Xing spent half a day to refine several batches of Soul Condensing Pills.
Naturally, these were prepared for Luo Shuying\'s breakthrough to legendary status later on.
After refining the Soul Condensing Pills, Su Xing continued to make Fasting Pills.
Soon, a week went by...
In just one week\'s time, Su Xing had refined six thousand Fasting Pills.
The process of making Fasting Pills was similar to that of the Nourishing Face Pill.
In two months\' time, Su Xing should be able to refine about fifty thousand Fasting Pills, by then he could auction for the second-tier alloy metal mine copy from the hands of the Great Xia Military.
On November 11th, Jin Congxue was busy with affairs and was not staying in the villa.
Thus, after Su Xing disguised himself and concealed his aura, he fetched the new week\'s goods from the villa and then returned to the Spirit Field Cave.
The new week\'s goods provided nearly one hundred million energy points for Su Xing, bringing his total energy to around one billion, five hundred and fifty million.
"It\'s time to start a new round of simulation..."
Su Xing murmured,
"This time, I\'ll continue improving my understanding of the Earth Sword and strive to advance my Body Refinement Cultivation Level as much as possible!"
