Chapter 510: Persuade, Persuade Hard!
Chapter 510: Persuade, Persuade Hard!
Five months had flown by, and Wu Yong had now become a Fifth-Rank Spirit Summoner. He had joined the Salvation Society five months ago.
After experiencing the joy of being a powerhouse within the Salvation Society, he had fully devoted himself to the responsibility of saving the world.
He now deeply detested the Umbrella Corporation, which he once admired. Although the Umbrella Corporation had made life better for ordinary people, it had cut off the path to the extraordinary, leaving everyone without any means of self-protection and reliant on the corporation’s protection.
After tasting the beauty of power, Wu Yong was determined to think for himself.
Therefore, he was determined to overthrow the Umbrella Corporation and revitalize the Spirit Summoner system, so that everyone could be like dragons, each possessing their own spirit.
Now, the final step was to rescue the senior practitioners who had sealed themselves in the Heaven-Piercing Pavilion.
According to the Salvation Society, the Umbrella Corporation had once swept through the land, even orchestrating the Baijingzhou tragedy, all to defame the legitimacy of the imperial court and noble families. Fortunately, many senior practitioners had fought to the death to protect the Heaven-Piercing Pavilion, the legacy of the Spirit Summoners, and were eventually forced to seal themselves inside.
As for the demons and the demonic calamity? They didn’t exist; it was all fabricated by the Umbrella Corporation to fuel their ambition of unification.
After learning the 'truth' from the Salvation Society, Wu Yong was naturally indignant. At that moment, he immediately branded the Umbrella Corporation as the embodiment of evil, believing that only by eradicating the corporation could peace be restored to the world.
He wasn’t worried about the Salvation Society deceiving him. He owed his strength as a Fifth-Rank Spirit Summoner to the society’s cultivation. They had provided him with unlimited resources and secret techniques and sent him on various trials, which had led to his current strength.
"I believe the Umbrella Corporation has already set up an ambush in Central Source Province, aiming to wipe out our Salvation Society. Xiao Yong, with your current strength, you should be able to hold them off for a while. I hope you can contribute to our great cause of salvation," said Song Shan, the head of the Salvation Society in Taiqian Province, with a hopeful tone.
Wu Yong hesitated. This meant he had to stay behind and cover their retreat, but he really wanted to enter the Heaven-Piercing Pavilion.
After all, the Heaven-Piercing Pavilion was the sacred ground of the Spirit Summoners. But thinking of all the cultivation and benefits he had received from President Song, he gritted his teeth and said, "Alright, I will complete the mission!"
He wasn’t worried about his life. The Umbrella Corporation’s enforcers and security personnel were just ordinary people. Although they had firearms, his strength was more than enough to ignore them, and he could even counter-kill them if necessary.
He didn’t believe a group of ordinary people could harm him.
He only felt regret at not being able to enter the sacred ground of the Spirit Summoners. But the thought of rescuing the senior practitioners who had fought to the death against the Umbrella Corporation made it worthwhile.
"I knew I hadn’t misjudged you. After we rescue the senior practitioners this time, I will officially take you as my disciple, and you will become the young head of the Salvation Society in Taiqian Province," Song Shan said, skilled at painting a rosy picture.
Hearing this, Wu Yong was shocked. He knew that President Song valued him, but he hadn’t expected such high regard, to the point of taking him as a disciple and passing on his position.
"President, rest assured, I will definitely hold off those lackeys of the Umbrella Corporation!" Wu Yong said firmly.
This scene felt familiar to Song Shan. He quickly realized that they had similarly cursed the court in the past.
He never thought that times would change, and there would still be such fools.
They knew the truth of the past, of course. It was merely used to persuade the younger generation or some uninformed Spirit Summoners.
Naturally, they needed to strike against their enemies.
"Good, very good. With your words, I am at ease," Song Shan could only confirm that the investment he had made over the past five months was worth it.
Song Shan was also extremely wary of Wu Yong’s rapid advancement. Such a genius, once fully grown, would definitely affect his power.
In less than half a year, Wu Yong had become a Fifth-Rank Spirit Summoner, while he himself was only a Sixth-Rank.
Fortunately, he wasn’t foolish and hadn’t done anything unreasonable. Instead, he had used emotional and logical persuasion to convince Wu Yong to cover their retreat.
This assault by the Umbrella Corporation is no easy feat, given the casualties are bound to be severe.
Do you really think that the ordinary enforcers are the full strength of the Umbrella Corporation?
That’s impossible. Back then, he had seen a Ninth-Rank Spirit Summoner turned into minced Meat by the guns of the Umbrella Corporation, the death was so tragic.
But the ordinary enforcers and security personnel are merely for maintaining order. Wu Yong had only been a Spirit Summoner for five months, what could they possibly know?
Most of them are usually busy with cultivation and small tasks like guarding a factory or a shop, never having faced the real armed personnel of the Umbrella Corporation, so it's impossible for them to know its true strength.
Only the older generation of Spirit Summoners knows how terrifying the Umbrella Corporation is.
If it weren’t for the Umbrella Corporation stripping them of their rights, making them equal to ordinary people, they would have surrendered long ago, how could they possibly resist?
They can yield in terms of their status, but must never yield in terms of benefits, making them equal to ordinary people, who would they exploit then?
The Spirit Summoners demand privileges and benefits, unfortunately, the Umbrella Corporation will not agree.
"President, what should we do next? All flights and high-speed trains have been restricted. I can travel with my ID, but I'm afraid you can’t." Wu Yong said hesitantly.
Most members of the Salvation Society are blacklisted, only the new generation of Spirit Summoners like Wu Yong, who has a registration with the Umbrella Corporation, can enjoy various social benefits.
Without such an identity, he couldn’t even apply for a job as a security guard at a factory.
But the people of the Salvation Society are different; they are rats in the sewers, how could they possibly have an ID? To say traveling is inconvenient is an understatement; even communication, meals, and accommodations are extremely inconvenient.
"Relax, we have ways." Song Shan’s tone was filled with pride, as if he were reminiscing the old days.
Back then, they relied on shouting for communication, walking for travel, and dogs for security, the wilderness was a matter of survival, but thinking of the inheritance in the Heaven-Piercing Pavilion, their hearts burned with passion.
So this minor difficulty can be overcome.
"But since you can take a plane, you can go first and scout for the Salvation Society, and then we can further plan what to do after we arrive." Song Shan had a stroke of inspiration, finding Wu Yong indeed useful, not only able to draw fire in Zhongyuan Province, but also capable of scouting ahead.
If it weren’t for his talent affecting his status, he might be a little reluctant to part with it.
After all, it’s not easy to find such a loyal and obedient person.
"President, don’t worry, over the years I have saved a bit, buying a ticket to Zhongyuan Province is enough." Wu Yong said somewhat pained.
He originally planned to take the train, although it would take longer, at least it was cheaper, but upon hearing Song Shan’s suggestion of flying, he could only bite the bullet and agree.
"Very well, after this matter is resolved, the Salvation Society will certainly compensate you well." Song Shan drew another grand picture, not believing Wu Yong could return alive, so he hadn’t thought of travel expenses; this wasn’t a waste, making him pay for his own death trip was fine.
"Thank you, President, I will book the ticket first!" Wu Yong’s expression was somewhat agitated, although he didn’t know what the compensation was, but given the Salvation Society’s past generosity, he felt it wouldn’t be lacking. Plus, he was the future head of the Salvation Society in Taiqian Province and the President’s disciple, these identities combined, were definitely a good thing.
Who knows, maybe there are powerful secret techniques, or even some heavenly treasures. Of course, he hoped for something that could best utilize the Yuanling Heyifayi technique.
