Chronicles of Celestial Origins

Chapter 767 Imminent (Part 2)

Tang Ning did not go back to his room and went straight out of the column station. He did not know when the selection of disciples from each sect would begin. Time was running out. He had to find Bai Jintang as soon as possible and ask for his help.

The Fourth Army Corps is currently stationed in Yuanxian County, and he can only try his luck there.

After leaving the column station, he fled all the way to "Qinghuali City", found a Wutongge store, and booked a boat ticket to Yuanxian County.

The next day, Tang Ning boarded the Tianling Ship and traveled for dozens of days to Yuanxian County, where the Fourth Army Corps and Three Columns were stationed.

In front of the majestic and majestic hall, there are two monks standing on duty.

Tang Ning escaped from the light and bowed her head: "Fellow Taoists, may I ask if this is a meeting hall with three columns and seven joints?"

"That's right, who is the fellow Taoist?" asked a man on the left.

"I am a monk from the 23rd Legion. I am here to look for a senior. I have something important to ask for. May I ask if Senior Bai Jintang is still in the Seventh Alliance?"

"Bai Jintang?" The two looked at each other and shook their heads: "Never heard of it."

Tangning felt a chill when she heard this, and asked, "He was originally the captain of the Seventh Alliance, and was later demoted to the vice-captain. Don't the two fellow Taoists not know at all?"

One person replied: "During the years when the Fourth Army fought against the Mubei Demon, there were several major personnel adjustments due to heavy casualties. The two of us were transferred later to supplement the troops. I have never heard of the name of Senior Bai Jingtang. The current deputy captain of the unit is named Li Mingxin.”

Tangning's full expectations were dashed, and what he was most worried about came to light.

The war between the Qingzhou Alliance Army and the Mubei Demons has lasted for so long, and the casualties and casualties of each legion have been extremely frequent. Not to mention others, even he himself has changed teams several times.

For so many years, there was no news exchange between him and Bai Jintang, and he didn't even know whether he was dead or alive. The Three Columns and Seven Alliances were his last hope.

Now that this hope failed, he felt at a loss for a while.

It took several months to go from Fenghua City to Yuanxian County. During this period, the headquarters might have completed the selection of sect personnel.

He traveled thousands of miles back and forth, and now even this last glimmer of hope has been shattered.

"Thank you, fellow Taoist, for letting me know." Tang Ning thanked him. He took off and walked for a while, then suddenly turned back to the front of the palace.

"Why is fellow Taoist back again? What else is going on?" The disciples on duty in front of the hall asked in confusion when they saw him turning back.

"I have something to ask you. I would like to ask two fellow Taoists for advice. I hope you can tell me." Tangning turned his hand and took out several high-grade spiritual stones and handed them to them. He was really not willing to go to such a waste.

The two looked at each other and took the spirit stone in his hand: "Fellow Taoist, you are too polite. We are all brothers in the Allied Forces. If you have any questions, just ask."

"May I ask these two fellow Taoists, what are the names of your unit captain and inspector, and what sect are they from?"

"The unit captain's surname is Yuan Mingji, and he is a disciple of the Shangyuan Sect. The inspector's surname is Zhu Mingqian, and he is a disciple of the Xingyue Sect."

"May I ask these two, who has held the position in your department longer?"

"The co-captain of our team has been in this position for a longer time. I remember that the inspector was newly transferred here about ten years ago. At that time, the inspector of our team died in the battle of Fengqianting. After that, senior Zhu Qian was transferred here. I heard that he was originally the commander of the Sixteenth Legion. Since the previous inspector was a disciple of the Xingyue Sect, another Xingyue Sect disciple was transferred from the Sixteenth Legion to serve as the inspector."

"I don't know when the two fellow Taoists were transferred to the Seventh Alliance."

"Both of us were recruited directly from the sect thirty years ago."

"Do you know when Senior Yuan Ji was transferred to the Seventh Regiment as captain?"

"I don't know about this. It's not our turn to inquire about these things."

"When Fellow Taoist was transferred to the Seventh Army, was Senior Yuan Ji already serving in the Seventh Army?"

"That's natural."

"I don't know where Senior Yuan Ji's cave is. Can fellow Taoist take me there?"

"Of course, please come with me."

The two of them jumped out of the light and soon arrived in front of a cave.

"This is Senior Yuan's cave. Fellow Taoist, please come to us if you need anything." After that, the man turned into light and left.

Tang Ning pulled out a transmission talisman and handed it into the inner room. After about a tea break, she saw a tall, broad-set man with thick eyebrows and big eyes slowly walking out.

Tang Ning hurriedly stepped forward to greet the leader: "Junior Tang Ning, a monk from the 23rd Regiment, has the temerity to disturb you. I would like to ask if Senior Yuan Ji is here. I have a question for you."

This man only had the early stage of Nascent Soul cultivation, so he was definitely not Yuan Ji himself, but must be his disciple or someone else.

The man frowned slightly: "What do you want?"

"This junior is the nephew of senior Bai Jintang. He originally served in the 3rd Column and 7th Alliance of the 4th Army. Later, he was transferred to the 23rd Army to recuperate due to injuries. Now I have something important to see Master Bai. I came here from Fenghua City. . However, I just found out that Master Bai is not in the Seventh Alliance Army, so I took the liberty to bother Senior Yuan and ask, where is Master Bai now? I would be grateful if you could tell me."

Tang Ning was worried that Yuan Ji would ignore him, so he pulled out a tiger's skin and identified himself as Bai Jintang's nephew. He was now wearing the uniform of the Qingzhou Allied Forces, and no one else knew which sect he was a disciple of.

Anyway, Bai Jintang once said that he was his nephew, so he might as well use this identity.

As expected, the man did not question his identity in detail, but simply said: "Senior Bai Jintang has long been transferred to the 17th Army Corps as the captain of the 8th Column and 5th Alliance. Don't you know?"

"Senior Bai was transferred to the Seventeenth Army Corps? May I ask senior, when did this happen?"

Tang Ning was shocked. When the 17th Army attacked Jiyuan Island, the 17th Army and the 23rd Army fought side by side, and now the 17th Army is stationed in Fenghua City.

"It's been a long time. I can't remember the specific date. He went to fill the vacancy of captain of the 8th column and 5th regiment of the 17th legion, but I don't know if he is still in the 17th legion now."

"Thank you, senior, for informing me."

The man ignored him and turned around to enter the cave.

Tang Ning stood there blankly. God had played a big joke on him. He rushed from Fenghua City to Yuanxian City, but he didn't expect that the person he was looking for was actually in Fenghua City.

………………

In Fenghua City, where the 8th Column of the 17th Legion of the Qingzhou Alliance Army was stationed, in front of the majestic cave, two escaping lights shot out, revealing two figures, one with delicate features and the other with a burly figure.

"Fellow Daoist Tang, this is Senior Bai's cave, please do as you please."

Tang Ning handed the talisman inside and breathed a sigh of relief. After running back and forth for several months, she finally found Bai Jintang.

Fortunately, Bai Jintang is still around, and there is still everything that can be done.

Not long after, a ray of light flashed out from inside, revealing a petite woman with a graceful face, it was Yan Minyi.

Tang Ning hurriedly stepped forward and saluted: "Junior, I pay my respects to Senior Yan."

"You're here, come in!" Yan Min was not surprised at all when she saw him arriving, as if she had expected it.

The two walked towards the cave, with Tang Ning following closely behind them: "Senior Yan, are you and Senior Bai okay?"

"Nonsense, if it wasn't good, would you still be able to see it?"

"Yes, you and Senior Bai are both virtuous people, and those with great virtue will have great blessings."

"Okay, stop flattering, you are here this time to select disciples for the sect, right?"

"Senior Yan is aware of everything and wants to ask Senior Bai for help on this matter."

"Hmph, I know that every time you come here, nothing good will happen." Yan Min snorted coldly.

When Tangning heard her words, she felt a little ashamed.

Indeed, every time he came to Bai Jintang, he had something to ask for, and it was not something that could be easily accomplished.

But he had no choice, otherwise he wouldn't have shamelessly asked to see Bai Jintang again and again.

The two of them came to a stone house one after another. Yan Min pushed the door open and walked in. Sitting cross-legged in the back room was a man with a slender figure and a face like a crown of jade. He was Bai Jintang.

Tang Ning hurriedly stepped forward and bowed to salute: "Junior, I pay my respects to Senior Bai."

"Sit down! No need to be polite." Bai Jintang said with a smile.

Tang Ning took her seat as instructed and said straight to the point, "I'm very ashamed. This junior came here because I have something to ask of my senior."

"It's about the assignment of monk Qinghai to various sects!"

"Senior has clearly learned that this is indeed the case. Ever since I left Qinghai, I have been dreaming of joining the Taixuan Sect. I implore my senior to do it. Whenever he is told, he will go through fire and water without hesitation."

Hearing this, Yan Min curled his lips.

Bai Jingtang smiled and said, "You must have been able to keep your composure. You didn't come to me until now."

"I dare not hide it from my seniors. When I first heard about this, I went to look for my seniors, hoping to get help." Tang Ning recounted the story of her travels these days truthfully.

"I see. No wonder I said I went to the 23rd Legion several times to look for you, but I never met you."

"Senior, have you ever gone to the 23rd Army Corps to look for this junior?" Tangning was delighted. Bai Jintang would definitely not look for him without any reason. It must also be for this matter. He was originally worried that Bai Jintang would not be able to handle this matter, but now it seems that there are too many Considered.

"Just after the command was issued, I went to the 19th Army Corps to inquire about you, and found out that you were transferred to the 23rd Army Corps. A few days ago, I sent Minyi to look for you two or three times, but I didn't find you. It turns out that you But he went to Yuanxian County."

"I wonder why the senior is looking for the junior?"

"Pretending." Yan Min couldn't help but snorted: "It's not because of you joining Taixuan Sect that I went back and forth many times."

After hearing this, Tang Ning received a positive reply. She could no longer hide the joy in her heart. She was beaming with joy. She quickly stood up and bowed down: "Senior, I have been so kind to you. I will never be able to repay you in this life. Please accept my obeisance."
