"Going to the Senluo Wanxiang Sect first will definitely alert the Blood Control Sect, giving them more time to think," Su Youyi pondered with a frown.

"Regardless of their attitude towards us, as long as they have the idea of forming an alliance, they will not stop us from entering the mountain. Once they agree to let us in, it means they also want to ally with us."

Analyzing the psychological state of the Blood Control Sect, Su Youyi spoke bit by bit.

"Now that the Abyss is almost completely out, the Blood Control Sect probably isn't going to bother about these old grievances with you. Just don't ridicule them, meow," mentioned Grandpa Ju, offering his honest advice.

"The only one among us who would ridicule them is you," Liang Yi quipped with a sidelong glance at Grandpa Ju, stating the plain truth.

"What your Grandpa Ju does is strategically attract firepower, you know nothing, meow!" Grandpa Ju protested vehemently, baring his claws.

While Liang Yi and his group were discussing which sect to visit first, Zixuan Bu received a message from Liang Yi.

"A person from the Devouring Spirit Sect who is a Vermilion Bird envoy, and also requests no harm be done?" Zixuan Bu scratched his head, feeling somewhat perplexed.

However, Zixuan Bu didn't think too much about it; he almost always found Liang Yi's suggestions effective, which he truly respected.

After he released this mission to the sect, all disciples of the Purple Cloud Sect and other players allied with Purple Cloud Sect saw this mission that shimmered with golden light.

"Searching for a Devouring Spirit Sect's Vermilion Bird envoy?"

"Hisss, a gold-level mission? Wow, isn't this the first time such a high-level sect mission has appeared?"

"Liang Yi really thinks highly of us, saying not to cause harm. Being able to not respawn on the spot is already quite impressive for me."

Some beta players knew of the Vermilion Bird envoy from the Devouring Spirit Sect and had seen her in action. While everyone loves a beautiful lady, they also didn't want to waste their chances of revival pointlessly.

Fortunately, the request made by Liang Yi was just to report the whereabouts, not requiring players to interact with the Vermilion Bird envoy.

Moreover, upon seeing the rewards for this golden mission, players put all their concerns aside —

The first three layers of the Purple Cloud Emperor Scripture!

All players knew that the Purple Cloud Emperor Scripture was the fundamental Cultivation Technique of the Purple Cloud Sect, and the ultimate goal of all Purple Cloud Sect players.

They thought it would take a long time to trigger a related mission, but to everyone's surprise, this mission suddenly appeared.

And when players opened the attribute enhancements of the Purple Cloud Emperor Scripture, their eyes gleamed heatedly. This was currently the strongest known Cultivation Technique to have emerged in the game, and everyone was eager to find that Vermilion Bird envoy from the Devouring Spirit Sect.

With such a high reward, numerous players stopped hunting red name monsters and started joining the search for the Vermilion Bird.

Meanwhile, Bai Xiaomo and Ju Xiaobei were drooling over the mission rewards while squatting in the bushes. They had accidentally discovered a red name boss from the Devouring Spirit Sect that was just right for their current level.

Just when they had almost caught him, he escaped; now, they were waiting for him to reappear as they sat hidden, but then this new mission was released.

Being among the first players to join the Purple Cloud Sect, they were well aware of the power of the Purple Cloud Emperor Scripture.

They had previously tried to trigger the task for obtaining the Purple Cloud Emperor Scripture when other players hadn't yet entered, but the wily old Supreme Elder would just smile silently no matter how they asked.

"What should we do?" Bai Xiaomo looked longingly at the mission panel, really wanting it.

"Cool it down, man. Why are you still focused on that Devouring Spirit Sect mob? Hurry up and find that Vermilion Bird envoy," Ju Xiaobei, intensely covetous of the Purple Cloud Emperor Scripture himself, couldn't hold back any longer.

"Good point. So, where do we start looking?" Bai Xiaomo perked up momentarily before reverting to his listless demeanor. Any place they could think of, other players could likely think of too.

"Hmm..." Ju Xiaobei also felt that this wasn't an easy task.

With absolutely no clues, even as players, they could only resort to the most cumbersome method of carpet searching, mainly relying on luck.

After all, the Vermilion Bird envoy was also a level seventy-plus boss; hiding from them would be easy.

"This task seems simple without any hints, but it's actually quite troublesome!" Bai Xiaomo complained while crouching in the grass.

Ju Xiaobei kept silent; during the beta, he was one of the players who had the most encounters with the Vermilion Bird envoy, albeit only from a distance.

"Oh, that house!" Ju Xiaobei suddenly became enlightened, a flash of insight striking him.

"What house?" Bai Xiaomo looked puzzled at his excited friend, not understanding his sudden enthusiastic outburst.

"Let's go, there might be clues about the Vermilion Bird envoy somewhere." Ju Xiaobei no longer cared about concealing their presence and burst out of the bushes, dispelling his Daoist disguise as he ran with Bai Xiaomo quickly trailing behind.

Although even he wasn't sure it was a clue, they had to try it out anyway. At least, they couldn't just wander aimlessly like other headless fly players.

Using the sect's Transmission Array, they traveled to Qingliang, and Ju Xiaobei, following the routes in his memory, led Bai Xiaomo quickly through the streets of Qingliang.

"Are you crazy? Why would the Vermilion Bird envoy be here?" Bai Xiaomo was speechless, thinking his friend had discovered some earth-shattering secret, only to end up back in Qingliang City.

The Vermilion Bird envoy wouldn't foolishly return here, right?

"Shush, don't talk." Ju Xiaobei couldn't be bothered to speak with this fool. Just lie low when the boss is leading the way.

Standing at a crossroads in an alley, Ju Xiaobei frowned, struggling to decide.

He had originally wandered around randomly, following a song he heard, but now trying to retrace his steps, even with a map, was challenging to remember.

However, Ju Xiaobei wasn't panicked; he trusted his luck, certainly much better than that of Bai Xiaomo's.

Looking around, Ju Xiaobei noticed that the paths looked identically similar, the only difference being the NPCs coming in and out of the alleys.

Biting his lip, Ju Xiaobei chose a path at random; if it was wrong, he'd just have to explore every path later.

Yet, as they ventured deeper into the alley, Ju Xiaobei's spirits lifted; he felt he might have chosen correctly.
