Once the Imperial Court issued its orders.
Numerous experts left Central Province and headed across the land to slay Evil Fiends.
The players also received a large-scale mission to combat the demon calamity.
"Slay Evil Fiends!"
Looking at the mission in his system, Cao Hong showed some interest.
After failing to infiltrate the Origin Sect.
He had chosen to join the Imperial Court's forces.
It had been a choice born of helplessness.
Cao Hong felt that joining another sect would still be too risky. If that sect foolishly offended the Origin Sect, there was a ninety-five percent chance he would have to pack up and flee again.
By now.
He had finally recognized one fact.
He and that Liangshan Stronghold Chief seemed destined to clash.
Whenever he got close to the man.
Nothing good ever happened to him.
Especially now that Qin Shujian's reputation was growing and his strength was becoming ever more formidable, Cao Hong felt that his hopes of revenge were slim. He gradually settled down and focused on improving his own strength instead.
As for the Qin-Destroying Alliance he belonged to.
Quite a few of its members had infiltrated the Origin Sect.
But—
Cao Hong discovered that many of those members seemed to have defected. They had completely forgotten their original purpose and, bombarded by the Origin Sect's sweet temptations, had thrown themselves wholeheartedly into the enemy's embrace.
About that.
There was nothing he could do.
After all, at this stage, players had few opportunities to join a Top-Tier Great Sect.
It was not that the players lacked talent.
Rather, none of the other Top-Tier Great Sects had opened their gates to recruit disciples on a large scale. However talented the players were, they still needed those sects to open their doors before they could join.
