Chapter 93 Lack of Manpower
When Xiong Jun discovered that the auspicious beast Wang Qiu'er had an unusual attitude towards the human in front of him who seemed to be named "Huo Yuhao", he transformed into a burly human man.
Seeing Brigitte showing him such respect, even calling him "Your Highness," the bear was completely dumbfounded.
Wait, who is this human kid?
Why would you use the word "instruct" even when addressing Di Tian?
"Wait a minute, where did this title 'Your Highness' come from?" Lu Mingfei wondered as well.
Why use such a formal title? He's not some prince or nobleman.
If anyone should be addressed, it should be Your Majesty, right?
Sensing Lu Mingfei's displeasure, Brigitte remained gentle in her tone and expression: "How would you like us to address you?"
"Uh—" Lu Mingfei was stumped by the question.
It's definitely not acceptable to ask them to call him by his real name, since he had previously used nicknames and terms of endearment given to him by his own people when speaking to the Silver Dragon King. These "outsiders" naturally cannot use those names.
But if they were asked to call him "Huo Yuhao," it wouldn't feel like they were calling him.
He stroked his chin thoughtfully for a moment, then said, "I'm planning to create a sect called 'Peerless Tang Sect,' and you can all call me the sect leader!"
Upon hearing this, Wang Qiu'er's expression immediately became somewhat strange, her pinkish-blue eyes revealing a hint of doubt and confusion.
Upon seeing her expression, Lu Mingfei immediately remembered his "amnesiac persona" and quickly explained, "It's like this, I found some things in the storage soul tool, and Brother Tianmeng also told me a lot about what happened before."
He shrugged, his tone carrying just the right amount of helplessness: "Given the current situation, I definitely can't go back. But I can establish a new Tang Clan here."
Wang Qiu'er smiled and nodded to Lu Mingfei, seemingly believing his explanation.
"Then should I call you Sect Leader too?" Wang Qiu'er teased.
Lu Mingfei said seriously, "It's not impossible."
Wang Qiu'er rolled her eyes at him.
This guy can still be a bit silly sometimes.
However, he is much better now than he was before, when he looked so dazed and silly.
However, it also made Wang Qiu'er feel increasingly unfamiliar with it.
Is the person in front of her still Huo Yuhao, the one with whom she had a destiny connection?
He was—Wang Qiu'er gritted her teeth, suppressing the heartache that involuntarily arose, and continued to ponder: after thousands of times of dying and being resurrected, could he have become a completely different person?
However, the connection of fate remains clear.
Ever since that day, Wang Qiu'er has been doubting her feelings for Huo Yuhao.
These past few days, I've been torn between doubt and determination, and my spiritual practice has fallen behind.
"Forget it, I'll wait until Huo Yuhao fully regains his memories." Wang Qiu'er looked at that face, a bitter smile on her face. "For now, I'll just treat him like a younger brother."
Upon realizing this, Wang Qiu'er immediately felt much better.
As a result, the way she looked at Lu Mingfei became normal.
Lu Mingfei breathed a sigh of relief.
Although he was very envious and jealous of Huo Yuhao, that popular guy, who had a lot of romantic luck, it didn't mean that he would want to accept those romantic luck and become a traitor after becoming Huo Yuhao!
The type of girl he likes isn't that type.
Therefore, Wang Qiu'er's attitude is very good now.
As for Wang Dong'er, since they've already broken up, we'll deal with it when Huo Yuhao comes back.
Seeing that Lu Mingfei had made a decision, Biji smiled and greeted him, "Biji greets the sect leader."
Xiong Jun couldn't understand why Bi Ji had this attitude, but Xiong Jun was arrogant and reckless, not stupid.
Even if he couldn't figure out what abilities the person in front of him had, he was at least somewhat pragmatic.
He'll wait until he's figured out the other party's background before deciding whether to rush in recklessly.
Now—it seems even Di Tian has to bow his head. So what if he bows his head? Anyway, Di Tian lost face first!
"Brother Xiong greets the sect leader." The burly man, who was two and a half meters tall, awkwardly bowed to Lu Mingfei.
Lu Mingfei's lips twitched.
That's good, now the "Peerless Tang Sect" has disciples, right?
"No need for formalities," Lu Mingfei thought for a moment, then took out the Tang Sect's martial arts manuals and said to Bi Ji, "Ms. Bi Ji, please give these to Di Tian, and have Di Tian and Yin..."
Lu Mingfei paused. Since the identity of the Silver Dragon King could not be revealed for the time being, he decided to just call her "Silver".
"Let's work with Gin to study and improve it."
Brigitte smiled and nodded.
The Starry Sky Forest is not close to the Sunset Forest, but it won't take Brigitte too long to get there.
But instead of going immediately, she asked, "Is there anything else you need?"
Lu Mingfei felt a little uneasy.
Although Brigitte had been quite gentle and kind before, her current obsequious and accommodating demeanor made him uncomfortable.
When did Lao Lu start getting this kind of treatment in front of beautiful women?
But when he thought about how he had shown off in front of Di Tian, Silver Dragon King and Rong Nianbing, he couldn't let his image drop!
He coughed, looked around, his gaze sweeping over the tranquil forest and the shimmering Lake of Life, and said seriously, "First, we need to build a decent house nearby. Now that the sect has been established, it needs a proper place to stay."
"In addition, we also need to establish a branch in the human realm. We don't need to do anything specific, but we can't be completely ignorant about human affairs." Actually, this was part of the plan he wrote for Di Tian, but since Di Tian was too busy to do it, he would arrange it himself.
Intelligence is very important. War can be won by overwhelming force, but it can also be won by exploiting information gaps.
Given the current complex situation in Douluo Continent, there's no way to simply crush them. After all, you can't just kill all living beings, can you?
“Building houses isn’t a problem,” although even transformed ferocious beasts like Di Tian and Bi Ji live in the open, at most having a cave or a grassy nest as their “dwellings,” it’s still easy to quickly construct a sturdy building using soul power. “But establishing a base in a human town—currently only ferocious beasts that have reached the 100,000-year level can stably transform into human form. Who do you want to send out?”
This is indeed a tricky problem. They need to be capable enough, reliable enough, and able to integrate into the human world without revealing their weaknesses.
But in the Star Dou Great Forest, there are only these soul beasts that are hated and killed as soon as they appear in human society.
All told, there are only nine people who can reliably maintain their human form and can be considered "high-end combat power," including Wang Qiu'er and the Silver Dragon King.
Although this ratio is already quite outrageous, after all, there are seven of the ten ferocious beasts in the Star Dou Great Forest, the number is still too small!
Moreover, Lu Mingfei seriously doubted that even if these "high-end talents" were sent out, they might not know how to behave in human society.
Ultimately, even ferocious beasts are still beasts. Even if they possess intelligence comparable to humans, they may be completely clueless about the rules of human society, interpersonal relationships, and even everyday matters.
Survival may not be difficult, but to gather intelligence and build networks with ease? That's a completely different story.
