Dual Cultivation: Ying Yang is way to Chaos Chapter 550: Hidden Entity
Previously on Dual Cultivation: Ying Yang is way to Chaos...
When the others heard that, they also turned their attention towards Xiao Canglan.
"Is there something like that, Sect Master?" Duan Lie asked with raised eyebrows," Don’t tell us that they want to take away Sun Xiurong completely from the Mysterious Heaven Sect.."
Most of them might be interested in Sun Xiurong marrying Zhe Peng given all the rewards, but they would never agree to such a condition...
Sun Xiurong was their heavenly genius, her value to the sect was immeasurable, no amount of resources would be enough for them to give up on her.
Xiao Canglan shook his head," If there was something like that, then I would have rejected this proposal directly without discussion.."
Others nodded in understanding..
"So, no hidden conditions, interesting..." Tian Ruhai said and looked at Cui Shuyin, who still hadn’t said anything," What is your opinion, Elder Cui..."
Just like Zhao Tianheng, he wasn’t truly going to persuade Cui Shuyin, as he knew her temperament very well.
All of them turned their attention to Cui Shuyin and waited for her to say something, even when they already had an inkling that she wouldn’t agree to this proposal.
Cui Shuyin, who had been silent till now, finally shook her head calmly," Is there even a need to ask me, reject this proposal.."
No one was much surprised hearing that..
"You are not going to discuss it with Sun Xiurong? After all, I am sure you know how precious that Sword Heart is?" Xiao Canglan stated calmly.
Weapon Hearts were unique treasures which were almost impossible to obtain because of the stringent conditions required for their formation..
"No need.." Cui Shuyin waved her hand," If this was the reason we were summoned here, then I will take my leave now.."
Cui Shuyin was certain that this Sword Heart wouldn’t move Sun Xiurong even in the slightest. Forget about the Dao Lord Realm, even if it was a realm beyond that, it wouldn’t mean anything in Sun Xiurong’s eyes..
No one stopped Cui Shuyin, and she silently left the pavilion..
"Sigh, it’s quite a good offer, if it had been anyone else, they would have eagerly accepted it.." Zhao Tianheng sighed ruefully.
"I beg your pardon, Elder Zhao, but if it had been someone other than Sun Xiurong, then this offer wouldn’t have been this lucrative... in fact, it wouldn’t even have reached the stage where the Zhe Clan would have to send a marriage proposal."
Qin Ruoxuan spoke with a slightly amused tone, making the others nod faintly.
"Well, that was all for this gathering..." Xiao Canglan stood up and left, he had to come up with a proper response so as not to sour the relationship with the Zhe Clan...
Others didn’t overstay their welcome and left one by one..
...
In the spirit field, Lin Feng was planting all the spirit herbs he had obtained from the recent mission when Cui Shuyin descended beside him.
"How was the mission near the mine.." she said while looking at all the new herbs planted recently.
Lin Feng stood up from his crouching position before turning towards her," It was alright, Senior, although, I wonder if the mine is secured from the anomalies it had shown recently.."
Cui Shuyin nodded," Most of it is now contained through proper measures, but only the future will reveal how secure it truly is.." She stopped momentarily before speaking with a slight smile.
"Elder Qin mentioned in passing about your skirmish with the Judgment Hall disciple... she praised you for not yielding to the pressure of a stronger cultivator who also possesses the authority to discipline.."
Lin Feng was a little surprised hearing that, he hadn’t expected someone to be keeping an eye on the ordeal.. Now that he thought about it, there might have been others with her, and they definitely had come to investigate the mine.
This was the reason the anomalies were suppressed shortly after his visit to the mine..
"Well, I have weathered through such trials a numerous number of times, Senior, so it didn’t affect me in any way.."
It was normal for cultivators to pass through such trials, especially when one had no backing, which he hadn’t possessed in his previous life..
Cui Shuyin nodded with a smile," Of course you are a mighty Senior who has lived for so long, so you must definitely have witnessed every kind of storm in your life.."
Lin Feng knew that she was being a little sarcastic, but she didn’t know that she had merely spoken the truth.
"Senior, I want to know about this mine, if it’s not hidden knowledge, then would you mind enlightening me about it?"
Cui Shuyin raised her eyebrows slightly," It definitely is hidden knowledge from disciples, but my status is enough to let you know about everything... but tell me one thing, what has drawn you so deeply to it, the soul erosion, or did you discover something?"
To her, he was a little enigma, whom she still wasn’t able to understand very well... he seemed to possess boundless knowledge and even spoke at times like a truly mighty existence.
She even thought that he might have uncovered some unknown secrets of this mine by himself after entering it, but it seemed that wasn’t the case...
Lin Feng nodded," I discovered a few things, like this erosion stems from some corrupted spirit tree, a hidden vitality-filled spirit tree which seems to exist solely to weaken the seal, and... a hidden entity within the other side of the mine, but since this is all merely based on my assumptions, I want to hear the complete truth and verify how much I was right about them.."
"What!!" Cui Shuyin’s eyes widened hearing the words hidden entity, so much so that she didn’t even care how he had managed to discern so much from a single visit.
Lin Feng was a little surprised," I see, so the sect didn’t know about this hidden entity.."
He had considered that possibility, that’s why he wanted to mention it to her in the first place.
"How certain are you about this assumption, Feng’er.."
Cui Shuyin asked with a slight frown, the fact that he had managed to discern so much about the other aspects made her feel that it was highly unlikely that he was mistaken about this one.. but she still asked for confirmation, after all, it was somewhat chilling that something had remained concealed within for so long without their knowledge.
