Chapter 280 Night Road
Jiang Rong was surprised, "Is there such a thing? Is the news true or false?"
He also heard about the little girl favored by Xianlai Sect.
This was spread after the Xianlai Sect accepted disciples, and almost all the disciples saw it with their own eyes. All the elders of the Xianlai Sect were very fond of the little girl and protected her as if she were the apple of their eye.
Many new disciples were amazed by this and were asking around about the identity of the little girl.
"It's probably true. Otherwise, why would the whole sect dote on such a little girl? You should know that she was a cripple before she was one year old. At that time, the people in the Xianlai Sect couldn't even afford food, but they still raised her by tightening their belts!"
Jin Feng said this seriously.
"Didn't they say that Xianlai Sect was too kind and picked her up on the street?" Jiang Rong was very surprised. "If she was their biological daughter, why would they lie and say that she was picked up?"
"Oh, it's just a cover-up. When people can't afford to eat, they don't have extra kindness! As for why they lied... I think it must be because they found out that the child was disabled after birth, and they felt ashamed, so they didn't want to acknowledge him."
Jin Feng snorted and disagreed.
Jiang Rong sighed, "I really didn't expect this... But the Xianlai Sect is quite cunning. It's fine that the leader and his disciples secretly had a child, but they raised their own daughter as an orphan and used this to promote the Xianlai Sect's reputation for kindness and earn a wave of praise."
I didn’t expect it to be such a Xianlai Sect!
Oh, outsiders all say that the Wuya Sect is cunning and vicious. Now it seems that the praised Xianlai Sect is not that good!
Jiang Rong glanced at Jin Feng.
The deputy captain Jin Feng is quite talented. His other abilities may be mediocre, but when it comes to gossip and anecdotes between sects, no one knows more than him.
If you want to hear some gossip, it's always right to find him. With Jin Feng by my side these days, even the boring journey seems a lot more interesting.
Well, it's very suitable to take him on a long trip.
While the two were chatting, the team led by Chen Lan had already completed the mission.
The milky crystal ant queen had been killed, and the ant soldiers had been surrounded and dealt with by other disciples.
The number of ants is astonishingly large, as if they have been reproducing here for thousands or tens of thousands of years. That's because there are so many people, otherwise the task would not have been accomplished if there were fewer people.
Every disciple gained something and was extremely happy.
Jin Feng was a little sour, "They are so lucky...it would be great if we got it."
"We still have to chase the person, so we won't be able to deal with it even if we see it." Jiang Rong didn't take it seriously.
His family is not short of money and he has never suffered from lack of money since childhood, so he looks down on this benefit.
Jin Feng was still mumbling, "Anyway, we can't lose him. We'll still have time to catch up after we deal with him..."
"Stop talking and go."
Chen Lan has already set off again with his team.
This time, just as Chen Lan said, we did not stop along the way and were still walking until late at night.
Many disciples already felt very exhausted. Those who were not short of money would take out pills to eat, while some felt sorry for the pills and could only grit their teeth and endure, trying to exert their physical strength.
You have to know that everyone was traveling very fast along the way, which was because they were cultivators. If they were mortals, they would not be able to keep up in even half an hour and would fall behind.
Not only do they have to hurry on their journey, they also have to use their spiritual energy to fight monsters, and they also have to climb up and down to pick spiritual herbs and fruits.
Although everyone was tired, it was not to the point where they could not bear it, and no one asked for a break.
Chen Lan saw this and nodded silently in her heart.
I have to say that the first batch of disciples recruited by Xianlai Sect are very excellent. Everyone has more or less flaws, but as long as the general direction is not deviated, those minor flaws are not worth mentioning.
These new disciples are able to endure hardships and have good characters. As long as they are willing to obey the orders of the leader and not be lazy, slack, or indecisive, the benefits they gain will be something that all other sects will envy.
Just look at them now and you will know, how long have they been in the sect? But they changed their skills first and entered the secret realm later, other sects have already been envious!
Take this entry into the secret realm for example. If they had not been led by the Xianlai Sect, they would definitely not have chosen to enter this secret realm, and there would not have been any senior masters from the sect to protect them. How many treasures would they have missed out on?
Even among the disciples of the ten major sects, not everyone has the opportunity to gain such experience!
As for those disciples who had food at their doorsteps but chose to turn their heads away and not eat, that is, those who failed to get on the flying boat or regretted not going forward after getting on the flying boat, it cannot be said that they did anything wrong.
Being cautious is not a bad thing, especially in the world of immortal cultivation where there may be many sweet temptations. Their determination may be an advantage at times, but in the Xianlai Sect... they will suffer a bit of a disadvantage.
But it doesn't matter. Chen Lan is sure that these people's caution will only last one or twice. Once they know what benefits the people who enter the secret realm have gained, they will definitely not be like this again.
"Be careful on the road ahead and watch out for the thorns on both sides." Chen Lan reminded.
The road is difficult to walk at night, and this road is especially difficult.
The ground was a bit muddy, and there were many dead branches and thorns on both sides of the road, which could easily tear your clothes and hurt your skin if you were not careful.
There was a disciple in brocade clothes in the team who was walking with a sword in his hand. He was wearing a pair of brocade boots with gold-rimmed embroidery. The other disciples found it slippery in the mud and had difficulty walking, but he was not affected at all and walked as if he were walking on flat ground.
Not only that, the robes he wore were not ordinary items. Even if they were scratched by some sharp thorns, the clothes would remain intact and would not hurt the skin.
In addition, he has a Qiankun belt around his waist, the space of which is ten times that of the Qiankun bag. The black hairpin on his hair is also a defensive magic weapon. There is also a jewel necklace around his neck that is obviously not an ordinary item.
These are just the decorations that can be seen on the surface.
This disciple seemed to have an odd look on his face, not because he was tired, but because of something else.
Just like now.
As he was walking, he suddenly turned back in surprise and doubt, as if he was looking for something.
"Brother Lei, what are you looking at?"
The disciple behind him almost bumped into him and couldn't help but ask out of curiosity.
It was late at night and even the people nearby were almost invisible. In the distance there were only layered tree shadows and dense forests on distant mountains. Naturally, it was impossible to make out anything.
Lei Dahai retracted his gaze and said, "Nothing, I just feel like there's someone behind me..."
"Haha, look at what you said, of course there are people behind you, there are still a lot of people!"
They are in the middle position and are relatively weak, either because of poor cultivation or poor combat skills.
Behind them were one third of the disciples in the team, so naturally there were “a lot of people”.
