Chapter 282 Premeditation
"Ah? It's nothing. I was just tired and asked how long it would take to get there, but the peak master just told me to keep going." Lei Dahai touched his head and said.
The fellow disciples couldn't help but laugh, "You are so brave that you dared to ask the peak master directly. It's good that the peak master didn't scold you!"
Xianlai Sect is different from other sects. All the seniors at the level of peak masters in other sects are powerful people with extremely high cultivation, the kind that the disciples will look up to when they see them.
This is not the case with the Xianlai Sect. Not to mention the peak master, even the sect leader's cultivation is not that good. There are many new disciples whose cultivation is far beyond theirs.
If there were still people who looked down on them for this in the beginning, after they joined the sect, this contempt naturally disappeared.
Because everyone knew the past of the Xianlai Sect. The old members had either died or fled, and the few who remained had all experienced suffering.
If they hadn't been so strong-willed and hadn't held on, there wouldn't be the Xianlai Sect today.
Ask yourself, if your identities were switched, I’m afraid none of us would be able to do that.
Of course, the most important reason is that after the disciples joined the sect, they gradually developed a sense of belonging and identity with the Xianlai Sect. This is the result of efforts from many parties. For example, the Xianlai Sect has a very good style. There is no such thing as backdoors or bullying the weak. The elders treat all disciples equally.
Another thing is that the Xianlai Sect is really "strong", whether it is curing diseases and saving lives, or breakthrough pills, or exercises that can make up for the lack of spiritual roots.
In the world of immortal cultivation, the strong are indeed respected, but this strength does not refer only to the level of cultivation. It is obvious that the Xianlai Sect conquers its disciples by relying on their strength in other aspects, rather than the level of their cultivation.
So even though Chen Lan's cultivation level was only at the foundation-building stage, which was similar to most of them, no one would be disrespectful to him because of this.
"I'm just asking..."
Lei Dahai chuckled and felt relieved when he saw that no one was suspicious.
He couldn't help but think that the reason why his premonition was triggered but he didn't feel any danger was probably because the other party's actions were within the expectations of the peak master, so although it seemed risky, it ultimately did not cause any trouble.
Everyone was hurrying on their way with difficulty. Fortunately, there were many people, so even if someone slipped, someone nearby would pull them up in time, so nothing happened.
"Look, is there a house in front?" One of the disciples walking in front suddenly shouted, full of surprise.
Everyone couldn't help but stop and look up.
Although it was dark at night, everyone could still make out the general outline of the building in front of them. It was indeed a house.
And judging by its size and style, this must be a mansion!
The group had been walking in the secret realm for so many days and had seen many treasures, but had never seen a house before. This was the first time.
Seeing this, everyone was excited.
"There is actually a mansion. This must be the residence of some senior. There must be a lot of good things in it!"
"Yes, the terrain around here is so difficult to walk on, and the monsters are more powerful than those in other places. Anyone who dares to live here must be an extraordinary person."
"No wonder the leader asked us to walk at night. Did he know about this place a long time ago?"
Everyone was amazed and looked at the yard, wishing they could fly there immediately.
After hearing everyone talking, Chen Lan finally spoke, "I did find some clues, and thus deduced that there were traces of monks living nearby, but going in this direction was just a matter of luck, and I didn't expect to actually find it."
"Wow, that's amazing, Master Chen Feng, I wonder what clues you found? We didn't find anything!"
The disciple couldn't help but become curious.
"Do you remember the stalk of grass we dug up yesterday morning? That was obviously planted by humans, because it wouldn't grow like that naturally. Stalk of grass is slightly poisonous, and this poison can be spread by the wind. It's fine to come into contact with a small amount, but if you touch it for a long time, it will be harmful to your body."
"So I guessed that there should be people living here, but they should live quite far away. Also, have you noticed that the number of monsters around us is increasing as we get closer? I guess there may be some treasures around, with sufficient spiritual energy, which attracted these monsters to stay here."
Chen Lan said.
Everyone was amazed after hearing this, and some people thought to themselves that the Peak Master was indeed the Peak Master. Even if their cultivation was equal, they were still far superior!
But in fact, Chen Lan felt a little embarrassed and guilty——
These are of course just nonsense.
In other words, these words are true, but they are not the result she inferred from the cause, but the cause she inferred from the result!
It is precisely because we know that there is a house at this location and there are treasures in the house that we can connect it with some clues around it.
But the disciples didn't know this. They believed it to be true. When they heard Chen Lan say that there might be treasures in the house, which led to the abundant spiritual energy here, they became even more excited.
How many treasures are there in that house!
I wonder if there are enough for them with so many people?
If there were only one or two people talking here, the noise might not be enough to be heard at the Wuya Gate behind. However, when a group of people were discussing something intensely, they would naturally hear it.
"House? Treasure?"
Jin Feng became excited and quickly looked at Jiang Rong, "Captain Jiang, do you think there will be anything good here?"
How does he know!
Master Xue didn’t explain it in such detail!
Jiang Rong seemed very calm, "Why are you in such a hurry? If there are any good things, we will not be left out."
If the Xianlai Sect got it, then doesn’t that mean that the Wuya Sect got it?
Anyway, no matter how much they get, it will eventually fall into their own pockets, it's just a matter of time.
They take the risks and they reap the benefits. It's a good idea to think this way.
Jiang Rong showed a bit of amusement, with some expectation of watching the fire from the other side of the river.
If Wuyamen's plan succeeds, the benefits to them will be unimaginable.
"Let's stay closer. If they have too many good things to take, we can get a share." Jin Feng rubbed his hands and said.
"It's late at night. If you get too close you'll be discovered. Stay calm." Jiang Rong glanced at Jin Feng.
Having said that, the pace was still a little faster.
After walking for a while, Xianlai Zong arrived in front of the house.
There is a river right in front of the house, with a small bridge over the river.
The house was pitch black. Naturally, no one lived here and it looked desolate.
No one knows whether these people died in the space cracks or something, but no one is surprised, because there are almost no indigenous people in almost all secret realms, which may be related to the fluctuations in spiritual energy.
You have to know that before the secret realm appeared, it had been wandering in the ownerless space. It was unimaginable turbulence and danger, and it was difficult for anyone to survive.
