Chapter 1248: Unanimity
Mo Shangchen didn't get angry after hearing what Lian Xiye said. He just smiled bitterly and said:
"I am indeed the son of the City Lord's Mansion, but I am not the only heir. I have an older brother and an older sister, and a younger sister. The four of us are not born of the same mother, so I have to fight for everything I want on my own."
Although Mo Shangchen spoke cryptically, everyone present understood clearly that things were not peaceful inside the City Lord's Mansion. Although they appeared to be a family on the surface, no one knew what kind of fight they were going on behind the scenes.
“I am not afraid of being laughed at by you. Since I entered the Qianji Sect, I have gained some status in the mansion. However, if I want more cultivation resources, besides the supply from the sect and the quota set by the mansion, I have to rely on myself for everything else.
Not long ago, on my way back to the city, I accidentally obtained a map of a cave belonging to a Divine Transformation cultivator, so I thought about finding someone to cooperate with after I came back to explore this cave together.
No one in the mansion knows this news yet. I deliberately concealed it because I didn’t want my brothers and sisters to take advantage of it.”
After Mo Shangchen finished speaking, a sarcastic smile appeared at the corner of his lips.
"Fellow Daoist Moshang, this Divine Transformation cultivator's cave must be filled with dangers. Our cultivation is not good enough."
Ripple said bluntly.
"This is easy to handle. I see that you are all in the late Jindan stage. I think it is only a matter of time before you advance to the Yuanying stage. I can lend you the Soul Gathering Array in the City Lord's Mansion to help you advance to the Yuanying stage. This way, you will have a better grasp of the situation when exploring the Huashen Cave Mansion."
Mo Shangchen said generously.
After hearing this, Lian Yi's eye twitched and she glanced at Lian Xiye who looked a little excited. He was indeed the son of luck. His chance of advancing to the Nascent Soul stage in a short period of time had been cut off by her, so now someone had specially built a ladder for him.
When everyone was silent, Lianyi spoke:
"Fellow Daoist Moshang, please don't accuse me of being mean. You are helping us advance and taking us to explore the Great Power Cave. It's impossible for such good things to fall on us all at once, right? Is this Great Power Cave very dangerous?
We monks fight for our lives, but we don’t want to die prematurely because of greed, nor do we want to be a stepping stone for others. "
Lianyi's words were like a bucket of cold water poured on the heads of the four restless people. They knew that Elaine was right. There was no kindness without reason. Besides, they and Mo Shangchen had only met once, and others would not be so kind to them with all their heart.
The ball was kicked in front of Mo Shangchen again, but he was not angry. At least it proved that the teammates he chose were smart, which was better.
“To be honest, when I got the map of the Great Power’s Cave, I calculated that if I went alone, I would definitely die. Only if I find the right teammates can I have a chance to seize this opportunity.
After meeting a few of you yesterday, I figured out that you are the most suitable people to be teammates. If we can work together, it will be a mutually beneficial outcome. "
Mo Shangchen said half-truthfully.
After hearing this, Lian Xiye lowered his eyes and thought about it. The storage box that he and Mo Shangchen had both set their eyes on was finally obtained by him in exchange for something else from the stall owner. After returning and dripping blood to recognize the owner, he found a sword manual in the interlayer space of the storage box. He has been studying this set of sword techniques these two days. If he makes some progress, it will definitely improve his combat power.
It seems that Mo Shangchen is also a person with great opportunity. If what the other party said is true, then there must be good things in this powerful cave, otherwise the other party would not be willing to take the risk, nor would he be willing to let them have a share. After comprehensive consideration, he felt that this cooperation was feasible.
After figuring it out, Lian Xiye said:
"Fellow Daoist Moshang, I wonder how the things in this great cave will be distributed if we cooperate with you?"
The other people also looked at Mo Shangchen. They were also very concerned about this topic. They didn't want to end up working hard to make wedding dresses for others.
"I only want this Divine Transformation cultivator's life-defining magic weapon and his magic robe. I will not participate in the distribution of other things. What you can find depends on your own abilities."
Mo Shangchen said magnanimously.
Since he wants to use the luck of the two people to enter the cave of the Divine Transformation cultivator, he will definitely make choices. It is impossible for him to take all the good things. His goal is to make friends with people with great luck. This will benefit him in every way.
After hearing this, several people looked at each other and no one spoke. Finally, Lian Xiye said:
"Friend Moshang, we need to discuss this matter. Can you give us some time to think about it?"
"Of course, you can stay in the City Lord's Mansion temporarily. You are my guests. Whether you agree or not, we are still friends."
Mo Shangchen said with a smile.
"Of course, thank you, Daoist friend Moshang."
Mo Shangchen did not force them. He raised his hand to remove the restriction and asked the housekeeper to arrange the five people in a yard and wait for good news from them.
After the five people entered the yard, they tacitly did not return to their own residences, but gathered together to discuss the matter.
"What do you think?"
Lian Xiye, as the initiator of the team and the person who took the initiative to communicate with Mo Shangchen, asked as soon as he sat down.
"I think we can give it a try."
Lian Yi gave an affirmative answer.
"Friend Yi Dao has decided to continue to team up with us."
Lian Xiye said with a smile.
"Anyway, I'm here to gain experience, so it doesn't matter where I go. It would be best if I could get more resources for myself.
However, opportunities and risks go hand in hand. Our current cultivation is not good enough, and the most urgent task is to improve our cultivation. This way, we will have a greater chance of success, and even if Mo Shangchen really has any plans, we will be able to deal with it.
Anyway, I think that spiritual stones will not fall from the sky for no reason, nor will they fall on our heads so accurately. We must be on guard against others, and since it involves chance, we should think more before making a decision."
Lian Yi spread his hands.
Ye Qing glanced at Lian Yi, then asked tentatively:
"Friend Yi, aren't you afraid of being plotted against?"
"That depends on whether he has the ability to do so. Even if I can't defeat him, at least I have the capital to escape. As long as I go back, I can naturally find the elders to support me."
Lian Yi snapped her nails and spoke nonchalantly.
The four of them looked at each other secretly, and became more and more certain that Lianyi was a young lady from a large cultivation family who came out to gain experience, so she was so confident.
"You guys go discuss it first. I'm going back to practice. Whether you guys go or not, I'm going to explore the cave of the powerful with Mo Shangchen."
Lianyi left after she finished speaking.
Lian Xiye also tended to cooperate with Mo Shangchen, so he expressed his opinion, but of course he did not persuade the other three.
Du Yan and the other two did not want to miss this opportunity. Regardless of the outcome, the only chance they had at this stage was to use the Spirit Gathering Array in the City Lord's Mansion to advance to the Nascent Soul stage. They did not want to miss out on such a good opportunity, so they expressed their willingness to go together. At this point, everyone had a unanimous opinion.
Lianyi, who seemed considerate and left early, had already let Duoduo go to Lian Xiye's yard to lie dormant, so that he could not advance to the Nascent Soul stage no matter what.
