Chapter 1340: Chapter 1294: The Xuanyin Sect’s Scheme (4)

Li Yuanshou heard this, and his mouth twitched fiercely.

What’s going on!

That’s not what I meant at all, okay? Is your brain not working, or did I not make myself clear?

"Elder Li, I won’t let you down, right? If there’s nothing else, I’ll be on my way!"

Ye Guichen turned to leave.

Watching Ye Guichen’s back, Li Yuanshou’s expression was frighteningly dark.

"Hmph, kid, whether you really don’t understand or you’re pretending, once you enter the Spirit Beast Sect’s territory, it will be beyond your control."

Li Yuanshou muttered to himself, already having an idea on how to handle Ye Guichen.

Anyway, unless he strips off a layer of Ye Guichen’s skin, Li Yuanshou won’t rest.

Merely a yearly profit of a few hundred spirit stones to tie me down, you really are naive.

The next day, before dawn, everyone was brought to the trial ground.

The trial ground was very spacious.

In the distance, mountains still loomed densely.

But unlike Xuanyin Sect, this was the Spirit Beast Sect’s domain.

When the Spirit Beast Sect was established back then, it was for convenience in taming demon beasts, so the sect was built in a beast-rich mountainous area.

This not only facilitated capturing demon beasts but also allowed them to maintain their original vitality.

The place where the Lingceng Sect is located is called the Sanyue Mountains.

It stretches reportedly for hundreds of miles, with demon beasts roaming and many high-level demon beasts present in the mountains.

The trial contents are very simple.

They were given seven days, and if they could come out of the Sanyue Mountain alive after seven days, they could become Inner Sect Disciples of Xuanyin Sect, enjoying the treatment of Inner Sect Disciples.

Of course, if they couldn’t make it out or were eaten by demon beasts, then they could only fend for themselves.

Moreover, Xuanyin Sect’s upper echelons also said that if someone could capture a demon beast back, they could directly be promoted to Direct Disciple.

The higher the rank of the demon beast, the more favor you would naturally receive.

If one could capture a demon beast above rank three, they could become the Sect Master’s disciple.

These temptations not only didn’t dampen the enthusiasm of these new disciples but made them even more excited.

Who doesn’t want to soar to the skies?

"Haha, I must strive this time; if I capture a demon beast, I’ll be set!"

"Who says so, let’s go together, then we can look after each other."

"No problem, no problem, let’s become Direct Disciples together."

Many people were already forming groups.

Some of them were people who already had cultivation.

But among the three thousand people, over eighty percent were still ordinary people; those like Ye Guichen and Qin Muge, who had cultivation, were rare.

Ye Guichen looked at those mortals, confidently speaking about capturing demon beasts, and couldn’t help but shake his head and sigh.

If they really encounter demon beasts, they wouldn’t even know how they died, let alone capture one.

It seems this world is not short of some delusional individuals.

However, Ye Guichen became even more puzzled.

If there are really many wild and demon beasts in the mountains, throwing these ordinary people who haven’t even practiced inside is just letting them die, isn’t it?

Suddenly, a horrifying thought surfaced in his mind.

Could it be that Xuanyin Sect actually intends for them to die?

But if that’s true, why would they do this?

Ye Guichen’s pupils contracted.

The more he thought about it, the greater this possibility seemed.

Recruiting so many people at once, and a large portion of them being useless, is inherently illogical.

Now sending them to die further illustrates that there’s a great conspiracy involved.

"Let’s go, Brother Ye, why are you still standing there? We’re just right, a group of four, let’s go kill some demon beasts for fun!" Qin Muge seemed a bit excited, pushing Ye Guichen.

Feng Chuchu also batted her big eyes, obviously extremely curious: "Yes, yes, let’s go kill demon beasts. I wanted to kill demon beasts before, but my father said it’s dangerous and never let me out. Now it’s fine; I finally have the chance to show my prowess."

Ye Guichen didn’t say anything, just nodded quietly, glancing at Hua Nu.

Hua Nu happened to meet Ye Guichen’s gaze and chuckled bitterly.

Among this group, besides himself, Hua Nu seemed to be the only one with any sense.

But clearly, Hua Nu now also only guessed a vague idea and didn’t know the whole matter.

"Let’s go, let’s just go in and take a look first." Ye Guichen knew that if Xuanyin Sect really had a conspiracy, he’d surely find out about it.

Thinking too much now is useless.

Moreover, since this is the Spirit Beast Sect’s domain, he came for a purpose, and with this opportunity, he naturally couldn’t miss it.

Only, just as the four of them entered the deep mountains of the Spirit Beast Sect, a pair of eyes coldly focused on them.

"Ye Guichen, you really shun the path to heaven and insist on storming into hell."
