Chapter 386: Chapter 293 Human Sentiments _1

Chen Mobai: “Isn’t Lei Nation Zhou Wangshen’s territory?”

Yuan Chiye: “He was taken by Zhou Laozu. The Sect Leader can’t just go to Divine Wood and ask Zhou Laozu for him.”

Hearing this, Chen Mobai was slightly stunned.

If that was the case, then Meng Hong stepping down early was actually a good thing. With Zhou Wangshen’s background and talents, if he cultivated the Taoist Body of Eternal Life, indeed no one in the sect could compete with him for the position of Sect Leader.

Now, thanks to Chu Zuoshu acting as a buffer, Chen Mobai might even have a chance in a few decades.

E Yun: “When are we leaving?”

Yuan Chiye: “I was initially thinking of leaving after the grand sect competition, but last night the sect leader had the witchcraft division send over related documents. He probably wants me to set off as soon as possible.”

Hearing this, E Yun and Chen Mobai furrowed their brows. The two looked at each other and sensed something was off. freeweɓnøvel.com

E Yun: “Junior Brother Yuan, this matter might be suspicious, so be careful.”

Chen Mobai: “The Sect Leader is not such an impatient person.”

Upon hearing this, Yuan Chiye nodded slightly. He had already felt that there was something wrong, and now after hearing the two’s words, it confirmed his suspicions.

E Yun: “If I remember correctly, Brother Luo should be returning to the sect this year after his tenure as a town guard.”

Under the Divine Wood Sect, they command four countries. Every ten years, a Foundation Establishment cultivator is dispatched to guard the territories. This is considered one of the tasks within the sect that is not given much attention. While it provides a significant amount of contribution points and Spirit Stones, there is no place as abundant in spiritual energy as Giant Tree Ridge for cultivation.

However, precisely because not many people are willing to go but cannot be left unattended, the Divine Wood Sect has a rule.

Every Foundation Establishment cultivator who wishes to hold a key position among the three Halls and twelve divisions within the sect must have the experience of guarding the four countries.

After Shan Hongyi returned to the sect, E Yun had already taken over the position of town guard of Yun Country.

Yun Country borders Yun Meng Ze, and he spends a lot of his time supervising the development of the number one spiritual realm in Eastern Wilderness. As long as he doesn’t encounter a catastrophic loss due to a beast tide, E Yun could greatly increase his strength, influence, and even Spirit Stones after saving up for ten years.

By the time his duty as the town guard ends and he returns to the sect, E Yun can use these ten years’ savings to attempt to break through to the middle Foundation Establishment stage.

If he succeeded, he would be in contention for the position of Sect Leader. If not, he might at most end up as one of the heads of the twelve divisions or vice hall master of one of the three main halls.

Before Meng Hong stepped down, he had at least arranged a path of ascension for his disciples.

Lei Nation also borders Yun Meng Ze and was assigned to Zhou Wangshen. Last year, a Spirit Stone Mine was discovered. Before Luo Shupin’s tenure as town guard ended, Zhou Wangshen was already eagerly going there to negotiate with the local Immortal Cultivation families and establish his presence.

“About the deficit in Spirit Stones, Brother Luo definitely knows the inside story. The reason he did not reveal it to the Sect can only mean one of two things, either the higher-ups are suppressing it, or he has encountered a problem in Lei Country.”

Yuan Chiye was not entirely without preparation. After receiving the Sect Leader’s order, he had already begun investigating related people and affairs.

“You mean… betrayal.”

E Yun directly mentioned that term, while Chen Mobai remained silent after hearing it.

“Or he could have been controlled by opposing forces. After all, Brother Luo is only in the early Foundation Establishment stage.”

Yuan Chiye, however, was not in a position to make such a judgement, and his comments were more discreet.

Either way, Luo Shupin, the Divine Wood Sect’s town guard of Lei Nation, had most definitely run into issues regarding the Spirit Stone deficit.

“Brother Luo comes from a cultivation family in Yun Country, which is just under my command. After the grand sect competition, I plan to visit the Luo family to probe for any information.” E Yun broke the silence, however, he seemed to suddenly recall something, turning to Chen Mobai, “In recent years, due to Brother Luo, the Luo family has sent quite a few people to the sect. At least two who tested with Chen Junior Brother back then have shown good promise.”

When the Divine Wood Sect was conducting Spiritual Realm testing in Yun Country, although E Yun did not show his face and Yuan Chiye was in charge, E Yun was observing behind the scenes and remembered a few individuals with extraordinary Spiritual Roots.

This was precisely why E Yun was able to rush to the scene when Chen Mobai was being robbed by South Mountain Thieves.

“The Luo siblings, they reached the ninth level of Qi Cultivation last year. Luo Yixiu has a deep pool of spiritual power, and his spells are well-practiced. If he hadn’t met a True Inheritor, he might have been considered for the twenty-four sequence, while Luo Yixuan is slightly inferior.”

Yuan Chiye was well-informed and began to explain all this in detail as soon as E Yun asked. Before Chen Mobai could say anything, Yuan Chiye had already explained everything.

“After the grand sect competition, you, using my token, invite them to drink tea in my courtyard.”

E Yun nodded his head and instructed Yuan Chiye.

Upon hearing this, Chen Mobai remained unmoved and did not say anything.

“By the way, Brother E Yun, you obtained a demonic beast inner core last year in Yun Meng Ze. Does it represent that our sect is preparing to cast the demonic beast Foundation Building Pill once again?”

Chen Mobai asked about another matter. Last year, the Divine Wood Sect reaped massive rewards in Yun Meng Ze, particularly when E Yun and Hong He, two Sect Foundation Establishment cultivators, jointly hunted down a Rank-2 Peak Pig Baolong.

“Indeed, the Sect Leader has already ordered the head of the alchemy division to put aside other alchemy duties and fully concentrate on casting Foundation Building Pills.”

“It seems, the Sect Leader wants to pave the way for your Junior Brother Mu Yuan before stepping down.”

Yuan Chiye said teasingly.

After Chen Mobai reached Foundation Establishment, Mu Yuan had been holding the top position among the True Inheritors for three consecutive years.
