Primordial Cultivator-Chapter 259 - Malicious Scheme

Yang Wei remained dazed for a moment before shaking his head. 'Sigh, I can never understand their mindset.'

Yang Wei sighed inwardly as he smiled at the gift that Elder Shan left behind for him to use when the time was right.

He then walked over to the outer disciples as he clasped his hand.

"First of all, how many are you going to actually follow my instructions?" Yang Wei asked once he got everyone's attention.

The outer disciples were silent as they didn't know the answer themselves.

Yang Wei wasn't upset by their response. It was only logical that they doubt themselves when their lives are on the line. f𝓇𝘦𝒆𝘄𝑒𝗯𝑛𝗼ѵ𝙚l.𝒄𝘰𝓶

Why would they trust their life for someone who they had just met?

"You don't have to lower your head and feel ashamed. Even though Elder Shan said to listen to me, I won't restrict you guys. After all, your life is your own and not mine." Yang Wei then walked toward a corner to wait for Elder Chen Xue's next announcement.

Meanwhile, the outer disciples started discussing among themselves whether or not to follow Yang Wei.

"I'll say, we should trust Yang Wei. Elder Shan seemed to look at him in high regards." One of the disciples said as she gave her reasoning.

"Hmm, that's indeed logical since he's the only inner disciple among us. Also, he had explored the mystery realm and came out alive. I heard the death rate in the mystery realm was at least 90 percent."

"Tch, you're all thinking too highly of him. I bet he just slept his way with Elder Jing and hugged her legs to survive." Wan Ping sneered as he got their attention.

He stood up and said, "Think about this clearly. Why would an outer disciple be qualified to join a mystery realm in the first place?"

The outer disciples gasped in surprise as they all forgot about this important factor. It was indeed a mystery why Yang Wei was able to qualify to enter such a grand event.

"Wan Ping is right. I heard that when Yang Wei first joined the sect, he was nothing more than a beggar."

"Ah, that rumor. I thought it was a malicious rumor at first but then, other disciples that had joined at the same time as Yang Wei was saying the same thing."

They continued to discuss further before Wan Ping held a wicked grin on his face as he stood up.

"Then I shall relay our plan to Yang Wei." Wan Ping said confidently as he walked over toward Yang Wei. f𝔯𝒆𝚎𝚠𝑒𝚋𝓃૦νℯƖ.co𝘮

He held a vicious glint as he snorted. "Yang Wei, we have decided to not listen to your instructions and go our own way when we enter the Misty Forest."

'Hmph, how dare you act arrogantly to me? I'll make sure you're stuck alone in the Misty Forest without any assistance.' Wan Ping sneered inwardly as he expected Yang Wei to be shocked by their decision.

However, Yang Wei opened his eyes slightly as he nodded his head.

"Suit yourself then." Yang Wei gave a nonchalant reply as he closed his eyes and focused on his cultivation, not bothered by their decision.

Wan Ping twitched his mouth as he stayed for a bit longer. 'Tch, acting all high and mighty. Just wait till you're stranded in danger.'

Wan Ping lifted his sleeves as he returned back to the outer disciples. They then continued to discuss their plan without including Yang Wei.

Meanwhile, Yang Wei continued to focus on his soul force. Since they chose to fend for themselves then his duty as their senior is over. He no longer has an obligation to save their petty life.

'Elder Shan, it's not that I don't want to help them but they chose to believe a scoundrel.' Yang Wei exclaimed inwardly.

Sometime later, Elder Chen Xue rose to the air as he announced. "It's time, everyone gathers around. We'll be splitting into 10 groups and I'll be leading the disciples with the highest cultivation base."

And he continued, "In the meantime, one group with the lowest cultivation base shall be grouped in one area and be the scouting team."

Elder Chen Xue then snapped his fingers and multiple disciples started floating in the air as they were thrown into a specified area.

After everyone has been rearranged, Yang Wei was dumbfounded to see everyone in the Feather Wind Sect was in the same group as him.

However, the most alarming factor was the fact that the Purple Scorpion Sect disciples were in the same group as them.

'This can't be a coincidence right?' Yang Wei had an ominous feeling that Elder Chen Xue had purposely forced them to be in the same group.

His suspicions were soon to be proven true when Elder Chen Xue pointed his finger at Yang Wei's group.

"You- given the fact that all of you have the worst cultivation base, you are now assigned to be a scouting team. Your job is to advance forward and warn us of anything you spot." Elder Chen Xue said.

Yang Wei narrowed his eyes when he realized no one seemed to be surprised by this arrangement aside from their own group.

'Killing two birds with one arrow huh.' Yang Wei snickered inwardly as he understood Elder Chen Xue's motive.

The Purple Scorpion Sect was the only sect to utilize poison and no one would want to be in the same group with them. As for the Feather Wind Sect, due to their achievement in the mystery realm. Everyone wanted them to fall as soon as possible out of jealousy.

"Is there a problem?" Elder Chen Xue raised an eyebrow as he exuded a dominating pressure around them.

The pressure was intense as everyone had fallen to one knee as they couldn't withstand Elder Chen Xue's prowess.

Yang Wei knitted his brows as he decided to follow everyone despite not feeling a single thing from the pressure.

After his increased strength in soul force and Lian Fu's test, it had become extremely hard to pressure him with aura alone.

Elder Chen Xue held a blissful expression when none of them uttered any complaint as he waved his hand and released his pressure.

"Since there's no complaint, you shall head out at once."
