Chapter 660 -663: Wulan Sect
Boom…
The giant serpent, weighing several tons, fell instantly from mid-air. It struck the clear pond with a force that churned up massive waves.
“Duanmu, are you alright?” the girl hurried toward the man with the large saber.
“I’m fine!” The man shook his head.
The three of them stood on the shore, watching Xiao Han, who remained suspended in mid-air.
Xiao Han hadn’t expected himself to have the courage to face the giant serpent. He didn’t even know how formidable the serpent was, let alone its origins and background. Yet, he had slain it. Being in this Different World Space already felt like a dream to him, and now, he had even killed a giant serpent.
“Young brother!” At this moment, someone on the shore shouted at Xiao Han, “Thank you for drawing your sword to help!”
Xiao Han was startled for a moment, then hurriedly descended.
“No… no problem!” Xiao Han scratched his head and said, “If it hadn’t been for you, I might already have become that giant serpent’s meal!”
“You should be thanking me!” the girl said playfully.
Xiao Han glanced at her. She was a very pretty girl with delicate facial features, snow-white skin, and flowing long hair. She also had a piece of golden armor on her chest, obviously some kind of shield. She held a bow and arrows, exuding a heroic air.
“Young brother, you… are not from around here, are you?” the man in hemp clothing asked.
“Ah?” Xiao Han said awkwardly, “Right, I’m not. I’m also lost and don’t know where this is.”
“This is Fengyang Country.” The man in hemp clothing smiled, then said, “My name is Duanmu Ci and this is my younger brother Duanmu Lei. This is my junior sister, Yang Jinfeng.”
The beautiful girl in front of him was actually named Yang Jinfeng. Although the name wasn’t particularly impressive, she was indeed very pretty.
Xiao Han smiled, then said, “My name is Xiao Han.”
“Where are you from?” Duanmu Ci asked curiously.
“From…” Xiao Han was about to speak when Yang Jinfeng interjected, “Duanmu Ci, let’s quickly take the snake gallbladder and leave. The blood scent will attract wild beasts soon.”
Duanmu Ci was stunned for a moment, then said, “Right right, let’s move quickly!”
After that, the three of them, not minding Xiao Han, hurriedly started extracting the snake gallbladder.
Once they had removed the snake gallbladder, the three of them were ready to leave, satisfied.
Duanmu Ci looked like a straightforward and robust man, with strong muscles and a square face that exuded authority, holding a large saber in his hand. Next to him, Duanmu Lei appeared much smoother. Although he wasn’t very talkative, his eyes revealed that he was no ordinary character.
“Young brother, would you like to visit our Master’s Sect?” Duanmu Ci asked with a simple smile.
“Can I?” Xiao Han stood behind them, actually quite eager to understand more about this world. After all, he didn’t have a way to leave anytime soon.
“Of course!” Duanmu Ci nodded and said, “As long as you don’t mind that our Wulan Sect isn’t very prestigious!”
“How could I!” Xiao Han shook his head.
“Then let’s go!” Duanmu Ci smiled.
Along the way, the four of them chatted and laughed.
Duanmu Ci also told Xiao Han about some things concerning this land, but Xiao Han was obviously somewhat unclear. The only clear thing was that this was a land where the strong preyed on the weak. Only those with great strength had the right to survive, and those who were weak were destined to be bullied and even taken as slaves.
The Wulan Sect was a rather unremarkable sect on this continent.
“Brother Xiao Han, up ahead is our Wulan Sect!” Duanmu Ci spoke up.
“Hmm!” Xiao Han nodded, seeing a mountain in the distance with mist swirling around its peak, indicating it was likely a feng shui treasure land. Otherwise, Wulan Sect surely wouldn’t have chosen such a place to settle.
Duanmu Lei pulled Duanmu Ci aside and whispered, “Big brother, is it really okay to bring a stranger back with us?”
“What’s wrong with that?” Duanmu Ci laughed. “Remember, this young brother saved my life!”
Hearing this, Duanmu Lei fell silent.
Yang Jinfeng smiled and said, “Let’s hurry up, we’re almost there.”
“Let’s go!” The three quickened their pace.
They soon reached the foot of the mountain.
At the mountain’s base, there were some villagers who were followers of the Wulan Sect. Centered on the Wulan Sect, residents and villagers for hundreds of kilometers around were believers in the sect. Although Wulan Sect was not particularly prominent on this continent, it indeed had quite a few followers.
After reaching the mountain, Xiao Han saw a large hall. Green bricks and tiles were hidden among lush green woods. Three large halls were arranged together surrounding a large square, in the middle of which stood a massive cauldron.
“Senior brother, you’re back?” A number of people warmly greeted them after reaching the mountain. They didn’t seem too curious about Xiao Han.
“Junior sister!” Many greeted Yang Jinfeng with a smiling face.
After reaching the mountain, Duanmu Ci hurriedly said to Yang Jinfeng, “Junior sister, take brother Xiao Han to the guest room, and I’ll go see the master with Duanmu Lei. We’ll also give him the snake gallbladder for alchemy.”
“Okay!” Yang Jinfeng nodded. She smiled at Xiao Han, “Xiao Han, let’s go. I’ll show you around our Wulan Sect.”
“Alright!” Xiao Han was also curious.
Along the way, Xiao Han felt as if he were dreaming. Everything seemed as insubstantial as towers in a lake or flowers reflected in a mirror.
Yang Jinfeng led Xiao Han into the side room, a sparse room with simple decorations, a wooden plank bed, a washbasin, and a glass mirror, and that was all—absolutely nothing else.
Xiao Han smiled and then asked, “Will I be staying here?”
“Yes!” Yang Jinfeng nodded, then asked curiously, “Xiao Han, where do you come from?”
“I come from Huaxia Country,” Xiao Han quickly replied.
“Where is Huaxia Country?” Yang Jinfeng asked, puzzled.
“In a far place to the east!” Xiao Han quickly replied.
“Oh!” Yang Jinfeng nodded, then said, “Come, let me take you on a tour of our Wulan Sect!”

Xiao Han immediately followed her out.
Yang Jinfeng was also enthusiastic, explaining to Xiao Han with a smile, “Don’t look down on our Wulan Sect, but here, we have many masters.”
“I can see that,” Xiao Han nodded, saying, “All of you are so formidable, it shows that there must be quite a few masters here.”
“Of course!” Yang Jinfeng nodded proudly, saying, “But, you’re not bad either. To be able to pierce that giant serpent with a single sword strike.”
“It was just luck,” Xiao Han scratched his head.
As Yang Jinfeng was showing Xiao Han around, suddenly, Duanmu Ci’s voice came, “Junior Sister, Master wants to see Xiao Han.”
From a distance, Duanmu Ci called out.
“Coming!” Yang Jinfeng nodded.
The Wulan Sect was not large; apart from three large halls, there was also a row of side rooms behind, where the disciples of the Wulan Sect lived. These three halls were where the three elders of the Wulan Sect practised. Thus, ordinary people could not enter.
Yang Jinfeng led Xiao Han towards the great hall.
The great hall was very magnificent.
One could see the hall built from huge stones piled up, the gaps between these boulders so tight that not even a piece of paper could fit through. This showed the strict construction standards of the great hall. Xiao Han followed Yang Jinfeng inside.
The threshold of the door was also quite high.
Inside the hall, there was a huge stone statue. It was indistinct who the statue depicted. Beneath the statue, an old man with white hair and a white beard was sitting cross-legged.
“Master,” Yang Jinfeng ran excitedly inside.
“Jinfeng,” the old man opened his eyes, revealing a tender smile, and said, “Thanks to you for killing the Demon Snake and obtaining the snake gallbladder, otherwise, my wound would have taken much longer to heal.”
“Hehe…” Yang Jinfeng giggled, saying, “It’s all Xiao Han’s doing!”
The old man looked up at Xiao Han and then said, “Young man, we owe you a lot this time. Otherwise, who knows when my wound would have healed?”
“Don’t mention it!” Xiao Han shook his head, saying, “At the time, I just lent a helping hand; it wasn’t anything major.”
“Young man, I heard you are from outside?” the old man asked.
“Yes!” Xiao Han nodded, saying, “I came out to gain experience, but I didn’t expect to end up getting lost.”
“Oh!” The old man listened, nodded, then said, “In that case, you can stay at our Wulan Sect for the time being. Whenever you want to leave, you can.”
“Thank you!” Xiao Han nodded.
In the side hall.
Duanmu Lei was inside, reporting to the Second Elder of the Wulan Sect.
“Master, I didn’t expect that he would easily kill the giant serpent,” Duanmu Lei said through gritted teeth, “It’s my fault!”
“It has nothing to do with you!” The Second Elder’s face darkened, saying, “The plan failed. Now that the old man has the snake gallbladder, he will soon be able to recover from his injuries.”
“Yes!” Duanmu Lei nodded, saying, “What shall we do now?”
“Even if he succeeds in alchemy, it will still take some time for him to recover!” the Second Elder sneered, saying, “How about, tonight we take the opportunity to kill this old man, and then I can smoothly take over the position of Sect Leader.”
“What?” Duanmu Lei panicked, “This… is this really okay?”
“What’s not okay?” The Second Elder sneered, saying, “Since ancient times, countless have been killed. What’s one more to us?”
“I…” Duanmu Lei was a bit panicked.
“Once I take power, I will immediately betroth Yang Jinfeng to you,” the Second Elder smiled.
“Alright!” Hearing this, Duanmu Lei immediately nodded, saying, “Then tonight, I will follow Master and strike at the great hall!”
“Hmm!” The Second Elder nodded.
The Second Elder originally wanted to replace the Sect Leader and had secretly poisoned him. He was waiting for the poison to act so that he could smoothly succeed to the position of Sect Leader, but unexpectedly, the old man found an antidote and obtained the Medicine Primer. Seeing that the Sect Leader was likely to recover his Primodial Qi smoothly, the Second Elder could no longer keep his composure and decided to kill the man.

Xiao Han stayed at the Wulan Sect for a day.
Having tasted the local cuisine, which truly wasn’t as delicious as that of the real world, Xiao Han mused that if the food from the Hanmen Restaurant were brought here, maybe they would swallow their tongues in delight?
