Chapter 227: Forming an Alliance Again (1/2)
“That’s right. Actually, we are not the only disciples who came to Death Forest. Even Big Senior Sister and Second Senior Sister also brought some juniors in,” Ning Yan looked at the Shushan disciples in front of her before speaking.
“What? Big Senior Sister and Second Senior Sister also came? Then why didn’t we come in together?” Ning Wushuang was astonished.
“Actually, this time not only us, Huaxian Valley, if I have not guessed wrongly, lots of disciples from other sects also came. Especially those outstanding Golden Core disciples. The reason why we are not together is because we did not wish for our group to be too big, attracting the other sects’ attention. Our teacher’s astrology skill is very powerful, but it doesn’t mean that others won’t be able to manipulate it. Therefore, separate movement was to prevent other sects from interfering, particularly the other remaining nine great sects!” Ning Yan explained.

“Why is this so? Could it be because of that treasure? What kind of treasure is so alluring?” Ning Wushuang was very curious about what kind of treasure made her teacher place so much importance on it.
“I am not sure about the specifics. In short, Teacher said that the treasure trove appearing this time might be the biggest all these years. If we are able to get it, it’s very beneficial for the sect,” Ning Yan explained.
“Big treasure trove? But we only have this few people. Don’t even talk about the treasure, we might not be able to get past this Death Fantasy Ocean,” Ning Wushuang said with waning confidence.
“Actually, a lot people might not necessary be useful. With me around, as long as everyone is a lot more careful, safety is not a concern. Whether we will be able to obtain the treasure, it will depend on our destiny. If other senior sisters or junior sisters have the destiny, they will be able to locate the treasure trove. The chances of finding the treasure trove with everyone split up is a lot higher as well.”
“True. But I feel that this is still too dangerous. Our cultivation is so low and we are not able to assist senior sister in any way, and we have even become a big burden,” Ning Wushuang vexingly said.
“You mustn’t think of it this way. Actually, the other groups are also the same. They basically have a Golden Core disciple leading the group. This time, everyone came out to look for treasures, but most importantly was to let you gain experience. For the sect to look for treasures, isn’t it so that the sect can foster experts? As long as you are to gain some insights during this training, and your cultivation takes a huge leap, this is already helping the sect win over the best treasure. Therefore, all junior sisters must not undervalue themselves, and must have the fighting spirit and confidence in themselves. I hope that once the training ends, all of your cultivation will improve by a huge leap,” Ning Yan encouraged every junior sister.
“Thank you, Senior Sister. We will definitely work hard!” All the ladies heard Ning Yan’s words, and immediately became a lot confident.
“Senior Brother Wu Ming, look. This is the sign we marked!” It was at this moment, a Shushan disciple in front pointed at a vegetation and voiced out. That vegetation had a piece of blue cloth hanging on it. This was the sign they left behind.
“Junior Sister Ning Yan, what do you think we should do now?” Ning Yan walked over, so Wu Ming took down the blue cloth and asked.
“We can only look for a new path,” Ning Yan thought for a moment and said.
“We can only can do this then,” Wu Ming was quite disappointed. At first, he still hoped to show a dazzling performance in front of Ning Yan. For this kind of situation to appear, it was truly god’s plan supersedes human’s plan, a difficult to anticipate affair of life!
They both held onto the map. After that, they chose an optimal path, starting their journey once again. Two hours later, Wu Ming was in front leading the way while Ning Yan was still at the back, protecting the group’s safety.
“Be careful! Everyone don’t move!” Suddenly, Wu Ming felt that there was some movement in front, so he quickly warned everyone.
“Who?” Whoosh! Suddenly, a sword Qi flew over!
“Clang!” Wu Ming raised his sword, blocking the sword Qi! Knowing that the other party was a human cultivator, he immediately loosened up. After that, he shouted, ”Shushan Sect’s Wu Ming! May I know who sire is?”
“Haha! So it’s Junior Brother Wu Ming, hope you have been well!” Suddenly, a group of ten appeared in front of Wu Ming. The man leading appeared to be around 30-years old, looking a bit older than Wu Ming as he walked over with a smile and greeted.
“Eh? Isn’t this Huaxian Valley’s Fairy Ning Yan? How come you guys are together? Truly unexpected!” The man saw Ning Yan behind Wu Ming. At first it was surprise, but subsequently his face turned strange as he looked at the duo. It was known that Huaxian Valley was more estranged from all the sects in the Cultivation World. All the other sects wished to get close to Huaxian Valley; who asked them to have so many pretty ladies? However, he never expected that Ning Yan would actually be together with Shushan disciples, it was a truly difficult to anticipate affair of life!
“So it’s Canglin Sect’s Senior Brother Ling Hai. We just happened to run into each other,” Wu Ming wanted to speak, but Ning Yan had already explained. She did not wish for any misunderstandings to be spread out. When the time comes, it could turn into some weird rumors.
“Haha. That’s right. I have only run into Junior Sister Ning Yan coincidentally,” Wu Ming was very disappointed. Originally, he thought that he had made some progress with Ning Yan. He never expected that he failed. In order to not cause any dissatisfaction to Ning Yan, he also smiled and explained.
