Chapter 281: Decision! (1/2)
“Senior Sister, are we really going part ways with them? Isn’t following him good? If we journey on our own, what if we come across those demonic beasts?” After dinner, when they returned to their own camp, Ning Xue questioned Ning Yan’s choice.
“That’s right. We have our own mission to do. Now that we have arrived at the core of Death Forest, we need to leave in order to search for Death Shrine!” Ning Yan confirmed.
“But we can still follow that guy! Aren’t they also searching for Death Shrine? Furthermore, with him around, our safety wouldn’t be much of a concern,” Ning Wushuang voiced out her opinion.

“Their objective has coincided with ours. But if we have truly discovered Death Shrine, do you think they will split a portion of it with us?” Ning Yan spoke.
“This…” Both of them hesitated. Cheng Yu seemed to be extremely magnanimous, but everyone had obviously come with the same objective in mind. Besides, there were actually three different factions in their current group. If they were to discover the treasury, it was very obvious that the treasures had to be split into three different portions. Most importantly, Cheng Yu’s side had the lowest amount of people and would be obtaining the most of the best treasures around. In addition, if Death Shrine was to be filled with a large amount of treasure, Huaxian Valley and Cangling Sect would most likely be receiving a bare minimum. After thinking it through, Ning Xue and Ning Wushuang knew that parting ways was a must.
“But Senior Sister, if we are to part ways, what if they discover the treasury before us? Wouldn’t we not be able to receive even a portion of it then?” Ning Wushuang still harbored some feelings of unwillingness.
“You think there’s only our group within Death Forest? Because that strange forest has become normal, I believe lots of other groups have also made it here. Who dares to be so sure that they would definitely locate the treasures? All in all, it boils down to luck,” Ning Yan’s thoughts were a lot more focused than the other two.
“But if we were to part ways, wouldn’t it be more dangerous for us since we have so few people?” Ning Wushuang questioned.
“That’s why we have to search for big and second senior sisters to converge with them. This way our opportunities will increase,” Ning Yan explained.
“Converge? Senior Sister, the core area is so big. How are we going to search for them? Besides, we can’t be sure that they made it to the core area as well. Isn’t this the same as searching for a needle in a haystack?” Ning Wushuang wasn’t confident in the separation idea.
“Who says they aren’t in the core area?” Ning Yan smiled.
“Senior Sister? How come you know that they entered the core area? Could it be that you are in contact with them? How is that possible?” Ning Xue was shocked.
“Although I can’t contact them, I can sense their location. Therefore, this is also one of the reasons why we must part ways!” Ning Yan expression turned serious.
“Senior Sister, is this true? How did you do that?” Both of them were surprised. They had never knew that Ning Yan possessed such an ability.
“Take a look! This is the sensory pearl our teacher gave me. Both your big and second senior sisters have also received one. A portion of our spiritual soul is stored inside these pearls. By relying on it, the three of us can sense each other’s positions. Thus, we are able to locate each other,” Ning Yan took out a white pearl that had three different colored filaments.
“Sensory pearl? Why haven’t I heard from teacher before?” Ning Xue had never once thought that there was such a mysterious pearl.
“Wait until you are to lead a group of people on an important mission, then teacher will give one to you!” Ning Yan kept the pearl away as she spoke.
“So it’s like that!” Both of them seemed to have understood everything.
“Alright. Actually, I know what both of you are thinking. If fate allows it, you will surely meet him again,” Ning Yan commented.
“Senior Sister, what are you talking about? I’m just worried about our safety!” Ning Xue took a quick glance at Ning Wushuang as her face subconsciously turned red.
“Alright. I will not speak much about this. Go rest! We will leave tomorrow morning!” Ning Yan smiled.
“Senior Sister, you can’t bear to part ways with that scoundrel?” Leaving Ning Yan’s resting area, Ning Wushuang asked Ning Xue.
“Who says so!? I’m just worried about our Junior Sister’s safety. I think you are the one who can’t bear to! Otherwise, why are you so unwilling when Senior Sister mentioned about parting ways?” Ning Xue blushed once again.
“I’m not! Similar to you, I’m just worried about our junior sisters’ safety. Alright. It’s late. Let’s go and rest,” Ning Wushuang spoke perfunctorily before running away.
