Chapter 387: Chapter 356: Saint_1

“What’s going on? What is really happening?”

Two young cultivators found themselves surrounded by a group of people, demanding that they fulfil their promise.

Right at this moment, not only was the behaviour of these two men suspicious, but those drawing the talismans also sensed something wasn’t right.

This was too much!

Counted casually, there were at least a hundred people.

A hundred Medium-grade Spirit Stones, such a huge loss in one go; even for a Great Cultivator at the Foundation Establishment Stage, it would be a significant blow.

Even a fool wouldn’t make such an absurd decision.

There was clearly something fishy going on here.

But why should it matter to me?

Even though everyone sensed something amiss, they chose to ignore it, focusing only on getting the Spirit Stones.

Some initially wanted to become disciples, but upon seeing the situation, they all started demanding to exchange for Spirit Stones instead.

“Everyone, calm down, calm down! Only the first person in line gets it! I’m sorry for those who came after!”

Thinking on his feet, one of the young cultivators shouted.

“Go to hell! You mentioned clearly earlier that everyone who succeeds gets it! Don’t listen to him! Grab them!”

Someone incited the crowd, and they stripped the two young cultivators clean, swarmed into the yard and grabbed whatever they saw, embodying the phrase ‘there’s power in numbers’.

On one hand, they were in the right. On the other hand, there was safety in numbers. Even if the enforcement team of the city arrived, they were not afraid.

Thus, the chaotic scene unfolded.

It was because they felt justified that they dared to act so boldly.

Everyone rushed in, fearing they wouldn’t grab the good items. Only Xu Mu walked to the wall, fingers like hooks, plucked the stone inscribed with Tao Patterns.

“This stone that can engrave Tao Patterns is not ordinary. Keeping it would mean my efforts aren’t entirely in vain.”

Xu Mu toyed with the stone as he turned towards the exit.

To him, this was nothing more than a farce.

He wandered around until the sun began to set, finally reaching South City.

At this moment, a long queue appeared in front of Xu Mu.

The queue was filled with low-level cultivators, all of them either injured or weak, visibly sick.

At the head of the line, a young lady dressed in plain robes, with an elegant figure, was treating people with acupuncture, using skills, medicine and stones.

From her looks, one could see a resemblance to Mo Wuxin.

This young lady was Xu Tiantian!

She had already reached the Perfection of Foundation Establishment. Being less than a hundred years old, her appearance was naturally that of a young girl.

Several low-level cultivators of various ages were assisting her at the scene.

Seeing these helpers, Xu Mu frowned slightly.

He did not recognize any of them.

He possessed the ability of a photographic memory and had been observing the whole Palace of Pure Heart through his Divine Intent for a long time. If he couldn’t recognize these people, then it meant they were not from the Palace of Pure Heart.

Given the status of the Palace of Pure Heart, they wouldn’t possibly recruit these low talented people.

“So, it means Tian Tian recruited these people from outside.”
