Chapter 222 Veiled People. (1/2)

Mo Xie sneaked in the Sect after the turmoil had settled, he wishes to gather more things, such sect with apprentices and disciples cultivating would sometimes produce great types of herbs, sometimes, on rare occurrences, there would be a whole type of flower.

Since the people of this sect has little knowledge about herbs, he would likely want to 'borrow' anything that he had gained his acknowledgments, well, even those that would be of minimal benefit will be plucked!

His profession drastically downgrades from a medical saint's apprentice down to a lowly thief!

Still, Mo Xie didn't care, these herbs would be useless in the hands of these scums without any great alchemists on their side.

Mo Xie strolled every part of the sect, then, as the midnight arrives, he had planned to go get out of the sect and move on to the next one, yet, at this moment, he saw a group of people, more than twenty experts with their faces hidden in veils.

”Those are...” Mo Xie couldn't help but wonder as he found the spiritual energy surrounding these people familiar.

Like some sort of instinct, Mo Xie followed them but maintained the distance of 50-meters away from the group.

A few minutes had arrived after the group had silently wondered there and about, Mo Xie was actually kind of astounded, all of the places that they went were the place which the herbs had been growing, well, was.

Every time they arrived at a location, one of them would even fume in anger, sadly, Mo Xie's hearing is not yet that adept hence couldn't hear what they were muttering to each other.

After taking their time around the sect, they had ultimately arrived at their location, the Mourning Sun Sect's grand hall.

Mo Xie's brows lift up and then frowns: ”They must have ties with the sect...”

Mo Xie thought that these people are merchants that wish to buy the herbs that he had picked up today, hence, he couldn't help but chuckle as he sneakily entered the grand hall from the roof.

”Hong Lee, where are the herbs that were lingering in your sect a few weeks ago?” One of the veiled people spoke.

They didn't remove their hats, the veil is connected on it, hence, their faces couldn't be seen.

Mo Xie couldn't help but chuckle hearing their words, he then started to visualize their faces in his mind... 'A horse, a monkey, a pig, an ogre, an elegant elf that was sacrificed to an ogre and was brutalized a million times...'

He started to think of their faces and couldn't help but laugh.

Hong Lee frowns: ”Hmmp, a band of thieves stole it! I was in turn, brutally beaten up, you can see my face now as a result!”

Mo Xie frowns; 'You calling me a thief? In 10 days, you will know what it means to call me such!'

One of the veiled people frowns and replied: ”Oh, to think that thieves have such control that they only had beaten you up leaving behind everything intact, they even gently plucked the herbs around your sect nicely!”

Hong Lee's face flushed, the only visible damage that happened in the sect were the walls that he had been blown in to, all of the disciples and apprentices were either training or sleeping.

But then, Hong Lee realized something: ”Wait, you guys knew that those grasses here in my sect were herbs? Were you all planning on snatching it yourselves!?”

At Hong Lee's words, the veiled people slightly cough as they had been seen through, neither had they declined nor nods their heads, merely stayed silent.

One of them then changed the topic: ”To think that one of your uses has vanished, well, if you are still part of the plan, you can just offer something valuable now.”
