Chapter 1298: Waiting
Chapter 1298: Chapter 1298: Waiting
The people who came here didn’t communicate with each other, even if their relationships were good before. Now is not the time to forge connections based on friendships.
Su Yuanyuan goes out every time someone comes out so she can hear their inner voices.
She learned a lot of unknown information and also got to know how chaotic it was inside.
Things inside are very pessimistic. Nineteen people came out from Xuantian Sect. Only fifteen came out from the Medicine Sect. The third to come out was from the Sword Sect, and supposedly, they had the highest combat power, but unexpectedly, only eleven of them were left, and three were seriously injured.
The leader of the Sword Sect was also injured, yet the Medicine Sect made a move; it’s unclear what conditions they offered.
Qi Hong was somewhat eager to try. However, he made no move as he knew the gravity of the situation. Currently, they were still in the dark here, so they decided to act low-key and only make moves once familiar with the place.
"Mom and Dad, I want to go to the Medicine Sect."
Su Yuanyuan and Tan Shaoting did not answer immediately.
The children have their own ideas, which means their family will be separated.
Qi Yan would definitely want to go to the Sword Sect; the two sons were to be separated.
They were worried about Qi Wen here; mother and daughter both had Water Spirit Bodies, making them easily treated as furnaces to be cultivated.
Su Yuanyuan sighed after a while. "Okay. If Qi Yan wants to go to the Sword Sect, that’s not a problem.
But Qi Wen has to stay with us."
Qi Wen smiled indifferently, "Mom, I have no objections. I don’t particularly want to join any sect."
"Qi Wen, can you wake up Gu Ersheng? Right now, we can only rely on him to help conceal Qi Wen’s physique."
Qi Wen did not ask why and tried to communicate with Gu Ersheng. To her surprise, he did come out, but his phantom seemed even fainter.
Tan Shaoting talked about the mother and daughter’s physique, something he had always been worried about. It was also the reason he instructed Qi Wen last time to avoid appearing in front of high-level cultivators.
"I have a way. I’ll teach them a concealment mantra. It can conceal not only the physique but also the Spirit Root. Don’t worry; there are few in this realm who can see through."
This was exactly what their family needed now.
After Gu Ersheng finished speaking, he wanted to leave but was stopped by Su Yuanyuan.
"What Spirit Roots do Qi Hao and Qi Xuan have? Are they in any danger?" Their family’s Spirit Roots were too exceptional. Qi Yan was an example—how could she not be worried?
"Qi Hao has a Single Fire Spirit Root, Qi Xuan has a Single Gold Spirit Root.
Also, Qi Wen should join Xuantian Sect." After saying this, he entered Qi Wen’s Sea of Consciousness again.
Now, the family began to learn this mantra. It was crucial for their future safety, so of course, they were eager to master it.
This was actually an Immortal World’s mantra. However, after Gu Ersheng modified it a bit, they were able to practice it too.
Tan Shaoting didn’t need it. He had Gold and Fire Dual Spirit Roots and no special physique. But he learned it to help conceal the younger ones. This would reduce a lot of trouble in the future.
After a full day, the whole family mastered it.
Tan Shaoting used Divine Sense to inspect their bodies, and their Spirit Roots and physiques were all concealed.
Only then did he thoroughly relax. Now, even if they encountered cultivators above the Golden Core stage, they wouldn’t need to fear.
Feeling somewhat relieved, Tan Shaoting’s tension finally eased.
While eating, the family discussed their future paths.
"Qi Yan and Qi Hong can join a sect. Since Gu Ersheng advised Qi Wen to join Xuantian Sect, then she should go there.
Your mother and I, along with Qi Hao and Qi Xuan, will live in the workshop under Xuantian Sect."
"Dad, aren’t you going to join a sect?"
Tan Shaoting shook his head, "No, there’s no benefit with our current cultivation level. Living in a workshop outside is more comfortable."
Qi Yan was a bit worried. He wanted to go to the Sword Sect, but he was anxious about leaving his parents.
"Dad, can Qi Wen manage on her own in Xuantian Sect?" Qi Hong asked.
"Second Brother, why not? I show as having Dual Spirit Roots, so I’m not at the base of the sect and won’t attract too much attention.
Besides, Mom and Dad are in Xuantian Sect’s workshop, so there’s nothing bad about it."
Tan Shaoting nodded. He was actually willing to join a sect, as it would provide protection when going out.
But Qi Hao and Qi Xuan were still young; they could consider it later. For now, they needed to secure the children’s places in the sects.
"There’s still a year before the ten-year recruitment, so we have a year together."
Actually, the sects wouldn’t want someone like them, unlike young prospects who were easier to manage, unlike Loose Cultivators.
However, their three siblings had promising Spirit Roots, which would be advantageous.
Su Yuanyuan had no objections; following Tan Shaoting’s lead here was not wrong.
Even though they were chatting, their Divine Senses were constantly monitoring the situation outside.
The Sword Sect’s severely injured three and two lightly injured have been brought back inside their array.
Su Yuanyuan learned some news about the Sword Sect. Truth be told, among a group of zealous men, things were less chaotic, and it would be beneficial for Qi Yan to go there.
Another group arrived, and only eight were left, each carrying injuries, looking particularly disheveled. Upon reaching here, they knocked on the Medicine Sect’s array, but there was no response at all.
Su Yuanyuan knew they were from the Beast Taming Sect, and judging by the situation, they were not welcome.
Listening to their inner voices, there was no goodwill towards them. It turned out that the spiritual treasures in their hands were snatched from a mid-sized family.
Su Yuanyuan guessed that the Medicine Sect didn’t intervene to avoid trouble. After all, the Beast Taming Sect did wipe out a team from the Zhuge Family. It would certainly form a blood feud.
The Beast Taming Sect had no choice but to leave an Array Plate and retreat inside to heal themselves.
Two more teams returned today. Among them, Li Xiaotong was left with only herself and two leaders. It was indeed rather tragic. Both were injured, and these seemed to be serious wounds, with one leader’s face lacking any color.
It turned out he had injured his Dantian. How could he cultivate in the future?
Li Xiaotong was extremely disheveled. Though she only suffered superficial injuries, she knew her fellow members from the Five Elements Sect had lost their lives because of her, so she sat gloomily aside.
It was her decision to ally with the Tian Family, not expecting that after finding the Spiritual Treasure, the Tian Family would turn against them. She was responsible for implicating her fellow members.
Su Yuanyuan thought to herself that such a person was truly a harbinger of disaster.
After learning of this information, Su Yuanyuan would inform her family. Just by staying here, the family could learn about many events.
"Why hasn’t the Nangong Family arrived?"
"The Nangong Family wouldn’t miss out; they just don’t need to fight."
Su Yuanyuan agreed that Tan Shaoting made a valid point.
Acquiring more information here, Su Yuanyuan acted like a relay station, relaying the updates to the father and sons.
"One more day remains; I wonder how many more people will return?"
