Chapter 5 The Voyeur Comes Knocking
Having pondered this, Wang Yan looked up again and asked Di Nan earnestly, "Was the senior brother who took you from Fire Refining Peak appointed by your master? What is this senior brother's cultivation level?"
"Who else does the senior sister from Dan Ding Peak mentor? Are there any who know medicine? Who is in charge?"
"Should we only go to the Tier 1 Mystic Beast Zone and not the Tier 2 Mystic Beast Zone?"
Hearing Wang Yan ask so many questions in one breath, Huo Erdan was surprised and slightly opened his mouth: "Hey, Yanzi, why did you suddenly think of asking these questions? I didn't even think of that!"
Wang Yan glanced at him, too lazy to explain.
Di Nan's eyes lit up, filled with admiration and appreciation. After a few moments, he answered in a deep voice.
"My senior brother Qiao is my master's formal disciple, a Xuanpo Realm cultivator. He was assigned by my master to mentor me, and he takes good care of me."
"Jiang Shijie of Danding Peak is my grand-grand-niece. She has studied medicine and alchemy at both Danding Peak and Renyi Peak. She has already reached the early stage of Xuanpo. This mission will be based on her needs."
Before Di Nan could finish speaking, Huo Erdan exclaimed with delight, "A senior sister who knows medicine? Hey, Yanzi, many others don't necessarily have a senior brother who knows medicine when they go out, let alone a senior sister! This is a great opportunity!"
Di Nan stared intently at Wang Yan: "I thought that with Senior Sister Jiang here, we could receive the fastest treatment if we got injured, which is why I came to invite you."
"Wang Yan, we grew up together. I can't knowingly drag you and Erdan to your deaths. This is indeed a good opportunity for training, and it would be a pity to miss it."
is it?
Wang Yan's eyes flickered.
Fire Refining Peak, focusing on weapon crafting, still possesses considerable combat strength and sent two members. Pill Cauldron Peak and Benevolent Physician Peak each sent one member, effectively equipping the adventure team with a doctor and an alchemist. Since they were only gone for two days, the workload during those two days must have been quite heavy, so the healer accompanied the team to prepare for healing injuries.
Of course, this does increase security somewhat.
He glared at Huo Erdan: "Let Senior Brother Di finish speaking. Senior Brother Di, are these the only people here?"
"Of course not." Di Nan shook his head as expected: "There will also be a senior brother from Fire Refining Peak, and a senior sister from Pill Cauldron Peak will also go together. For now, it is planned to only operate in the first-tier mystic beast area."
"Senior Brother Qiao said that this is my first mission outside the home. Once I complete three missions in a row, as long as I don't make any mistakes, I can become Master's formal disciple."
Perhaps!
Wang Yan's heart skipped a beat again.
With one more person added to Fire Refining Peak and one more person added to Pill Cauldron Peak, it's as if a pill master has been added as well.
Aside from the absence of Zhan Tianfeng's people, this team's configuration is indeed quite impressive.
If we go, we could encounter second-tier mystical beasts at any time, which would be life-threatening.
However, if handled properly, the gains can be considerable, and strength can be improved sooner.
So, are we going to take the risk?
Seeing that Wang Yan did not speak immediately, Di Nan cautiously looked around again and lowered his voice: "Wang Yan, Senior Brother Qiao told me quietly that Renyi Peak, Danding Peak, and our Huolian Peak are all planning to recruit a few nominal disciples who are suitable for them."
"If you help me complete this mission, Senior Brother Qiao should recommend you to my master."
"Furthermore, if you get along well with my senior sister this time, she is proficient in both medicine and alchemy, which will be helpful to your cultivation in the future. You are meticulous in your work, and perhaps she will be satisfied with your performance and recommend you to the senior uncles of Dan Ding Peak."
Alright, the news that Renyi Peak, Danding Peak, and Huolian Peak are going to expand their enrollment has started circulating in a small circle!
Moreover, ordinary medical practitioners would not easily abandon the injured...
Fine, let's give it a try!
Seeing the disappointment and grievance in Huo Erdan's eyes, Wang Yan relaxed his brows and calmly replied, "I can go. But you, Senior Brother, need to talk to Steward Qiu in person."
Upon receiving this response, Wang Yan immediately felt a sense of relief, and the flow of his profound energy within his body became much smoother.
"Indeed, one needs to be bolder in this world and cannot shrink back."
Huo Erdan, who had been feeling disappointed, immediately brightened up with joy: "Yanzi, you agreed? That's great! I knew you wouldn't want to leave me and would come with me!"
Wang Yan thought about Huo Erdan's previous concerns and didn't bother to point them out.
Di Nan's expression relaxed, and a relieved smile appeared on his square face: "I'll go find Steward Qiu now, you all come along too!"
Half an hour later, having received permission from Steward Qiu, Di Nan happily arranged a meeting place with Wang Yan and Huo Erdan two days later, and then left with a smile.
Wang Yan saw him to the door, then glanced suspiciously at a certain spot outside.
A robust, sharp-faced boy, comparable to Huo Erdan, had been secretly eavesdropping.
At this moment, the boy looked at Di Nan's back with resentment, glanced in their direction again, and then sneaked away.
"Who is this person? What is he looking at? Does he want to go with Di Nan, or is he trying to sabotage the mission? I need to be careful!"
However, considering Huo Erdan's personality, Wang Yan didn't tell him.
After dinner, under the colorful sunset, Wang Yan and Huo Erdan, who was eager to practice, headed to the martial arts hall where the second-level spiritual sprout disciples gathered.
But along the way, the strong, pointed-faced boy from noon also came along with the other spirit sprouts, glancing at them from time to time, but never getting close.
Until they entered the deafening martial arts arena together.
Here, the young cultivators at the second level of spiritual sprout each found an opponent, and they fought fiercely, using the divine combat techniques taught by their sects.
Feeling the clash of the divine powers, Wang Yan felt a real urge to fight.
But on the other hand, Wang Yan couldn't help but sigh.
For example, when a spirit sprout leaps up, the phrase "lighter and faster than a flying bird!" is used in combination with the character "神" (divine).
For example, someone might throw a punch head-on, using the phrase: "A powerful punch that can shatter a large rock, with at least a hundred pounds of force!"
"Are the literati here all out of their minds? They're only scratching the surface with the most superficial metaphors, lacking any real depth. Has no one thought of: 'Light as a feather when leaping, heavy as a thousand pounds when punching'?"
Wang Yan was feeling both regret and excitement when the burly, sharp-faced boy from before suddenly turned cold and walked towards him: "You're Wang Yan, from the same village as Senior Brother Di Nan?"
They were acting suspiciously before, but now they've come knocking on our door again?
Wang Yan had just cautiously admitted it when he saw the young man's eyes flash with contempt: "With your cultivation at the mid-stage of the Profound Movement Realm, you dare to accept Senior Brother Di Nan's wilderness gathering order? Aren't you afraid of being bitten to death by the mystical beasts of Mangshe Mountain?"
The boy's voice was loud, and several second-level Spirit Sprout disciples who were fighting nearby stopped and looked on in surprise.
"What? Wang Yan is actually going to go on a gathering mission in the wild with Senior Brother Di?"
"Oh dear, he's only been a Level Two Spirit Sprout for a month and a half, and he dares to go into the wild? Could it be that the effects of that mutated Crazy Hemp Grass haven't worn off yet, and he's still acting crazy?"
