Chapter 40: There Are Only Two People in the Sect

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

After packing up his things, Zhang Xuan brought Little Moon along and followed the old man.

At first, Zhang Xuan had planned to keep Little Moon in the familiar space, but after some thought, he decided that he couldn’t expose this, so he let Little Moon travel outside.

On the way out of the city, the old man started to chat with Zhang Xuan. “By the way, disciple, I still don’t know your name.”

“…”

‘Dude, I don’t even know your name, and you dare to accept a disciple like this.’

Zhang Xuan was speechless. He thought that the old man had investigated everything before coming, but he didn’t know him at all.

“Senior, I’m Zhang Xuan.”

“Ohh, Zhang Xuan. What a good name,” the old man praised, but it was obviously very perfunctory.

Zhang Xuan rolled his eyes. After only two minutes of interaction, he felt that the sage-like senior in front of him had become unreliable.

Before leaving, he knew that the elder’s surname was Jiang, but Elder Jiang didn’t reveal his identity. He only told Zhang Xuan that he would know once he entered the sect.

Zhang Xuan didn’t ask too much, but he couldn’t help but ask Elder Jiang, “Elder, can you tell me the specific situation of our Spirit Beast Sect? Is the Spirit Beast Sect really so weak?”

Elder Jiang’s expression was calm. “The world says that our Spirit Beast Sect is a small sect. Although our sect’s incense offerings are not as strong as those of the prestigious sects, our sect’s scale is not small.

“Outside of Yuan Wu City, our Spirit Beast Sect occupies more than ten mountain ranges, and we have thousands of miles of land, forests, and countless demonic beasts.

“The reason why these people are saying this is because raising demonic beasts is not the right path in their eyes, so they’re maliciously slandering our sect. Don’t mind what they’re saying!”

‘Holy shit, thousands of miles of forest and more than a dozen mountains!’

Hearing this, Zhang Xuan’s eyes lit up. This world was so small that ordinary people could not even leave a city in their entire lives.

The world of immortal cultivation was huge, so huge that the area of the entire world was comparable to ten blue planets. Therefore, even though the Spirit Beast Sect was at the edge of Yuan Wu City in name, the distance between the two places was actually thousands of miles.

It was the same for the other sects and cities. If they could be considered “far”, the distance was mostly several kilometers away. If it weren’t for the fact that cultivators cultivated spells and had various means of travel, it would take several months to travel from one sect to another.

However, Zhang Xuan had never seen a sect like the Spirit Beast Sect, which had more than ten mountains.

How big was the area? If the ground under the sect was so big, how big could the entire Spirit Beast Sect be?

Elder Jiang was right. Those people must have thought that the Spirit Beast Sect was unorthodox, so they started rumors to slander them. After all, demonic beasts were not welcomed in this world. The Spirit Beast Sect, which raised demonic beasts, was naturally not up to standard in the eyes of the so-called “orthodox” sects.

The two of them had yet to leave the city, and Zhang Xuan could hear the passersby pointing at him.

“He’s such a good young man. How did he end up in the Spirit Beast Sect? His future is ruined.”

“Old Man Jiang, you’re too old. You’re already so old, yet you don’t care about martial virtue. You’re deceiving and harming a young man. Is the Spirit Beast Sect a place that humans can go to?”

“No need to say anything more. After a long time, that young man will naturally realize how hard life is in your sect and withdraw on his own.”

“In my opinion, he’ll come back crying in three days at most!”

…

With Elder Jiang’s introduction, Zhang Xuan didn’t care about the rumors at all.

However, he was a little confused. Although the Spirit Beast Sect was a small sect, they did not make enemies everywhere. Why did everyone give them such a bad impression?

If it was just because he didn’t like it, it wasn’t necessary!

With these thoughts in mind, Zhang Xuan and Elder Jiang left the city.

After walking out of Yuan Wu City, Elder Jiang handed a wind-controlling talisman to Zhang Xuan. “Zhang Xuan, use this to travel. The journey to the sect is a thousand li, and if we walk, it will take a long time.”

“Alright,” Zhang Xuan said. “Wind-controlling talisman! ” He took the talisman and realized that it was the same as the one he had made.

However, Zhang Xuan didn’t reveal that he knew how to make talismans. Instead, he followed Elder Jiang in silence.

The old man and the young man rode the wind and crossed thousands of miles, arriving at a place with beautiful mountains and clear waters.

After landing, Zhang Xuan saw a tall mountain gate. The white jade pillars on both sides were carved with dragons and phoenixes. On top of the gate was a plaque with the words ‘Spirit Beast Sect’.

“We’ve arrived.” Elder Jiang said and brought Zhang Xuan in.

Zhang Xuan followed in and thought to himself. From the looks of it, the Spirit Beast Sect still had a good reputation. They weren’t as bad as the outsiders said.

However, when he entered the mountain gate, he was immediately dumbfounded.

He saw that there was not a single disciple on duty in the huge mountain gate. The field behind the door was thousands of meters wide, but it was empty. No one cleaned up the fallen weeds and leaves.

“Where are our disciples, Elder?” Zhang Xuan was completely stunned. The mountain gate was in such a mess, and there was not even a cleaner?

Elder Jiang turned around stiffly, and Zhang Xuan saw that his face was filled with awkwardness.

“Zhang Xuan, to be honest, I’m the only one in the sect. I’m the elder, the disciple, and the sect leader.”

“???”

Zhang Xuan was so confused.

‘Elder Jiang, what are you talking about? You’re the only one left in the huge Spirit Beast Sect?!

‘Oh my god!’

Zhang Xuan finally reacted. No wonder the elder was able to bet on the entire sect. He was the only one in here, so of course, he could do whatever he wanted!

Zhang Xuan recalled the words of those passersby, and his mouth twitched. This wasn’t just having no future, it was simply going bankrupt!

Seeing Zhang Xuan’s confused face, Elder Jiang touched his nose and said awkwardly, “Well, the mountain gate is indeed desolate. Zhang Xuan, if you don’t want to stay here, you’re free to leave. I won’t force you to stay.”

Elder Jiang didn’t make things difficult for Zhang Xuan. Maybe he also felt that he was embarrassed.

Zhang Xuan was stunned and waved his hand. “Forget it, forget it. Since I’m already in the Spirit Beast Sect, I won’t leave.”

Sect Leader Jiang was overjoyed. “Zhang Xuan, are you serious?! Alright, let’s go, let’s go. I’ll take you to see the heritage of my Spirit Beast Sect and those demonic beasts! Although the mountain gate is small, the sect’s skills have never been lost. Come with me, and I guarantee that you won’t have come in vain!”

Sect Leader Jiang was afraid that Zhang Xuan would go back on his words, so he pulled him into the depths.

Zhang Xuan didn’t reject and followed the sect leader to where the beasts were kept.

The reason why he stayed was up to his own considerations, and the reason why he joined the Spirit Beast Sect was to find a place to settle down.

As for the so-called resources, he didn’t care much about them. Of course, it would be best if he had them, but it didn’t matter if he didn’t. At most, he would continue to search for it in the future.

After passing through the luxurious-looking gate and courtyard, Zhang Xuan followed the sect leader to a fence. Before he even got close, he heard the roars of beasts from the other side.

The sect leader proudly introduced, “Zhang Xuan, look. Those are our beasts. They’re all rare beasts that the sect has caught for years.”

Zhang Xuan walked up. When he saw the various demonic beasts in the fence, his face was immediately filled with shock!
