Chapter 195: Guarding

Chapter 195: Guarding

Dan Yihu's greatest concern was that once his whereabouts were exposed, cultivators from the four major sects at the Foundation Building level would swarm in and capture him, taking him to the Flying Swan Sect for the reward. He had no expectations of the integrity of these cultivators from the four sects. If that situation were to arise, it might also expose the hiding places of the other members of Twin Success Valley, making Dan Yihu the eternal criminal of the valley.

As for killing to cover his tracks, Dan Yihu wasn't confident in silently taking down a Foundation Building cultivator. He was decisive, which was why he was entrusted with important tasks within the sect. After some consideration, he carefully weighed the pros and cons.

"Alright, I promise you, we split the items in half," Dan Yihu said with a tone that concealed his inner anger.

Knowing the situation was beyond his control, he chose not to engage in pointless disputes and decided to tolerate it for the time being. Dan Yihu took out a storage ring and a storage bracelet, packing various items from the secret library inside.The original appearance of this chapter can be found at Ñøv€lß1n.

In the Endless Sea of Sand, it was rare to find such a large storage magic tool with such capacity. The Deep EarthSpirit General silently observed Dan Yihu's actions without saying a word. Dan Yihu understood that he couldn't make any subtle moves in front of another Foundation Building cultivator.

Having filled about half of the items from the ground into the storage magic tool, Dan Yihu then walked up to the bookshelves, intending to collect all the books and jade slips. However, the Deep EarthSpirit General waved his hand, sending out a stream of true qi to interrupt Dan Yihu's actions.

"I said, everything here is divided equally between the two of us, fifty-fifty."

"These are all the heritage texts of my Twin Success Valley, not some spiritual stones or materials," Dan Yihu retorted with a hint of frustration.

"The heritage texts of my Twin Success Valley cannot be leaked."

The Deep EarthSpirit General remained silent, gazing calmly at Dan Yihu. After a moment, it seemed that Dan Yihu couldn't bear the pressure any longer and gritted his teeth, saying, "Fine, fifty-fifty then."

Ruan Dadao continued grumbling, but seeing that nobody paid him any attention, he fell silent for the rest of the journey. The five of them successfully returned to Date Spice Oasis.

Regarding the distribution of the spoils among their disciples, none of the five had any objections. As for whether they would occupy Date Spice Oasis, they discussed it and decided that each of the four major sects would leave behind a group of Qi Refining stage disciples. After all, there was a Second Rank spirit vein here, and they couldn't just abandon it.

Shi Weida also expressed his willingness to stay at Date Spice Oasis and have the Spirit Plant Date Palms divided among the four sects. After transplantation, the spirit field would be empty, and Shi Weida wanted to cultivate more spirit grain to supply Singing Sand City's needs. He planned to recruit numerous loose cultivators for this purpose.

Truth be told, despite occupying a considerable territory, the four major sects lacked manpower, especially Foundation Building stage cultivators, whose numbers were insufficient to manage everything effectively.

After the battle, Ruan Dadao and the others left, but Meng Zhang decided to stay and help Shi Weida stabilize the situation. Most of the resources in Date Spice Oasis were taken away by the four major sects, including many mortal residents.

Shi Weida managed to get in touch with Gu Tanghai and recruited a group of cultivators from Singing Sand City to assist in managing the oasis. Under Meng Zhang's protection, the Deep EarthSpirit General secretly transported all the treasures from the secret library back to Taiyi Sect.

With the Deep EarthSpirit General guarding Taiyi Sect and a simple organizational structure in place, the various disciples were able to handle their responsibilities. Meng Zhang staying in Date Spice Oasis didn't hinder Taiyi Sect's operation.

Meng Zhang had long been fed up with the events that had taken place in the territory that originally belonged to Twin Success Valley. Now that he had some time, he tirelessly patrolled the area, dealing with the various loose cultivators who came to plunder—either by killing or driving them away.

After multiple battles, Meng Zhang had gained experience and became more proficient in combat. The numerous souls of fallen cultivators left him with a hint of a bloodthirsty aura.
