Chapter 1803

Falling into the same pit once is bad enough; doing it a second time is truly foolish.

Lingjian Zhenren does not do foolish things, nor would he fall into the same pit twice; Chen Chuyang is different, unlike others—this person excels at creating miracles, excels at lying low; you never know just how strong he is, how many means he has hidden, how many plans he has laid.

Inside Longshe Shan, he brought so many people—these people are all from that world, without exception they are people of firm resolve; once given the opportunity, they will rise swiftly, not to mention that he also provides them with resources. It is obvious that Chen Chuyang has occupied Longshe Shan, staying within the Mangshan Mountain Range, so the resource problem is no longer a problem.

Lingjian Zhenren guessed that the Mangshan Demon Palace must have reached an agreement with Chen Chuyang; otherwise, the Mangshan Demon Palace could not have risen so quickly. Diewumeng's cultivation rose rapidly, and others also gained great benefits— to say that Chen Chuyang's help was not involved is impossible.

Their cooperation is mutually beneficial, advantageous to both— why not do it? Chen Chuyang needs a large amount of resources, feeding back to that world to cultivate his own people; it is obvious he has been doing this for a long time, though exactly how many years, no one knows.

When everyone thought they were bound in that world, no matter how powerful, they could never reach the Dao Realm, assuming they would be sealed inside for life; as long as that world remained sealed and these people were not allowed to leave, then those inside would pose no threat.

Little did they know, Chen Chuyang had found other channels, secretly sending people to Tianwai long ago— perhaps he had sent many before, and those people all died; these days, Lingjian Zhenren has not been idle.

He investigated some matters, also looked into people from that world, uncovering a clue; although many of those people died, traces could still be found. After discovering them, he realized Chen Chuyang was truly not simple— deep-minded, and this person excels at lying low and planning for the future, having prepared the worst-case scenario in advance.

After the investigation, he only then had the idea of drawing closer to Chen Chuyang— he could not let this person become his enemy, but rather a friend; whether the Heaven Sword Sect can rise actually depends on this occasion, on his relationship with Chen Chuyang.

These years, the Heaven Sword Sect has grown increasingly weak, no longer as it once was, and needs change.

Starting from him, making changes— his reason for entering that world and creating the Spirit Sword Sect was to cultivate the disciples below, then to nurture capable disciples for the Heaven Sword Sect, to continue addressing the sect's shortage of disciples; each generation has few disciples, losing one is a heavy blow.

Over these years, as friction between Cangzhou and Lingzhou continued, the Heaven Sword Sect was on the front line, naturally bearing the brunt; many have died, and if this continues, the Heaven Sword Sect may not be able to hold up, possibly collapsing soon.

That world's plan failed, but the Spirit Sword Sect did not fail; he can communicate with that world again, thereby attracting a batch of disciples to join the Heaven Sword Sect, making up for its losses. Within the Spirit Sword Sect, many disciples have excellent talent— those disciples are worth cultivating.

For example, Ming Jianzi and Ming Wuzi— these two have the best talent, and other disciples are also outstanding.

"Chen Chuyang, this time I came, besides wanting to take Junior Sister Xinran away, there is another matter: I want to enter that world and take a batch of Spirit Sword Sect disciples."

Lingjian Zhenren voiced his idea; keeping those disciples in the Spirit Sword Sect would also be a waste of talent— better to let him take them.

"I can guarantee their safety, and I can guarantee they will receive the Heaven Sword Sect's cultivation, without burying their talent or harming them."

"Staying in that world would only bring them disaster; better to let them come to Cangzhou. Cangzhou is vast, and our world is also vast; all that happened before is in the past, and we can continue cooperating."

"The Heaven Sword Sect needs talented disciples, and you are also concerned about their future; our ideas coincide."

Chen Chuyang couldn't help but glance at Lingjian Zhenren a second time; he never expected that creating the Spirit Sword Sect had this purpose—to cultivate talent for the Heaven Sword Sect— so why would he do that?

He didn't understand; Lingjian Zhenren's actions were truly puzzling.

Lingjian Zhenren gave an embarrassed smile: "Back then I didn't know why, didn't know what I was thinking, I just did it in a daze; actually, I wanted…… to have Junior Sister unleash her potential. I know Junior Sister Xinran's talent is not limited to this; I wanted to test the limits of her talent."

"Only death can trigger it— who knows."

An accident occurred in the matter, and a person like Chen Chuyang appeared, ruining the plan.

Originally, all of this was within his plan; the other disciples of the Spirit Sword Sect also had their talent sparked by his actions— a pity.

"Your explanation is a bit… far-fetched." Chen Chuyang said doubtfully.

Lingjian Zhenren gave a bitter smile: "I also know you don't believe me; you say if I wanted to kill Junior Sister Xinran, why would I keep her confined? Wouldn't killing her outright be better?"

Chen Chuyang thought for a moment; it seemed indeed so.

"So you just messed up, huh?"

"Yes." Lingjian Zhenren scratched his head, feeling ashamed of his actions.

I never expected to lose— doing nothing, and yet I failed.

Fortunately, the outcome is still good; the Spirit Sword Sect is different now, Elder Xinran has become even stronger, her talent fully activated.

"Those disciples of the Spirit Sword Sect have reached their limit; staying in that world is still wasting talent, wasting their time. While they are young, they could have better prospects— Junior Sister Xinran, you won't let go, but others, you should let them choose freely."

"Furthermore, when I go to bring people out, what would they dare say? I can take them away openly."

Those people cannot block him, nor can they stop him.

Lingjian Zhenren still has that confidence.

"On my side there's no problem, but I have one condition: they must be willing to leave with you; if they are unwilling, you cannot force them." Chen Chuyang still wanted to add a safeguard, so he wouldn't act recklessly— if others were unwilling, yet Lingjian Zhenren insisted on taking them, it could cause an ugly scene, which would be bad.

"No problem, I still have principles, I won't act recklessly." Lingjian Zhenren breathed a sigh of relief; Junior Sister Xinran is utterly hopeless, but the other disciples can still be taken away. Having received Chen Chuyang's permission, his subsequent actions will face no obstruction.

"Chen Chuyang, thank you very much." Lingjian Zhenren expressed gratitude.

"Alright, you'd better be telling the truth; if you dare to deceive me, I don't mind bringing people to wipe out the Heaven Sword Sect." Chen Chuyang threatened Lingjian Zhenren, but he must not let him act recklessly— many of those people are his acquaintances, and he doesn't want them to come to harm; they are the key cultivators nurtured by that world, and keeping them there would also be a waste.

Moreover, over these years, many people have wanted to go to Tianwai; it can no longer be suppressed, and it's time to let a batch depart.
