Chapter 149

At a round table not far away, Jean looked at a letter, let out a long breath after a while, rubbed her eyebrows, and burned it casually.

"How is it? Acting Grandmaster Jean, what did the bard say?"

Paimon, while gnawing on meat skewers, didn't forget to ask on behalf of Lumine, who was still a bit of a little mute.

Although Venti hadn't been in contact with Lumine and the others for long.

But after inquiring about some information about Venti in Mondstadt, Paimon decisively named this unreliable guy "the bard."

Hearing Paimon's question, Diluc not far away also quietly pricked up his ears to listen.

This group of people was forcibly put together by Lumine.

Diluc couldn't overcome Lumine's stubborn temper, and since Lumine also said that Jean could contact Venti and Alice, he just half-pushed and half-accepted it.

Diluc also knew a little about Venti and Alice going to cultivate.

But the specifics, what Lumine and the others said were ultimately not as comprehensive as Alice's.

Jean organized her language and said softly:

"Venti said that their cultivation in Liyue is going very smoothly; they successfully joined Shushan a few days ago and switched to the Dao of Cultivation."

"Nowadays, Venti is the Acting Chief of Shushan's Zhaoyang Peak, and Ms. Alice is an Elder of the Law Enforcement Hall."

"Lisa joined Dazhu Peak, one of the seven branches of Shushan, specializing in pill refining."

"As for Keli..."

Speaking of Keli, a trace of pride couldn't help but emerge in Jean's eyes.

"Because Keli's talent is too good, her comprehension is high, and her luck is excellent, she has been accepted as a disciple by Mr. Jiang Yan, the Sect Master of Shushan, and has become the Sect Master's first disciple."

"Nowadays, she is being cultivated wholeheartedly by the Shushan Sect Master."

Hearing this, Lumine widened her eyes in disbelief.

"Keli became a disciple of that Shushan Sect Master?"

"Are you kidding? Did that kind of existence really take a disciple?"

Kaeya sipped his wine and said casually:

"Isn't it just taking a disciple? Keli's talent is naturally good, her good luck is also well-known, and she is obedient and cute, so it's reasonable for the Shushan Sect Master to take a disciple."

"No! You don't understand at all!"

Lumine shook her head earnestly.

"That Shushan Sect Master is a proper cultivator, a cultivator at the Refining Spirit into Void stage."

"That kind of existence can easily destroy Teyvat with a backhand; Keli has hugged the biggest thigh!"

"And, the Sect Master's personal disciple, do you know what the Sect Master's personal disciple means?"

"The Sect Master's personal disciple is cultivated as the next Sect Master! The Shushan Sect Master, according to Sister Alice..."

"That is the proper leader of the righteous path in the cultivation world, the king sect in the entire cultivation world."

"Deep foundation, powerful background."

"If Keli really has the chance to become the Shushan Sect Master, let alone Teyvat, she can beat whoever she wants in the entire universe of trees and seas!"

Jean's expression was a bit awkward, and she said softly:

"Keli shouldn't have the bad habit of beating people up casually, and Venti said that the Shushan Sect Master is in his prime."

"He reached the late stage of Refining Spirit into Void at a young age, and his lifespan is conservatively estimated to be tens of thousands of years."

"The position of Sect Master is not something one can think about casually."

Lumine curled her lips and spread her hands:

"That's also the Sect Master's personal disciple; you'll know if you've read cultivation novels."

"The Sect Master's personal disciples are all the most important core disciples in the sect, and absolutely no accidents are allowed."

"In the future, I'm afraid no one will dare to touch a hair on Keli's head."

"Cultivators are very protective of their own; let alone touching her, if someone says one bad word about Keli, that Sect Master could probably slap the other person to death."

"Questioning the Sect Master's personal disciple is questioning the Sect Master; that's slapping someone in the face."

"Keli is already backed by the entire Shushan, ah! I'm so envious... I want to cultivate too."

Lumine let out a mournful cry and lay helplessly on the table.

Kaeya pondered for a while, recorded the information Lumine said, and then said:

"Acting Grandmaster Jean, did that lord say anything else?"

Hearing this, Jean pursed her lips and said helplessly:

"Most of it is complaining that the Geo Archon... that is, the current Chief of Dragon Head Peak, Morax, is too harsh on him."

"He either locks him in the Law Enforcement Hall to copy precepts or fines his spiritual stone salary."

"As for other things..."

Jean was silent for a moment and said slowly:

"Venti said that after he and Ms. Alice switched to the Dao of Cultivation, their strength improved by leaps and bounds, and they became much, much stronger."

"He even said that Lisa's current strength, when fully unleashed, is no weaker than a top-tier demon god's attendant."

"Keli, relying on the treasures given by the Shushan Sect Master and the techniques she cultivates, can also defeat a top-tier demon god's attendant."

"As for himself, he boasted that he went to the Eastern Sea of Shushan yesterday and beat up two existences from the Sea of Quanta that surpassed demon gods."

"I guess Venti wanted to tell us that after cultivating, he has now surpassed demon gods."

Hearing this, Diluc's hand pouring wine froze.

His heart was like a stormy sea, unable to calm down for a long time.

It was only a few days of cultivation...

Lisa could actually be comparable to a top-tier demon god's attendant?

Lisa's original strength was indeed not weak, but not that strong.

Venti was even more outrageous; surpassed demon gods in a few days?

Is cultivation really that powerful?

Diluc couldn't help but feel a bit more eager; he was looking forward to going to Liyue to cultivate.

"Besides that, Venti also said."

Jean continued:

"After he cultivated, solving Dvalin's problem would be easy."

"However, the Shushan disciples have a collective exploration mission these few days, and they need to go to a world called the Nine Nether Secret Realm."

"They said they are going to collect resources to exchange for contribution points and fight real cultivation monsters."

"He might not be able to come back in a short time; if we can't solve the problem, he will solve Dvalin's problem after he returns from the Nine Nether Secret Realm."

"Overall, it's all good news."

Lumine thought thoughtfully and suddenly said in shock:

"Nine Nether Secret Realm? Is it the ancient secret realm mastered by the legendary cultivation sect?"

As she spoke, little stars twinkled in Lumine's eyes.

A secret realm!

A place that the protagonist in cultivation novels must go to, full of treasures.

Wouldn't one get rich after this trip?

Lumine thought enviously and said again:

"Acting Grandmaster Jean, did Venti say what pills or Dharma treasures he got?"

"Lumine, you know these things very well?"

Jean asked subconsciously, and then thought that Lumine was a traveler herself, so she was enlightened.

"Indeed, Venti also mentioned these issues; he doesn't have pills and Dharma treasures for the time being, but Keli already has a full set of top-tier Dharma treasures personally crafted by the Shushan Sect Master."

"As for pills, currently only Keli has some, which were specially refined for her by the Sect Master."

"But others need to follow Shushan's rules and regulations, complete tasks, and obtain contribution points to exchange for pills."

"By the way, are pills and Dharma treasures very powerful?"

Hearing this, Lumine stood up immediately and waved her hands.

"Powerful! Very powerful!"

"In my impression, powerful pills can resurrect the dead, and there are many that can make people become strong directly."

"Dharma treasures are even more so, that is... that is..."

Lumine looked around for a moment and pointed at Paimon:
