Fantasy: I Can Instantly Comprehend Everything

182 A New Light

“You’re saying that this cripple you found with all his meridians broken is within the scope of the mission?”

“Tsk, such heavy injuries. Don’t tell me that you’re just casually putting on a missing disciple’s uniform to fake your points.”

“I’m not pretending! He is really one of the missing disciples! At the start, he was awake, but for some reason, he suddenly fell unconscious!”

“Believe me, he might wake up again in a while. The points for the missing disciples who are awake and unconscious are completely different. Old He, don’t tell me you’re trying to take some of my points!”

…

In his daze, Zhou Yun seemed to have heard an argument. Other than this argument, there were countless other noises around him, making it impossible for him to continue recuperating.

However, compared to before, Zhou Yun felt that his body was much better now. It was as if he had received a simple dressing, and his wounds were all bandaged.

More importantly, he could feel a small ball of spiritual energy in his body! Although it was insignificant, it was enough for Zhou Yun to use this small ball of spiritual energy as a catalyst to absorb even more spiritual energy to recover from his injuries!

Perhaps it was an injury medicine that contained spiritual energy. Could it be that he had really been saved? Was it the girl with two ponytails from before?

As Zhou Yun gradually woke up, the sounds around him grew closer and closer. He frowned and opened his eyes with great difficulty!

“What? He is awake! Hurry up and ask if he’s a missing disciple. With so many points, I can definitely exchange for a new spiritual sword!” The girl with two ponytails suddenly turned her head in the midst of the dispute and shouted while pointing at Zhou Yun, whose eyebrows were trembling.

Old He, who had been arguing, also stopped. He walked to Zhou Yun’s bed and waited for him to wake up.

At the same time, it seemed that Old He and the girl with two ponytails actions had attracted everyone’s attention, and many people gathered around Zhou Yun’s bed.

Zhou Yun felt a ray of light. The afternoon sun shone on his face without any cover. He could not help but cover his eyes and sit up straight.

“He’s awake!” One of them couldn’t help but ask. However, more people were holding their breaths, waiting for Zhou Yun’s next move.

“Where is this place?” Zhou Yun let go of his hand. He blinked his eyes to get used to the brightness before looking forward.

In front of him was a well-dressed, sage-like old man. Beside him was the girl with two ponytails who had stepped on Zhou Yun with her foot.

“Young man. Have you already woken up?” Old He slowly asked when he saw Zhou Yun wake up. He handed over a bottle of spiritual liquid.

When Zhou Yun heard Old He’s voice, he felt his entire body and mind shake, as if his injuries had been soothed. He took the spiritual liquid from Old He and drank it without hesitation.

If the other party wanted to harm him, he would not have to go through so much trouble!

Phew! Zhou Yun heaved a sigh of relief. The spiritual energy flowed down his throat and began to slowly nourish his dried-up body. Zhou Yun felt that with this bottle of spiritual liquid as a catalyst, he would be able to return to his peak in at most a month with the power of the Saint Fire Body.

Zhou Yun laughed bitterly in his heart. He didn’t expect that his powerful trump cards would also fall into such a situation.

“Young man, can you answer a few of my questions? Don’t worry, I’m just going to ask you a few questions.” Old He said slowly when he saw Zhou Yun walking over.

“Senior, please ask.” Zhou Yun looked at Old He gratefully. Of course, Zhou Yun deliberately ignored the girl with two ponytails who had discovered him.

“What’s the name of your clothes? Is it your own?” Old He thought for a while and asked.

“This is the uniform of the inner sect disciples of the Spirit Valley. It’s indeed my clothes.” Zhou Yun furrowed his brows. Although he did not know why the other party asked this, he still answered.

Spirit Valley was one of the five upright sects, and the five sects had decreed to protect their disciples. He believed that after these people heard the name of Spirit Valley, they would not easily attack him even if they had disloyalty.

“Spirit Valley? I see.” Old He narrowed his eyes and nodded while stroking his beard. Then, he continued to ask, “Do you know what this is?”

Zhou Yun saw Old He take out a nearly damaged token from his pocket. There was a faint word “Divine” on it.

“Divine Gate, it seems to be a sect.” Zhou Yun’s frown deepened. Where did these people get this thing? The clothes these people were wearing were not the clothes of any of the five upright sects. Could it be that they were also studying the truth of the world in a place unknown to the five sects?

Zhou Yun began to be cautious. If that were the case, then these people might want to overthrow the five sects. His status as a disciple of the five sects might not be of much use in the eyes of these people!

The expression on Old He’s face became more relaxed. He put away the broken token. In the end, Old He looked at Zhou Yun sternly, as if he wanted to confirm something.

“Cough, cough. Please don’t be shocked. Maybe you don’t know anything, but what I’m going to say next might subvert your understanding. My young friend, if your injuries are too severe and your cultivation heart is unstable, you can choose to listen to it later.

“But if you want me to say it now, I hope you won’t lose your immortal path because of this.” Old He said in a deep voice. There were more and more people gathered around him, and he was almost unable to suppress the voices of these people.

Zhou Yun’s brows were so tightly knitted that they were about to form a line. He looked at the people around him. Other than Old He, everyone else was around his age, and their faces were full of smiles.

Could it be that these people were planning to instigate his rebellion? They now knew the truth about this world. There was an even wider world beyond this world!

Did they want him to betray the five sects and study how to leave this world?

Zhou Yun sighed in his heart. Perhaps these people didn’t know yet. The five upright sects had long known the method to leave this world. He even led most of the cultivators and gathered 100,000 cultivators to form the Divine Gate’s Nine Heavens Array to fight against the thousand-year-old nascent soul heretic cultivator.

Zhou Yun still remembered the request of Venerable Xunling. Only by killing the heretic cultivator could they leave this world.

The result of that battle was still unknown. If Ling Qingyun was defeated, it was possible that other than Zhou Yun’s people, none of the 100,000 cultivators would survive.

Zhou Yun was thinking that it was better to be prepared. If these people wanted to recruit him to betray the five sects, he would just go with the flow and agree. While he cultivated, he could also let these people become a new force!

In any case, he would be able to recover his full strength in a month’s time. He would be invincible apart from Xin Yu!

Zhou Yun pondered for a long time and decided to act as if he was surprised. He wanted to blend in with this group of people as if it was the first time he heard that there was another world outside.

After that, he would find an opportunity to cultivate and kill Xin Yu to complete Venerable Xunling’s conditions and obtain the method to escape this world!
