Chen Daoxuan couldn’t help but clench his fists and stomp his feet in frustration, feeling the pain of losing over a thousand system points.
Daoist Luo Wu alone yielded over three hundred system points from his own spatial ring. If they had looted the entire sect’s treasures and collected all the spatial rings from everyone else, it would have been worth at least a thousand or even more.
Chen Daoxuan regretted his earlier decision. If he had known, he wouldn’t have created so many Sky Monuments and leveled Luo Heaven Sect to the ground. There were other ways to wipe out the sect and still preserve the precious treasures.
“Master! Are you okay? Are you feeling unwell?”
Leng Yanran, who had been standing nearby, was alarmed when she saw her Master suddenly clutching his chest and showing a pained expression. She quickly stepped forward and reached out to massage his chest.
“No, it’s just some painful memories. By the way, from now on, our Heavenly Dao Pavilion should emphasize frugality. When dealing with enemies in the future, remember to collect their treasures before taking action. After all, we shouldn’t waste valuable resources, right?”
Chen Daoxuan was taken aback by Leng Yanran’s sudden closeness, but he appreciated her concern. He gently held her hand to reassure her that he was fine and gestured for her to step back.
Having her so close was making him slightly uncomfortable, as her hair occasionally brushed against his cheek, tickling him.
However, he still wanted to emphasize the point he made earlier and advised Leng Yanran not to waste resources.
“Yes, Master. In the future, when I annihilate enemies, I’ll make sure they surrender their treasures before I strike.”
Leng Yanran blinked, a bit puzzled about why her Master suddenly cared so much about the worthless items he had mentioned earlier. However, she decided to follow his instructions without questioning them.
“Um, never mind. That’s the general idea. You understand.”
Chen Daoxuan raised an eyebrow, somewhat surprised. His adorable disciple seemed to have quite a ruthless streak in her. He had merely suggested collecting resources from enemies, but somehow, by the time it reached Leng Yanran, it had become a plan to wipe out entire factions.
But none of that really mattered. As long as someone provoked his Heavenly Dao Pavilion, they would face annihilation, and he would gladly accept the accompanying system points.
Little did he know that his beloved disciple, in the northern region, had already become infamous for her ruthless and swift killings, earning her the title of the “Demoness of Mass Slaughter.”
“By the way, Master, there’s something else. Daoist Yang Chun mentioned that a secret realm will open in the northern region in two months. It’s rumored to contain the legacy of an ancient immortal.
“It should hold numerous treasures, and various major powers from the northern region, or even elsewhere, may come to try their luck. Master, would you like your disciple to go and explore it?”
Leng Yanran finished speaking and stood by quietly, waiting for her Master’s decision.
Initially, she believed her Master wouldn’t be interested in such matters. However, after he mentioned the need for frugality and collecting valuable treasures, she decided to propose this exploration idea. Her intention was to collect a substantial amount of treasures from the secret realm for her Master.
As for the so-called legacy left by an ancient immortal, Leng Yanran had no interest. What inheritance could compare to the techniques her Master had passed down?
Upon hearing about the secret realm, Chen Daoxuan pondered for a moment. Currently, each breakthrough required a thousand years of cultivation. If he were to use system points for breakthroughs, it would be an exchange rate of one thousand points for each realm.
With just over four thousand system points accumulated, he could only advance to the Fifth Layer of the Sea of Qi Realm at most, not even reaching the Void Sky Realm.
If Leng Yanran’s strength improved, he could gain rewards, but her progress wouldn’t be sufficient to meet his expectations.
Secret realms typically contained abundant treasures and opportunities, often attracting geniuses from various regions. If any Saint-level talents were present, Chen Daoxuan might even consider accepting another disciple during this opportunity.
When the time comes, not only will valuable treasures be exchanged for a substantial amount of system points, but there will also be an additional disciple.
