Chapter 303: Chapter 198 Conspiracy
Li Shiming left Tiantang Country, and in his hand, he now held a Communication Plate that could be used across the Beishu Continent, enabling the use of long-distance communication arrays.
With the Communication Plate, he could directly contact Yin Shilan within the range of the Thousand Illusion Sect and its allied sects.
On the other side, Yin Shilan and Liang Yexuan rode the Flying Boat back to their sect, with Yin Shilan wearing a faint smile, lost in her thoughts.
It took a while before Yin Shilan realized Liang Yexuan hadn’t made a move and turned to look at her.
“Senior Sister, are you preoccupied with something?” she softly asked.
“Junior Sister, I urge you not to tell anyone about Li Shiming going to the Shushan Sect, not even Master Luo!” Liang Yexuan pleaded earnestly.
...
“But why?” Yin Shilan hadn’t expected Liang Yexuan to be pondering over this matter all the way and asked curiously.
“I didn’t know Li Shiming, though having three spirit root seeds, could comprehend Sword Intent during the Qi Refinement Realm. Had I known, I would have introduced him to join our sect. Joining the inner sect would not be an issue, and maybe he could even become a Sword Cultivator Golden Core for the sect!” Liang Yexuan explained somewhat regretfully.
What worried her more she did not express; she didn’t know if Master Luo was intentionally suppressing Li Shiming but actually had high hopes for him, which could be why he was only offered the qualifications of an outer sect disciple.
Those elders most cherish such actions; this is called forging of a disciple.
“Okay, I won’t tell anyone!” Yin Shilan was in good spirits; she was aware that Li Shiming was safe and could keep in touch with him often, so whether Li Shiming joined the Thousand Illusion Sect or not didn’t really matter to her.
In her heart, she had considerations about which sect Li Shiming should join.
As he walked and observed, he unwittingly arrived at a place in the town center marked by the Shushan Sect insignia.
Xu Chuan had mentioned that showing a token here could connect him to Xu Chuan’s master, Elder Su.
Seeing the Shushan Sect insignia, Li Shiming took a deep breath, finally reaching his destination after braving the journey through the Ten Thousand Great Mountains’ Spiritual Beast Territory to obtain the Mu Yang Three-leaf Clover.
“At a friend’s request, seeking an audience with Elder Su!” Li Shiming lightly pressed his hand on the large door which had a formation, using this method to alert the cultivators inside. He used his spiritual power to send a voice message inside.
Concerning a Golden Core Elder, whether the invitation was real or not, the response from the inside Shushan Sect cultivators was extremely swift.
“Do you have a token?” The door opened, and a Mid-stage Foundation Establishment Cultivator scanned Li Shiming with Spiritual Thought and asked with a grave voice.
This manner of scanning with Spiritual Thought was extremely impolite, but given that the other party was a cultivator of the Shushan Sect and this place was at the foot of the Shushan Sect’s mountain, it was tolerated.
Li Shiming suppressed his dissatisfaction, took out the token but did not hand it over.
The Mid-stage Foundation Establishment Cultivator glanced at the token, scanned it once more with Spiritual Thought to confirm its authenticity.
“Stay in the town and wait for news, I will pass the message!” The Mid-stage Foundation Establishment Cultivator spoke indifferently and then closed the door.
A look of astonishment flashed across Li Shiming’s eyes. Knowing Xu Chuan’s identity as a True Disciple, carrying a token of a True Disciple, yet this Mid-stage Foundation Establishment Cultivator was still so discourteous. Could it be that all the cultivators of the Shushan Sect were so haughty?
He shook his head and left the place, thinking of an inn he had noticed on the way here; he made his way towards that inn.
“Senior, what kind of room would you like?” A Qi Refinement Realm shopkeeper saw the incoming Foundation Establishment Cultivator and greeted him with a smile.
