Chapter 380: Chapter 256 Let Chen Mu Co_2 Chapter 380: Chapter 256 Let Chen Mu Co_2 Therefore,
After stepping into the Tendon Changing Realm, she, like the Inner Sect Disciples of various sects, road Yu County.
She had clashed with Sect Disciples and had encountered so perilous situations.
Although she was nearly twenty-three years old, her attainnt of the Tendon Changing Perfection realm and her swordsmanship and Sword Montum were not solely cultivated in a sheltered environnt.
Very soon,
Chen Yue and several Green-Clothed Guards arrived at the location of the earth fissure.
They saw that the fissure was about ten zhang long and three feet wide, more than enough to accommodate soone to enter and explore.
“My lord, the situation below is unclear, please allow to descend and investigate.”
One of the Green-Clothed Guards said respectfully.
“I’m willing to go as well.”
Another person volunteered eagerly.
...
There could be treasures beneath such fissures, but dangers like demonic creatures might also lurk there, not to ntion the possibility of a sudden collapse, burying people under.
Although descending to explore might reward them with treasures, if they were following an ordinary White-Clothed Guard, it’s unlikely so many would volunteer.
But, if the person they followed was Chen Yue, that was a different matter.
Although Chen Yue was now a White-Clothed Guard, everyone was aware of her high status.
Even ng Tianzhang, the Bureau Head of the Demon-Slaying Office, was very cordial upon eting her.
Gaining favor and support from Chen Yue ant a chance to soar to the heights, not to ntion the prospect of catching Chen Yue’s fancy…
A Wind Cloud List master’s brother-in-law?
What sort of status and identity was that?
Countless young n in Yu County longed to show their attentiveness in front of Chen Yue.
However, Chen Yue’s outward manner was very similar to Xu Hongyu’s back in the day, distant in her interactions with others.
Although not as arrogant as many Sect Disciples, she had never shown special regard to anyone.
“You go.”
Chen Yue’s gaze swept over the group and selected one.
Gaining experience in the Martial World did not an actively seeking danger.
For sothing like investigating a fissure, she naturally wouldn’t rashly descend herself.
Having soone volunteer was the best possible outco.
The Green-Clothed Guard who received Chen Yue’s permission took a deep breath, his expression first lifted, then he remained calm and serious as he slowly descended into the pitch-black fissure.
He quickly vanished from sight.
Chen Yue and the others waited nearby.
However,
As ti trickled by, there was no sign of anyone returning.
“…”
Chen Yue’s gaze narrowed slightly as she watched the fissure, while the other Green-Clothed Guards exchanged uncertain looks, and none of them volunteered to descend any longer.
In front of Chen Yue, it was fine to show eagerness, but when it involved life-threatening unknown risks, they thought better of it.
However,
Just as Chen Yue was gazing at the fissure, pondering whether to explore further or to mark the location and report back to Xu Hongyu, letting higher-ranking individuals deal with it,
Noises began to erge from within the fissure, as if soone was gasping for breath.
“Wu Yuan?”
Chen Yue was the first to notice the sound and called out toward the depths of the fissure.
“…Yes.”
The voice of the Green-Clothed Guard, Wu Yuan, returned from within the fissure, seeming to be out of breath, but apparently not in danger.
The nearby Green-Clothed Guards relaxed their tense expressions imdiately upon hearing this.
“Why haven’t you co up yet?
What are you doing down there?”
“Wu Yuan, you rascal, hurry up, what’s the situation down there?”
The guards urged from the edge of the fissure.
Soon enough,
There was a change inside the fissure, but the first thing to erge wasn’t the Green-Clothed Guard Wu Yuan, but a chunk of mineral about one zhang wide, heavy-looking and with a dark, deep color.
“Quick…
catch it…”
Wu Yuan’s breathless voice ca from below.
The Green-Clothed Guards above had already reacted, helping to haul the chunk of Black Stone up, and then they all revealed astonished looks, each eyeing the mineral with different expressions.
“Could this be Black Gleam Ore?”
“Yes, it’s Black Gleam Ore, and it appears to be of superior grade, suitable for forging Treasured Artifacts.”
Soone said in a low voice after careful inspection.
Even Chen Yue was slightly surprised; she wasn’t very familiar with various resources, but a mineral capable of forging Treasured Artifacts was undoubtedly very precious and of no ordinary value.
“Is it all like this down there?”
Chen Yue asked Wu Yuan.
With a smile on his face, Wu Yuan replied while catching his breath, “Yes, there’s a lot, but this piece is of the best quality, so I brought it up first.
There are many more of average quality down there, at least several hundred thousand jin, but we don’t have enough hands.”
Upon hearing this, everyone’s expressions changed, showing a hint of joy.
Although average quality Black Gleam Ore wasn’t sufficient to forge Treasured Artifacts, it could be used to produce Hundred-Refined Steel.
Several hundred thousand jin represented a small ore vein, and they would certainly receive generous rewards upon their return.
But at that mont,
An incongruous voice suddenly ca from behind.
“Huh, is there really several hundred thousand jin of Black Gleam Ore here?
What a coincidence.”
A group of figures wearing identical attire erged from the bushes behind.
They wore yellow linen with white short-sleeved robes, and each had a distinctive emblem embroidered on their chest, numbering five or six in total.
At the sight of these people, the Green-Clothed Guards’ expressions changed instantly.
“Heavenly Seal Sect!”
Soone said in a low voice.
In the current Yu County, the Seven Profound Sect held the largest influence, followed by the Heavenly Sword Profound, Blood Concealnt, Hehuan, and the other four major sects.
But, besides those four sects, there were other sects establishing a presence, Heavenly Seal Sect being one of them.
Heavenly Seal Sect and Linjiang Pavilion, these two major sects each occupied half of Liang State and were among the great sects of the Cold North Path.
Compared to Seven Profound and Heavenly Sword, they were slightly inferior, but the gap was not very large.
