Chapter 282

The two were chatting as they passed through the protective mountain formation of Zhican Valley and arrived inside Zhican Valley.

From the outside, Zhican Valley appeared to be two tall, steep and dangerous mountain peaks. Once inside, there was a feeling of sudden openness, like entering a paradise.

Before their eyes were filled with colorful flowers and green leaves. With green mountains and clear waters, and sounds of birds and fragrances of flowers. Although called a valley, when looking out, there seemed to be no boundaries, like a prairie.

Many trees, many flowers, and many spiritual herbs were planted in the valley, with immortal birds and divine beasts appearing among them, and pavilions and towers faintly visible, with cultivators flying about.

If Dao Sword Sect gave an image of high-flying sword immortals, then Zhican Valley was one of an ethereal aura of immortal maidens.

After entering the mountain gate, there was a high platform that offered a panoramic view to take in the whole valley. Everyone who entered Zhican Valley would surely be shocked by this picturesque, painting-like, paradise-like scenery before their eyes.

Especially Qin Ran.

Seeing this dream-like scene, he couldn't control his excited heart, and walked forward to the edge of the platform, greedily enjoying the fairyland scenery.

At least for him, this was the cultivation environment he had been longing for in his dreams. This was what he hoped his Danyun Peak would become.

Elder Sun walked over, his smile contained some pride as he said, "How is it, very different from Dao Sword Sect right!"

"It's so beautiful!" Qin Ran exclaimed.The initial posting of this chapter occurred via N0v3l.B11n.

The aroma of Zhican Valley was also very pleasant, with the organic fusion of the fragrances of medicine, grass and flowers. Qin Ran greedily enjoyed the scenery and greedily breathed in the fragrant smells.

After admiring the scenery for a while on the platform, they flew down under Elder Sun's lead, entering the picture-like scenery.

The wide and tidy roads of Zhican Valley criss-crossed the valley, with strange flowers and plants or spiritual trees or herbs planted in open spaces by the roadside. Occasionally there were servants and medicine slaves busying about, or disciples learning in situ, altogether portraying a harmonious scene.

Continuing inwards, there were more and more disciples. Sometimes there were disciples sitting by the road reciting medicine materials, medicinal theories and pill formulas. Sometimes there were disciples practicing supernatural abilities in small squares. Sometimes there were disciples experimenting with spells in the spiritual fields. And even more, there were groups gathered in squares, either showing off or teaching, and starting alchemy lessons right there in the squares. Altogether it portrayed the scene of an alchemy sanctuary.

"What a great alchemy atmosphere!" Qin Ran praised.

"Lots of learning, observing and practicing, that is alchemy," Elder Sun said.

Qin Ran also saw the spiritual fields, and the envy in his eyes overflowed.

"So Elder you were waiting for me here. I can't drink alcohol. Drinking hinders things..." Qin Ran struggled symbolically.

"Hey! We cultivators, what is there to fear from drink?!"

In the end, Qin Ran was still dragged up to the second floor by Elder Sun. In the center of the second floor, a table was already laid out with exquisite delicacies and fine wine.

Then, along with Feng Feiyan and two disciples brought by Elder Sun, the five were seated according to status.

One cup of wine followed another, the tasty food was barely touched, but the wine was steadily poured down. The wine was spiritual wine, able to intoxicate immortals. Even though Qin Ran was made of water, by the end he had lost awareness and needed to be supported to the guest room.

Elder Sun's disciples settled Qin Ran and Feng Feiyan, then fed Elder Sun sobering pills.

"And Elder Qin?" Elder Sun awoke and ladled himself a bowl of soup to rinse his mouth, then asked the disciple behind him.

"He's already passed out drunk, settled in Lingzhi Pavilion," the disciple replied.

"He actually dared to get truly drunk..." Elder Sun ladled another bowl of soup and shook his head laughing. "Should I say he's gutsy, or foolish?"

"Refusing to join Zhican Valley despite the invitation... stubbornly sticking to Dao Sword Sect."

"Not seeming as cautious and wise as Elder Jian described... Could Elder Jian have done it on purpose? To get more spiritual stones?"

The disciple didn't dare reply, only took out a slip of paper and handed it to Elder Sun, saying, "This is what Feng Feiyan secretly slipped to the disciple when Elder Qin wasn't looking."

Elder Sun took it and saw the graceful writing: "Elder Jian has likely passed away. Elder Qin was sent by the sect leader, quite calculating, fearing he will cause trouble, please assist me in getting rid of him."

"Jian Yuanjie is dead?" Elder Sun frowned. "That kind of person can also die?!"

"How did he die? Accident or discovered by Dao Sword Sect higher-ups?" He put down the soup bowl, fingers rubbing the paper, pondering deeply. "Has Zhican Valley been exposed after all?"

After analyzing for a while, a cold light flashed in his eyes. He slapped the paper on the table. "Looks like I'll have to control Qin Ran after all, whether to capture or kill him, consider later. If he can be sensible, sparing his life isn't out of the question."

"But can't make a move inside the valley. It's still not time for direct conflict with Dao Sword Sect, their strength is still decent." He continued. "Could arrange an ambush mid-journey... Since there's Feng Feiyan as an insider... could also poison..."

Having decided, he promptly arranged it during the night.
