Chapter 357: Something Else To Offer

Chapter 357 - Something Else To Offer

While Roan discussed the past battle with Calina and Malaka, Rean spent the rest of his day healing those with severe injuries. Although there were many Healing Pills, only the most potent ones could compare to what Rean could do. Naturally, the majority couldn't afford such a thing.

In exchange, Rean got several favors and got quite a few interesting items to use in forging later. Even a few Umbral Sect members had to grit their teeth and put their pride away to ask for his help. Rean didn't really mind. Instead of refusing to help, which would create an even greater grudge, he preferred to make them think twice before trying something against him later. Of course, just that wouldn't change the entire Umbral Sect's opinion about his abilities, but it was a start.

At some point that night, Kassie and Zuan came to visit the twins in their encampment. This place was perfect for mounting a temporary base with the terrain advantage until the next morning arrived.

"Oh! Ancestor Zuan, Senior Kassie, you're here."

Zuan and Kassie nodded.

"Yes. We came to see how the situation of your Death Unit was. After the battle was over, the extra Units that were part of the Elite Group went back to their own positions. Now you are the same 300 cultivator sized unit as before."

Rean nodded as he looked around.

"Well, that battle was not without losses. From the 307 members that we had before it started, we now have 236. We will need to scout for replacements tomorrow morning before we march to Palau Mountain."

Kassie shook her head.

"Don't worry. I will arrange the replacements for your Unit. With how famous you guys have gotten, I doubt there will be a lack of options for you to chose."

Rean smiled after hearing that.

Zuan then looked at the twins and entered the main topic.

"You two probably know why we are here. It's about the Disruption Protection Formation that covered this hill during the battle. How did you take control over it?"

Rean and Roan were already waiting for that.

"It's not exactly something we can explain. What you need to know is that this isn't something we can pull out anytime we want. It was due to several circumstances that we were able to pull this out. In any other case, it wouldn't work."

Zuan didn't care about that, though.

"That doesn't matter. What I want to know is what you used to do it. You must understand that all the sects are now looking at our sect with suspicion. I can't blame them for that either. After all, I would also be afraid if I was on their side. Who can guarantee that we can't take control of the formations that protect their sects or the royal palace? We want to understand this ability better so that we can act accordingly in the future."

Rean shrugged his shoulders.

"As I said, we can't explain. Ancestor Zuan must understand that everyone has their own secrets, and so do we. Isn't that good enough to know that we are part of the Dalamu Sect? Obviously, we wouldn't use it against you all. Or could it be that Ancestor Zuan only trusts us this much?"

Zuan shook his head.

"If I thought that you were a real risk to my Dalamu Sect, I would have dealt with you two a long time ago. The fact that you two are alive and kicking is the proof of my trust."

Rean smiled after hearing that.

"Then that's it. Just play the roles correctly. As long as you refuse to tell the other powers anything, they won't be able to do anything to Dalamu. In the end, it all depends on whether Ancestor Zuan and Kassie will tell the others about us or not. It's that simple."

Indeed. Other than Zuan and Kassie, no one else knew about Rean and Roan's feats in this war. As famous as they might be, no one would believe that two Core Formation Realm boys did something like that. Everyone thought that it was Kassie and Zuan who acted back during the battle.

Zuan narrowed his eyes as he looked at the twins. He wasn't an idiot. He knew that they definitely weren't just two teenagers as they looked. Still, it was correct to say that they had done a lot for the sect so far, including achieving this victory.

Although this war helped Dalamu a lot, the fact was that Rean and Roan were doing it to help themselves.

Rean wanted the Transten Ores to have something to feed Kentucky. Roan thought this was the perfect chance to train Malaka and Calina during a real war. In a certain way, their reasons had little to do with Dalamu itself.

In the end, Zuan sighed. The fact was that he already expected that the twins wouldn't tell him what they did.

"Fine... Perhaps this is a good thing that we don't know how you two robbed the formation's control. Such knowledge is helpful and dangerous at the same time. Try not to show this ability to control formations to others from now on. Otherwise, even I would not be able to cover for you two."

Rean nodded, not caring too much.

"Don't worry. We know what we are doing. Only because we were sure that no one would find the truth that we went ahead with this plan."

Zuan nodded, and then they changed the topic.

"The other thing I want to know is about Roan's commanding knowledge. Roan, I will not ask you how you learned that. However, would it be okay if you taught some elders who are good at commanding as well? Of course, if you want something in exchange for it, I'm more than happy to comply."

Roan couldn't help but ask.

"Isn't it a bad idea? If I began to teach all of them, the information would escape someone's lips sooner or later. Umbral Sect is already enough of a bother."

Zuan agreed with him.

"I know. You don't need to worry. I can have Kassie act as the middleman. She would be the one appearing, pretending to be teaching everyone, while you would be communicating with her through Spiritual Sense. I'll make sure that no one in our sect or outside will find out about it. I can give you my word about that."

Roan pondered a bit before nodding.

"If the payment is good, I don't mind giving some help. At the moment, I usually pass by the Blue Orchid Sect to teach the girls there about combat. It will basically be the same thing."

Zuan and Kassie were satisfied to hear that. Kassie was even more delighted since she would learn first than anyone else. As for Zuan, he was just thinking about the future of his Dalamu Sect, nothing more. He wasn't very good at strategies, so he wouldn't participate in the teachings himself.

"Very well, what would you like to receive as payment?"

Roan then looked at Rean, and the two nodded. The answer to that question was already obvious.

"Rank Four Spirit Stones. Would that be possible?"

Zuan and Kassie were taken aback.

"This..."

Zuan quickly calmed down before explaining.

"You two should know better than anyone else just how rare Rank Four Spirit Stones are, no? Even the Nascent Soul Elders and above only have a few tens or maybe hundreds of them at most. And that was the result of several years of accumulation. Those stones are just too hard to acquire. Even I only have a little bit more than a thousand of them."

"Of course, our own personal stashes are separated from the Sects' Treasure. Still, I believe we don't have more than three thousand or so in there. The situation is more or less the same for all the other sects. Only the Royal Family probably has more of it, but it wouldn't be that much."

Rean and Roan narrowed their eyes. They didn't have much more things they wanted at the moment, after all. They wanted Rank Four Spirit Stones is obviously to use the Circuitry Teleport Formation if necessary. Back in Laan City, they had to ask Juvian and Tiria for that. Fortunately, there was no need to use them in the end.

Zuan couldn't help but say.

"Rank Four Spirit Stones is hard to provide. However, I might have something of interest for you two. You two already know about cultivation techniques that allow one to use Yang or Yin Energies, right?"

Rean and Roan nodded. In fact, Calina's technique was one of these types. At the moment, Mia and Malaka also switched to it after Calina passed it over.

"My own cultivation technique just so happens to be a Yang Energy type. I don't want to brag, but my technique is quite good. Usually, I definitely wouldn't pass it to anyone else. However, I do think that Roan's commanding and Rean's healing abilities are worth as much. Would you be interested in it?"

Roan didn't say anything as he looked at Rean. In the end, such a technique would be more useful to Rean. However, they already have the Light and Dark Element Cultivation Techniques of the Soul Gem System. Obviously, they wouldn't change cultivation techniques in that case. That being said, Zuan's technique wasn't as appealing as Zuan probably thinks it is.

Rean then asked.

"Does it have some Yang Energy skills included?"

Zuan nodded.

"But of course! Why would one use the Yang Energy Cultivation Technique without the skills that make good use of this energy? It's just that they are all Fire Element ones, so I don't know how good it would be for you."

Rean pondered a bit and nodded in the end.

"Alright, we accept."
