Chapter 401: Chapter 397: Real Stroke of Luck (Seeking Monthly Tickets and Subscriptions)

“Alright, the Star Cloud Path is about to close.”

“Hurry up and pass through.”

“Five spots, you decide the remaining five.”

Old Guang waved his hand, coldly eyeing the ten martial artists who had just tried to rush in and muddle through.

“No objections, no objections.”

“We’ll leave immediately, happens to be planning to stay a few more days in the Ten Thousand Mountains.”

All ten of them shook their heads, wishing they could find a hole to hide in.

“Miss, Lao Liu and I won’t be accompanying you.”

“This journey is tough, we’ll head back on our own. You and Xiao Huan can go ahead.”

“Take care!”

Uncle Mu and Sixth Uncle suddenly spoke to Ning Wei, knowing well that Ning Wei would certainly face retaliation from Star Commerce, and if they continued following her, they would only hold her back.

After considerable deliberation, they decided to head back to the Ning Family to inform the Family Head to prepare, though the Star Cloud Path was closing, Star Commerce had the strength to bypass Sunset Mountain with ease.

“Uncle Mu, Sixth Uncle…”

“Alright then, take this storage bag with you, deliver it to my father.”

Ning Wei understood their well-meaning intentions and did not refuse, she handed them the storage bag she had taken off.

“No, no, this storage bag is too valuable, Miss, you should keep it.”

Old Mu pushed it away with one hand, refusing.

“Take it, if Star Commerce’s people see this storage bag, it could lead to more trouble.”

“I have a small one here, after all, Xiao Wei is now considered a disciple of the Star Sect; as a retired elder, I should show some gesture.”

Seeing the back-and-forth between Uncle Mu and Ning Wei, Old Guang laughed and handed over a storage bag.

…..

“Uncle Mu, Sixth Uncle, I’m leaving!!!”

“Once I join the Star Sect, I will definitely return home to see you.”

Ning Wei looked at them reluctantly and said sadly.

“Wait, didn’t you just ask for five spots?”

“Why are there only two of you now??”

Old Guang said puzzled, scratching his head.

Upon hearing Old Guang’s words, Ning Wei subconsciously glanced at Ye Tian, her mouth slightly open as if trying to say something, but Xiao Huan immediately shouted loudly, “Elder, you must have heard wrong.”

“There are only four of us, there are still eight spots left.”

“Oh, really??”

“Alright then, let’s go, time is short.”

Old Guang said lightly, Ning Wei also turned her head and stopped talking, only Xiao Huan gave Ye Tian a fierce glare, then turned and pulled Ning Wei away.

Just like that, the Star Cloud Path gradually closed, the stars hanging in the sky grew dim, revealing a long and massive abyss.

“Whew, it’s closed, we still have to stay here for four or five days.”

“This is not good, my demon beast core will dissipate tomorrow, turning into waste.”

“Let’s take a detour through Sunset Mountain!”

“Tsk, Sunset Mountain is so dangerous, it’s suicidal for just the five of us.”

The once quiet clearing buzzed again, hundreds of martial artists discussed loudly, their voices resonating in the air.

“Some people really have dog eyes that look down on others, clearly they could pass through, what a shame they have poor vision.”

“Holding onto the thigh of a genius who comprehends Sword Intent instead of following those treacherous people of Star Commerce.”

“Serves him right being abandoned here!!!”

“Exactly, such people deserve it. A fence-sitter who sways both ways, let’s see how a Dark Rank martial artist like him survives in the Ten Thousand Mountains.”

“Others have struggled to protect him to this point, not only does he refuse to help when danger arises, but shows cold indifference, such a person is truly disgusting.”

“Forget it, everyone has their reasons, it’s not his fault, if only his strength was at the Mortal Martial Realm.”

“Could he not come as a hero to save the beauty? Clearly that girl has feelings for him, but now it’s all gone.”

“Being good-looking doesn’t help, still a coward.”

Suddenly, an onlooker’s gossip targeted Ye Tian, with countless martial artists pointing fingers, looking at him with contempt.

“Misunderstood!!!”

“Well, it’s fine, we’re just passing acquaintances, strangers to each other.”

Ye Tian touched his nose and smiled helplessly, he could sense from Xiao Huan’s look that he was misunderstood.

Fully absorbed in the Star Cloud Path, he had not noticed the outside world and was mistaken for a coward unwilling to stand against Star Commerce.

“Didn’t expect Xiao Wei to have such a friend!!”

“Unacceptable, this kind of person definitely can’t be allowed to harm Xiao Wei.”

“With Xiao Wei’s genius, she is destined to be a Sword Dao expert in the future; she is a pillar of the Star Sect.”

“I need to talk to him.”

Old Guang sought a martial artist who witnessed the whole ordeal to understand the situation.

From his understanding, Ning Wei had a fondness for Ye Tian, she unconditionally helped him secure a spot on the Star Cloud Path, but when Star Commerce oppressed Ning Wei, Ye Tian remained indifferent, behaving like a stranger without offering any help.

Thus, in Old Guang’s initial judgment, Ning Wei was deceived by Ye Tian’s pretty face; from Ning Wei’s gaze, Old Guang could tell she was inexperienced in the world and easily swayed by sweet words.

Moreover, Ye Tian’s exceptionally handsome appearance, coupled with sweet talk, deceiving Ning Wei made some sense.

Thinking this, Old Guang’s face grew somber as he walked towards Ye Tian.

“Heh, that boy is in trouble.”

“That young girl now comprehends Sword Intent and is a rare genius. The Star Sect will surely treasure her.”

“As an elder of the Star Sect, Old Guang will certainly make things difficult for him.”

The martial artists lightly laughed at Ye Tian, watching him as if he were a clown.

“Tap, tap, tap~~~~”

“Young man, given your age, reaching the Dark-grade Fifth Stage is commendable.”

“However, compared to a genius like Xiao Wei who comprehends Sword Intent, you’re far inferior.”

“What I want to say is, those astonishing, celebrated, and envied genius martial artists and their strengths in Star City don’t amount to anything in true grand cities before real evildoers and geniuses.”

“And Ning Wei, she is such an evildoer; her future husband must be an absolute strong person, even more, Xiao Wei carries the fate of our Star Sect, and you are not qualified to share this burden with her.”

“Xiao Wei is young and doesn’t understand the hearts of people in the Martial Arts World, but I do.”

“These hundred Spirit Stones are enough for you to cultivate to the Earth Rank; if you agree to leave Xiao Wei.”

“Take them away!!!”

Old Guang stared at Ye Tian, speaking in a deep, cold voice, if Ye Tian dared to refuse, he might explode on the spot.

Seeing those hundred Spirit Stones, some martial artists almost drooled; they worked hard for a month to earn barely over ten Spirit Stones, while he did nothing and got a hundred Spirit Stones.

Truly lucky!!!
