However, Ye Luo quickly sensed that sothing was amiss.
This area assigned to him is excessively large, comparable to four or five areas assigned to other team mbers.
It’s important to know that having a large area is not necessarily a good thing. If any issues arise in a certain area, the team mber responsible must take full responsibility.
The Captain had clearly stated that if a single Gold Silk Wood tree had any issues, the team mber responsible would be executed imdiately!
Moreover, the execution thod was quite peculiar; the team mber’s vital essence would be directly absorbed by the Gold Silk Wood trees.
Ye Luo even suspected that the allure of the Gold Silk Forest was due to the absorption of cultivators’ vital essence.
After all, the spatial realm contains nurous cultivators, and periodically, the Guard Squad increases the number of cultivators, yet the number of guards remains constant.
This number can only ensure basic zone divisions; so areas are not without supervision, but there wouldn’t be idle team mbers. Even the Guard Captain has his own area.
Of course, the size of the areas is determined by the Guard Captain. For instance, Ye Luo’s area is essentially the largest among all team mbers, showing how much the Captain favors him.
"Kid, if you give another bottle of those elixirs, I’ll imdiately allocate a smaller and more peaceful area to you. Let tell you, this area is known as the ’death zone.’ The number of cultivators who have died here is countless, and this area is most susceptible to pests. You need to decide quickly!" The Captain leaned over to Ye Luo and whispered.
Ye Luo suddenly realized; this was the plan he had in mind!
While this area might be troubleso for other team mbers, it posed no problem for Ye Luo. A larger area made it convenient for him to handle personal matters!
Furthermore, it seed that other team mbers avoided this area, not even bothering to co near, making it even more convenient for Ye Luo.
Even if the Captain now offered him another area, he would refuse. Letting alone giving him the Essence of the Spirit Pond was simply wishful thinking! After all, he was trapped here as well and had to be frugal. If resources ran dry, all that awaited him was to perish here.
"Captain, I really don’t have any left. The Clan Leader just gave one bottle!" Ye Luo feigned helplessness as he spoke.
"Hmph, it seems you haven’t made up your mind yet. You can stay here and calm down, but I’m telling you, this area hasn’t had a pest problem for so ti. I’m guessing chaos will ensue soon, so don’t bla for not warning you!" After saying that, he turned to the young girl beside him.
"Third Princess, why do you insist on this? It’s better if you obediently go back; the Patrol Envoy over there must be exceedingly worried!" As Captain, he naturally knew the Third Princess.
Of course, there were indeed many Patrol Envoys within that spatial realm, but there was only one Patrol Envoy with such a beautiful daughter as the Third Princess. Consequently, many cultivators knew her father only because of the Third Princess, which once greatly displeased her father.
"I’ve co out to train, my father has already agreed, so you don’t need to try persuading !" The Third Princess looked wide-eyed and responded harshly.
The Captain, understanding her character, said no more, "Then I won’t interfere, but you’d better stay away from this area. This is the most dangerous zone, and since you don’t have a Token, I can’t assign an area to you."
Though the Captain’s words were quite courteous, don’t underestimate his authority. Any Patrol Envoy could easily crush him.
"That’s no concern of yours. I’ll stay in this area with him, that’s final!" The Third Princess casually uttered.
There is one advantage to this area; there is a simple residence that can withstand so of the rampant Power of Laws prevailing in the environnt. After all, the cultivation levels of these team mbers are just adequate, and prolonged exposure here is demanding, even for Ye Luo, not to ntion the other team mbers.
Upon hearing the Third Princess’s words, the Captain staggered slightly before turning back.
"Third Princess, this is unwise. If sothing happens to you here, how can I explain it to the Patrol Envoy? What if you go to my area? It’s much safer than here!" The Captain quickly suggested.
Since he was the Captain here, he clearly knew where the dangers were. If the Third Princess died here, it would be troubleso for him as well; a Patrol Envoy could easily eliminate him.
Indeed, that Patrol Envoy was selected by the Law Enforcers, while the Captain was rely recomnded by a Patrol Envoy. Such disparities are vast indeed.
"I won’t go to your place; I’ll stay right here and go nowhere!" The Third Princess stubbornly declared.
The Guard was quite helpless; no matter what he said, the Third Princess wouldn’t listen, leaving him in a frantic state. In the end, he had no choice but to contact the Patrol Envoy to have him take the Third Princess back early.
The Third Princess, here, was untouchable and unscoldable, yet couldn’t be endangered, making her a troubleso burden.
But the Captain also knew that the Patrol Envoy couldn’t casually leave the Holy City; they needed approval from multiple levels, and leaving would take at least three days. Three days! Given how unpredictable incidents are here, there wasn’t much else he could do but hope for no surprises.
At the sa ti, he made arrangents with the cultivators guarding the Transmission Array, hoping they could send the Third Princess back.
Yet from the Third Princess’s deanor, it seed she wouldn’t return even if the Transmission Array opened.
Of course, Ye Luo couldn’t comprehend the Captain’s feelings and began inspecting the area. As he drew closer, he felt a peculiarity in the Gold Silk Wood. From afar, it was pleasing to the eye, but up close, an unsettling aura erged!
This Gold Silk Wood was undeniably extraordinary!
However, Ye Luo recalled the Gold Silk Wood from Zi Wei Sect, where the disciples once extracted essence from it.
Although that essence didn’t compare to that of the Spirit Pool, it was notably effective for body refiners.
Moreover, those Gold Silk Wood trees were not genuine Gold Silk Wood trees; they were improved versions, lacking compared to this Gold Silk Forest.
Then, could this Gold Silk Wood yield essence? If it could, the results should be even more magical! Contemplating this, Ye Luo’s eyes turned fervently hopeful.
