Chapter 1913: Chapter 1913: How Many People in Total?
He was truly a respectable elder, having developed an antidote, yet he chose not to inform him imdiately but went to the dicinal Garden with those useless wastes instead.
What were they planning to do, to rise above him and snatch his position as the Valley Master?
“Go, summon the other disciples, and follow to the dicinal Garden. I must see what the Great Elder and the others intend to do!”
If it was as he suspected, that the Great Elder intended to betray him, then he would not let them off lightly, even though he had promised his father—the forr Valley Master—not to harm the Great Elder and his colleagues, he would not spare them!
“Yes, Valley Master.”
The disciple’s face was filled with joy.
No matter whether the Great Elders had really developed the Detoxification dicine or not, he had gained favor in the eyes of the Valley Master, which ensured a bright future for him.
He was no longer the insignificant Gatekeeper Disciple who guarded the Great Elder’s courtyard.
…
Soon, Liao Fusheng and his group followed the footsteps of the Great Elders to the dicinal Garden.
Inside the dicinal Garden, Qian Jiyun also observed the disciples brought by the two Great Elders. An Jiuyue, upon seeing this, stepped out from the garden and watched them.
“diocre aptitude, though they can refine dicinal pills, but…”
She shook her head as she watched the disciples, feeling that their talents were average and certainly not indicative of gifted individuals.
But what she did not know was that these were the disciples specifically chosen by the two elders after deliberation, selected for their average talents, precariously between noticeable and ignorable, hard to definitively categorize.
Such individuals could catch the two Elders’ attention because it was people like these who wouldn’t seem too dangerous.
“They are passable, given ti, they could beco useful talents.” She turned to Qian Jiyun and said tranquilly.
“Then they are the ones.”
With one sentence, Qian Jiyun cented the decision, sweeping his gaze toward the people behind him and asking.
“How many in total?”
“To reply to the Elder, there are in total fifty-seven disciples here.” The Great Elder bowed and respectfully answered Qian Jiyun’s question.
“Only these few have been chosen from all of Poison Valley?” An Jiuyue was truly astonished; Poison Valley should have at least a thousand disciples, yet only these few were selected.
It seed that under Liao Fusheng’s leadership, Poison Valley was truly beyond salvation.
That was without encountering stronger opponents, but if they t even one, it would suffice to wipe the entirety of Poison Valley off the Xilin Plane.
The Great Elder, upon hearing her words, displayed a bitter smile, filled with embarrassing awkwardness, “I did not dare bring the other disciples as not to disgrace the two Elders’ presence.”
This was already the best he could select, making great effort not to include those disciples who had committed evil deeds or killed people.
However, he also knew that in Poison Valley, those who had not committed a single evil deed were non-existent; so were compelled, but even so, they had still done evil.
An Jiuyue took out several porcelain bottles from her embrace and handed them over to the Great Elder.
“Thank you, thank you, Elder.”
While expressing his gratitude, the Great Elder extended his hand to take the bottles from her.
But before he could act, he heard hurried footsteps coming from behind. Turning around in a panic, he saw Liao Fusheng, with a grim expression, leading his trusted followers over.
“Yuan Xin, how dare you betray Poison Valley? Are you plotting to revolt against as the Valley Master?”
