Chapter 236: Are You Teaching Me How to Do Things?
But Ji Yang’s active surrender made Dao Wuyā very pleased. He immediately addressed the other disciples who were still hesitating:
“Your Senior Brother Ji has surrendered. Are you sure you want to continue resisting?”
Hearing this, not only did the He Dao Sect disciples appear angry, but even the Demon Sect disciples felt the same.
They all cast glares at Ji Yang.
If Ji Yang hadn’t surrendered so quickly, they would have already taken action, and perhaps the spiritual stones rewarded by the sect would have already filled their storage bags.
At this moment, many He Dao Sect disciples felt even more conflicted.
Now that numerous fellow disciples had surrendered, only a few of them remained. If a fight broke out, how could they possibly win?
While everyone hesitated, Ji Yang stepped forward, smiling as he said:
“Brothers, there is an ancient saying in the Cultivation World: those who recognize the current situation are wise.”
“While I am a Talent Jealousy, I am definitely no match for this Senior Brother Dao. It would be better for you all to surrender quickly, lest you face death without a chance at the path.”
“Hmph, I will never surrender!”
“Despicable coward, how can you call yourself a disciple of the He Dao Sect?”
Some disciples shouted in anger, but others no longer struggled and chose to surrender voluntarily.
Seeing the number of disciples beside him dwindling, Dao Wuyā scoffed and said no more:
“Brothers, capture all those who refuse to surrender and have them mine in the Demon Spirit Ore site for life!”
The many demonic path disciples could no longer hold back and rushed forward to capture them alive.
Upon hearing this, Ji Yang felt relieved; thankfully, they weren’t going to kill him.
Before surrendering, Ji Yang had already thought things through.
Since the middle-aged demon cultivator mentioned capturing everyone alive, it was clear that the demonic sect lacked miners. Such a great opportunity couldn’t be missed.
Even if Ji Yang was confident in facing the middle-aged demon cultivator, the disciples present wouldn’t necessarily come out unscathed.
Moreover, he could further his development in the mining site. Once he accumulated more cultivation points, bringing He Dao Sect disciples along would be a piece of cake!
Reputation?
To him, reputation was merely a hollow title.
He didn’t want such a thing.
Although some disciples vowed to fight to the death, under the absolute power disparity, they were soon captured one by one. Then, the demonic path cultivators placed specially crafted restraint shackles on the captured disciples.
These shackles were not the kind used by the He Dao Sect to punish disciples, but rather ones that confined the cultivators’ spiritual energy within their bodies, preventing them from using much power, allowing them only to mine. Thus, those wearing the shackles could not resist at all.
As for the surrendered disciples, their treatment was the same.
Watching a demon path disciple approach him with the restraint shackles in hand, Ji Yang couldn’t help but extend his hands eagerly.
He truly couldn’t wait any longer.
Having been out for so long, he hadn’t improved himself in a while.
Seeing Ji Yang being so proactive, the demon path disciple shot him a disdainful look.
The righteous path’s genius is nothing special!
Previously, they had been overly cautious.
After putting the restraint shackles on all the disciples, Dao Wuyā, feeling triumphant, did not rush to return to the sect. Instead, he shouted at the He Dao Sect disciples:
“Is there anyone among you who knows how to refine pills or craft tools?”
“If so, step forward voluntarily, and you won’t have to suffer the hardship of mining!”
Hearing this, Ji Yang was momentarily stunned.
He never expected the rumors to be true; skills were indeed valued in the Cultivation World!
Unfortunately, he hadn’t had the chance to learn pill refining.
But thankfully, his impressive mining skills could be considered a talent as well.
The He Dao Sect disciples bound by the shackles fell silent. After a moment, two stepped forward.
“I can craft tools!”
“I can refine pills!”
“Good, you two are perceptive! Is there anyone else? I will only ask once; after this, there will be no more opportunities.”
As Dao Wuyā finished speaking, no other disciples came forward, and he had to let it go.
Just as he was about to wave his hand to set off, a demon path disciple suddenly spoke up:
“Senior Brother Dao, are we sending all these people to the Demon Spirit Mine?”
“Of course! Otherwise, why capture them at all?”
Dao Wuyā coldly replied.
But the demon path disciple spoke again:
“Senior Brother Dao, we can send everyone else in, but this person is a Talent Jealousy. Wouldn’t it be inappropriate? I think it would be better to hand him over to the sect to handle.”
Saying this, the demon path disciple pointed at Ji Yang.
Seeing that he had already surrendered, Ji Yang was surprised that another disciple wanted to hinder his path to spiritual cultivation. He quietly glanced at the disciple, memorizing his face.
Unexpectedly, Dao Wuyā, who had been silent, suddenly struck. A bolt of Palm Lightning sent the disciple who spoke flying back several meters.
“Are you teaching me how to do things?”
The injured disciple turned pale, blood dripping from his chest, but he dared not retort, merely replying,
“I wouldn’t dare, please forgive me, Senior Brother Dao.”
Seeing his authority still intact, Dao Wuyā lightly said,
“Talent Jealousy? Ridiculous.”
“If we were to isolate this person and hand him over to the sect, how could the Heaven Demon Sect hold its position today?”
“No need to say more. Take the remaining disciples straight to the Demon Spirit Mine!”
…
At this point, no other disciples dared to oppose him, and as captives of the He Dao Sect, they had even less say.
As the spiritual boat continued onward, Dao Wuyā walked toward a room inside the boat.
“Uncle Li, everything has been handled.”
Once inside the room, Dao Wuyā respectfully spoke.
In front of him stood the middle-aged demon cultivator.
Hearing this, the middle-aged demon cultivator turned his head, revealing a satisfied expression as he said,
“I saw it all.
You did well!”
Receiving this praise, Dao Wuyā remained calm but continued to ask,
“According to Uncle’s thoughts, should we handle that Talent Jealousy separately?”
Upon hearing this, Dao Wuyā’s expression became even more pleased. Were the demon sect disciples merely reckless and stubborn, ignoring others’ advice?
If so, that would be a huge mistake.
To be a part of the demonic sect required deeper insight and the ability to read situations.
Humbly seeking knowledge is also an indispensable quality of a demonic path cultivator; however, the objects of their inquiry differ.
The middle-aged demon cultivator shook his head:
“No need for that. This kid isn’t worth worrying about; he’s only at the Initial Stage of Foundation Establishment. Talent Jealousy is just that!”
After receiving his uncle’s affirmation, Dao Wuyā nodded in response and then turned to leave the room.
The spiritual boat maintained its speed. After a day, it completely reached the territory of the Heaven Demon Sect.
When they were still some distance from the Heaven Demon Sect, several spiritual boats split into two teams, heading to different locations.
Among them, several boats carried Ji Yang and others, now being taken to a mining site that had just been discovered.
The other team consisted of Dao Wuyā and the other demon path disciples.
The middle-aged demon cultivator stood at the bow of the boat and spoke again:
“This matter isn’t finished yet. Besides these people, some disciples from the He Dao Sect escaped earlier. You need to hurry and capture them and bring them to the mine.”
Dao Wuyā nodded.
He had already achieved a significant accomplishment, and if he could capture all the remaining disciples and bring them to the mine, the sect’s rewards would undoubtedly be substantial.
