Chapter 2: Wise Old Man’s Motivational Speech
Bullhorn Mountain Range, Spirit Flower Valley.
More than a hundred people trekked through the bottom of the valley, their gazes wandering across the mountain walls in wonder.
"The name of this valley really fits! These are no normal flowers!"
"I’ve worked in farmlands my entire life. What flowers have I not seen? But here, I can’t even recognize one-tenth of these plants."
"I haven’t seen this many colors in my entire life! And the scent... It’s so addicting that I don’t want this valley to end!"
"Hey, who said that? Get him! His life is in danger!"
A small commotion took place at the back of the crowd as one enamored man was caught by some soldiers. An old man walked over and handed the leading soldier a flask.
"This spirit wine is harmless. It will knock him out for a while and suppress the spiritual pollution caused by the flowers. Make him drink a small sip, or he’ll end up becoming raw nutrients for this valley."
The family of the man expressed their gratitude profusely.
"Master Ming Zi, we will remember your kindness."
"Even if any of us are selected by the sect, we’ll serve you as long as you command us."
