Chapter 304: Well Equipped
Yuan Yaozu welcomed the message to meet with the sect leader. If nothing else, it relieved his boredom. After so many years of being stuck at the peak of Golden Core and being essentially unable to cultivate, he was still working his way back to spending the majority of his time engaged in the activity.
And since the message was noted to have been sent to both him and Zou Tian, Yuan Yaozu knew the exact topic—preparing the young man for his upcoming mission.
The new Nascent Soul sighed. In none of his planning for that mission had he envisioned the youngster reaching Foundation Establishment before leaving. Not that the advancement was bad for his chances of success. The exact opposite was actually true. No, the issue was that Chao Su somehow pulled off another miracle.
Qi sources? Time dilation rooms? Those were not features a small sect possessed, that any sect possessed. Maybe some all-powerful megasect somewhere with Nihility realm cultivators running things had access to such treasures, but locally, such things were unheard of even as myths and legends.
Yuan Yaozu had definitely tied himself to the right horse, but he couldn’t help but wonder what ridiculous thing would be introduced next and when. He almost laughed as he flew to the Administration Hall. Who knew? Today might be the day that he saw a new wonder.
Zou Tian, the sect leader, and that efficient gem of an assistant were all present when he arrived, and Chao Su wasted no time getting started.
“I anticipate being very busy for the next little while, Zou Tian, and decided to get you set up now so that, in my haste, I don’t forget anything later. Ready?”
The boy cupped his hands.
“First of all, I need guarantees from all three of you that everything I reveal today will be held in the strictest confidence.”
Zou Tian and Sun Hua were quick to agree.
“Of course, Sect Leader,” Yuan Yaozu said. “It’s important that any secrets related to Zou Tian’s mission not be discovered by other sects.”
Chao Su, for some reason, appeared chagrined. “I, uh, actually was concerned more with not wanting to spoil the surprise before I can give some of this stuff to my other sect members, but sure, let’s go with your reason. It sounds better.”
