Chapter 21: The Master Was Influenced by the Junior Sister

As for why they didn’t give anything to Mo Yu, it was because they feared he would gobble up all the contents inside.

Sinan Sheng didn’t have a storage pouch large enough, so she directly placed her belongings into Li Tianhen’s storage ring.

That still wasn’t enough; she also took several storage bags from Ye Yanqing and Mo Ye.

“Master, I’ll share the loot with you when I get back!” Sinan Sheng shouted to Li Tianhen as she grabbed Mo Lie and dashed away.

“Share the loot?” Li Tianhen smiled as he watched Sinan Sheng’s joyful figure. “Having such a lively disciple is quite nice.”

“Master, you don’t have to flatter her like that,” Ye Yanqing sighed.

“Am I wrong to praise her? Or do you not like this little junior sister?” Li Tianhen raised an eyebrow at them.

Ye Yanqing and Mo Ye exchanged glances but remained silent. Dislike her? Impossible.

In the past, although the senior brothers got along well, they were either in secluded cultivation or training across various places.

The Four Divine Sects were usually very quiet, but ever since the little junior sister arrived, the Four Divine Sects became livelier than ever before.

None of them disliked this atmosphere.

“Alright, I’ll be off now. When your little junior sister returns, remember to call me over to share the loot,” Li Tianhen waved and turned to leave.

Ye Yanqing stumbled slightly on his feet and thought, Master, isn’t “share the loot” a bit too slick? Has the little junior sister already influenced you?

“Wait, little junior sister, why aren’t we sword-riding?” Mo Lie ran behind Sinan Sheng.

“Huh? Sword-riding?” Sinan Sheng stopped, feeling a little embarrassed.

She had been so focused on raiding the Holy Heaven Sect that she completely forgot they could fly on swords.

“Quick, quick, Fourth Senior Brother, sword-riding! We have to hurry,” Sinan Sheng bounced excitedly, urging Mo Lie to speed up.

“Let’s go,” Mo Lie summoned his flying sword, stood on it, and beckoned Sinan Sheng.

Once Sinan Sheng stabilized herself, Mo Lie steered the flying sword toward the Holy Heaven Sect.

When they were still some distance from the Holy Heaven Sect, Sinan Sheng told Mo Lie to stop.

They applied invisibility and silence talismans so that only the two of them could see each other; everyone else was completely unaware of their presence.

“No wonder it’s Master’s handiwork!” Sinan Sheng waved the talisman in front of the disciple guarding the mountain gate, who showed no reaction at all, prompting her to sigh in amazement.

Comparing the talisman she crafted with those drawn by Li Tianhen, the difference was vast—she still had much to improve.

Mo Lie tugged Sinan Sheng, pointing toward the Holy Heaven Sect. She nodded and followed him as they flew to the mountain peak of the sect.

“Little junior sister, where are we heading now?” Mo Lie looked back at Sinan Sheng.

“First to the Spirit Beast Peak; they’ve been locked up too long and need some fresh air,” Sinan Sheng grinned at him. Mo Lie had no objections.

With Sinan Sheng’s intimate knowledge of the Holy Heaven Sect leading the way, the path to Spirit Beast Peak was exceptionally smooth.

“Fourth Senior Brother, open all the beast cages and room doors, then hide quickly,” Sinan Sheng began taking action.

Although the Holy Heaven Sect cultivated broadly, no matter how strong, they couldn’t excel at everything. Their specialty was sword cultivation.

The spirit beasts at Spirit Beast Peak had been confined, mostly brooding with resentment except for being fed.

Once freed, the flying ones soared into the sky while the ground-bound ones scattered chaotically.

“Trouble! Trouble! All the spirit beasts at Spirit Beast Peak have escaped! Someone come quickly!” A disciple from Spirit Beast Peak panicked, running wildly, stumbling every few steps.

The faster beasts trampled right over him. After the chaos, the disciple lay on the ground, bearing several hoof prints.

“Ouch, that looks painful. Fourth Senior Brother, do you think he’s still alive?” Sinan Sheng covered her face with both hands, wincing.

“Although he was trampled many times, he’s still a cultivator. He should be alive,” Mo Lie considered carefully before answering.

“As long as he’s not dead, Fourth Senior Brother, let’s go.” Seeing that the spirit beasts had all escaped, Sinan Sheng pulled Mo Lie away.

“Little junior sister, where to next?”

“Before things get even more chaotic, let’s head to Feng Zeyan’s secret chamber.” Sinan Sheng led Mo Lie stealthily into Feng Zeyan’s residence.

Feng Zeyan was deep in cultivation. Sinan Sheng and Mo Lie hid nearby, waiting for the chaos to reach them.

“Report! Sect Leader, something’s wrong! For some reason, all the spirit beasts at Spirit Beast Peak have escaped and caused turmoil throughout the Holy Heaven Sect,” a young disciple hurriedly reported.

“What?” Feng Zeyan suddenly stood up.

“The senior brothers are already capturing the beasts, but many are still attacking people,” the disciple anxiously added.

Feng Zeyan didn’t hesitate and rushed out. The disciple hesitated briefly, then hurried after him.

Without their presence, Sinan Sheng and Mo Lie moved toward the large incense burner in the center of Feng Zeyan’s room.

“Fourth Senior Brother, turn the incense burner,” Mo Lie lifted his hand and rotated it. As it turned, the floor beneath revealed a descending passage.

Sinan Sheng dashed down swiftly, and after checking the surroundings, Mo Lie followed.

Below was a spacious secret chamber filled with dozens of boxes of spirit stones, various spirit plants, and several high-grade magical artifacts.

“Fourth Senior Brother, quickly gather everything except the artifacts,” Sinan Sheng instructed.

“Why not take the artifacts?” Mo Lie, though puzzled, obediently began collecting the other items.

“These artifacts are marked by Feng Zeyan’s divine sense. If we take them, he’ll definitely sense it and easily find us,” Sinan Sheng explained as she packed the last box.

Satisfied as she looked over the now-empty chamber, Sinan Sheng clapped her hands.

“Let’s go, Fourth Senior Brother, we’re heading to the Refining Peak,” she said cheerfully. Mo Lie nodded obediently.

At this moment, chaos reigned throughout the Holy Heaven Sect with people and spirit beasts in disarray, but under the protection of their invisibility talismans, Sinan Sheng and Mo Lie strode confidently toward the Refining Peak.

Amid the roars of spirit beasts and cries of pain, they remained as if unaffected.

“Little junior sister, what did you scatter just now?” Mo Lie watched as Sinan Sheng stopped and sprinkled some powder, curious about its nature.

“It’s beast-attracting powder from Fifth Senior Brother. It keeps them playing longer,” Sinan Sheng smiled mischievously.

Mo Lie rubbed his forehead. Little junior sister, are you worried the sect won’t be chaotic enough?

“Exactly. This way, it won’t quiet down for at least an hour or two. We have plenty of time. Fourth Senior Brother, let’s go.”

Neither Mo Lie nor Sinan Sheng had any interest in the weapons stored at Refining Peak; after all, the Four Divine Sects had their own refining genius.

Their goal was to clear out all the refining materials.

“I didn’t expect the Holy Heaven Sect to have so many refining materials,” Mo Lie said in surprise as they looked at the vast store.

“The Holy Heaven Sect is a major sect. Not only do they have their own mines, but they also have many ores and materials brought back from secret realms,” Sinan Sheng explained as she walked deeper inside. Mo Lie collected all the refining materials in their path.
