Villain: Destiny Transfer System

Chapter 53 Fulfilling A Senior's Role

?"Dear fellow disciple, could you please enlighten us about the identity of the senior you referred to and the reason behind our assembly?" asked one of the disciples respectfully.

"Brother, we have only two days left until the secret realm closes, and we haven't eliminated many members of the second elder faction," added another disciple with a worried expression.

"Actually, I'm not entirely sure why we're gathered here," replied the first disciple hesitantly. "The senior mentioned something about a cave that might contain inheritance, valuable treasures and artifacts. He promised to reward us if we explore the cave and contribute in helping senior."

The disciple who spoke up was none other than Wang Chen's appointed mission agent.

As the disciple finished speaking, everyone was taken aback. It was well-known that finding an inheritance in this secret realm was no easy feat. No one had ever found one before, and most had thought it was just a baseless rumor. However, an inheritance would bring with it immense wealth and resources. The disciples were excited at the prospect of finally getting their hands on some of these treasures.

They realized that gathering together for this mission was more important than focusing on eliminating members of the opposing faction. If their faction were to obtain the inheritance, they would have a significant advantage and could easily suppress the other faction.

It seemed reasonable to them that they had been gathered for this purpose.

Suddenly, a figure appeared before them, his face obscured by a cloth, only his eyes visible. The disciples were taken aback, and one of them thought, "How did he manage to sneak up on us without us sensing anything?"

They all shared the same inner thought as they couldn't detect any Qi or aura from the stranger. They wondered who he was and what his intentions were.

"Senior!" exclaimed one of the disciples, bowing respectfully with his fists cupped. They all knew that this person was the one who had given them the mission. They also realized that the senior had hidden his face, which meant he didn't want to reveal his identity.

They didn't know why he was hiding his face, but they felt it wasn't their place to ask. When Wang Chen had appeared before them without a trace or aura, they knew that only a senior with a high cultivation base could do that. It was likely that this senior was at the Core Formation Realm, or even higher.

Wang Chen had planned his sudden appearance carefully, knowing that using his Celestial Thief Technique would conceal his aura and Qi from the disciples. He thought to himself,'They will assume that I have a higher cultivation base than them if they can't detect me.'

He had considered slowly revealing himself to the disciples, but ultimately decided that a sudden entry would be more effective. He was pleased to see that his plan had worked perfectly, and the disciples greeted him with a light bow and cupped their fists in a gesture of respect. Wang Chen felt a sense of satisfaction at the successful execution of his plan.

Wang Chen cleared his throat and addressed the gathered disciples. "Ahem, I'm sure you all know why you're here. While I understand you may be eager to continue your mission of killing the second Elder faction disciples, this task is far more important."

He spoke in a deep, commanding voice that sounded almost otherworldly. The disciples nodded in agreement, knowing that he spoke the truth.

"If we can obtain the inheritance and all the treasures hidden within, our faction will become incredibly strong. At that point, suppressing the opposing faction will be a small matter." Wang Chen's words hung in the air, and the disciples felt a sense of excitement and anticipation.

Wang Chen scratched his head and continued, "Brother Jang and the junior disciples have already gone ahead, but they're gonna need some help. The place we're headed to is pretty huge, and we need as many hands as possible to search through it all."

He looked around at the gathered disciples, his expression serious. "I'm counting on all of you to give your best effort and help us find what we're looking for. The rewards will be worth it, trust me."

As soon as Wang Chen mentioned Yue Jang's name, all the remaining doubts in the disciples' hearts vanished into thin air. They knew that no one would dare to slander the name of their faction's pillar and idol, so they were now 100% certain of Wang Chen's identity and the existence of the inheritance.

"Come on, follow me. I know the way." Wang Chen beckoned to the disciples, his tone confident and authoritative. Without waiting for a response, he started moving, Those disciples followed him eagerly.

Wang Chen's speed was nothing extraordinary, it was on par with the disciples. He knew that if he used the low-level Cloud Step Technique, they would start doubting his identity. After all, no senior would use such a basic technique when they could easily master higher-grade techniques. So, he refrained from using it, even though he could have easily outpaced them with it.

As Wang Chen moved at a pace that was equal to the disciples, they felt grateful and relieved. They had initially thought that the senior would use his powerful cultivation base to move at high speed, but he was considerate of their pace. This made them admire the senior even more, and they became even more curious about his true identity.

If Wang Chen could read the thoughts of these disciples, he would have doubled over in laughter and rolled on the ground like a silly monkey.

….

As they approached the two mountains that seemed to be nothing more than just an ordinary pair of peaks, the disciples began to feel puzzled. How could this place hold the secrets and treasures they were seeking? They looked around for any signs of an entrance or a clue to what lay beyond, but there was nothing out of the ordinary other than a simple cave.

They started to wonder if they had been led on a wild goose chase, but they didn't want to voice their doubts in front of the senior.

As they stood there, Wang Chen could sense their confusion and decided to put their minds at ease. "Don't be fooled by appearances," he said with a hint of mystery in his voice. "This is indeed the place we're looking for."

He moved forward between the two mountains and the disciples followed closely behind him. As they approached the seemingly ordinary mountains, they noticed a small opening between them that led to a cave. Wang Chen confidently stepped onto the threshold and disappeared from sight, leaving the disciples staring in awe.

"Whoa, did the senior just vanish into thin air?" one of the disciples blurted out, bewildered.

But before they could ponder further, Wang Chen suddenly reappeared in front of them, leaving them in awe.

"Whoa! It's like you teleported or something!" another disciple exclaimed.

Chuckling, Wang Chen clarified, "No, no, it's not teleportation. There's a formation set up here. When you step on the entrance of the cave, it automatically sends you to the intended destination."

Hearing Wang Chen's explanation The disciples nodded, impressed with the hidden mechanism.

Wang Chen looked at the group of disciples with a serious expression on his face. "One more important thing," he began, "after you go inside, separate from each other and go different ways." He paused to let his words sink in before continuing, "The inside is vast and we need you to search every corner of it. If you go in a group, it will be hard to cover the entire place. Those who perform well and contribute more will be given extra resources and will also have the opportunity to select one of the treasures that will be found in this cave."

Upon hearing Wang Chen's words, the disciples' eyes lit up with excitement. They were eager to explore the vast cave and find the treasures hidden within. Even those who had initially planned to form a group now abandoned the idea, realizing that they would have a better chance of finding something valuable on their own.

As they hurried towards the cave entrance, Wang Chen watched them with a small smile on his face.

"You juniors, come here," Wang Chen said as he waved his hand towards the group of disciples. These nine disciples were the ones who were tasked to gather as many disciples from their faction as possible.

Hearing Wang Chen's words, they hurriedly moved towards him, eager to know why the senior was summoning them. As they approached, Wang Chen's expression was full of smiles.
