Chapter 199 - Back to the Sect

With Nana's speed, Rean and Roan only took another day and a half to arrive back at the teleport formation prepared for them. Thanks to the fact that only Hulian and the Sect Master knew about it, the place was pretty safe for the twins. Well, Nana also knew about it, but Rean wasn't afraid that she would go out to tell others about it.

After leaving them there, Nana retook flight and went somewhere else. As for the twins, they entered the small hut that had the teleport formation and took some Spirit Stones out. After putting them in the right positions, they activated the teleport formation, quickly appearing inside the Dalamu Sect once more.

"Phew... we are finally back."

Roan nodded.

"Let's go talk to Hulian. After that, I'm going straight back to try out the new concoction methods."

Rean nodded, and the two returned to the sect. However, when they appeared there again, everyone looked at the two with surprised expressions. Obviously, Rean and Roan noticed it.

"Were we that famous before?"

Roan narrowed his eyes.Find authorized novels in , faster updates, better experience, Please click #...-and-me_17340518006576905/back-to-the-sect_49445953903579104 for visiting.

"Famous your head! Something must have happened. Anyway, we can ask Hulian, so let's speed up."

Soon, they arrived at the Inner Sect and were brought to Hulian's house. There, they finally got the chance to report that everything worked fine on their end.

"That's good. It seems like the secret teleport formation we prepared for you was used correctly. If you need to leave for a mission again, don't forget to report to me. By the way, did you like Tiria's surprise?"

Rean couldn't help but laugh. Elder Tiria was Nana's owner. Obviously, he was talking about the fact that she was lent to them for this journey to Qerten.

"Hahaha! That was great! It only took us a single day to arrive in Qerten, so we saved a lot of time. Otherwise, we probably would still be on our way there."

Hulian nodded, satisfied.

"That's good then. However, don't expect it to happen all the time. It was an exceptional occasion only. We can hide the fact that Nana would be used by you once or twice, but others will be suspicious if she disappears every time you do."

Roan wasn't very patient, so he asked what was bothering him in the end.

"When we passed through the sect, we noticed that everyone was looking at us. Why is that?"

Hulian nodded. It was evident that he was waiting for this question.

"As you can probably imagine, it is because of the ambush we prepared for the Umbral Sect elders. Back then, we got two disciples to play your role. Sure enough, they fell for it, and we gave them a huge blow."

"With Sect Master present, they simply had no chance, so the two Divine Soul Realm elders who came after 'you two' were killed without issues. However, the battle's result ended spreading out. Everyone wanted to know why two Divine Soul Realm elders of the Umbral Sect targeted two kids. In the end, they found out that it was because you guys can Heal Umbral Energy without the use of any pills whatsoever."

Rean and Roan immediately understood. Obviously, they became the target for all the Umbral Sect members who used Umbral Energy.

"That makes things a lot more complicated. After all, there will be no lack of greedy people who would happily sell information about what we are doing or where we are going to the enemy. Everyone was looking at us because they think we bought a fight against an entire sect. I won't be surprised if most of them think that we are already dead."

Hulian sighed and nodded in the end.

"Correct. However, it is not all bad news. The fact that you can heal Umbral Energy also caught the attention of several cultivators who don't have the means to do it themselves. After all, only at the Divine Soul Realm would they be able to use their stronger Spiritual Energy to 'oh so slowly' drive the energy out, like Tiria was doing before meeting you. Because of that... well..."

Rean immediately understood.

"We will probably receive a lot of guests during the next days, correct?"

Hulian nodded.

"As to how you intend to use those connections you will make, that is up to you. Anyway, seeing as you can heal Umbral Energy and everyone knows about it, you became an essential asset of our sect. After all, you can save us a lot of money with those extremely expensive pills. Not to mention that you can finish it in less than a day. The pills would still need us to use a month or two. That being said, would you like us to assign you a protector?"

Combat-related issues were all Roan's field, so Rean simply looked at him, waiting for his answer.

Sure enough, Roan shook his had straight away.

"That's not necessary. If we get someone protecting our asses everywhere we go, we won't be able to experience real combat. Even though it would make no difference in my state of mind, I'm still afraid that this idiot here will get complacent."

Rean's mouth twitched, but he refrained from commenting.

Hulian narrowed his eyes.

"In that case, you will need to have a plan every time you go out. At least until you can protect yourselves if more assassins appear."

Roan nodded.

"As long as you can provide those hidden teleport formation, I can take care of the rest. It's not like disguising is anything that hard to start with. However, you better get someone to stay beside Rean when he is healing those... visitors. I wouldn't be surprised if one or other suddenly tried something while he is healing them."

Hulian wasn't surprised with that last part.

"We know. We will have one of the Core Elders to be beside him all the time when he is treating the outsiders. At the same time that it is good to make connections and have others owing you favors, you can't be complacent either."

Rean also took the opportunity to ask how the new communication system project was going.

"Oh, nothing much has changed yet. You two were gone for four days only after all. However, it was still enough time to connect Majorias City with Gapan City. Now, both cities are connected to the Mission Hall and the Sect Affairs Office."

"Sect Affairs Office? Does it mean that you are using two cables instead of one to get more information?"

Hulian nodded.

"That was the idea. After all, only the Mission Hall having it was way too inconvenient."

Rean nodded his head and then shook it right after.

"Having two cables is a good thing. After all, if one fails, the other is still there as back up. However, you are using it the wrong way."

Hulian got puzzled.

"How come? Both formations in the Mission Hall and the Affairs Office are working pretty fine."

Rean shook his head once more.

"That is not it. What I meant was that you didn't need two cables for each connection. Anyway, can you tell Elder Droman Saliu to come to see me? There are a few ideas I had that I want to explain to him. Also, keep using two cables in the project, but there is no need to use each one for a single building."

Hulian immediately nodded. Rean was the hidden head behind this project, so they would definitely try any idea he comes up with.

"Very well."

The twins and Hulian then talked for a while longer. After that, Roan went straight to Old Worm's Hut as Rean returned to his room. On the way, he decided to ask Sister Orb something else.

'Sister Orb, how are our Destiny Points? We got 300 from Roan's Low-Level Earth Alchemist's Title and another 500 from that War change, after all.'

[Well, as you probably can imagine, you two already surpassed the 1000 Destiny Points mark. To be more specific, you guys have 1339 points at the moment. You got an additional 100 points from the death of the two Umbral Sect Divine Soul Realm cultivators. The rest was all from the new communication system.]

'As expected, the death of two Divine Soul Realm experts can't even reach the feet of the initial stage of the communication system.'

[That was obvious. Even if the entire Umbral Sect was to perish right now because of you two, it would still not give you as many Destiny Points as the communication system. Anyway, that change in the war and the death of the two Umbral Sect Elders sects was really a heavens blessing. If not for that, you would probably need another two to three months before acc.u.mulating the necessary 1000 Destiny Points.]

'Well, even if that was the case, we would have been far ahead of schedule. Now, we only need the Peak Stage of the Foundation Establishment Realm.'

As Rean and Roan occupied themselves with their own things, the news that they were back in the sect quickly spread. As one can expect, several figures began to make their way to the Dalamu Sect.

A few hours later, Elder Droman finally arrived and sent someone to call Rean over. Obviously, Rean went to see him straight away in the Formations Hall. Soon, he was brought into a private room where Droman was already waiting for him.

"Good, you came already."

Ran smiled before saying.

"I thought Elder Droman was in another city supervising one of the formations being constructed. I didn't expect you to come back this fast."

Droman shook his head, though.

"For you to request my presence, it definitely has something to do with the formations. Obviously, I take it very seriously. Anyway, what is it that you wanted to talk about?"

Rean nodded and began to explain.
