Shen Yuan nodded his head, “Yes, and that guy we met in the beginning is also there among them.”
Chen Yue smiled wickedly, “Heh, I can’t wait to see his face when he sees our improved strength. With the inheritances that we have received, he will not stand a chance against us.”
Shen Yuan shook his head, “There are still quite a few disciples among them who are stronger than the current you.”
“What about in terms of healing? Are they also better than us?” Ling Mei asked with pride.
Shen Yuan chuckled softly, “None of them can compare to you guys in that field; even their core disciples can’t compare to you guys.”
Shen Yuan paused as he looked at their proud faces, “But that’s because healing is not their focus. They are only after cultivating their strength. So in a battle, an average outer sect disciple will win against Azure Sky Gate.”
The disciples’ smiles froze as what Shen Yuan said indeed made sense. “Then what about the Inner Sect, Senior Brother?” Chen Yue didn’t want to give up so she asked again.
“I don’t know, I haven’t seen any old Inner Sect disciple judge that accordingly. I only know of you two, Ling Mei and Chen Yue, who are Inner Sect disciples. But you guys only recently became Inner Sect disciples, so you don’t count.”
The disciples got silent as they mulled over his words, while Shen Yuan gazed above them to see the disciples of Azure Sky Sect carefully preparing to capture the honeycomb.
“Senior Brother, what should we do? I have heard that Golden Nectarbees are highly dangerous as they won’t let anyone take their honey. If we want to extract the honey, then we need to lure away the bees,” Wan Ling spoke worriedly as she gazed at the honeycomb.
“We need someone to lure away all the bees so we can extract the honey,” Ling Mei thoughtfully spoke.
“Who among us will do something so dangerous?” Gao Xiu asked fearfully.
“Haha, don’t we already have live targets ready for that?” Shen Yuan laughed and pointed at the Azure Sky Sect disciples.
The disciples’ eyes lit up as they understood what Shen Yuan was planning; their smiles turned mischievous as they looked at each other.
Shen Yuan smiled and took out a bow. “Let’s wait until they surround the honeycomb before doing it.”
He patiently waited for the disciples of Azure Sky Sect to make a move, watching them prepare themselves.
Shen Yuan watched as the disciples slowly took out a torch and burned it to create smoke to drive away the bees, slowly inching closer to the honeycomb as Shen Yuan pulled the bowstring and made an arrow out of his Qi.
“Just a bit more,” he softly muttered as he saw the Azure Sky Sect’s disciples getting closer and closer to the honeycomb.
Shen Yuan’s eyes sharpened as he saw the perfect opportunity to shoot; he took aim above the heads of the disciples where they were holding the torches.
SWISH
The arrow cleaved through the air without making a sound as it released threads of Qi around itself and destroyed all the torches that the disciples were holding up.
Ling Mei and the others’ eyes widened in shock as they saw the arrow heading directly for the honeycomb.
“No no no.”
“The honeycomb will be destroyed!!”
“Senior Brother!”
All the disciples hurriedly spoke as they saw the arrow not stopping.
Shen Yuan smiled and raised his hand lightly, “Calm down and just watch.”
On the other side, the eyes of Azure Sky Sect disciples widened in fear as they felt an arrow zooming past them.
They didn’t think someone would be lurking at this instance, and worse, that arrow could have taken their lives.
But what they didn’t expect was that the arrow was heading directly towards the honeycomb. Their eyes widened as, before they could react, the arrow exploded some distance away from the honeycomb.
Startling all the Golden Nectarbees inside the honeycomb. Soon everyone heard a buzzing sound; everyone’s heart froze as their bodies tensed.
Slowly, one after another, shiny golden bees started coming out of the honeycomb.
The disciples felt their scalps numbing as their hearts turned cold, sweat forming on their foreheads just at the mere sight of them.
“RUN!” The leader of the Azure Sky Sect disciples shouted before he started running away.
The disciples’ eyes widened as they followed suit and started sprinting after their young master. free𝑤ebnovel.com
Yet the Golden Nectarbees seemed angrier than ever as they all left the nest, except a few to guard it, and started flying after the Azure Sky Sect.
“Fuck fuck fuck! Which bastard was it who shot that arrow?” The leader of the disciples cursed as he ran at full speed.
But the Golden Nectarbees were able to keep up with him without any problem. He took out his main weapon, a folding fan, to attack the bees in hopes of scaring them away. Read the latest on
But this only seemed to anger them, as a lot more started following after him.
The other disciples didn’t fare all that well either, as the bees stung them continuously.
Shen Yuan smirked, seeing this scene as the disciples behind him also giggled softly, their laughter resounding like a morning bell.
“Hahaha, look at them running like defeated dogs.”
“Senior Brother is so awesome; he managed to clear the honeycomb without destroying it.”
Ling Mei nodded her head as she put a hand on her chest and exhaled in relief, “I really thought Senior Brother would destroy the honeycomb with that arrow.”
Wan Ling raised her head proudly, “You are underestimating Senior Brother Shen Yuan too much then. Hehe, it was only natural that he would use the most effective strategy.”
“Don’t mind the small details, let’s go and collect the honey. It is enough for all of us to improve ourselves.” Shen Yuan waved his hand and started heading towards the honeycomb.
“It’s a good thing the poison in the Golden Nectarbee’s sting isn’t life-threatening. So they should be fine with it, hehe.” Chen Yue giggled softly while informing the younger disciples not to worry about the Azure Sky Sect.
They continued chatting as Shen Yuan walked in front of the group towards the honeycomb.
‘Hmm, should I try to grow these bees inside my Dual Cultivation Space?’ Shen Yuan thought inwardly while looking at the honeycomb.
[You can’t do that inside the Dual Cultivation Chambers. It is for DUAL CULTIVATION, not for you to grow some bees.]
Yue Lan snappily replied as if she didn’t want her place to get dirty with bees.
‘Sheesh, alright, I won’t do it. No need to get angry over it.’ Shen Yuan shook his head internally with a smile.
‘But I can at least store it in the system storage so the incubated eggs inside the honeycomb can stay alive until I find a place for them to grow?’ He asked with a smile, expecting a positive answer this time.
[…fine. And you wouldn’t have been able to afford the cost of growing bees inside the Dual Cultivation Chamber anyway. Each living being inside is treated like your Dual Cultivation Partner and takes equal Chaps Coins to stay. Now imagine how many living bees there will be in under a month from a honeycomb.]
‘…’
Shen Yuan’s eyes twitched as he forgot there was a cost for using Dual Cultivation Chambers since he hasn’t used them in such a long time.
He shook his head as he soon reached under the giant tree where the honeycomb was located.
He saw quite a few shiny golden bees buzzing around the honeycomb as if vigilantly surveying the surroundings for any possible intruder.
Their defense instantly increased as Shen Yuan came close to them. He raised an eyebrow as he thought hard about how to handle them.
“Umm… Senior Brother… I can handle them.” A young disciple from the group meekly said to Shen Yuan.
“Hmm?” Shen Yuan turned his head to see Zhao Lian stepping forward, “Ah, Zhao Lian, how do you plan to do that?”
Zhao Lian’s face brightened up as Shen Yuan didn’t dismiss her but instead asked her to continue. Her courage grew as she spoke with a bit of confidence, “I’m proficient in healing with the use of needles. I can take them down by using one of the throwing needle techniques that I learned before, since there aren’t that many of them.”
Shen Yuan’s mouth twitched as he had been thinking of a way to tame the bees instead of killing them.
But seeing the excited and hopeful face of Zhao Lian, he couldn’t bring himself to reject her. ‘Oh well, I can always get new ones from the eggs inside the honeycomb.’
He smiled and stepped aside as he gestured for her to go ahead, “Sure, let us witness your needle techniques then, Zhao Lian.”
Zhao Lian nodded her head and stepped forward while bringing out a set of small needles.
