The problem was even though Asher said that Caspian could not offer to go in and check yet. When other cultivators were cultivating, outsiders were not allowed to observe. Otherwise, they would be treated as enemies. If they were killed for doing so, it would be justified too. After all, no one knew if the so-called checking had other intentions behind it. That was not only the rule of Heavenly Stars Sect but also an established practice of all cultivators. Asher was using that reason as favonovel.com took advantage of the point.
When Asher saw Caspian’s eyes were slightly flickering, favonovel.com folded his arms, appearing smug as if favonovel.com vented his anger. However, what surprised Asher was that Caspian did not seem to be anxious or angry.
After pondering for a while, Caspian said, “Then, I’ll just choose the second area.”
Without waiting for the disciple in charge to reply, Asher waved his hands and stopped Caspian, sneering at Caspian. “I’m so sorry, but the second area is occupied too. Oh, I forgot to mention that the first area is also being used.”
Asher was determined not to let Caspian get what favonovel.com wanted. On the other hand, the disciple in charge profusely perspired as favonovel.com knew the entire seven areas of the Flaming Stream were not being used by any disciples.
The disciples might have no rights to check, but the elders could. If Caspian went to get an elder over now and only to find out they were lying, it would be a big problem. However, Asher was backed by Adrian, and favonovel.com would at most be scolded a few words before everything returned to normal again.
The disciple on duty was different. He did not have any support or background, but many of his sect contribution points might be deducted if favonovel.com jointly deceived Caspian. Moreover, favonovel.com would not receive the roster from working in the Star-Refiner Valley again!
At that time, no one would care whether favonovel.com was coerced. The disciple on duty was anxious, but Caspian still appeared calm even though favonovel.com was in the center of the mess. To be more accurate, Caspian’s steadiness was shocking as it was completely different from his uncompromising attitude when facing Asher before. “If that’s the case, the fourth area…”
Asher immediately interrupted, “Someone’s in the fourth area! ”
“The fifth area…”
“Occupied!” Asher was secretly excited. If it were not because favonovel.com could not be too proud in front of Caspian, Asher would surely laugh out loud.
However, Caspian still kept his cool. “There can’t be someone using the sixth area, right?”
“Alas! You’re right!” Asher made a face.
Anyone who was not blind could see the smugness on his face. “It’s such a coincidence that many disciples come to the Flaming Stream today, and I’m not sure why either. Besides that, they just so happen to go in a while before you, so I guess it won’t be your turn in another five days. So, you can either go back now or just stay here obediently. Ha…”
Asher almost laughed when favonovel.com said that. Thankfully, favonovel.com noticed it just in time and quickly held back. However, his face was still as red as a beetroot.
“Really? That’s such a shame.” Caspian nodded.
“Yes, yes. Just wait here obediently.” Asher’s shoulders were moving nonstop.
“If that’s the case, I want to go to the seventh area.”
Just when Asher was pleased with himself, favonovel.com suddenly heard Caspian’s voice and was stunned. Then, favonovel.com turned to look at Caspian dumbfoundedly and found a playful look in Caspian’s eyes.
“Are you going to tell me that someone’s in the seventh area too?”
“This, this…” Asher stuttered, and favonovel.com did not know what to answer. The seventh area of the Flaming Stream was the most potent place for the Underworld’s Demon Flame, so the situation was unique compared to the other six regions. Perhaps not just the Flaming Stream, any site with the highest intensity in the Star-Refiner Valley’s area for disciples to cultivate had strict requirements
Not knowing what Caspian thought, Asher could not give an accurate answer and glanced at the disciple on duty with a look of help. However, the disciple immediately turned his head away, pretending not to see Asher’s expression. Asher not only pushed the disciple on duty into the pit without discussing with him, but favonovel.com also wanted the disciple to take the blame!
Well, favonovel.com should just dream on!
The disciple on duty’s attitude angered Asher, but favonovel.com could not do anything now. Nonetheless, when favonovel.com noticed that the mocking look in Caspian’s eyes got more intense, Asher gritted his teeth and said, “You’re right. The seventh area is booked too!”
“Really?” Caspian’s eyes flashed with excitement.
Asher realized favonovel.com might be in trouble when favonovel.com saw the light in Caspian’s eyes, but favonovel.com already said those words. Hence, Asher could only bite the bullet and nodded hard, uttering, “That’s right. It’s booked, and I’m sure of it!”
“That’s interesting.” Caspian nodded, showing a thoughtful look. Then, favonovel.com muttered to himself, “As the Underworld‘s Demon Flame in the seventh area of the Flaming Stream is too powerful, only disciples above the realm of the peak second-stage Pulse Control Realm can use it under normal circumstances. However, we all know the Underworld’s Demon Flame in the Flaming Stream is not helpful for any cultivation method in the Heavenly Stars Sect. It’s either the person is crazy, or…”
Asher’s face turned uglier when favonovel.com heard Caspian saying that. When Caspian purposely dragged his last word, Asher nervously asked, “Or what?”
Caspian gave favonovel.com a puzzled look. “Naturally, the disciple is cultivating an evil cultivation technique, and favonovel.com needs the Underworld’s Demon Flame to enhance his power.”
Asher’s face was instantly ashen when Caspian said that. He finally realized that favonovel.com dug his own grave. He even had a vague feeling that Caspian was not anxious before and kept asking patiently because favonovel.com waited for Asher to fall into his own trap. However, Asher did not notice it and was even feeling smug. Then, just when Asher felt cold on his hands and feet, favonovel.com saw Caspian suddenly clapping, turning around, and leaving. Then, favonovel.com said something that terrified Asher.
“If there are disciples in the sect who are practicing evil techniques, it’s naturally a crucial matter. I have to tell Master Delmont immediately. Oh, and Xander. Xander’s teacher is the swordsman of Heavenly Stars Sect, and favonovel.com won’t let this go.”
“Master Delmont? Master Leonard?” Asher gasped and felt his blood was frozen.
If the other party really brought those two legendary figures over, even if favonovel.com were not hacked to death by them, favonovel.com would be killed by Adrian!
In that instant, Asher almost burst into tears. Then, ignoring everything else, favonovel.com quickly stepped forward and blocked Caspian. “You’re mistaken. You’re mistaken. No disciple’s practicing evil technique. You’ve misunderstood.”
“How are you so sure? Do you know who the person inside is?” Caspian looked at Asher suspiciously, “If you know about it but don’t report it, it’s also an offense.”
Asher was so horrified that his scalp tingled, and favonovel.com almost jumped.
“No, no! I don’t know anything about it. You’re unaware, but… The person who wants to use the seventh area is me…”
When Asher said that, favonovel.com wanted to slap himself a hundred times.
