"What does an internal disciple do here?"
"Shh, do not speak out loud or he will want to take our places"
Many of the external disciples who were stationed in the long line noticed the arrival of Bao Zhang and muttered among themselves, with some fear that Bao Zhang would use his power of internal disciple and take their place.
"s.h.i.+t…"
Bao Zhang could only curse at the situation and then go to the position at the end of the row.
It is known that the store of 'The External Medicine Pa.s.sage' is the largest store within the Sect and the only place from where you can obtain resources brought from the exterior.
Resources brought from the exterior?
The 'Sect of the Golden Sword' is almost completely isolated, the only nearby kingdom is the 'Kingdom of Zung', a lower kingdom controlled by the royal family.
'The External Medicine Pa.s.sage' began as a small store in the central zone, but after it managed to obtain an internal pa.s.sage to bring resources from the exterior, with time it became the greatest power within the Sect.
And that is why every day, whether in its branches within the internal section or the external section, every morning there are large lines in front of the branch shops 'The External Medicine Pa.s.sage'. with hundreds of disciples who get up early to be able to buy some cultivation resources that can only be obtained from the exterior.
...
Bao Zhang continued to wait, while over time, more and more outside disciples lined up at the end of the row.
but each time, the disciples, including Bao Zhang, began to feel more annoyed over time.
And that's because the row had not advanced anything in all this time they were waiting!
"What the f.u.c.k happens that the row does not advance! I'm waiting here, since the morning!"
"When the row is going to advance!? f.u.c.k!"
"s.h.i.+t! We should have entered already!"
The curses were made to rain among the disciples who were waiting in the long row.
Even Bao Zhang who was waiting, could not help but frown with annoyance;
's.h.i.+t, how come I, an old G.o.d, come to this situation where I have to be waiting in front of a d.a.m.n store to be treated? s.h.i.+t! Surely if the other G.o.ds saw me right now, they will die laughing!'
Bao Zhang, some time ago, had the idea of entering the store by force, but he did not, because if he did, that would mean offending the 'External Medicine Pa.s.sage' and becoming deadly enemies.
It is not as if he were afraid of the 'External Medicine Pa.s.sage', but he would not go foolishly provoking and becoming enemies with whom he crossed.
So he let out a heavy and tired sigh, as he decided to wait patiently in the row...
...
Inside the big store of 'The External Medicine Pa.s.sage'.
In the highest room. There were several people gathered in a large dark room, where only a small light was suspended above the large table parked in the center. The small light was a whitish color and looked like a firefly that magically floated in the air, faintly illuminating half of the faces of several of the people who were gathered there.
"Have they been able to find out the place?"
Suddenly, the voice of an older man sounded inside the room, causing the people who were there to raise their faces showing respect.
"Sir, we have not yet been able to discover the specific place"
"That's right, but we're sure of something!"
"Oh, of what? Tell it to this old man" the voice spoke with tonó slightly interested.
A visible figure of a young man approaches the table, and kneels with one leg resting on the floor, showing his clear respect for the older man's mysterious voice;
"Lord, this Disciple has managed to discover that there is a %80 probability that what we are looking for is hidden in the first mountain, within the central section"
The old voice showed a slight change when hearing that;
"Are you sure, boy? Look what, I'll kill you if it turns out you're wrong"
"This humble Disciple is sure!"
"Sir, during my investigation, I have come to the same conclusion as Brother!" Another young figure of a man, who was barely visible, came forward and bowed, while supporting the words of the previous Disciple.
The old man's mysterious voice kept delaying for a second, and then continued;
"Okay, I'll pa.s.s this information to the other top members to have it reviewed, meanwhile, you start preparing for the next tournament, we might have to act during that time!"
"Yes, sir!" The voices inside the great hall nodded strongly.
All the people who were there, in that meeting.
Everyone belonged and were members of the 'External Medicine Pa.s.sage'!
"Sir, we have also discovered that the 'Celestial Eagle Messenger House' has been trying to track us and discover our plans, should we do something?"
"Celestial Eagle Messenger House," the old voice murmured, while releasing a snort of contempt;
"Do not bother with that store s.h.i.+t, they're just garbage, dogs that want to find all the ways to lick the boots the Patriarch of the Sect"
The words of the old voice were full of contempt for the name of 'Celestial Eagle Messenger House' while showing the deep displeasure that had them.
But none of the people in the room refuted the words, since they nodded slightly, showing agreement with the affirmations of the old voice.
"Is there anything else they want to report?"
"No sir, that's all!"
"Well! Then I will leave, continue with the work of managing this branch "leaving those last words, the mysterious voice of the old man vanished as if it had never been and was only an illusion ...
The people inside let out sighs of relief, as they looked at each other and could see some fear on their faces from the old man's voice.
None of them could see the figure of the mysterious voice, and that was not because the old man was not there, quite the opposite. They knew that the old man had been sitting at the side of the table while listening to their reports. but none of them could see or detect it, which was due to the difference in cultivation!
The cultivation of that old man was so superior to theirs, that in spite of being in front of the old man, they could not see him if the old man did not want to be seen.
Shaking their heads, the people inside began to come out and return to their jobs ...
