…
Looking at consecutive notifications in front of his eyes, it is very gratifying for Qin Yi.
There are so many unfamiliar treasures that he never received from Deacon.
Not bad, at least I'm not lost money for nothing! Qin Yi silently thought.
Although he was excited after receiving so many treasures at once, he had no plan to inspect it now.
He wants to go to Treasure Pavilion first and then head to Myriad Book Pavilion. After he goes back, he would finally inspect the harvest today.
With the triple thugs gone, the surrounding onlookers also disperse as there was nothing else to watch.
Just as he thought that everyone was leaving, a young man suddenly approached Qin Yi.
He was a good-looking young man, sharp eyes, sword-like eyebrows, and his hair spiky back due to the headband.
Seeing this young man coming to him, Qin Yi grew wary.
"What do you want? Just so you know, I just received protection from that triple thugs. You better give up the idea of extorting money from me!"
The young man laughed as soon as he heard Qin Yi referred those henchmen as triple thugs. That name is very befitting with the way they act.
"Do not fret, brother. I do not have that kind of intention. I just want to know you."
Qin Yi did not completely let down his wariness, "Senior brother, I am just a new disciple, and I do not deserve to be your acquaintance or friend."
The young man raised his eyebrows and asked, "Are you by chance born in mortal family?"
Qin Yi hesitates for a while before he is nodding, "Yes."
"I see, it's no wonder." The young man said with a faint smile, "My name is Gao Peng. You just need to call me Brother Gao Peng. The word "Senior Brother" only applies to fellow disciple who have a realm above yours or have a status above yours. This is common knowledge in the cultivation sect."
"I watched the show earlier. It was quite boring, but I do admire your decision to give up spirit stones in exchange for safety. It was a smart move, different from most previous newcomers. They need to go through the process of chastening before they realize that they can do nothing but give up."
Qin Yi scratched his head in embarrassment. He just mainly does not like getting hurt.
Giving away his wealth is better than getting beaten up, but it would be embarrassing if he says it aloud.
"Brother Gao, do you need something from me?" asks Qin Yi.
"Like I said, I just want to get to know you."
Gao Peng came closer and stopped in front of Qin Yi. He said with a friendly intention, "I have been in the outer sect for about five years. As a new outer disciple, you must be planning on going to the Treasure Pavilion, right? I know the way, if you don't mind, I can act as guide for you."
Qin Yi's eyes lit up slightly; this guy is nice!
Even though he had an outer sect map, it was no better than being guided by someone who knew the way.
However, he suddenly reveals a troubled expression.
"What's wrong?" Gao Peng puzzled.
"Err… Brother Gao, I don't have money left. Can you do it for free?"
Gao Peng's lips twitched.
What are you take me for? A tour guide?
"It's fine. I just want to help you."
Qin Yi cups his fist gratefully, "Then, I will trouble you, Brother Gao."
With Gao Peng walking in front, Qin Yi followed behind.
Gao Peng was a pretty good fellow disciple, at least what Qin Yi saw on the surface.
Along the way, he introduced several buildings and locations in the outer sect. He also talked about which places he could go and which ones he should not.
He had read some essential buildings in the outer sect from the Guidebook, but Gao Peng's explanation also helped him a lot.
Take the Treasure Pavilion, for example. The Treasure Pavilion was one of the most critical places in the entire sect. A powerful elder strictly guarded it, and people are not allowed to enter unless they get permission.
According to the sect rules, each new disciple can pick a treasure from the Treasure Pavilion, either an artifact, heaven and earth material, a pill, or other precious treasure.
However, not all disciples use this opportunity to take something from Treasure Pavilion. Some of them are willing to exchange it for merit points or spirit stones.
At this time, the two of them were still on their way, and Gao Peng suddenly asked, "By the way, do you know who the boss of the three disciples is who collected money from you earlier?"
Qin Yi shook his head.
He just arrived at the outer sect; how could he know who their boss is. Are you kidding?
Gao Peng, "Their boss is Yang Kai; his cultivation base is at the Eight Stage of Qi Condensation, and he is one of the disciples who have a potential to enter Foundation Realm before thirty."
"You see, aptitude is very important for a cultivator to determine a potential, it also helps cultivators to cultivate faster than others. Yang Kai's aptitude is only mid-grade, but his elder brother helped him to raise it to a high-grade aptitude by using Aptitude Enchanting Pill he exchanged from the Treasure Pavilion."
Qin Yi was surprised, "There is such a pill in the Treasure Pavilion?"
"Of course, there is." Gao Peng chuckled, "In fact, there are many kinds of treasures in the Treasure Pavilion, but you need to exchange it with merit points."
"Merit points?" Qin Yi repeats it with doubt.
"Merit points are points that can be earned by completing certain missions in the Mission Hall, and they can be exchanged for various treasures in the Treasure Pavilion. As a new outer disciple, apart from obtaining a treasure from the Treasure Hall, you can also receive a Merit Card from there." Gao Peng explained patiently.
Qin Yi nodded in understanding, and then he continued to listen to Gao Peng's speaking.
"Originally the outer sect was quite a peaceful place. Although competition and friction did occur occasionally, it was not as severe as it is now. At that time, there was no such thing as a protection fee as the disciples were still minding their own business, and most of them were either busy practicing, cultivating, or earning merit points."
"However, ever since Yang Kai's elder brother was accepted as an inner elder's disciple, Yang Kai began to act more boldly. He was originally arrogant, narrow-minded, and a bully, but now he acts like a boss and regards the outer sect as his basecamp. He likes to oppress weak especially the newcomers, and everyone were basically needed to give him some face like he was an official or something. Even outer elders could do nothing against Yang Kai's atrocious behaviors. Fortunately, there are still a few outer disciples could somehow restrain him, their status are not less than Yang Kai's."
Gao Peng is speaking about Yang Kai, and somehow Qin Yi could see a hint of anger yet full of helplessness on Gao Peng's expression.
Well, it is understandable. Even Qin Yi's mood was a bit affected after hearing Yang Kai's atrocious behaviors. However, he did not say anything since he was far from experienced it like Gao Peng.
"Anyway, you should stay away from anything related to Yang Kai and his men. Although it sounded cowardly, it was better than ended tragically like the previous newcomers." Gao Peng said seriously.
Qin Yi nodded thoughtfully in response to Gao Peng's advice.
He understands this matter very well. Since he could not fight them, then staying away from them was the best option.
This is not cowardice but strategy.
Not long after, the two of them arrived at the Treasure Pavilion.
It was a magnificent building with golden pillars and carved by the finest materials.
Gao Peng, "Since we're here, I'll take my leave. The elder in charge of the Treasure Pavilion has a strange temper. He doesn't allow disciples inside unless they want to spend merit points in exchange for treasures."
Qin Yi nodded and said earnestly, "Brother Gao, you have wasted your time to guide me here. I am truly grateful. Later, if Brother Gao need my help, you just need to come to my cave. I will try my best to help you as long as it is still within my capability."
"Ha-ha, it's nothing serious. I just want to help you seems you are look like a smart person. I like being friend with people like you. However, I will remember your words today. Be sure to remember it, Brother- "
The smile on Gao Peng's face suddenly froze when he realized that he did not know the name of the person he is talking to.
"Brother, what's your name again?"
Qin Yi: "…"
Brother, are you kidding?
We talk like brothers, and you even drove me here, yet you still do not know my name?
'System, extract him!'
