Divine Talent Born Mortal

Chapter 278: Sword Sect Again 2

So the elders wondered how they could make Zhang Yi have a greater sense of loyalty to the sect since even though he was an incredible talent he had not used any of their cultivation techniques and not even the cult's cultivation resources.

That meant they could cultivate quickly even if they were in the Serenity Sect which was his master's sect or even his other master's sect, the only thing they knew Zhang Yi liked in the sect was elder Wang Zou and Lu Bi.

After thinking for a while they decided that they could send Zhang Yi to do some missions with Lu Bi and thus bring them closer while Lu Bi could teach him some things.

For that it would have to be some early Realm of Emptiness warrior missions and pretty easy to ensure that the two would not be in danger, just like Zhang Yi, Lu Bi was not well known to the other sects and so it was safe to send her on these missions.

When Elder Wang told Lu Bi what the cult elders were thinking she was very happy about, she felt that in a few years she could be outdone by Zhang Yi in cultivation, but as Zhang Yi was very talented in cultivating qi and from mental energy she imagined that he had no time to have a high understanding of the laws.

But understanding the laws was critical to becoming a genius and a stronger warrior in the future, especially in fights between warriors of the same realm where the laws make a lot of difference.

Even Elder Wang thought Lu Bi's idea was very good and so might make Zhang Yi like the sect better, when Lu Bi told Zhang Yi that he should do some missions with her, he found it very strange.

He had been very discreet since joining the sect and so no one in the sect knew that he had supreme understanding in some laws and could fight a peak warrior of the Realm of Emptiness and still win with ease.

So he couldn't understand why he was sent on a mission with Lu Bi and she also didn't say that this was a mission to teach him some things, but he thought it was a good idea because he didn't intend to hide his skills for her. sect and so could also teach Lu Bi and perhaps in a few hundred years, she could reach the supreme understanding in the laws of space and water.

The missions they went on to do were missions that Zhang Yi was used to doing with slightly stronger warriors, their first mission being a possible case of members of the soul-eater organization.

The sect had uncovered some traces that might have been of someone devouring souls, such as they were from the emptiness realm warriors and it was not such an unusual thing the sect ordered Lu Bi, they had to investigate a village to find out if anyone was suspicious to be the member of the organization.

As Lu Bi had an advanced understanding of the laws of space she was the right person for this mission because she could run away if the mission got harder later, which the sect didn't know yet was that this was actually Zhang Yi's favorite kind of mission and what he was best at.

Lu Bi used teleportation to take them to a place near where they had to find the soul-eater member, usually, this was a difficult and time-consuming research mission and in the end a difficult fight.

"Since this is the first time you participate in an investigative mission like this I will lead, it may take a few weeks or maybe longer, but it is important that we find the member of the organization and kill him."

"Unfortunately I will have to disagree with you Lu Bi, the sect must have sent me on this mission because of my mental energy so that I can find the details more easily and keep us safe as well."

Hearing that Lu Bi got a little confused, she knew it was a sect plan to get Zhang Yi closer to the sect, but it made sense that he lead this investigation because he was a master of mental energy.

After Lu Bi agreed with him, Zhang Yi soon searched the entire village and found everyone in the Soul Refinement realm and Realm of Emptiness, there was no one in the Emperor Realm he expected, and those people were the suspects.

Then he started with the Soul Refinement realm warriors and was surprised to find no one in the organization, among the Realm of Emptiness warriors he managed to find two members of the organization.

It was a pity that he could not simply capture the two because he could not prove that they were members of the organization without even investigating, but knowing who was to blame was much easier to find evidence.

After only two days he found evidence that one of them was a member of the organization, but the other seemed to be hiding in this village and had done nothing suspicious for now.

Lu Bi who was with him was surprised after only two days they found out who was the member of the organization, but could not know why Zhang Yi had not yet gone to kill this member of the organization and was expecting something.

"Zhang Yi, from the evidence you got, we already know who the member of the organization is, so why are you still investigating?"

"I found out that there are two members of the organization in this village, but I got the evidence that only one of them is to blame and I don't know what to do now."

Lu Bi was surprised to learn that they had two members of the organization because the sect only suspected one of them and she had only found out about one of them, but she trusted Zhang Yi and kept track of how he knew what he was doing by discovering everything in only 2 days.

"So you can just kill them both, so let's do an even better job."

"I can't kill the other without proving that he is a member of the soul eater organization."

"Of course you can, that's what many do, they are in our sect territory and you just have to know who you are and not prove that you are a member of the organization."

Hearing what Lu Bi was saying, he realized he was wrong, he was wondering how before going back to the time when the sect's elders had to search the soul to prove that the captured warrior was an infiltrator of the organization of the other sects.

But they were now in Sword Sect territory and just had to kill the suspects and didn't need to prove anything, at least he knew who the culprits were, which was so much better than some Sword Sect disciples who only kill whoever they want in the villages say they are a member of the organization.

"One of them is in the third level of Realm of Emptiness and the other is in the first level of Realm of Emptiness, I face what is in the first level and you kill what is in the third level of Realm of Emptiness."

"We can't do that, Zhang Yi, you've done more than enough figuring out who the members of the organization are, now let me fight them to do something on this mission."

Zhang Yi meant he could fight someone from the peak of Realm of Emptiness and still win easily, but seeing that Lu Bi wanted to do that he let her fight them both, he was sure she was on the fourth level of Realm of Emptiness could easily beat the two by fighting alone.

So Lu Bi was smarter and attacked each other individually rather than fighting both at the same time, she quickly killed the first level warrior of Realm of Emptiness using the water laws and soon after killed the other warrior.

After that, they both returned to the sect and Zhang Yi was pleased with the mission she had done, but Lu Bi was not, she found everything Zhang Yi did amazing, but she should have done more things in this mission and taught some things to Zhang Yi.
