Martial Peak

At that very instant, everyone’s breath was heavy. However, Lan Chudie still remained alert and quickly everyone. “Wait! Check if there are any dangers around first!” It was strange for such wealth to be here without a trap.

The five people quickly spread out and scouted the area. Fortunately, they did not discover any traps.

Even after scouting around, Lan Chudie did not feel relieved. She picked up a stone and inspected it. When there was absolutely no reaction that occurred, she took a breath of relief and nodded. “Alright it’s safe.”

The five members looked at each other first, before they all hastily collected the stones. The other member would quickly bag all the stone but Yang Kai was more selective. Since he only needed one type of stone, he only collected Yang Stones.

After picking for a while, Lan Chudie’s smile suddenly stiffen up. She took another look at the stone in her hand and let out a sigh. Letting it drop to the ground.

Her actions immediately brought doubt to Nie Yong. “Lan Female Appentice. What’s wrong?”

“Stop collecting the stones.” Lan Chudie said. “ If we were to bring such a heavy bag of good with up as we explore, it would only consume our strength. Likewise, if we encounter any danger later it will only slow us down when we try to escape. If such a scenario occurred, we would probably lose it in the end.”

After hearing listening to reason, everyone responded with disappointment. They had forgotten their safety due to their own greed.

Lan Chudie continued. “Furthermore, we have just entered this place. There are bound to be more treasures here. Think about it. There are no traps here. Certainly, if this was that valuable, there would be traps set up here right? So, it is only reasonable that to think that these stone are not worth much as compared to the other treasures this place has to offer. The real treasures are waiting for us to be found!”

Nie Yong nodded in approval. “Yes. It is as Lan Female apprentice said.”

Zuo An also nodded in agreement.

Du Yishuang gave a reluctant look to the stones in her hands and tossed it back to the ground.

Only Yang Kai continued collecting nonchalantly. He continued as though Lan Chudie had not said anything. His actions made Lan Chudie’s brow wrinkled.

Yang Kai explained while he was sorting the stones he collected. “If we truly encounter danger, it will not be too late to abandon the stones.”

Lan Chudie did not further make any remarks. “Do as you please.” She turned around and began to walk. “However, we will not wait for you to sort the stone. Just make sure you don’t take too much.”

Yang Kai nodded in agreement. “Sure, you guy should go on first.”

Thus, Lan Chudie no longer wasted a single second as carried on. Meanwhile, Zuo An looked at Yang Kai with a demeaning gaze. On the other hand, Nie Yong was more vocal of his opinion. “Apparently, you do not realize the dangers this world contains! You will lose these stones sooner or later. Why even bother collecting them!”

She held a good opinion of Yang Kai and supported him. “It’s okay. I’ll
