Chapter 129 Rebellion (Part 2)
[This chapter is going to be a little different from the others... I am writing this on a phone because I don't have any other device on me at the moment. I hope that you can forgive the grammatical errors that arise.]
The disciples ask came together into the spirit array and held the attendant by the collar.
"If you don't open the array, then you are going to face a date worse than death. I suggest that you do what's best for you." The disciples holding his collar said.
"Please don't make me lose my life. The pill elders will not forgive me for doing this." The attendant started sobbing.
"If only we cared about that. But look at it this way. No one will know unless your friends tell on you. And, you can always blame this little rat for the deed." He pointed to the Alchemist who was standing there.
"All of you dare actually go against this tower, I will see how you intend on getting any spirit pills at all in your life." He still had the same arrogance in him. That did not decrease even a little bit.
"You don't need him. All you need is house special token and a low grade spirit stone. I assume that he has both. Pillage him. Let the tower understand what fate awaits them if we don't help them." The senior sister said.
She was truly interesting. She was the one who instigated this rebellion to another level. And the fact that she was a core sect disciple interested me.
"Mine eye"
"Level - ?
Name - Cai Yun'er
Cultivation - ?"
"I am still not able to see what her cultivation is? This is impossible. Wait a minute, is it possible that she is in the Xiantian realm?" The mere thought of this shook my body.
"This was why both the white robed senior and master time me that I was still weak. I have to face people like these, who have been cultivating their whole life to get to the Xiantian realm. They are bound to be strong. I have an inherent disadvantage in that I started cultivating late." I sighed.
Another detail caught my eye.
"She is also getting the Cai family! She just be from the main family. Someone like that is bound to get a lot of resources. I wonder if she knows who Cai Lien is though." I thought to myself.
"Senior sister is right! There is indeed a token and a low grade spirit stone in this man's spatial ring. They can be used to activate the array." One of the men cried.

Her smile was like the smile of a cunning and sinister villain who was about to plan something. But I needed to go there and see for myself who You Feng was. I had no choice but to walk into this trap that she seemed to be making.
The runes on the teleportation array lit up and everyone walked right in. I could not fit in this round, so I decided to go ahead with the remaining people.
Surprisingly, Cai Yun'er did not leave with the first batch. That was unsettling, considered that she was the one who instigated this whole incident.
I was not sure if it was because she had some plan under way, or if she just didn't want to leave in that crowded array.
This second batch was different from the first. Everyone was apprehensive about the consequences. They were actually level headed for a change.
Cai Yun'er noticed this.
"The branch leader is not here. There is no one that can match me. Any fears that you have are unfounded. But I will not force you." She said.
Cai Lien was also in this crowd. I didn't expect some one like her to become so agitated and start the rebellion.
"Go get another token from an attendant." Cai Yun'er commanded. Her words seemed to be influential. Every one from the sect listened to her.
"I guess that is what happens when you are a core sect disciple." I shrugged.
One of the disciples ran to an attendant and grabbed him by the collar. He grabbed the token and a spirit stone from him and returned to the array.
Using the two, he activated the array. There was this trick that I didn't notice in the last teleportation, but it looked like the token was a key that allowed the user to choose where to go.
The runes of the array activated, and I felt the surroundings change.
The new floor that appeared in front of us was different, obviously. It had rooms everywhere, and no space for people. It was like a glimpse out of a hotel.
"The pill elders must reside here. That is why this floor serves no other purpose." I realised.
The people that went in before us were nowhere to be seen though. I was certainly concerned about that.
So were the others, who broke into discussion. They were suspicious of what was going on, as was I.
I shook my head and decided to break this uncomfortable rift.
"Where is You Feng? We have to teach him a lesson, should we not, senior sister?" I looked at Cai Yun'er now. The ball was in her court. How she would react to it was upto her.
"Some thing is wrong. Where are the people? I can't see anyone here. We need to regroup with them." She said.
Ping!
Ping!
Ping!
[Host is in contact with Yurian Gale! Host is in contact with Yurian Gale!]
At this moment, a horrible truth dawned upon me. There could be more than two system users, and You Feng could be Yurian Gale's target, not mine.
