Martial Cultivator Chapter 515: Cause and Effect Are Connected

Chen Chao sat in place, watching that girl jog to catch up with her senior brothers and sisters, only to receive a scolding.

Chen Chao had actually heard clearly what they had said about sect ruins. They regarded him as merely a martial artist with no special abilities, so they did not use any secret art to conceal their conversation or speak telepathically. However, due to the white mist within him, Chen Chao had heard their conversation clearly. It was only now that he started to grasp the situation. The Northern Frontier was a showdown involving the three parties: the demon race, the Great Liang, and the foreign lands. Each had their own interests. Although the Infatuation Daoist Temple was a leading force among the daoist sects and had significant influence in the foreign lands, it was not easy to get these young qi refiners to engage with the demon race in the Northern Frontier. Chen Chao had been wondering why, and now he understood that the desolate northern plains must hold something of interest to these foreign sects, which was why they were willing to take the risk and participate.

This thing must be what they called sect ruins.

The thirty thousand miles of the desolate north might conceal some secrets, and foreign lands had known this for a long time. However, the Great Liang Dynasty's Northern Frontier Great Wall had blocked their way before, making it hard for them to enter. This time, with the opportunity presenting itself, it was a perfect match.

Chen Chao sighed, “In the end, no one will put in effort without benefits."

As for those few qi refiners earlier, Chen Chao did not have any good feelings toward them, but it was not to the extent that he wanted to kill them on the spot. It was just that if his identity were to be exposed and if they happened to have a high cultivation level, it was likely that there would be a life-and-death battle. However, that was all in the past. Tonight's encounter, what ultimately made Chen Chao forget about it was after the Liang surname girl's final apology.
