I Am Born With A Sliver Spoon

Chapter 776

Chen Haotian had escaped because Chen Hao let him escape, thinking that the man would lead him straight to the Hidden Dragon Island. However, he didn’t expect Chen Haotian to go into hiding all alone.

Since Chen Haotian had lost his value, Chen Hao showed no mercy and immediately began reciting the spell that would kill him from afar.

Luckily, he’d already found Master Ghost and once the man had regained his vital energy, he’d probably have no trouble locating Chen Hao’s family.

It was during this recovery period that Xiao Cangsheng and the others became impatient, for they all came to make a request to Chen Hao to establish a cultivation sect of his own in order to assert his influence.

This time, the suggestion was immediately approved by Master Ghost, who agreed that establishing Chen Hao’s own sect was important. After all, the Chen family wouldn’t be the only thing they’d have to deal with in the future; the fact that Chen Hao’s family had been kidnapped showed how impractical it was for him to do everything himself. That last point hit especially hard for Chen Hao.

“I guess it’s time for us to establish our own sect!” Chen Hao nodded, looking at the expectant crowd.

“Great!”

“Haha, yeah! From now on, we’ll be part of a legitimate organization!”

“From now on, let’s call Mr. Chen our Lord instead! Master Ghost can be his strategist with his powers of foresight!” Most of the people present were rogue cultivators, so they began discussing the sect excitedly.

“Greetings, my Lord!” Immediately, Xiao Cangsheng and Lin Jiu led the others in a loud greeting that made Chen Hao smile awkwardly.

Looking exasperated, Master Ghost said, “What’s the rush? Even if we do make our own sect, we have to occupy a territory and establish a name before notifying the People’s Palace of our activities!”

“Yes, our strategist is right! We don’t even have a name yet, I think?”

“Besides, where exactly is our territory? It can’t be where the Shen Family is? That’s in the city area!” someone chimed in.

“Hehe, I actually have a suggestion for that—Xuanyang Mountain! After the incident, the master of Xuanyang Temple became worried about the Chen Family’s retaliation, and was thinking of letting us occupy the mountain instead. That settles it, I guess!” Master Ghost said.

“Such a big mountain? It would definitely work!” Everyone smiled.

“As for the name, we’ll have to ask Chen Hao to come up with one in order to satisfy us.” Master Ghost bowed slightly. In truth, he’d decided to follow Chen Hao ever since they met at Dragon Mountain, and had been preparing for this moment to become the latter’s loyal follower since then.

“Xuanyang Mountain, Xuanyang Temple, and even the power that I’ve awakened in the beginning was called the Xuanyang Power of Heaven and Earth. I think I have quite a history with the name Xuanyang now. All right, we’re calling our new sect the Xuanyang Palace!” Chen Hao said after some thought.

“Xuanyang Palace? Master Chen—no, Lord Chen, that is a great name!” A voice called out from outside. It was a middle-aged man, and he was Yun Haotian, who Chen Hao had previously saved and was currently taking refuge with the Shen Family.

“Oh, Sergeant Yun! How are your injuries?” Chen Hao greeted him with a smile.

Yun Haotian was from the military as the sergeant and leader of a small team within the Dragon Squad. He’d dabbled in cultivation but never went beyond that. Because of his origins as a soldier, Chen Hao thought highly of him despite his mediocre abilities. Naturally, Yun Haotian reciprocated with the utmost respect for him.

“I have fully recovered after you healed me, my Lord. I heard you summoned me, so here I am!” Yun Haotian bowed slightly.

“Mm hmm. I heard from Master Ghost that the Dragon Squad has a very organized network of underground resources, so there’s a favor I need to ask from you!” Chen Hao said.

“You saved my life, my Lord. Your wish is my command!” Yun Haotian replied.

“Lin Jiu, Xiao Cangsheng,” Chen Hao said to the two men. Material © NôvelDrama.Org.

“Yes, my Lord!”

“Since we’ve settled things regarding the Xuanyang Palace, can the two of you delegate the task of completing the sect’s setup among yourselves? Take care of things while I finish some business of my own,” Chen Hao instructed. Everyone immediately complied by leaving the room after hearing his orders.

“Master Ghost told me that you were trying to look for the Hidden Dragon Island?” Yun Haotian asked.

“Yeap!”

“This island is extremely secluded and all its inhabitants have been cursed. None of them can reveal the island’s location without dying on the spot. It was exactly because of this twisted reason that no one has been able to locate it for so long—not even those in the cultivation world know where it is!” Yun Haotian explained.

No wonder Chen Haotian would rather risk death in escaping. He would have died in front of me the moment he revealed anything! Chen Hao nodded in understanding, then asked slightly anxiously, “So, is there really no way to find out?”

“Not exactly. My Dragon Squad has this relic called the Ashura Compass, and my father had actually formed a friendship with Master Ghost after repeatedly crossing paths with him because of this. With the Compass, the Dragon Squad’s underground network and Master Ghost’s Nine Dragons Divination Technique, I’m sure we can find the island in no time!” Yun Haotian said.

“Chen Hao, I had summoned him for this exact reason. To find the island, we must have the Compass. I’m sure Mr. Yun can help with that,” Master Ghost said to Chen Hao.

“Alright!” Chen Hao nodded.

Yun Haotian suddenly lowered his head in contemplation, then said softly and hesitantly, “I also have a small favor to ask, my Lord, but I’m not sure if I should say it!”

“What is it?” Chen Hao asked.

“Ahem. After the battle, I realized that my Dragon Squad is too weak to face certain powerful enemies, and I heard from Master Lin Jiu that you planned to teach the Xuanyang Palace members some useful mystical formations. We may not be as talented as Master Lin Jiu, but I thought that with your expertise in the mystical formations, you could spend a few days teaching the members of the Dragon Squad something as well. It would be really helpful to us!” Yun Haotian said with clear desire. If Chen Hao agreed, then the Dragon Squad would undeniably become stronger than they could ever imagine.

“Hmm…” Now that Chen Hao thought about it, he did know some moves that were suitable for the Dragon Squad’s own cultivation training. Naturally, he’d do his best to help the Dragon Squad ensure their own safety even if Yun Haotian hadn’t asked. “Alright, I’ll do it!”
