As soon as Mu Chen and Yuan Mei arrived at the place all disciples and nearby helpers started murmuring as their gazes went on Mu Chen's and Yuan Mei's figure
'Couple!? Do we really look like that!?'
Yuan Mei's face slowly started to turn red from embarrassment as she heard others talk about them
Mu Chen didn't mind them and ignored them, Mu Chen along with Yuan Mei sat on an empty seat at a corner and ordered the food
'Wind Sheet!'
Mu Chen covered the place near him and Yuan Mei with a wind blanket, blocking the voice of others and preventing the voice of himself and Yuan Mei from being heard by others
"So Elder Mei I heard you are quite good at formations and talismans, can you tell me about them?"
Suddenly Mu Chen randomly questioned Yuan Mei about her field of expertise, hearing Mu Chen's question Yuan Mei's face brightened up
"Ah! Are you also interested in the field of Formations too Elder Mu Chen?"
Mu Chen nodded and replied "Yeah last time I used an illusion formation but it seems I ended up causing trouble for others instead, I still haven't found a good solution for that and I had to remove that formation..."
Yuan Mei remembered the time and nodded in understanding, and started talking
"If Elder Mu wants to know about formation then I'm afraid it will take about a decade....
Formations require the user to flow the right amount of energy in the formation and the formation should be at least 97% correct for it to activate correctly
The formations are very detailed things so one wrong step can cause the whole formation to turn into another thing!
Although I don't like bragging, I myself am the best formation master on this continent!
I have learned all kinds of formation techniques available here!"
As Yuan Mei talked about the formations all of her nervousness and shy nature suddenly disappeared
She talked with confidence and a mature tone that was visible in her voice
Mu Chen nodded at her words and seemed interested but suddenly a thought came to his mind making him amazed
'All formations available? There are about 223,040 formations available in Heavenly Jade Sect and she knows them all!
Just how much of a formation fanatic is this person to know them all!'
"Th-then do you mind giving me basic knowledge about the formations...?"
Mu Chen asked Yuan Mei with an innocent face
Yuan Mei came to her senses and saw Mu Chen making an innocent face with big shiny eyes
"Of-ofcourse!!! It will be my pleasure!!!"
Yuan Mei's face was completely flustered as she nodded madly charmed by Mu Chen's charm
"Then let's move to a quieter place it seems like coming to crowded places isn't a very good option for us..."
Mu Chen said as he pointed towards the increasing crowd inside the restaurant
"Oh! then let's move to another place..."
Yuan Mei also nodded and then both Mu Chen and Yuan Mei disappeared from the restaurant like a flash and next moment both of them arrived at a place below a tree and a small pond in little distance
"You see formations are divided in many parts, the first one is a foundation for whole formation, the stronger the foundation the stronger the effects of formation...."
Like that she started telling Mu Chen about formations for an whole hour, Mu Chen listened to her the whole time and even took the notes from time to time
".... the illusion formation has a slightly bigger process and ingredients demand as it needs to be used for a long time and interference with the brain of the opponent so...
... And for trap formations we need to adjust senses in formation to make it work as if a real being had sensed its prey...
... There are also some rare formations that let you increase the quality and intensity of spiritual energy in surroundings...
... And after gathering the element you need for it inside the formation... And then turn the left side energy to the upper left...
... Followed by green wood energy, after that blue water energy... Water traps are... Thunder energy to stun or paralyze the target ...
that's how it works!"
Like that 2 hours passed in just a flash and Mu Chen gained basic understanding of what Formations really are
Mu Chen thanked Yuan Mei and asked
"Thank you for your help today Elder Yuan Mei, please ask me if you need anything anytime! And can I say we are friends now?"
"Yeah! Of course we are! Hehehe!"
Yuan Mei accepted it immediately and gave Mu Chen a sweet heartfelt smile and left leaving a deep impression on Mu Chen
"Let's meet again Elder Mu!"
As Yuan Mei left Mu Chen smiled feeling a little happy and surprised
'Well that was a little unexpected despite my first impression of her she seems to be really cute...'
[Oh ho~ host~ did you finally find your wife~]
"Fuck you bitch! Let's return, those guys should have returned by now!"
With that Mu Chen also returned towards the main peak's central part on the other hand Luo Xi and Ming Yue had already arrived at mission hall along with other four disciples
"Our task is done, please check it here!"
Zhou Shiqin said as she went to the person in counter, and Yun Jian took out the corpse of 5 beasts from his storage ring
The person in-charge appraised them and nodded with approval and said "Wow! This time you guys completed the quest quite fast! Did some new guy join you this time?"
"About that... Well there are two new people who joined in our quest..."
As Zhou Shiqin said this both Ming Yue and Luo Xi came forward
"How have you been sir?"
"Been a while~"
Both Ming Yue and Luo Xi greeted the person in charge as if they already knew him
"Oh! What a surprise to meet you guys like this! Did you start doing your quests with other disciples too! Haha if I tell Disciple Qin Kai or Chu Mu they will definitely start taking more quests to go with you!"
Ming Yue scratched his hairs and took out the monster corpse he and Luo Xi hunted
"Um please just dismantle these too! We will take back all the materials!"
As Ming Yue said, a corpse of a giant wolf at the level of Demon Grandmaster and another corpse of giant bird monster at intermediate stage of Demon Grandmaster level appeared in front of them
"What the hell!!! These are Demon Grandmastert level monsters! How did they get near the sect!? And... You guys have already hunted it!!!"
The man looked at both Luo Xi and Ming Yue with shocked faces, slowly other disciples also started to gather looking at Luo Xi and Ming Yue with amazement
"Oh my God! It's really Demon Grandmast level beasts.."
"And they hunted it themselves..."
"Somehow I can remember those faces..."
"My God the wolf is so big!!!"
"That's a giant monster..."
But just as the crowd started to grow big suddenly Mu Chen appeared floating in air above the building
He had lowered his presence afraid he will attract too much attention if he was seen floating around the sect like that
