Chapter 470 The All-Round Hexagonal Talent

"My name is Chu Yutian, from Jiangdong. May I ask how you two are addressed?" A cultivator approached Chen Guan and greeted him.

“Zi Donglai… Wisteria…” Chen Guan and Teng Mingli announced their names.

Teng Mingli was unwilling to use her original name anymore, so she used the surname of Chen Guan's pseudonym and also created a pseudonym for herself.

Teng Mingli knew in her heart that the name Zi Donglai was most likely a pseudonym.

They were both somewhat surprised when they heard that the man was from Jiangdong.

"Brother Chu, could you be a descendant of King Chu?" Chen Guan saw that he looked to be about twenty-seven or twenty-eight years old, so calling him "brother" was not inappropriate.

"We're not exactly relatives, but our ancestors and King Chu are from the same clan, sharing the same surname. We're practically of the same name, so if we're really going to talk about kinship, we could say we're of the same bloodline," Chu Yutian said with a smile. "We cultivators on the back of this giant whale have formed a mutual aid alliance. Would you two be willing to join?"

"I wonder what the rules are for this alliance?" Chen Guan asked.

"The rules are simple. We live here together. If we encounter difficulties, we need to help each other. When we encounter a mysterious spirit, we need to act together and distribute the spoils together." Chu Yutian explained the rules of the alliance.

It sounds very fair. All cultivators must follow orders and fight together, and the spoils of war are distributed according to their contribution.

Chu Yutian is currently the leader elected by this small alliance, responsible for commanding and unifying distribution.

“We can join the alliance, but my eldest brother will be the leader of the alliance,” Fujimura said.

Chu Yutian was slightly taken aback. He looked at Chen Guan and saw that Chen Guan was smiling and silent. He immediately understood that Chen Guan meant the same thing.

“If you want to be the leader of the alliance, you should see if you have the qualifications.” Upon hearing what Teng Mingli said, the other cultivators put down what they were doing and walked over.

Chu Yutian waved to stop them, then looked at Chen Guan and said, "So I was just elected as a steward by everyone. The position of leader should naturally belong to the capable and virtuous. May I ask which family Brother Zi comes from, what level he is now, and what his special skills are?"

“We come from humble beginnings, not a prestigious family. I’m level 21. I don’t have any particular strengths, but I don’t have any obvious weaknesses either. I’d say I’m an all-rounder, but I usually just take on the role of the leader.” Chen Guan finished speaking and pointed to Teng Mingli beside him, saying, “My sister is level 30. She’s good at commanding and can be a commander.”

Chu Yutian and the others gaped, having never seen such a shameless and unhumble person before. They thought to themselves, "What kind of nonsense is this?"

In this day and age, being born into a prestigious family means having access to good resources and naturally possessing great strength.

Chu Yutian revealed that he came from the Chu family of Jiangdong not to show off, but to let Chen Guan and the others know that he had a certain foundation and strength, so that they could discuss the matter of getting the two of them to join the alliance.

But Chen Guan immediately said that he was a level 21 student, and that he was an all-around talent who was only responsible for being the boss.

You could say that if you were a top-tier master of level 27 or 28, you could talk like that.

What's so arrogant about a level 21 cultivator who just reached the third awakening? Everyone here is around level 20.

Most of those who dare to come to the Spirit Ruins Secret Realm are cultivators at the third level of enlightenment. Ordinary low-level cultivators don't dare to come here, except for freaks like Jiang Qiemo.

"You're in charge of being the boss, and your sister's the commander. So you two siblings are just directing from behind, using us as cannon fodder? This scheme is so cunning, the whole of China can hear it," Xie Shixi said, pursing his lips. Everyone thought the same thing: "Isn't this just a shameless rogue who doesn't want to do anything but reap the benefits?"

"That's not how it works. Without a commander, no matter how many people there are, it's useless. They're just a disorganized mess. So the commander is the soul of a team and is indispensable," Chen Guan said.

"What you say makes sense, but then tell me, if the commander is already the soul of the team, what's the point of having you as the leader?" Xie Shixi said mockingly.

“A team needs a commander to do the specific command work, but a commander alone is not enough. Someone also needs to make strategic decisions. This person is the leader of the team, the leader of the alliance, or the king or emperor in ancient times.” Chen Guan explained casually, without blushing at all, as if it were a matter of course.

"With less than twenty of us, you think you can be emperor? Are you crazy?" Xie Shixi was speechless at Chen Guan's words.

They have fewer than twenty people here now. With so few people, it's good enough if they have someone in charge. To create another boss would just be bureaucratic.

Moreover, Chu Yutian's command and teamwork abilities are well-known, and they do not believe that these two people are better than Chu Yutian.

"Brother, your level isn't high, but your ambitions are. Why don't you just wash up and go to sleep? You can have anything in your dreams." Xie Shixi said, turning around and leaving to continue digging for his secret spirit materials.

The others also scattered, not taking Chen Guan's words to heart at all, thinking they were utter nonsense.

Chen Guan didn't care. These people were all from ordinary backgrounds and their strength wasn't much different from his. It didn't matter whether he had them or not.

"Brother Zi, if you need anything in the future, come to me. It's always good to support and help each other when you're traveling," Chu Yutian said to Chen Guan.

"Alliance Leader, why are you wasting so much breath talking to them? Once these two newbies have experienced the terror of the Spirit Ruins Secret Realm, they'll probably be begging to join the alliance," Xie Shixi said.

"Call me if you need anything." Chu Yuxi ignored him, said one more thing to the two of them, and then left.

Chen Guan and Teng Mingli continued to rest while sitting. When it was time to eat, Teng Mingli was busy preparing the food.

Xie Shixi and the others felt a sense of disdain when they saw Teng Mingli busying herself around, taking care of Chen Guan as if he were a cripple.

"This guy must have been born into a family that favors sons over daughters. He's useless, lazy, and lives off sucking his sister's blood. He's worse than a maggot."

It's no wonder they think that way. Chen Guan himself is level 21, but Teng Mingli, who is impersonating his sister, is level 30. That's obviously unreasonable.

The older brother would definitely be the first to enter the secret realm. As long as his abilities are not lacking, how could his level be so much lower than his younger sister's?

Furthermore, the way Teng Mingli took care of Chen Guan, almost to the point of feeding him, inevitably led people to speculate.

Chen Guan's injuries haven't healed yet, which is why he needs Teng Mingli to take care of him like this.

Of course, even after he recovers, if Fujina Rei is willing, he wouldn't mind being taken care of as a little good-for-nothing.

Before they had even finished their meal, several figures appeared in the void, approaching them in large numbers.
