Su Yizhi and the rest were elated that they could rebuild the Golden Pill Sect with the help and support of the Celestial Sect, but they were also a bit sad that their power had diminished to a point where they had to rely on other sects to rise again.
“Elder Su, you all open the mechanism first. We’ll wait for Xiaomo to come before going down together,” Ling Chuxi turned around and said to Su Yizhi.
“Ah, alright.” Su Yizhi nodded and brought the Su family disciples to the side of the cliff. At that moment, the group noticed someone crawling in the grass, sneakily trying to escape. It was the so-called Great Master Quan.
“Are you Jiang Wuhen’s fellow scammer?” Baili Han picked up Great Master Quan and asked coldly.
“What do you mean?” Jiang Wuhen and Great Master Quan exclaimed at the same time.
“A swindling and cheating scammer!” Su Xiu’er called out, rolling her eyes.
Both men immediately exploded.
“Nonsense! How am I a cheat?!” Jiang Wuhen objected loudly.
“Nonsense! I am only the most amazing mechanism master around! I would never do something so despicable!” Great Master Quan’s skinny frame shook in anger as he protested indignantly.
“All scammers say that,” Baili Han said emotionlessly, and let go of the squirming man. Great Master Quan dropped to the ground, yelping as his butt hit the ground painfully.
“I am just a passer-by, this has nothing to do with me! Can I leave?” Great Master Quan looked at the crowd pleadingly, but his gaze kept flitting to Ling Chuxi. It was obvious that she was the one who called the shots in this group.
“Didn’t you want three items from our Golden Pill Sect? You haven’t even gotten anything, so why are you rushing to leave?” Ling Chuxi felt Great Master Quan’s gaze on her and looked over with an innocent smile.
“Oh no, I was just kidding. I actually just came here to admire the great scenery of the Golden Pill Sect and wanted to pick a couple of flowers as mementos.” Great Master Quan laughed nervously, still looking around for an escape.
“Ah, then just follow us back so you can have a better look!” Ling Chuxi raised her brows and said brightly. In that instant, Great Master Quan’s expression sank.
Su Yizhi could not be bothered about him, and just asked someone to watch him as they went to fiddle with the mechanism of the cable car.
Not long after, Su Yizhi’s exclaim of delight was heard: “Done!”
After that, there was a loud rumbling from beneath the cliff, and creaking sounds rang out from the side of the cliff.
Under the shocked gazes of the crowd, the huge cable car descended slightly, then returned to its original position with a loud ‘crack’. Su Yizhi was testing the cable car.
“Alright, the mechanism has been activated.” Su Yizhi walked over, a wide smile on his face. “After the Golden Pill Sect was destroyed, the mechanism totally shut down, and the entire valley had not been accessed. Today, it will finally see the light of day again!”
“Congratulations to you all,” Duan Qingchen said courteously.
“Thank you, Senior Duan.” Ling Chuxi’s heart pounded in anticipation. She couldn’t wait to see what the Golden Pill Sect looked like!
At that moment, the sounds of hooves and a carriage filled the air. Duan Feiyu and Duan Xiaomo had finally arrived.
