The toughest parts of a beast were usually their fangs and claws. Everything aside from those two would be relatively inexpensive.
However, knowing the young man's strength, the crowd did not dare utter a word of complaint. They reluctantly nodded before getting to dismantling the carcass as well.
It did not take them long to dissect the massive wolf carcass.
The various body parts of the Goldface Skywolf were invaluable materials, but given Zhang Xuan's current wealth, they were not enough to catch his eye. Besides, those cultivators had gone through a lot in order to kill the beast. As a master teacher, it would be inappropriate for him to steal their loot.
From how they divided the spoils of victory, Zhang Xuan noticed a few subtle details.
He had thought that their group had known one another prior to entering the folded space, but that was not the case.
It was clear that they were guarded against one another, and in the distribution of the spoils of victory, they attempted to claim as much for themselves as possible. Despite having decided to group up together, it seemed like their hearts were not aligned with one another.
The strongest young man, who seemed to serve as the de facto leader of the group, suddenly approached Zhang Xuan. "Friend, it seems like you are wandering around the area alone. Why don't you join our group? The area around the Temple of Confucius is vast, and there are many experts and beasts roaming around. Not only is it dangerous for you to venture about the area alone, it will be difficult for you to acquire anything good given your limited fighting prowess!"
"We can watch each other's back in a group!"
"Putting everything aside, the Goldface Skywolf that we have just defeated has already gone extinct on the Master Teacher Continent, making it an extremely rare and invaluable existence! Without sufficient strength, it would be difficult to acquire even a clump of its hair, let alone its hide and claws!"
The others quickly nodded in agreement.
Venturing around in a group would mean having to split any loot with the group, but the Temple of Confucius was not short of treasures!
Besides, it would be difficult for an individual to fend off the dangers lurking in the area alone and acquire anything substantial. Furthermore, if a stronger expert robbed him, he would be completely helpless against the other party!
Back on the Master Teacher Continent, out of deference for the Master Teacher Pavilion, cultivators would dare not go overboard. However, they were currently in a folded space filled with threats at every corner. Even the arm of the Master Teacher Pavilion was not strong enough to enforce its rules within the folded space!
One could kill a couple of people and dispose of their corpses, and no one would be any the wiser!
This folded space was, in the truest sense, a land of lawlessness. The only thing that could bind one's actions were one's principles and morals.
Master teachers might still feel compelled to uphold their values, but what about the other unaffiliated cultivators? What about the Otherworldly Demons?
After a moment of contemplation, Zhang Xuan eventually nodded. "Alright!"
Since he had no direction at the moment, it would not hurt for him to follow this group. At the same time, it would serve to conceal his identity so that he would not draw anyone's suspicion.
