Chapter 1375 Come with Me

Seeing Master Han's hesitation, Song Chunxue was not in a hurry.

After all, their first meeting was because of Wuyou, which shows that he is a person who is obsessed with weapons. Giving away such a precious weapon would probably be more painful than cutting off a piece of his own flesh.

"Alright, weapons from the Celestial Realm are probably very rare, so it's understandable that you're reluctant to part with them. How about this, the task you gave me isn't particularly..."

"Here, this weapon is indeed from the Immortal Realm, but it's clearly not meant for me." With that, he handed her a heavy triangular pyramid.

It's a triangular pyramid the size of a xiaolongbao (soup dumpling), but surprisingly heavy, with sharp edges and no apparent special features.

Strangely enough, something vaguely flashed through Song Chunxue's mind, and she felt that it was somewhat familiar.

A faint, tingling pain entered her palm, causing her to frown.

"What, do you have a feeling?" Master Han stared at her expectantly. "It's hard to tell what material this thing is made of. I've asked many people, but none of them have a clue. But I found this thing in a crack in the wall of an ancient ruin when I went to the Immortal Realm. It was in an exquisite box. Just opening it took me three unparalleled mechanical masters. It can't be a simple lump of iron."

Song Chunxue shook her head. "I'm sorry to disappoint you, it really isn't anything special, but if you use it as a stone to hit someone, it could probably kill them instantly."

Master Han was somewhat disappointed, but reluctantly agreed, "Then you should practice and try to blow your head off in one strike next time you encounter a troublesome evil cultivator."

"That's too brutal!"

Just as Master Han was about to ridicule her, he heard her say in a serious tone, "If you can smash the heart out with one blow, then that's what you call fighting violence with violence. Smashing the head is easy to scare children."

"..." His lips twitched slightly, as if it wasn't much different.

The goods have been delivered, and he should get back to his own business.

"You stay here and watch; I should go into the palace to take a look."

"Take care, Uncle-Master."

Where no one was watching, the triangular pyramid faintly flashed with fine gilded patterns, only to quickly disappear.

It was as if that was just someone's illusion.

Time passed quickly. On the fourth day, someone came to tell Song Chunxue that she no longer needed to guard the observatory. They gave her some silver and told her to go back on her own.

Just as I was about to go and ask Master Han, I saw Xie Zheng as soon as I stepped outside.

"Master Akita, come with me."

Beneath the red walls and green tiles, he walked ahead in his black, gilded official boots, leading her into the palace.

Heavily guarded on both sides, with numerous eyes and ears, Song Chunxue could only use her divine sense to communicate, asking, "Why did you bring me into the palace?"

We need a Taoist priest to fool us, but we don't have a suitable candidate right now, so we'll have to just grab anyone we can find. And it just so happens that we've run into you here.

Xie Zheng walked ahead with a nonchalant tone, meticulously following each step, like a mannequin.

Conscripting men?

Alright, anyway, Song Chunxue felt that she looked like a strong young man now.

She followed behind him, wearing the man's face, and noticed that his neck was still so thin, showing no signs of gaining weight, and even appearing more emaciated.

You get used to seeing silver hair after a while; at least it's not dry, which means he takes care of his health.

After walking for an unknown amount of time, they arrived at a grand hall. One of the walls inside had collapsed, and they needed to choose an auspicious day to repair it.

I don't understand any of this! I'm not Zhang Chengxuan.

"It's okay, I understand. Just repeat what I say once, and then draw two talismans for warding off evil spirits and protecting the house. It's not complicated, simple and clear, and you can even earn some money."

"..." Fine, it's her fault for not refusing in the first place.

The process was very complicated, but Song Chunxue followed it all.

But she discovered that things had been unsettling in the palace recently; several sections of the palace walls had been damaged, as if some enormous object had struck them.

You won't know until you ask, and what you find out is quite surprising.

It turns out that last night, Master Han captured the second-in-command of the evil cultivators and fought a fierce battle, leaving behind traces.

"Alright, come with me. It's lunchtime, I'll treat Master Akita to lunch."

"No need."

PS: Hehe.
