Chapter 131 Malice Ranking
With a muffled thud, Zhang Zixu landed on the ground.
Intense pain swept over him in an instant.
Zhang Zixu coughed up blood and quickly reviewed the original owner's memories.
·
A man of average to above-average appearance, with top-tier Xuan-grade aptitude and at the fourth level of the Enlightenment Realm. He is 45 years old.
It looks just ordinary no matter how you look at it.
The only redeeming quality about the other party was his background—he was a direct descendant of the Fan family in E'shang City.
However, the entire Fan family doesn't have much of a role in the story. They are only mentioned occasionally when they experience certain major events. They are on the fringes of the various factions.
However, it's impossible for the plot to describe all the characters in great detail. Those who are mentioned briefly to indicate their existence but have almost no specific details are easier to develop.
The inconspicuousness of this identity also makes it convenient to act.
Furthermore, the original owner's personality wasn't strange or particularly special, making her relatively easy to impersonate...
The original owner's interpersonal relationships were also ordinary.
Aside from being a direct relative of the fifth branch of the Fan family, he had entered the Golden Wing Sect, a sixth-level sect, and was a rather outstanding inner disciple, but he had not yet formally become a disciple and did not have many familiar people around him.
Because he entered the sect early on, and his family's level was comparable to the sect's, he often traveled between the two factions, and he didn't have any close relationships with either side. Moreover, in order to improve his strength, he wanted to find a wealthy female cultivator as his Daoist partner in the future, so he did not follow the example of other male members of his generation who took wives and concubines, but focused solely on improving his strength.
Therefore, there was no one even in the backyard, let alone anyone who knew any of his habits or details.
·
After getting the gist of it, Zhang Zixu first frowned, then breathed a sigh of relief.
The qualifications are lacking, but other aspects are quite good.
It's much better than he feared.
It seems he's quite lucky.
·
Once Zhang Zixu relaxed, he devoted more attention to himself.
The original owner of this body was only passing through here for training, and the reason for falling off the cliff was that he was being chased by wild beasts and had no way forward, so he had to jump off the cliff to escape.
With the physical abilities of someone at the Enlightenment Realm, jumping down wouldn't normally cause any major problems. Besides, the creatures chasing them weren't flying beasts, so they wouldn't jump after them.
However, the original owner had already suffered many injuries, and after jumping off the cliff, he was suddenly possessed and unable to use his Xuan power to protect himself. As a result, Zhang Zixu himself fell down and relied entirely on his physical strength to resist the impact, thus suffering serious injuries.
Once the tension in your heart is released, the pain that was previously forced out will naturally become more pronounced.
·
Zhang Zixu exhaled again, hissing in pain a few times, and began to summon the system.
·
After entering various worlds, each player will be accompanied by a smaller system that splits off from the main system. The initial functions of each system are similar, but each player develops it in a different direction, puts in different amounts of effort, and ultimately achieves different results.
Their main goal is to seize the world's essence by taking over the destiny and replacing the chosen one. Therefore, the most powerful system for this purpose is not the fancy and terrifying cheat codes, but the one that allows you to build relationships with characters, win them over, and increase their favorability... and then directly take over their destiny value.
For example, if the person being pursued has a 60% favorability rating towards the person pursuing them, it's equivalent to the person being pursued being willing to give up 60 points of luck to the person pursuing them.
The quantitative standards for luck value are all determined by the system.
But the most terrifying thing is that when the favorability reaches 100%, the luck value of the person being attacked will be completely taken away. At that time, the person being attacked cannot turn the tables, all their luck will belong to the attacker, and they will not even have the possibility of taking revenge on the attacker.
Of course, this also falls into the category of seeking fortune in danger.
In higher-level worlds, if a player is too greedy and manages to seduce multiple outstanding characters, creating chaotic situations, they will often fail and be targeted by those powerful figures.
Players who have accumulated a lot of points and completed most of the tasks are fine. As long as their points are reduced to zero and they summon the main system, the main system will step in to rescue them.
If you don't have enough points or your task progress is stuck...
Then they would most likely be unable to escape and fall into the hands of those powerful individuals.
The lightest fate for a conqueror who humiliates the strong is a quick and painless death.
After all, while strategies can gain favor with powerful individuals, they won't diminish their intelligence.
The more powerful a world is, the harder it is to fool those who possess great fortune; those who have already become powerful are even more perceptive.
However, if a strategist who truly wins the hearts of these powerful figures discovers that the strategist has not given their heart before the powerful figures have reached 100% favorability... it will lead to very serious consequences.
Therefore, those who possess this kind of system are also the ones who die the fastest.
Currently, only one advanced strategist can still master this system.
They are quite difficult to deal with, and are Zhang Zixu's biggest competitor on this trip.
Zhang Zixu didn't know what kind of identity the other party had taken, so he could only wait and see.
However, in his opinion, that guy might not have much of an advantage in this world, and his starting line was about the same as his.
This world is terrifying; the main system spent a lot of time and effort to send him in...
·
Thinking about his next plan, Zhang Zixu tried to summon the system again after the first attempt failed.
After arriving in another world, it takes a while for the system to activate.
·
Zhang Zixu's system is the Divine Healer System.
No matter what world you enter, the system can immediately adapt to the medical practices of that world and begin to continuously issue tasks to upgrade itself.
As he completes the mission, he can also obtain some scattered luck to improve himself and strengthen the system.
Besides his own efforts to gain favor, Zhang Zixu's system abilities were also one of the reasons why he was able to gain the trust of many characters in the story.
In a safe world, Zhang Zixu could become a doctor connected to the storyline thanks to the system.
Doctors may not have many scenes, but they are absolutely indispensable. Characters in the plot often have health problems, making them the easiest to gain the trust of doctors and become friends with them—after all, who wouldn't want a doctor friend who is always there for them?
In unsafe worlds, such as fantasy, cultivation, magic, and martial arts genres, injuries to characters are commonplace.
If you have a friend who is skilled in medicine, and they save your life from time to time, and they are also very loyal...
They will also usually confide in each other.
Of course, the system will be relatively weak when it first enters the world, and can only use the most basic functions. However, the storage capacity is always available, so the player can store some necessary items.
The quantity cannot be too large.
What Zhang Zixu stored were various kinds of medicines, categorized by type.
Since this is now a fantasy world, he wants to retrieve the medicines he previously stored in the same fantasy world from the system.
In this way, while it may not be a perfect solution, it can at least be used.
·
Zhang Zixu's second attempt to summon the system failed, followed by the third, the fourth...
After trying more than ten times, he still couldn't summon anything!
Zhang Zixu's face turned ashen.
At that moment, he finally realized the problem.
Zhang Zixu began searching within the primordial spirit—after he possessed another body, his divine soul could directly simulate the form of the primordial spirit.
There was nothing there.
The system was supposed to enter the world along with his soul!
Why isn't it there?
Zhang Zixu tried hard to recall what had happened to the system, but unfortunately, he still couldn't find the answer.
Logically, the main system's energy should have accompanied him in, and both he and the system should have been under the protection of the main system. How could it be that he entered but the system disappeared?
Could it be that when the main system entered, it discovered that sending its system in along with it would cause the world's consciousness to reject it?
Zhang Zixu was completely baffled.
After searching diligently for a while, Zhang Zixu finally noticed something was amiss.
Deep within his primordial soul, there is a mark that exudes the aura of the main system.
Zhang Zixu touched it slightly.
At that moment, he understood that it was indeed because the system was too conspicuous that it was temporarily kept by the main system.
Therefore, in this world, Zhang Zixu can no longer take advantage of the system's convenience and can only rely on his personal abilities.
Once the mission is completed and the mark is activated, the main system can still take him with it.
That's fine.
Zhang Zixu felt a sense of schadenfreude.
Among all the advanced players, he wasn't too reliant on the system, but the one who relied on affection was different. Without the system's assistance, his advantages were completely gone.
Hiss—
Zhang Zixu had just gotten excited when he aggravated his wound.
He realized that healing didn't necessarily require the medicine from his divine healer system; he could simply search through the original owner's storage pouch.
Since we're out here to train, we'll definitely bring some medicine. The original owner remembers using some, but doesn't recall if there's any left.
Hopefully it hasn't been used up yet...
Zhang Zixu opened the bag of mustard seeds.
The healing pills have run out, but some rare medicinal herbs with healing properties are still left.
Zhang Zixu didn't care, picked up a plant, and chewed it raw.
The medicine from the same world was indeed the right treatment.
A warm current swept through his throat and his whole body. In just a few breaths, Zhang Zixu's injuries were completely healed!
Everything is perfect.
Zhang Zixu stood up and straightened his clothes.
Leave immediately and rent a training room nearby to adapt to this body and its corresponding abilities.
Then we can proceed with other plans.
From this moment on, Zhang Zixu is no longer Zhang Zixu.
His name is Fan Zhongyang.
A young master from a prominent family who is accustomed to going out and gaining experience, but also possesses a certain air of refinement.
Zhang Zixu—no, Fan Zhongyang—adjusted his expression and changed his walking posture a few times.
That's about it.
Fan Zhongyang took out a level-three flying boat and jumped onto it.
This place is quite far from E'shang City, but once he gets used to it, he should go home and visit...
·
Let's go back to the present.
In the ancient city.
After playing with Wu Shaogan on her back for a long time, Zhong Cai exhausted all her Xuan power!
Wu Shaogan simply turned over and played around with Zhong Cai on his back.
After they had both finished arguing, the two of them, panting, rolled into the bed and snuggled together intimately.
Both of them were holding a mirror.
It's called a key, but it's actually quite similar to the doppelganger from that day.
Because this thing has a communication function, the two people look at each other in the mirror, and talk and project images from time to time, having a lot of fun.
As they played around, the two discovered even more uses for it.
It turns out that in addition to its own communication and transmission functions, this small mirror can also be connected to the Sky Mirror and directly use some of the Sky Mirror's functions.
For example, search engines and ranking systems.
Zhong Cai leaned closer to Wu Shaogan and rubbed her head against his chest.
Wu Shaogan ruffled Zhong Cai's hair and said with a smile, "What do you want to play?"
Zhong Cai said with a grin, "Let's take a look at our malice rankings."
Wu Shaogan raised an eyebrow, but had no objection.
Sensing the two people's thoughts, the small mirror emitted a faint white light, as if it were organizing and summarizing.
Zhong Cai and Wu Shaogan waited patiently.
It's normal for the ranking to be a bit slow at the beginning. The speed should be much faster the next time you open this malicious ranking.
After about the time it takes to drink a cup of tea, the white light on both mirrors disappeared.
At the same time, something resembling a scroll was projected onto the mirror, unfolding from top to bottom.
Interestingly, probably because each of them had a small mirror, the scrolls on their mirrors were different.
The top of Zhong Cai's nameplate reads: Belongs to Lord Zhong.
Wu Shaogan's is "belonging to Lord Wu".
The two looked at each other, both finding it quite novel.
Then, they moved closer together, looked at each other, and then at their own.
They always looked at the one with the highest malice value first.
But when the two of them saw it clearly, they both showed strange expressions.
Zhong Cai couldn't help but say, "I don't recognize this one either."
Wu Shaogan, however, remained calm: "A-Cai didn't."
·
There are very few names on either scroll.
Let's start with Zhong Cai's.
The message indicated that anyone with a malice value of 60 or higher would have a red name, but there were no red names on Zhong Cai's scroll.
When Wu Shaogan said "no," that's what he meant.
However, there was one person whose malice value did not reach sixty, and that was Luo Zixiao.
...This isn't surprising, is it?
Luo Zixiao was beaten so badly because of what Zhong Cai and Wu Shao did; it would be strange if he didn't have malicious intent.
However, in the end, he was still a Spirit Transformation Realm expert. Although he disliked the two juniors very much, he was not so much as to have murderous intent.
His malice towards Zhong Cai is 20.
In short, it's simply a matter of feeling somewhat disgusted.
·
Zhong Cai couldn't help but say, "Professor Luo's temper is alright."
Wu Shao chuckled dryly: "There is some resentment, but I suppose there's more annoyance than anything else."
·
Luo Zixiao may have lost face, but they were all from the same sect, and he was the one who was in the wrong first.
If we're really talking about malice, he'd probably dislike Sun Zhangtian, the disciple who caused him trouble, even more.
Besides, given Luo Zixiao's cultivation level, he would likely direct most of his anger at Sang Yunchu and Jiang Chongguang.
While Zhong Cai and Wu Shaogan, these two junior disciples, were indeed the catalyst, they were also outstanding students of Canglong Academy with a bright and promising future. No matter how much he disliked them, he did not actually harbor any murderous intent.
·
As if to verify the two's words, Luo Zixiao's malice value on Wu Shaogan's scroll was 25.
The extra "five" likely refers to the incident where Wu Shaogan refused to become his disciple.
·
Zhong Cai flipped the mirror over, trying to flip the scroll inside as well.
...It seems that they followed his wishes, and the scroll really did flip.
But no matter how many times it was flipped, no more names appeared on the scroll.
There is only one name, Luo Zixiao.
·
Zhong Cai muttered, "I'm not that awesome, am I? Only one person hates me?" He immediately shook his head and said with great certainty, "Let's not talk about others. Even Sun Zhangtian couldn't possibly not hate me! Master Sang is my master. He must know that I complained, which led to his miserable fate!"
Wu Shaogan nodded slightly: "He should hate me too, and I don't have his name here." He pondered and added, "It seems that people who pose no threat to us are not included, but Sun Zhangtian has a top-grade aptitude, so it's impossible that he poses no threat at all."
Zhong Cai nodded in agreement.
·
With diligent cultivation, someone with Heavenly Qualities has the potential to reach the Heavenly Realm. Even if Luo Zixiao no longer values Sun Zhangtian, he is still a disciple of the Azure Dragon Sect, and his actions have not yet reached the point where he must be expelled from the sect—besides, his master is already severely punishing him.
Even if Sun Zhangtian is forced to remain dormant for decades or centuries, his potential will still remain.
It's not that there's absolutely no threat.
After all, no matter how strong Zhong Cai and Wu Shaogan's defenses are now, they are not invincible.
Moreover, Sun Zhangtian is very likely a transmigrator who knows the plot. Even though the plot has changed a lot, the overall major events should still exist, which can bring many benefits to Sun Zhangtian.
Based on this alone, the threat should be even greater.
·
Zhong Cai and Wu Shaogan exchanged a glance, both puzzled.
Wu Shaogan speculated, "Could it be that something happened to Sun Zhangtian while he was in solitary confinement...?"
Zhong Cai hesitated and said, "Surely the people on Xiaoyao Peak wouldn't torture him like that? After all, they're disciples from the same peak."
Although both of them were intelligent, they couldn't find the reason for the time being.
After a short silence.
Zhong Cai waved his hand and said cheerfully, "Forget it! Who cares what happened to him! We don't need to have Taoist soldiers guarding the gate anymore. Anyway, if this guy is threatened, it will show up on the mirror. If it doesn't show up on the mirror, who cares what happens?"
Wu Shaogan thought for a moment and then smiled, "Ah Cai is carefree, that makes sense!"
Zhong Cai beamed: "That's right!"
The two then ignored Sun Zhangtian's matter and turned to look at the malice list.
·
Both lists are actually quite empty.
Zhong Cai's side has only one name, while Wu Shaogan's side has one more.
Besides Luo Zixiao, there is another person with a red name.
As Zhong Cai said, the two of them didn't know each other.
The person in red is: Fan Zhongyang.
·
Zhong Cai tried hard to remember: "Who exactly is this person?"
Wu Shaogan couldn't think of anything either, and could only say, "Perhaps... someone like Wu Shao'an?"
Zhong Cai was taken aback, then immediately said, "That's possible!"
·
Zhong Cai will not forget Wu Shao'an.
This guy did a lot of awful things because of his jealousy. He was a bad person who had done many bad things and was the culprit who ruined the little brat.
The person is long gone.
If Fan Zhongyang is really a similar type of person to Wu Shaoan, then even if Wu Shaoan has never provoked him, he might still blame Wu Shaoan for something he couldn't understand.
·
Zhong Cai frowned and said with some concern, "The key is that this guy is a threat."
Wu Shaogan nodded.
·
There are certainly many people who truly hate them so much that they want to kill them.
There are thousands of kinds of people in the world, and there are always a few that are like rats in the gutter.
Both Master Sang and Master Jiang were excellent masters, and naturally many people wanted to become their disciples. However, the two masters only accepted the two of them as their disciples.
Normal disciples might feel resentful if they don't meet the standards, but most of them won't have any malicious intent. However, those few scoundrels, even if they have no chance at all, will feel that Zhong Cai and Wu Shaogan have taken advantage of them and want them dead.
Besides, there may be other scoundrels like Wu Shao'an.
The families of Wu Shaogan's two enemies are the ones most likely to harbor deep hatred for the two.
Both the Dai and Meng families had a large number of powerful members killed by Wu Shaogan, causing their status to plummet. Even though some of their family members knew that their families were at fault first, they still hated Wu Shaogan.
This is normal.
There's also the Wu family...
In the past, the Wu family would not have been in any trouble, but now the Wu family has declined, and the clansmen are having a hard time. Wu Shaogan, however, is aloof and will not lend a helping hand to the Wu family.
Most clansmen are probably more worried about Wu Shaogan retaliating against the Wu family, but as time goes on and the repression becomes more intense, it's inevitable that a few will develop hatred.
As for the fact that Wu Shaogan was wronged by the Wu family... isn't he still alive and doing quite well?
·
But no matter which company it is, or even those shady characters, their potential is far less than that of Wu Shaogan.
Even if they fought to the death and had countless fortuitous encounters, they could not catch up with Wu Shaogan's rate of improvement, so they would not pose any threat and it would not be worth writing their names on the malice list.
Therefore, "Fan Zhongyang" is very special.
·
Zhong Cai pondered, "Old Wu, who do you think this person is?"
Wu Shaogan thought about it and made a guess.
As Zhong Cai spoke, she began to speculate: "Do you think... it could also be a transmigration story?"
Wu Shaogan somewhat agreed.
Zhong Cai quickly added, "Old Wu, but all those transmigrators we met before were terrified of you. Most of them didn't even try to deal with you; they all thought you were someone to be trifled with..."
They've encountered so many transmigrators in just a few years, so there must be more than just those in the world. Who knows how many more are hidden in some corner of the world that they don't even know about!
There aren't many names on the current malice list, which only shows that none of the transmigrators intended to confront Old Wu head-on—either they were too scared to have any killing intent, or they were full of malice but posed no threat whatsoever. However, since transmigrators know the plot, there should be very few who are completely unable to pose a threat.
Wu Shaogan pondered, "Whether it is or not, I'll remember it for now."
Zhong Cai nodded, then looked at the name again and couldn't help but complain, "The mirror is quite functional, but the details are still lacking. Now that we have the malicious list and the name, there are still many people with the same name in the world, so it's still quite difficult to find one."
Wu Shaogan pondered cautiously for a moment, then smiled and comforted me, "It's alright. Since they hate me, they will inevitably scheme against me. Once they decide to scheme against me, their malice will be boiling over. I'll look in the mirror more often. The more malice there is, the more it's related to me. The mirror will give me several possible interpretations, and I can then filter them out."
Zhong Cai thought about it and agreed.
However, this guy is still a bit annoying, so it would be better to find him sooner if there's a chance.
Thinking of this, Zhong Cai couldn't help but say, "This guy's surname is Fan. I wonder if he's related to Brother Fan."
—Fan Jiming is a member of the Fan family. Fan Zhongyang also has the surname Fan. Could he also be a member of the Fan family?
Wu Shao chuckled dryly, "There are too many cultivators in the world with the surname Fan."
Zhong Cai knew this principle, but he just said it casually.
The two of them couldn't possibly ask Fan Jiming if he knew someone named Fan Zhongyang, since they had never had any dealings with anyone named "Fan Zhongyang," and asking would be too abrupt; they would have to find an excuse.
Too many excuses leave too many traces; there's no need for that.
Moreover, even if Fan Jiming really knew Fan Zhongyang, it might not be the same Fan Zhongyang...
·
After reviewing the list of malicious comments, the two felt quite relieved.
From now on, all we need to do is guard against this guy named "Fan Zhongyang" who suddenly appears.
The rest is not important.
·
Now that the matter was over, Wu Shaogan casually stroked the mirror while looking at Zhong Cai with tender eyes.
Zhong Cai was casually fiddling with the mirror.
Suddenly, Wu Shaogan thought of something and smiled as he reminded her, "A-Cai, perhaps we can look for what you need."
Zhong Cai was taken aback.
He also remembered that he was still missing a water-attribute secret technique and a missing auxiliary cultivation method!
Zhong Cai looked at the mirror again.
Wu Shao chuckled dryly, "Shall we ask?"
Zhong Cai's eyes shone brightly.
With a mirror, we should be able to find traces of the cultivation technique.
Regarding the secret technique... perhaps he can not only find a suitable one, but also see several suitable ones, and then choose the most suitable one that is relatively easy to obtain!
More importantly, if everything goes smoothly, the bounty can be removed!
Although they were generous with rewards to get the secret technique, if they could really save that money... why not?
The expenses will only increase in the future!
·
A smile quickly spread across Zhong Cai's face.
Wu Shaogan found his appearance quite adorable and gently pinched him a few times.
Zhong Cai snorted, but didn't turn her face away.
Wu Shaogan knew when to stop, so he simply stretched out his arm and pulled Zhong Cai into his embrace.
Zhong Cai looked up at him, her eyebrows raised.
Wu Shaogan smiled and said, "I'm afraid A Cai will get too excited."
Zhong Cai couldn't help but laugh, leaning back comfortably and scoffing, "What kind of excuse are you making up?"
Wu Shaogan laughed too: "If I don't make up an excuse, A-Cai will say that I'm not serious about treasure hunting."
Zhong Cai was overjoyed and almost rolled out laughing.
Fortunately, Wu Shaogan hugged him even tighter.
·
After they had finished arguing, the two turned their attention back to the mirror.
Wu Shaogan first removed his own side.
Zhong Cai touched the mirror in her hand.
The two communicated their thoughts.
First, we need to find the subsequent chapters of the "Five Elements and Five Stars Classic".
Zhong Cai muttered to himself, hoping that this chapter wouldn't fall into the hands of some powerful force that was difficult to trade with; it would be best if it were just a random piece from outside...
If it were individual items, he and Lao Wu could still try to get them themselves; with so many Dao soldiers, sneaking off should be feasible.
But if it's the former, then he'll have no choice but to ask his master for help.
His master would definitely help him, but this disciple still wanted to save his master as much trouble as possible...
·
With Zhong Cai and Wu Shaogan focusing their profound energy and intense intentions, golden light emanated from the mirror, and the light trembled continuously, exhibiting strong and chaotic fluctuations in energy.
This rapid fluctuation stopped abruptly when it reached a certain frequency!
The next moment, the chaotic atmosphere disappeared.
The trembling light stopped, and the golden radiance dissipated from the surface of the mirror like flowing water.
What appeared on the mirror was a very strange background.
It seems to be a very ancient cave.
A red spot of light appeared in front of a skeleton.
Zhong Cai murmured, "Is that where the light spot is where the technique is located?"
Wu Shaogan observed carefully and said, "There is a formation there. It should open up once a certain standard is met, revealing A Cai's martial arts technique."
Zhong Cai also agreed with her husband Wu's deduction.
Because both of them had their own guesses, the mirror changed again.
A faint light burst forth from the mirror and then projected onto the front of the two people.
It is a phantom, but also a very clear image.
·
Zhong Cai was stunned for a moment: "It's like a 3D map, but even more flexible."
Wu Shaogan nodded.
The "3D map" seemed to want the two to know how easy it was to use, so it rapidly enlarged and shrunk as if giving instructions, and occasionally zoomed in on certain local areas so that the two could see the finer details in those places.
Zhong Cai and Wu Shaogan were both quite satisfied.
They can also control the size of the images with their minds and view them at will.
·
The image begins by revealing the entire cave, then zooms in to the surrounding area, and continues zooming in further, until it encompasses the entire mountain range, dense forest, and swamp...
Finally, the images continued to extend and spread, revealing the city closest to the mountains.
In the magnified details, the plaque on the city gate can be clearly seen.
It reads: Nine-Bend City.
·
Zhong Cai couldn't help but ask, "Nine-Bend City...where is that?"
Wu Shaogan pondered for a moment, then shook his head and said, "Never heard of it."
The two had already looked at the map of all fifteen states. They wouldn't say they remembered every single place perfectly, but they weren't completely unfamiliar with them either.
Zhong Cai said doubtfully, "It should be from another state."
Wu Shaogan said helplessly, "I'm afraid we really have to ask our master." He paused, "Although we can check the Myriad Classics Tower first, I glimpsed the terrifying aura of the savage beasts in that mountain range before."
Zhong Cai's lips twitched slightly: "I recognized it too, it's at least a seventh-tier rare beast."
Therefore, no matter where Jiuqu City is, the nearby mountain range is not something Zhong Cai and Wu Shaogan can enter at will. Even if they find out the exact location in the Wandian Tower, they cannot go there immediately.
So even though they didn't want to trouble their master, they still had no choice but to tell him.
Zhong Cai hesitated and asked, "How should we tell our master?"
How are they going to tell their master all these details?
Wu Shaogan pondered, "Perhaps, there's no need to mention it further."
Zhong Cai looked at Wu Shaogan.
Wu Shaogan said, “Cultivators all have secrets. In my opinion, given the nature of our masters, they will only care about our safety, but they will not delve into the details and insist that we explain everything.”
Zhong Cai suddenly realized.
Yes! Master would never ask so many questions!
All they need to say is that it's a confirmed message.
·
The two discussed the matter of the cultivation method, and then took out Wu Shaogan's mirror to begin searching for information related to the secret techniques.
Just as the two had anticipated, there were relatively more ways to obtain the secret techniques.
Based on their selection process, anything that was difficult to obtain was eliminated.
There are still five or six ways to find the remaining water-attribute meteor hammer technique.
Zhong Cai smiled and said, "Old Wu! You can try all of these methods!"
Wu Shaogan smiled and said, "We can save this money."
Zhong Cai was even happier: "Yes!"
·
Having achieved their desired outcome, the two quickly got up.
Without further ado, everyone go find your master!
·
Meijiashan Mountains.
Zhong Cai rushed into the mansion, still shouting loudly:
"Master, are you there?"
"Master, I've come to find you! I need to talk to you about something!"
"Master, if you're here, just say something!"
Just then, a soft laugh echoed from deep within the mansion.
At the same time, a very faint but clear voice reached Zhong Cai's ears.
"squeak."
Zhong Cai, who was running: "..."
The voice clearly belonged to his master.
How should I put it...
Even though Master is so old, he still loves to joke around.
Just then, a soft laugh rang out again.
At the same time, his master said, "What are you still playing with, Cai'er? Come to the alchemy room."
Zhong Cai shook her head and immediately continued running in that direction.
He knew that his master must be in the alchemy room!
·
Not long after, Zhong Cai ran to the door of a large house.
Inside the room sat a young man dressed in plain clothes, sitting cross-legged in front of a tall alchemy furnace.
The young man's voice was soft, with a hint of amusement: "Cai'er, aren't you afraid of disturbing your master's alchemy by speaking so loudly?"
Zhong Cai walked over decisively and sat down next to her master, resting her chin on her hand and saying, "Master won't be disturbed!"
The young man turned his head and patted Zhong Cai's head.
Zhong Cai let him take pictures.
·
That is indeed the case.
When Zhong Cai first came over, she was very careful. She was always worried that she would disturb her master's alchemy, and she was reluctant to make any big commotion.
As he gradually became more familiar with his master, he realized that his master was not afraid of being disturbed at all—no matter how loud the sound was, it had no effect on him.
I really want to influence my master...
That would have meant several Spirit Transformation cultivators fighting in the courtyard, cutting the mansion in two, with their power surging everywhere...
Even so, they would still be completely blocked by the tight array surrounding the alchemy room. Only after the array was completely destroyed would there be any chance of disturbing the master.
Why would a nobody like Zhong Cai worry about affecting a half-step Dan Emperor?
You're overthinking it!
·
Sang Yunchu liked his youngest disciple very much, but he also understood that his disciple was usually too busy being intimate with his Daoist partner to think about his master.
Whenever a junior disciple comes over, he always brings something with him.
