Chapter 179 Obtaining the Weapon



The system handed over the improved version of the Wuyou Pavilion's spiritual magic to Xie Zhou.

Xie Zhou quickly grasped and digested the information, and the difficulties he encountered were easily resolved.

As expected of the system, it always helps the female protagonist solve problems quickly at crucial moments.

With this improved version, all the traps they encountered were eliminated.

Everyone was happy, but also surprised.

Xie Zhou was truly remarkable; in just a short while, he had resolved a problem that so many of them couldn't handle.

In an instant, Xie Zhou was deified in their eyes.

This further convinced everyone that following Xie Zhou was the right thing to do.

Not only could Xie Zhou lead them smoothly all the way, but he also solved the problems of having to use his brain and hands.

Xie Zhou was like an arrow flying ahead; everyone else just needed to follow behind.

Xie Zhou, however, did not appear particularly proud of this; she remained quite low-key.

Xie Zhou didn't say much and led everyone to continue walking forward.

With the improved version of the Worry-Free Pavilion's secret magic provided by the system, everything went smoothly from then on.

The group walked all the way to Teacher Xie Zhou's treasure pavilion.

So many treasures!

"I'd only ever heard about it before, I never thought it was real!"

"Truly remarkable."

Everyone was drawn to the treasures in the pavilion. Xie Zhou, however, didn't seem too reserved, allowing everyone to take and look at them.

Because she knew that although the things that were on the surface were already priceless, the more precious things would be hidden even deeper by the teacher.

Moreover, she herself wasn't very interested in these things.

If she wanted it, she would have reached out and asked the teacher for it while the teacher was still there.

While everyone was distracted by the other treasures, Xie Zhou sneaked around to the back of the treasure pavilion and retrieved the weapon left behind by his teacher.

Xie Zhou carefully put away his weapon, a barely perceptible smile appearing on his face.

Then she went outside and mingled back with everyone as if nothing had happened.

However, everyone's attention was scattered around.

Xie Zhou walked back to their side and was happy to see that no one had noticed her.

He then announced, "Everyone can choose one treasure from here and take it with them."

"Oh? Really?"

Many people don't really believe it.

But it's alright, Xie Zhou keeps his word. She nodded silently.

Several people tried to stuff the treasures they had their eyes on into their pockets, and even glanced at Xie Zhou cautiously a few times.

Some people simply tucked the treasures they had their eyes on into their clothes.

Some carry them with them.

After taking it, they would subconsciously turn around and glance at Xie Zhou.

Xie Zhou watched them casually, without a trace of impatience.

Everyone saw that Xie Zhou did not show any displeasure, and the magnanimity on his face did not seem to be an act.

They were relieved and each picked one they liked.

Some people became greedy and felt that one item was not enough, so they wanted to take more.

Fortunately, those around me gave me a careful reminder.

Although Xie Zhou was very magnanimous this time, he was not someone to be trifled with, as everyone knew.

Therefore, even the greedy ones had some reservations and obediently put the extra portion back where it belonged.

After everyone had made their choices, they were all satisfied and decided to continue following Xie Zhou.

Although the treasure pavilion before us is already so magnificent, it is not the end.

Everyone is hoping that there will be more and better things to come.

The two people walking beside Xie Zhou chatted idly with him.

Xie Zhou knew they were deliberately trying to trick him into talking, but there was no point in hiding it.

After all, we still have a long road ahead, and we can't hide what we'll encounter later.

Xie Zhou simply told them directly:

"My teacher's grave is probably right behind the treasure pavilion."

"Oh, really!"

They seemed quite surprised.

Xie Zhou replied with a forced smile:

"Yes. Back then, our teacher joined forces with the disciples of the Sword Sect and the Worry-Free Pavilion to create a powerful protective barrier around the tomb. It must be located behind the Treasure Pavilion."

"A restriction? What restriction?"

Upon hearing this, everyone immediately tensed up.

However, Xie Zhou didn't actually know much about this restriction.

Although she learned a lot from her teacher, she never fully mastered all of her teacher's skills.

Xie Zhou always felt that what he had learned was only the tip of the iceberg.

What you didn't learn isn't necessarily because the teacher was reluctant to teach it.

It's mostly because there's not enough time.

In short, what Xie Zhou didn't learn included the restrictions his teacher placed on his own grave before his death.

The situation was rather unusual at the time; by the time Xie Zhou wanted to learn, it was already too late.

This includes the symbols and patterns of the prohibition, the vital points of the prohibition, and the methods to break the prohibition.

The teacher didn't tell Xie Zhou a single thing.

I don't know if it will be as easy as in the treasure vault later.

Xie Zhou gradually became serious upon thinking about this.

Others also heard different meanings from the two instances of the tomb and the prohibition.

I have a feeling that something different might happen.

Everyone was on high alert, cautiously following behind Xie Zhou.

At the same time, I'm even more eager to see what kind of restrictions Teacher Xie Zhou would place.

With so many treasures already in the treasure vault, could something even more precious have been buried with her teacher?

The burial goods couldn't be inferior to those in the treasure vault, could they?

Everyone was very curious.

Even if you can't shamelessly take it for yourself, you can still broaden your horizons.

With this in mind, everyone unconsciously sped up considerably.

Xie Zhou, however, felt uneasy, sensing that things weren't that simple.

Who knows how difficult the road ahead will be?

It would be terrible if the teacher never intended for anyone to approach his grave and thus placed a cannibalistic restriction.

Xie Zhou kept thinking about the potential dangers he might encounter, and how to deal with the situation should the group behind him cause a disturbance.

With so many thoughts like this, my walking speed slowed down.

Everyone noticed her unusual behavior and assumed that danger was imminent, so they all shut their mouths.

Everyone became more cautious, and their footsteps became much lighter.

However, Xie Zhou immediately realized that she had already obtained her teacher's weapon from the treasure pavilion.

With this, we might have an extra layer of protection against restrictions.

Xie Zhou gradually calmed down.

When Xie Zhou snapped out of her own thoughts, she found everyone's expressions quite amusing.

They followed Xie Zhou's footsteps quietly, holding their breath, not daring to even breathe loudly.

However, Xie Zhou held back her laughter, afraid that if she laughed out loud, it would ruin the atmosphere.

And being a little nervous is actually quite good.

If things continue to be as chaotic and noisy as they were in the treasure pavilion, like browsing a vegetable market, who knows what kind of trouble we might cause later.

At this pace, it took about two hours to travel.

Everyone finally emerged from the treasure pavilion.
