Chapter 1671 - Saint Monk Xumi’s Relic (2/2)
Zhang Ruochen stared at the box. Instead of s.n.a.t.c.hing it back, he said calmly, “Even if you have a strand of hair from Saint Monk Xumi, it doesn’t mean that you know where he died.”
“I am the fairy of the Thousand Star Civilization and will become the leader one day,” Thousand Star Maiden said with disdain. “Why would I lie to you?”
Zhang Ruochen had been lied to multiple times. Even a G.o.d would lie, let alone a fairy.
“The Wind Atrium is an extremely dangerous place in that palace,” Zhang Ruochen said. “I heard that many cultivators died there. Going with you would be a great risk and I might even die in there. I would never take the risk just because of your words, unless…”
“Unless what?” the Thousand Star Maiden asked quickly.
“Unless you give me that hair,” Zhang Ruochen said. “Then I can go with you.”
Unexpectedly, the Thousand Star Maiden agreed quickly.
Zhang Ruochen furrowed his brows, finding it unusual. Even if the Thousand Star Maiden couldn’t see what was strange with the hair, there were so many strong figures in the civilization. Could they not see it either?
Didn’t she agree too quickly?
What Zhang Ruochen didn’t know was that the G.o.d ancestor of the Thousand Star Civilization had told the maiden that if she ever met the Time and s.p.a.ce Descendant, she had to give him the whisker.
“I have another condition,” Zhang Ruochen said. “Before entering the Wind Atrium, I must reach the third step Saint King Realm and 57th level for Spiritual Power. You have to supply the saint fruits and medicine for that.”
“Okay, I agree.”
The Thousand Star Maiden didn’t think this was too much. After all, the Wind Atrium was very dangerous. You had to risk your life. If not for the fact that an elder of her clan was dying soon and needed the divine spring to replenish his longevity, she wouldn’t take the risk either.
As for fruit and medicine that improved cultivation and Spiritual Power, it was even easier for her.
There were many strong figures in the civilization. They picked many fruits and medicine from the inner and outer four yards. The Thousand Star Maiden didn’t have to pick anything herself after entering the G.o.d-Naming Platform. She could just take the fruit and medicine given by other cultivators to improve.
This was why she could walk before Zhang Ruochen and reach the third step Saint King Realm first.
After the Thousand Star Maiden left, Xiang Chunan walked out of the darkness with a strange expression. “Brother Ruochen, are the Mysteries of Truth really as precious as you said?”
“Do you trust me?” Zhang Ruochen asked in return.
“Yes, of course.”
“No matter how precious they are, I will never take a single bit from you,” Zhang Ruochen said.
“I, Xiang Chunan, would never either. Plus, no matter how precious the Mysteries of Truth are, could they be more precious than brotherhood? Brother Ruochen, how about I give all of them to you now?” Xiang Chunan said emotionally. He was afraid that the Mysteries of Truth would get between them.
“No, don’t. If you do that, we won’t be able to be brothers anymore!”
After a pause, Zhang Ruochen grew much more serious. “I have to go to the Wind Atrium. I’m afraid we’ll have to separate for a period.”
“I’m going with you. We’ll go through thick and thin together.” Xiang Chunan patted his broad chest.
Zhang Ruochen shook his head. “My rivalry with the Heaven Field clique has already affected you. This time, I can’t let you take risks, no matter what.”
Xiang Chunan was about to speak, but Zhang Ruochen immediately said, “I’m not letting you go, because I have something more important that I need your help with.”
After handing Mu Lingxi over to Xiang Chunan, Zhang Ruochen entered the Free Trade Yard again.
Of course, he’d turned back into that appearance. He looked to be around 20 years old and wore a cloth robe. He looked very ordinary.
The Free Trade Yard had recovered its peace, but along the way, Zhang Ruochen heard many people discussing the battle that had just happened. They said that he and Xiang Chunan were mysterious monsters with extremely terrifying abilities.
Some guessed that they were the rising stars of Pangu Field, leader of the east.
Others guessed that they were G.o.dly disciples secretly trained by the Truth G.o.dly Palace.
Their guesses weren’t entirely without proof.
Up until now, none of the ten major G.o.dly disciples in the G.o.d-Naming Platform Conference had issued an order to arrest them, so it was clear that some extremely powerful figure had pushed this down.
If the Heaven Field clique suffered a loss but didn’t go after them, then their backgrounds were truly terrifying. It was normal that they guessed Pangu Field and the Truth G.o.dly Palace.
After a while, Zhang Ruochen finally reached the majestic Weapon-Refining Pavilion. He looked up but couldn’t see the top of the pavilion. He could only feel the strong auras coming from inside.
Such a large and tall Weapon-Refining Pavilion was rare and stood up in the Free Trade Yard.
Kaboom!
At the same time, a carriage wrapped in white saint light came from the distance. Eight white peac.o.c.ks pulled the carriage.
There were many small and intricate treasures on the carriage, including Ten-thousand-pattern Saint Weapon windchimes, natural green-patterned gourds, snow gra.s.s, saint jade marrow etc.
As the carriage flew forward, the windchimes swayed, the gourd tapped softly, jade marrow flowed… It was actually interwoven into a moving melody.
There was a beautiful woman inside the carriage. She stood on the head of one white peac.o.c.k and shone with brilliant light. This was the disciple of Fairy Tianchu, Li Hanmiao, once number 19 on the Saints Merits Rank.
