C62 (1/2)

Taking out the item, Gu Chen looked at it and said, ”This token is the identity token of the Immortal South Region Sect. As long as you destroy it, the other items will naturally belong to Brother Zi Ming.”

I picked up the token and looked at it. It was just a piece of wood, but there were some fluctuations of Spiritual Energy. It should be the ability to confirm one's identity. With a flick of my finger, the token disintegrated into pieces and scattered on the ground.

He took a look at the storage ring. Its design was extremely ordinary, so he shouldn't be able to tell that it belonged to the Southern Tang Immortal Sect. Gu Chen clearly saw my awkwardness, he smiled and said, ”Brother Zi Ming is in a difficult situation, could this ring be recognized by the Southern Wasteland Immortal Sect?”

I nodded my head, ”Indeed, I won't hide the truth from you, Brother Gu. I come from a small sect, so I have never seen such a convenient item like the Universe Ring. That's why I feel it is such a pity to give it up.”

”Brother Zi Ming, there's no need to make things difficult for us. Although there aren't many rings, they're still quite ordinary. They can be sold in ordinary trading centers, so you can relax and use them.”

I nodded before putting it on my left pinky and turning to look at the few pieces of broken stone.

”This is a spirit stone, and it contains spirit energy. Outside, it is used for cultivation, pill refining, and trading. Just take it, Brother Zi Ming. When there's a chance in the future, it will naturally be useful.”

It was as if this was the first time a countryside boy had seen something new in the city. Gu Chen saw through my distress and quickly changed the topic, ”Brother Zi Ming, you are very strong, how about you let me recommend you to me after I complete my mission and join my Empyrean Terminus Sect?”

I shook my head. ”Thank you, Brother Gu, for your good intentions. However, I still have some private matters that I must take care of. I'll take over after I'm done here.” I wonder, what is Brother Gu's mission? ”

”This...”

”If Brother Gu is in a difficult situation, there's no need to tell me.”

Gu Chen forced a smile and said, ”It's not that I'm not willing to tell you, but my status is low. I've only received orders to go to the valley and check if there are any differences. I don't know anything else.”

I nodded and pretended to look up to the sky. ”It is already getting late. Brother Gu still has a mission to complete. I won't be bothering you any longer.”

Gu Chen nodded, ”I've been delayed by Zhang Tian for so long, I really should take my leave. Brother Zi Ming, I will never forget the grace of saving my life!” ”See you later!”

”En, until we meet again!”

Looking at the departing figure of Gu Chen, I moved my body and left this place of conflict. I arrived at a remote forest.

Holding Zhang Tong's long sword and my hidden blade in my hand, I became extremely excited, with a thought, both of them disappeared, then instantly reappeared in my hands. After playing with them for a long time, I was satisfied and placed everything I had into my Universe Ring.

With a flick of my finger, Spiritual Energy wrapped around the blood vein. Seeing that the blood vein was still struggling, I thought for a moment before an idea came into my mind.

However, I need to leave a path of retreat for myself. If I annihilate the White Jade Sect and the Sky Sect, these two dogs that belong to the Southern Immortal Sect, no matter what the reason is, their masters will always come looking for trouble with me. And Gu Chen, who happened to appear out of the blue, as a member of the Great Celestial Sect of the Supreme Sects, if nothing unexpected happens, it will be my best safeguard.

After staying in the mortal world for another two days, I considered whether it was time to return, so I returned to the White Jade Gate unhurriedly. As for the Universe Ring in my hand, I had already found a craftsman in the town to change its appearance to that of a normal ring.

Pu Xuan's old face was bright red, his eyes were squinting, and his smile was present all the time. It seemed that he had been feeling extremely comfortable during this period of time. When he saw me return, he did not say anything.

In the midst of my confusion, some of my fellow apprentices told me that Pu Xuan had told the Sect Leader about the increase in my strength and the attitude Shen Tianlan had towards us. When the Sect Leader heard this, he praised us greatly and gave Pu Xuan a few medicinal pellets.

No wonder this old man is so happy, so it turns out that he is relying on me to obtain benefits. This won't do, I'll have to ask for some pills later …

After all, ever since I came here with Chen Ziming's identity, I have never seen him before. I wonder what he looks like, and how high his cultivation is.
