C83 (1/2)
Lu Yuan was tall and thin, and his appearance was rather ordinary. His eyes flickered with a brilliant light, giving people the feeling that he was extremely powerful. But last time in the Sky Sect, the Mountain God School didn't bring him out. Was he afraid of exposing something?
Lu Yuan definitely wasn't just at the peak of the Spirit Dan realm!
Along the way, besides me, there was also a disciple from the Mountain God Sect named Ceng Hua Tian. In the Mountain God Sect, Ceng Hua Tian was known for his craftiness and cunning and didn't know Zhan Feng very well, but his strength wasn't that great.
The distance between the Mountain God School and the Sky Sect would take at least five days. During these five days, Lu Yuan didn't say a single word. On the other hand, Zeng Huantian and I couldn't help but start chatting.
Because Zhan Feng and Zeng Hua Tian weren't very familiar with each other, they only greeted each other as a token of greeting. This time around, there was quite a bit of topic to talk about.
”You said so many offerings, but the three of us just left empty-handed. Where did you put them?”
”Hehe, did you see the ring on second senior brother's finger?”
”I saw it, so what?”
In our world of cultivation, those are called storage rings, also known as space rings. However, we cultivators generally call them heaven and earth rings when we like them, meaning that there's a universe within them. Don't look at this small ring, it has a special world within it!
After hearing him say so, he pretended to be extremely surprised. Zeng Huantian was both surprised and curious, and was quite satisfied, so he paused for a moment before slowly opening his mouth and continuing, ”The Buddha has a treasure trove of mustard seeds, and the mustard seeds hold the Sumeru. In the Buddhist world, the Universe Ring is also known as a spatial ring, and in fact, this Universe Ring was first created by the Buddha, but when it became more practical, it eventually spread throughout the entire cultivation world. However, there aren't many people who know how to use spatial formations, and most of them are from large sects. Thus, we, a small and poor sect, would be very surprised if we could obtain one or two of them.
”So that's how it is. Brother Ceng is truly knowledgeable!” My face was full of smiles as I glanced at the ring on my hand. This is a genuine Universe Ring.
”Haha, I'm flattered. I'm just curious about a lot of things and have read a lot of ancient books.”
Carefully glancing at Lu Yuan, I whispered, ”Then does Brother Ceng know why second senior brother hasn't improved at all in the past few decades?”
”Shh!” ”You don't want to live anymore!?” Zeng Huatian quickly shut his mouth and scolded. How dare you discuss the matter of second senior brother! ”
”Why not?”
”Second Senior Brother hates it when others talk about him. After so many years, have you ever heard anything about him?”
”No!”
”Then that's it. Second senior brother has a secret. You'd better not ask him anything.”
”Fine.”
Lu Yuan had a secret? It seemed like the Mountain God School's water wasn't shallow either!
”Eh, Brother Ceng, do you know anything about the White Jade Sect and the sword sect?”
In Zhan Feng's memory, more than a year ago, the sword faction and the White Jade Gate almost fought, but no one knew the reason. In Zhan Feng's memory, more than a year ago, the sword faction and the White Jade Gate almost fought, but no one knew the reason.
”Hehe, that's a romantic affair.”
”A romantic affair?”
”Yeah, it took me a lot of effort to find out about this.”
Seeing how Zeng Huantian wanted to say something but hesitated, I fiercely looked down on him in my heart, but I couldn't help but smile and say in a low voice, ”I still have a few more Spirit Dans. Although they aren't rare, they are still far more powerful than any Spirit Pill. If brother Ceng doesn't mind, I will exchange three of them for this inside information. I hope brother Ceng knows what to say!”
Upon hearing this, the corner of Zeng Huantian's mouth split open as he said, ”Sure, sure. I just don't know. This pill …”
I reached my hand into my bosom and fished out three Spirit Dans from the Universe Ring. These Spirit Dans were even given to me by Baiyu Sect's Pu Xuan.
He put it in front of his nose and sniffed it, then said with a serious expression: ”At that time, there was a disciple in the White Jade Sect called Chen Ziming who went with the prized disciple Lan Yun of the Sword Summit to propose marriage. After some discussion, both parties agreed to it, but who would have known that after returning, the disciple of the White Jade Sect would send someone to inform the Sword Peak that Chen Ziming had disappeared, and the wedding would be cancelled! You said that this was clearly a slap to the sword faction. Moreover, Lan Yun had covered his head with a veil and was wearing a red dress, but now he had received this news. This sort of shame and anger could be imagined! The sword faction went over to ask for an explanation, but was coldly looked at by the White Jade Sect, so they started fighting. However, luckily no one died, in the end, the White Jade Sect Leader came out and gave some compensation to the sword faction, which was why the sword faction stopped. ”
”Then, then what about Lan Yun?” I felt a little sad, but I tried not to show it.
”Lan Yun? I heard he was very sad and almost committed suicide, but he didn't die. ”
”Suicide!” My heart trembled. It seemed that I had hurt her too much. ”Then, what about her now?”
”Now? I'm not sure either. If you want to know, you can ask Eldest Brother! ”
”Eldest Brother, Li Xiang?” You say he knows? ”
”Of course, this isn't a secret …” Zeng Hua Tian suddenly stopped, realizing that he had leaked the information.
”You said that this isn't a secret?”
Seeing my staring eyes, Zeng Huantian awkwardly laughed: ”Brother Zhan, hehe, this matter isn't a secret in the sword faction, but as long as you have one or two friends in the sword faction, wanting to know about this matter isn't difficult. Right now, in these few sects, although there aren't many people who know about it, there are still quite a few, and you also know that the relationship between my Mountain God Sect and the sword faction isn't as cold as it seems.”
”Heng, you lied to me for three Spirit Dans, and you still have the nerve to do that!” ”How about this, I don't need you to return it to me. Help me ask around and find out how Lan Yun is doing now.”
”Why do you care so much about her?”
I blushed. ”I won't hide it from brother Ceng. Last time I went to the Sky Sect, I met Lan Yun. I really like her …”
”Hahaha, so that's how it is. Good, for the sake of your brother's happiness, let me take care of you!”
Along the way, Hua Tian and I chatted quite a bit. This person is very talkative, and he is indeed knowledgeable. He knows more about astronomical geography, formations and restrictions than me. According to him, the reason why it was hard to enter the country was not because one was tens of millions of miles away, but because there was a formation around the country that contained the entirety of the country. According to him, the reason why it was hard to enter the country was not because one was tens of millions of kilometers away, but because there was a formation around the country that included the entire country.
Time passed quickly as they chatted and laughed. In the blink of an eye, they had arrived in front of the Sky Sect.
”Shut up!”
