Capítulo 1135: Chapter 1135: International
Jiangli and Xia Xin returned to Jiaoyang Temple around three in the afternoon.
Seeing them back, Fu’er and Master Wu happily ca over, asking about Jiangli and Xia Xin’s outing.
Jiangli lazily yawned and went into the room to rest.
He tossed Xia Xin to Fu’er and Master Wu, leaving them to bother Xia Xin.
Before Xia Xin could react, he was surrounded by Fu’er and Master Wu.
He sighed and could only chat idly with them.
But they hadn’t talked much before Xia Xin’s phone rang.
As he heard the ringtone, Xia Xin felt relieved, quickly took out his phone, and said while standing up, “I’ve got a call, let take it first!”
Fu’er and Master Wu felt a bit taken aback, but since Xia Xin had sothing to handle, they couldn’t say much and felt a bit uneasy.
Holding his phone, Xia Xin walked a bit further away before answering, “Hello?”
Xun Tianhai’s voice ca from the other end, “Xia Xin?”
Xia Xin was a bit surprised, took the phone down to look, and realized it was Xun Tianhai calling.
He hadn’t noticed the caller ID earlier.
Xia Xin put the phone back to his ear and said, “Director Xun, what made you think of calling at this ti?”
Xun Tianhai’s tone contained a bit of confusion, “I was going to ask you that, Xia Xin, are you and the Abbot really busy now? I’ve been ssaging you in private and on the forum, but you didn’t respond, what’s going on?”
Xia Xin: “…Really?”
Xun Tianhai: “…What do you think?”
Keeping the call active, Xia Xin checked the forum and saw there were indeed a few ssages from Xun Tianhai.
While reading them, he awkwardly apologized, “Sorry, Director Xun, the Abbot and I just got back from out of town. When you ssaged us, we were probably on the plane and didn’t notice.”
Xun Tianhai curiously asked, “You went out of town?”
Xia Xin nodded, “A pilgrim over there had so issues, so we went to check it out.”
Xun Tianhai responded with an “Oh,” then said, “Then quickly look at the ssages I sent you, and rember to inform the Abbot.”
Having gone through the information Xun Tianhai sent, Xia Xin finally understood why Xun Tianhai was so anxious, “There’s a Xuann competition?”
Xun Tianhai: “Yeah, it’s every three years, didn’t you know?”
Xia Xin honestly replied, “I really didn’t.”
Xun Tianhai: “…”
Well, that makes sense.
Jiaoyang Temple had been removed from the Xuann registry for so many years; how old is Xia Xin anyway?
He’s probably never heard of the Xuann competition.
Xun Tianhai then explained to Xia Xin, “It’s a tradition from over two hundred years ago, held every three years. The Onmyoji from Sang Country and our Xuann Association from ChinaCountry have a contest to determine a winner. Before the competition, both ChinaCountry and Sang Country present a treasure as the final reward. Regardless of which side wins, the treasures from both countries go to the ultimate victor.”
Moreover, the winning side gets to outshine the other for the next three years, gaining control over so peculiar international tasks and cases.
Xia Xin was surprised and said, “This thing involves international matters?”
Xun Tianhai said, “You’ve really been out of the Xuann registry for too long. Nowadays, there are all sorts of strange cases worldwide and organizations responsible for handling them. The Onmyoji from Sang Country, Spirit dia across the ocean, and our Xuann here have been around for a long ti, growing into organizations dedicated to handling those bizarre cases. But the number and prowess of Spirit dia across the ocean are lacking, so they rank lower and usually listen to decisions and arrangents from the Onmyoji and Xuann Association.”
