Capítulo 1473: Chapter 1478: The Old Con Artist
The noise outside the temple imdiately caught the attention of Ge Xin and the others.
Not long after, Xia Liu and the other three appeared at the door.
To their surprise, they saw Lin Jie leading soone in.
When they saw the strong person Lin Jie talked about, both Ge Xin and Xia Liu were dumbfounded.
The person looked like he was in his seventies or eighties, with a goatee.
A head full of disheveled white hair, and his face was etched with the marks of ti.
His clothes were patched and nded beyond asure.
Was this the strong individual Lin Jie ntioned? Ge Xin couldn’t believe it.
“Old brother, what exactly are you doing?”
Lin Yi couldn’t stand it any longer; her brother had run around all night, only to bring back a beggar?
So embarrassing, truly a disgrace to the Lin Family…
“What kind of looks are those? All of you, restrain yourselves! This man is a top-tier cultivator from the central area of the Southern Region!”
Lin Jie was very displeased; he had painstakingly invited a strong person here and couldn’t afford to fail just due to a few glances.
“Big brother, take a closer look; this strong person doesn’t even have decent clothes!”
Lin Yi transmitted this through divine consciousness.
“Lin Yi, listen to
introduce him first.”
After using divine consciousness to communicate, Lin Jie introduced to everyone: “Let
introduce, this elder is Venerable Wutian from the central area of the Southern Region.”
“How impressive!”
“Greetings, elder!”
“Greetings, elder…”
Ge Xin, Lin Yi, and Yun Ruolan clapped and spoke with a sarcastic tone.
Xia Liu just smiled without saying a word.
Although this old beggar occasionally exuded a powerful aura, he felt sothing was off, as if that aura didn’t belong to him.
As for the reason, Xia Liu was still investigating.
“Ahem, greetings to you young friends.”
“Venerable Wutian, let
introduce, this is Ge Xin, the captain of the Dragon-Slaying rcenary Team, and this is…”
After several rounds of introductions, Lin Jie’s gaze fell on Xia Liu: “And who is this?”
“Hello, I’m a new mber of the team…”
“Stop, stop, a newcor, understood. Venerable Wutian, we’re counting on you this ti.”
Without giving Xia Liu a chance to speak, Lin Jie bowed sincerely to the old beggar.
“Haha, no problem, I’ll take responsibility for this trip.”
The old beggar laughed heartily, his words filled with confidence.
Just as Ge Xin wanted to say sothing, he suddenly sensed an astonishing aura emanating from the old beggar.
“Hmm! Truly a top-tier strong person!”
Ge Xin had only felt such an intense aura from a Qi Cultivation Stage cultivator at level fifteen.
He never expected the old beggar truly possessed the cultivation of Qi Cultivation Stage level fifteen!
Lin Yi and Yun Ruolan noticed it too, and the expressions on the three of them changed.
“Elder, please co inside for so tea.”
Ge Xin said politely.
“Good, after drinking all night, my mouth is a bit dry.”
The old beggar said casually.
After sensing the old beggar’s aura, Ge Xin and the others treated him exceptionally well.
Because for this sea voyage, they needed his protection.
No one dared to be disrespectful.
Having left the old beggar and everyone at the base, as the captain, Ge Xin went to the rcenary Guild to get a map.
About an ancient hour later, Ge Xin returned with a scroll.
“Venerable Wutian, my fellow brothers, I’ve got the map. Let’s head to the dock now.”
With Ge Xin leading, they quickly arrived at the dock.
At this mont, the dock was bustling with activity.
Many large ships had already set sail.
There were symbols on those sails.
Symbols belonging to various rcenary teams.
Ge Xin and his companions boarded a ship that was only twenty ters in size.
“Venerable Wutian, the Dragon-Slaying rcenary Team was just newly established, so the equipnt is a bit basic. Please don’t mind.”
Ge Xin smiled awkwardly.
At the ti, purchasing this ship and registering the rcenary corps had exhausted all the money he brought from ho.
If they couldn’t earn money from tasks, it would be tragic.
“As long as there’s wine and at, what does it matter if the equipnt is basic.”
Venerable Wutian squinted his eyes and smiled.
“Hehe, thank you for your understanding, Venerable One, let’s set sail!”
Ge Xin breathed a sigh of relief.
Thankfully, Lin Jie had prepared enough wine and at for about a month; otherwise, it would have been awkward.
This Venerable Wutian is indeed extraordinary, a Qi Cultivation Stage fifteen master with such a keen interest in food, very unusual.
“Everyone stand firm, the Dragon-Slaying is setting sail!”
As Spiritual Energy was infused into the power chamber, the ship imdiately moved towards the vast blue sea.
Xia Liu used his Divine Sense to scan the ship, but he couldn’t see through the power chamber.
The ability to generate power with a bit of Spiritual Energy, Kunwu Realm is truly full of talents.
Not dwelling on those thoughts, Xia Liu took the map Ge Xin got from the rcenary Guild.
According to the map’s guide, it would take at least ten days to reach the possible location of the Nether Sun Shark.
However, the markings on the map were very clear, so sharp eyes wouldn’t mistake the direction.
Ten days it is.
Ti flew by, and eight days passed; sea voyages were always lonely and isolating.
But Venerable Wutian seed to truly enjoy it.
He had four als a day, eating on ti, his mouth oily and grimy.
Afterwards, he drank alcohol, his face always reflecting satisfaction.
Sotis, Ge Xin and the others even doubted whether this old fellow was indeed a Qi Cultivation Stage fifteen cultivator.
But the aura emanating from him was irrefutable.
On this day, Venerable Wutian was in great spirits, the sea breeze in his face made him very happy.
So he talked about a topic that interested all cultivators in the Southeast Region.
“Venerable Wutian! The mysterious person you spoke of, just how powerful are they?”
“Little one, let
put it this way, when that powerful figure was destroying the Beast Taming Sect, I was right there on the side, and the pure and sacred power they unleashed pushed
back fifty miles.”
…
Xia Liu leaned against a wooden railing, and upon hearing Venerable Wutian’s words, he imdiately understood.
This old fellow was a fraud!
As for the Qi Cultivation Stage fifteen aura emanating from his body, it flowed out from a brocade pouch on his chest.
Who knows where he got that treasure to fool people with, how satisfying it must be.
After observing for so many days, Xia Liu finally dared to be certain.
This old beggar, who knew where he learned about his deeds in the Southeast Region, but he told the tales in an impressive way.
“Elder! Tell us more!”
“Elder, tell us about the recent scandal caused by the Foundation Establishnt Pill Recipe.”
Having heard the story of the mysterious figure destroying the Beast Taming Sect, Lin Yi, Yun Ruolan, Ge Xin, and Lin Jie were all excited and eager to learn about recent major events.
“The disaster caused by that Pill Recipe is even more terrifying!”
The old beggar took a sip of strong liquor and continued: “On the day of the auction, the mysterious figure who destroyed the Beast Taming Sect offered the highest bid to buy the Pill Recipe, only to be intercepted by the Heavenly Spirit Hermit and two other strong cultivators who wanted to kill him and seize the treasure.”
“And guess what happened?”
