Chapter 328: Chapter 330 Immortal Seekers [4/7]
No matter what this dog is, if I can obtain it, there will definitely be benefits. Lord of the Four Seas... this position should belong to ! Ever since ancient tis, the throne has belonged to the one capable of claiming it.
At this thought, the Sword Emperor’s heart surged with excitent. He boarded the ship, followed by other people of the Jianghu who wished to be his vassals. They too boarded the ship as it set off for its destination: Yang City.
「...」
Wu Tian, having observed the stars that night, was already aware of the situation in Yang City. If the Sword Emperor dares to co to Yang City, then he will die in Yang City. As for those employees... I do not consent to their deaths, so how can they possibly die? If I were the man I once was, reviving a single person would be no issue. I am not the sa as I was, yet as long as they haven’t been dead for a day, I can still bring them back to life.
「On Mount Yunng, the sword competition was suspended.」
Chen iling said she needed to rest early to catch a plane first thing in the morning for a concert where she was a special guest. Wu Tian was also preparing to leave. He held the little one and went to bid farewell to Yue’er.
Yue’er, however, clung to Wu Tian’s arm, unwilling to let go. "Brother, our parents are gone. Can... can I co with you?" she asked.
She was only seventeen, a young girl. Wu Tian was indeed worried about leaving her alone on Mount Yunng, so he nodded in agreent. Yue’er jumped for joy.
「anwhile, in another room on Mount Yunng」
Cui Tian was preparing to rest when Wang Renjie called out to him. "Are you asleep? If not, could you please co outside and talk with ?"
Cui Tian imdiately agreed. Mount Yunng was filled with ancient charm, its architecture wholly traditional. Though elegant, it isn’t really my style. Without a TV or movies to watch, I can’t sleep. He followed Wang Renjie outside. "Did you need
for sothing?" he asked, confused.
"I... I am the real Wang Renjie," Wang Renjie said imdiately.
Cui Tian froze. I already heard from Wu Tian that this guy is Wang Renjie. Why is he repeating his own na? Seeing Cui Tian’s expression, Wang Renjie thought he wasn’t believed. He imdiately took out his ID and showed it to Cui Tian with a serious face. "See this clearly? ! I’m the real Wang Renjie! You know the other guy is an impostor. He’s a fake!"
Chen iling is leaving first thing in the morning. Tonight is the ti to make things clear to Cui Tian. I have to tell him that Wu Tian is the one impersonating .
Cui Tian had a vague idea of what was happening but still said with a playful smile, "Go on."
"Here’s what happened. You ca to the airport to help us because Boss Ren called you, right? I assu Boss Ren asked you to help Wang Renjie? Well, I’m the real Wang Renjie..."
As he spoke, Wu Tian had already arrived, holding the little one with Yue’er trailing behind him. They stood quietly to the side. For so reason, Sword Master Gan Jiang and Sword Master Mo Ye had also reappeared in the sa spot.
After Wang Renjie finished his long-winded explanation of the so-called truth, he took a deep breath to calm himself. He looked seriously at Cui Tian and asked, "Do... do you understand?"
The next mont, Cui Tian’s straight face broke. "HAHAHAHA! Are you trying to kill
with laughter?"
"..." Wang Renjie still had no idea what Cui Tian ant.
"Co with ." Cui Tian grabbed Wang Renjie. Though puzzled, Wang Renjie still followed him. After he was led away, Wang Renjie was never seen in this world again.
Silence fell over the courtyard on Mount Yunng. After a mont, Sword Master Gan Jiang burst into laughter. "That’s hilarious! I could die laughing! What was that guy’s na? He really taught
the aning of losing face." The reason Wang Renjie hadn’t noticed Wu Tian’s arrival was that he had been completely focused on talking to Cui Tian.
"Mr. Wu Tian, last ti we didn’t know who you were, but we do now," Sword Master Gan Jiang chuckled. "Actually, my junior martial sister and I ’crawled out’ this ti specifically to find talented and promising individuals. You are one of the two people we’ve selected. As such, we have sothing we’d like to give you."
"What are you giving my dad? He doesn’t want any junk," the little one in Wu Tian’s arms piped up, their eyes bright. I hope it’s a powerful toy.
To other children, toys were divided into ’fun’ and ’not fun’. To the little one, they were divided into ’powerful’ and ’not powerful’.
"Don’t worry, it’s sothing good." As a woman, Sword Master Mo Ye took an imdiate liking to the little one and produced an item.
It was a talisman. The object imdiately brought Taoists to mind, as they were known for drawing such talismans. This one bore characters that were unintelligible to Wu Tian and the others. It appeared crudely made at first glance, but closer inspection revealed hidden intricacies. It also seed to emanate a strange fluctuation of energy.
"A Cultivator?" Wu Tian asked, his brow furrowed slightly. Is the Martial Arts World just the surface layer of this city? Does a Cultivation Realm exist as well?
"No, no, no, you’re mistaken. Cultivators? That’s just sothing you read about in novels," Sword Master Gan Jiang laughed. "We are Immortal Seekers."
Sword Master Mo Ye nodded, simultaneously placing the talisman in Wu Tian’s hand. The talisman possessed a certain kind of power. It was the sa type of power Wu Dao used after consuming an elixir: Yuan Force. This Yuan Force was superior to Inner Strength, but it paled in comparison to Spiritual Power. The difference in quality was as vast as the distance between heaven and earth.
"Tell , what is an Immortal Seeker?" Wu Tian asked coolly. Immortal Seekers? It sounds quite similar to Cultivators.
"Alright." Both Sword Master Mo Ye and Sword Master Gan Jiang nodded. They had returned to Mount Yunng tonight because their master had tasked them with asking a favor of Wu Tian. Their strategy was to first present a gift. Once he accepted, a connection would be established, which they believed would make it much easier to ask for his help.
Sword Master Gan Jiang then began to explain what Immortal Seekers were. Their origins, he said, stretched far back in ti.
"Legend has it that Emperor Huang, Xuanyuan, was taught by Guang Chengzi and subsequently beca unrivaled in the world. Afterwards, the emperors Yao, Shun, and Yu all dispatched n to search for Guang Chengzi. Because Xuanyuan left behind no tomb, only a cenotaph, many began to wonder if Emperor Huang had ascended to immortality. In the ages that followed, many emperors pursued traces of these immortals, including Qin Shi Huang and Emperor Wu of Han. The Immortal Seekers were born from this unending quest. They have yet to find an immortal, but they continue their search to this day. Along the way, however, they discovered certain marvels. This led to the developnt of Yuan Force and thods for its cultivation."
A slight smile touched Wu Tian’s lips. Yuan Force? I wonder what the cultivation realms of Yuan Force are like. Interesting, truly interesting. He had heard them very clearly. Sword Master Gan Jiang and Sword Master Mo Ye had ntioned ’crawling out’. The way they left that place... was by crawling? So, where exactly is that place?
Wu Tian didn’t use any special ans to find out. His intuition told him that he would find the place on his own eventually.
"Did you co here just to give
this?" Wu Tian asked, cutting straight to the point.
Sword Master Gan Jiang and Sword Master Mo Ye exchanged a look. After a mont of silence, Gan Jiang finally spoke. "We hope you will not make an enemy of the Sword Emperor. We can diate and help you two reconcile. I also promise that from now on, we will each mind our own business."
