ALL NOVEL Chapter 56
Chapter 56: Helpful, Kind, Double Sword Duo
Expert!
An ultimate expert!
‘I’ve lived for three thousand years, for thirty lifetimes. This is the coolest expert I’ve ever heard of!
‘It’s pure luck encountering someone like that. If I could ally with him, it would be a blessing from the Heavens!
‘Awesome, I would be rich and successful!’ the old man thought to himself while blushing from excitement.
“Right. You said the expert requested something?” The old man looked at Qin Manyun.
Qin Manyun nodded, “Master, the place is constantly surrounded by cultivators because of the Nine-Tailed Fox. It’s bothering the expert.”
Bam!
The old Master smashed a rock next to him into bits. He said angrily, “How dare they! They must have a deathwish!”
He looked at Qin Manyun and asked anxiously, “Why are you only telling me this now? Something so important should be dealt with immediately. It should be your priority! Gather the Linxian Palace forces now. We must help the expert solve this issue!”
“Did he assign you anything else?” the old Master asked. He sounded excited.
An assignment from an expert was not considered a job. It was considered pure bliss because it was a great chance to impress him!
Qin Manyun bit her lip and said embarrassingly, “Master, the expert loved the Thousand-Year Black Ice. I promised him that I’d provide enough black ice for him…”
“Haha! Wow, haha!”
The old man was not angry at her and was laughing instead. He was overjoyed.
“Good, that’s good!”
His face was red from laughing so hard. “The Thousand-Year Black Ice reminded the expert of his hometown. The feeling of nostalgia is better than any rare artifacts! I think the expert wouldn’t like any gifts, even if it was an Immortal Item. But who knew he’d like our Thousand-Year Black Ice! This is God’s blessing on the Linxian Palace!”
Then, he explained to Qin Manyun. “My student, you’re not wise enough. You didn’t realize the full meaning of the expert’s hints. We’re going to carry our entire stock of Thousand-Year Black Ice to him!”
Thousand-Year Black Ice was not an issue. He would have given away the Linxian Palace if the expert asked.
“Master, I understand.” Qin Manyun looked like she learned a lesson.
The old man nodded and exited the stone room. “This shouldn’t be delayed any further. Hurry up and help the expert with the problem instantly!”
…
In the air above the Ganlong Immortal Dynasty.
Countless cultivators flew by as if they were teleporting. They looked at each other and frowned.
What was going on? They had searched for a long time but still could not locate any sign of the Nine-Tailed Fox.
This could not be. The Nine-Tailed fox ran into a natural tribulation. Even if she survived, she would have been badly injured. Where could she possibly hide?
Suddenly, a bright beam of light flew towards them at high speed.
“It’s Sect Master Bai!”
“Sect Master Bai, have you seen any sign of the Nine-Tailed Fox?”
Bai Wuchen had a cold expression. He flew by with an expensive sword in hand, sharp and shiny. He looked as if he was floating like a God, like a cool, indifferent swordsman.
He was famously known for reaching Out of Aperture. He helped them look for the Nine-Tailed Fox, too. He gained popularity and fame so most people knew who he was.
Everyone smiled at Bai Wuchen. They thought to themselves, ‘Sect Master Bai’s such a nice fellow. Not only was he helpful with the search, but he would also share his information with everyone. He would tell everyone where he searched to no avail, and which location the Nine-Tailed Fox could be at. How kind and helpful.’
Sword cultivators were faster than most cultivators. Bai Wuchen had a positive attitude and his kindness was very helpful for everyone.
It was hard to find someone helpful and kind in the cultivator realm. What a breath of fresh air.
Anyone who had information of the Nine-Tailed Fox would have probably kept it to themselves. They would be quiet about it so they could keep all the profits. It was hard to find someone so selfless.
Aside from Sect Master Bai, there was another sword cultivator who was also selfless named Zhao Shanhe. Although he was with age, he was the rare type that would volunteer to fight at the frontlines.
The two of them were known as the Double Sword Duo. People loved them.
Bai Wuchen nodded at everyone indifferently, then said, “Everyone, there are signs of the Nine-Tailed Fox in about a hundred miles from here in the Southwest direction. This time, it’s reliable information. I’ll cut to the chase, let’s roll!”
“Will the Nine-Tailed Fox finally be found?”
“Thank you, Sect Master Bai, for the provided information. Please, visit Biyou Palace anytime you like.”
“Sect Master Bai’s willing to share such priceless information like that. You’re making me sweat. I won’t ever forget about what you did today.”
Bai Wuchen was expressionless. He had the aura of a true Sect Master. “You’re all too kind, comrades. We should hurry up and go.”
Everyone headed Southwest in a blink of an eye.
Meanwhile, Zhao Shanhe was traveling with his sword, too. He exclaimed, “The Nine-Tailed Fox has appeared. I can feel my luck. Everyone, follow me!”
He was with another bunch of cultivators.
Suddenly, there were a lot of cultivators in the same area in the Ganlong Immortal Dynasty.
However, they were too late.
They heard an old prestigious voice.
“Nine-Tailed Fox, where are you? Show yourself now!”
Splash!
Suddenly, a powerful force covered the area. The wind stopped blowing and the clouds stopped moving!
Everyone looked up and saw an old figure levitating and looking down on everyone.
“That’s the Sect Master of the Linxian Palace, Yao Mengji!”
“Master Mengji showed up? It’s over for us! Who could compete with him?”
Squeak!
A white fox squeaked anxiously as a colored-cloud lifted it in the air.
The fox was trapped by some sort of power, frantically wagging its nine tails to no avail.
Soon, the fox was dragged toward Master Mengji. Then, they disappeared.
It was peaceful again.
Everyone witnessed Master Mengji take the Nine-Tailed Fox, but nobody dared to stop him.
Sigh. They were no match for him. It was not meant to be.
Bai Wuchen looked at the sky and cursed, “Damn it! My Nine-Tailed Fox just got captured like that? What a waste of time.”
His aura destroyed the plants around him. He was angry.
Everyone comforted him.
“Sect Master Bai, relax. We can’t offend the Sect Master of the Linxian Palace.”
“Yeah, it’s just a Nine-Tailed Fox. Forget about it.”
“We’ll remember all that you’ve done for us today, Sect Master Bai.”
Bai Wuchen worked so hard to no avail. Everyone pitied him.
Bai Wuchen shook his head and said in exasperation, “Fine, I’m out of here!”
He raised his sword and disappeared in a blink of an eye.
Zhao Shanhe sighed loudly. He then waved at everyone. “Let’s go. Show’s over.”
He left, too.
The rest of the cultivators looked at each other. They came here for the Nine-Tailed Fox, but that goal was no longer achievable. They all then left the area without hesitation.
