I Fabricated the Techniques, but my disciple really mastered them? - Chapter 325

Chapter 325: Chapter 191 Li Xuan’s Expectation, the Purpose of the Woman in Purple_2
 

Hu Shan’s expression froze for a moment before he wore a mournful look and said, “It’s all because of you. There’s a woman who insisted on finding you, worried I wouldn’t bring you to her. She stabbed a hairpin into my shoulder and said it was a gift for you…”

Meng Chong’s gaze sharpened as he asked, “What happened?”

“I don’t know either. This hairpin is no ordinary item. If taken down hastily, it will cause severe injury.”

Hu Shan sighed continuously, relaying the events precisely as they had occurred.

“Let’s go, take me to her, and let’s see if she’s tired of living!”

Meng Chong said with a sinister laugh.

“But this hairpin…”

Hu Shan pointed at the hairpin stuck in his shoulder with a pained expression.

“This hairpin is indeed unusual.”

Meng Chong frowned; the hairpin was clearly the other party’s weapon and made of no ordinary material. If someone inexperienced tried to remove it, the hairpin could explode in an instant, causing severe injury.

He touched his head and said, “I’m not skilled in this kind of clever Dharma. We could either ask my eldest senior brother or my master.”

Hu Shan’s face immediately fell as he said, “Young Master Xu is contemplating the Sword Dao. I wouldn’t dare to disturb him. As for the senior…”

He wouldn’t dare to bother the senior over such a trivial matter!

Before he could finish speaking, a surge of power entered his shoulder and forced the hairpin out.

“Thank you, senior!”

Hu Shan was overjoyed.

Li Xuan took the hairpin in his hand, inspecting it and could not help but admire the exceptional craftsmanship of the hairpin.

The hairpin was not made in one piece, but was a combination, seemingly integral but containing an ingenious mechanism that stored a burst of force within when struck.

If forcefully pulled out, the contained force within the hairpin would erupt instantly, inflicting heavy injury.

The material used for the hairpin was extraordinary, capable of containing True Qi and True Yuan within it.

Of course, clever as the hairpin was, it was fairly easy to remove in the presence of absolute power.

Li Xuan wrapped it with his True Yuan, suppressing the force within the hairpin, preventing it from exploding, and smoothly took it out.

“This is a nice piece, take it.”

Li Xuan tossed the hairpin to Meng Chong.

“Master, it’s not suitable for a big man like me to use this hairpin. It’s better for my younger martial sister.”

Meng Chong accepted the hairpin with disdain.

“Make your decision after you’ve met the person.”

Li Xuan smiled, wondering what that woman who gave Meng Chong the hairpin meant by that.

Could it be that she had taken a fancy to Meng Chong?

“Alright!”

Meng Chong nodded and left the ship with Hu Shan.

Canglan Island was bustling with life.

Xu Yan had also finished his contemplation of the Sword Dao, leaving Li Xuan delighted upon seeing him.

“Has Xu Yan been perceiving a new Sword Intent? And, this Sword Intent seems somewhat extraordinary!”

Although Xu Yan had not fully grasped the Sword Intent yet, he had indeed made some gains, his aura swirling faintly with a breeze-like charm, which Li Xuan could not miss.

“It won’t be long before I can reap a new Sword Intent.”

Li Xuan awaited eagerly.

He met Peng Yuan and several Martial Arts Scholars, showing a peculiar look on his face. These men, under their panda-like appearances with dark circles under their eyes, revealed an utter dedication to the Martial Arts, their focus plain to see and easier to manipulate.

Li Xuan mused internally.

These individuals all possessed the strength above that of a Grandmaster, especially Peng Yuan, who was a peak Great Grandmaster. To still have such dark circles meant they must have been developed over years of weakness.

Those marks couldn’t be removed anymore.

Evergreen Pavilion had moved to Canglan Island. After encountering pills, Peng Yuan and the Martial Arts Scholars nearly went mad, obsequiously smiling every day, following Su Lingxiu diligently, eagerly running errands, volunteering for any work.

Their goal was to learn a bit of Alchemy, to delve into its profound mysteries.

The Inner Domain Martial Artists resumed their study of the Great Wilderness Martial Arts Techniques, and Su Lingxiu, after dissecting the corpses of warriors from Yinlou Pavilion, gained a deeper understanding of the Inner Domain Martial Artists.

The bridge of the Great Wilderness warriors’ Domain, how to replicate it, after some research, she finally made progress.

Su Lingxiu devised a pill to assist in refining the meridians into the Domain Bridge, and although it was only a pseudo-Domain Bridge, it allowed Inner Domain Martial Artists to truly convert to practicing Great Wilderness Martial Arts.

Moreover, the method of conversion was held by Evergreen Pavilion; without these pills, it was impossible to refine meridians into the Domain Bridge.

Thus, Evergreen Pavilion’s status in the Great Wilderness was naturally unshakeable.

However, every advantage comes with its disadvantages — the downside was that many powerful beings, in order to convert to Great Wilderness Martial Arts, set their sights on Evergreen Pavilion, intent on forcing the pavilion to reveal the pill recipe, even the method of pill refinement.

Of course, this so-called disadvantage became trivial in the face of absolute strength.

Meng Chong, who had left with Hu Shan for a few days, finally returned.

By his side was a woman dressed in purple.

With a face full of admiration, she looked at Meng Chong, leaving Li Xuan completely dumbfounded.

A female simp?

Meng Chong never expected that he, a crude bald hulk, would also have an admirer.

“How about one million Spirit Crystals, Meng Chong?”

The woman in purple spoke.

“I don’t need money right now!”

Meng Chong waved his hand.

“Two million Spirit Crystals!”

The woman in purple continued to raise the price.

Meng Chong was somewhat tempted, but eventually shook his head, “Go away, I’m busy!”

Now, the Evergreen Pavilion really wasn’t short on Spirit Crystals, so he naturally wouldn’t accept the woman in purple’s employment.

“What’s going on, Hu Shan?”

Xie Lingfeng curiously pulled Hu Shan to the side and asked.

Xu Yan and the others also came over, sensing that the woman in purple wasn’t quite right.

“She wants to hire Meng Chong to escort her to a place, but Meng Chong didn’t agree.”

Hu Shan also had an odd look on his face.

It reminded Xu Yan of the time when he first entered the Inner Domain and accepted Du Yuying’s employment, earning his first batch of Spirit Crystals.

Meanwhile, the woman in purple continued to raise the offer, “Three million Spirit Crystals!”

Xu Yan and the others were astonished; this woman was really wealthy!

Three million Spirit Crystals, and she didn’t even blink.

“I told you, I’m not accepting any employment!”

Meng Chong frowned and with a swift motion of his large hand, he grabbed the woman’s shoulder and leaped into the air, flinging the woman in purple away.

However, it wasn’t long before the woman in purple ran back, her face flushed with excitement.

“Meng Chong, you’re so fierce!”

Meng Chong furrowed his brows, “If you don’t leave, don’t blame me if I punch you to death!”

“I won’t go. Just accept my employment. That place is a treasure site. Although it’s a bit dangerous, with your strength, you can definitely break through.”

The woman in purple was persistent.

Meng Chong rubbed his head, irritated, “If you want me to agree, Spirit Crystals won’t do. Unless you give me a Storage Bag, otherwise, I won’t agree.”

A Storage Bag, considered a real Supreme Treasure of the Inner Domain. Meng Shushu had not yet managed to buy one for him up to now.

He thought for sure that the woman in purple couldn’t produce one.

However, to his surprise, the woman in purple gleefully said, “No problem.”

And indeed, she actually took out a small bag from her bosom.

The gray little bag looked like a toad.

Meng Chong was stunned. She was really willing to give up a Storage Bag just to hire him?

His eyes fell on the Storage Bag and couldn’t help but be tempted, but was there a conspiracy in the woman’s singular desire to hire him?

He hesitated.

“Here, take it. Now you can accept my employment, right?”

The woman in purple directly stuffed the Storage Bag into Meng Chong’s hand.

“Why must you hire me?”

Meng Chong took a deep breath and spoke with a serious expression.

“Because I like you!”

The woman in purple said, her face blushing.

Meng Chong scratched his bald head, looking a bit dumbfounded, “Is that the reason?”

“Besides, you’re very strong, especially your physical defense. You can give me a sense of security. You’re the most suitable person to go to that place.”

The woman in purple spoke earnestly.

“I’ll think about it!”

Meng Chong looked at the Storage Bag in his hand, very tempted.

Yet, with the other party’s intentions unclear and the place she mentioned potentially being very dangerous…

“That place isn’t too dangerous; with your strength, you can definitely stride through it. Come on, agree to it.”

The woman in purple looked at him with puppy-dog eyes.

Meng Chong looked at his master, then at his senior brother, seeking their opinions.

Xu Yan spoke up, “Who are you?”

The woman in purple looked around at everyone, thought for a moment, and said, “My name is Zi Yun.”

Upon hearing this, both Xie Lingfeng and Hu Shan’s eyes widened in shock.
