When Xia Chichi said that the red dress was tacky, of course she was just saying bad things to him because of her love rival's opinion. In fact, Yue Hongling's red dress was dashing and generous, and the red sacrificial robes of Suzaku and Yihuo Snake were also enchanting and mysterious. Not only were they not tacky, they were also very good-looking.
But this outfit is really tacky. If it was a wedding dress, it would be fine. But how can a casual dress that is obviously not a wedding dress be made to look like a wedding dress? Xia Chichi has no idea where Venerable Suzaku got this thing from. If she wears it outside, won’t the followers laugh to death
The Venerable is getting old, what kind of aesthetic is this...
Xia Chichi took a bath pitifully, put on the red heart-shaped clothes bought by her master, and thanked her.
While eating, Zhuque took small bites of rice and glanced at his disciple whenever he wanted: "Not bad, not bad. Chi Chi looks pretty in her little red dress."
Xia Chichi smiled apologetically: "Your Excellency has good taste."
Seeing her wearing clothes she doesn't like with a wronged look on her face and yet still thanking me, it feels good, but not the best.
It's not Yin and Yang who say she is beautiful. I didn't expect Xia Chi Chi to look so good even in such rustic clothes... Even the followers like Liu Tuzhang were just a little surprised when they saw it, because the saint usually doesn't wear red, but they didn't feel anything else.
Zhuque didn't know the words "buyer's show" and "seller's show". Beautiful people are clothes racks. Any messy outfit will look good on her, but not on others. The expected effect was not achieved, and it was not that satisfying.
Instead, I felt a little sour.
The little bitch is really pretty. Her youthful vigor alone is enough to make people jealous. No wonder he likes her so much.
I’m old... I’m twenty-nine this year, and the thought of crossing the thirty line makes women shudder.
He was right. I really hadn't lived for myself in this life. My youth was gone in a blink of an eye, and I hadn't even tasted that kind of thing.
Suzaku's mind unconsciously recalled the lingering feelings of last night, his domineering invasion of her body, and her whole body was filled with...
"Your Excellency, Your Excellency?" Xia Chichi's cautious voice sounded from the other side.
Zhuque came back to his senses and looked at the little bitch across the table with murderous eyes: "What's the matter?"
"I, I'm done eating, I'm going to copy the scriptures."
"Hmm." Zhuque collected his thoughts and sighed: "Chichi..."
"ah… "
"If you open the second secret treasure, I will no longer prohibit your emotions."
Xia Chichi was stunned for a moment, then ecstatic: "Really?"
Although she had made a soft-hearted decision, Zhuque was upset again when he saw her ecstatic look. He said with a straight face, "When you are able to suppress everyone, the rules of the sect can be changed for you. But before that, you must put aside all distractions. The second secret is much more difficult than the first, and you can't peek into it in your current state."
Xia Chichi stood at attention and saluted: "Don't worry, Your Excellency. I will definitely achieve it!"
Zhuque glanced at her for a long while, then slowly said, "Look at your attitude of being happy when hearing about men. Do you think I can't lift the knife anymore? Go ahead, and copy twice as many scriptures tonight."
Xia Chichi: “…”
… …
It was unknown how long Xia Chichi's miserable life would last, where even when she was eating, she would be bullied by others. Over there, Zhao Changhe went to find Chen Yi to tell him about the secret realm, and then went back to practice for the whole day.
What Ying Wu wanted was the secret space itself, which would not conflict with anyone. Why would anyone want that thing? It was really a matter of getting along and making money. He could do business with anyone. Local tyrants like Yuxu Zhenren and Ye Wuzong would not argue with Ying Wu, so he did not need to ask. So the first cooperation with Ying Wu was a complete success. He gave him the clue of the Dragon Elephant Blood Ginseng, and he gave him the secret space when he found it. Everyone was happy.
Ying Wu’s people are also reliable. If Chen Yi hadn’t reminded me, I might not have been able to see that Tian Lingzi was a good-for-nothing.
Once there is a first time, there will be a second time. The first cooperation was so pleasant that Zhao Changhe was also looking forward to what clues worth exploring could be given by Ying Wu next time.
That’s a story for later. Anyway, just do your own thing now.
Ever since Ye Wuzong taught him the Crane Controlling Technique, Zhao Changhe had simply learned it, purely for the convenience of using the storage ring. When Ye Wuzong taught him the technique, he reminded him that "the technique itself is more important." It's not that he didn't understand this principle, he just didn't have the time.
After getting the Crane Controlling Skill, he immediately started playing the thief game, went straight to Kungang, escaped into the secret realm, broke through the ninth level, and after coming out, he was entangled in men and women until now, and had no time to do anything. The current Crane Controlling Skill is only convenient for catching huge dragon birds, but if it is a small object, it may not be able to be caught accurately with the current level of Crane Controlling Skill.
Chi Chi said that we shouldn't spend too much time here, and that was right. If we were like this, what's the point of practicing martial arts? Including Zhuque, countless seniors said that we shouldn't get entangled in love, and that was basically the truth from those who had experienced it.
It's not just that he didn't practice the Crane Controlling Skill. In fact, when he got the ring, there was a sword and a book inside that he couldn't take out. He was waiting to take them out and study them after he learned the Crane Controlling Skill. As a result, he learned the Crane Controlling Skill, but he has never even looked at the things in the ring.
Now that his spirit was stronger and more subtle than before, he could see the space inside the ring more clearly and in detail. He could see that the interior was in an independent vacuum state, and everything was floating in the air. The dragon bird was floating in the middle, proudly occupying the center position. He was originally worried that it would fight with the sword, but now it seemed that it didn't even bother to care about the sword.
Of course I was too lazy to care. Only after careful inspection did I realize that it was not a complete sword, but a half-forged sword blank.
He used the Crane Control Technique to carefully push aside the huge dragon bird in the C position. The true Qi continued to move downward like a substance. He could clearly feel the true Qi extending like an arm, but it could not be as dexterous as his own hands. It was extremely rough and consumed a lot of energy.
I had never thought about even the idea of using this technique before... This is indeed a technique that requires repeated practice to be able to truly master it, and it has endless uses in actual combat.
Zhao Changhe even had a vague feeling that this might be the prerequisite for sword-wielding skills
I'll think about it slowly when I have time... Zhao Changhe carefully controlled his Qi to wrap around the sword blank and quickly absorbed it into the ring. He actually felt that his Qi was almost gone in just a short while. This was just a straight-forward absorption. What if he wanted to manipulate some movements
Zhao Changhe shook his head and looked at the sword blank carefully.
Since the sword blank had not been completed at all, there would naturally be no carved textures, let alone any spirituality that could trigger the Dragon Bird's arrogance. However, Zhao Changhe still quickly noticed its casting foundation. The meaning of the stars in the sky was implied in it, which had laid the foundation for the sword's intent.
This ring is preciously enshrined on the altar in the Xuanwu Secret Realm. It is natural that the things inside it represent the stars. It is very likely that it is the sword that Xuanwu made for himself in the last era, but before it could take shape, it encountered the catastrophe of the collapse of the era
I don't know if it's necessary to give this to the Four Symbols Sect. I don't think it makes much sense. After all, it's just a sword blank. I don't know how many processes are needed to cast it. People in the world today may not have the ancient casting method and the ability to complete it. Besides, Turtle has already taken the Ancient Sword Dragon King... I'll talk about it when I have the chance. Let's put it aside for now.
Zhao Changhe threw the sword blank back into the ring and continued to take out the book that looked like a secret book.
I originally thought it was another secret book related to Xuanwu, but upon closer inspection it turned out not to be, not even a secret book.
This is actually a map book called "Atlas of Mountains and Rivers".
Opening the book, every page was a record of strange mountains and rivers, exotic beasts and treasures, and almost all of them had never been seen in this world. No one knew where most of the mountains and rivers corresponded to, and no one knew what the exotic beasts corresponded to. The only familiar thing was the Dragon Elephant Blood Ginseng, which was recorded as coming from Kunlun.
Zhao Changhe's first reaction was that it was an alien version of "Classic of Mountains and Seas"...
However, the "Classic of Mountains and Seas" cannot be verified, but the "Map of Mountains and Rivers" here may be the real geography and products of the last era.
His eyes fell on one of the pages, on which it was written: "The Shiwan Mountains are where the Gu tribe lives. They call themselves a spiritual tribe, and use witchcraft as their magic to hunt down living creatures of flesh and blood. Their rules are inexplicable, strange and hard to guard against, and have a sense of origin, which is somewhat impressive. The customs are very different from those in the Middle Earth. If a man and a woman fall in love, they will use the Gu of the same heart. If one party changes his heart, he will die miserably."
